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

Abuelita's - #2 add 2 eggs. It was everything I was craving - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Oklahoma

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. read more

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 read more

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! read more

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. read more

Abuelita's - a restaurant with tables and chairs - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Oklahoma

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. read more

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. read more

Amanda is the best server i have ever had! the food is always good but i love our waitress Amanda! read more

Abuelita's - a mexican restaurant at night - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Oklahoma

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! read more

Slightly better than gas station Mexican. One positive thing was fast service because they probably don't waste cooking stuff. Instead they open cans. read more

Decent food, friendly service. I had an appetizer as my dinner and it was plenty big enough. Can't remember the name, but it was a yummy combination of fried potato slices, avocado slices, fried onions and jalapeños, and refried beans. Plenty of fresh corn tortillas, salsa--it was all I could want. Be aware, if you order a Tecate, you get a huge glass, more than 12 oz. and the rim is covered in crushed lime. Tasty, but the size did surprise me. They only have one desert, which I didn't try: sopapillas with strawberries. The bathroom was just a little sketchy--smelled of insecticide. read more

DENTAL ALERT! You better have really good dental insurance if you eat here as they are too lazy to properly pick the rocks out of the red beans before they cook them. read more

Something is going on here and I can't figure it out. The food didn't taste as good and the service is going down hill. Waiters aren't as attentive. read more

This is not the best. I will not return. In my opinion you can't beat Juanita's in Tecumseh.

Mediocre food. Terrible service. I try to be patient at Mexican restaurants since everyone ends up being more demanding with all the freebies, but I literally got checked on once after I placed my order. No drink refill. No salsa refill. No questions about how the food was (basically a B- version of mediocre Tex-mex places like Chelino's) I won't ever be back. read more

This is the best Mexican food around. Try the supreme quesadillas or the old fashioned tacos. (Just like my grandma used to make) read more

I've been coming to this restaurant almost since they've opened. The food has always been amazing, and the staff are friendly and efficient. I've long since moved away from Shawnee, but still make trips back home when I fly in just to eat the food. Truly a hidden treasure of a restaurant. read more

Always good food an good service. Never had a bad meal here. Now the one in Sulphur Okla stay away from it. Bad very bad.

Worst service ever!!! Waitresses didn't check on us, didn't give us menus and gave our food to the wrong people then took it back after they had already eaten off the plate and gave it to us! I had to get up to get my own to go box! Will not be going back! read more

Just so everyone knows. They SAY they close at 10 but they ACTUALLY close at 9:30. I even called ( at 9:30) asking for an order for PICK UP which literally usually takes only 10 min to get my order (because it's cheap ass food) and the guy who answered was rude to me because I was confused on why they were closed 30 min early ON A SATURDAY too read more

My family eats here frequently...it's "our place" in Shawnee, and they recognize us when we come in. Consistently good food, and fast service. When friends from out of town visit, we always go here to share it with them. read more

This place is terrible. worst Mexican food in Shawnee for nearly 20 years running. Bland and over priced. They don't try very hard.

Abuelita's is our favorite Mexican restaurant in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Very clean, hospitable staff and delicious food. The shredded beef recipes and beef fajitas are my favorite. We recommend this restaurant to anyone who has a craving for Mexican food. read more

This is one of the premier Mexican style restaurants in Shawnee. If you ask locals where to partake in good Mexican food, most of them will recommend Abuelita's. The food tastes like it was prepared a day or two in advance but it's not that bad. I prefer fresh food but finding that in Shawnee means going and making it yourself. read more

Amazing food, staff and service, I went here recently with my daughter and it was my first time and I gotta say I absolutely love this place. I will be back for sure. Awesome chips, queso, and freshly made salsa. I had the #14 chili relleno in cheese lunch special and it was soooo good. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone! You will not be disappointed! read more

Meet the family here all the time. Outstanding staff, great food, and good times. Get in here and get some Mexican favorites.

We love this place! Definitely our favorite tex-mex place in shawnee so far!

Alright. I have been living in Southern California for going on 7 years now and I have yet to have Mexican food as good as this. The service is always great, the food is always amazingly good. My grandparents used to eat here every Sunday evening for dinner. Growing up in the Shawnee, Bethel, Tecumseh area, its almost required to come eat at this place. The special sauce is amazing. They are one of the few places that bring you queso sauce with the chips and regular salsa. read more

Favorite place in Shawnee. We go often and they recognize us and make us feel at home. Love the food and the service.

Not good, at all. Please drive south to Don Ciro's where the food is actually good and the staff is actually friendly..
