Cafe Sazon

High quality comfort food that just hits every time. Filling, rich, and has that special homemade feeling of care. Cool, calm, and pleasant environment, at least for lunch. Menu selection is expansive and service is very helpful. Only criticism is that they were a bit too expensive than your common Mexican restaurant (yes I realize this isn’t Mexican, just a simple comparison). Would still love to come back!

Friendly environment and staff. The food is great. Drink selection is not hugh buy it is good. This is not an upscale and super fancy restaurant but a good place to get food. Or a quick bite to eat and a great alternative to fast food. The breakfast meals are the greatest choices. The cuisine is Mexican/Salvadoran/Colombian. The price is okay. This is a great place to get a meal if your passing by or visiting town.

Café Sazón is an institution, a staple, a second home! The owner is just as incredible as the baked goods, coffee, and empanadas. Located off of Columbia Pike, this cafe offers a wide selection of bakery sweets and breads, sandwiches, delicious main course items like carne asada, pupusas, Bolivian cuisine favorites, and delicious smoothies and shakes. Ample seating inside, ample parking out front, and friendly service make this cafe the regular meeting spot for our Arlington Dem Latino Caucus meetings. It is the one place we can always agree on!

This place is soooooo good! I ordered the sampler and a chicken pupusa. You can hear the chefs making the tortillas and pupusas in the back, so you know it’s authentic (and good)! Fried plantains and fried yucca ✨chef’s kiss✨ I went on a Friday night and there were only 3-4 people in the dining area. This place is too good to not be busy every night!!

Man, I had really high hopes for this place. My spouse decided to treat me, his mother and sister in law to brunch along with 3 other family members. We called the day before for a reservation because of Mother's day. Well... after we placed our order, it took 20 minutes to get drinks, and over an hour to get our food. We waited patiently but every single other person got their orders before us and even people coming in placing to go orders were getting theirs first. Then we overheard one of the women admitted they forgot about us. Well that sucked. Ultimately my mother in law was almost late to work because after an hour and a half we had only just gotten our food. The food was okay, but I'd sooner go to any other spot. Maybe they should have just stayed a bakery? I'm disappointed because he chose this spot after seeing it featured on WETA and to be honest it really did look promising. Won't be back.
