Amazing authentic Mexican food!! Best pupusas and dishes in DFW. Only feedback is there needs to be more waiters up front

This was delicious food! My kids even enjoyed food out of the norm. The staff were friendly and attentive and we will be back!

Great pupusas, curtido & salsa. Went for brunch on a Sunday morning and we were the only ones there as soon as they opened. Free chips and salsa were bomb. I had a cheese pupusa and a cheese and bean pupusa. Both super tasty. Husband had the fried egg breakfast and a side of casamiento which he really liked. I stole his plátanos and crema and they were also cooked perfectly. The waitress was friendly and attentively. Definitely recommend for pupusas. read more

EAT HERE! Authentic and delicious! What's find. The enchilada was a flavor explosion. Not the enchilada you are used to. The Pupusa Loco was CRaZY goods and huge. Yuca fries were legit and the "slaw" for each dish was a perfect addition. They had unique agua frescas which I did not try but wish I would have. Fast and lovely service. Wish I would have taken more pictures. I was hungry. read more

El Sabor Restaurant - Pupuso loco - Salvadoran Near Me - Keller, Texas

while i was looking for a place to get lunch, i was leaning towards a chain restaurant or fast food place. But i wanted to support local and small businesses, so i ended up here. Glad i did. This place is located in the back of the einstein bagels and next to any time fitness. Its hard to see from the street. If you dine in, they'll give you chips and salsa. i wanted to get horchata, but apparently they have an el salvadoran style one, which is vastly different than the mexican one. I didn't like it too much, so i opted for water. I ended up getting the crazy pupusa, a steak pupusa and a barbacoa taco. All the items were really filling, and i didn't finish my meal. I really enjoyed the crazy pupusa, its pretty much all the items they can stuff into a pupusa and its a lot bigger than the regular ones. shrimp, steak, etc.. The people working there are extremely friendly and nice. PS: they also have a very small store in the front of the restaurant for misc snacks. read more

Small mom & pop location in Keller. Little mix of Mexican & Salvadorean food. I strongly recommended you stop and try for yourself. The food is Yummy! I really enjoyed my Camarones a la Diabla & that loaded potatoe made it A+. Also tried the Papusas and they are all good, my favorite was the Mixta. Overall great delicious food all for a good price and cozy warm place. read more

Food was good, service was also good. Great selection and smaller location with a more local feel

Food was great. I had steak street tacos and pork tamales. The salsa verde and salsa roja had a nice kick, but not over the top.

Great spot in the Keller area- Very hole in the wall with excellent food. They are a small operation, so do not expect lightning fast service- but once you get the food you will fall in love with the place. We had gotten two pupusas, steak ranchero, fried plantains, and chips and salsa (which comes free of charge.) All the food was excellent and fresh, and definitely a refreshing change from the larger restaurants in the area. What stood out the most was the service- while there were several people in the restaurant at that time, our server came around regularly and asked how the food was and if we needed anything. I would definitely recommend El Sabor! read more

First time here, so I wanted to sample a variety of items. There are many large photos of the items on the walls, and all look very appetizing. It was difficult to choose. But, I saw a dish that looked much like a "sampler" platter, called the Plato Tipico (1 tamal de pollo, 1 papusa, 1 platano con crema, yuca con chicharron, and 1 pastelito). That sounded like a lot of food already, but I also ordered a single Enchilada Salvadorean. Of course, the meal began with Chips and Salsa, which were very much to my liking. The Yellow Corn Chips were crisp and the Salsa thick and a fair amount of spice at the finish. The food all arrived quite quickly, and all looked very appetizing, but the best presentation goes to the Enchilada Salvadorean (although it seemed more like a Tostada - so either enchiladas are different in El Salvador, or I ordered the wrong item! Nonetheless, my objective was to try a variety of items. I began with the papusa. I realize that plain papusas aren't, by themselves, abundantly flavorful but I would have liked a little more flavor in the accompanying cabbage and sauce. Next, I tried the Yuca Con Chicharron, which is served on a bed of mildly pickled red cabbage. Again, yuca isn't going to overwhelm you with flavor, but these are tender and a good dipped in the crema or some of the salsa. The pork was good, but a little crunchy. The Tamal definitely needs a sauce. I'm seeing a theme here! Maybe it's my American palate craving a sauce for everything, so I'll allow the benefit of the doubt. The tamale was very tender masa as well as the chicken inside. It also contained some chunk of potato. I liked the tamale, especially once I poured salsa over it! So, still not done! Time to try this "Enchilada" that was probably a Tostada. It looks great. Piled with chicken, tomato, avocado, cucumber, radish and half a hard-boiled egg. The problem was how to eat it? No way I could pick it up. I was forced to cut into it and then gather pieces of each ingredient to get a cohesive bite. Wow! The flavor was great! It all comes together really well, but it's not easy to eat. Some soft and some crunchy items together, make gathering each bite challenging. Still not done! One last item to try (besides Fried Plantains, which are always great, so we'll move past those). Finally, the Pastelito, which was probably the most flavorful bite on the plate. This thin, crisp corn fritter is filled with vegetables and tastes like I just broke open a really tasty pot pie. I could eat several of those! El Sabor is definitely not an "Americanized" taco spot. The menu is extensive, and full of original dishes that you won't find at many restaurants. They also serve breakfast all day, so even the pickier eaters should probably be able to find something to their liking, but it definitely has more than a few items for the adventurous foodies. read more

Stopped in to try this place for dinner. We were not disappointed! The pupusas are great, whatever the red sauce is that comes with them is amazing. I had an el pastor torta and my wife had barbacoa tacos. Both were very good. We will be back! read more

The caldo de res was very good. O have yet to try the shrimp cocktail but it looks good. All and all we will be back because it's always about the food. read more

i really was looking forward to trying this place out. I love the big photos of the food. Atmosphere was interesting. I wish them luck in this difficult time. We ordered pupses I am pretty sure I am misspelling that. They were good but they had a burnt smell in the car. I could have cooked them myself. Perhaps they were trying to get them out fast for us. We will come back and try more stuff. Please don't burn my food. I bet i can order cold next time and cook at home! Hope so. read more

this place rocks after getting tacos for taco Tuesdays a couple times. we have tried the bean and cheese papusa and burrito,, carnitas and barbacoa tacos and all were fabulous. prices are very reasonable, very unassuming interior/exterior and the people that work inside are very friendly. this is a place we will frequent going forward. read more

Pretty good first experience. I was surprised when I was greeted and told I could sit anywhere. So this place has table service now. Cool. Next, a menu was dropped off, along with some chips and salsa, and my drink order taken. Wasn't super hungry, but I was anxious to try this new place. The torta section of the menu caught my eye, and I wondered, "al pastor?" No, but there is fajita (steak ) option, so that's what I got. Very good sandwich, nicely seasoned and served with thinly cut, super delicious, French fries. Yum. Oh, and the chips were yummy too. Salsa seemed to be a mix of red and green. Not too spicy and quite good. Bottom line: Can't wait to try again! read more

The server was nice but the service slow. It's a small place that was kind of dark. One of us ordered steak fajitas and the other ordered steak and chicken fajitas. We ordered queso for an appetizer. This was our first time there. We were in the area and wanted to try something new. This had great reviews so we decided to go here. The queso was absolutely horrible. It tasted like fake American cheese that had been melted. We tried to force ourselves to eat it because it was $5 but we each only had 2 bites and couldn't eat more. A full bowl of cheese was left on the table when we left. Such a waste! The salsa was good but rather spicy. Only one of us could eat it. The beans were delicious. The rice was bland. We added them together it was better. Both the flour and corn tortillas were decent. Our servings were rather small for a $17 plate. I got 2 strips of chicken and 3 strips of steak. I wanted to like this place but both of us agreed we wouldn't return. The stars are for the tortillas and beans. read more

We loved this place! It's really a hidden gem. The decor and s modest but the food is outstanding. I had the Parrillada Combination and I cannot overstate how well prepared everything was. There were 4 different types of meat or seafood and they were all amazing. My husband had a variety of Pupusas and he enjoyed them all as well. I am not an expert on Salvadoran cuisine but this felt very authentic. They also had a little shop to sell imported foods from El Salvador. read more

Wow. While it might not look like much, El Sabor is cranking out some AWESOME food. My partner and I came in during late afternoon, and were one of two parties in the restaurant. We were promptly seated and were given chips and salsa. The chips were nicely fried and thin, and the salsa was fresh. A great start. We went with 2 pupusas as an appetizer, the steak and the chicken and cheese. Both were delightful, and we enjoyed the cabbage from the topping bar along with them. I went for the carne asada dish, and I received a huge plate of food. The meat was tender, the potato was cooked perfectly, and there were plenty of veggies. I enjoyed every bite. We then had fried plantains and creme for dessert. If you're not a big sweets person, this one would be ideal. They were fried well and not greasy. Overall we spent less than $40 for a huge meal. Service was good, and we felt welcome. Definitely would go again. read more

We tried a number of dishes and they were all delicious. Service was great. We will be returning.

So good! The caldo de res is the ultimate comfort food - a huge bowl of beef broth, w a variety of vegetables including corn, zucchini, potato, cabbage and yucca, 2 big chunks of tender beef. The soup was accompanied by a scoop of rice and 2 excellent tortillas - thicker than typical tortillas, with a good crust on the outside, almost like a nice pita. Definitely big enough for a meal. My FIL ordered the mojarra frito and loved it - a whole fried fish, this one was larger than you normally get at restaurants and he ate the whole thing. We also ordered the sampler platter - the yucca and pupusa were delicious but the chicken tamale and the pastelito were the stars. The tamale is incredible - masa is soft like custard and it is stuffed w not just chicken but potatoes and I think a raja too. The pastelito was filled with yam I think (or maybe carrot) and the flavor was amazing. Aguas frescas are good here as well. Overall a fantastic place for Salvadoran cuisine w some Mexican mixed in (and we didn't even try the tacos - next time!) read more

The restaurant is spotless and the staff cleaned it throughout our visit. My wife ordered the salmon with asparagus rice and loved it. I had the crispy chicken tacos and they were full of lean, white meat. Both meals were tasty and well prepared. Lastly, the salsa was on point. Spicy, flavorful, and freshly made. read more

Closed on sundays!!! Food is really awesome but signs and yelp are not accurate. Sampler is my next meal. Shrimp are really big. read more

Large menu with all sorts of traditional dishes. Everything we had was fresh and flavorful. We will definitely be back.

Accidentally happened upon this gym today! Behind the Sonic in Keller. Amazing Salvadorian food. My first time having Papusas and they were deeeelicious! Barbadian taco was excellent as well. Our waitress, Anita, was lovely!! We will be back! read more

I think we were the first customers they've had today because of the Texas winter storm! We just moved to the area and this pregnant hispanic NEEDS to find all the good authentic spots. First craving, pupusas. It's a quaint spot, small on the inside and gives off that "authentic" family-owned vibe. The chips & salsa they start you with are good, but has no spice. I love spice, so of course I wish it had a little kick to it. The horchata is 100% authentic and homemade. You can taste it on first sip, the texture and flavor of the rice. It's sweet, cinnamon-y, refreshing. We ordered bean & cheese, cheese, jalapeño, and chicken & cheese pupusas. They come with the cole slaw and salsa to put on top. Salsa was not spicy again, but flavorful. Very satisfying, the cheese pulls were immaculate. And they're HUGE! I got full off of 1. My husband got full off of 3. We'll be back. read more

pupusas are AMAZING! i had a chicken and cheese and a spinach one and they were amazinggggg! Looks like on sundays they have them on special for $1.50 so def gonna come back on a sunday. i also had the refried beans but I wasn't really a fan of the beans, they were very runny and I prefer mine to still be semi solid. read more

We were looking for pupusas on a cold night and happened into this restaurant where I promptly changed my order when I saw their beef soup. We did also get pupusas but for me the beef soup stole the show. It was all incredible! read more

If you are looking for authentic Salvadoran pupusas look no further. This small family run restaurant provides all that and a basket of chips with fresh salsa. I highly recommend their bean & cheese pupusa, the chicken & cheese popusa and their pastor torta. The staff is friendly and attentive. No frills, just yummy authentic Salvadoran and Mexican food. read more

A treasure for Keller. Unpretentious, friendly, and just a neighborhood ethnic restaurant. If you like Mexican food, you'll love this. It's like having both your grandma and mom in the kitchen cooking personally for you. Even the baked potato was magical. read more

First time stopping in! I enjoyed the plato típico which had a little bit of everything as well as some pupusas. The sign on the door says that they're #1 in pupusas, and it's accurate. The horchata is also excellent. 10/10 I'll be back! read more
