This place is not worth what they charge, the place is small and the food used to be delicious, now it's just average. But it's too pricey for these plate with mostly white rice. Service is alright but slow when there's people. Not very polite but ok. And ambience not so good because the place is like I said, very small read more

Food was delicious, service was amazing. I attended this restaurant with a large group of friends and I had the Lomo Saltado. There were no food left on any of of my friends plate because it was so good. 10/10. read more

Need to work on paying attention to what is being ordered not just bring what the waiter wants to

The food was actually very delicious, and the presentation was so pretty. I don't think I've ever been served a rice pyramid lol. The meat was very flavorful and my plantains were perfect! I prefer my plantains on the sweeter side and these did not disappoint! I had never had Peruvian beans and while different they were quite delicious! I do recommend them but just keep in mind this place is a little on the pricey side for a small restaurant. Worth it, but pricey. I didn't mind paying I just wasn't expecting the $100 price tag. (Expensive is not a bad thing, but i think you should get a heads up!) Oh I also tried the Inca cola lol and it reminded me of a thumbs up but with a slight after taste worth trying something new! read more

This restaurant was alright, the food was good but the prices are absurd! 23 dollars for a Lomo Saltado? And keep in mind, it was a pretty small portion. I think that if you want an affordable, and good restaurant, this is not it. Let me emphasize this again, prices are ridiculous and the food is in small portions. The food overall is good, but not worth the 23 dollars, especially if you're trying to have your stomach full after the meal. The place is good, it has a nice vibe to it and the service as well is good. Our server had just started working but he did a pretty good job. Overall just keep in mind, the food, service, and place is good but the price, and portions are unacceptable. read more

I want to start by saying the food was absolutely delicious. However, the prices were OUTRAGEOUS. Don't be deceived by the modest, hole-in-the-wall location--we spent $75, including tip, for just two plates, oh, and there are no refills on their drinks. We ordered the Lomo Saltado, which tasted great, but it only had about seven pieces of steak and cost $27. Initially, we thought these prices were standard for Peruvian cuisine, but after checking out other Peruvian restaurants nearby, we found much lower prices. For example, Peru Cafe Express is highly rated, and their Lomo Saltado is only $17.50 with much more generous portions. I've been to Peru Cafe and def recommend that place over this one. We also got a shrimp soup that was tasty but also priced at $27. While the food was good, the prices and location were insane. If there prices were reasonable at the least I would have given 4 stars. read more

Came here for early brunch. Ordered ahead since we know food takes a while to come out. We were the only customers when we arrived. 1st dish came out within 15 mins. I was expecting the rest to come out soon after since we ordered 5 of the same dishes. However after another 10 mins went by with only 1 plate out I was confused. 3 more tables came in. Later on she came out with the rest of the plates however it wasn't what we ordered. It was a big mess. So again waiting for our food we watched the other tables got their food and they ordered the same dish as us. I thought our order would be rushed since there was a mix up. So by now all the other tables got their food and we're still waiting for ours although we ordered in advance and the first table. We waited another 15 mins..it was only the owner working the floor. Our food finally start trickling in. The food itself is not bad, however the service is very poor. I'm sorry to say this because she's an older lady but she's slow and clearly not capable of running the floor by herself. As soon as we finished our food we noticed a female waitress clocked in. A little late when the restaurant is busy on a weekend. The owner came by and asked how was everything (everyone was already done eating) and she want to the cashier counter. I assumed she was grabbing the bill. I was wrong, I have no idea what's going on in her mind but we waited about 15 mins. It came to the point that we had to fetch her and grab the bill. Tldr; service is very slow. Although the food was ok, I will not be returning. read more

Food was delicious, hot, and fresh. The staff were very friendly and the place was very clean. I did not think it was overpriced - the portions were more than generous. Overall, a great experience. Charming place - my only disappointment is that I did not try it months ago. read more

Great service and loved the criollo music and ambiance! Portions were generous and big plates however the food was not so great. This was our second time here and we were disappointed both times. Huancaina sauce was old and no flavor. Chautauqua was greasy and wet from all the grease. Tamal was old. Literally a pound of masa that was dry and even the egg was going bad. Maybe had a small piece of chicken the size of my thumb's fingernails and everything else was masa. We will not be back which makes me sad because the other Peruvian restaurant is 20 more minutes away but it is way better taste wise. read more

Why are the reviews from 7 years ago? I already have the answer, it is because at present the food they prepare has no taste, a year ago we came to eat and the food was very expensive but they served you a lot and it was delicious, now it is not like that and we do not plan to return, very expensive for so Small portion and on top of that tasteless, the only good thing about going to this restaurant is the friendly service. read more

Tried this for the first time last week because the hubby asked for a Torta. There are currently no good torta places around us.....until now. This place is legit. The food is delicious! Service is great! I highly recommend. Came back this Friday for dinner. The owner mentioned that he was a butcher and cares about the quality of meat he serves. You can definitely tell. Will definitely be a regular read more

Second time coming this week, I'm visiting from NY and I've try Peruvian food before, but this one is my top top!! I had the fish croquets and chicken chaufa and the flavor goes beyond amazing. They serve lunch with a small soup. A delicious soup. Definitely coming back read more

I would give this place 5 because the food is so good But they are way to strick with food alternations . I can't eat rice due to alergies and they sub anything so you end up paying $20 bucks For just fish instead of a fish and side They also don't tell you that you have to pay for water (bottle that's a crappy brand ) when you ask for water read more

So usually I review the foods in Spring Branch since I was born and raised here. This Peruvian Restaurant is absolutely delicious and stellar beans came with the seco de carne. It's cozy, they had a large fan blowing inside but it kept you cool/comfortable in this Houston weather. It's simple and prices vary from 6-18 dollars but the taste of it is one of a kind. Service was quick and friendly. Just raise your hand and they come to attend you. I would gladly come back here anytime. read more

After a recent trip to Miami, I've become a fan of Peruvian food. Service is friendly. The prices were average. I got the classic lomo saltado, which tasted like Vietnamese shaken beef. The dessert tasted like a coffee flavored mousse with a nutty taste and drizzle of chocolate on top. Overall, I thought the food was good and look forward to visiting again. read more

This was our first time trying this place and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent, we had Papa a la Huancaina, liked the presentation and taste, the Lomo Saltado was amazing, the meat was tender and fresh, and the Jalea came with a very tasty sarsa of onions, tomatoes and canchita, yumm!! We've gone to several Peruvian restaurants around the Houston area and I am from Lima, this is one of the few places that offers food with a very similar taste to what Peruvian food should taste like, so we're definitely going back!!! While we were there, we also noticed that every table was complementing the staff for the amazing food! Looking forward to trying the estofado, which I haven't had in a long time!!! Congrats and keep up the good work! read more

Came in while in town for a quick business trip. I wanted something fresh, flavorful, and healthy. There were so many good options on the menu but with the waitress' help, I settled on two appetizers: the mussels with pico de gallo and carpaccio style fish with two different pepper sauces. Wow! I hit the jackpot! I look forward to returning to Houston and trying some of the other dishes soon! read more

It's the most delicious ceviche and Peruvian food ever! Their music is awesome excelente service and the food is very quickly ready

Absolutely outstanding!!!! First time visiting Sabor y Sazón, we came for lunch. We were greeted by a lovely waitress and got seated right away. Good size menu, good selection, and good prices. My husband asked for a traditional Peruvian dish called tallarines verdes, that wasn't on the menu. They obliged, with no problem! I ordered a ceviche for me and some rice and beans for my toddler. The food came out in good time and was FANTASTIC!! We all enjoyed it, including our daughter, who especially loved the beans and the sweet potato that came as a side on my ceviche. Everything tasted amazing, very authentic and super reasonably priced. There are very few good Peruvian restaurants here in Houston, so this restaurant is much welcomed. We will definitely be retuning to this place, for sure. read more

Yelp is my companion on business trips, so while in Houston I checked for restaurants near the hotel. I love Peruvian food and was happy to see a place was about 5 minutes away. Sabor is small located in a tiny strip mall, but don't be fooled, the food is superb. I had the shrimp ceviche and lomo saltado, both were excellent. The ceviche was some of the best I've ever have had. So good. I definitely recommend it. Everything far exceeded my expectations. So much so, I got and extra order of pollo to go for later in the evening. If you are in the area, don't pass this place up. Drop in and prepare for some seriously good food. read more

The food is amazing and very authentic! The service is excellent as well. The jalea tastes like you're in Lima with homemade tartara and salsa criolla. The papa rellena was delicious and the ceviche well prepared and delicious. Good music and environment read more

My boyfriend and I went to eat here again for the second time because they have delicious platters but today we were disappointed in the customer service unfortunately and we won't be going there for at least a good while because we definitely left feeling that the service was unfair, closed minded. There is a platter called Jalea and if you read the description as of 9/18, it says that it is a seafood platter with Peruvian sauce poured over (which it's not... it's on the side served like a fast food dish) and then it fails to very clear about what exactly is fried. The description only states that the yucca is fried. It doesn't say the whole platter is entirely fried. When we were served the dish, we read over the description again to see if we had failed to read it carefully but we didn't. No where did it say everything on it is fried and that the sauce is actually just on the side like tartar sauce not at all presented the way it was described. So the manager who I guess, was also our waiter ? Not sure there, but anyway... says I'm sorry and responds with "well most people know Jalea is all fried" ... okay so we're not Peruvian nor familiar with Jalea. We've never heard of it we just went off the description so how is that our fault? It was a response that really just rubbed us the wrong way. It was a little bit rude and he then says I'm sorry and offers a discount and takes our plate back? We get the bill and literally ate one stick of yucca and two pieces of fried shrimp and get only a 10% discount and we were not even asked if we wanted to keep the basically full plate of food that we're paying for ? It just was a very unpleasant experience. We were really bummed because the food is so tasty but the customer service today was just really disappointing. Left a very bad taste in our mouth. I hope they realize they definitely could've handled that better and don't do that to someone else. read more

The ceviche was absolutely disgusting. It tasted like they marinated in plain sea water with an extra bucket of salt. There was no lime flavor. It was seriously disappointing. And the chef said that's the way they make it. Don't get ceviche here, this is not how its supposed to taste. There are much better restaurants that serve much better ceviche. Also the serving for it was so small for 22$. It came in the same size box as a burger from mcdonalds but it was 75% onions. NOT WORTH IT read more
