What Carlee Barrows doesn't like about Abelardo's Mexican Fresh:
Really disappointed in this location. The kids meals weren't rang up correctly and they overcharged us. I didn't mind that part but the food was just awful. My kids fries were not cooked fully and just soggy and cold. My kids cheese enchiladas were bad too. The cheese wasn't even melted, just cold cheese in a hard tortilla. My two cheese enchiladas were the same, just cold cheese in a tortilla with sauce. The service... View all feedback. What Madonna Hilpert likes about Abelardo's Mexican Fresh:
Ordered from Door Dash for lunch. Beef chimichanga with rice and beans.Took about 30 minutes for delivery yet good was still hot.Included 2 kinds of salsa/sauce.

The restaurant offers generous portion sizes at a good value, but the quality of steak has declined noticeably since a change in ownership. Some customers have complained of tough, fatty meat. Missing items in delivery orders have been a recurring issue, with unfulfilled promises of replacements. Despite these setbacks, the establishment is praised for its friendly staff, tasty nachos, large breakfast burritos, and affordable Taco Tuesday deal. Regulars appreciate the reliable late-night service, making it a go-to spot for satisfying cravings anytime. Albalardos may not be perfect, but it has remained a beloved staple for many loyal patrons.
