Sabor Tropical Restaurant

Sabor was the unexpected highlight of my weekend. We chanced upon it and made a reservation. The food was very well prepared, generous in portion, and incredibly delicious. The staff was very hospitable. I will definitely return.

45mins after ordering no food. Waitress didn’t check on us and another waitress came up 30mins in and asked if we got our order in yet. Ended up leaving without eating.

If you’re having staffing issues, Don’t take reservations and don’t seat over your kitchens capacity. This establishment is poorly managed.

To be fair, it was our first time there so take this with a grain of salt.
We arrived and only two other tables and one space at the bar were occupied. In spite of a low client count, it took a half an hour for a server to come to our table. None of these times are exaggerations. I ordered a Bloody Mary. It never came until I asked about it again. We were told our food was coming shortly. The place got fairly crowded. We saw 2, yes 2 tables get actual food. One of them was clearly upset getting the wrong food. After an hour we asked again where our food was. Never came. An hour and ten minutes later we were starving and fed up. We left more money than we should have and left. They tried to stop us saying our food was almost ready. We had lost all faith in the place. We will never, ever go there again. I strongly recommend you go somewhere else. It was the worst service we have ever received.

Our reservation was not their when we arrived. Appetizer we ordered was not the appetizer we received. Ordered drinks we never received. An item from my dish was missing from my plate. Apparently the restaurant was short staffed was the explanation we were given. Nothing was accommodated on the bill for these issues.

It was a nice relaxing experience, the employees there where nice and respectful.

It was very crowded on Saturday night, tables very close to one another, people roaming around and children running all over. Food was fabulous and our server was very attentive though it took awhile at first.

Great fajitas! Friendly service. Will definitely be back!

This was my husband's and I first time at this restaurant, we went on a Monday so the restaurant was not busy. The food was flavorful and unique. The waiter was attentive, it was pricey, but worth a different eating experience, the food tasted authentically ethnic.

Great food and service. Helpful suggestions from the wait staff.

We invited friends to join us. Took over an hour to get food. Not much contact with staff.

I had the Pernil, and it was the best pork roast I've had outside of Latin America! My wife ordered the Salmon and absolutely loved it! we cannot wait to go back!!

Just ok. The crab cake appetizer tasted like it had been frozen and warmed up in the microwave. We both got shrimp which wasn’t bad, but the sides lacked in flavor. Drinks were pretty tasty. Service was slow. Don’t think we will be back.

fun atmosphere and pretty decent food. our server really knew the menu and had some good recommendations to try. Drink menu also good and everyone in the group enjoyed their beverages.

Great place for eat, & have time together with family. Love it <3

Try the pernil. It's incredible. Staff is friendly and helpful.

A nice little off-the-wall place in Bay View. Highly recommended.

We ended up not eating here. Made a late night reservation and we walked in to find all the chairs on top of the table for floor cleaning. Really? Don’t accept reservations if you are not going to honor them.

The staff was short, so the service was slow. But the staff was nice and attentive. My mom really liked the food - and she's really picky. We'll be back.

Real, real, REAL Latin food. Everything was fresh and the flavors were excellent. We had stuffed Tostones, a variety of Empanadillas, the Ropa Vieja, Pernil, 2 kinds of Mofongo, the Jibarito Sandwich and Nutella Flan.

The service was quick and kind. I can't reccomend them highly enough. If you aren't familiar with Latin food outside of Mexican, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed. They are serving authentic food that is hard to find.

Everything that everyone ordered was delicious. Apps, drinks, main course, and dessert delish! We all said we would definitely come back.

Puerto Rican rice was cold and a very small portion, I ordered the lomo de res and it was sooo spicy I had to now wait while my family was eating to get another dinner without the spice, they should honestly mention it in the menu and I dont know why they would even add spice to it, it is not a Mexican restaurant. The only thing that was good was the coquito but make sure to order it with very light cinnamon because they put so much on top it's crazy, half a cup for$8 but it was good.

Great new place in Bayview. Reasonably priced, nice sized portions.

Awesome food and great service

The food was excellent. The pisco sour is one of the best I've ever had. The food is delicious, well-portioned, and balanced.

The lobster mofongo, the service and drinks were amazing. I loved the paintings on the wall and the neighborhood is quaint. Parking wasnt that great but well worth it.

The food was excellent. Prices were a little on the higher end, but appropriate for the food quality. My only “complaint” was the timing of the food. Something wasn’t coordinated appropriately and everyone’s food came out at different times. This was my first time here so I’m not sure if there was a staffing issue or what. That would not deter me from visiting again though. All 7 of us were extremely satisfied with the food. The staff was friendly and accommodating.
