Abuelita's

"What a great Gem find! Abuelita’s Mexican in Richmond, VA. Great food & variety to chose from. Very clean & decorated with charm. Welcoming, friendly & up beat atmosphere. It has free parking. Wheelchair accessible & kid friendly. I highly recommend a visit here."

"This is a absolute gem of authentic Mexican cuisine, I can see it being a great lunch option or for take out, this is a place to bring your friends.. The flavors are fresh, the menu is simple and unique. The atmosphere and the staff were very inviting. They kept the place very clean and well maintained despite being in a sketchy part of town. As a first time customer they were kind enough to let me sample some of the choices and be patient enough to explain their menu. These folks are just so nice, and made you feel welcome. The food is more of stew with sides than the drier Americanized Mexican cuisine you find at other Venues, but you still can get a taco. The salsa bar was delicious. We had a great meal, and will be back."

"The best pozole I’ve had since moving to Richmond. And don’t miss out on that chicken tinga! Love this place"

"This is about the friendliest restaurant I've ever visited. The family-run business is not only passionate about food, but also about connecting with people. The menu changes based upon what quality food can be procured locally. I liked the fact that not all of the dishes had built-in hot -- for that, you can visit the toppings bar with a variety of different ways to spice up your dish. I would like to see more vegetarian options and some more non-spicy toppings. You aren't going to find a more authentic everyday Mexican meal elsewhere in Richmond. And the prices aren't bad either."

"Food was delicious! Nothing like real authentic homemade Mexican food. I had the shredded chicken. Potatoes with cactus. A side of the cactus salad and a iced Mexican chocolate. I’ll definitely be coming back."
