Taqueria Sabor Y Sazon

Best home cooked Mexican good. Whole in the wall but delicious. Service is a bit slow, but it’s all homemade. Be patient you’ll love it!

Came here because Milagros was too crowded. The place tries and looks artsy in a second hand store kinda of vibe.
the salsa was hot but nothing you would devour. The chips were hot.
You must ask for water and you must also ask for ice in the water. The waitress finally gave a nice decanter with cold water. Dont know why she is holding off.
The place gets crowded with loud teens from Juarez H.S. which is known for its 50% drop out rate. The kids will annoy because they seem to not be able to hear each other with boot leg beats headphones on.
The Tacos were average and small. pastor was reheated and the steak was OK.
And those piks with avocado bad new it is extra!
What was really tasty was the Liquados/​shakes. Very impressed and fresh fruit used great price.
parking was readily available because the area is kinda of a dead zone in Pilsen.
So if you are looking for a quick snack and close by Sabor will fill you up.

This place always hits the spot. Their specials never dissapoint. Today we had their Puerco Asada special. It was prepared like a red mole dish — muy muy delicioso.
Their hand made tortillas are always a treat and the salsa cremosa makes them even better. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Give them a try sometime– they love doing what they do and you will too.

Solid food here. Was very pleasantly surprised by the quality and freshness. Service was really friendly. We ordered a variety of tacos, huarches, and a breaded steak torta and loved everything. Small mom and pop operation and you know they have a lot of pride in their work. It feels like you’re in someone’s home.
Ding’d one star due to not having Mexican Coke and their lemonade (for the kids) was from instant powder. But, you go here for the food.

Best chicken and pastor burritos I have ever had. Best bang for you buck as well burritos run 5.80 and tacos run about 1.75. Delicious food probably my favorite spot in Pilsen. Highly recommend and they do catering as well for parties.

The lady here is extremely kind. I had an order for pickup and service was very quick. The place is also very cute inside. Tacos were flavorful and delicious but i wish i did not live so far and could come here everyday. I only get a chance to come here when i go to costco. i will be back!

Love their guacamole! As a SoCal native I am very picky & have high expectations for avocados and Mexican food. :)

Yum. Very good tacos. Price point is fantastic. I really enjoyed both salsas but the red was my favorite for sure. My boyfriend got the horchata and daaaaang was that good. We will definitely be coming back.

In terms of straight-​up taco-​flavored kisses, Taqueria Sabor Y Sazon is the closest proxy to my Houston taco trucks. Like much else in the Pilsen, it’s a no-​frills, great-​grills hole in the wall place that serves Mexican delights on the cheap.
It quickly became a favorite of my wife’s and our Texan friends, and while it’s not Tex-​Mex, it’s about as close to Texian as we’ve found round these parts.
Give it a whirl. Bring cash. Get tacos.

It is good mom and pop neighborhood place, the owner (wife) greets you and takes good care of you. Mixed Pilsen crowd. young and old, with people stopping in for takeout.
We had tacos, shrimp diablo, soup and guacamole. All decent food but not especially amazing. If you want a simple taqueria in this area, do go. I like giving business to small establishments like this.
Cash only.

First time here. Great little place that provides good authentic tacos and quesadillas. The horchata was amazing! Yummm… will definitely come again to try something else

Their food is really good and they’re so nice but I got a steak taco from them once and it looked a little weird and then I puked. food poisoning

Cute little hole in the wall. The guac and sauces are quite delectable. They put their heart into their food for such inexpensive prices. Give it a try!

I cheated.
After eating the green sauce at Taqueria Sabor Y Sazon, I became obsessed. I’d never tasted a sauce that was this delectable, flavorful, or delicious. It was like ambrosia sent down from the heavens. After the taco, I bought a big batch of it; partially to remember, but partially to copy.
Then I did some research and found out that this style of sauce is popular at a lot of Tex-​Mex places, and in Mexican places and then all over Latino cooking. I’ll take their word for it, but I’d never had anything like this before. And I’m the kind of guy who will try a drop of every sauce before the food comes out just because I love trying new sauces.
Whatever secrets they have are amazing. The chef and waitress kind of laugh it off as silly gringo being crazy, which to be fair, is true. But I can’t implore you enough to come here for this sauce. Yes the tacos are very good. Yes the chips are homemade. But the sauce ties it all together and should be inside of you.

«THEY REUSE HALF EATEN FOOD!!!»”“
Omg!!! I came here to because I love supporting local mom and pop joints. As I’m waiting for my Togo order, the owner is literally taking all the salsa left behind from the tables that just left and pouring them into Togo sauce containers (I just asked for extra sauce). I have never in my life seen such a blatant act of moral depravity. People put their saliva into these dips. EWwwweeeee. I’m asian, I’m aware of the shady, corner cutting that goes into boosting the bottom line of small businesses, but this is just plain wrong. Wow… I am still in shock. If they are doing this in front of you, imagine what they’re doing to your food when you’re not looking. WOW…
Ps…
I’m pretty sure this isn’t a practice they started just today. So for you Unilocalers who touted their food to be amazing. Did you get Togo sauce or salsa with your order? Guess what, someone was probably eating that same sauce 5 minutes ago. Grossssssss

I finally have a favorite, vegan-​friendly taco place in Pilsen! They don’t use lard! They use vegetable oil with their refried beans. Some of the other popular places in Pilsen (*cough* Nuevo Leon *cough*) even use lard with their tortilla chips.
So far, I have only had their veggie tacos, rice and beans to go. When you order, be sure to say «no cheese.» Even though the menu says that cheese is extra, they automatically put it on the beans and tacos. They replaced my tacos for no charge when I brought them back. The woman at the register even said, «Oh, nothing from animals, right? No cheese or sour cream.» I said, «Right, vegan. Nothing from animals.»
Apparently other vegans have been there before!
The veggie tacos have beans, Mexican rice, shredded iceberg lettuce, minced onions, cilantro, fresh avocado and a slice of tomato in corn tortillas. The refried beans are thick! You can see bits of bean in them. Hooray for protein! Basic tacos, but satisfying and cheap, which is what I expect from a taqueria. My friend and I also got a small bag of crunchy, lightly salted tortilla chips and spicy red salsa for free. The taco dinner is $ 7 (three tacos, rice and beans). Individual tacos are a little under $ 2 each.
My friend got the pastor, carne asada and fish tacos, and approved of all three.
Note that I forgot to ask if the rice has any sort of chicken broth in it (sometimes Mexican and Spanish rice do), but when I was looking around for lard, I didn’t see any sort of chicken broth on the shelves behind the counter.
Also, personally, I have a «don’t ask, don’t tell» policy with veggies being cooked on the same grill as meat. If I see it is, I don’t eat it, but otherwise don’t ask. Because the veggies are raw, no worry about veggie and meat cross-​contamination. I don’t know about the tortillas, though. The staff seem very accommodating there, however.
If you’re a vegan in Pilsen and looking for dinner with meat-​eater friends, urge them to walk off the beaten Nuevo Leon path to Taqueria Sabor Y Sazon.

So good!
Very happy with my pastor and pollo tacos!
The guacamole was all fresh ingredients and made to order (saw him chop it all up) — not to mention only $ 4 for a very decent portion!
The boy got the taco dinner (3 tacos, rice, and beans) and was very happy.
When you eat in, they give you chips and salsas and the salsas are great –especially the creamy green one.
Can’t beat the prices, either!
We will be back!

A pleasant, small, family-​run restaurant. I was intrigued by the overwhelmingly positive reviews, and althought food was good, it wasn’t 5-​star quality.
I got the taco dinner (3 tacos with rice & beans) and chips & guacamole. The corn tortillas were good and fresh, but the meat wasn’t as flavorful or high-​quality as I would expect given all the 5-​star reviews. The pork and beef were rather bland, and surprisingly the chicken was the highlight for me.
The green and red hot sauces were ok but not especially flavorful, and same goes for the guacamole. Actually, the rice and beans were somewhat bland too now that I think about it.
All in all, a decent, inexpensive meal. But not 5-​star-​worthy.

Other than the restaurant being a solid restaurant in terms of quality, deliciousness, service, and cleanliness. I found out they are a family owned and operated business. Just the parents and their children. They only closing ONE day out of the whole month! Their work ethics are highly commendable as I’ve eaten there for both lunch and dinner and have witnessed their children helping around immediately after coming out of school. I hope they stay open forever, this place is amazing!
They also now have an «educational special» which is either two tacos with rice and beans or a torta with a sode/​pop for $ 5! Amazing deal!

Best place for a steak burrito in Pilsen. Fresh hot chips. Very authentic feel. Any man developing a scheme to submit himself to the illusion that he is actually in Mexico will do well to incorporate a visit to this taqueria.
