2517 St Johns St, Port Moody, BC V3H 2B3, Canada
We welcome you to join us at Port Moody's newest Mexican restaurant. Our dream was always to have a business in the city we call home, to bring you Mexican craft food, based on original family recipes. Bien Venidos!
I went to this place on a whim. My mother is Mexican and has always made the best Mexican in my opinion. It's almost Christmas and growing up that meant Chile relleno , tamales and caldo. My Abuelo used to make the best Chile relleno and I've been really missing him lately. He passed a few years ago. I saw it on the menu and had to try. Obviously it was different than my Abuelos. But it was damn good. The frijoles and arroz were the best I've had in a long time. The queso fresco on the frijoles 🤌🤌muy bueno. Instantly brought memories back. The presentation of the food was great. My friend had the carnitas platter. 10/10. It was 100% the real deal. I loved everything. We will definitely be back!
I had a fantastic experience at Sabor A Mexico! The food was absolutely delicious, fajitas and nachos 🔥. Nice options for the kids. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Found a little jem in the heart of Port Moody. The food was amazing!!! So many flavors 😋 Servers were delightful and the meal arrived quickly. A treasure of a place ✨️ Thank you dinner ❤️💟💞💘❤️🔥
Sabor a Mexico may truly be the best Mexican food ever. Source? Well I ate there 😅 The service is amazing and this is a family run restaurant with extremely authentic and fresh ingredients. We had the queso fundido to start and it was nothing short of amazing. I had the Carne Asada plate and everything was beyond delicious. We tried all 3 salsas and I bought the jar of the medium heat one to take home. I’m telling you COME EAT here. Do it now.
I had dinner at Sabor A Mexico for the first time with a friend last week and had an excellent experience! The restaurant is small so I made a reservation for that night. Service was great and all employees were very friendly. The music was great. My tacos (carnitas, pastor and chilorio) were delicious as well as my spicy margarita. Will definitely be back!
Having some Mexican background, I am always curious to try Mexican restaurants to see where is the most authentic / closest in taste and ability to what I am used to. The service was very good. Originally a bit of a wait since we didn’t have a reservation, but the host walked out 5 minutes later and knocked on our car door in the rain to let us know they had a cancellation and could seat us right away. Our server was very attentive, though it did start to feel like we were rushed (maybe they had other reservations coming in and didn’t want us to overstay). We ordered the Spicy Margarita and the Mexican Mule to start since the drink reviews were strong. Was very nice to see the tequila options were good and they weren’t just using Sauza. We both asked for Maestro Dobel tequila with our drinks and they didn’t disappoint. We started with chips and salsa because I always measure quality and authenticity based on the quality of the in-house salsa. The flavour was okay, but likely would be better if it had sat for a bit to allow the flavours to seep throughout. Most of the chips were stale, which didn’t help. Then tried the queso fundido which was disappointing. Seemed to be mozzarella cheese with no added flavour and ok chorizo. Then we shared the enchiladas with salsa verde. The shredded chicken lacked flavour and there was feta cheese on top (Greek cheese, not Mexican). To anyone else’s standards this would be good quality, however I readily admit my standards are high. The best Mexican food I have found so far in BC is 4 hours away. I will continue to search the lower mainland, but would definitely return here for drinks!
Me and a friend from Honduras went here together, and the food was amazing. He said it was quite authentic tasting. The quality of the meat was amazing. However, the prices compared to portion sizes just can't be justified, for 2 dishes, and 1 drink it was over $60 before tip. It really comes down to how much you want to pay for good quality and authentic tasting Mexican food.
We visited Sabor A Mexico for the first time, and without a reservation, so we had to wait about 30 minutes for a table, so be aware to make a reservation before, as the place is quite small. The food we ordered was delicious, especially the burrito, one of the best I ever had. The chicken enchilada was amazing as well, however, the chicken inside was a bit cold. They ended up forgetting to bring our appetizer, which I really wanted to try. But I do understand they were busy and these things can happen, so not a big deal. The churros with ice cream at the end of the meal was fantastic and left us with a good impression. Overall, despite a few hiccups for a our first experience, I can say Sabor A Mexico offers a delicious authentic Mexican food and we will be coming back.
Very authentic quant lil Mexican Restaurant. Food was delicious.
Todo bien! A lovely representation of Mexico. Fresh food, friendly service. A must, when in Port Moody
very friendly owner and amazing food.
I will be back! This place is quaint, and the food is deliciously homemade. The vegan chorizo plate and vegan burritos were 10/10. Vegetarian options: 4 vegan options on the menu.
We had a very enjoyable meal and got a take out meal for one family member who couldnt make it to the restaurant. We will be returning soon.
Excellent
Music very loud volume
Food was so damn good. All the tastes, highly recommend eating here.
Very authentic Mexican. Great cocktails. A hidden gem.
Parking: Plenty behind the stores and some on the road! Food
Excellent food! The Quesabirria was 10/10.
This place rocks! Everything (including the mole) is made in house with quality ingredients. The staff are lovely, and the vibe is quiet, inviting, and family friendly.
Service was top notch and the food was authentic and delicious. Especially fond of there homemade hot sauces.
This place has really well done mexican dishes.
Well the people are also very affectionate
Great authentic Mexican food. Great staff, and the owner Cesar is also around to greet customers - super nice guy. Sorry, didn t have the time to take a picture of the food I WILL BE BACK!
Service was great, and I was impressed with the enmoladas. I can t wait to return, and try something new.
I had pork tarcos and chicken soup for lunch. The dishes arrived quickly, and they were tasty. The portions were right for a person. It would be even better if the soup was hotter.
My wife and I came here for a date night on the weekend and everything was fantastic. The food, the drinks and the service were all top notch. Definitely order the birria specials if youre able to, the tacos were phenomenal. We will definitely comeback.
GREAT PLACE & FANTASTIC STAFF
Authentic and Genuine. Will be back!! Hard to find spots like this . Great service great food and atmosphere
Loved everything about Sabor A Mexico. Shrimp Ceviche was very fresh and flavourful, Taco salad had a lovely mix of textures and their homemade lemonade was the highlight of the meal. Great customer service too. Will be back to try Birria! Dietary restrictions: Lots of items are gluten friendly and there is a number of vegan options too
Great food and service! We will be back,
Good food and great service
Listen Ill be honest- finding truly authentic awesome Mexican in the PNW, especially in BC is not easy and this place is EPIC. It is a smaller business, clearly family owned and operated and they dont miss the mark on a single thing from service, atmosphere, drinks, the food. I am here visiting from the island and my friend said this was a good place and I definitely agree! Also the price for the quality was very good considering how expensive this world is. We shared the guacamole and chips and I had the enchiladas de pollo as a main and it was Highly recommend and will love to return on my next visit here Thank you for a delightful dinner ! Vegetarian options: They have a designated vegetarian menu to view
It couldnt have a better name!!! The food made me feel at home. It tasted just like my hometown! As a Mexican myself, this place gives you all you can experience in a local mexican town friendliness and warm Mexican welcoming staff, smiles, and joy! And the food..... well the name says it all. Labor a Mexico!!! Thank you for making me feel at home!
Great experience and surprise in Port Moody
Cute little spot. Food was fairly priced and excellent. Margaritas were delicious. Bean chorizo appy and chile relleno were amazing!
The best authentic Mazatlan/Mexican food in town !!! We tried the quesabirrias and chilaquiles with chilorio Food
Every time I ve been here the experience is outstanding. It s the most authentic Mexican food in the tri-cities. You won t get more fresh salsa or ceviche anywhere else in the lower mainland. The medium salsa/hot sauce they have is to die for if you like hot. Overall I keep coming back and enjoy it every time.
Everything was good, food, service, prices, highly recommended.
LOVE love love this place! Our go to place whenever we feel like comforting food and to sip on a margarita Vegetarian & Vegan friendly: As a vegetarian I am rarely so satisfied with the taste and variety at a restaurant. Their cactus & rajas tacos are delicious! Before I was a strict vegetarian, I enjoyed their ceviche so much. Service: The service is always so kind and courteous. They welcome our baby & the mess he makes with a smile too The best Mexican food in the area, better than many OG Vancouver spots too! My husband loves the fajita asada, mexican plate here a lot. And the music is always a riot for my baby and I to move to, and my husband to get nostalgic Authentic, family run, consistent, great service, high quality, reasonably priced - you really cant ask for more! Vegetarian options: Great veggie vegan options! Rajas tacos and cactus ones - yum!
Had tried them once earlier and was not too happy with their food. But given all the good ratings, decided to come back again after a few months and this time, asked them what we should try. The waiter suggested Quesabirrias, and boy oh boy were they good. Perfectly crisped, soft, cheesy, and savory. Glad we came back and gave this place another chance. Will be back again.
We stumbled on this cute Mexican restaurant yesterday and decided to give it a shot, and boy, are we glad we did. Excellent service provided by Sebastian. We had the spicy margaritas which was SO GOOD and for food, we highly recommend the Quesabirria, shrimp tacos, and chicken enchiladas.
Vegetarian options: Multiple vegetarian and vegan options with a dedicated section of the menu. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options
Muy bueno! I ll return here and I ll recommend it to my friends! Food
I asked someone who was just leaving the restaurant how it was; she said delicious and also unique food so we went in and she was right. Wonderful meal after a stroll along the pier at White Rock.
Miguel was so helpful! The food was great and I enjoyed my Sunday night in there!
We got a reservation for two people for dinner last Sunday. Tried the enchiladas and special burrito as well the margaritas and churros! Everything was fantastic and the reviews did not lie about the churros - I will dream of them and return for them. Thank you for a lovely night!
Everything from the staff, service, drinks, to food was top notch. Will be a repeat customer any time I come to Port Moody. Authentic food. Super friendly and professional staff!
Its a nice place certainly is a little bit of Mexico at everything is fine, just delicious,
Mixed and delayed orders with lots of apologies ?? Food was ok
Good Mexican food place! The horchata water tastes just like one from Mexico, I ordered the enmoladas and they were very delicious too.
Hola amigos! I ve been meaning to write this review for a while now, and I m glad to finally share my thoughts. I frequently visit this relatively new gem in Port Moody with my family, and each experience has been consistently impressive. Sabor A Mexico truly stands out, not only for its authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine but also for its exceptional service. The staff is both friendly and professional, ensuring that your meal arrives promptly without the long waits that can sometimes dampen an evening out. The menu offers a delightful array of authentic Mexican dishes that cater to various tastes. From the rich and flavorful Enchiladas de Pollo to the perfectly cooked Carne Asada Plate, Sabor A Mexico delivers on quality and authenticity. The Tacos Gobernador, with their shrimp and poblano pepper filling, are just a standout. If you re looking to immerse yourself in genuine Mexican cuisine, I highly recommend stopping by Sabor A Mexico. It s a culinary experience that truly captures the vibrant flavors of Mexico. Trust me, it s worth it!
Place was loud. We almost left. Sort of wish we had. Food was good-ish. Churros were hard. And now I m sitting at the toilets, same with kiddo. Thinking food poisoning. They only had chicken for meat for enchiladas. I ve never had to pay for chips and salsa. Salsa was really good though.$6 for a small bowl, not refillable. $4 for a can of coke was a bit outrageous. I ve had yummier cheaper food at los takos at the mall. Would I return? Prob not.
Authentic. Lovely staff. Attentive, serviable, friendly. Chips and queso fundito was delicious. Tacos were great. Plates were also awesome. Food
Went yesterday and had what was easily one of the best meals Ive had all year. Thank you to the wonderful staff. We will definitely be back soon :)
Excellent food and super friendly / welcoming staff. Celiac safe!
Great local Mexican restaurant - delicious and authentic food at reasonable prices!
2.5/5 but rounding up. Pretty underwhelming burrito & taco salad for a hefty $45 bill. Burrito was on the small side, very little meat and dry. The taco salad was really wet and didn t have a lot of flavour. Atmosphere was buzzing so maybe it s more of a dine in vibe than the takeout we got. Or maybe we ordered the wrong dish.
You would need a bit more of a sophistication to get there. I believe you can since you show a potential.
We have tried so many Mexican restaurants, and by far this has been the best! The food is delicious, but their customer service won my heart! We went with my family for my husband s birthday on a Saturday night, without reservation. The place was full, and we waited for a table about 40min. After our long wait, still there were no tables available. Everyone seemed to be enjoying. Other restaurants probably would have just let me go, but they offered me take away in such a kind, attentive, and caring manner. They were genuinely concerned about my long wait and how to make it up. It s hard to get that kind of customer service nowadays. I highly recommend it!
Our recent culinary adventure at Sabor A Mexico was an absolute delight. Anticipation was high given the glowing reviews, and we were not disappointed. Despite a moderate wait, the prompt seating was a testament to their efficient service. A tantalizing appetizer of chips and guacamole set the stage for a truly memorable meal. The accompanying jalapeño and hot sauces were a symphony of flavors, with the former being a particular standout. The jalapeño sauce, a masterpiece of culinary artistry, elevated the dish to new heights. The vegetarian burrito was a revelation. The perfectly seasoned rice and harmonious blend of ingredients created a harmonious symphony on the palate. Every bite was a testament to the chefs skill and passion. The huarache with vegan chorizo was equally impressive, offering a distinctive and satisfying flavor profile. While our appetites were sated, we couldnt resist the allure of the churros. Though we were unable to indulge on the spot, the churros proved to be a delightful treat for our friends and their children later that evening. Sabor A Mexico is a must-visit for food enthusiasts seeking a truly exceptional dining experience. The combination of impeccable service, innovative cuisine, and a warm ambiance makes it a standout in the culinary landscape. We eagerly anticipate returning to explore the depths of their menu. Vegetarian options: Ask the server for veggie options they make it. They have vegan items on their menu.
Super rich and kind and attentive
This Mexican place in Port Moody is a gem! We ve been here now two times and the quality and taste of the food is fantastic, very authentic! The service is always very good, fast and also friendly staff. We would definitely recommend. We ordered the burrito and the chilaquiles! The tortilla soup is also a great option!
If you love Mexican food, this is your place. The enchiladas and the ceviche so just two of our faves. And the margaritas we ve had in long time! Perfect place for a girls night out. Will he back for sure!
Fantastic food & excellent service. The best Mexican Ive had in the lower mainland, sincere thanks!
Went on a Friday early evening. Had the mole while my friend had one of their specials. This place is a gem. Loved the service and music too.
Food was delicious and service was excellent. I really recommend this place. Burrito and quesabirria were very good! We picked the weekend specials. Kids loved it! Their in house guacamole was so good!
Really great service, food and drinks. The Caesar was the best I have had! Vegetarian options: Amazing veggie burrito highly recommend Food : 5/5 |
The service and the food were amazing. This was our first visit and definitely not our last. Highly recommend the spicy margarita, it was on point. Can t wait to go back again!
First time here.I was so impressed with this place. The food was amazing. I had the burrito pastor. Fresh, tangy and the right amount of spice. The manager was so friendly and I honestly felt taken care of by all the staff.
Great service and delicious food! Would highly recommend stopping in for an authentic meal with a lovely atmosphere.
From the food to the service and beyond to the vibe of this restaurant, it was perfect. I got the Chicken Burrito and my partner got the weekend special Birria Burrito. Both tasted excellent and I would definitely get them again and I want to come back and try more. Excelente!!
No wait on Sunday night. Great service with great food. Definitely come back. Love the dessert...home made sweet bread with ice cream.
A unique, small space, so I recommend you book. But very good service!
10/10! Our waiter, Sebastián, made it a great experience. Havent had a personable experience at a restaurant like that in a while. We got in quick, service was quick, large portions. Will be back!
The food is packed full of flavour, I cant wait to go again and try another delicious thing. The staff are lovely and willing to accommodate kids which is great to see.
Delicious authentic Mexican cuisine and friendly atmosphere. As a self proclaimed foodie, I highly recommend this place and their burrito.
Im big on google reviews, so I was initially skeptical when I saw this place had a 4.9 score with a decent number of reviews. This place is 100% legit. You walk in and definitely get that authentic mexican feel with the paintings on the wall and the music playing. Ive been to Mexico a couple times and I gotta say that I enjoyed the food here more. I honestly dont even know what I ordered, I just pointed to a picture and got it. Amazing 10/10. Service was great too. Everyones friendly and I think its family owned? The boss man was very kind, offering refills to our nachos and his special spicy sauce (say yes if he offers). Will definitely be back next time Im craving mexican food.
Visiting Port Moody for the first time, we found this little pearl (or diamond) with delicious, genuin, mexican food and excellent service. We recommend everyone who comes to Port Moody and want good food - go to Sabor a Mexico. Oh I forgot to mention their Marguaritas, wow.
Great food! Kid-friendliness: Kid food Food : 5/5 |
Best Mexican Ive ever had from a restaurant
Best mexican food in town! Period!
Great Mexican food
Absolutely INSANELY delicious. Got several items and after each one I would look at my partner and we would agree that was the best mexican dish we had ever had. That is until the next dish came out. Easiest 5/5 Ive ever given.
If you are in the area, scratch that, if you arent in the area, you need to drive out here just for this. Some of the best mexican food I have ever had. Great portions, really reasonable prices. And on top of that, the service and atmosphere is so welcoming, fun, and bright! The owner is so so kind and clearly passionate about his place. The homemade salsa is to die for. You can tell everything is fresh! Definitely try the ceviche and quesabirria!!!! Maybe youll get lucky and youll catch the owner singing and dancing around too 10/10 recommend and will be back
Best Mexican food I ve ever had, hands down!! Highly recommend the Quesabirria and the Jalapeno salsa
Fantastic
Very basic food, exactly the same if you do it at home. More fast food than restaurant.
Incredible food and service. Great atmosphere. Food
Delicious! This is real Mexican food, the taste is the same as if you were in Mexico, so its a great place to try it for the first time or to go if you want to remember Mexicos taste. Quesabirrias and horchata are a must. Food
Amazing authentic food. Will certainly be back for more....
Authentic, cozy and great food. Service is also excellent.
Amazing family owned
Had such an amazing experience. I wish I had found it sooner! The food was very delicious and the service was top notch. The people working here are so friendly. Reminds me so much of Mexico!
Delicious food. Fast service and friendly staff.
Dietary restrictions: They had a few gluten wise choices which was awesome Food
A place that lives up to its name, all delicious with a real flavor of Mexico . The service from everyone and even the owner is excellent, they make you feel at home, everyone is very friendly and the place is very nice and cozy. The beans and Quesabirrias are very delicious. I RECOMMEND it 100%. We will definitely go again.
Such a cute Mexican restaurant tucked away in Port Moody. My boyfriend and I have been here twice; once for dinner and once for brunch. Weve been more than happy each time. We got their tacos and burritos the first time with their Mazatlan Chorizo Beans and everything tasted amazing. Their Rajas tacos is a must try. The second time we went for brunch and got the shrimp ceviche tostada and quesebirria and both were amazing with very generous portions. The flavours of the quesebirria was scrumptious. The service is always so friendly and were definitely coming back again and again.
Quaint little Mexican restaurant in the heart of Port Moody. We had no reservations but only waited 5 mins. The food was very tasty and the service excellent. The staff kept checking on us all the time. I would definitely come back again.
The restaurant is a bit small but its clean and well decorated. Service is prompt and very friendly. The food was amazing. Great food and very fresh. You can tell they put a lot of love into the dishes they put out. I would recommend this place for anyone wanting a flavour of Mexico.
This place is a true hidden gem in the hood! We visited for brunch and had the quesabirria and Tostada with chicken. Both were so tasty that we couldn t stop saying it s so good!! Their house made jalapeño sauce (which is not in the photo) was to die for and we ended up buying a small jar of it. We shared churros for dessert and they were crispy and warm. Highly recommend adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Servers were so friendly and helpful and fast. Oh their house margaritas were very good too! We re definitely going back soon.
The food was excellent the only downside was the drinks were very small for the price you paid
So far visited twice this place, and I had great experiences! Really great food, probably one of the bast Mexican place in the hood. Friendly staff. Menu items are unique from other Mexican restaurant. Clean and cozy environment.
Unbelievably good food, atmosphere, an unpretentious place we need more of around here!
The service was exceptional! I may even add that this was the best in the GVA that I have ever experienced. My gf and I had the tacos and they were amazing. They also make a mean margarita! The space was very well decorated and though it is a bit small, it is very well divided that it didnt feel too cramped with other patrons. We will definitely be returning here.
Everything was amazing!!! I ve tried with my Mexican friends and they loved all foods we tried and we ended up buying the green sauce for dipping. I m gonna definitely try again!!!!
The house margarita was fantastic! The birria tacos were some of the best I ve ever had. The service was excellent and warm. The house made salsa was amazing and even got to take a jar home!
Amazing food, amazing service.
Delicious food! Super friendly owner and staff!
Authentic tasty Mexican food. Everyone should try! On Fri-Sun they have birria and ceviche. Highly recommend Queso Birria and Tacos. You wont be disappointed!
Friendly service, delicious food & a friendly casual atmosphere. Not cheap, but not expensive - right at average price for similar restaurants. Food costs are crazy for restaurants nowadays & they still have to make money too! Would absolutely recommend & return again.
Took my Mom here for Mother s Day. The food was so delicious, and the customer service was 10/10! Can t wait to come back with my husband!
takes me back home Lovely environment, music, food Definitely the most authentic Mexican food in ALL lower mainland! Thank you guys for keeping it real and sticking to the original recipes. Food : 5/5 |
Amazing!!! Great service & great food!
The food here is exceptional and the service is friendly and welcoming. Be sure to make a reservation on the weekends.
Surreal experience
Great food. Friendly service. Will definitely go back.
Visited this place on whim and it sure didnt disappoint. We were fortunate to get a table on a Saturday night without a reservation, but given the size of the restaurant, you may want to consider making one. The service was fast, friendly, and welcoming. I had the Enchilada de Pollo with a mix of the red and green salsa while my wife had Chile Relleno. We found the food to be fresh, delicious, and authentic. Perfect sized portion as well. Well definitely be coming back.
This is the best Mexican spot hands down in the lower mainland. Service was impeccable. Food was fresh, large portions and tasted traditional, made by a Mexican owner / staff. Really love this place! Cannot say enough about it. So happy they are in the Tri-Cities because options out here are few and far between.
Authentic, family-owned spot with amazing food and great service. Have been back many times!
Everything was delicious! Service was exceptional! I had 3 spicy margarita! I regretted not ordering the 4th . Will definitely come back for the mole!
My new favorite Mexican place!!. Thanks for the delicious food and warm welcoming service. The whole family enjoyed
The food is excellent!! I have eaten Mexican food in Mexico.
Great everything Ceasar great service I have never felt more welcome in a restaurant in my life Food : 5/5
Authentic Mexican food, really comfortable and delicious. Make sure to get a reservation. Try the Spicy Margarita!! The best!! Thanks Ceasar
Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to the entrance but might be tight maneuvering inside. Front door is REALLY stiff Food
Just visited Sabor A Mexico for dinner tonight. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly. Had Sebastian as our server and he was amazing. Will most definitely be back very soon!!
I just went here for dinner and had such a lovely dining experience. The food was delicious and made with the freshest ingredients. As a vegetarian who cannot eat gluten or dairy, dining out can be tricky, but Sabor a México had lots of great options for me. The service was excellent, the decor vibrant and stylish, and there was a lively, fun atmosphere. The owners even came to check in on us. I will definitely be coming back!
Delicious food and very good service
Sabor A Mexico provided us w some great food and bevies. We statrted w 500gram shrimp cervice w chips & recommended tortilla soup. I had chicken ensiladas w mole sauce, i felt there was a tad too much sauce, the amount supplied was not needed but i could have asked for it in side as well:) Still a very good meal. My wife had 3 tacos of which I ate one, it was tasty! We also ordered chips and Guac , the guac was excellent and we brought leftover home. Reservation recommended, small intimate place, easy parking. Server was great, provided some feedback, was engaged & polite. We enjoyed &will be back:) Our spicy & traditional lime margueritas were tasty as well in fact we had two each. Too cap off a great dinner we shared the Flan and it was very good, in fact this made me edit my review to 5 stars, as i forgot. Good food and times does cost but we enjoyed it very much. Thanks Sabor! Parking: Find it on St Johns
Very impressive Mexican Restaurant in Port Moody . Great service, delicious foods . Fresh Ceviche, tasty tacos with steak rice and beans . Flan and churros are great desserts to finish a wonderful meal . Will go back again soon !
I really liked this restaurant, the food is delicious and the service is amazing, and the Mango margarita is just amazing
I have lunch here probably once a week because it s soooooo good. I pretty much only get the chicken taco salad. It s super delicious and so much flavour. On a rainy day I ll get the chicken soup. There s nothing else around that serves soup and it completely hits the spot. Came here for dinner recently and had the enchiladas and ceviche which were super tasty. Margaritas are great too. The stay are super friendly and the owner really takes pride and makes everyone feel welcome and happy.
Sabor A Mexico is the best in the town , I highly recommend. Food yummy Wonderful service Staff and owner are cheerful and helpful!
Nice cozy restaurant with friendly atmosphere. The portion was quite large. Our family favorite was the nachos to share with pork.
Authentic Mexican food, great flavours and service.
Took my girlfriend here was super yummy. Owner was super nice and welcoming
So accommodating, delish food, great place to eat!
Great food and atmosphere, can t wait to go back. My son loved the food and he Can be a picky eater. Food
Great food, reasonable prices, and incredible service.
Guacamole was bland, service was good very small and cramped and tables too small.
Best traditional mexican food in the area, the birria served here tastes like Mexico ! Props to Cesar for being a great host !
Tried for first time tonight. Wonderful fresh food. Some of the best Mexican I have tasted. The service was amazing with the owner greeting upon entry and the server being so prompt and attentive to our orders. Will definitely be back!
Best mexican the Tri Cities has to offer! While the menu is on the smaller side, they clearly focus on the items they can consistently produce with quality. Cant wait to come back and try brunch.
We recently decided to give this nee restaurant a try and were happy we did! Food and service were all excellent, and we ll definitely be back!
The staff and food are lovely. Truly a Mexican experience. The staff are warm and welcoming, very authentic!
Absolutely delicious! Wonderful service from the staff. Will definitely come back for more.
The best hole in the wall in Port Moody! We live nearby and have seen this location change faces many times over the last few years, so we were so excited to try out Sabor A Mexico. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! We had Sams margaritas, which were delicious grapefruit margaritas on the rocks. Having just been to Mexico in January, this was honestly better than most of the drinks we had while there! The chips and salsa were so fresh and full of flavour. The chicken burrito was stuffed FULL of tender chicken, and the tortillas were so soft. And finally, the staff made the whole experience above and beyond. They treat you like family, and the atmosphere and service are what is definitely going to have us coming back often. Cannot recommend enough - a true stand out as possibly the best restaurant in Port Moody!
I ordered The Enchiladas de Pollo, and OMG, they were finger licking good. The food is authentically delicious. I highly recommend this little gem. The owners are warm hearted and welcoming. I will definitely be a return customer, as well as refer friends and family
Four of us had dinner, and it was excellent! The staff and the owner were so attentive and helpful. The food was amazing. We will definitely go back. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Awesome small authentic Mexican restaurant. The food is not fancy, it is more like home cooking, which we enjoyed very much. Very friendly staff as well.
Beautiful hidden gem in port moody serving delicious authentic Mexican food! Highly recommend checking this place out!
Excellent authentic Mexican food. A hidden gem in Port Moody
Authentic Mexican food, Sinaloan style, the best
An absolute gem in Port Moody! Friendly and welcoming staff with some of the most flavourful and delicious food Ive ever had. Portions are well-sized with unique touches like homemade hot sauces. Definitely the best Mexican food in the tri-cities in my opinion! Recommend resos on the weekend as there was a waitlist by 6pm.
Lovely dinner experience with delicious food and a delightful personal atmosphere. Incredible flavors. Enjoyed the whole experience as a cute dinner outing with my partner. Will definitely be returning.
The food is amazing. You can really tell its authentic, although a little bit on the pricey side. Amazing service too. The only negative from our experience was that the main course, a dish weve never had before, tasted like peanuts. My boyfriend has a peanut allergy, but there was no indication that this dish contained peanuts on the menu and we were never asked upon ordering. We confirmed that the dish did in fact contain peanuts (the chicken mole for anyone curious). We understand that its also our fault for not bringing up the allergy before, but its also important that the menu is as clear as possible for everyone to have a great experience. We loved what we had before the main course and we will definitely be coming back.
amazing food, great service
Great food, so flavourful! Definitely a hidden gem.
Delicious
Great service. Happy positive experience.the food gets a chefs kiss. Highly recommend
Read about peoples positive experiences at this new restaurant, so went to check it out for lunch. There was some construction out front, but parking was easy. The decor is nice, and reading other peoples reviews, it looks like theyve responded by adding some cushions to the wooden benches to make it more comfortable. Service was friendly and quick. The brunch menu was available. Had the Enchiladas de Pollo and Guacamole & Chips with a side of Pico de Gallo for 2 people with a plan to order the Tortilla Soup if it wasnt enough. The chips were fresh, seemed homemade with a sprinkle of salt. Both the pico de gallo and guacamole were fresh with good colour and flavour, but my favourite was a jalapeno sauce that they brought out that had a nice punch of heat and was flavourful. The Enchiladas were tasty, and came with a side of rice, beans, and we were asked to choose between green or red sauce (or both). I feel that it could have come with a spoon for the sauce, or better yet have them in separate containers as everything melded together. Although the taste was good, I didnt find that any of the flavours popped. The amount was enough for 2 people, and we didnt need to order the backup Tortilla Soup. The prices are a little high, but is on par with what weve seen restaurant pricing do recently with the cost of everything going up.
10/10 would 100% reccomend coming here. Best Mexican food I ve had in greater Vancouver
We showed up, party of 5, not realizing we should make reservations. The owner greeted us with smiles and kind words. He was able to get us seated within 20 minutes. While small, the servers and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend.
Excellent service, food and drinks. What a welcome addition to Port Moody. I highly recommend the ceviche and queso fundido. Both were excellent. This place will easily become a go to for us!
My favourite is the quesabirria but they obly make it on Friday-Sunday .
One of the best traditional Mexican food Ive had in lower mainland. I highly recommend, owner/chef came out to show appreciation. I will be back next time Im in the area!
I used to frequent the previous mexican restaurant at this location and was so pleasantly surprised by the amount of effort put in to revitalizing this place! The decore is great and the food is even better! I shared some birria tacos and mole and still took food home! This is going to be a regular spot for me again=)
Service was amazing! Food was spectacular. Very impressed!
Exceptional service and delicious authentic Mexican food. We enjoyed the meal and atmosphere of this family run business. Looking forward to my next visit.
Everything was excellent and we are glad we found this place. Owner was very nice and food was the best
First time trying this restaurant!!! AMAZING! I ordered the chicken enchiladas, they were great, fresh and perfect portion. We got take out and 100% will be back to eat in the restaurant!
This restaurant was a very nice surprise. Authentic Mexican flavours (I am Mexican and can confirm it) in a very quaint restaurant and super friendly and efficient service. Totally recommend visiting SAM as they call it (Sabor A Mexico)! We will be back to try now the breakfast options.
Was totally floored by the food quality and service. What a great gem in Port Moody!
Amazing food, but the best thing here is their service. In just a week Ive been here 2 times and the service has been beyong expected. Will definetly come back!
Delicious food, but the best thing here is the service. In just a week I have already been 2 times. I would return a thousand times more!
Would highly recommend this little gem. The team is so warm and friendly, the atmosphere is vibrant yet cozy and the food is authentic, delicious and fresh. We had the chicken fajitas, chile relleno, Sams margarita x 2 and a couple Pacifico. Cant wait to go back and try more things on the menu. Yum! Also, I have a nut allergy and the menu did clearly state what I should stay away from. Much appreciated.
I have only good things to say about the restaurant. Most authentic mexican food there is in GVA! The tacos were amazing! Rajas (roasted pepper) and carnitas (pulled pork) are our absolute favs! Rajas go well with the creamy cheese and the carnitas are crunchy and flavorful. It s our third visit here and they have never once disappointed. The tortas were incredible. Crunchy and herby buns. The taste and texture of the sauce and the carnitas were perfectly balanced. Servers are really friendly and check on us from time to time to refill water etc. The atomsophere is really relaxing! Definitely coming back for more!
Great staff/service. Food was fresh and very good. Nice place.
We randomly found this restaurant and absolutely LOVED it!! Such a warm and friendly atmosphere and the food was incredible. The service was impeccable. We will be coming back here again and bringing our friends and family!
Ive been to alot if Mexican restaurants around. I was impressed by the service and the great food. I do recommend for people to try it.
Amazing flavours and food. The jalapeño sauce is to die for. Friendly service! The lighting is a little dim. Vegetarian options: Very accommodating to vegetarians.
Such a lovely, authentic, family-run business. You can absolutely sense the pride and warmth here. Highly recommend!
Vegetarian options: Yes Dietary restrictions: Supportive to their customers requests. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes
All of the food was absolutely delicious but specifically the quesabirrias its a must try. Our waitress recommended the jalapeño dip to pair with our guacamole, not only was it an excellent pair but went with every dish we shared :) Service was amazing throughout the entire dining experience! Will definitely be back soon
What a great new find in Port Moody featuring Mexican flair of delicious food
Went in for a quick brunch. So glad we did. The food is full of flavour and very authentic. Everything is made in-house and you can tell with each bite. The servers are so friendly and very helpful by making suggestions for food items. Great experience!
Loved it
We ordered Mole and Chile Relleno. We loved and the services
A wonderful place for excellent mexcain food. I love the weekend special menu. Support your local business I will be back for the Ceviche alone as its so fresh and delicious. The tacos are also so good and very favorable meats. Dont sleep on the their salsas either very excellent to have with your dish.
Delicious Mexican cuisine with vibrant flavors and generous portions. The tacos were especially noteworthy, featuring perfectly seasoned meats and fresh toppings. The cozy ambiance and friendly staff added to the overall enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommended!
Its such a nice place and a cozy atmosphere. I had Taco with carnitas, delicious. Real taste of mexican food. Great service, and food was served on less than 10 minutes. I will visit them again soon to try other things in their menu. Food : 5/5
One of the best dining experiences Ive ever had, the friendly service, warm and inviting atmosphere and incredibly flavourful and authentic food made us feel like we were in the owners dining room at their home. Margaritas, Mole and Tacos were on a level that even impressed my girlfriend who is a skilled and talented chef herself. If you havent been before, call ahead and reserve a table as there are just 15 or so available. This is the type of establishment that I would drive 45 minutes each way for, which I would rarely do, and I love food! Thank you to the owners and their family members for being a special part of the Port Moody and Lower Mainland!
Had a great dinner at Sabor. The ceviche tostada and enchiladas de pollo were excellent. Highly recommended.
Great food, and great service. It was a great experience for me and my family. We will come back for sure!
I found this restaurant after searching at Google. Its a small place, but the cute interior makes it cozy. The food is really delicious and the staff are really friendly. It was a bit disappointing that the amount of food was small compared to the price. Also,one more thing was that the season was winter, so the wooden bench was very cold and hard, and the area near the window was a bit cold. It would be nice to have a cushion to sit on on the wooden bench. These are why I cannot give 5 stars.
Dinner was yummy authentic Mexican; awesome margs; great service; the owners are super friendly & accommodating; without a doubt the best Mexican in Tri-Cities; cant wait to go back!
Cute little restaurant with amazing food! The guacamole was plentiful and delicious, and the fresh homemade chips were amazing. Tacos were awesome. The owner and his employees seem to really enjoy being there and to be having a good time, which is a very nice touch!
Super friendly staff and excellent food. Owner is from Mazatlan and chef from Veracruz. The resulting fusion cuisine is distinctive and very tasty. Construction on St. John Street hampers their visibility, but figure out a way around that. Definitely worth the effort.
Great food, everything that we had was really tasty. Super inviting staff and great atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back to try some other items on the menu! Thanks
We went for dinner, it was fantastic! We had their SAMs Signature Margaritas, and their mole sauce is fantastic. Their burrito is also incredible. Everything about the experience was fabulous, we will definitely be back!
Great mexican food in an inviting space. I had the horchata with my chicken mole, and really liked it. Would highly recommend if youre in the area.
We live just down the road in Port Moody and were excited to try out this new place for dinner last night. It did not disappoint - it was lovely! All the staff service was excellent, the owner was around and made us feel very welcomed, like family, and the food was delicious. We had the Mexican plate and the Carne Asada Plate. And I would say the highlight was definitely the cheese filled poblano peppers, wow. The tortilla chips were also divine with the jalapeno salsa. We will definitely be back to try the entire menu. 10/10, thank you!!
Great food and service! Well be back!
Authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine. We particularly enjoyed the huarache de carnitas, the tortilla soup, the jalapeno salsa (ask Cesar for it), and the flan. Cesar, the owner, is a great host and the service from the staff was prompt and friendly. We will be returning to enjoy the birria soon!
Very nice place for any type of celebration. % family atmosphere. Very delicious food and good portions, highly recommended place!!! Good luck Cesar!!!!
Cute little restaurant with amazing food and brilliant service!
The food, service and ambience were amazing! One of our favorite places to go now.
Wonderful food and service
