The food here is amazing! I used to come all the time when I worked in the plaza and I came for the first time again today after being gone for go long and the food never misses. Great customer service and I'm always satisfied! read more

Good service and food is the best a mis hijos les encanta y su servicio rapido y limpio

We walked in for the 99¢ kids meal on Wednesday special and were very excited to see how friendly the staff is. They are super friendly with the kids and try to look for the best way to save you some money bundling things together. The food is delicious and fresh! Thanks so much! The restaurant is very clean and in a great location. read more

Everyone was so kind and helpful and the food was really tasty and affordable. They have specials most days and their empanadas are great.

Sabor never disappoints! The nachos and arepas are easily my favorite menu items. The food comes out quickly, the staff are friendly, and the atmosphere is very causal. Also, the pineapple salsa is worth trying, it's the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I highly recommend to anyone looking for good, casual food in Durham! read more

Been coming here for a while. Always good, but my meal tonight was excellent. Chips were light and crispy. Build your own burrito was the best I've ever had here! I'll definitely be back again soon. Great work, Sabor! read more

Food was hot fresh and a good portion for the money spent. Fast service and a well kept clean restaurant.

I came for lunch on a Wednesday and was warmly greeted when I entered. The service is very friendly and quick. I ordered a Sabor Especial Burrito with chorizo, and they definitely pack the chorizo with a good amount of spice, which I appreciate. The burrito also had rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream, pico, and guacamole. Good flavors and generous portions. It was very filling and reasonably priced for the size of the burrito. That's all I had for lunch and was very satisfied with the amount. It is a great location near the Southpoint area and parking was easy to find. There was plenty of indoor seating, the bathroom was clean, and the ambiance is very casual with TVs playing in the background. It's pretty kid- and family-friendly. Other items on the menu sounded interesting, so I hope to return and try more items on the menu. read more

I went here for lunch for lunch today-my first time coming in! My lil sister has been plenty of times and recommended the spot and I'm so glad that we came in. It's not a very big space, great customer service when we walked up to order. My sister ordered the kids meal; a chicken quesadilla that came with a drink and she ordered a side of French fries. I ordered the birria taco meal and the they were delicious! I got myself a fountain drink and it came with some tortilla chips that were great. I loved the variety of options at the salsa bar. I thought they were very reasonably priced and I am looking forward to going back and trying more menu items. My sister even shared with me that they have a kids eat free night. Thank you for a great lunch experience!!! read more

The food is always tasty & the people always friendly. I love the empanadas, especially the pineapple and guava. If you get it, make sure to squeeze the lime wedge on it & dip it. And signup for the customer rewards. The chips & queso are worth it. read more

What an incredible place to eat!! We have been blown away by their excellent food and service. Everything on the menu is delicious and you can tell the people who work here love their job. Their passion shows in their food!! The setting is great for quick lunches or family dinners. We couldn't recommend Sabor more!! read more

Can't find any fault and I'm definitely a picky person. The food was great, the serving sizes were pretty good. The service was super super nice and attentive even though it's a counter order system. Clean tables and the margs were great for $6?! Can't beat that. I have an empanada with chicken and chips and a coconut tajin marg and a strawberry marg. Both were good and didn't skimp on the alcohol but not overwhelmingly alcoholic. Really enjoyed the visit! read more

No wonder this restaurant has 600 reviews and a nearly perfect score. We stopped by and we're assisted by Andreas. His service was impeccable, the way he greeted us was one that made us feel welcome and his assistance while navigating the menu was extremely helpful. It was our first time so we didn't know what to expect. He gave suggestions as well as told us all about the business. The way he engaged with us. You think he was the owner. After eating, he came over and brought games for the kids to play and made them feel right at home. We look forward to coming back and supporting this business. If the owner reads this message, though you have an amazing team, and Andreas is at the head of it doing great work at the front counter. read more

Great food, great value! Wide variety of options but all of them are done well. I'm a fan of the empanada meal, barbacoa ftw

Fast service, delicious tacos! Friendly folks. Churros to die for! Did I mention the fresh guacamole? Very good! Also, clean and bright environment to enjoy your meal. read more

"Good strip mall Mexican food, efficient for takeout" I was in the neighborhood and saw the positive Yelp reviews, so I ordered takeout from here to give it a shot for a Thursday night dinner. The food was prepared really quickly (I was there in just a few minutes), and it was ready upon arrival. I got the Sabor Especial Burrito, without sour cream, and it hit the spot perfectly. Guacamole was good, chicken tasted fresh, and all mixed well. Size was good too-- just what I needed. I'm curious about other more nuanced selection items, like arepas, but didn't try them this time. Short review, since this was a straightforward hit, but I'd happily get it again. Not the best Mexican food in town, but for easy, fast, accurate, affordable takeout, it's perfect. read more

Had a late impromptu drive to our daughters in Durham to help her out with an issue and grabbed dinner from this place. She had never heard of it even though she's been in the area for several years but the food and service were exceptional. Again I really love places where the employees go out of their way to be friendly and helpful and this place did not disappoint. We ordered the taco box family meal and I wasn't really sure what to expect but it came with several different sides and three proteins and tortilla chips and tortillas and we ordered extra churros and some queso dip. When I got to the restaurant to pick it up I'm sure the look on my face was quite hysterical because when I first saw the size of the box that I was taking home I thought it was enough food for about 50 people. All of it tasted like it was very fresh and it was very warm the tortillas were definitely housemade and everything was really good. As a bonus they have a salsa bar where you can try about six different types of salsa that they make. The food here was as good as any Latin restaurant that you would sit down in but it was very convenient to just be able to run up there and pick it up and bring it back to my daughter's apartment. I know she will definitely visit this place again because it's only a few miles from where she lives. read more

The food is very flavorful. It is a cute, casual spot to get a quick bite. The employees were nice and helpful. It is close to Southpoint without having to deal with the hustle and bustle of too much of the mall traffic. read more

I was on the way to my favorite coffee shop for a sandwich and some writing, but passed SABOR and thought "Why not?" When you enter, the counter to order is straight ahead, with a case of beers and specialty drinks behind the glass. I chose a bottle of XX Amber. There are about ten 4-top tables and booths set up in a random pattern. To the right there is a salsa bar and a soft drink machine. It is very clean, with no trash on floors or tables. On this Monday late afternoon, I was one of three groups, so it was pretty quiet. They have a very extensive menu and can make pretty much anything you want with Latin flavors - bowls, arepas, tacos, burritos, whatever. I got the elote and their quesobirria, which is two tacos de birria with cheese griddled inside. The tacos were served with a cup of birria chili sauce, which had plenty of chunks and flavor. Dipping the fresh corn tacos into the sauce and enjoying all the deep flavor was amazing. Two for $10. The elote was nicely done and very good, but it didn't taste grilled. It was served with the corn sweet and the toppings thick, but it tasted like the corn was just steamed or boiled, not charred on a grill. $5 Altogether with tip, it was just over $20. I left very full, but it seemed like a lot for the money. Or maybe I just was still irritated about the corn not being grilled. I'm sure I'll be back. Wish they had WiFi so I could work here with a beer and nachos. read more

Solid place. We get the Cuban bowls regularly & they have lots of tasty ingredients, textures & flavors. They also have great specials (like huge nachos to-go for the Super Bowl), which entices us to branch out from our usual orders. I always get their chips & queso and both are so good! I'm only knocking a star off because I've been getting the al pastor as an extra protein on my Cuban bowls (like in addition to the proteins it comes with) and it's been kind of gristly lately. But everything else has been so great! Also it's worth noting that the staff is so nice, friendly, and helpful. Go give it a try! read more

Delicious options! Beef quesadilla was so juicy, kids cheese quesadilla was a win. Yuca fries were so tasty. And the churros ! Service was excellent. read more

Went here multiple times for their Taco Tuesday special (discounted basic tacos) but their more special, more loaded tacos are more satisfying. The regular beef taco we had was bland; we tasted better quality ones from a taco truck that serves this kind of taco. In out latest, when we went to order, the El Salvadorian cashier was energetically friendly, and answered my girl's questions well. We ordered 5 tacos in total (4 regular beef, and the more special $4 Shrimp), a shredded beef empanada, and chips. They have a self-serve salsa bar similar to Moe's with 5 different salsas, placed from mild to spiciest, and we usually get some of the first 3. There were a couple of times where they ran out of 1 of them, and had to ask. While one instance was positive as the employee got some for us from the back, the other instance was disappointing as they said that they're completely out. They serve the food to our table, bringing the round metal trays with disposable sheets. We were disappointed with the overall quality of beef tacos - beef lacked spice. Tortilla was thick as the beef tacos we ordered from a taco truck but despite the similar cost, Sabor's version lacks the "sabor" we crave for. The higher-end Shrimp taco was better and probably pairs well with a Mexican beer. Their nachos are well-seasoned and fresh, one of the best we've tried, even better than Chipotle's or Taco Bell's. Restaurant quality and goes well with queso and salsa. They also have more special nachos with more toppings. We ordered them before and they're large enough to share with a small group and perfect for mini get-togethers with beer. Tried their queso a few times before - it was alright. Barbacoa (shredded beef) empanada was crispy and delicious, larger than Makus' tiny empanadas. It comes with a special mayo sauce which we didn't really enjoy. The empanada is one of their better items. The food here is more Latin Southern American than Mexican. Other than their tacos, they have a great variety of street style Latin foods like plantains, Salvador fries, taco bowls, burritos, and quesadillas. I would not recommend the burritos - tried once and never tried again, but quesadillas are not bad. My girl enjoyed the plantains which come with cheese and sour cream. Our first few experiences here were more pleasant than our more recent ones. It's in an accessible location, close to South Point mall, in a prime corner of 1 of the 2 shopping centers facing each other, right across a City BBQ and near Shiki Sushi & Milklab. Sabor's ambiance and space somewhat feel like Waffle House's - clear windows and simple layout, fine for a fast food taco place like this. Overall, we have mixed feelings about Sabor. It's definitely better than Taco bell; its menu is more interesting and more diverse than Moe's but their basic beef tacos should be at least as good or better than what you can get from a taco truck. If you enjoy nachos, quesadillas, plantains, and El Salvadorian fries, this place won't disappoint. Sabor's Chimi Shrimp taco is probably the best taco here; the others are questionable. Tried the fish taco once and as a fish taco lover, I was disappointed. Nonetheless, with its salsa bar and friendly staff, Sabor's street style experience is worth trying with a bottle of beer. It's not our #1 choice if we're craving for Mexican but it's not a lackluster place for casual dining, and looks mostly fairly-priced for the amount. Overall score: 3.5/5 based on our most recent visits. read more

Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Small location not many tables but not super busy when we visited for a late lunch. Also maybe they have a lot of to go orders?
