A great pretty little restaurant. It's really tight in there so just be aware. My friend said they only really speak Spanish there just fyi. But they were really friendly and took our order promptly. The food was delicious. And a great value. They only have street parking. No parking lot near by. But if you're in the area. And want some delicious Columbian food I'd recommend you stop in. Next time I want to try the seafood dishes read more

Found this restaurant on the American Airlines dining list. We were happily greeted when we entered, and quickly seated. It was a surprisingly small place, but it was bustling. The first thing to catch your eye is the mouth watering display of freshly baked breads and pastries. They also have a big screen cycling through drool worthy images of their dishes. We started with a pitcher of sangria, and ordered a chicken dish, a Hawaiian pork dish and a seafood dish. We all did our best to clean our plates, but none of us succeeded. Everything was well flavored. Although none of us spoke Spanish, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We watched a steady stream of people pick up take out or grab bakery items. It seems like a popular local spot and we can understand why. We couldn't help but gawk at everyone else's plates and everything looked delicious. Can't wait to return. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

I've been coming to Sabor y Arte 6-7 days a week for lunch and have spent a lot of money here over time. I've overlooked plenty of issues because I understand lunch rushes can get busy, but today was the final straw. The problems start the moment you call. The phone experience is chaotic--loud music, employees yelling across the restaurant, multiple conversations happening at once, and it's nearly impossible to hear the person taking your order. It feels completely disorganized and unprofessional. Today I called in a simple lunch special order and arrived about 25-30 minutes later. My food wasn't ready. I then waited another 15 minutes, meaning I spent 45 minutes waiting for a basic lunch special. It got worse when I arrived at my second job to eat. The meal was carelessly thrown together, the food looked like slop, the rice was all over the container, and I received pork instead of the chicken I ordered. To top it off, I got one tiny sweet plantain with the meal. When I called to explain the situation, I was told I had to bring the food back to get a refund. After being a loyal customer who eats here almost every day, that's the level of customer service I received. There are too many good Colombian restaurants in the area to keep rewarding poor service, incorrect orders, and a lack of accountability. This was my last visit. I will be taking my business elsewhere and cannot recommend this place based on my experience. Loyal customers deserve better. read more

Horrible customer service, there's no accountability taken. Waited 3 hours to be told they don't know where my order and I must be wrong they said. read more

Selected Sabor y Arte to watch a soccer match. Ambiance was good, staff welcoming and accommodating. Space was a bit tight probably due to excess soccer spectators!! Food was ok, only had a picadera, nothing wrong with it but not spectacular either, "se dejó comer". Alcohol was good and very fairly priced!! Good selection of local and Colombian beers. Will return and recommend. read more

Great food and excellent service. Small location but the environment and food is worth every read more

So I came here with some friends and it was an awesome experience. The whole ambiance is great and the service was awesome. We ordered off the specials of the day to have a surprise. It ended up being chicken and potato soup w/ grilled tilapia. The dish also came with sweet plantains, a safe salad of your choice , and some rice. Unfortunately the tilapia was fried and not grilled and there was waaaaaay too much sauce on the salad of beets and fish. Other than that I loved my experience and I'm sure other disses would have less sauce. The ambiance was great just a little small but perfect with outdoor seating! read more

Prepare to be drawn in by the smell of baked goods and grilled meats! Sabor Y Arte is a restaurant and bakery found in the heart of Elizabeth Ave. As a majority of the Colombian restaurants in Elizabeth are found on and around Morris Ave., Sabor Y Arte is a welcome addition. They make fresh and delicious (jugos) fruit juices and smoothies. Try the lulo, a Colombian fruit that tastes like a mix of pineapple and lime. They have daily lunch specials which bring in the locals as well as an ala carte menu with typical Colombian dishes. They make a good bandeja paisa and their baked goods, like pandebono is great as well. For dessert, they even have cholado (shaved ice with fruit)! read more

Today I decided to get one of their specials and as I opened my "sopa de carne" about to take the first spoon full, I found what makes their specials, really special. I guess you get what you pay for ($10) but that's a health code violation. I also felt like I was bothering the person who gave me my food by simply asking for it. I guess she was having a bad day but there was no need for the attitude. Here is my super special sopa de carne. read more

I placed an online order at 11:51 am, I called 3 times to find out when my food was arriving and they kept telling me it was on the way. At q:00pm I called again and they finally told me "they hadn't seen my order" I told them to cancel it and refund my money, the woman proceeded to tell me I had to pick it up cash or it would take 8 days to get my money back. They refuse to let me speak to a manager or owner at this point! All I want is my money back as fast as they took mine! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS read more

first time coming here with two other people and when you first walk in, you realize how tiny and packed the tables are, meaning they are so close to each other there's no room to move. i went on a friday, it was a packed house and in my opinion they were overstaffed, that the employees would sit against the bakery display and wait for work. when eating, you feel like you're in a eating contest , that's how i felt like it was due to my table being faced towards the bakery display and employees. food was mediocre , i spent $21 on a bandeja paisa that looked like a mini paisa and the steak tasted funky, didn't tasted fresh. if i was Gordon Ramsay, he wouldn't approve this restaurant lol read more

This is a little place that is amazing. It's a hidden gem. The food here is amazing huge portions and affordable prices. I'm surprised it doesn't have many reviews and I'm glad I discovered this little place. They have fresh oj which i love and other fresh juices as well . They also sell pan dulce not sure wether or not they make it there. I don't recall what my breakfast was called but it was delicious. One thing that I did not like was that the waitress seemed a bit overwhelmed and there's about 3 or 4 of them and about 15 tables if they where to be a. It more organized or have an assigned section it would be a lot better read more

Super friendly service even though there was a language barrier. Got the bread with cheese and chicharron. The flaky bread was perfectly delicious although I was unfamiliar with the cheese inside. The cheese was on the dry side and a bit salty. The chicharron was crunchy as it should be and not at all salty, which was good! The prices were great as I only spent $7! The place was jammed and it was a little messy but they were very congenial. I will return! read more

I really wish this place was more organized because the food is great and very reasonably priced. I endure the long waits and having the person taking my order over the phone talk to other people and asking me to repeat my order because the food is worth the hassle. If their location was bigger and they had more staff, they would definitely get five stars from me. So, if you're looking for delicious food, at a reasonable price and are willing to overlook the madness, this is the place for you. read more

I get the mini paisa to go. It's pretty dank and only like $8. The ladies are attentive and friendly. I have nothing I can complain about, except about how tight it is in there. I can barely make it to counter with out stumbling on a chair. Im a regular sized human. Once you ninja feet your way to counter and pay. Get ready to enjoy some dank Colombian food. I visit frequently. read more

Nice food, Great portions, I have been coming here for years. I have never have had a unhappy experience. The staff is always always so happy to assist with any part of any order large or just a cup of coffee always on point! I haven't seen the pens much in a while yet they still keep the same quality. So hard to see that even after over 7 years great work. read more

I really enjoyed eating at this restaurant. The service was quick and the food was tasty. I ordered the "mini bandeja" ($12). This dish included rice, beans, fried eggs,fried plantain,steak, and an arepa. Please note, I had plenty of "bandajas", and this one is out there but not quite there. If I'm around Elizabeth, I will probably be back. read more

Have come here plenty, plenty, PLENTY of times. Things I love: 1) Prices are great 2) Portion size is amazing 3) Food is SPECTACULAR I usually get the garlic chicken with rice and it comes with a heaping size of chicken and a nice portion of rice. I always leave with my stomach full and my wallet doesn't take too much of a hurting. 100% recommend this place. read more

Isssaaaaaaaihhhttt not gonna hype up.... naaa meannnn?? :P just needs bit of love on the dishes :/ and presentation

The meat was inedible. The rice with no flavor. Mediocre at best. Ordered the Paise wasn't good. Huge portions.

My family keeps giving this restaurant chances & it's always the same thing. They ALWAYS mess up the orders. (Even before the pandemic.) & the food is mediocre. Good portion sizes but what's the point if it's not that good or it's the wrong order read more

I was drawn by the fact that they have a 2 for 1 before 8 pm during the week for happy hour. Food was good and so were the drinks. I came back with friends even though I don't speak Spanish very well. I noticed that the Bartending girls try to rip you off. I paid almost $40 for for drinks that's 2 for 1 . I asked about the bill being high and the bartender said I ordered the last drink after 8. Unless they forgot to change their clocks an hour back, that was not true. When bought to her attention she was not very nice. We are bankers and accountants, so we pay attention to bills and money. And since this is not the first time this happened as they take advantage of the fact that you don't speak Spanish. I am saddened because I really liked this place and saw many happy hours in the future. But I don't like dishonesty. Pay attention to Your bill as they add their tip to it as well. Needless to say, I'm not going back . I will have to go to RANCHO MATEO next door. read more

Great food, Great environment .. only problem is service, waitresses are very scrambled and do not have assigned sections

This place is a local gem. I absolutely love this place for quality food.. try the garlic chicken here because it is amazing. The plantains are really good too. I love all the lunch specials they have! I think dinner is a bit expensive for Spanish food.. but they give u a lot of food.. which makes it worth it. They have trouble understanding or speaking English if you do not speak spanish.. so try to go there without too many questions if you do not speak spanish. I love this place... and I always get the Garlic chicken! Yumm read more
