For over 10 years, Sabor Sabor has brought the true taste of Mexico to the heart of Rotterdam. Founded by Liz Derflingher, born and raised in Mexico City, our restaurant serves traditional Mexican cuisine prepared exactly as it’s made in Mexican homes: with passion, authenticity, and the finest ingredients.
What makes us truly authentic? Our entire team consists of Mexican and Latin American chefs and staff who bring generations of culinary expertise from their home countries. We prepare handmade tortillas fresh daily, import essential ingredients directly from Mexico, and follow traditional recipes passed down through families.
Sabor Sabor delivers an experience that transports you straight to Mexico City without leaving Rotterdam Centrum.
About us
Over a Decade of Authentic Mexican Tradition Founded by Liz Derflingher from Mexico City, Sabor Sabor was born from a simple mission: share the real flavors of Mexican home cooking with the Netherlands. For over 10 years, we’ve stayed true to that vision, never compromising on authenticity or quality.
A Truly Mexican Team Our kitchen and service staff are actually from Mexico and Latin America, preparing dishes using techniques they learned from their grandmothers. When you dine with us, you’re experiencing genuine Mexican hospitality from people who grew up with these flavors and traditions.
Traditional Ingredients, No Shortcuts We import key ingredients directly from Mexico, from our specific chile varieties to authentic Mexican chocolate for our mole. Our tortillas are made by hand every morning, our salsas are prepared fresh daily, and we never take shortcuts when it comes to authentic taste.
Versatile for Every Occasion Intimate dinners, group celebrations, professional catering for events up to 350 people, or authentic takeout at home. We bring Mexican flavors to every moment of your life.
