we got the patacon "gratis" and omg the portion was huge. like easily enough for two people. super delicious and loaded with so much cheese. the plantains were crispy and the fillings were seasoned perfectly. and the green sauce? actually addictive. i kept going back for more. there are a ton of picnic tables around so it's easy to sit, chill, and eat without rushing. next to the truck there's this little venezuelan/latin convenience store inside a metal shipping-crate kind of setup. it sounds sketchy when i describe it but it's actually really cute inside and super clean. the owners seem awesome and welcoming too. overall such a good spot. i'll definitely be back. read more

My partner and I went to Sabor Venezolano as we were in the mood for something new...oh my goodness, am I sure glad that we did. The food was delicious. I ordered an Arepa con Carne Mechado y Queso and my boyfriend ordered the Mega Parilla Picada Arepa. We also both ordered drinks being the blackberry (mora) juice and mango juice. Both plates had plenty of meat (that was juicy and tender,) the arepa was moist and the drinks were extremely refreshing. It was a bit hard to order, good thing for a printed menu! No complaints on that though, to be expected with good food. If we asked for anything, it came quickly to the table. The seating was all outside, with a lot of picnic tables and lights. There was also a market in the back of the property that was fun to look around. Will definitely be stopping by again in the future. read more

Have driven past this place many times so wanted to check out something new. All of the seating it outdoors and street parking is sparse (not the best idea) but they have some dedicated spots in the parking lot which is nice. The area has canopy covering for sunny days. We went to "brunch" and it was empty so seating was plentiful and service was quick. The coffee wasn't great but the food had good portions and tasted really good. We took the extras for a later meal. There were quite a lot of flies so that was a bit unpleasant but overall it was a quick tasty meal that I'd go back and try some more items from! read more

The food was so good, my partner had the carne asada arepa and it was delicious. I had the shredded beef empanda and it was great! The seating area is adorable with cute lights and lots of space. Great spot for a weekday date night especially if you like trying new things. The staff was incredibly friendly as well and was quick with our orders. Would definetly come again! read more

Wow talk about the biggest burger you've ever had! This thing was HUGE and delicious. We came here for lunch on a Monday and sat outside on some benches they had near the food truck and there was even a waitress who served you even though it was a food truck. Our waitress was so kind and even though she primary spoke Spanish we were able to communicate just fine. She was very attentive and took good care of us. The atmosphere was nice and casual. We loved sitting outside in the sunshine. We got the burger super special with several types of meat (Angus beef, chicken, cheese, egg, bacon, ham, lettuce, tomato, shredded potato crisps) and french fries. Everything was really good and the value for the price is definitely worth it (this fed me 3 meals)! I would eat here again! read more

Other night we got off early from a Comedy show at Moody Center. I dashed southbound to enjoy Venezuelan Cazon (Dogfish, related to Sharks) Empanadas at Sabor Venezuelano before they closed. Their empanadas of Corn Masa are Deep Fried. When was the last time U enjoyed a Shark Family Member in your Empanadas? As I waited for my togo order I enjoyed the ambiance of Friendly Staff that welcome you like Family as Venezuelan Music Plays & you are surrounded by Venezuelans enjoying the Great Food in the Night Air. I quite enjoy hanging out in restaurants/food trailers in US that are like stepping into another country's Culture! Cuz that's how I Roll!

Paid $17 for a soup with one piece of potato, three small pieces of meat that were mostly fat, and one piece of corn. Had high hopes for this place but I will not be returning sadly after this experience. read more

Los precios me parecieron razonables para la calidad. Sin dudas, un lugar al que volveré y recomendaré. Està en South Austin read more

I had a doctor appointment nearby that was taking forever and decided to look at nearby places where I could grab something to go before I headed to a meeting afterwards. I ordered an arepa pabellon and tostones via menufy and got a phone call and text in Spanish to update me on my order. Unfortunately my Spanish is lacking, so I just went there to ask. Parking was a bit difficult. I ended up parking at the gas station. After a bit of issues due to a language barrier, I discovered that they were out of beef, so they substituted chicken in the arepa and it also took an extra 15 minutes. I ate the tostones in the car. They were very crispy, but lacked salt. I think I'm more used to Puerto Rican tostones, which are served with sea salt and a garlic mojo type sauce. Unfortunately, I didn't get to the arepa until later when it was not as fresh, but oh my goodness what an arepa it was. It was HUGE and freaking amazing! Every ingredient was perfectly seasoned and absolutely delicious. I can't even imagine how good it would have tasted if I had eaten it immediately. I will definitely return to try it (and others) again and highly recommend! read more

Place was amazing. Had the empanada was very delicious the dough was on the sweeter side and ground beef with it was a perfect balance. The Cachapa was truly amazing between flavor and texture used the recommendation of cheeses beef which was great. Can't wait to come Back. The ambiance was very nice as it had plenty of room do reseating and it was nice decorated. Serviced was great with good recommendation and food came arrived good time. read more

I've been coming here since they first opened and the quality of the food and the service just keeps getting better and better! I've tried most of the menu items and my personal favorite is the pabellón criollo. Tequenos, empanadas, mandocas, pastelitos, patacones, cachapas, hamburguesas, arepas are tied for the second place :p But seriously, it's a great place to eat or order for take out, and on Sundays they have live music and the ambiance is just right. 10/10 would recommend; cheers to the cooks! read more

I tried Sabor Venezolano for the first time on Wednesday and it is currently already Sunday and I still haven't gotten over the severe food poisoning that I got from their food. The woman who worked there was very kind and tried to get my order to me as fast as they could due to not having everything on the menu that I had ordered online and having to change the order. I really appreciated the good customer service but at the end of the day, I really wish I hadn't ordered there at all. I hope this can help them be more cautious on how they handle their food read more

The food is great no doubt in that tried the parillada it was good for the price it was great the steak was so flavorful , the chicken , pork & plantains were good ! the chef David is nice definitely recommend this place ! read more

Took twice as long as they said and hard to park, but the pork in my arepa was so succulent and well-seasoned and so generous it was a good meal for two people! read more

Not sure what is with the bad reviews but do not let those deter you from giving this place a chance. The food was so AMAZING. I was walking my dog and ran into this place and thought I would give it a try with zero expectations. Honestly the food took a lot longer than expected but man it was SO worth it. I honestly do not remember the exact food items I ordered but it was some type of chicken burger, beef arepas and soup. Every single item was DELICIOUS. So happy I live nearby-- will def return often and update with photos on my next visit. read more

He sido cliente desde que sabor venezolano llegó a la ciudad de Austin y el día de hoy domingo fui a la localidad a desayunar con mi familia y me han dicho que no tienen empanadas ni pastelitos porque vienen de Miami, siendo un domingo un día de quizás más visitantes al establecimiento siendo un fin de semana. read more

Great food! Empanadas are delish. Really cute little area too - turf and cafe lights and several picnic tables.

As a native Venezuelan I highly recommend this spot. Parking nearby at the gas station. Empanadas are authentic and mouth watering delicious. Bringing me back to my roots and home country. Thank you! So happy this place exist in Austin! read more

Great food, never had arepas but had them the for the first time. Tasted great! Plus the atmosphere and vibe there were great! Nice little outdoor area with shade and workers and owner there seemed super friendly. Definitely will be back. read more

Spend $50 here to eat the most disappointing food ever! We got the Picadita Sabor con Tequenos, the empanadas had more dough and hardly any meat at all and the inside of the empanadas were cold. The rest of the food was dry, hard and couldn't bite into it! The tostones were so hard and tasted like fish not banana. read more
