La Casa de los Abuelos - Cuauhtémoc

Horrible experience in this resturant, the food was dry and tasteless and we didn't even receive what we ordered. After asking the staff to correct our order they through in some extra ingredients in our food making the food cold and stale. Furthermore, during the night after our dinner I received food poisoning and was forced to vomit during the entire next day. Do not go here if you can avoid it!

No alcohol, just very decent food in a nice clean restaurant. Aranchera beef was very tasty, and dinner for 2 adults was #23 with the tip. They took a credit card which was convenient for us.

Honestly. I thought it was a cute little place with balconies. True. But, you can't sit on the balcony if your party is over two people. Staff seemed nice enough. Pretty sure I met them all. We did not have the same server twice. Which may or may not have contributed to our food orders being incorrect and VERY late. There was not a single thing about this meal that I would recommend. Flautas Fair Fajita Fair Chicken Quesadilla also Fair. I made my own little snack from some black beans and moderately seasoned guac. Meh. Keep going. Don't stop. I think I saw a KFC across the street.

After doing some online research, we decided to walk to the neighborhood surrounding the metro stop for dinner and visit La Casa De Los Abuelos, a chain of restaurants in Mexico that offers a standardized menu and is reminiscent of a upscale Denny’s or Applebee’s. Entering the lobby with lots of seating for waiting customers, we were ushered to a booth in the middle of the large dining room for our meal. The waitress spoke a fair amount of English and with the menu likewise, we easily came to a decision about our order, starting with a large bowl of a standard Mexican soup, the Pozole Pollo, a tomato broth-based concoction that while very filling, it was pretty bland. Next up were our entrees, the a Pechuga Empanizada, breaded chicken breast, for Joanna and the salad Miriam for me. Both had more than adequate portion sizes and honestly, we again ordered way too much food to thoroughly enjoy the meal. The quality was good, but in hindsight, much like a meal at any large chain in America, there was nothing memorable about the meal. Leaving quite a bit of food on the plates, we did enjoy a decent flan and in the end were pleased overall with the meal, primarily because it was in a touristy location and came to just 473 Pesos $24.33). As they don’t serve alcohol, that helped to keep the tab down but still, for the amount of food we consumed, eating for under $25 is what anyone would call a bargain.

Amazing food love everything there. Specially the TORTAS !! Service was amazing, really recommend this place
