Abuelita's

Great service, I asked for something a little off menu, and they nailed it for me. Great people here.

The Abuelita's in Moore OK is one of our go to restaurants for Mexican food. I know we've been eating with them since before they moved to Moore so at least 15 years. We happened to be in Shawnee at the Casino for an event and thought we'd try it for dinner before we headed back to OKC. It was easy to find using Google maps. It was a Saturday evening after 8pm and they were pretty busy and more people came in to eat as we were eating. I noticed that there were some negative reviews on the Shawnee location, but we were very happy with the food and the service we got. We have also eaten at the original location in Sulpher Abuelita's before they built the new restaurant, and the service was much better in Shawnee. Food was as expected so we weren't disappointed. I got a beef taco when I thought I had ordered a chicken taco and they offered to exchange it, but since I couldn't remember which one I had actually ordered I told them not to worry. A few minutes later, out they came with a chicken taco with apologies on getting my order wrong. I truly couldn't remember which one I ordered so it was a nice gesture. I have no problem recommending this location.

Went out to lunch with Kinfolk and Three of us had the Faquitas. The meat, both chicken and beef was dry and overcooked, also rice was dry, nothing seemed to be fresh.

The place was a little shabby and the service was slow, but adequate. The food was good and had a little different flavor that most of the places in OKC. Really good special hot sauce. My husband had the fajita enchiladas and they were good. I got the Monterrey chicken and it was good but would have preferred rice over the potatoes.

We love the staff. They know us by name and they take care of us every time we go (once a week). The food is good and comes out quickly. Ask for their "relish" and flour tortillas when you sit down - delicious! Fav Mexican restaurant in Shawnee by far!

Broke fire code by locking the door while we were eating staff was not helpful good food though

Yellow cheese sauce. Tastes like water. Taco Bell-like beef, but without flavor. I ordered a taco salad and it had a watery, greasy liquid in the bottom of the taco bowl and hardly any lettuce compared to the amount of meat. Staff is very friendly and courteous, but that can't save it from their horrible food. They have a huge following in Shawnee because they've been around for a long time, but I've been there 3 times hoping for it to be better, and was disappointed each time. The food quality is better at McDonald's.

Waitress acted like she didn't want to be there. Don't order the big bowls of cheese. We ate 5 of them and on the 5th they decided to charge us for them before ever telling us they costed extra. What makes it extra? The dish is bigger to clean? With the extra cost of cheese we didn't have enough for a tip‍

Amazing food and service!!! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a good bite to eat!!

The service was excellent! The food was good, the cheese sauce was too runny. It's a great restaurant but it is time to remodel. Also it wouldn't hurt the cashier to say Thank you!
