El Sabor Casero

Don’t know who cooks there but 2 times I’ve ate there sucked. Food had no taste at all. Ordered beans with rice. There was no beans in the sauce. Really. they had no chicken but they said it will be a while for the food to come out.. they went to the market down the block bought and cooked it while I was waiting for it … will never eat there again.. eat at your own risk.

Service is horrible. Waiter doesn’t know what he is doing. Took him 15 min to bring salt. Then tells me he ran out of mojito. Really it takes 5 min to do more. Will not return. Food was so so.

Overpriced and salty as hell! Don’t waste your time and money here — you will wait forever for the food and you won’t even enjoy it!

This place is new & i keep giving more & more chances. First time i came here i got a lunch special of white rice & roasted chicken & the rice needed A LOT of salt. I ate it at home & was really upset because i didnt enjoy it at all. Then i make a order on the phone & i went to pick it up & they informed me the order was mest up. Had to wait an extra 20 minutes for my order. Very unhappy with this place. Im going to stick to sabrosura & brisas del caribe.

I was there two weeks ago on a Friday. The entrees were fine but not worth the price. The rice was pretty bland. The service is a 2 out of 5 at best. The music was so darn loud in the dining area I couldn’t have a conversation. The speakers were buzzing from the volume. You can’t have a restaurant with music that loud when you are charging upscale prices. My advice don’t go on a weekend evening. This was my second time at this location and quite possibly my last.

Had dinner here on Saturday ³⁄₂₈. The décor was nice and our waiter was excellent. Unfortunately those were the highlights of the evening. I had the arroz con pollo. The chicken itself was good but the rice was extremely bland. To top it off they have not received their liquor license yet so no alcohol which made me sad lol. It looks like a pretty new establishment so I’m going to stick to La Cocina Boricua for now which is about a block away and give this place another try some time this summer.

The first time I came here I instantly fell in love with the design and it’s presentation. I decided to come back and try something new. My boyfriend has the churassco which was okay (a little ubderseasoned for our liking). I in the other hand had the seafood paella which I loved! It was so gooooood! Unfortunately it was way too much for myself, but I enjoyed every bite of it.
For drinks we had two lemonades one of which was a strawberry lemonade, which was amazing! We moved on to dessert and ended up having a chocolate lava cake, which had the potential of greatness had it been a little warmer. But overall our experience along with our food was great. I can’t wait to see this restaurant’s potential greatness unravel!!!

I was disappointed with delivery and food! Pernil was extremely salty. I was so disgusted that I had to throw food away.

Very nice looking restaurant but the food can definitely be better service is okay but I definitely wouldn’t go again not impressed

I was here about a week ago and I have to say that I was impressed right away. El Sabor Casero has an Old World character to it that defines it so well. The overall atmosphere is modern yet quaint. The staff is so professional and very polite. Knowledgeable about the menu, they were very helpful in helping us decide what we should order. The food was served in a manner consistent with the more higher end restaurants found in Manhattan. It was tasty, exquisite on the palate and abundantly served. I think this little hidden gem is going to be a major player in the Northeast Bronx food service industry. Check it out please.
