I live close to Santosh and have been a few times. Each time I've had a burrito and tonight I tried the carnitas. It was excellent. The chips and salsas filled me up, but I enjoyed every bite. Service was good and it was not crowded when I dined in around 1930. Will definitely keep coming back. read more

Sabroso! Mexican Grill - Carnitas Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

SO GOOD - ordered for delivery. Favorite items ordered / ranked / why 1. Pork Tamale w red sauce: cooked so perfectly and fluffy moist and the pork was really good and not dry and large portion 2. Al Pastor Taco: again pork was cooked perfectly and a lot of flavor 3. California Burrito: a ton of food absolutely gigantic, tasted really good fries were soggy but we expected that since we got delivery. We love California Burritos and we're happy we split this lol since it was massive 4. Chicken Tortilla Soup: I love chicken tortilla soup and this one had plenty of flavor and chicken and avocado. For people who don't eat spice regularly this would be considered medium for spice level, for people who eat foods that are spiced regularly, it's pretty mild. 5. Chicken Tamale w green sauce: love tamales but chicken ones are hard cause they can sometimes dry out. Still good but added more salsa and a large portion. We also ordered the carne asada taco and taquitos, but they were ok! read more

This place has delicious food spectacular, friendly service. The Quesabirria is the best I've had anywhere, and everything is fresh and perfectly prepared. The portions are enormous; most entrées are really big enough for two people. They had a dessert special of chocolate cake and flan that was fantastic; I'm sure whatever dessert they have on any given day will be excellent. The service was friendly and attentive, Raúl was great. Thank you, we'll best back! read more

It was a pleasant experience to eat at Sabroso, which means tasty in Spanish. I parked right on Erie, in the neighborhood. It's BYOB but I forgot my cervesas, so maybe next time. Our friendly server mentioned that we can also bring in wine or tequila, it's fine with them. By the way, we received Great service, our server was very helpful in helping us order as first time diners. He explained that their tamales are made every two days, therefore, you can really taste the freshness. I got one chicken and one pork tamale and both were outstanding. Not dried out at all and filled with their respective protein. The tortilla chips come with two fiery sauces, my mouth is watering just thinking of the heat. My carne asada taco had a ton of protein, and my carnitas taco had even more. The steak tampiquena came out sizzling and hot, I transferred it to a clean plate so it wouldn't over cook. We sat next to families on a Sunday afternoon, they're certainly popular. read more

This is right around the corner and one of our regular spots. Steak, fish, and shrimp tacos are great, so is the carne asada special. But what we like the best is the peruano beans either as a side or in the bean and cheese burrito. Unique and should not be missed. Place is small and busy, and has a smaller outdoor seating area. Staff is always friendly. read more

Its super good. The staff is the best super nice the food is amazing. It is a favorite of mine. My favorite dishes are the enchiladas and the pozole. The house salsas are amazing too. Its great. read more

This is the best Mexican in Chicago. Their burrito, their beans, their fajitas, everything. Not only is it the best, it is the most reasonable and it is BYOB. Hands-down, a top-notch experience. The staff is awesome too. read more

One of my top 5 go to restaurants in the city, not just for Mexican food, but for the best quality & customer service in the West Loop! Salute to Juan "The T Shirt King" and the crew! read more

Trash. I try to support small, local shops as much as I can and places like this really make me regret it. I ordered delivery and it was fulfilled directly by their staff. I took almost 30 minutes AFTER the max delivery time to get to me, and I do not live far. The tacos al pastor were basically inedible-- they were cold, poorly seasoned, and the tortillas had completely dissolved. The tortilla soup was an awful oily mess. And of course because they don't keep the tortilla chips separate from the broth for delivery, it was just a mush. The carne asada was at least half decent. But the rice and beans they came with them were really an embarrassment. And y'all couldn't have thrown in a small order of chips or extra set of tortillas with my $60 order...? read more

Food is delicious and affordable! It's a small little laid back spot, nothing fancy, but great food. They bring chips & salsa to the table which is a plus. I got the chicken (roja) tamale and pork (verde) tamale which is half eaten in this photo. Serving size is large! Pork tamale was mg favorite, I will be back. read more

This place is my new favorite Mexican restaurant in the city. Juan did an excellent job taking care of us, recommending his favorites. The skirt steak tacos were perfection. Also loved the chicken tortilla soup. The house made salsa and chips were spectacular. No, I am not related to anyone who owns this restaurant or works here. Sabrosi! is a true secret gem. read more

Came here after googling for places near by for dinner. The food was delicious. We tried the carne asada and the tilapia ranchera with shrimp. Both good but the ranchera was flavorful...even my kid liked the shrimp and fish. Kids got the cheese quesadilla which was sharable for 2 little kids. It's a win when the food is good and the kids ate without screens or fussing! Looking forward to coming back. Service was very hospitable. read more

FOOD WAS SO COLD AND MEAT TASTED SWEET. The water had no ice it was room temperature looked like faucet water rice was cold and beans were cold over all food was nasty and I don't recommend read more

I love a good taco. My friend and I wanted to get some food to catch up during our lunch breaks, and Sabroso became the destination. It's a warm, home-field vibe, and the food smelled so good as you walked in the door. Our waitress was very polite and accommodating to my questions. Since we were in lunch, I kept it very simple with two steak tacos and a delicious coffee. The tacos were seasoned very well. My friend got the green chicken pozole which looked terrific, and she said it was great. It was a very hefty portion, so if you're looking for something to take with you to eat later, this is a perfect choice. Over, an excellent first outing at this very modest spot would be back again if in the area. 4 out of 5 read more

This place reminded me of my grandmas house. The carne asada taco was just like home! The green pozole was yummy and cozy. The overall food was 10/10. The waiter was very polite and kind. He made a brand new table for us to sit, so we wouldn't have to wait. They also had fresh horchata and Jamaica! read more

It's been a while since I've been here, but the food is just too good. The portion sizes are generous -- we even ended up taking a lot home. We had the Homemade Guacamole & Chips -- the guac was perfect, absolutely loved it. I can't recall the other dishes we ordered, but this place is definitely a must-visit. read more

I met friends here for happy hour. Margaritas were great. My friend recommended the pastor tacos that were awesome with homemade tortillas. The service was friendly and efficient. The ambiance here is casual and the restaurant is great for groups too. I will need back read more

Been looking for great enchiladas around the city and they're very hard to find, so was super excited to see Sabroso has a few on their menu! We ordered enchiladas, a crunchy taco and pazole. The taco was fine, but wouldn't come here for that when there's so many great taco spots around. Enchilada and pazole were great, authentic & massive plates of food. read more

My husband and I were looking for a restaurant to eat during our break exploring the different galleries for CXW Chicago.

The stay was super welcoming. I'm glad we finally found a great place for comfort Mexican food. read more

First impressions? Ha, I've been here many times and the folks who work here are great! I just inhaled a steak California burrito, and had to fight my dog to avoid him from eating it Lots of people on dates and outside seating available too. Check them out! read more

Attentive service, enormous and tasty portions. I haven't been back because I can't eat that much! Street parking with meters might make certain times difficult to patronize the place. Limited seating -- carryouts recommended. Clean and cheerfully decorated dining room. Reasonably priced. Unreservedly recommended. read more

Such a pleasant surprise! No one in our group of four had ever eaten here before. The service here was top notch! It was only topped by the great food. Sadly, I only got a picture of my own meal. I especially loved the tacos and guacamole. The rice was very good. Actually everything was and we all enjoyed our meals. The portions are generous. I ended up filling up on the delicious guacamole and fresh warm chips. Our group also shared a tamale that was very good. We did not realize it is BYOB, but we will know for next time. There WILL be a future visit to this great Mexican restaurant. FYI, they also have take out. Highly recommend!! read more

Sabroso! Mexican Grill - One steak taco and one pork, with a side of black beans and rice. - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Have driven by this many times without realizing how much of a gem it is. Stopped in for dinner on a Tuesday night and they weren't super busy for dine in but were doing a steady take out business although dine in did get busier when we were finishing up. Complimentary chips and salsa for dine in and it's BYOB! The server even brought us glasses with salted rims and limes for the margarita we brought in. We ordered a side of guac to go with our chips and the guac was so fresh! For my entree I ordered chicken fajitas and OMG they were so delicious. Probably some of the best fajitas I've had. Portion size was huge too so I had leftovers. My fiancé ordered the California burrito which was the largest burrito I've ever seen. He was raving about how good it was too. Service was outstanding too. Overall, highly recommend. Can't wait to go back! read more

Sabroso! Mexican Grill - Chicken Fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is a chain restaurant that feels more like an independent. We were referred here to kill time and have dinner before a drinking date. Everything started great, beginning with the greeting from Juan, who seemed to sincerely want to make sure we had everything we needed and that we were enjoying things. The complimentary chips, green salsa and bean dip with red salsa were a terrific start. We then got a 12 oz tortilla soup, a chicharones taco a la carte and one (of 3 offered) of the specials, the quesabirria platter (3 delicious tacos with consommé and garnishes). Everything was really good and the prices were very reasonable. They also have both red and green pozole offered daily and are on delivery services. I'm really excited to try the pozole and if you're in the area and need a bite, definitely check it out. No alcohol but I think they're BYO. read more

Sabroso is one of my favorite Mexican restaurant. There is a Sabroso in Orange County, California but this place is slightly better in my opinion. If you want authentic and delicious, you gotta come here. Everything we had was absolutely amazing. Best Mexican food I had in a long time. The staff here are all wonderful and they made us feel like family. I love this place. read more

You get what you pay for here. In my opinion cheap prices mean low quality ingredients. Given chips with a salsa roja and verde to start. For our entrees we split a California burrito and the carne asada fries (chorizo instead). The burrito wasn't wrapped very well and a bit greasy. It had a good balance of steak, guac, and beans, but I honestly couldn't taste the fries inside. The chorizo fries were absolutely covered in cheese, sour cream, and pico. The chorizo was fine and the fries got pretty soggy but that's expected given the amount of ingredients on top. Also, got two nice big dollops of guac. Both dishes got to a point where we couldn't eat any more since the flavors were tiring. With Mexican good there's a very high floor, but this place lacked additional flavor. I felt that little seasoning was used and the food relied heavily on oil for flavor. Cheap and filling but that's it. read more

THE BEST FOOD AND SERVICE! I took my family here and they were amazed with how quickly the food came out and how big the portions were! We got the wet California burrito (red sauce), carne asada fries, enchiladas, tamales, al pastor taco, and the ultimate fajitas! The horchata drink is the right amount of sweet and it pairs nicely with our spicy salsa. They even provided us with a complimentary dessert: Sabroso Bunelos Holes. Don't walk, run.

My girlfriend and I decided to get a bite to eat in West Town and rather than try the regular hot dog spot I convinced her to try Sabroso for both of our 1st time! This place did not disappoint, amazing food for a great value price! The one thing that stood out the most was our server Raul, he was very polite and tentative to our needs and he was very knowledgeable with the menu, he even was able to adjust my burrito to a burrito bowl and get half steak and half alpastor in a drop of a hat, we will be coming back for the great eats and the amazing customer service! Raul is a 5 star server!! read more

An amazing restaurant. We were in the area and relied on Yelp to help find a Mexican It is a very unassuming corner, neighborhood restaurant. We walked in to a small restaurant, but were greeted so warmly. Before we had settled fresh chips and two homemade salsas were served. They offer many selections and our waiter was so helpful. We started with a pork tamale appetizer. It was freshly made and was impressive. One of the owners brought us another salsa he wanted us to try. It was too spicy for most of us, fiery and hot. My husband had the carne asada tacos . Three tacos filled with a generous portion of steak. I had the Al Pastor burrito. It was packed with pork and I barely could finish half of it, because it was massive. My son had enchiladas and my daughter had Camarones a la Diabla, sautéed shrimp. We had a wonderful experience, service was outstanding and we felt as if we were in a Mexican home. The hospitality was impressive. Highly recommend, read more
