A Local Gem: Nuestro Sabor Review I cannot say enough good…read morethings about the transformation of this location. Seeing Nuestro Sabor move into the old Chinese restaurant building was a welcome change for the neighborhood. They have truly revitalized the space at 203 Smith St, turning it into a vibrant spot that feels fresh and welcoming from the moment you walk through the door. Starting things off with the chips and salsa is an absolute must. While it is important to note that they cost $5.00 after the first serving, the quality makes it well worth the price. The chips are perfectly crisp, and the salsa has that authentic, homemade flavor that sets the tone for the rest of the meal. If you like a bit of a kick, you have to try their hot sauce. It is genuinely delicious and packed with a complex heat that enhances everything it touches. It isn't just about the spice; the flavor profile is deep and adds a perfect layer of zing to the entire dining experience. For my main course, I went with the chimichanga, and it did not disappoint. The exterior was fried to a perfect golden-brown crunch, while the inside remained incredibly flavorful and juicy. It's clear they take pride in the preparation of their signature dishes, as every bite was as good as the first. Of course, no Mexican meal is complete without the classics. The tacos were fresh and seasoned to perfection, capturing that traditional taste I always look for. Paired with their side of rice and beans, it was a hearty and deeply satisfying combination that felt like a true home-cooked meal. Mandi decided to try the loaded fries, and they were a total showstopper. They were piled high with toppings, creating a decadent and savory mix of textures. It's the kind of comfort food that you find yourself thinking about long after the meal is over. The service was another highlight of our visit. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed without being overbearing. It's clear they care about their customers and want to ensure everyone has an amazing 5-star experience. The atmosphere is just right for a casual lunch or a fun dinner out. Even though the building has a history as a different style of restaurant, the team at Nuestro Sabor has made it entirely their own. It feels bright, clean, and full of energy. Overall, the food here is simply delicious. From the perfectly seasoned meats to the fresh sides, every element of our order felt high-quality and carefully prepared. It is wonderful to have such a reliable and tasty option for Mexican cuisine in the area. I highly recommend stopping by and giving them a try if you haven't already. Whether you're coming for a full spread of tacos and chimis or just want to dive into those loaded fries, you're in for a treat. This is definitely our new go-to spot!

If you can't handle takeout and in-house dining, don't do both. Aside from stale chips and salsa that was reminiscent of V8 if you strained it, no clue what the food is like. We left two dollars on the table for the chips and left to get food in Eugene. The sweetheart server asked if we were okay as we were leaving as though our departure was a shock. We won't bother coming back and certainly won't encourage others to.

The food is always fresh, flavorful, and some of the best Mexican food around. We've tried a variety of dishes and honestly haven't had a single miss. What really sets this place apart is the service. Adrian is hands down one of the best servers we've had anywhere. He's attentive, personable, and makes the entire experience feel effortless. You can tell he genuinely cares, and it shows. The entire staff is welcoming, friendly, and on top of everything. It's one of those places you don't just go to, you look forward to coming back. Highly recommend. We'll absolutely keep making the drive.
