This has been one of our favorite restaurants for well over 10 years. We used to go to their old location and have continued going to the new location. The staff is amazing and the food is always perfect. Definitely one of our favorites. The best Mexican around! read more

Overall solid Mexican restaurant. The food was pretty tasty, but not the best quality. Quesadillas didn't come with sour cream and salsa, I got charged for that. Taco salad is good, not that big but good portion. Guacamole was not fresh and could tell it was from a tub. 3 stars is perfect for this place. read more

Definitely a great Mexican place. I've been there twice and have enjoyed my meal both times. The service the first time was a little annoying, the waiter took our chips & salsa without asking if we were done and tried to take my date's food before he had finished eating. I felt like they were rushing us, but we were well before closing time. The second time I went the service was a lot better. The atmosphere is gorgeous and quiet. I'd definitely recommend this place and I will definitely go back. read more

I just bought my first takeout dinner from this place. I usually don't leave reviews. But this food is fantastic. Very rich in taste. Great sauces. Well cooked. Simply outstanding. Very good job. read more

Never disappointed with this place. Good fresh food and awesome portion size. They are quick to deliver and always make sure it arrives hot. Nice on the phone also if you have questions. read more

Bring a big appetite for their big portions. The salsa verde was a little too spicy for me, but I am a baby when it comes to spicy food. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area. read more

Located right in downtown Matawan, this is a Mexican restaurant. You wouldn't think it, just hearing the name. It's a small place with maybe a dozen tables. Nothing fancy. The people working there are great people, always friendly. It's a BYO, which is always a good thing. The menu is authentic Mexican at fairly reasonable prices. Burritos, chimichangas, quesadillas, tacos, enchiladas...everything you would expect from a place like this. You can also get combos of the above. I usually order a dish called "dos compadres," which is salmon filet and shrimp cooked in a chipotle cream sauce. Most main courses come with black beans and Mexican rice. The quality of the food is good most of the time. But every once in a while the beef and chicken in their dishes can be overcooked. I guess that can happen anywhere. Bottom line is I'm definitely a fan. read more

Great little byob for authentic Mexican food. I've eaten here several times and thoroughly enjoyed it. I always get the cream de jalapeño sauce it is the right amount of spice foe enchiladas. read more

Living in central jersey this place has pretty authentic Mexican food. The price for the portions are pretty good. The ambiance and the cleanliness is very nice. It's definitely a place I would go back to for a quick dinner/lunch. I love the chicken nacho appetizer,quesadillas, and tacos. They give you reasonable portions for what you pay. Also, the chicken tortilla soup is delicious and it may look small, but it is pretty filling! My fiancé loves the enchiladas & burritos. I like how you can BYOB. The waiters are friendly. I was very happy with the service, and reasonable prices. I definitely recommend this spot. Plus it is very close to the Aberdeen Matawan train station :) I didn't give this place 5 stars only because the menu is pricey. read more

Really good place to get authentic Mexican food. The guacamole was fresh and the salsa had the right amount of flavor and kick. The steak fajitas were delicious. Highly recommend it. read more

Deceitful and rude service. Food is not very good and service is worse. I thought the empanadas were overpriced so I asked waiter how big are the empanadas, he stated oh there very big, when the empanadas were served they were smaller than stated and not very good. He lied about their size and seemed annoyed he was waiting on us. I've had better food elsewhere. They need to fire the server with the black framed glasses. Get better chef and hire pleasant and honest servers. Not worth the time or cost to go there. If you want better food and prices go elsewhere. They don't deserve any stars but had to put a star in order to post review. read more

Nice people and probably for the price best Mexican food around too bad they don't make pizza anymore it was good.

My friend told me this was the place to go for mexican. I got a burrito with meat. I asked the waiter what kind a meat it was. He told me it was shredded beef. I ordered that. I got a burrito was chunks of steak that i couldnt chew. My girlfriend's dish wasnt much better. Would not back! read more

Love Abys! I have been going here for as long as it has been open. Its an A+ for good local Mexican food that is made with fresh ingredients and great service! BYOB is always a plus and it steps from the train station which makes it hard to ignore on a friday night after working in the city. read more

Long wait for very little food and its the definition of mediocre, mediocre! (Richard Sherman's voice)

My husband and I have been on a quest to find the best Mexican food in Nj . This place was not it .The food was cold ..bland and a small portion for the price . I'm giving it one star because the bathrooms were very clean which is important to me .. Clean bathrooms = clean kitchen. read more

A little pricy but, great food. My only complaint was the waiter was not very attentive(restaurant was not packed.)

Best place for Mexican !! I have been eating here for years and it's consistently delicious. It's BYOB and they deliver !!!! Love it!!!

Ordered Fajitas, Rice and Beans off the Aby's catering menu for my son's Bday party. Had it delivered. Perfect!! Food is absolutely Delicous! Ordered for about 20 people, there was way more than enough. The delivery driver was so friendly, he had to keep coming back with more trays and it was chaotic but he was very understanding and pleasant! I would definitely recommend for dinner or parties!! read more

I was dining today on 3/24/19. The serve was horrible and food was awful. Place is Mexican but they are playing Dominican music. The waiters were rude and nasty but required a generous tip . The food is over price and not all that good. Save your money and time go elsewhere. read more

Not the best. Very disappointing. Our waiter was excellent, my dinner was not. I ordered an appetizer with lobster. I don't thing there was a teaspoon of lobster meat. I sent it back and asked for two chicken tacos. Clearly the kitchen was annoyed. I got two tacos with chicken and a sprinkle of lettuce. That's it, no sour cream, salsa. Too many excellent Mexican restaurants in the area. Don't waste your time or money!!! read more

Been going there for years, real Mexican food made by real Mexicans. No Taco Bell crap here. read more

Best Mexican spot around. Might be a bit pricey, but definitely worth the price. Chimichanga's are fantastic. Fast service, good atmosphere. read more

I love a restaurant that delivers.. good was tastey and delicious. Definitely will order again..

I took my wife, kids and dad to this restaurant a few months ago. I was expecting the food to be "semi-decent" to "pretty good". It turned out to be some of the best Mexican food we had eaten in a long time. We ordered a mix of enchiladas, tacos, tamales, and quesadillas (for the kids). The portions were perfect; everything comes with a side of rice and refried beans. Plus, the wait staff will tell you everything is chopped and prepared fresh each day, and I don't doubt it! Speaking of wait staff, the young men were highly professional and treated my kids with proper respect. And the owner made it a point to come over and give us a warm welcome... 5 stars, hands down! read more

I've eaten here two times. Plenty of parking and close to the Matawan train station. Service is good but on my last visit we asked for salsa to be brought separately, when the meal arrived it was covered in it. We were very hungry so we ate it anyway. Food is ok, nothing special, but expensive for what it is. Won't be coming back. read more

Love this place. Went there for lunch last week. Very warm and inviting atmosphere with a beautiful Christmas tree in the corner. I ordered the chorizo fajitas and chumichanga. Both were fresh and delicious. I will definately be going back. read more

Aby's is great! The staff are always very nice and welcoming, and the food is delicious. My whole family loves Aby's.

We have been going to Aby's for a few years. I think it was better when it first opened, but it is still a decent place. I definitely would recommend trying the specials, they are always excellent. The service is ok and always polite. We go a few times a year since it is close to home and much better than those chain Mexican places. The other good thing about Abys is that it is a BYOB read more

The food is so so at best. It cures my the mex fix. However, they are overpriced and their chorizo is gross. Unfortunately, some of the dives which produced far better food are out of business. This place is ok, but you can do better and not too far away either. read more

have been waiting to try this place for a long time it was well worth it.. place is small and unless you are looking for it can drive right by.. we got the last table as the other half of the place was having a party .. we were seated immediately and our beverage order was taken right away.. they are very attentive to all your needs and are constantly checking back to make sure evreything is ok.. had chicken chimichanga and it was delicious. other guests had the specials of the day and no one was disappointed .. the portions are quite large !! i will say the only disappointment was the dessert we ordered flan and it was not good at all. to thick and tasted more like pumpkin pie so i will say stay away from that otherwise i don't think you will be disappointed and i will be going back !! read more

Really good food. We've had takeout and eaten at the restaurant and have yet to be disappointed. The burrito mojado is very good. If you like very spicy try it with arbol sauce or if you like it mildly spicy try the salsa verde sauce. Ambiance is fine and good service. read more

Amazing fresh guacamole, delicious steak burrito, but the highlight is the sauce. Cream of Chipolte is amazing.

Really really good food at good prices and decent portions. The salsa was amazing. So good. So much flavor in the burrito I had. I really enjoyed my meal. Can't wait to come back! read more

Excellent Mexican Food!! They moved to a bigger location, which I think made the price of the food go up, but whatever its worth it. The staff is great and make the experience that much better. Been here a few times since moving to the area, and employees where I work are always ordering their lunch from here. I usually order something different every time and never had a bad meal. 9/10 read more

Abyss is amazing! The food is always fresh And tasty. Their chips and salsa are great. The chips are light and not greasy. The Shrimp fajitas are my favorite. We have eaten there about half a dozen times and it is always consistent. read more

Fantastic Mexican restaurant. Everything taste homemade and they clearly care a lot about their food and customers. If you catch me at the wrong time the service can be a little slow but it's not because they are ignoring you. Their salsa is made fresh and is a phenomenal way to start the meal if they forget to put on the table make sure you ask for it. Extremely recommend their Seafoods very wholesome tasty and the perfect remedy if you have a sore throat. My personal favorite is the Aztec burrito. If you can try to get the waiter with the long hair gives great recommendations and will never steer you wrong. read more

First time at this restaurant. Appetizers were very good the calamari and spinach con queso were great. I had enchilada carnitas and tamale all delicious. Guac was really good. You can tell everyone enjoyed dinner because a table of 12 all went silent except for the chewing. Wish this place was closer to home. Byo read more

Great place for Mexican!! Generous portions of chips and salsa that are complimentary. My favorite dish and go to dish are the tamales, they are amazing!! Great staff-when calling in and picking up orders they double check to make sure everything is there and correct with your order. The guacamole is to die for as well :) read more

First let me say that I have been coming to Aby"s since they were in a hole-in-the-wall place on main street Matawan. One thing in particular has annoyed me for years. They do not serve you chips and salsa when you first sit down. And if, as I occasionally do, you order two appetizers with a side order of rice and beans, which basically costs the same as a dinner, you don't get salsa and chips at all. For a better selection and value for your money, try Juanitos in Red Bank. read more
