Savór Tapas Bar | Our Story
Small plates, big room, one table at a time
Savór is Amarillo's tapas and cocktail destination — intimate, urban, and designed for the kind of evening that stretches past the last plate. The ritual starts the moment you sit down.
Where the word "tapas" comes from
The word tapas means "to cover" — rooted in the Spanish custom of placing a small plate over a wine glass while socializing. At Savór, that tradition becomes the whole philosophy: order several, share them, and let the conversation do the rest.
A step outside Amarillo
The room was built to feel like somewhere else — a speakeasy-inflected urban bar with teal-lit walls, birdcage pendants, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Settle into a booth or pull up to the bar; either way, you're not in a hurry.
Rory's vision
Savór was founded by Rory — CEO of Forking Good Hospitality, Food Network Star finalist, and 2023 Texas Restaurant Association Rising Star. She's built the restaurants Amarillo didn't know it needed.
The team behind the kitchen
Corporate General Manager Mike Bartels and Executive Chef Albert Vargas run every service — from the paella to the escargot to the goat cheese stuffed peppadews guests keep ordering again and again.
