Mi Abuelito

If you're looking for a warm, inviting atmosphere with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Mexico, Mi Abuelito is the place to be. From the moment we stepped inside, the restaurant's vibrant décor and cheerful ambiance set the tone for a wonderful dining experience. The walls were adorned with colorful murals, traditional Mexican art, and beautiful touches that made the space feel both cozy and festive. It's the kind of place where you immediately feel at home--and ready to dig into some seriously delicious food.To start, I ordered the Arroz con Asada, and it was absolutely mouthwatering. The tender, perfectly seasoned strips of grilled steak were a highlight--flavorful, juicy, and just the right amount of char. The rice had a rich, savory flavor, cooked with just the right amount of spices and a little kick that kept me going back for more. The dish was served with fresh tortillas, which I used to scoop up the rice and steak, making each bite even more satisfying. It was a hearty, comforting dish that was both flavorful and filling.My fiancé, who is originally from Mexico, went with the Arroz con Pollo, and even he was thoroughly impressed. The chicken was perfectly cooked, with a nice crisp on the outside while remaining tender and juicy on the inside. The rice had its own delicious seasoning, and the whole dish was a great balance of flavors. For him to give it his seal of approval speaks volumes--he knows his Mexican food, and he agreed that Mi Abuelito delivered an authentic and tasty experience that reminded him of home.The service here was exceptional, too. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, going out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and offered excellent recommendations, adding a personal touch to the experience.Whether you're there for a casual meal or celebrating something special, Mi Abuelito delivers on every front. The combination of delicious, authentic Mexican dishes, a fun and beautiful atmosphere, and exceptional service makes this restaurant an easy recommendation. We'll definitely be returning soon to explore more of the menu--and we'll bring friends next time, because this is the kind of place you want to share. Highly recommended!

My opinion only, we were not a fan. Servers are kinda all over the place and was brought the wrong food and then had to flag down our server for the check. We got ala cart two soft tacos and two tostatas and small cheese dip 35.00. Totally not worth it.

Service was awful. Waited for over an hour for no food. I would give no stars if that was an option.

I've had this place a couple times now and I really enjoy it!! The first time we got takeout and were really impressed with how good it was. The second time we went there and tried new stuff and it was just as good, if not better. The people were so kind and attentive. The restaurant is very beautiful and set up very well. This is our favorite Mexican Restaurant in Franklin!

We randomly stopped here tonight and it didn't disappoint. The food was delicious. The salsa was by far on our favorites we have ever had at a restaurant. The chimichanga meal came with 2. My husband and I shared this meal. By far one of the best Mexican restaurants we have been to for a long time

Everything was & continues to be amazing here. I am so picky with mexican & I have yet to have a bad encounter or experience. Amazing customer service, super duper nice! Food is super good! Ambiance is always welcoming!

Omg! Cannot say enough great things about this restaurant... my fiancé and I went here for the first time on a Monday night and were sat immediately by a wonderful and friendly man who ended up being our server his name was Sylvester (hopefully spelled right). We were immediately asked what we would like for drinks and given recommendations on what's popular, I got a strawberry margarita and it was absolutely one of the best margaritas I've ever had for meals we had chicken fajitas and a "burrito gigante" everything came out fast and hot also the prices are very reasonable, can't wait to go back! Great food and service.

Everything about this restaurant!!! From the moment you walk in until you pay your bill, they pay attention to detail and the atmosphere is on point!! Great find!!

Great food, even better service.. everything was fresh and hot and everything was also very reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

It's colorful! They accommodated our party of 8 kindly and with 2 children. The fresco margarita was pretty good! The taco platter from the grill included three well made pollo corn tacos and the beans are rice were really good. Nice portions. Good service.
