Abuelo's Mexican - Roanoke

Excellent service and delicious food and drinks! My husband and I come here often. Yesterday, our waiter was Dustin, who was very attentive and courteous. I ordered a Mango Cerveza Rita and the Chicken Grande Burrito. Both were very good. The food portion was generous for the price and more than I could eat. We love their chips and variety of salsas. Always a pleasurable experience at Abuelo’s.

A group of us ate there recently and I know my husband and I enjoyed it. To us it's worth the drive to eat there. I do wish we could get one in Lynchburg! It's my favorite Mexican restaurant!! We first ate in the one in Chesapeake at Greenbrier Mall. We tried to go when we were in town visiting family. We like the chips and salsa and I especially like their Salsa Blanco. When you first opened it was always brought out to the table. Now I have to request it. The other thing we preferred was the old way of bringing out the salsa in larger deeper bowls of the hot and milder salsa. I do not like these rectangular, smaller dishes. There's never enough and sometimes when the place is busy it takes a while to get more salsa and chips. I wish you would go back to the deeper, larger bowls. The Salsa Blanco was brought out in the larger bowl. Not a fan of the sweet green salsa, although our daughter seemed to like it. My husband really likes the steak and shrimp fajitas and sometimes he gets the shredded beef tacos. I enjoy your enchiladas and think yours are the best. Better than any of the ones I have had in any other Mexican restaurant. I also like the spinach casserole dish. The only thing that I have had I didn't like is your warm cheese dip. Too me it was practically tasteless. (I was surprised my son-in-law liked it. I think your recipe needs tweaking. So I have never ordered it again. Sometimes some waiters and waitresses are better than others. But that can happen anywhere. Most of the time they have been good. Sure wish you would open one in Lynchburg, Va. It needs an upscale Mexican restaurant! With so many colleges around and the way it is growing I think it would do well.

We have been here many times and have always had great food and service. Today was my birthday and Dustin was an exceptional server. I haven't had a sopapilla since we left Arizona and this was better than a birthday cake. Thank you Abuelo's for making my birthday extra special!

It’s always wonderful but for some reason it was exceptionally delicious this time. We drive from Radford to go here. It’s my husbands favorite place to eat.

5 stars indeed! Absolutely the most fresh best Mexican food I've had in quite a long time. As new residents of Roanoke... damn excited to find my new favorite restaurant to get my Salsa Guacamole ON!!!!
