The food here is amazing. It's a great family owned restaurant with the most consistency. I've had in Mexican food in a long time.... The Carne Asada is something to die for with its thin cut. I've had nothing like it anywhere else. The owners are awesome, but chilaquiles are amazing Customer for life.

Been to Old Town Placentia numerous times for Golden State Coffee Roasters (GSCR) and for El Farolito (down the street on S. Bradford Ave), but never had the chance to try El Sabroso Grill until I was in the neighborhood recently for a few cups of Joes from GSCR.There was a chalkboard out in front with the specials, but did not know the specials were only for dine-in, which was fine. I ordered a Pozole to-go and watched the news on the TV while my order was being prepared. There were a few occupied tables and everything looked and smelled delicious!PozolePork stew with hominyIt was a pretty good amount of food and 2 fresh tortillas were included as well. Everything was packaged well and all made it safely home, without a spill in the bag. Loved the interior and the ambiance of the restaurant. There are many tables for its customers. Very roomy and feels homey. Prices, portions, and quality of food are all very reasonable. Great service and love the ol' town feel of Old Town Placentia.

Stop by and was craving tacos . This place hit the spot. I knew it was going to be great from the moment I had the chip and salsa. Salsa was fresh with the right amount of spice and it's refreshing to the palate. Tacos was great but the chile rellenos took me home . So comfy and good .

I wanted to eat caldo de pollo so popped in with one of my kids on a weekday afternoon for lunch. The waitress, I think she said her name was Fatima, was so attentive and friendly. When she asked me if I wanted corn or flour tortillas, I didn't expect that my tortillas were going to be homemade! DELICIOUS! The broth was obviously homemade and it was sooo good! Some places leave their veggies so big that you need a knife to eat your soup and I get that's a normal thing. The veggies and chicken here were big, but not too big, and the chicken was so tender and flavorful! Of course, they brought out the onions, cilantro, rice, and limes with my bowl. The chips were okay, but the salsa was incredible. We also ordered taquitos and they were homemade and had a good amount of meat. I took a picture of their weekly specials because I was excited to see that there is a soup special every day. I'll be definitely returning on Wednesdays because the caldo de pollo was so good. Also, this is such a noticeably clean restaurant! There isn't a speck of dust anywhere; not even on the ceiling fans and artwork! You won't be sorry you visited!

This place is AMAZING. I came here with a group of 4 people and we were treated so kindly by the waitress Fatima, not to mention the food is outstanding!! Taco Tuesday is 1.75 per taco, such a good deal. The micheladas are the best!!!! Thanks for everything.

In the neighborhood and really wanted Mexican food on my way home from the nearby cigar lounge. Passed this restaurant many times, so decided to give it a try. Very clean interior with lots of tables, classic mexican restaurant decor. It was a Sunday morning so there were many football games on the TVs spread throughout the restaurant. The restaurant was full, and based on the energy seemed to be a very good local joint. Service was very quick, and as other reviewers noted, first thing to notice is how good the chips and salsa were. The menu had all your classic menu items, and i decided to go with a crispy taco, enchilad, chile relleno combo. All were prepared to perfection, temperature was spot on, flavors were what what was expected, and portion size wiull make sure you are full when you leave.Service was attentive, and they made sure my water, chips & salas were always tended to.Overall another solid Mexican restaurant and worth a visit if you are in the area.

Great lunch spot!!! Service is the best here :). Fautima was our server and she really took great care of us. I had the grilled shrimp plate that was excellent and the handmade tortillas was amazing. Will definitely be coming back here

Service is great and welcoming. Unfortunately, that can only go so far. I have tried the many Mexican Food places in Fullerton including their neighbor El Farlito. It's walking distance and preferred over this place. The salsa, which should add to the dish, only adds a weird taste. It tastes as if it had been left open in a refrigerator and taken on the many other smells that are in that refrigerator. Which it was! It was in a big container without a lid. 0/10The beans, tasted rotten. Not like typical beans or how they should taste. 0/10Crispy chicken taco, 7.5/10. Not bad, tasty but the lettuce was turning brown so did not taste well all together. I ended up taking the lettuce out and just ate the chicken and shell again without salsa... Rice is cooked well. Could have a little more flavor 6/10

Food is decent, but the attitude from both waitresses is horrible They don't mention that they charge extra for other small things like butter or refills When you're done eating you sit there waiting for the check and they don't bring it so When u get to the register they don't even wanna show you the receipt, they just tell you the total, I know some other people who come here and they said they never get charged for butter or extra refills My last ever time I come here
