    I have heard about this place for a long time. I finally went and I was a little disappointed. The tamales were not the best I've had but they were decent. I bought some of the pineapple pastries, now these are a different story. These were delicious.

    Some people drink green juice for their health, I choose salsa.

    Ohhhhh my tamale!!! So this business comes to a market in my town once a week. I'm so glad it's only once a week and for a few hours because my pants can't take anymore. Never had a bad flavor and the workers are so sweet. The one negative thing is they don't sell chips at the booth so I literally drink the salsa from the container since putting it on the tamale would divert from the deliciousness. Judge, baby judge cause the green salsa is gold! My grandmother has been deceased but she visits me while I drink that salsa only if it's to call me cochino.

    Granny's Tamales use to be good, but slowly had become mediocre. My recent orders were skimpy & lacking the original size and taste.

    This is one excellent restaurant,I've had it several times and have referred it to several times,They have several locations,now they have added rice and beans which he'd very good flavor,I took it home and ate it,but I returned and told them I had no beans just juice ,the employee told me well it wasn't beans it was refried beans,so he told me that's not what was on the menu because to me I had to get the rice in order to eat the beans so I got nothing yesterday but the excellent tamales

The margaritas were off the chain yummy! They were so accommodating I had the chicken mole and my friend wanted pork mole (not on menu). No problem they said... and they delivered! Other friend had cheese Chile relleno... she loved it. Hubby had taco, cheese enchilada, and tamale that were the best. The sauces, the queso and homemade chips were warm and oh so good. Homemade corn tortillas and flour tortillas will make us fly back from Phoenix to indulge in often! Thank you so much for making this experience the best of our trip... my goodness Thank you!

About five minutes before we passed Sabino's, I opened the app and saw the reviews. Great timing! We entered, and there was a customer standing in the front. We asked her if Sabino's was good and she began to rave about their food! She was right! Firstly, the service was extraordinary. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We ordered mixed fajitas for two. Yummy! Hot, seasoned well, and the tortillas...amazing. The guacamole was SO GOOD, I thought about ordering some to take home, but we live two hours away. We have a ton of leftovers, which I'm probably going to break out around midnight. Don't sleep on this place! We'll be back!

We were greeted by the owners who served us. I must say we felt very welcomed. Now let's get to the food we started with queso which was really good. I ordered the chicken and beef fajitas, my husband ordered a burrito that was huge. We both loved our food, full of flavor, seasoned well and cooked perfectly. As we were checking out the owner told us know that your always at home here. That's what we felt like during our visit. We will definitely be back and I'm very picky on food so that's a big statement. I highly recommend if you are in the mood for some good food you try this place out. No, they did not ask me to do a review, i just want this place to stay open so get there now!

We ordered pupusas, barbacoa, and a burrito. The pupusas were AMAZING (we got the kids' one), and they came with rice and beans that were also really good. The barbacoa came with two tortillas and was flavorful without being overly sweet, which I really appreciated since I'm not a fan of sweet barbacoa. My mom had the burrito and felt it could've had more flavor, but overall the food was still solid. The staff was super friendly, the bathrooms were clean and nice, and it was a comfortable spot to grab lunch. Definitely a great place to stop if you're hungry and want a satisfying, casual meal.

Waited about 15 minutes for Freshly made pupusas that come with tasty curtido and salsa, included. ( bean and cheese), and an order of platanos fritos that came with black beans and crema; portions large enough to share. The pupusa is one of the largest I have gotten, and the consistency and flavor were exactly the way I remember them from my time in El Salvador; authentic and delicious. Cost was $20 total, but would easily have fed two, and I have enough leftover for lunch, tomorrow, so a good value, for good food! Don't miss this spot; they have juices, and bottled and canned drinks, too. Will surely be back to enjoy more good food from their menu!
