Absolutely delicious food. I definitely recommend it. Had the best waitress ever. Big shout out to Bambi for the great service. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Beautifully decorated. Amazing place all around!!

Well prepared dishes. Flavorful & presented with flare. Not a good trade as regards amount paid and amount received in exchange. The proportions were small. Very first time we ever left a Mexican restaurant hungry, especially after paying that much.

Pretty standard American Mexican food and Tex-Mex chow in a beautifully done up place. Service is spot-on, they have a delicious hot sauce, and the portions are generous. You'll pay a price premium over that authentic hole-in-the-wall down the road, but this is the better place to take your hot date.

One word: delicioso! Abuelo’s is great. The chef, Luis Sanchez’s, photo is on the menu and he says cooking is his passion and his life. It is obvious. There is plenty to choose from on the menu and everything I had was fantastic.
Their chips and salsa aren’t just regular. You actually get three different salsas. I also ordered a side of Queso Diablo. Soooo good. It’s the cheese sauce with beef, peppers, and chiles. My shrimp tacos were tasty.
My server was efficient and nice enough. The music was really good, too. I even Shazam’d a song.
I highly recommend Abuelo’s!

This place has a great ambiance and the food is always fresh and hot! Usually have good service. Awesome drinks! Manager was nice. Three important reasons for the two stars: 1. Sauces are watery 2. The chips are not flavorful by themselves. 3. They don't have Queso blanco anymore!

Delicious food and cocktails made with quality booze. The mashed potato side dish is unique and highly recommended if you come here.
