This place is as authentic as they come. You walk in and you are in the middle of a Hispanic grocery store. Surrounded by fresh breads and pastries. To the left. Is the restaurant. If I don't know better, I would have thought I was in Spain or Mexico. Service was fast and friendly. But... their English is not great. The place was not noisy at all. Only knock, instead of chips and salsa, they serve you Chicharrones De Harina (aka Duritos). Was not a fan. The fajitas and tacos were amazing. Some of the best I have ever had. The tortillas appeared to be corn. I skipped those other than taking a small bite. Highly recommend!! read more

La Sabrosita - Fajitas Supremas - Mexican Near Me - Waynesboro, Virginia

I will start by saying this is a definite hole in the wall vibe. It is connected to a mexican grocery store with a lot of imported snacks and drinks which was very cool. The food was out of this world it actually tasted like someone's abeulita was back there. The queso was smoky and rich, the chicken was tender, and the carnitas were divine. The service was....fine. Pretty much what you'd expect from a place connected to a store. We never got water refills, we had to go up to the counter to remind her we needed to pay, and we initially didn't get our chips and dip. Overall this will not deter us from coming back but we will know going forward the food is the main event, not necessarily the aesthetic or the service. read more

You are thousands of miles away from Mexico, and you have no right to expect anything like an authentic Mexican meal here in Waynesboro, Virginia. Nevertheless, the chicken processing plant down the way, and the promise of work, has lured enough Hispanics to this whitebread haven, to support a shockingly brilliant, an entirely authentic, Mexican experience. The tacos were as legitimate as any you might find in Santa Ana or Los Angeles. Fresh ingredients, properly cooked. And at 4 for $10, you'd be a fool not to order as many of these as you can fit into your face. The local white folks are going to overlook this place; more fools them, because the food here is absolutely stand-out for the region surrounding. read more

Ordered the 4 taco deal, two chicken two steak. The chicken was better than the steak. I also got a side of chips and queso, the chips were stale, the queso wasn't bad but also not that good lol. Probably wouldn't order again tbh. Just my opinion!! read more

Super authentic, super delicious! I never expected to find this gem hidden here in the mountains of Virginia but I'm so glad I did! We're new top the area and will be regulars here. read more

It was surprising to see "menudo" on a menu this far north of the border. Thus, like an ecstatic shark detecting a shipwrecked boater floating helplessly in open waters, I couldn't resist a taste. But I quickly came to the same conclusion as that metaphorical shark: it was no delicious, fatty seal. The broth lacked a distinct flavor and weight. The latter due to insufficient tripe, onions, and cilantro. And I found undercooked, pinkish areas in the pig's (probably not cow's) foot pieces--completely "no bueno." Lastly, I had to actually request oregano, which was a first. read more

Authentic Mexican food and fantastic prices. This isn't your gringo Tex Mex restaurant. It's a hole in the wall kinda place, with a pool table in the dining area and a Hispanic grocery off to the side. This is the place where the Mexicans who live in the area are going out to eat. And the food is delicious! We went on the recommendation of a chef/friend who lives nearby. I didn't have any idea this place existed. It's a hidden gem that, if you love authentic Mexican food, is sure to impress you. We had a little bit of everything, and loved everything we tried. The portions were generous, especially considering the prices! We will definitely be going back. read more

Been coming here any time we're in town for the last year or so. The Carnitas is amazing and the kids love the quesadillas. The chips and guac were on point during our last 2 stops in. I always make it a point to come here as the Mexican in VB isn't as good. read more

It's a bit of a drive from Richmond, but to me...well worth it. I've been to La Sabrosita a couple of times now. No, it is probably NOT the most inviting looking place to dine for many, but for me, I just love these little hole-in-the-wall joints. Stuck in the back of a small Mexican grocery store, La Sabrosita is a quint dining experience that is certainly reminiscent of the pool-hall dining one can find in rural Mexico settings. Yes, there is a pool table (one), and yes, there is often some music pumping through the speakers. Some of the staff speak English okay, but some do not. They seemed to appreciate my ability to speak limited Spanish though, and the menu is very descriptive of the items you're looking at. There is plenty to choose from, and both times I have ended up getting the mixed fajita plate which has been a good choice both times. Food is hot and plentiful, and service is always with a smile. Plenty of drinks (non-alcoholic), and beer (if desired). Oh, and they do NOT serve traditional chips and hot sauce. You receive a bowl of crispy wheels (a kind of a slightly puffed crispy snack) and some hot sauce (if desired) to put on them. They are kind of oddly addictive as well. If you like them, you can pick up a large bag in the grocery section (as well as many spices and cooking needs). read more

Quesadilla Ranchera Cabezza flavorful but needs spice. Beans and rice were cold You'll fare better with the staff if you at least attempt to speak Spanish. read more

My family and I took a day-cation and drove out from the Hampton Roads area to the Natural Bridge State Park. After a really cool day of hitting some trails, we were pretty hungry and settled on Mexican food. While we initially planned to hit a chain spot on our drive home, I found this little gem with good ratings and reviews, so we shifted gears and decided to hit the mom-and-pop instead. And we are all so glad we did. First, it's a really fun mix of restaurant and ethnic market that happens to also have a few pool tables in the center. We came in to a fairly empty room (early dinner), but it wasn't long before a few groups of Spanish speaking buddies came in, started playing pool while they waited for their food. Seemed a popular hangout for the locals. Second, the service was wonderful. Two super friendly ladies were very prompt, and had just the perfect mix of checking on us with allowing us to enjoy our meals. Third, the food was amazing! I'm keeping the carbs lower, so went with chicken fajitas and just ignored the tortillas/rice/beans. My wife got the A La Mexicana w/ steak. My son, a steak quesadilla, and my daughter, the Burrito Ranchero. Delicious would be an understatement! The family raved about the homemade corn tortillas. We would absolutely stop here again! Cool spot, great authentic food, served by wonderful staff. If I had any complaint at all, it would be that the restrooms needed a little attention, but otherwise an awesome find! read more

This place is AWESOME!!!! I'm so grato have a Latina market to go to in Waynesboro. It's a restaurant and convenience store combined. I have not had the pleasure of eating there, however, I have shopped there and the cashier was the sweet young women ever!! They have produce, merch, alcohol, and many other things to choose from. I will definitely be a frequent customer of their's. Also for all my Latina's out there, they have a notary/office for legal formalities Nextdoor as well as a worship center!! Te Amos La Sabrosita!! read more

Didn't expect this place to be pretty damn good. Just moving here from Cali I wasn't expecting much. The AlPastor was so good. Reminds me of one of my favorite places back home. Salsa had a nice kick. Homemade tortillas very impressive to find this far away from the border. The wife had the beef soup. It had big giant chunk. I'll give this place eight stars if I could. Don't expect to have the best service if you're an English only speaking person. The ambience is a little weird but coming from a person who's has a really high standards for Mexican food. I'll definitely be back. Don't judge this book by its cover. I hope the next time I go, it's just as good. read more

Absolutely delicious, came here after hiking in Shenandoah national park and got take-out- ordered quesadilla ranchera, which came with sides of red rice and refried beans, and onion rings appetizer. The onionn rings had these orange and green sauces that really made it notable and the quesadillas were delicious and filling. Decently priced and large variety of things to order. Service was quick and very friendly, hardly any wait. Interior is homey and nicely decorated, and there is also some pool tables and what looked like arcade games. The restaurant was also connected to this mini grocery mart that had a variety of ethnic groceries like sodas, chips, fruits, veggies, and soap. There was a bakery section that was very tempting. Overall would definitely return! read more

Interesting place to eat. I passed it while driving due to lack of signage and had to turn around. Inside isn't pretty or appealing by any means. There is a Mexican grocery in there as well. The food service was very fast. The waitress kept speaking only Spanish to me even though I told her I didn't speak Spanish. I found this rude and they lost a star for this and the price of the food. The food was tasty enough. I do not like the thick flour tortillas. They were very tiny and not enough space for the fajitas. Over all would give the food a 3-4 and place a 3. Price is a 2-3 for me. The chicken fajitas was $20. I have had much better fajitas for cheaper. The chicken made my fingers yellow when I picked it up after dropping it??!! This is after washing them with soap and water. Bathroom was okay. read more

I came here with some friends for a late lunch. It wasn't too busy and we got to choose where we sat. We were immediately greeted with welcoming service and our waitress was very nice! I don't give out 5 star reviews often, but the food was too delicious for me. Hands down one of the best and even the best burrito I've ever had. The atmosphere and vibes in the restaurant are lovely and I am definitely coming back here again. The restaurant also has a store side, so after you're done eating you can go shop around! read more

Thank you for authentic Mexican food! Best little hidden gem in Waynesboro. Hidden in the back of a Latino specialty market of the same name. Tastes like grandma-from-Mexico is cooking for her family. No flour tortillas. When you taste the made-by-hand corn tortillas, you might never want a fake flour tortilla again. Worth a special trip. Servers speak Spanish and very little English - lending to the authenticity. #ThankYouThursday read more

Ordered 14 al pastor, carne asada, carnitas, and chorizo street tacos ($2 each) for the table. All taco meats are served with cilantro and onion on a corn tortilla with red or green sauce on the side. The al pastor tacos had good flavor, enhanced by the pineapple and seasonings, but were dry. The carne asada and carnitas tacos were good but not great. Both could be described as a little bland and a little dry. The chorizo tacos were the most flavorful and best cooked of the four taco meats. Mexican Coke $3.75 each; Jarritos $2 each. In place of chips and salsa, La Sabrosita serves a basket of duros (a deep fried snack food made of puffed wheat) that look like wagon wheels. read more

Very Authentic Mexican style food. They have very good street style tacos and seafood options if your looking for real Mexican food NOT Mexican American style.

I cannot comment on the inside of the restaurant because I used a delivery service for my food so that's what I'm gonna focus on. I have been wanting to try this place for a while. I've had a very long day and was craving Mexican. Finally ordered some food and lemme say, 10/10!!! I got the carnitas tacos. The meat was tender with the perfect mix of onions and cilantro. Very tasty meat as well. Next to the chips and guacamole! I am a huge fan of chunky guacamole, could definitely taste the lime juice in it outright but that's far from a complaint. The rice and beans are also super good! And to wash it down with my favorite Mexican soda, Jarritos. I haven't tried the fried ice cream yet but might update this sooner. Will definitely be ordering again! read more

Good food. You can do a call in if you don't want to wait for your food. Love their Carne Asada ranchera and horchata drinks.

Taqueria La Sabrosita gives you the feeling of being in Mexico! Friendly, quick service! Authentic food but lacking in flavor and expensive. Food total for one person was over $25 with tip and no drink. read more

La Sabrosita - Outside. - Mexican Near Me - Waynesboro, Virginia

This is the type of restaurant I don't want to write a review about .... because we want to keep this little gem to ourselves. Nah, it's too amazing not too share. Go eat here.... now!! Support this amazing eatery :) Plus, they updated the menu! It's now easier for us non-Spanish fluent Gringos to navigate. Authentic and perfectly satisfying. More importantly, the folks running the kitchen clearly care about what they serve. Fresh, conscientiously prepared with loving goodness. The attention to details is reflected by the serving team. These young woman knew the food they brought to the table was amazing, and it was reflected in the kind proudness beaming in their smiles. My Girlfriend enjoyed the pork burrito. It was conscientiously prepared and generously portioned. It came with a simple side salad garnished with radishes, red onions and cucumbers. She was in burrito heaven. I opted for the Huarache, a traditional Mexican dish that originated in Mexico City. It's plated on an oblong fried masa base (think thick corn tortilla) with fresh goodness on top like pinto beans, meat of your choice (carnitas style pork for me), pico, queso fresca, and more. Add to that a side of yellow sasson Goya style yellow rice with a deep but complex cumin flavor and some pickled jalepenos that mix well with the feast. Nom. So. Good. We didn't speak, we ate. And ate. And planned our return to devour the entire menu over time. This amazing restaurant is about what matters. Incredibly pleasing food, a culinary team who cares and a kind atmosphere. It's humble. It's also a grocery store with a diverse offering of South of the US border offerings. This only makes it better. AND it's one of my favorite restaurants EVER!! read more

We were in the Waynesboro area, exploring the Shenandoah Valley for a week, and we came here twice. It's a small place, attached to a Mexican grocery. The food is delicious. The first time, we had tacos al pastor and tacos carne asada. They were very tasty and in homemade tortillas. We decided from first taste we'd come back. The next time we ordered quesadillas, which came with rice and beans, and guacamole. We inadvertently ended up with extra guacamole, because I tried to explain to the young server that I was allergic to avocados. Her English was not too good, and I think she thought I wanted extra guacamole. That was no problem, as my husband happily ate it. I scooped it away from the rest of my food. It was really my fault, since I knew her English wasn't very proficient, I could have just said "no guacamole for me", and she would have totally understood that. Anyway, the food was excellent. We really enjoyed this little place, and if we are back this way, we will definitely try it again. We highly recommend it. read more

Went for dinner on a Saturday night and it was amazing. Good service and excellent food. I had the Carnitas Entree and everything was prepared to perfection. Lively music, pool tables active and great grocery items too. Don't let the building's exterior and full parking scare you. This is a hidden treasure. read more

The food was very good and fresh. I ordered enchiladas ordering it with the mole sauce the server recommended. I was disappointed after about 10 minutes when I was informed they weren't serving mole sauce this evening. The tomatillo sauce which it was served with was very good but overpowering g for the dish. I would recommend this place. read more

Hands down best tacos I've ever had. Came in at 1:30 on a Friday and the staff was great and accommodating. The fact that it has a grocery store in part of it let's you know it's all fresh food. Better than any chain restaurant in the area. Perfection. read more
