Oh my what a delightful surprise! The roasted pig brought back memories of my first visit to Madrid and dining at Botin. The presentation was almost as great as the food. Our roasted pig was flawless! The server was most attentive and involved with our meal selection. Make a reservation and dine upstairs considerably more relaxed than the vibrant downstairs bar area. read more

Lively dinner spot. We only got tapas this time, but we would very much love to return and try some of the mains. The iberico meatballs were divine -- rich, juicy, flavorful. The pork and apple empanadilla was also delicious. The cocktails were extremely good; they balanced myriad flavors very well, and they were easy to drink. For dessert, we had the goat's cheese ice cream with licorice sauce; the ice cream was a lovely blend of savory and sweet, and the sauce had just the right kick without being too overpowering. Service is also extremely friendly and informative. read more

Jet lag can be a nightmare for travelers looking for a good meal, but a meal rarely solves this. Sabor may have just done that. This Spanish restaurant, located in the heart of London on Heddon Street (just around the corner from the Bond Street Christmas lights), is well worth its Michelin star. The Monkfish Tempura and Croquetas were tasty treats from the outdoor menu. However, the star of the show by far was their Octopus & Mojo Rojo. Rarely do you get a dish where every bite tastes like that special part of the meal you save for last--but this dish nailed it. And if you're debating dessert, the Goat Milk Ice Cream is absolutely worth staying for. Rating: 4.7/5 read more

This spot has solid energy in a laid back environment...like being hosted at a party in someone's home. The dishes are solid. They are portioned appropriately so order more if you're really hungry. The wine selection was "ok". I would return here for a date night or a meet up with good friends. read more

Trendy place that we were excited to try! Unfortunately not worth the hype. Food is good but far from Michelin-level. Prices are a bit of a joke given portion size. Maybe quick drinks at the bar are a better option... cocktails & drins menu was more reasonable. But it is Mayfair, true... read more

Food, service and atmosphere were all terrific. We ordered the suckling pig. A tab bit interesting in terms of seeing an entire portion of a pig, but in the end it was excellent. The pork meat was tender and juicy while the skin was crispy. Really good read more

This was my second time around for dinner at Sabor. We revisited the suckling pig this time and it was as good as the first one. The beef tongue sando is also a must try. Very friendly service and we will definitely come back for more next time in London. read more

Sabor - Spanish Near Me - London, XGL

While cruising down Regent Street one night in London, I suddenly began to feel the call of nature (the hunger type). Turning onto a side street, I was pleasantly surprised to be welcomed to this spot just as it opened and without a long line to get in. Seated at the counter, I decided to order the Octopus, which was recommended to be by my server. It was quite tasty but a still a bit chewy, firmer than my all-time favorite spot in Porto. After dinner, both guests seated beside me insisted on ordering the goat cheese ice cream, and I must say, I 100% echo their recommendation! It was delicious, tasty and creamy all at the same time. I would absolutely return to Sabor just for the dessert next time! read more

This is a very popular place but I don't like my visit here at all. We went for late lunch and were starving. We sat at the tiny tall tables which does not give us access to the amazing-looking seafood, but we were starving so decided to order other food. We ordered small plates like shrimp croquettes and jamon. The food is okay, but not something that's worth the wait. It took them forever to serve the food, and the service was HORRIBLE. Our waiter was just standing and chatting with other people and never checked in. We literally had to tap the host at the entrance to inquire about our food. Because no one answered when they passed by our table. read more

Sabor - Seafood bar - Spanish Near Me - London, XGL

The service was quite good - friendly but not refined, good enough for the environment of the place. The pulpo dish is their signature - was not really impressed. It's soaked in oil and doused in paprika, and that's all. It's tender, yes, but completely one note in flavor. The pumpkin and chestnut special was absolutely delicious. Rich but bright at the same time. I think it used to come with truffle but it didn't when I was here. The seafood rice was also very tasty - well balanced, and good variety of seafood in it. The rhubarb empanadita dessert was ok - honestly nothing special, but flaky and tastes of rhubarb. Good but not amazing as a meal. Glad I tried it, but wouldn't go running back read more

The best Spanish spot so far in London. This is a Michelin, and boy this place earns it's Michelin by being cool. We got here at 9:30 pm. got a casual table and started drinking wine. Then the pig ears, roasted pig. octopus, black pudding, fish, charcuterie and amazing steak. Super casual place. I'm a sucker for amazing food. London has transformed itself since I first start coming here in the 90s. With its easy accessibility (English is spoken here like America hahaha), this bumpkin can order everything on the menu and then some. I have officially become of a fan of London (again) after this meal. read more

Sabor was a beautiful restaraunt. Loved the open kitchen, and the fresh seafood display right when you walked in. The service was excellent and the staff was very helpful describing the Galician foods and specialties. We had a reservation for lunch and sat upstairs. We really loved the prawn croquettas to start. The tuna empanada was an excellent special and we really enjoyed the seafood rice, it was creamy but hearty. The sangria was delicious and refreshing, not too sweet either. read more

I'm from California and found this wonderful Spainish tapas style restaurant!! The food was delicious!! The octopus and 40 day aged rib eye was just mouth watering good! It's a family style vibe with very friendly staff! We did not have reservations but they accommodated us despite being completely full! This little place revived a Michelin star and now we know why!!! Congrats :) read more

I love me some Spanish food~ & this place definitely did not disappoint! You can a choice of sitting at The Counter (downstairs) or El Asador (upstairs). Each one has a different menu! I ate upstairs this time, but trust me, I'll be back to eat downstairs! Service was wonderful, wine was lovely, vibe was bumpin' - what a beautiful night! Green Salad Sounds super classic right? It's literally some greens, onions, & tomatoes in some olive oil, & yet, it was so simply pleasing - the ingredients were so fresh! Half Segovian Suckling Pig The absolute best - definitely my favorite dish of the night. The meat was so juicy and the skin was so crisp (the perfect combo). To make it even better, it comes with this broth that you can dip it in & that broth is absolutely HEAVEN. For sure a must order! Gamba Roja del Mediterraneo This dish was not bad - the gambas were well seasoned, but I thought they were a bit small, not meaty enough. Crisp Artichokes I ordered this because I love artichokes :) It was well-seasoned, but they definitely could have been more crispy! Watermelon Sorbet Oh so refreshing! What a clean, yummy way to end the meal! read more

Very busy on a Thursday night, had some drinks while waiting. Host, server, and I think the manager all came to check on us while we waited. Sat in the bar section, manager gave us tapas suggestions which were all delicious. Favorites were the fried monkfish, jamón ibérico, and tortilla txistorra. Whole staff was extremely friendly and attentive. Would love to come back but we're back in California now. read more

Great place to come for Spanish food - with three standout dishes: suckling pig, Spanish tortilla, and octopus. Suckling pig - very few places do this, and Sabor does it really well. Such tender meat, such crispy skin. Heaven. Tortilla - the most moist and juicy one I've had in London. the egg is still oozing out when you cut it, nice and golden. Perfection. Octopus - tender and cooked well, very fresh too. If you have a big group, you can even go for a whole octopus - I think its around £150 per octopus! The only downside is that its very much modelled as a casual Spanish bar type of place. Good for lunch, not so good for business meals, or more formal dining if that's what you're after. Pricing is on the £££ side even in this informal environment, but the food quality is so so good. read more

Everything was delicious. I'm visiting London but would come back again tomorrow just to try other dishes. Cool ambiance, open kitchen style so you can sit at the bar and watch the chefs at work. Good for single diners, couples. The "presa iberica" (pork) was perfectly cooked, the gambas (shrimp) was grilled, salted with olive oil. It was simple but delicious as well. Artichokes on toast were great also. Attentive staff, what more is needed? read more

I had been dying to go to the Asador since it opened, pre-hype, and when I finally made it was disappointed. Not bad but can't understand how it got it's Michelin star. The ambience is bar seating, not particularly comfortable. Started with two specials, a thin sliced meat and a grilled giant prawn. The meat (like Parma ham) was excellent. The prawn was very sweet but ordered it with a friend and it was one not particularly big shrimp. The suckling pug main was good with a ton of crackling but again not earth shattering. It was also challenging to figure out how to eat/share, the waiter saw us struggling but took way too long to help. Overall not a bad meal if popped in while shopping but not special. read more

Our first time here and it was fantastic. Great dishes to share and a great atmosphere. Our server was super lovely and so knowledgeable about the menu. We tried everything she suggested and loved everything. We will be back and I totally recommend. read more

Sabor - London's Hottests - Spanish Near Me - London, XGL

Absolutely great Spanish tapas restaurant in soho. I ate at the counter downstairs so can't speak to the food upstairs. It's a first come first serve setup downstairs which required a 30 min wait to get seated. They have a nice bar to drink while waiting for your food. I tired the iberico ham which was great and sliced in the spot. The cod cheek special was a standout as was the ox tail which might be the best thing I ate in 3 days visiting London. The service was spot on and the drink list was great. I would highly recommend checking out this new spot. read more

WARNING! EAT DOWNSTAIRS, NOT UPSTAIRS!!! Food is very good here, however there is a limited menu upstairs (which you confusingly make a reservation for through their website and it's actually a DIFFERENT RESTAURANT). The stools have no backs and it's a LIMITED MENU and not near as good! read more

Have been a couple of times, and happy to go back anytime. Every dish has been excellent. Staff are knowledgeable and passionate. Interesting dishes, all well made. Can sit at the counter and watch the preparation read more

The tapas are just okay but the portions are tiny. The price to value ratio is outright terrible. We tried almost everything on the menu and nothing was impressive. Patatas bravas looked french fries from McDonald's. Blood orange salad was three slices of orange with two tiny pieces of ricotta - literally!! Its unbelievable they have a Michelin star - must have bribed them read more
