"One guest called Noreen Desmond seems to think that a busy food establishment can get fantastic food out in less than 30 minutes. Well this place makes everything from scratch and when busy the food can take a while but thats to be expected. If you want food quick go to another establishment that fries or microwaves everything from either the freezer or already cooked by a supplier and heated up. You should also take at least 30 minutes to consume your food and if the home cooked chips came with salt and vinegar on them their would be plenty of complaints. That's what the salt cellar and condiments are there for, so you can season your food to your liking. Now this place is absolutely fantastic and they accommodate your every need as best as possible. I for one appreciate the effort that goes into every dish here. Someone peels a lot of spuds and hand cuts them for all those homemade chips and roast potatoes as most restaurants these days use frozen fries and roast potatoes so not fresh at all. If you want a great meal that a lot of effort has gone into it with fresh produce and cooked like at home then this is your place and Karen's need not visit if all they can do is moan as if she thinks this food is bad then god knows what she thinks of thousands of other places that really are dire"

Oh my lord! What a place! I.poppednin with my family for a quick lunch and a drink before going to family events. I left there a changed man! We ordered lunch for 3, there was enough food to feed at least 6!! The liver and bacon was one of the best I have ever tasted! Came as whole livers, rather than all chopped up, succulent, just amazing! The wife had a huge burger that she couldn't finish, there was so much, it was fresh, tasty and just what the doctor ordered! They had flood damage recently and are getting back on their feet, and doing very well at it! Defo can't recommend this place enough. Just wish I lived closer, I would come back in a heartbeat. Thanks for making that part of our h...

"I had high hopes for this restaurant based on the reviews but Unfortunately I can’t say I very much enjoyed my first and potentially last trip to Sabroso. Firstly let me say that we got the food as a takeaway. Now, I’m not a big fan of writing bad reviews. I would rather write a review praising the establishment to allow others to try as we have. However, we were mislead by the reviews and feel that maybe we caught them on a bad day. Nevertheless we had a bad experience. We started with some soft chicken tacos which *spoiler alert* were the best thing that we tried. The flavour was great. The meat quantity was perfect. A great little starter if you’re willing to share. I was getting really excited at this point. However, it’s a slow decline from here. The fried jalapeños were not great. Felt and tasted manufactured if I’m quite honest and with the chilli dip to go with it, which was most certainly ‘crucials extra hot chilli sauce’ that you get in most takeaways these days, I was feeling slightly let down. You would think a Mexican/ tex mex restaurant would at least make a good chilli sauce. For the main, I had a Beef Chilli burrito, which I asked to be made a little spicier, and it Was flavourless. Mainly tasted like cheese and was packed with rice, which I understand that’s what a burrito should be But there was barely any meat/ chilli. I was thinking if my chicken tacos were that tasty I can’t wait for the burrito but it was bland. No flavour to the Mexican rice and there wasn’t any spice to be found. I was very disappointed to say the least. The missus had chicken enchiladas and had this to say: large portion with a substantial amount of chicken but could only really taste tomatoes. Too saucy and rather flavourless. The onion rings and sweet potato fries tasted like they came from a packet. Overall a solid 2 out of 5. I had high hopes from the reviews but it really wasn’t much to shout about. Nothing really Mexican in sight except the tacos. Do not let our review stop you from trying the food for yourselves and maybe you’ll have a better experience If you eat in the restaurant rather than a takeaway. Enjoy yourselves. Nick and Becky."
