Taqueria El Sabor

You like russian roulette? You like Mexican food? Oh do I have the place for you.Sometime excellent, sometimes middling, rarely just bad, you can have it all here. I think the tacos are the standouts but I've toured the pozole, tortas, and the burritos as well. The highlights are definitely the salsa bar and the bottomless horchata if you dine in. Grab some pickled carrots and radishes so you can lie to yourself about how healthy you are eating. There is a scarily large menu to choose from and I've not been brave enough to adventure into the seafood (yet). No matter what you pick I think you'll find good value--the prices are more than fair.

Stopped by here late around 10pm on a Saturday. The place is a bit small and a little outdated but service is good, tacos are tasty, and there's a salsa bar available! I got an asada and tripa taco. Asada is flavorful and tripa had best type of crunch. One downside is that there was a lot of oil on the tripa. I wish they drained the oil a bit more.

Yesterday I was on a job for most of the day. I was starving by the time I got done. I was in the general area of Shoreline and it has been sometime since I've been to El Sabot. I moved to Marysville approximately four years ago and had not been around this little area since then.El Sabor really hit the mark, with the five taco plate, I ordered. I ordered carnitas, shredded beef, and chicken. The little street tacos were so yummy. I really enjoyed them. They have a bar where you can get different salsas, hot sauces, and marinated vegetables.Pricing for the five tacos, including a soda was just under $20. I would've given them a five star rating, but it seemed a little pricey. I get though everything has gone up and it just was a little surprising because I hadn't been there in so long. Would I do it again absolutely it was worth the price.The staff are sweet and they're very quick to turn your food around. I'm glad I was able to check this place out again I really enjoyed the food.Well done !Sorry this time no pictures I didn't think to take those. I was too hungry.

Tasty food, reasonable price, casual dining and friendly staff at the registers, what more do you want if in the area looking for Mexican food. Kid-friendly - in terms of menu and atmosphere.

Tried this Mexican restaurant today, we all were v hungry so wanted to go to Mexican restaurant. We love Mexican food and this would be one of the worst tasting Mexican restaurants that I have tried around Seattle area. We ordered a mix of lunch burrito, shrimp plate with veggies, chicken quesadillas and a chicken combo plate. The chicken combo was the best among all these, though this was an average plate. The place didn't look clean, very small, no room to sit comfortably. To top it all up, this restaurant doesn't have a restroom, so we had to go to another restaurant (pho place nearby) to use the restroom. So, if you are going with your family to spend sometime, please don't go to this place. Also, considering all these things, the food is a priced comparable to all the other good Mexican places I have seen.

Love this place, been going there for last 3 years. Service is amazing. Food is really good and their salsas are amazing. Very clean and servers are very kind and helpful. Reasonable price and good portions of food. Always postive experience !

After a workout, I was CRAVING some tacos. Hit up El Sabor and it definitely got me filled up with all their goodness. LA is my hometown, and if there is anything I miss it is some real fuego tacos. The pozole hit the spot and they were extremely generous with the portions of fatty cartilage meat that went in there. They also included a small dish of extra chili flakes, oregano, and lime to give it that ZING otherwise you can just eat it as is. I like that Zing though. Wouldn't have it any other way. The tacos, I went for the Lengua (tongue) and Tripa (Tripe) extra crispy. The Tripa tacos were made crispy and were just MM MM good. The Lengua was tender and just what I was looking for. There is a full salsa bar with all the variations of salsa you need to accommodate your needs. Will be coming back again. Thank you for the clean restaurant and EXCELLENT service. Everyone is so friendly here. Makes the food taste level up and taste better!

Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - we ordered 8 cabeza tacos which were good. The tacos had a slight crisp and the protein was good. The pepper had a great kick! A bit inconsistent in filling as we had some that were stuffed and other tacos that were fairly empty Ambience: 3/5 - worn down furniture but homey feel since everyone is so friendly Service: 5/5 - definitely language barrier but they were friendly Value for price: 5/5 to 1/5 - the food was great in flavor and reasonable in price. Had some confusion since the taco prices were all over the place but it ended up being just over $2 per taco. Unfortunately, both of us got the runs within 2 hours of eating here :((((

Nice place to get freshly made Mexican food at a good place. They have an extensive menu of different types of food. Greeted warmly by the woman at the counter . You can see in the back to the kitchen, which looked clean and organized. Spanish sports channel playing pretty loud. The channel was later switched to music, which had the cooks in the back singing along, a cute experience to hear. Hard to choose what sounds best. Enchiladas looked wonderful. I love arroz de pollo. They have my favorite Camerones de Ajo. Carnitas and lengua are offered, as is cabeza, all things that I wanted to try. I ended up getting caldo de res, a big bowl of a beef vegetable soup. The soup had a mixture of cabbage, carrots, celery, corn, beef, potatoes and squash. It came with a side of onions mixed with cilantro and hot tortillas. You order at the counter and they bring your order out to you. They have a salsa bar, if you want any add ons to spice up your meal. I was checked in to see if I needed anything after getting my soup. The soup was great, tender beef and a beefy broth. You bus your own dishes and every customer was thanked when you left. While this has a fast food feel to the furniture, the whole experience was a positive one. Will come back and try those unfamiliar items, heard they are really good.

Really tasty food and fast. Just what we were looking for, for our lunch. So many options to choose from. I got the enchilada verde but with shrimp (there was a 5 up charge for this) and friend got the tacos (3), which was good she did because they were little. So tasty though. We will return to try other options.
