We wanted to stay downtown and were craving papusas. After weighing several options, we landed on…read moreSabor Latino. None of us had ever been, so we had no idea what to expect. This spot was tucked away, and I'm told the building was formerly an iHop? However the chairs looked like they belonged to an Asian restaurant because they had an image of ramen on them. There was plenty of seating and plenty of screens to watch games or telenovelas. When we stepped inside we were immediately greeted and asked to sit anywhere. (We were greeted in Spanish, and it seems like that was the primary language spoken there. So if you're not that fluent in Spanish, be prepared to either bring someone with you who is or brush up on the basics.) They got us menus and we were able to get what we came for -- PAPUSAS! They gave us complimentary chips and salsa while we waiting. And brought out two tubs of condiments for the papusas -- salsa de rojo y curtido (a pickled cabbage mixture). These tubs were huge, but were perfect to pass around the table. I ordered the papusa loca, which was truly massive and did not disappoint. There were peppers in it, but it was the right amount of spice. Really enjoyed it! Go give the a visit!

I remember seeing a comment saying this place had the best breakfast burrito in town, and a bunch…read moreof other people hyping their breakfast up, so I was pretty excited to finally try it this morning. I ordered a breakfast burrito with ham, bacon, eggs, potatoes, beans, and cheese and added grilled jalapeños. Total came out to $16.49. Honestly... I wasn't that impressed. The burrito was on the smaller side and it leaned way heavier on the potatoes than the eggs. The bacon and ham were decent though. The grilled jalapeños were really good -- nice and spicy (hard to mess that up ). The green salsa was tasty, but the red salsa had a little too much cumin for my taste. For that price, I'm used to paying something similar in L.A., but usually the size of the burrito reflects the price, and this one didn't really. Overall it wasn't like "OMG this is the best burrito ever." It was just okay for me.

They have everything from marinated steak, seasoned sautéed shrimp, fried fish to tamales, chicken, fried bananas and my favorite Papusas! I tried the cheese Papusas. It was my first dine at this restaurant and it was delicious. The buttery notes I detected in the Papusas were quite a surprise. I wanted more but I could only eat two! Their Papusas are modestly priced at 2 Papusas for $6 served with cabbage, chips and salsa. The owner, who is a delightful man named Jose created the Papusas fresh, and also made me a Michelada. Now, I am very selective on Michelada's. There is really only one place that I love and trust to make a Michelada authenticate. I have to say he did it! Michelada with a touch of flame flavor, to lemony notes, tamarindo, and clamato served with a premium beer. And here's the surprise... At a small cost of only $5.95! I usually pay $8 at the other restaraunt I love. I give this place a YES! I will definately be back.

Grilled celery, broccoli, onions, Carrots, black beans, rice and avocado wrapped with a spinach tortilla. At times when cutting carbs I ask for the burrito without the tortilla on a plate instead.

So apparently there's three styles (queso :just cheese, mixsta: beef, cheese and beans, she forgot the name of the third one but it's frijoles y queso (beans and cheese) ). We got mixta and put some cortido( mixture of vegetables)on top and the server gave us some salsa. Sadly I didn't get any pictures because I was to excited to eat but we got one each because we weren't too hungry and they were ONLY 5.50 WHICH IS AN ABSOLUTE STEAL. Overall I'd definitely recommend the papusas given I haven't tried anything else. Just a bummer it's so far away from where I live though.
