10 reviews for Sabor a Mexico
I grew up in Southern California, where they have excellent Mexican food. Since moving to Washington, Hubby and I hadn't found any Mexican places worth going to. That is until we tried Sabor a Mexico.
Our chips and salsa were constantly refilled, the prices were fairly low and the portions large. Oh! The best part? This place is owned by Mexican people!
This is the best Mexican food place I have tried since moving to Washington. Waaaaaay better than Azteca, bleh.
Great atmosphere! The staff was very friendly and the food was out fast. The food was very good and the portions were large. Prices were very reasonable. We'll be eating here a lot.
I have just been once but the food was pretty good. It was not write home to mama or craving good, but I would go there again kind of good. The service was meh. I was thirsty for a lot of my meal. Would I go there again? Sure, why not, but it isn't the top of my list.
I have to disagree with the other reviews here....while the service is always fast and cheerful, I don't think I would rate the food as that great, just OK. If I come down this direction, I usually will decide to go all the way down to 2nd street (almost to the ferry terminal) to eat at La Cascada Acapulco, where the chips, salsa, and mole are much better, and worth the extra drive.
One of the better Washington Mexican food joints, the dishes are typical mexican entree's, not traditional mind you, but typical for American Mexican food.
The service is always friendly and my chips and salsa never run low. They do have good coupons too if you are hip on receiving coupons in the mail.
The prices are typical and will not give you the impression that you are overpaying.
I give them a solid 4 stars and am a repeat customer and will continue to patronize them with dolares . :_)
Years ago in Mukilteo (in the 90's), there was a wonderful Mexican restaurant, right off the Mukilteo Speedway. Just about every payday, I'd go down there and enjoy Camerone's Mojo de Ajo... This was a big treat for me, as I was working my first job, and I love shrimp!
The amazing staff was always waiting with big smiles, asking if I wanted the usual!
I graduated from soda to Margaritas at that restaurant, Always great memories.... I moved away from the area in '97 and eventually one day I came back to visit an they were gone.
There was another restaurant in it's place, then another, and then a Chinese restaurant that was supposed to open, but did never did.
Finally a new Mexican restaurant opens, Sabor a Mexico! To my surprise, many of the old faces that I came of age seeing, were there, including my favorite waiter! (He even asked if I'd be having my usual! after 8 or 9 years!!!) They had re-opened!
This is a resturaunt with fabulous food, fabulous atmosphere, a fabulous staff, (that will put up with your terrible broken spanish) and great cocktails! This place is obviously invested in the community, and make our culinary scene a better.
I come here for lunch on occasion, and the food has typically been pretty good (I'm sure this is Americanized/Seattlized Mexican but I am an Asian from Guam..so what do I know?). Anyway it's good lunch gut bomb food. Decent prices. Service is usually pretty friendly and as long as my salsa, chips, and water don't go empty..i'm happy. My most recent take out was kind of weird though cus as I asked for extra Tortillas (like I normally do when I dine-in) this time they actually charged me extra for it...maybe they always did me a favor before but that kind of sucked. Lastly they asked me for corn or flour tortillas...I said corn, and I came back to work with flour. Anyway 3 stars, it's not a horrible place, it's not wonderful either, but a decent mexican joint for lunch.

This is a surprisingly good mexican restaurant...especially for being in a stripmall.
They start you out with very good chips and salsa. My wife had the combo plate with chile rellenos, chile colorado, and chile verde. All were good. The chile colorado was the standout.
I had one of the mexican-style steak dishes...ok but not terrific.
Overall, I think this is one of the best mexican places I've eaten at since moving to Washington. I recommend.
I think I'm in love. Hands down, this is my new favorite mexican place even though I have to drive 20mins to get there. The food is delicious, the service is amazing, and my enchiladas come with crispy melted cheese. The servers are also super cute and ridiculously friendly. Get there. Now!
My husband calls this "the happy Mexican restaurant." ("Alegre!" I try to teach him.) Everyone on the service staff seems genuinely happy to see you. The mood is infectious! (Of course, the margaritas help, too.) The level of service is unparalleled from the moment you enter the door. Depending on how busy they are, the host/hostess may invite you to choose your table. As soon as you're seated, a team of wait staff swoops in to deliver your water, a basket of chips, and bowls of salsa, pico de gallo and bean dip. There are no booths here, only tables, so the staff has a clear view of everyone and what they're running low on. Water glasses are refilled before you have the chance to ask, and they'll inquire about your desire for more chips and salsa as well. The food is muy delicioso. This is our absolute favorite place to dine.
