A very nice pleasant place to eat. Good ambiance which seems a notch above most Mexican…read morerestaurants. They immediately served chips and salsa (one mild, one "spicy"). Sadly the mild salsa was an over blended conglomeration with little distinctive flavor. They should walk a block down to Angelica's and steal their mild salsa/pico which is one of the best I have ever had. The salsa and chips are your first introduction/impression to the meal, so they must be done right. I ordered the Carne Asada and my wife order a single fish taco ( She is a small eater). My Carne had a very good charred flavor. It was slightly over cooked and came out a little tough. It would have been great had it been tenderized. The rice was acceptable and the refried beans were quite good. Now, here is where it falls apart. My wife's fish taco was "fishy" which means a strong flavor. When our server came over we told him of the "fishy" flavor. He asked if she liked it and she said no. His response was "sorry about that." Really? It was a five dollar taco not a $75 filet at a high end steakhouse . The server should have been empowered by management to immediately rectify the situation and asked; "Would you like something else?" How simple. But "sorry about that" is the truly worst response you can give to a customer. Management at Sabor should address this and train their staff to satisfy the customer. The food could have been five star gourmet, but you never treat a customer like that, never. I couldn't give Sabor higher than a three because of this terrible breach in customer service. We won't return.

Went in and multiple people had shrimp or seafood cocktails that were monster sized. Just went for a burrito and it was delicious. Fast forward to last night, and again staying in a nearby hotel and went to Las Palmas. It's nothing to look at...just a food stand in a gas station. But the lady who took our order was friendly and nice and helpful. Wife ordered a quesadilla with shredded chicken. I got a carne asada burrito with rice and guacamole. They also have a salsa bar...I got the salsa verde and some of the spicy jalapeños, carrots, and onions. Everything tasted great. Lots of carne asada and guacamole in the burrito. The salsa was perfect, and my wife also enjoyed hers. Neither of us could finish. Total cost with a large drink was $26. Overall great value and very good food. Much better than the standard fast food options.

I…read morewent recently and ordered a Cali burrito: carne asada, fries, cheese, pico de gallo, crema & guac. For starters, it was filled with potatoes off the plancha, not fries. From there, it gets worse. There was an ample amount of cheese, however, there was no pico de gallo, cream or guac. I thought that there might have been a communication error, or maybe their Cali burrito isn't what I had come to expect. So, I decided to try their sister restaurant off of Brigham to make sure. Here I got pretty much the same thing except this time it had pico & crema. Still disappointing. When I think back about the place on Convention, I have to say I was also a little bothered about their kitchen practices. I saw the girl in the front of house and the cook eating while working. As for some better alternatives with a proper Cali burrito (in no particular order): - Monchis on River - Tacos Plaza on River - Aimars on Main As for Las Palmas, I can say that the rolled tacos are good. Also, I will be going back to try other menu options, like the carne asada fries and the bean and cheese burro. Let's hope that these other items sing.
