El Sabor de mi Tierra

I am all about finding great hole-in-the-wall local eateries. For tacos and authentic Mexican food, this is the holy grail. This NewRo spot satisfied in every way. Sure, it is simple in its decor and when you first walk in you might rethink it. Stay (and come back) for the food, service and prices. I enjoyed Chicken Tinga Enchiladas and my husband had the Carne Asada. The mole is legit! Tried the salsa verde which has a wonderful tomatillo tartness that I loved. All fresh so be patient as it is well worth it. As the neighborhood changes and new highrises are constructed I hope El Sabor de mi Tierra remains.

I’m sure everything here is good but the corn tortilla quesadillas are so great they’re all I order. I’m a world-class eater but can’t quite finish off the platter with three quesadillas! Res en adobo, chorizo, pastor are all consistently great filling options. Nice people, no frills decor.

The food and presentation is great, generous portions with fresh tortillas for every single item on the menu (or so it seems since my group of 10 ordered different things and all plates were made with fresh tortillas) . Although they were very busy the waitress did well keeping up with our requests and was very nice. The only thing I didn't like was the smell and upkeep of the restroom, it's true that it's definitely overdue for a renovation but besides that it didn't feel or smell clean. I enjoyed the food but management needs to give attention to the upkeep of the bathroom and even consider a renovation of it.

You walk in and it does not impress you. But the food was so delicious. Shrimp tacos were the best I have ever tried. The amount of food you get is incredible for the $$. I will definitely come back. Great food, great service.

What an unexpected amazing experience! The wife and I were in the area for business. We randomly popped in and ordered the popusas, tacos de camarones y burrito de res. Portions are very large and the taste was delicious! We live on Long Island but we will definitely take a trip there very soon. Our daughters love popusas and this would be their favorite place
