While guests enjoy the food, some mention that the small kitchen can lead to slight delays during peak hours, especially on busy weekends. A few patrons express a desire for more menu variety or special dishes beyond the traditional offerings. Street parking can be challenging at busier times, so arriving early or planning around peak hours often helps.

Lovely casual spot. The food was hearty and flavorful, the portions were legit, and the colors were enchanting. The lady serving was a sweetie and welcoming. The outside seating was relaxing, under a large tree across from a view of a beautiful old church. Parking was on the street, but it was a weeknight so it was easy. Thanks for the dinner!

We really enjoyed our dinner here! We sat outside, which was great since they had umbrellas. Great guacamole, tacos and burritos. We enjoyed the spicy salsa and the birria tacos. The server was great, really friendly and really quick to serve us. Recommend if you are in the area!

Absolutely THE BEST most authentic, fresh Mexican food I have ever eaten. Honestly, I guess I had never eaten authentic Mexican food before this meal!! Two sweet ladies in the small open kitchen cooking the most delicious food I’ve ever eaten.

After visiting Olana State Historic Site a group of six went to El Sabor for a late lunch. It was our first time there. We looked it up on Google Maps but didn’t know anything else about it. It’s a very casual place. A bunch of tables for four people and a counter where you go to get takeout. We pulled a table away from the wall so all six would fit at the table. If there were more free tables we would have pulled two tables together to give us more room for everything we ordered. There was a regular menu and a menu for the specials. Both have lots of items on it. Three people ordered Enchiladas Oaxaca which were four fried tortillas filled with chicken and also came with a choice of a side of Steak or Pork. Our friends ordered Steak which was one large thinly cut piece of steak. It also came with rice and beans. My wife and I shared The veggie tacos and the red cecina which was marinated pork. Also ordered was a Burrito filled with rice beans and she chose chicken which came with two sauces. For the table we ordered the Huaraches with chorizo meal as an appetizer. Most enjoyed their meals. My wife and I loved our meal. It’s not tex-mex which some people expect when going to a Mexican restaurant. It’s traditional Oaxacan food. We debated if I should give it a 4 or 5 star and concluded it’s exactly what it says it is and the food was delicious but might not be to everyone's taste.

I was so happy to find such lovely food in Hudson! I ate here twice! The red cesina tacos were incredible, as was the guacamole starter (molcajete? Avocado was super fresh and good). The tostadas were great too. Highly recommended!
