La Sabrosa Grocery & Restaurant Middleburg — Restaurant in Fruit Cove

Love this place! New residents to the area & having grown up in Los Angeles, it's been slim pickings in terms of good, truly authentic Mexican/Latin food from "back home." We had resigned that we probably would never find that gem bc Florida is not SoCal after all. However, we finally found it here at La Sabrosa!

This is your best option if you're craving "Mexican" style tacos and don't feel like making them or going out to a sit down restaurant. I came for the food, specifically the tacos.

The lady working was very sweet and friendly. They have a spicy sauce which tastes habeñero based but I could be wrong. Anyway, great place,...
