What a great experience! The restaurant is kind of small inside and it gets pretty busy so be ready to wait a few minutes at least. The food was amazing though and worth the wait. The menudo had great flavor and the tortillas a mano were a plus. The tamale had great texture and so much cheese and chile. One of my new favorite breakfast spots. read more

This place should have 5 stars, our second time visiting and.... Wow the service and food are amazing and always good. My husband and I had a molcajete with corn tortillas. That molcajete feeds probably 3-4 people. The tortillas were handmade.the salsas are the best. We will definitely be eating here again. For Wednesday' morning it was pretty busy which tells you the food is good read more

Nice little resteraunt serving good Mexican food at great prices! Parking:Limited parking behind the resteraunt and limited street parking so be aware of that. Wait time:I came here on a Sunday afternoon. Our wait time was about 40 minutes. While we waited, they had a canopy set outside to provide us shade and they gave us complimentary samples of their drinks. Food/service:Once inside we were attended to right away. Our food came in relatively quick too! They sold out of tamales de al pastor so I'm guessing they're good. We ordered champurrado with concha 10/10. Chilaquiles de birria 10/10 Memelas de asada 8/10 Tamales de rajas con queso 7/10 Tostada de cuernitos 7/10 Bistec a la mexicana 7/10 Overall a good experience with service, and good food at good prices! read more

I have been here more times than I care to admit and will continue to come back. It's so good. Their green salsa is amazing, their habanero one is spicy and delicious. I have enjoyed everything I have tried and a tamal ahogado is a must. It's a delicious tamal covered in salsa of your choice with sour cream and cheese. read more

I had to take a star out because of the extra charges WITHOUT notice! Be aware they charge for (regular) coffee refills and for using your card to pay. The place its self is a cute very small area to sit.it is pretty crowded (not referring to amount of people there). Their food was cold, but tasted ok. read more

Food is Great . Customer service Is really terrible . Many times that I come the workers seem to be having a bad attitude. They get upset for everything . ( example - they get upset for asking extra napkins , asking for extra sauce to accommodate my meal . Management needs to talk to employees or hire better people . I've been here more than 10 times I kid you not and every single time the servers ( females in particular) have bad attitude. Customer service doesn't mean anything to them . There is a guy server that is top notch . Respectful and accommodating. read more

Cute spot! Fun Halloween decor. Parking is rough! We had to get creative. The place was packed at 1:30 on a Wednesday but our wait was only maybe 10 mins. The service was not great but they were fast. Food came out quickly. we both ordered the Chilaquiles birria. I had verde my coworker had rojo. Presentation is cool, and they bring cream to the table and add it if you want. Taste was delicious. The black beans under the chilaquiles were really good. More onion on top would have been good, even better some pickled onion would be amazing. We also shared a blueberry tamal. It was so good! moist, not overly sweet. Prices were pretty good. I would go back for sure. read more

This place has a cute atmosphere, but unfortunately, the experience falls short. The café de olla had an unexpected licorice flavor, almost like an absinthe aftertaste, which was off-putting. I ordered the taquitos de papa, and they were served in a plastic container that looked like it was reused from a takeout order. All the toppings, sauce, sour cream, and lettuce, were sitting at the bottom, leaving the second taquito soggy and unappetizing after the first bite. I couldn't even finish it. The chorizo con papa was average at best, though at least it was served on a real plate. My suggestion: if your concha is plated, all dishes should be plated. Presentation matters, and it would elevate the entire dining experience. read more

La Casa De La Abuela - Taquitos serves in a to-go container... odd - Mexican Near Me - South Gate, California

What we ordered: Two regular coffees,Chilaquiles con huevo,Bean and cheese sopes and French toast The food took a bit longer than expected, about 20 minutes, so we had to check in. Service was okay, we had to ask for utensils as well. The chilaquiles had really good flavor--my mom was impressed! The red sauce wasn't too overpowering like at some other places. I didn't really like the sopes, they tasted bland. Be aware they are not traditional French toast so don't expect the fluffy ones you're used to. There's parking in the back, but it's shared with other businesses, so it can be a little tricky to find a spot. Let me know if you want any more tweaks! read more

Went on a Sunday morning around 10am and wait time was about an hour, it was packed and place is very small. Limited seating. We decided to wait, food was alright I ordered the chilaquiles con huevo in mole, they were okay. I did get a bad stomach ache after but I'm not sure why. Service was shit, waitresses look like they're annoyed and once we were done eating we felt like we were being rushed out of our table. Wouldn't come here again honestly. read more

Great food location is small but super cute. Big portions and great flavors will come back. Only reason I gave 4 star the menu on the sope trio is very confusing it's says trio but you have to buy each sope separately so it's not a trio and we asked the waitress over and over is this the price for 3 sopes and she said yes. read more

Updated review: I was impressed by the restaurants receptivity to feedback from other reviews. Some people (including myself) noted the long wait times, layout of the restaurant that caused some crowding from folks waiting, and being exposed to sun while waiting. There was still a bit of a wait but they were more accurate with their wait time and also addressed the aforementioned things. I was able to try some more dishes and all were delicious. The mole was a little too sweet for me, but they do let you know ahead of time to expect a sweeter sauce because it's a regional recipe read more

This place was overall ok. I had high expectations and some were met, others weren't. It is one of those restaurants where it would be worth coming at least once to get some decent Mexican breakfast. I got the chilaquiles and they were nothing to rave about, just average food for a good price. Cafe de olla is what they are known for but get there early because they will sell out by like 10am. Tamales were good, the blueberry one is worth trying if you like sweet tamales. Service was good too, the servers were giving Tia energy. Parking is very limited read more

It shocks me how many negative reviews there are. My family and I have came multiple times and we have never had any issues.

Awful experience!!!! I was there to celebrate my birthday and ended leaving after waiting over an hour. Initially they said its a 40 minutes wait, but kept letting others that arrived after us in instead of making space for our group. After checking for the 3rd time, noticed that they let a group of 4 in and a table next to them for 2 was vacant where they should of given it to us, so at that point we left. Very disappointed in this place!!!! They continued to lie by telling us we were next. Waitress at checking had an attitude. read more

Not my favorite... the waitress charged me an extra taco and then brought me different tacos from what I ordered. I like the little vibe of the place but driving all the way out there I don't think I'd do that again read more

We were there for the grand opening and thought their food was amazing. So yesterday we drove an hour and a half and were very much looking forward to eating there. Upon our arrival, they told us they were closed for three hours, but then I told the server that we had come from far, she was kind enough to let us sit down and have our meal and the food was amazing. But I'm just blown away and grateful that the waitress made an exception for us to sit and eat. The environment and happiness of the employees was infectious. Everyone was impeccable. The server had left by the end of our meal so we didn't get to express our gratitude towards her. The food was just so good!! Out of this world. We'll be back soon!! read more

Came here for my mom's birthday and was really disappointed. The food was eh. The service was excellent. The ambiance did not feel like my abuela's house. The music was too loud for my preference. The cafe de Olla was alright but was missing something maybe canela. I ordered the quesa birria tacos with consome. The consome was salty. The quesa birria tacos were good. But that throws off the whole dish. The best part of that combo should be the consome. I then ordered a flan for my to celebrate my mothers birthday. The staff came over to sing but the song was in English. My mother does not speak English. I knew coming here would be either a hit or miss. Unfortunately it was a miss for me. read more

This restaurant is so good. I do not understand why it has 3 stars instead of 5. Yes if you go on busy days there is a long wait time but that is in any other restaurant that is popular. To me they deserve 5 stars because the food is delicious and the service is great. I have been there 2 times and both times we had a great service. First time we did wait like 40 minutes but it was so worth it. Another time we only had to wait 10 minutes. The coffee is good and perfect pair with the pan dulce. We also tried the tamales and they were delicious. We have tried the chilaquiles for breakfast and the birria plate with hand made tortillas and OMG! I am severing the food just thinking about it again. This is a great place to eat definitely not for big groups unless you are willing to wait because it is a small restaurant but everything inside is beautiful. I hope my review helps their stairs go up I really do not think is fair they have low stairs. read more

Horrible service!!!! We arrived and there was no one ahead of us. The lady kept telling us that they were cleaning a table for us for over 30 minutes. During that time she kept seating people that were arriving after us. We had a party of 6, the other parties had 4 and even 5. At least 8 parties got seated that arrived after us. I kept going in to check and at one point there was a large table and she said they were going to clean for us. When I checked again, they had sat other people and said they were going to wait for other people from another table to leave. We were taking my elderly mom for breakfast and had her out in the cold all that time. So dis considerate, disrespectful , and unprofessional! We ended up going to cocina La Leona. Amazing service and food! Will never return to La casa de la abuela! read more

YOU NEED TO BUY CHIPS!!! I bought the menudo and it was ok. broth was good. a couple pieces tasted off. The waiter did not even thank me for coming. I will not be returnin. read more

Do not come here if you want food with flavor and to be seated on time. Came here with my family and was told it was a 30 minute wait time, but instead we had to wait in the scorching sun and were seated almost an hour after. We were seated at a table that was not leveled, with the slightest touch the table would wobble. The area was crowded and they were blasting an edm happy birthday song when we got in. I ordered an horchata that was not sweet enough and a with a bitter aftertaste. I also ordered half green/ half red chilaquiles with an egg and asada. The chilaquiles were soggy and lacking flavor/spice, although the waitress told us the red were spicy (tasted like tomato sauce). My egg was undercooked (ordered it over medium and it was over easy), and the portion of meat was minimal (not enough to be charging $6 extra for it). A family member ordered the menudo and it was bland, lacking of that authentic menudo flavor. I looked over to the side and the table next to us also left their chilaquiles and menudo half full, surely they were disappointed with the lack of flavor. I saw many negative reviews before going and gave them the benefit of the doubt, but was sadly disappointed. They should focus on seasoning their food more. Do not recommend. read more

Food is okay, not the best. The service is poor, they were discriminating a blind man. A family offered to pay for this blind man's food who looked in need and the waitress said let me ask management to see if they allow him to eat here as I am not sure if we allow people like him sit or be in here. We're talking about another human here!! Ultimately they allowed him to eat and the family paid for his food but this is not the place to eat. Discriminating, poor service!! read more

Saturday brunch Prepare to speak Spanish or communication will be tough. Prepare to wait a long time; the place was packed! The food is good, the drinks suck. Pros: -Chilaquiles with birria, egg ,and red sauce were very good -3 leches pancakes were a mix between a crepe and a pancake. Cons: -Parking lot was full and street parking was hard to find -Wait time was almost an hour -Neighborhood is on the ghetto side -No AC, just fans -No Coke, Pepsi in a can -Cafe de olla was too sweet I wouldn't make the drive here again. read more

Heard the hype about this restaurant and had to come check it out, our first time here. I must note, I will always be critical of mexican food, as I will always compare it to my mother's but, I will do my best to be fair. We ordered a pork tamale, it was OK. I ordered one enchilada with extra salsa and a flour tortilla. Unfortunately, the enchilada was not fresh, tasted and looked like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while. The salsa for the enchilada was extra spicy as they added slices of jalapeños. Sadly, my one flower tortilla was burnt - not good at all!!! I then ordered a corn tortilla, which was much better. Hubby ordered bierria tacos, the consume was greasy and the tacos lacked flavor. The Horchata was good. Our waiter Edwin was excellent and took great care of us! I'm sad to say the restaurant name is deceiving as it doesn't feel like "abuelita" was in the kitchen cooking. The restaurant is small and cute with limited parking in the back and street parking available. read more
