Abuela's Tacos Latin Restaurant Miami Beach

Found this place late night while walking on Miami streets. We ordered Baja fish tacos and they were really good! The sauces were great too! There's a bar inside too. The service was a bit slow but I guess they were busy! However, the tacos were overpriced! The staff was very friendly!

We were really hungry after arriving. We shared three different tacos and all were good. The pork ones were tastier.

I always love authentic tacos and this place delivered. It was right across the street from our AirBnb so we thought we'd try it. It was a good choice. The food was very good. Tasted fairly close to authentic. We started with the steak nachos. They were delicious! They had cheese, jalapeños, steak, sour cream, and guacamole. They were loaded and not lacking in the toppings department. There was plenty for 4 of us to share. My girlfriend and I split the birria tacos and they were worth every penny. The flavor of the birria itself was top notch and the sauce to dip in was the real treat. There were 3 tacos, rice and beans on the plate. Our table also ordered Al pastor tacos and fish tacos. They said that they were very flavorful. The service was great. Our waiter got us drinks quickly and food out nearly as fast. He stopped by many times to check on us and fill waters. He made for an awesome overall experience. The ambiance transports you to a Hispanic household. It felt very homey inside and had decorations all over the place. I'm sure it gets very lively at night time since it's close to ocean drive. Overall this was a great lunch spot. I'd visit again the next time I visit South Beach.

TLDR: Osvaldo is the GOAT!!Food/Drinks: 4/5Immediately, we were given glasses of water and chips and salsa and another spicy sauce as an appetizer to start. We ordered the birria tacos and they lived up to the hype! Absolutely mouthwatering and filled with flavor. I literally scarfed mine down in 5 minutes. They are pretty hefty so with the chips and drinks you shouldn't be left hungry.We got a pitcher of Strawberry Margarita to share between 2 people and not going to lie it was kind of weak but it tasted good! Pros here theeService: 10/5Okay everyone here was EXTREMELY kind from the moment we walked in! Our server, Osvaldo came in clutch with the recommendations and always brought us everything we needed! Hands down one of the best servers I've ever had out at a restaurant. I was out with my partner and they offered to take a picture of us together which was SO sweet! We were in a rush and our food came out quickly. He also got us to go materials for whatever we didn't finish. You thought it couldn't get better than that? Well it did!! Then, he brought use free tequila shots on the house!! We felt like we were VIP at this restaurant!Vibe: 5/5We first saw this restaurant during the day walking along Collins Ave and its looked lit at 2 pm mid day and was playing good music. We made a mental note to return and glad we did! We sat outside the restaurant which was perfect for people watching as you're right on the sidewalk! We went during the evening but the heat never sleeps. They do have fans outside so you won't be too hot. Overall, the vibe is equipped with cute neon lights, bright colors, good music, and good vibes to top it off!I've told all my friends that are visitING Miami that they need to eat here at least once! Make sure you ask for Osvaldo!! He's the absolute best! :)

Food - 4/5Service- 2/5Ambience- 4/5 We're hoping it is just a server having a rough night because we could feel the potential of this place and why it would normally get 5/5. We sat down, got our drinks and gave our appetizer and waited 12 minutes to get our appetizer then finished and waved down our waitress to give our order. It would have been ideal to sped things up. We were outside in the dark and cold. We are used to having chip and salsa but we didn't understand that it wasn't brought out maybe language barrier? Then waited more. It was TOO LONG to sit and wait. We came to eat and it felt like we weren't wanted. I wish we'd just left because our entree came out cold... it was a let down. We were expecting more. There was a guy who checked on us it seemed only after big moments. There was a French family there that had 6 kids RUNNING around and maybe they took all the staffs energy?

We had an exquisite lunch at abuela's tacos! The restaurant is decorated in lively colors and the inside is super cute and aesthetic period.To start, I had the tamaringo margarita, which was spicy and strong loved this drink period. My friend had the watermelon mojito and love that as well. For appetizers, we had the elote, tuna tostada and and the chicken flautas. My favorite was the tostadas, which is a must order, and the chicken flautas us as well. For the main course we had the mixed fajitas, which came out steaming and were delicious, and we also had the Rosa tacos that was super. Yummy both came with a side of black beans and rice. If you order the chicken flautas, please be aware that it also has guacamole, so aside of guac, it is not necessary. For dessert we had a tres leches cake that was perfectly sweet and good enough to share. Finished off the meal with a cafecito. I will definitely be back to this establishment because I truly enjoyed it,, the vibes were good, and the food was even better.

This place is a gem in south beach. Not only is the food and drinks so amazing, but the staff and service here is impeccable. Antonio and Cotti both have hearts of gold and literally made it feel like we were having dinner at home with our family. We ordered the Molcajete and it is basically fajitas on steroids! So flavorful and the best combination of everything you could want. It's a lava rock bowl filled with bell peppers and onions, sautéed in an amazing sauce. It also comes with every protein you want. (steak, shrimp, chicken and chorizo) I love chorizo and this is one the best chorizos, it was the perfect amount of juicy and spicy. We also got the kiwi and pineapple margaritas. They were the perfect mix. Not too sweet, strong, and an amazing price for SoBe. If you are ever in South Beach this is place you must not miss! One of the best restaurants I've eaten at here!

Overall, we had a great experience! Our server was very kind and the food was pretty descent. We ordered two drinks, which were STRONG (I'm not complaining, though). The tacos were just ok, but the shrimp ceviche was FANTASTIC! I highly recommend this restaurant, especially when compared to the lower quality restaurants nearby.The inside of the restaurant is very cute; stop by especially if you're looking for an instagram-worthy photo opportunity!

We stopped here for dinner while in Miami Beach and weren't disappointed. The place is colorful, vibrant & fun. We had guacamole & chips to start and you can tell it was fresh made. Then we split an order of carne asada tacos which were super tasty. We had a table on the patio which made for great people watching. Service was good and friendly. I would definitely recommend this spot for tasty Mexican food in South Beach.

Best enchiladas I've ever had! We also got BOGO margaritas--they were a bit small but packed a punch. The tacos were incredible, and the guacamole was super fresh and flavorful. Our server was very attentive, and the owner went above and beyond by giving us a complimentary shot for kindly switching tables to accommodate a big party.It's a small restaurant with a fun, lively atmosphere, and being by the beach just adds to the charm. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
