This Was NOT IT!! I am usually easy on reviews but, this is the wurst food I have eaten in a long…read morelong time. We order the protein chicken and steak tacos, a burrito, rice, guacamole. When I pulled up I saw the rating for the restaurant was "OKAY" I should have turns around then! Ya'll I was so disappointed with this food. First, the rice tasted like it was old like it was in the freezer and reheated. The guacamole looked old and had no flavor and big chunks of onions. Next, the protein tacos had the best taste but, again had an old taste to it. Lastly, the burrito tasted and I am not exaggerating like some type of cleaner. Whatever, that taste was I couldn't even swallow the bite I took. I am literally sitting here praying that I do not get food poisoning. I don't know if we caught them on an off night. I see all other reviews saying it was great but, for me personally I will never come back here. The staff was friendly and that goes a long way but, I hope they improve their food and receive a better rating one day.

Hey everyone, Taco…read moreTuesday was on this week!! I had some amazing authentic tacos!!! Come here NOW!! Order anything and you will be HOOKED!! I ordered the chicken birra tacos cooked extra crispy with a side of rice and guacamole sheesh!! I felt like I was transported back in time as a kid enjoying Mexican food in El Paso Texas. Everything's bite was good! Rice was flavorful and moist. This spot is a must if you live in Lakewood area! So Good!

Went to Taqueria El Sabres with my NCO for his last day at work. First time here, and I'm glad I…read morecame and tried it. From the outside, it looks like there's no dine-in, but they actually have tables and chairs inside, plus bar stools outside. Service was quick, and the server was courteous. I ordered the carne asada burrito--typical large size. I've had Mexican burritos in different states and countries, and this one stands out. I liked the moist, warm feel. It tasted freshly prepped with freshly cooked ingredients. Giving it 4 stars. Only downside: the parking lot is tiny. If I come back and can't find a spot, I'd be pissed. We parked at the store next door, even though it was clear we weren't welcome to. Still did it anyway. Highly recommend they invest in more parking spaces. Food's worth it, but parking needs an upgrade.

Back with a review update yearrrsss later and happy to report a five star upgrade! We'e been back…read morequite a few times but our most recent visit was with a larger group and we had an awesome time. First off, service here is always great. Bartenders are always nice and food always comes quick. We started off by sitting in one of the larger booths and kicked our visit off with some drinks and an app. They have a great local selection of beers and tasty sounding cocktails. I tried a sip of my friend's spicy marg and it was TRULY spicy but it was absolutely delicious. For our app we tried the Corn Queso and it was super good! Definitely recommend. My husband and I split a couple of entrees to try something new as we always get the same stuff. This time we got the Holy Burrito with steak, and the Monster S'Mash Burger. The Holy Burrito is MASSSIVE. Easily able to share this and only this between 2 people. Stuffed with all the same usual goodness of a burrito, but topped with a luscious chorizo gravy, pico de gallo, and guac. Absolutely superb, can't recommend enough. The burger was also good but I wouldn't quite call it a smash. The fries are super crispy and yummy! After we wrapped up eating we went into the other half of the building where they have pinball machines, a pool table, and a photo booth. It's a fun spot to vibe and wrap up with another drink. If you haven't been to this Tacoma icon yet, you're seriously missing out.

I think I can speak for my group, that they really enjoyed their food and drinks too! The ambiance is moody and gothic, don't let the name fool you. The bartender and waitress were very friendly, and while ordering at the bar was way, the central area did get pretty crowded later in the night. After reading other reviews, I see I missed out on the photobooth :(. Oh wells, I'll try it out next time!

You order at…read morethe counter and they have a great great salsa/sides bar (think pickled veggies and onions, slaw, limes for garnish, jalapenos) and if you're eating in, they give you chips while you wait; your food is brought right to your table. I'm making it my goal to try everything on the menu but it's going to take a while. The burritos are huge and delicious and loaded with fillings and they don't skimp on the meat. Birria and Chile Colorado are my favorites, chicken is plentiful but tends to be a tiny bit on the bland side so the salsas come in handy for that. The platos are HUGE. The refried beans are the best I've had anywhere. Tacos are also great. Have not tried the fish ones yet but I have a friend who's currently addicted so I'm assuming they're good as well. I have not encountered a miss on the menu yet. Looking forward to my next visit!

Finally tried this taqueria after hearing so many good things about it and I was a little…read moredisappointed. We had adobada, asada and chicken tacos, added a side of fried onion and serrano pepper. The adobada meat was ok, chicken was good and our favorite was the asada. I didn't like the default salsa they put on the tacos, would've preferred just onion and cilantro. In fact I didn't like any of the salsas they offered, the green salsa was the only decent one and I'm sure the orange looking salsa was on its way out, it tasted and smelled funky. Customer service was great. We might come back just for asada tacos but maybe not.

Great Spot for Al Pastor Chilaquiles…read more The moment I walked in, I knew this place had something special going on. The Al pastor chilaquiles were perfectly balanced, with tender, flavorful pork. Every bite was delicious, not heavy or overdone, just genuinely good cooking. The atmosphere adds a lot, too. The art on the walls gives the whole place a warm, authentic personality. You can tell someone cared about creating a space that feels welcoming and rooted in culture.

Got the asada fries that were not as filling, but at a reasonable price point. Staff took us in even though they were getting ready to clean up, but they made clear which table booths to sit at while they carried out with that cleaning duty. Love the mariachi music in the background and the bright lights that really woke you up. We needed that as we were about to drive back home almost an hour more. I like that the bathroom is big, too. Very spacious restaurant and would go here again if I need a place that opens late for decompression from a high-energy event

We ordered a BRC burrito and Lengua tacos. Both were very good. They make the corn tortillas to order and the Lengua was cooked great, nice and tender. The beans and rice were very good too.

Other than that--no need to return.

I visited this restaurant many years ago and was glad to find a Mexican place that had a salsa bar…read more Moved back into the area recently and was happy to see they are still around. I enjoy Mexican places that feel authentic, feel like a genuine in Korea, and also have the option for you to get some salsa, onions, and radishes, along with limes to go along with your food . I wish they had a little bit more variety to the salsas in terms of taste, complexity, and heat... but I still appreciate that they have this option I have had tacos here, burritos, and other items and I feel like usually they are pretty spot on Although for a Mexican place, this place is extremely expensive. When I do find a Mexican place that meets my needs, I will probably go to that place instead of this place as I think it is ridiculous to charge the amount they are charging for the ingredients that go into Mexican food. Ambiance wise, it looks like a typical Taqueria Nonetheless, I think this is a place that is definitely worth trying
