Ashley is an amazing server! Food was great too! Margaritas were awesome! Loved the ambiance! read more

This place has a beautiful layout for small and large parties. We had a group of 6 and were able to sit in the central area of the restaurant. The waitress was very polite but extremely busy serving everyone there. The management tended to making sure tables were cleaned by the bus boys and didn't notice that our table and the tables around us didn't get our food or refills for a while. I will say I do love their lunch options here where I ordered the chicken tortilla soup with the beef Reynosa salad at a reasonable price. This was a good meal. read more

Always good, great service & reliable. Some of their staff has been here for years Happy hour is legit!

FYI the menu offers Australian Sea Bass I have ordered this and I did not get the Sea bass some other type of fish covered in sauce went back with a picture of what Sea Bass looks like they admitted they do not have any fish that looks like Sea Bass still on the menu with a hefty price if you stick to traditional Mexican food they do a good job with that Oh and if you're a Member of there points club that seems to have vanished double check your app the points don't seem to get applied to your app Who knows? read more

Online reservation option was not shared when we called trying to reserve a table for 13. There was no effort to seat us after we arrived for an hour and part of our party had to leave. Worst experience with a restaurant and an apathetic hostess and management. Mediocre food at best. Will NEVER be back. read more

Abuelo's does a great job in Midland, Tx. We have lunch there very often so the staff knows us and goes out of their way to take great care of us. The food is great. The staff is knowledge and very professional. The facility is always Very Clean. Actually we went for dinner tonight and everything is the same. Abuelo's is a great place to take the family or for date night read more

Meal on Sunday afternoon at 2 pm. The food has been consistently well prepared. We come for the Australian sea bass with Guerrero sauce. More increasingly, the service and time to table has become unacceptable. Timetable after sitting: 3 minutes to server acknowledgement 8 minutes later drinks arrived Appetizers within 5 minutes 48 minutes after ordering, food arrived. First time having server come to our table since we got our drinks. 14 minutes waiting for our first refill and Tabasco sauce. Finally ready to eat my cold sea bass. Ask them to warm it in the microwave. We ordered medium well steak. After waiting this long, my son no longer wants to wait for a remake and will just be eating fast food on the way home. Unfortunately, the days of Abuelo's being a more upscale restaurant are behind us. The price per meal is still the same with small increases for certain items. The restaurant floor is horribly unkept even with the restaurant mostly empty. read more

I like the service and love the food i really recommend it the abuelos restaurant

Everything about our dinner service this evening was outstanding! The food was well seasoned, the sauces and chips were on point! My Margarita was very well made and Josiah's wait service was phenomenal! I also loved the seating and lighting. Too bad I am traveling, or I'd be here every week! Sorry I didn't take pics. Thank you, Abuelo's!! read more

Food and Service was great. The Queso Diablo . Nice atmosphere. Good place for date night. The original Margarita was good. read more

Great food and also great service!! Their fajitas were delicious and their salsa yummy too

Abuelo's in Midland is outstanding. We've been there and also ordered takeout - probably 15 times over the past few years. Never had a bad order or meal. The portions are very nice, prices are definitely reasonable, and the service has always been incredible. I love this place and it's our family's go to for excellent Mexican / TexMex food. The best in town. read more

Our server acted like he didn't want to be there. wouldn't even check on us for refills. just kept snickering with his coworker and looking back at us as if he was talking about us. And the food was worse than highschool cafeteria food. not worth $20 a plate. read more

The last time i was at abuelo's was 20 years ago at its original location. The old location had a more authentic mexican style. The staff and waiter was very nice. Service was okay, he forgot to bring us back more salsa. My enchilada plate was kinda salty, definitely not the best enchiladas in the world. Seems kinda busy, which is good. read more

Abuelo's Mexican Restaurant - Enchilada plate beef & chicken - Mexican Near Me - Midland, Texas

Went for lunch today and service and atmosphere was great. Our server, Brittany was wonderful. She was quick and on spot. Will return to this location again. read more

Service was poor, they got my order wrong: brought chicken fajitas instead of Angus beef I asked for. When I pointed it out they said they'll prepare a new one but brought the same plate with a few poorly prepared beef pieces and the few chicken pieces they forgot to remove. By that time the veggies were cold and soggy. Definitely not the sizzling fajitas you expect from any Mexican restaurant. Prices were very high for the quality read more

We had a large group of 10 people but our server handled it well. The food was great! We don't live in Midland but will come back here as often as possible. read more

Best food I have ever had it's to die for I would kill for this food. The service is great. The ambience looks amazing.

Abuelo's was a good restaurant however it wasn't fully up to par. The chips were not what I was expecting and I didn't like the fact that there was three different dips for the chips, but it seemed very crowded very unorganized and because I don't speak a whole lot of Spanish sadly, I had to have my boyfriend who does speak Spanish perfectly translate to the waitress. The decor of Abuelo's is beautiful, breathtaking, gorgeous but it is not what I would expect a beautiful pure Mexican restaurant to be. I expected more better authentic rice, Spanish rice, especially and the enchiladas were just not fully up to par. Other than that. It was a beautiful restaurant beautiful bathrooms very clean But again the food was just not what I was expecting. I expected more. read more

The BEST chimichanga I have ever eaten in my life this experience deserves at least 10 stars i also Enjoyed how beautiful the restaurant is for its decorations and amazing the customer service is TRY THIS OUT read more

One of the best Mexican restaurants in West Texas. Service and food fantastic. You need to try this one

CURBSIDE So I placed a curbside order for around 4pm, since they wouldn't be super busy around that time. The Curbside orders take 20 minutes which I think is quite good/typical compared to other restaurants. However, when I arrived I spent an additional 30 minutes waiting in the curbside spot, 10 of them were on hold with the store waiting for them to answer. I ended up going inside- the manager said they would look into it, and of course the order was already ready, just no one taking it out to me. I'm glad I went inside to get it, the curbside orders seem very neglected, and the hostess just kept transferring my call around but no one was helping or answering. Disappointed we spent over $100 on this order just for it to go cold and soggy. read more

Service was excellent, however, towards the middle of our meal we couldn't help but hear a manager berating an employee very loudly. As she waddled by our table, we clearly heard her beligerently swearing. Then she sat at a table, and continued with ugly words not suitable for that type of environment. At that moment we understood why the server was so irate. It made us very uncomfortable. Does this happen often at this establishment? If so, I will not longer suggest as a great restaurant to visit. read more

We had dinner here on a Sunday night. We were seated quickly and the waitress was really attentive the entire meal asking us if we needed anything and refilling waters. We liked the complimentary chips and salsa and trio of little salsas that came out with our drinks. My only complaint was the salsas were all very thin and so very hard to eat without making a mess. Both our meals were out super fast on hot plates and tasted great. Really nice interior dining area, very open and bright. The menu had calorie counts next to each item, and some items offered to let you swap corn or flour tortillas for Lettuce wraps. Really nice that they had a vegetarian menu and a gluten free menu page as well! You could definitely make some health conscious choices here if you were counting calories or had dietary restrictions. read more

ABUELO's ruined my Mother's Day Meal. I paid almost $80 for a cold meal and not everything cooked. we had 3 meals delivered by Door Dash, but was only given 1 bag of chips and 3 dinky salsa. supposed to get chips and salsa with each meal so the site states. i ordered a shredded beef enchiladas and a cheese enchilada, there was less than 1/4 beef in the enchiladas closer to only 1 bite of beef and the cheese was hard and congealed, not even melted. my sons shredded beef Durango burrito had no meat in it either. what a let down. Will never eat here or get it to go, ever again. made my Mother's Day terrible! and I'm still hungry because I couldn't eat it! thanks Abuelos. read more

Very good food. The service was also great! The food selection has a great variety. Very clean and nice environment. read more

Our waitress, though I didn't catch her name, was fabulous..which is so rare today! I will definitely pay attention in the future. read more

The food was excellent. It's the first time I've ever had FRESH pico de gallo. In most restaurants it's old and withered. The chicken fajitas were excellent much better flavor and quality than other restaurants. Everything was good and our server, a man, was first class. Excellent all the way around. Wish I lived near by! read more

Oh man I love the food here. I ate too much, again. My wife and I go crazy on the chips.

You can always tell when you enter a well run restaurant. A typical Saturday night at an Abuelos, at least where I live, is always walking into a loud crowd of hungry, waiting people. The Midland restaurant was completely different. The entry was quiet and inviting. The staff that took our name was pleasant , professional, and very clear about the waiting list. It was interesting to watch as we waited for our table. They maintained that pleasant atmosphere throughout the Saturday evening crowds. We had a text message that kept us updated about the wait and summoned us when our table was ready. Wonderful communication! The professionalism continued with a very capable waitress and support staff. The food was great and arrived quickly. I might add that our party included three children under 4 years old. That is always a challenging situation and it was handled beautifully. Great experience! read more

Stopped in here for supper and it was a delightful experience! Chips and queso dip were so good and cheesy! I had the shredded chicken quesadilla that came with rice and it was delicious! I left sooooooo full! My fiance had the fajitas and loved it as well! Great atmosphere as well! Definitely stop in read more

I like Abuelo's but this evening was slow. The hostess was rather indifferent, and told us it would be 45 minutes, even though there appeared to be plenty of open tables. We elected to sit in the bar (5 in our party). Chips and salsa arrived quickly along without drinks. The waitress kept us in chips, but not salsa. We ordered, but it took awhile for our meals to arrive. We ordered four plates of enchilada's and one meal of fajitas. Four of us had refritos and rice, one had papas and charro. The meals were very tasty as we quietly enjoyed our meals. We also had a couple of sangria swirls. We will be back, but we realize Abuelo's is popular and busy, but... read more

Why are they using Terriaitki sauce on Fajitas?!?!? Warn us next time. WTF. The flavors don't blend. If I wanted Chineses food I would go elsewhere. read more

Ugh. Visiting Midland on business and trying to find a good Mexican restaurant. Tip: there are none! Took a chance on this place based on overall reviews. The steak fajitas are nasty. Small portions. Low quality beef that looked old. This is a major red flag. Invest in good quality beef and people will come back. The guacamole in my Dip sampler was way too salty. The margarita (El Jefe) is weak and overpriced. I should have known when I could not find one Mexican eating here. Just white folks. Blah - cross this place off. Midland, who hurt you? read more

Always love this place. Rye best is the habanero salsa. My go to is the Quesadilla El Horno. I grew up in west texas and missed Abuelo's until it came to Houston. read more

It is disappointing that reservations can only be made for parties of 10 or more. You should consider allowing larger parties. Charge a fee if you must. Allow extended families to enjoy your premise as well. read more

Service was awesome. Great waiter. The restaurant is amazing. The low stars was for the food. It is very expensive for average TexMex. It's to pricey for me so I won't be going there again read more

My co-worker wanted to take me to this place as a Texas native. I was told this was a Texan franchise, but they apparently have locations outside of the state too. There was a long wait for a table, but we managed to snag seats at the bar. The bartender/bar service was actually pretty good given how busy they were. The food was decent. I wasn't blown away, but at least everything seemed fresh and the shrimp on my salad was very tasty. I did ask for no cheese and the request was ignored, but my server was quick to see that and apologize and offered to replaced it. However, since we waited longer than I expected for the food I just went with it as-is. They also forgot to give me dressing the first time. read more
