| - If you pass this store front restaurant and decide to give it a pass, you will have made a hugely regrettable mistake. Look for the free off street parking at the end of the building and prepare to be delighted by great and flavorful food that is very inexpensive. Behind that storefront door you'll find new decor and upholstery, a full bar, and a dining room cleaner than your Mama's (even if she was OCD!)
The menu offers a variety of Mexican staples, plus some Central American and Cuban menu items. There are ala carte items as well as dinners, and discounted daily specials. My first visit, I tried almost one of everything from the ala carte menu: papusa, sope, gordita, and soft taco (ALL on homemade HANDMADE corn tortillas. Some items were new to me, names I'd often seen on food truck menus but never tried. My favorites were the gordita al pastor and the alhambre taco.
Believe it or not, I returned the next night and tried the Big Burrito special (steak) for $4.99 and was presented the most artful (Japanese genes sneaked into someone's Hispanic lineage??) and tastefully presented burrito platter I had ever seen (and it tasted better than it looked!). I also ordered the "small" size guacomole for $2.50, expecting a dollop but got an bowl of delicious GUAC and almost had trouble finishing it! (... but avocado lover that I am, I persevered to the end!)
It's a local, family-owned enterprise that deserves your business. And you definitely deserve what they're dishing at Sabor Latino!!
