    Stuffed pepper with beef
    Thomas G.

    This place is worth the trip. Very unique stuffed pepper dish with nuts fruit and a sweet sauce. Good service and reasonably priced beers. Food is pricey but high quality. Friendly service.

    The best Chile en Nogada!

    Came here last night for the Quesadillas de Huitlacoche and Chilie en nogada and it was fantastic. Both so perfectly made and delicious. Would highly recommend.

    This place is incredible. The food is wasn't too salty or greasy, and the drinks were pretty tasty too. The entire restaurant is beautifully decorated. But be prepared to pay by either using cash or zelle.

    Went here on a whim. It was very slow at dinner time. We were one of 3 tables the entire time we were there. The food was ok, the margaritas were not. The portions weren't all that large either. Very disappointing, especially considering the area. The service was friendly though and it was clean inside.

    It's pricey. Food is alright. Not a typical hole in the wall Mexican restaurant. So you should know, I'm Mexican, and a taco should not cost $4 just because they bring it in a nice plate. Bad choice for good quality Mexican food. Good choice if you want to chat it up, have a drink, look at some wall art, and eat mediocre enchiladas while doing it.

    Check out the art in the background...great place for a meal with friends or a romantic dinner.

    OMG 4STAR DINING EXPERIENCE....for a 1.5 star price range...had Steak Enchiladas with creany Poblano Sauce, side choices were great, i had wilted spinach and beans.. Dont forget to ask about the specials, Mojitos were only $3... I dine out a lot, have done so all over the world this food was absolutely delicious, consequently I ate every last bit of it. none left today :( and so will have to go back.... Restaurant not crowded cos of location, straight west - 3437 W. North Ave...parking around no problem. Im very picky, I want a warm restaurant, comfortable seating, not too noisy. It was perfect....Restaurant was warm enough in 20 degree winter, decor fabulous, large pieces of Art all around like a beautiful gallery, staff attentive, polite.Not crowded, quiet enough to have a good conversation, excellent drink selection, it was really a 4Star Restaurant dining and relaxing ambient experience for me. Please go there and have a meal, so it is still there when I go next!

    Sunday night late dinner alacarte exploratory order...

We also were the only people in the restaurant at one point and the service was still very slow. We sat for about ten minutes with our empty plates in front of us before our waitress came to check on us. She was very kind, I just felt maybe a little more attentive could have been nice. I got the cucumber gin cocktail which was the highlight for me! For our food we got the Caesar salad with chicken, the chicken tacos, and the chips and guacamole. You could tell the chips were homemade and were so light and crunchy. I loved that the tacos had bite sized pieces of grilled chicken in them, and they were seasoned so nicely. Overall a nice lunch!

I must admit that I had low expectations because quite frankly, I have not enjoyed Mexican food outside of Mexico or California. However, we were hungry, and it was near where we were staying, so I decided we should check it out, and I am so glad we did! The food was great. Both adults and the VERY picky children in our group all enjoyed our meals. I ordered the green chicken enchiladas and the other adult ordered a chile relleno combo, which I also got to try. Everything was delicious and devoured by all! We were so full but the owner talked us into the chocoflan, and we did not regret trying it. It was soooo good! Speaking of the owner, the service was great. We really enjoyed how he and the rest of the staff were very courteous. It is a small establishment, and it gets a good amount of people, so I assume that there are waits during peak hours. I highly recommend Sabroso! And we plan to return the next time we are in the area.

Located right off the pink line it is very easy to get to and also noted to be near the Mexican art Institute. The chicken mole enchiladas were delicious. Spicy and bitterness of the chocolate balanced super well. rice was also cooked perfectly. The shredded beef dish was short rib and mashed potatoes. They were meant to be assembled into a homemade tortilla - a very interesting concept. The homemade tortillas were so warm and fluffy. I have never had such good tortillas. I took a tamale plate home. It was large and had a good portion of shredded pork. Super flavorful, but also I felt the texture might've been firmer than I would've expected.

It was my first time have queso fundido and i really like its. The staff was really friendly and the place is so cute.

For dinner I got the chicken fajitas, the waiter asked if I wanted just chicken which I though was odd because I ordered the chicken fajitas and I wasn't sure what he meant or if he meant no veggies, it came with veggies luckily. It also came with tortilla, corn, and a side of refried black beans with cojita, and rice. It was all okay. My partner got the lamb mole, it was sweet and savory, not spicy.
