Ordered a to-go order over the phone, it was fast and the lady was super sweet. (Even ran out to my car with cold items that were not in the bag I had).

Got food delivered on Uber eats. Birria was nasty, yellow rice was nasty, empanadas were nasty and placed on lettuce making it soggy by the time it arrived. Even the tortilla chips were nasty! How tf do you make nasty tortilla chips. They were chewy not crunchy and the salsa was filled with too many onions. I’m mad I wasted so much money and will never eat here again. Thumbs down

We tried plátanos with beans, pupusas, tamales, horchata, everything was delicious, a place to comeback.

So I ordered food from this establishment and the beans tasted spoiled, the salad was not fresh and the chicken was dry! Very disappointed, I called the restaurant, I spoke to a women and she told me I can bring her back the food but because I touched it, I wouldn’t be getting my money back. So upsetting…

I ordered some pupusas and the lady didn’t even take my name down just hung up on me and when I got to the restaurant she she didn’t know who’s order was who’s. Then when i was about to pay i realized they raised the pupusas by $1 each I was thinking ok whatever ill just pay them but when I got home I was very very disappointed to see that my pupusas barely had anything inside them so I pretty much paid $30 for 8 tortillas and 3 sodas thats BS if you gonna raise your prices at least make them right!! Worst experience ever!!

Delicious Salvadoran food! A great menu, breakfast all day, and great service. They make really good fruit drinks all mixed from fresh ingredients in house. Steak & cheese pupusa was my favorite today. I’ll be back to try more things soon!

Sabor Latino is the real deal ! Romona the owner is absolutely amazing. If you are looking for a true Dominican experience, you HAVE to go to Sabor Latino and see Romona . The hospitality is unmatched anywhere we went in Puerto Plata , Romona is like family , it was like we had known her our whole life . The beer is served perfectly cold . The food was absolutely amazing and delicious, we had a traditional Dominican Republic dinner with fried fish, chicken with gravy and beans with rice and all the fixings . We had dinner with her and her family and friends. It was something we are so grateful for.

Really good Pupusas!!! The ambiance was not the greatest, as no music was playing. I guess I’ve become accustomed to listening to music in Latino restaurants. Anyways, that was okay because the serenity allowed me to listen to the kitchen and the hand-slapping goodness that was about to become my fresh hand-made pupusas! Let me tell you, they did not disappoint! The pupusas were generous in size and was well accompanied by a cold bottle of Coca-Cola (cane sugar formula from latin america). Careful with the fresh jalapeño pepper in their slaw, it packed a punch. 5 stars if they had a little ambiance going. The place itself a bit run down and the pictures on the wall scream, “I was once a Chinese restaurant!!!”. Next order I place will be to-go. Try their chicharron and cheese pupusas. I left my phone in the car charging, so I’ll add a picture next time I visit.
