SABORmx

absolutely amazing food with exceptional service. this isn’t run-​of-​the-​mill mexican food… this is gourmet and unique. every dish has an unexpected surprise… like pomegranate seeds in freshly made guacamole. the sangrias are light, refreshing and full of flavor. the prices are a bit higher than the typical mexican restaurant but the food is so much better and i would pay more it.

The restaurant itself is nice and appears very clean. Our hostess and waitress was very friendly and was attentive. Unfortunately she forgot my husband had a Sprite and refilled his glass with water, but if my husband would have mentioned it to her I’m sure she would have fixed it in a heart beat.
Now my plate was a little underwhelming. It was not bad, but I think I was expecting more for the price, not so much more volume but maybe something that stood out and in the case the rice, beans, and tacos were okay. I ordered grilled tacos with no tomatoes and that’s exactly what I got grilled tacos with lettuce and a side of rice and beans. It did come with a sauce, but It wasn’t for me. I do appreciate that they put the sauce on the side instead of on top the tacos. I just had to douse my tacos with their salsa to get I guess the flavor I wanted. Would have liked some different toppings or a substitute for the tomatoes.
Overall, not a bad place to eat, but on the pricier side.

$ 5 happy hour margaritas? Yes please! AND they were good! We just loved this place! Had been wanting to try it for a long time and we weren’t disappointed. Everything was very fresh, our waiter was the owner and the guacamole was delicious! It is like fancy Mexican food. It is a little higher priced than your typical Mexican joint, but the food was delicious which made it worth it!

This is one of our favorite places in Fresno. The food is ALWAYS amazing… they are happy to accommodate special orders… the owners always come out to welcome you and make sure your meal is exactly what you hoped it would be… and the atmosphere is elegant yet comfortable and inviting. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Part of me wants to keep it a secret so we can always get our favorite table, and the other part of me wants everyone who reads this to try it so the restaurant will thrive and stay in business forever. Sigh. Quite the dilemma… :)

My first time here with my bff on a Sunday fun day adventure. We love finding new places to eat! I’m big on Mexican food, but this was really fresh Mexican food! I ordered aguachile (Serrano peppers lime sauce with shrimp cucumbers cilantro). Perfect with chips! With any of the 3 sangrias cuz we tried it all! We ordered street tacos (nothing special, it’s mediocre. It’s the only thing I wasn’t a big fan of. Wish the meats were not as dry n had more seasoning. The shrimp was better.) we ordered barbacoa it was a five star dish! It’s amazing!!! Get it! We ordered the passion fruit mojito. It was good, but too sweet n thick. Too much juice not enough club soda or alcohol. I suggest they add more club soda. We also ordered desserts! Molten lava cake was moist and gooey I loved it! But the other one was a bonuelo but it fell flat, it didn’t have any filling. If it had a custard filling it would have been perfect. Last but not the least, the michelada. They used a good base and I ordered it with modelo n I asked for more sauce n spice. It taste great! Over all, we had a great Sunday Sunday and can’t wait to go back! Great customer service, great food, fresh ingredients, price could be better though. Wish they had more specials and weekend deals to advertise their restaurant. Five stars!

Excellent food and excellent service, best mexican food in town, the guacamole to start was delicious then I got a chilles rellenos… is something that I can’t describe… so tasty!!!
I recommend this place for sure, we will be back soon for sure too.

You will never find another Mexican restaurant with GREAT SERVICE, CLEANLINESS and WELL PREPARED FOOD.
keep in mind that SABORMX is not your typical MEXICAN RESTAURANT, Its not.
I had the fish street tacos and my bf had La Barbacoa accompanied with a seghesio Zinfandel, everything was so delicious.

I never thought I would find myself raving about a Mexican restaurant, as I’ve eaten it my whole life, and figured I’d seen it all. For months, I’ve wanted to eat here. But after a look at the menu prices, I was sure I’d have to save up for it. Well just last week, some friends were talking about «that Mexican restaurant on The Loop.» I expressed my concerns about the prices, when they mention the weekend brunch. I immediately saw my opportunity. So after my wife said she wanted a quesadilla, I knew where I was going. So sad to see the place empty. I would never wish it upon any restaurant owner. But I’ve read too many good reviews of this place to not give it a try. I’m trying to eat on a budget, so price was more important than finding something I really wanted (like the fajitas). I thought I was settling when I ordered the tamales. On the drive home, I could smell the food from all the way in the back of the SUV. The to go bag looked so fancy too. I knew my wife would be interested to know just where I went. As I unpacked everything, it looked so good. With the first bite, I knew I had been missing out all these months. The green sauce is so good. Not a fan of beans and rice, so I always mix them together with whatever sauce or meat my main side came with. But I tried them individually out of curiosity. The rice was decent, the beans were just regular olé beans with Mexican cheese on it. But together with the green sauce, I tore it up! Haven’t enjoyed a meal like this in quite some time. I’m going to tell everyone about Sabor MX

My husband and I went here for dinner last night, we loved it! It’s nice to have a more refined sit down Mexican food option for date night that’s close to the house. Their salsa and guacamole were SO good, all fresh and great flavor. For our meals I got the Salmon and veggie plate, loved it and my hubby got the steak plate with potatoes and asparagus, wow the meat was SO good, they used a really delicious sauce and the meat was very tender (pics attached). We will definitely be going back.

It was quiet when we arrived… Only two other tables… But the service was excellent from the first minute. Delicious, fresh chips and yummy salsa. We had chicken nachos and an asada burrito, and my son had a burrito as well. All was fresh and light (for Mexican food!). I’d bring back the family for sure!

Food and service was excellent, I truly believe this place is doing something outside the box. My only issue would be work on the desserts. Just missing the mark.
Other then that we will be back.

If you don’t try the guacamole you’re missing out! It’s the most amazing flavor! Pomegranate mixed in!!! Fabuloso!!!

The location is hard to find but its the finest Mexican food I have had when visiting Fresno.
The restaurant used fresh authentic ingredients. The salsa, horchata, rice, and beans all tasted like they came from a family members household.
Really enjoyed the tacos and enchiladas (red and green). Everyone else enjoyed their dishes.
The interior décor was modern bright Mexico. Service was excellent.
We heard weekend brunch was starting soon.
I’d recommend this location. My only issue was that from the outside you can’t tell its a restaurant since it’s in a business/​shopping center.

We are very pleased to have SABORmx in our neighborhood! According to food writer Bethany Clough of The Bee, the MX is a reference to Mexico, but to me, it means «mix,» as in a perfect mix of Mexican, Southwestern, and American comfort food. Fusion menus of various types have been a trend for some time now, but this particular fusion is very unique and well done. This was our first visit and we had the Carne Asada and Barbacoa, as well as a shrimp cocktail appetizer, a Margarita, and two desserts. Preparation was very good on all of the dishes we tried.
It is always a pleasure to see a really well run independently owned and operated business in our neighborhood and we will certainly do our best to get the word out to all of the Unilocaler Foodies in the 93 711 and beyond to give SABORmx a try.
A couple of other items that really impressed us: the service was excellent and the décor and design of the restaurant, menu, takeout containers, patio seating, etc. were top notch! We can’t wait to visit SABORmx again soon.

Had a nice evening at SaborMX. Atmosphere is plain/​simple yet comfortable. The customer service is outstanding! Jimella, our waitress, did a wonderful job! Food was great and reasonably priced. I had the barbacoa dish and my wife had a mix of 3 different tacos… chicken, asada, and fish. Fish were the best of the 3 tacos. The roja sangria was very delish! Also, the chocolate lava cake was a perfect finishing touch. Happy that it’s close to our house and we’ll be back! Nice job guys… thanks for takin care of us!

First of all I’d like to point out that this is not your typical Mexican restaurant, I’d like to refer this place as a Mexican cuisine fusion. A Mexican food theme with a touch of modern culinary; a guacamole with pomegranate is one of many noticeable twist.
From the wall décor to the menu; this place is trying to separate itself from your typical Mexican restaurant. I would say that this place is trying to cater to health conscious consumer who still love Mexican food. Food portion is more than enough to fill you but not to glut you. Foods were tasty, from nachos to tacos to desserts.
Service are fantastic; when we were done, the owner even run to open the door for us.
I would recommend this place to people who crave Mexican food while watching their diet.

Entryway: please clean up trash in front of your restaurant, first impressions are important.
Dining room: very nice décor.
Staff: very good.
Food: Very good.

Upscale Mexican food, with red wine reductions and pineapple garlic aioli. The carne asada was heavenly, so heavenly that my 2 year old son ate 45% of it (including the asparagus and potato sides). My wife loved her salmon and veggies. Service was great, brimming with helpful hints and thought provoking pleasant conversation. Lunch hour was not too crowded but it will be once word of mouth picks up. The lava cake was legit. The price tag about $ 50 for everything. I recommend, and would return in a flash.

I have visited this establishment to support our local businesses. First of all, I was very pleased with the ambiance of the restaurant, clean, spacious, and not overwhelming décor. The service is superb! Santos, co-​owner, makes sure to provide the best experience. Not to forget he makes amazing cocktails, I was very delighted :)
Now to the food, well I had plenty of Mexican food in my life. In my opinion, I find Mexican cuisine in general too heavy, very greasy, and fattening. I can only tolerate it once every three months because I feel bloated after eating it. For those reasons that’s why I love SaborMx, because their food is healthier, the portions are just big enough to satisfy your appetite, and you can tell they put a lot of thought to make their food fresh.
If you’re looking for a huge platter that can feed an army, this is not your place. SaborMx has a different approach and brings a different experience from the common Mexican restaurants you’ll find around town. This is not your typical crowded taqueria. So don’t search here for 20 different selections of meat tacos, burritos, or salsas.
Their concept is to elevate authentic Mexican food with a modern twist of fresh ingredients and healthier options.
Keep up the good work SaborMx! I’ll be back for my Mexican food fix :)

Excellent fish tacos in this small neighborhood eatery. Service is very attentive and everything we ate was delicious. I am partial to really good beans, and Sabor’s are really good.
Also, they serve horchata, a favorite of mine.
Do not go here expecting the usual Fresno Mexican fare. Sure, there are chips and salsa brought to the table at the beginning of the meal, but the rest of the food is more upscale and flavorful than you will find in most Mexican restaurants. And for that difference you will be paying a bit more. It is a pleasant experience.
