It's been a long time since we last visited, so we decided to come back for dinner. I got the chaufa de pollo ($17.49) again and enjoyed the savory flavors. It's a bigger portion than the dish I had more than a year ago. Also, this doesn't have wonton strips and peas. You order at front, and food and drinks get sent to your table. There's also a 3% surcharge to your subtotal for using a card. They cook your food to order here, and I could smell the fried rice getting prepared on the stove. The fried rice is strong in flavor but not too salty. It's similar to what you might get from a teppanyaki restaurant. The chicken was also good, but I felt that the rice had much more flavor. It wasn't really juicy as well. Otherwise, this made for a great dish, and I had some leftovers for the next day. read more

Any way you look at it Pollo a la Brasa is the perfect entree--scrumptious rotisserie chicken perfectly seasoned, a plateful of fries, and one of the most exquisite sauces known to man in the aji verde. Sabor perpetuates this reputation by having a nigh-perfect example of how to make this dish sing. I loved every bite of this, even at $21 for the half-chicken version of it. The service was okay--quick to answer questions and getting our food out to us in a relatively timely manner. What was nice too is Sabor didn't go the route of charging for each aji verde sauce, which I liked. When you're used to going through half-a-bottle with every polla a la brasa meal, it's very important that that wonderful concoction is ready to go when you're ready for another bite of chicken, fries, or sometimes by itself. The space is kind of limited and I really wish it had more diners coming through. But as it was it had an okay vibe to it, like you're eating at your local spot that the tourists and gawkers haven't caught up with. I think it's a prime candidate for just bringing a book to allow time for your food to digest after. I think this spot will be a new addition to the local eat rotation, especially after the Fullerton Central Library meet-ups. read more

Saturday was a beautiful and warm day and I wanted to eat outside. It was the perfect chance to try Sabor. It is a casual Peruvian restaurant, but I appreciate the food was plated with glass plates and real silverware. You order at the register. There are a couple tables inside, but the best seating is on the covered patio. My husband ordered the lomo saltado with steak and shrimp, prepared with fries and rice. I usually order mine the same way at most places, but this time I had mine with pasta. Oh my gosh it was so good! The noodles were packed with buttery/ garlic flavor. I will get it that way next time. I really enjoyed the food and will be back. read more

Sabor Peruvian Rotisserie Chicken - Peruvian Near Me - Fullerton, California

I have been twice so I can say that the food has been consistently delicious. I love the ceviche de pescado, lomo saltado, platanos, the green sauce they provide, and the passion fruit juice . I tried the passion fruit cheesecake and it was tasty however I can tell it was in the freezer for a while or perhaps the cheesecake hadn't fully cooled prior to putting it in the freezer. Anyway if it didn't have the frostbite element it would have been tasty. That's the only reason my rating is a 4 and not a 5. Another thing that was disappointing was In my ceviche they only gave me two very small slices of sweet potato lol I thought that was silly. The place gives more of a whole in the wall vibe. Nothing special. you can eat inside and the patio is decent :). The service is great. The lady working at the front was very sweet, kind and helpful :) read more

My husband and I came here on a Friday for lunch. We were in the area and love Peruvian food. The owner and his son greeted us as we entered the restaurant. Super nice, family owned restaurant. We ordered the mar y Tierra lomo Saltado and the 1/2 rotisserie chicken meal and we loved both! The saltado was very flavorful and meat was tender. The chicken was very flavorful too. We had two maracuya and they were very good too, not too sweet! Definitely recommend if you're looking for some good Peruvian food! read more

Cute little restaurant in downtown Fullerton area. We were hungry for Peruvian food so I found this place on Yelp w good reviews. The service was good and friendly. You order your food at the counter and they bring you your order of dining in. Not too many seats inside but they do have a few more tables outside in the front patio. The food was amazingly good, I wasn't expecting much but everything was delicious very home cooked feel. I would recommend coming here if you want authentic Peruvian food. They have a huge selection and priced fairly. Large parking lot as well. read more

Wow, absolutely amazing Peruvian food. I am always on the look out for good Peruvian dishes and most of the time, am a bit disappointed. This place definitely changed my losing streak. I ordered 3 dishes togo; fish ceviche (Ceviche de Pescado), chicken soup (Aguadito de Pollo), and filet mignon (Lomo Saltado). The ceviche, I ordered it spicy. It was not over the top spicy, just the right amount of kick. The fish was fresh, the red onion on top crisp, and of course the crunchy hominy with a smooth piece of sweet potato gives you all the textures in one beautiful dish. Very citrusy and bright just a perfect example of what Peruvian ceviche is supposed to be. The lomo saltado, was seasoned expertly. Not overly salty, not greasy. High quality cuts of meat cooked to perfection over the crispy, but softened with the sauce french fries. Served over white rice. My only complaint was the way it was packaged did not travel well. The sauce spilled all over the napkins and brochure in the bag. Easily remedied by just wrapping that item singularly in a bag by itself. Just something to note if you're ordering that to go. Normally, that type of thing would've really annoyed me, but the food was so good. It immediately erased my annoyance with that situation. The soup was very hot. It allowed me to enjoy the other dishes first as it cooled. It was comforting, flavorful and packed with veggies, rice and chicken. Has a citrus undertone to it, and was a healthy end to an amazing meal. I added my own cilantro and green onion to it which elevated it to absolute deliciousness. The green sauce served with the food was so good. I could literally drink that stuff. It was delicious on top of everything. Not that the food needed anything else, as it is great all on its own. The restaurant itself looked clean and the young lady who took my order was pleasant. I will be back here again and again. read more

Sabor Peruvian Rotisserie Chicken - Lomo Saltado (Filet Mignon) - Peruvian Near Me - Fullerton, California

Expensive and was not impressed with what I got. Not a good value. Will not be back. Not a fan of the Peruvian Chinese fusion.

Great food, good-sized portions. The restaurant itself is small and tastefully decorated. The only drawback is the amount of seating they have approximately 10-12 2-person tables. This is not good for large groups, but great for 2-4 people. We ordered the chicken and steak saltado plates and the flavor was spot on! The green salsa was soooo good. We enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back! read more

We came here randomly because we were around the area. We ordered the anticuchos de carne, tallarin saltado de carne, and saltado de pollo. I thought the food was mediocre. It wasn't bad nor good. It's a decent peruvian restaurant but I feel like there's better ones around the area. read more

Food: My partner and I ordered the 1/4 Pollo ($12) and the Lomo Saltado ($17). The 1/4 Pollo was flavorful. The plantains were cooked perfectly. The rice had some oil and garlic flavor to it too! The Lomo Saltado was packed with flavor. The gravy already has a lot of flavor in it. I did notice that it tasted extra salty in some parts, but I think it's because the fries had salt on them too. The green sauce was refreshing with some spice in it. Service: After we ordered, the food came out within minutes. There are no self service drink stations and no restrooms. They have ice cream available! Ambiance: There's a good amount of parking during the day for lunch. I can see how it will be busy at night. It's located behind Clyde's Hot Chicken. read more

It's nice to have a Peruvian place close by with a pretty authentic menu. Menu has all the staples (rotisserie chicken, saltado, tallarind, etc.). Ordered the 1/4 rotisserie chicken with sweet potato fries and fried plantains side as well as lomo saltado. Great to get two sides with the chicken orders! Food taste pros: -Chicken was cooked well and great seasoning (can choose either breast and wing or leg and thigh with the 1/4 chicken) -Lomo Saltado meat was tender and delicious with super good sauce -Fried plantains excellent Food taste cons: -Both fries (regular and sweet potato) were super flavorless and lukewarm when they came out; it was honestly a bummer. Would have seasoned with salt and pepper, but there wasn't any around. Good dipped in the green cilantro sauce that came with the meal and the lomo Saltado sauce (because they absolutely needed more flavor) -Needed more of the veggies with the Lomo Saltado (ratio between meat/veggies/fries/rice not great) Other notes: -Price point was really high overall. Feel like the chicken was more reasonably priced ($12.99 for the 1/4), especially with two sides, but $19.99 for the Lomo Saltado did not accurately represent the portion size -Small interior and pretty empty on an early weekday evening -Staff was not overly friendly, but not rude either. No one came to check on us while we were eating. Would give it a solid "fine," and 3.5 stars if I could give halves. Good to try, but not hurrying to go back! read more

Really wanted to try this place out and was looking forward to the $20 whole chicken thanksgiving special. Called today for a pick up order and specifically asked if they had the $20 whole chicken special. Lady on the phone said yes, and mentioned it came with 3 sides, which I thought was pretty cool since I figured for $20 it was only for the chicken. I come to pick up and total came out to $35+. I mentioned it should be $20 since I asked about the special over the phone and she had confirmed. She said that was only for thanksgiving day, lol. Classic bait and switch. Won't be coming back here anymore. read more

Friendly service. Good food, but some items pricey (whole chicken w/ sides is like $33). Lomo Saltado (filet mignon with fries onion and sauce) was tender and good. Not as good as I;ve had but still worth ordering. Lunch special chicken wrap with (cilantro?) soup was very good and a good value at $8.99. I would come back. Yes, parking may be a challenge, park in lot next to Sabor. Not to be a Karen, but the guy taking orders was wearing a shirt with the word "F*ck" on it. Inappropriate for a family restaurant. read more

Great food and service. Get the Aji de Galina. Super creamy and delicious! Tried Yuca for the first time and loved it!

This is my new go to Peruvian food spot! The marinade on the chicken is very flavorful. Umami to the max. Pairs well with inka cola or your choice of beverage. I'll be going back when I'm craving Peruvian food. read more

The carne asada fried rice is too salty. It's not worth it! I might try other items on the menu.

The food is great. Its a small peruvian place. (I've been to another peruvian resto and its too salty for my taste.) They have small selection, but sometimes its best that way for small store. I love their lomo saltado, their plantains and love their drink chiha morada (I hope I got this right). The service, is not nad. He takes the order and serves the food. I prefer to support local and small places, to help the community. I would recommend this place. read more

Mediocre. I left feeling, what a waste of calories and carbs. The food felt like it was reheated. I order the bistec a lo Pobre. The steak had no flavor. The rice was dry. The egg was slightly undercooked, which can be fine if all the other parts are working I left pretty grumpy and upset at myself for spending that kind of money and getting mediocre food. read more

Sabor is a delicious small restaurant with a great patio for dining. Not much room inside for eating, but the patio more than makes up for it. The owner is very friendly, and the cook is talented. We arrived about 1:30pm on a Sunday, and the place was busy- but not full. We ordered Saltado De Vegetales (Veggies), Anticuchos de Pollo, and sweet potato fries. The prices are fair and the portions are good. The vegetable stir-fry was very tasty with enough for 2-3 meals. The chicken skewers came with potato and corn and an insanely delicious dipping sauce. They also provided a green sauce for all the meals that was like heaven. We will definitely be returning. read more

We ordered online. It took about 20 mins for it to be done. We came a bit too early to pick it up. And the server was very friendly, enough to let us try the ice cream that they have. All of the ice cream we tried was really good and I would get some when we actually dine in. The restaurant is small inside. Probably only 2 parties can sit inside. But I believe they have seating outside, as well. The food was worth the wait. It was delicious, every single bite we had. The meat wasn't too dry or too hard. The rice was perfect. Just all around perfect dishes. I can't wait to try the other items. read more
