El Sabroso

I stopped in El Sobroso on my way to Carizzo Plain to see the wildflower bloom. Buttonwillow is the closest town, and there is no food or services for 70 miles until you hit the coast. So, I loaded up on a thiiiic breakfast burrito with egg and chorizo. It was very good. Homemade chorizo, plus cilantro, beans, and salsa. I hiked around and I am still stuffed in the late afternoon.Anyways, if you are in Buttonwillow and looking for some good Mexican food, this place is the spot!

Since I already had in-n-out that morning I wanted something that wasn't a chain restaurant on the 5 freeway. I honestly didn't have high expectations ordering from here but I was genuinely happy with my bean and cheese burrito. Had such a great hole in the wall taste. I'd def get the wet bean and cheese burrito next time. Service was nice and mellow.

Came here looking for some Mexican food while passing through. We are leaving with happy, full bellies. Came on Wednesday so it was buy two tacos get two free. The beans were awesome and the chips cooked fresh. Great salsa and all meats were well seasoned and flavorful. Definitely a good sit down place to grab a meal. There are no prices, just a heads up, but the prices were reasonable. Average of $15 for a large plate of food.

With road trips and an electric vehicle, we're always looking for a food stop close to a charger.This review is for the take-out food experience.We ordered ceviche, carnitas tacos, chicken quesadilla, and Chile Relleno to go. No problems ordering and we got our food in about 15 minutes. Then we drove to the EV charging area about 5 miles away and started eating our food on top of the car. Not an ideal situation since it is HOT late spring in this area.Had a problem before we started eating - the bag was filled with red liquid when we took out the food. Ceviche was pretty liquidy and spilled all over the place. It should be placed in a soup cup with lid for to go orders.The food:Recommended without reservation:Chile Relleno - if you like cheese, this is your dish. Cheese to the max and very flavorful. Comes with rice and beans.Recommended:Ceviche - aside from the liquid disaster, the dish was pretty tasty. Very shrimp forward, but fresh tasting. Comes with some tostadas for texture.Could have been better:Chicken quesadilla - lots of chicken and cheese. My kids ate it without complaints. I found the meat to be a bit dry and the whole dish was not very flavorful. I would recommend eating this with a healthy portion of salsa.Carnitas tacos - similar to the chicken, the meat was pretty dry. Flavors were ok, but I left the entree a bit disappointed.

Oh my goodness they were busy and I know it's because their food is so good !! We wanted to bring our grandkids here to try it and they loved it especially the refillable soda machine . My husband had the chorizo and eggs , I had the relleno omg so good and my grandson had enchiladas. Everyone was so full and happy and can't wait to come back !

Good on a Sunday was there Menudo! Simple yet fulfilling. Eat the super hot tortillas before they become hard. I felt the ingredients ie the pork could have cooked all day.You walk up order from the front desk. Clean yet simple

It is what it is.These folks know that people who are on I5 looking for a sit down spot will likely visit, hence the interaction this weekend when I saw the menu on the wall was price-less and asked for a menu.(Hands over menu from stack of 100s)"Here you go. But the prices have changed.""Oh, to what?""Depends on what plate you want.""Oh okay... so the prices are all different?""Yes."(Pause)"Okay, what about the shrimp fajitas?"(Says 13.99 on menu)"That's... 17... 27." Weird number choice haha.I wasn't mad about it but it's definitely shady.Food: mediocre, does the job. Next time, will be stopping by the Taste of India nearby.

We were looking for a place to eat on our drive south, and we came across this place on Yelp with great ratings.I neglected to look how far off the freeway it was; so just a heads up, that it's 4 miles from the freeway exit. Thankfully it was worth the short detour! The specialty here is seafood and I'd read on Yelp that the shrimp tacos were amazing so that's what I ordered. We got a quesadilla for our toddler and my husband got carne asada tacos. We also got an order of fries just in case for our toddler. I loved my shrimp tacos! These were very delicious and filling. My husband really liked his carne asada tacos and thought the meat portion was generous. It had huge pieces in it. The quesadilla, as well, was stuffed with cheese! The quesadilla came with tomatoes, lettuce and sour cream on the side. The tacos were $2 each and the shrimp ones were $3.We came on the early side of dinner so it wasn't busy. The service was friendly and prompt and we had our food in no time. My shrimp came out piping hot. Overall, if we found ourselves needing a bite to eat in Buttonwillow again, we wouldn't hesitate to come here!

Food was good, we had camarones al mojo de ajo, enchiladas verdes, huevos rancheros & a veggie burrito. The only thing is my beans had cheese when I said something our waitress was hot & bothered (she did not get me some without cheese) other than that it was yummy.

What a diamond find!! Traveling South and came across this on Yelp. Fantastic!! Best beans ever. The tostadas were great. Everything was super fresh. Great, friendly staff! We'll definitely be back!!
