This is not your typical Mexican fare, very sophisticated menu.... choices all excellently prepared and presented. The prices reflect the gourmet quality of the food. The room is lovely and the entire dining experience, from service to food to atmosphere is something special. We've been there twice and hope to return soon. More

Read the previous reviews and was daunted...boy were they wrong! Had the halibut tacos - so delish! Wine selection was wonderful. Wait staff very helpful and friendly! Portion size was perfect - who wants to leave overstuffed ala Cheesecake Factory? I couldn't even finish my tacos! Flan for dessert - like no other flan I've had (even in Mexico.) It... More

Sabor is not your usual, everyday Mexican Restaurant. Located at the The Lakes in Thousand Oaks, Sabor is more upscale both in appearance and menu. The atmosphere is a little more formal and would be great for a date or business lunch but you can feel equally comfortable showing up in your favorite jeans for an enjoyable lunch with friends....

The decor of the restaurant is elegant according to some people. I found it a bit over the top, but that's coming from someone who prefers simplicity. The service is quick and attentive. The waiter would ask on a consistent basis if we needed anything without being overly bothersome. Sabor Cocina Mexicana is a high end Mexican Restaurant in Thousand... More

We had lunch at Sabor today and found that it lived up to the reviews. We've been searching for a good mexican restaurant for several months and have had no luck in the Simi/T.O. area until now. We had the chicken enchiladas and beef tacos and both were very good. We also had the chocolate creme brulee and while much... More

Not your traditional Mexican restaurant. The "good" is that the decor is fresh, contemporary and upscale compared to most Mexican restaurants. The "bad" is that the food portions are tiny and the prices are double or triple what they should be. If you're in the mood for Mexican food, but aren't very hungry and money isn't an issue, Sabor may... More

Sabor has wonderful upscale Mexican food. The flavors and portions are perfect. The quality of ingredients used were perfect. I had the chicken tacos on a unique jicima shell. It was a perfect lighter meal that left me full but didn't sit at the bottom of my stomach like traditional Mexican. The tres leche cake had an original spin topped... More
