    Whew, let me tell y'all!!! we were just out running errands and decided to try this spot for the…read morefirst time, and baby, we were not ready! It didn't look busy from the outside, but once we stepped in, it was clear folks knew what they were doing. There's plenty of parking, and the location is super easy to get to. Me and the kids came around lunchtime, and even though we'd never been, it felt familiar and welcoming, like we'd been there before. We were greeted and seated quickly, and our server came over within minutes to take our order. Now listen, one of my kids is picky picky, but I told her this summer we're trying new things to stretch those taste buds! We played it safe with our food choices, not knowing what to expect. Everything came out fresh in about 15 minutes, and babyyyy, that first bite had us all looking at each other like wait a minute. The food was seasoned, hot, and just hit right. We will definitely be coming back because this place? A whole vibe and a whole meal! We are definitely going to be frequent eaters to Abuelos!!

He even brought her flan with a candle on the house for her birthday We started with bacon wrapped shrimp served on a cheesy pepper. So good. I had an enchilada/taco combo and my friend had 3 enchiladas. Both main dishes were very tasty and I really liked my pinot grigio (o rarely do) and she enjoyed her margarita. It was a very pleasant experience

    Disclaimer: this review is for the lunch buffet only…read more I went with my family to try the $18.49 all you can eat lunch buffet. This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.
