Waitress and atmosphere are good. I got chicken fajita, and it was cold… usually my fajitas sizzle on my plate, it was barely warm to touch. And was very bland and flavorless. Wouldn’t come back or recommend it to anyone :/

Another horrible experience. We had a large party. 39 minutes before we got drinks, 72 minutes until food arrive. Absolutely sucks. Yeah yeah«it’s busy». Was the excuse. It always is. Food was ok. Don’t order a quesadilla and expect it. It’s a funky tostada with cheese. Sucks.

I refused to come back here until a friend wanted to celebrate her birthday here. Fine… anything for a friend. Wow… I have to admit that the service has improved drastically. Maybe the manager does read the Unilocal review??? Unlike our last visit, the hostress did sat us on a comfortable booth away from the kitchen without asking. Shortly after chips and salsa was served, the waiter showed up lightening fast and gave us the ice tea that we ordered right away. For appetizer, we ordered small shrimp ceviche for less than $ 5. Even thought the portion was small, it was a good size to fill me up before our parties arrived. It has a bit too much tomatoes in it which makes it tardy… overall, I still enjoyed it. For my main entrée, I ordered fajitas for 1 with all beef(you can choose two different types of meat if you like chicken, shrimps or veggie) and double size of Spanish rice. The meat portion was very generous, but it was a little on the dry side. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it after mixing it with salsa to make up for the dryness. We told the waiter that it was our friend’s birthday. When we were done with our entrees, he gave us a plate of chips with scoops of ice-cream on each one of them. It was quite delicious. After we paid the bills, he still stopped by to give us refill for drinks and did not ignore us like the last waiter did. I’m extremely impressed with the improvement that they’ve made since my last visit.

Myself and 2 co-workers and another g/f had a holiday lunchon at Abuelos on 12/16/2015 and we had an awesome time. We stayed in the corner bar for hours. Food was yummy and the beer cold. We played the trivia game and that was fun too. Christopher Lopez the Proprietor is great, understanding patient and helpful. I lost my receipt for my expense reimbursement and he was nice enough to print one for me today. Go Chris you rock!

The only difference between Abuelos food and Taco Bell is the price. I ordered the bean & cheese burrito and there was no difference in taste or quality of ingredients from TB. Yuck!

Abuelos is our families favorite restaurant. The food is all good, but its their salsa that is unlike any other restaurants. I would buy it by the gallon if I could. I have no idea why they decided they needed to add 2 more, as the original is fantastic. Great service. Great atmosphere. Great food. Outstanding salsa.

Excellent service! Delicious food. Wonderful ambiance. Waitress did a fantastic job bringing food to our table and refilling water. The prices were right for the portion sizes. I will be back!

Horrible rude disgusting food ! The waitress was a total bit#h and the food was gross. I ordered fajitas and my tortillas were all crispy and tasted ancient. She kept forgetting to brings parts of my order.

Abuelo’s is a gem. I very much enjoyed my food, received great service, and enjoyed a wonderful atmosphere. Food — So I had two enchiladas… chicken with a queso sauce and a spinach and mushroom with a cream sauce. Both were deliciously spicy(because their sauces were on point!). For my sides, I chose the spinach casserole and their mashed potatoes. The sides were a delicious change of pace to the rice and beans that I usually get. My counterpart enjoyed the fajitas and the cervezarita, and the only thing he would have changed would have been more peppers with the fajitas(as it was mostly onion). Service — The service we received was prompt and attentive. Atmosphere — Dim lighting with a cool vibe and jovial feel.

Abuelos is one of my favorite Mexican places in town for the food! I’ve tried a few different dishes & my favorites are the Durango burrito, Chicken enchiladas, & the Spinach enchiladas. The papas con chile & rice are delicious sides which I opt to get every time(instead of the beans). They have lunch prices for these items which are very affordable & the portions are pretty large too. The dinner prices are only a little bit higher with slightly larger portions, still worth the cost. If you’re really hungry(or going to share a dish), then the fajita options are great because they’re really big & super tasty too! Their margaritas are strong and make for the perfect start to the meal. The salsas they offer with the chips are different than they typical ones. There’s a light green one that tastes sweet to start off with but definitely has a kick to it. They also have a regular mild salsa & a hotter one. I will agree with some of the other reviewers that the service is kind of off sometimes. We’ve gone during lunch time and they’ve tried to seat us in a corner table when there are much better tables open and it’s not even busy. I’ll always ask them to seat us in the middle section up-front now, which is sometimes received with a snarky comment but other times, no comment. I’ve been opting to get things to-go more often now for this reason.

Food was excellent but the service was sub par. When we first arrived someone came and gave us chips and salsa right away. They give you a variety of three different salsas. A mango sweet green, a spicy red and a mild red. All were very good and the chips were thin, crisp and super fresh. After we were seated it took our waitress about 10 minutes before she came over to greet us and ask us what cocktails we wanted. After we order our beverages and food on 2 occasions she tried taking my plate of food before I was finished eating without asking me and also tried taking my margarita glass that was half full. At least ask first… The food was great. Order the 2 enchiladas, 1 shredded beef with chili con queso and 1 cheese with chile con carne. The enchiladas were small portions but with the side of espinaca and papas con chile I was stuffed afterwards. Hope for better service next time.

I went in with a friend for lunch. As soon as we sat down, the server immediately came to greet us and asked for drink orders. Once we ordered our food, the meals got to our table extremely fast! We both got the chicken zucchini lunch plate, which was pretty good. Our server checked in on us often, and never let our drinks get more than half way empty before refilling them. In summary, great service, decent food, I would go back.

Let’s start with the chips & salsa!!! They were SO good!!! And lots of different types too! The green salsa was a little sweet, but it was really interesting! The queso is out of this world good! I had the chicken tacos– they were pretty good. I also had the potatoes that were recommended & they were delicious! Very different! We finished the meal with the flan they have– and it’s TASTY!!! We had the nicest server, which of course I can’t remember his name now– but he was awesome & brought us extra queso. I very much recommend this for dinner! Nice outdoor seating area as well!

Take one part Chuck E Cheese, one part Taco Bell with much poorer sauces and salsa, and one part cieling and lighting of a Vegas casino, and you have this place. Save yourselves. Loud, too bright, lhorrible décor and terrible food.

We visited Abuelo’s in January and just did a return visit. This time there were also six people eating. The best part of the whole meal is the Guacamole dip. That was fantastic and I would even go back just for that. I love the choices of their«papas» and also the charro beans. Service was great and again, we would definitely return when in the Chandler area.

Really really good Mexican/Tex Mex food! If you’re a vegetarian like me, I recommend the veggie fajitas… they come with plenty of vegetables and DELICIOUS tortillas. They also come with a cilantro lime rice that is nothing short of amazing. The first time we went here McKenzie was our server and she was awesome. She knew the menu, knew what a vegan was, and provided us with prompt, efficient service. The second time I went here the server(don’t remember his name) was just ok. He didn’t seem too knowledgeable with the menu and had to check on several items. I’ll definitely be back though as the veggie fajitas are really tasty!

Really pissed about the new sissy sized dip trays, they are the stupidest dishes I’ve ever seen at a restaurant. The chip doesn’t fit WTF were they thinking? Don’t even bring the dam chips if your going to be so cheap. I think they lost a table full of regulars! Saved by our excellent server, Will he brought us grownup sized bowls!

Wahrscheinlich wird man mit der Zeit kritischer. Aber dieses Restaurant ist dann doch Durchschnitt. Schmeckt, aber wird nicht in Erinnerung bleiben. Sieht von außen toll aus, innen kann der Eindruck nicht mehr ganz mithalten. Einheitslook. Die Karte auch. Aber es hat geschmeckt. Kann man also hingehen, macht nichts falsch aber das gilt für die anderen Restaurants in der Umgebung wohl auch.

I came here really hoping that I was going to get some good Mexican food while I was in Phoenix. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed. I think they spent more time decorating the place like it was a Greek Orgy room than focusing in on either the food or the service. I ordered enchiladas that came out gloppy and tasteless. My companion ordered vegetable fajitas where the grilled vegetables were either soggy, burned, or quite possibly both. Despite it being a quiet time there(3pm), the server appeared rarely as they seemed to be overreliant on their new table touch screens rather than actually paying attention to their customers. Quoting another reviewer, this place is very«cold and corporate» Considering the plethora or choices in Mexican places in Chandler, I’d suggest almost anywhere else, including taco stands that charge ¼ as much.
