Love this place!!! Authentic Mexican food in a casual atmosphere. So glad it's here. My favorites here are the Chicken Tampico soup, the taco de carnitas and the Enchiladas Verdes. read more

We had the Carnitas and Molcajete Tierra. Both were very good. Enjoyed the friendly service. While I like the refried black beans, my wife did not. Can't wait to go back and try something new. read more

Nice quaint Mexican eatery on the main strip of West Reading PA. Very good portions, nice wait staff. Food was great. Will return.

Best Mexican Ever!! We had the carnitas, enchiladas verdes, pazole and queso fundido con chorizo and it was all amazing!!! Don't forget to BYOB...Virginia makes the best margaritas! Amazing food and service!! Highly recommend this place...can't wait to come back! read more

This place is the real deal. Authentic all the way. Great traditional fare. I ordered the shrimp, beef and chicken fajitas which came with rice, beans, sour cream and a spoonful of tomato-onion salsa. Guacamole was not included so I ordered it extra. The Guac was fresh and textured. The fajitas came with 4 large shrimp and the beef and chicken was thin and small. The establishment does not serve alcohol. The order came out quick and hot. This would be a great place for lunch. read more

La Abuela - Mexican Near Me - West Reading, Pennsylvania

This is the best place I to get delicious, authentic Mexican food with tasty and fresh ingredients!! I first came here a few years ago with my Grandmom who has learned to make a few really delicious traditional Mexican dishes after traveling to Mexico and South America a few times, and we both agreed that La Abuela is top notch! It is great quality food all throughout their extensive menu at really reasonable prices too, even now when COVID has caused many prices to jump and menus to shrink. We all had enchiladas (verde, mole verde, mole poblano, and enfrijoladas) and got a side of esquites which was really unique, but also quite tasty. Plus we received chips and salsa which are normally a free appetizer type of thing when you eat in at the restaurant, but we weren't expecting since we got the food for carry out (they don't offer dine in during COVID), which was a really nice surprise!My only minor (very minor) complaint is that the enfrijoladas which were described in the menu as having a creamy bean sauce covering them, were a bit sweeter than we were thinking they would be and had an almost chocolatey taste to them. They were still absolutely delicious and paired really nicely with the spicier enchiladas that we ordered, but it might be a a good idea to mention their sweeter taste in the menu. I would so highly recommend this place to anyone looking for some amazing authentic and incredibly reasonably priced Mexican food. I would also recommend trying their horchata, it's perfectly sweet and spiced and cuts the heat of the rest of the meal so well! read more

Our first time here. Saw them at Arts Festival and wanted to have more of their food. Didn't disappoint. More authentic than most Mexican restaurants. Definitely will go back! read more

Had a wonderful meal! The mole verde enchiladas were amazing and only 8.99 for lunch! Great service and quiet/clean space.

Took my wife out here for a second time. Th e first time was pretty sad customer service a night that the restaurant was not all that busy. But the food was reasonably good. To night my wife ordered three chicken tacos. I ordered Enchiladas Verde with beans and rice with an order of Black bean soup. The soup came first, which was delicious. Then my Enchiladas Verdes arrived with no beans and rice. I was distracted as my wife's three chicken tacos never made it to the table. I finished my dinner we questioned our server who replied that they had had received a lot of to go orders. The server said her order would be right out. My wife replied just put them in a box to go. After even more time passed still no show so she went to server and told him we were leaving and he could keep the taco order and that she would pay for my Enchiladas Verde and my black bean soup. Which she did and left no tip. Maybe the to go people will pick up our slack. Never going back. Table 3 Cashier Jay Dec 10th order 2RJW88F5Y4rpj 5:57 pm. Repeat never going back! read more

Tastes alright, little do all the 5 star raters know, you can go get better tacos for less in reading at carreton or Jimenez. I guess they aren't really paying for the food though, they're paying for the location in West Reading. read more

Overpriced food. Waited a long time for 3 carryout dinners. Next time I'll go into the city and find plenty of places with better quality and lower prices. read more

This was by far the best Mexican food I have ever had!! Plus they deliver. Simply amazing!

I went to La Abuela after spending the evening at a theater. I was with my boyfriend and two younger brothers, one of which has autism. My brothers really wanted pizza but my boyfriend and I wanted Mexican. It was cold outside, and we didn't want to eat outside. So, I asked the staff at La Abuela if we could dine there as well as bring pizza from another restaurant for my brothers. The staff was fantastically understanding and they had a kind and polite manner with my autistic brother. The food from La Abeula was wholesome (I ordered a seafood soup and my boyfriend ordered a seafood fajita.) We felt relaxed and enjoyed our time there. The flavors are comforting and authentic, and I believe it's a great place to go with family and children, a casual date with one's lover, or to simply dine alone! The portions are also reasonable and I was satisfied after eating my soup and having one tortilla with veggies. What is more, I got a 10% discount when I presented my receipt from my visit before! I would definitely go again and I recommend anyone who is looking for authentic Mexican food to give it a try! read more

Attentive, friendly service. Food was delicious and prices reasonable. On Penn Ave, but felt tucked in.

I had their tacos de carnitas. Whatever they marinate their pork in is fantastic. The service was a little off but I think it's due to only one server literally doing everything which wasn't fair. I can't wait to go back and try something else. read more

Food is really good. I ordered carnitas. So delicious with pico and refried beans. Prices are a little bit high probably due to its location. read more

We had a great dinner here! Enchiladas and one of the lava bowls with Carne Asade, chicken and chorizo. Very authentic and fresh. And great personalized service. We weren't quite sure walking in, it's kind of bright with the fluorescent lights but the food was fantastic. We can't wait to go back. read more

Very tasty, authentic Mexican fare served by friendly faces. Service was rather slow but, if you aren't in a hurry, this place delivers. They have great little smoothie-style drinks and everything that we ate was delicious. Speed of service was the only complaint. Will definitely be back. read more

I'm very disappointed in this restaurant. We came because of the good reviews on Yelp, but we were dissatisfied with the poor customer service. Begore ordering the Mole, I asked the waiter if it was spicy and he assured me that it wasn't. However, when the food arrived and I tasted it, I realized it was spicy and it also tasted like fish. I called the waiter and told him I couldn't eat it so he asked me if I wanted something else. I ordered a torta assuming I was not going to be charged for the Mole so I was really surprised when the bill arrived and they had charged me for both plates. I talked to the waiter who said that he couldn't do anything about it so he called the manager. I talked to the manager who refused to make any adjustments to the bill but offered to pack the Mole for me. The same Mole I didn't like to begin with. So I wouldn't recommend this place to anybody. The food is ok but they need training on customer service. read more

I'd give them 5 stars... but the food is made to please "Americans" their food doesn't taste Mexican, although the recipe is almost there.

Went a couple of weeks ago for dinner with friends. First time there. The service was so incredibly slow. I ordered salmon fish tacos and the taste was extremely fishy. Couldn't finish it. That night at 1am I had incredible stomach pain and was vomiting. Never again. read more

Had the guac and the carnitas tacos off the lunch menu. Simple and very tasty; the pork was tender crunchy, instead of the soupy shreds you often get elsewhere. Service very good. read more

Great place for Mexican food in West Reading. The inside is nice and casual. They are BYOB and service is friendly. Ask for the specials of the day. The blue corn sopes were awesome! They also serve mexican breakfast classics too. read more

The food was great. The $12 platter was enough for 2 meals, this affordable. We found parking in the back when we found the front street parking was full. read more

Ordered Chicken Mole Poblano. Was really good.

Food was awesome. Great service. This place is nice to take your time or if you are in a hurry.

We stopped by for a quick lunch. I had the vegetarian enchiladas with salsa verde and my husband got a burrito with chicken and steak. We both enjoyed our meals. I was happy to see the enchiladas bursting with crunchy veggies and just a bit of cojita cheese on top. Black beans were also good but the rice was very salty. read more

It was very good and home made. I would definitely come again. I strongly suggest chipotle ceased salad. They were very nice there and had fast service. read more

The food here is consistently really tasty, the ambiance is casual and lovely. An all-around great spot in West Reading.

Good food, good prices, good people, BYOB. What else do you need? Guacamole, chile pablano, and any carnita platter are my favorites. Give LA a try. read more

it was really good I got the seafood molcajete w/ the mole verde, it came out really hot so I would wait for it to cool off next time but it was quite good - murky, thick, complex, beautiful. Came with a side of flavorful refried beans and some rice......can't wait to try more. service was really nice too. read more

The food is delicious & fresh, with a great selection. The service is excellent & friendly. My husband & I will be frequent customers here!

Fantastic new restaurant in Wyomissing/Reading. Great selection of burritos, tacos, fajitas and salads. Definitely try the chorizo con queso and verde sauce. One of the best tomatillo sauces I've had. BYOB. Great selection for margaritas. Good parking across the street. Great accommodating service, very welcoming. read more
