“i got the quesabirria plate and chocoflan, it was AWESOME, i’m from st. louis visiting chicago for a vacay and im so glad i ate here!!! everyone was super sweet!”

“Stopped in for lunch, and the food absolutely impressed me. Enchiladas are one of my favorite treats, and Sabroso makes excellent Enchiladas. I placed a to‑go order on a Wednesday afternoon, and my food was ready the moment I walked in.Parking, however, is extremely tight. There’s a bus stop directly in front of the restaurant, so those spaces are off‑limits. Ashland Ave had no available parking for a couple of blocks, and the nearest side street is permit‑only. I eventually found a spot about a block and a half west on a side street. I imagine parking would be even more difficult during dinner hours.Despite the parking hassle, the food was absolutely worth the trip.”

“such a nice restaurant and staff is lovely and recommended awesome items!!! Food is so yummy”

“I’ve been coming to Sabroso for a few years now. Their dishes have always been tasty and the service is quick and friendly—Juan is so friendly and thoughtful!! What I MUST level a review for is the best Mexican dish I’ve enjoyed in Chicago—the ultimate fajita (chicken, steak, and shrimp). Oh my goodness. The meat is seasoned well and it’s juicy, and the “pot liquor” is the glue. I don’t even need to get the rice and beans with it because the side salad is a perfect complement (lettuce, pico, guac, sour cream).”

“The food and the atmosphere was exactly what we were hoping for. Large and delicious servings. We will be back.”

“Great food, great service! Will be back the next time I come to Chicago”

“The best Mexican food I've ever had, starting with that amazing tortilla soup, chips, salsas,the main course and deserts everything was delicious. Highly recommended!”

“I will say it was one of the most delicious, traditional meat dinner I ever had before. The taste was incredible, I felt like back home and they were very friendly. And actually, they know about good music because the playlist. Pocas veces encuentras lugares que te degustan el paladar, “sabroso” restaurante fue una experiencia culinaria. El sabor auténtico a la comida tradicional mexicana. Sin duda, uno de los mejores restaurantes mexicanos. 100% recomendado Siempre hay que apoyar a los paisanos, muchas gracias por el servicio fue excelente!”

“We finally found salsa that makes our noses runny because they were spicy and good! We recommend getting the refried bean in the plates. We also recommend the red mole chicken!”

“We had such a great lunch here. The food was great, but the service was even better. Everyone we interacted with was so kind and attentive. It felt like dining at a fiend’s house. I can’t say enough good things. I wish I lived closer so that my could come more often, but I’ll definitely keep it in mind when I’m in the area.”
