Sazzon Baja Mex Culinary

Fantastic service, the old lady working there is so sweet and soft spoken. Their fish tacos were phenomenal and I had a hibiscus agua Fresca. Tried the shrimp taco too, it was good. Their rice was special. Felt at home.

Walked in and were seated right away. A couple across from us had what looked like tostada cups but they said it was the nachos. They looked really good and on the appetizer menu so I got them. Asked for the salsa flight but waiter said the prep guy did not come in that day so they had no salsa (none at all)! So o ordered the guacamole (which he competed). Also got a Jamaica juice that was so large I had to get a to go cup when we were ready to leave.The guacamole was house made but it did lack some flavor. It needed a punch of garlic and some salt. Only thing I could add was the salt from the table. Otherwise it was good and chunky. The nachos came out and they were massive. I was able to eat about 10 chips before giving up. My provider and I said we should have shared. They are loaded with meat, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, pico, and pickled red onions. I have no complaints bout the taste as it was all very flavorful and seasoned well. There are not a lot of options for food in town but I would eat here again.

The service was very good and our server was very friendly. You can tell that this restaurant is more contemporary because as someone else mentioned the inside is modern and sparse with only one picture for decoration. The music is at a good volume level.You do not get chips and salsa when you first walk in. In fact, if you want chips and salsa, you have to pay $3 for them. The tortilla chips seem homemade, but they are not salted. The salsa is very different than what you get at a typical Mexican restaurant. It's almost more of a vinegar base. It's got a little spice to it, but we really enjoyed it! My husband got the Sazzon Bowl. It was not at all what we expected. It was more of a salad with rice and meat in it. I got the shredded chicken tostadas. Our personal opinion is that the food did not have much flavor. In fact, the vegetables on the tostadas tasted watery like they've been soaking in water to keep them fresh, but the problem with that is that then they just taste watery and make the tortilla kind of soggy underneath. I mean, the food was not bad, but it just didnt have any flavor. We paid $40 for the meals and an iced tea..... I'm glad we tried this place but I do not think that we would come back.

Authentic Mexican cuisine in a small Texas town. We had the grilled fish tacos, frijoles and chips and salsa. Everything was very flavorful. The servers are so nice!

There are not a lot of options in Alpine and Sazzon is a solid choice if you are in the area and craving Mexican food. The menu is small but has all the basics and everything was fresh and tasty, from the enchiladas to the tacos and the chile rellano. The service is efficient and you pay at the counter so you don't have to wait around for your check. The restaurant is small and clean with about 9 tables. Dinner for 3 with chips and salsa (they are not free here) was $61.00.

Not gunna lie..this place is weird lol...Jamaican reggae music playing, kinda sterile on the decor...but good food. I had the Sopes and husband had the enchiladas with mole. I will warn you the chips and salsa are not typical, salsa is sweet. We would come back though for sure.

In my opinion, this place is too expensive for what you get. My husband and I spent $40 for takeout for shrimp tacos and a chicken tinga huaraches. The portion size was small, but the food was good. the huaraches especially was very fresh. Personally, the restaurant and food options made it seem like food should be worth $10-$12 per dish, not $18-$20.

Fantastic. Wonderful authentic food prepared with both care and efficiency. Friendly staff and clean environment.We came in on Sunday. I had the chilaquiles which aren't offered the rest of the week. They were sublime, if just a little too salty. My kids had a Sazzon bowl and the sips. Both were happy with their meals.Alpine doesn't exactly have a wealth of food options, so check this place out!

The cafe is very simple but very nicely done, contemporary casual decor.The food blew me away with flavors. We had the salsa sampler...instead of typical texmex pickled jalapeños, the presented a roasted corn, avocado/tomatillo, and an anchor chili flight with home prepped chips.Husband's fish tacos were Melt in your mouth good. I had a huarache that was rich in flavor.Iced cold beer to top it all off.We were just passing through Alpine, TX but if I lived there, this would be a weekly spot for me.

The food was delicious. The waitress was quick, pleasant and eager to serve us well.I got the tostados that had a nice kick- chicken was my meat of choice. My husband got the carnitas tacos, which he said were slightly dry, but tasty.We definitely had to add salt, but I much prefer that to having over salted food which seems the norm.The guacamole was good - as was the salsa, but could had smaller onion chunks. ;-) The only down side was $3 for chips and salsa. That was a little shocking to us, but worth it- homemade chips, fresh, in house salsa.The atmosphere is clean and sparse... but clean! Easy to get to , and a million times better than the other options in Alpine that we've tried over the years and visits. Music was tasteful and not too loud, booth was clean and comfy!There were radishes on the guac and the Chicken tostados. I removed the radish to eat them. The dish actually was quite crispy... the juice left some puddles in the plate, but I propped them up on my knife to keep them out of the liquid, and they all three stayed crispy until the last delicious bite.
