My spouse and I tried Sabino's Mexican Cocina for the first time today, and honestly, we were so…read moreimpressed. You can tell this is a true family-owned restaurant, and that personal touch makes a huge difference. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with the biggest smiles. Sabino and his family made us feel welcome right away, and the service from his daughters was absolutely wonderful. They were friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. And the FOOD... We started with the chips and queso, and that queso was easily one of the best I've had in a long time. You can taste that it's made in-house, and the jalapeños on the side were the perfect touch. I ordered the Enchiladas Al Carbon, and they were GOOD AF. The fajita meat was flavorful and tender, and the enchiladas, beans, and rice were all delicious. Even the sides stood out, which says a lot because I'm usually more focused on the main dish. My spouse ordered the chicken mole enchiladas and absolutely loved them. The mole had so much flavor, and was already talking about wanting them again. We also had margaritas. I had one on the rocks and my spouse had a frozen margarita. Both were delicious and, thankfully, they weren't shy with the tequila. Definitely a good margarita! What really stood out to us, though, was the hospitality. There's something special about eating somewhere where the owners and their family are actually there, taking care of their customers and putting their heart into the restaurant. You don't always get that at the bigger Mexican restaurants. If you're in the Humble/Atascocita area, PLEASE give Sabino's a try. This is exactly the kind of local, family-owned business that deserves our support. Great food, strong margaritas, friendly people, and that welcoming feeling like you're eating at someone's family table along with great music playing. We will absolutely be back!

We went to a geocaching event in Humble, did some more geocaching in the area, and as we were…read moredriving home, found we were hungry. About five minutes before we passed Sabino's, I opened the app and saw the reviews. Great timing! We entered, and there was a customer standing in the front. We asked her if Sabino's was good and she began to rave about their food! She was right! Firstly, the service was extraordinary. Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We ordered mixed fajitas for two. Yummy! Hot, seasoned well, and the tortillas...amazing. The guacamole was SO GOOD, I thought about ordering some to take home, but we live two hours away. We have a ton of leftovers, which I'm probably going to break out around midnight. Don't sleep on this place! We'll be back!

Food was fresh. Drinks were good and service was great! Lex was amazing. Usually the service sucks…read morehere but I've been impressed lately. Then I came back for dinner and Destiny and Kristine were amazing!

this was supposed to be the redemption arc. so let's start from the beginning. about a month ago…read morewas our first visit. the food was great, but the timing was bad which resulted in our food being brought out cold. no worries. we didn't complain, however the manager came out and asked how our meal was. i let her know the food was good, albeit cold. she apologized profusely and offered a free appetizer for next time. we were eager to come back because again, the food IS good, so we went back yesterday for lunch. what should have been an easy in and out meal turned into a 2 hour disappointment. at the request of my partner we sat at the bar because service is usually better/quicker at the bar top. wrong. we arrived a little after noon and the ticket was created at 12:23 (as our receipt states). there was one party at the bar when we arrived but they had already closed out. after an hour we had our appetizers. an HOUR of being at the bar. we ordered the cajun empanadas, delicious, and a cup of gumbo and side salad to share. the gumbo was chock full of chicken, shrimp and crab. and no okra! a huge plus in my book. after the food was dropped off she didn't bother to ask us if we wanted to make our entree order so we had finished the appetizers before we even got our food order put in. it wasn't busy. at this point we were the only people at the bar and the restaurant had maybe 3 other tables. MAYBE. she wasn't inundated with guests. she was back and forth in the kitchen, on her phone, doing everything but being attentive. another party of ladies from a neighbouring establishment came to have lunch and were similarly vocal about the lack of service they received as well. my partner and i are both in the service industry so we're a bit more learned on the flow of things. he pushed me to make this review. multiple times. when he is that insistent, i know it was worse than i thought. and i thought it was plenty bad. she dropped our entrees and we had to ask for utensils (she only gave me a fork with the appetizers/salad and disappeared before we could ask for another). drinks came out at an alarmingly slow pace. from my partner; the bartender poured beer twice; no shaken cocktails, mostly frozen or poured drinks. this matters because had it been an issue with her having an overwhelming amount of tickets, leeway would absolutely be given. the food was amazing though. i got the $19 birthday boil and added dungeness crab. my sausage was over cooked and cold. everything else with my meal was perfection. the other entree ordered were the shrimp tacos with red beans and rice. he wasn't impressed with this meal or last. his words "i've tried two things that aren't seasonal and they were lacklustre." when we left i said we should have just gone through the drive thru. i wish i were joking.
