El cocinero/ ra debe darle mas sabor y crear una verdadera salsa, MAs espesa. Lo mismo sucede con el Bistec Encebollado. Cero salsa, demasiado agua y poco sazon o sabor . Deben hacer un esfuerzo en mejorar en esa area. Recuerden que no estamos comprando soapa, es carne de res. Debe tener salsit's, no Tanta agua. Al Cuajito igual!! mas sabor, menos agua. Esto es Una critica Constructiva. Estoy seguro tienen capacidad para lograrlo. No hagan caso omiso, pues hay MAs gente hablando de eso, pero no lo postean en esta pagina! Gracias .

The ceviche was super salty. I really couldn't eat it. It was full of octopus and had like 2 shrimp. I liked the steak and onions it was ok but not write-home worthy. The alcapurria was where it was at. It tastes just like Grandma used to make. I highly recommend trying this if you come here. I think if I ever come back I'll try different menu items before writing them off. Like I said the workers were so sweet. Maybe I need to try their desserts next trip.

Very disappointing experience…read more $16.75 for a takeout plate that was mostly rice with a small portion of meat is already disappointing for the price. What made it worse was the food quality. They had just brought out a fresh batch of yellow rice and changed the buffet container, but I was still served old, hard rice. Why serve customers stale rice when fresh rice is available? For what I paid, I expected fresh food, not leftovers that were hard and unappetizing. The customer service was equally disappointing. I understand keeping food covered on the buffet to maintain its temperature, but when I asked to see what they had available, I was repeatedly told to look at the menu. I explained that my son is nonverbal and autistic and relies on seeing the actual food so he can point to what he wants. The owner's response was that they would only open one container at a time upon request and asked what I wanted to see. Not everyone can simply read a Spanish food menu and make a choice. Some customers, especially those with special needs, rely on visual choices to communicate. A little patience, understanding, and compassion would have gone a long way. If it weren't for the fact that my son needed to eat before school drop-off, I would have walked right out. Between the poor customer service, disappointing portion, and old, hard rice, this was absolutely not worth $16.75. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be rushing back.

Upon entering- you notice most how clean everything looks. This is awesome because us Latinos/as eat with our eyes. At first when I came I thought it was Puerto Rican food. Then I saw the Chivo (goat) on the menu board and heard the calming bachata music on the tv on the wall and I thought to ask the owner if this was Dominican food. It turns out it is Dominican food with a touch of Puerto Rican dishes! The best of both worlds! Additionally- the food is not set up cafeteria style like a lot of Spanish restaurants- The food is under heat lamps behind the counter. For some people that's off putting because they assume it's not fresh or tastes like it is has been sitting under the lamps for days - not so! Everything is fresh and amazing! They have all the classics; yellow rice and gandules, white rice, habichuelas rosada, pernil, baked chicken. They have quite a few of guisadas (stews) to pick from all loaded with onions, peppers etc; chicken, pork, beef, oxtail, as well as viandes. They have empanadas, alcapurrias, sorrullitos de maiz, rellenos de papa (potato balls) in a smaller case. My favorite is the goat aka the Chivo. It is so fall apart tender -I've had it three times already! The young gentleman behind the counter has always waited on me. He is super polite, quick to smile and humors my bad Spanglish with none of the pretentious ways that I have experienced in other Spanish restaurants. This is really important to me because it tells me of the love that they have for their food and the respect that they have for their customers. I've come in on different times of day and the food is always fresh tasting. Prices are very reasonable for the portions. During this last visit my husband had their pasteles. Oh so good! They also had sancocho. - I've asked the owners and they said that their business is steadily picking up. They are working on getting money for advertising. Most of their traffic comes from word of mouth There is another Spanish restaurant in Chicopee that has a similar name-(Sabor Latino) -but I very much feel that the cooking style are night and day. No insult is meant to Sabor as they really are two different types of food in my humble opinion. I really hope this small business owner is able to make it. Latino(a) restaurants turn over a lot in Western Mass. I hope this one stays!
