    Very vibrant, fun restaurant! We were greeted and sat immediately, and welcomed by our very outgoing server. Their salsa had a good flavor to it. Our food came out quickly. I got one of their burritos, and when I tell you this plate was huge I mean it. The burrito itself was delicious as well. The price was more than other Mexican restaurants in the area, but portions were definitely bigger so it evens out. Overall, I would return for this burrito, LOL.

    Passing through the area. It's Taco Tuesday so here we are! Was not expecting much but this place blew us both away. The artistic decor just beautiful and authentic. Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was even better! We've been to so many Mexican restaurants in different states and it's hard to find just a simple taco that tastes right. We're very pleased we found the "one" to come back to.

    I went here for lunch after doing a bit of shopping next door. They are located in the strip behind Kinkos. First of all I had THE BEST waiter- Carlos. I was having and okay day but man did he brighten it up! He was nice and attentive and funny. You could really tell he loved his job. I ordered the lunch fajitas and they were really good. I wish they came with lettuce and pico but I also could've asked too. I added a picture of the lights because I thought those were cool. I will for sure come here again and sit in Carlos's section.

    The food is always good here! Our service was quick. They were sort of busy when we came, but we were able to get seated quickly. We came to celebrate my brother's birthday and will be back. There is parking right outside the door.

    Quest with beef & Chicken Flautas

    Wife the other night after a rough day said she needed a margarita. I did a Yelp search for nearby & came across Mi Abuelito. I am not a fan of Mexican food but after perusing the menu I thought I'd be ok. The location is at the end of a strip mall. Doesn't look like much from the outside but boy is the inside colorful. The pics we took didn't do the colors justice. She ordered a mango margarita which she found both huge & tasty. We had an appetizer of quezon with beef which was okay nothing out of the ordinary. For her entree she ordered chick flautas which she found good. Nothing spectacular but not bad. Would have found some quest to dip them in a great addition. My nachos came out just as I ordered them. Chips, protein, cheese & sour cream. I found it very tasty! The chips are homemade. Service was hit or miss. No problem getting seated, served , drink refills but seemed to take forever to get our check. Overall a good experience & we will be back Pro tip If you like chips & salsa that come free you can skip an appetizer as the meals are large.

    Like many Mexican restaurants around Indy, Mi Abuelito has a lot of color and flare in the decor. Though, I think Mi Abuelito probably goes well over the top compared to others. If you find lots and lots of color, sculptures, and art distracting, this might not be the place for you. The server was fine. And so was the food. Nothing here really made me say "Wow!" But it was all OK and I'd eat here again if I was in Greenwood and wanted a traditional US Mexican meal. The place was clean, service was fine, and the food was fine.

    Highly festive decor

    The reviews for this place propelled me to give it a try. Any place that has at least a 4 star rating peaks my interest, especially considering I am still looking for a fave go to Mexican restaurant. This restaurant had a very colorful decorated interior. It seems more so than I have ever seen before. Our server, ( and all of the servers ) were so friendly and upbeat. We ordered a beef wet burrito and a combo plate with a beef taco, refried beans and a chile relleno. My friend enjoyed her burrito. My combo plate was OK They didn't skimp with the beef taco because it was filled to the top with ground beef. I didn't get much else with it. Barely any cheese or lettuce. The chili relleno was satisfactory. The beans were not impressive. They were very runny and had an odd color to them. They weren't flavorful. The complimentary tortilla chips and puréed salsa were just OK as well. I felt the price for the food was a bit high. I probably won't return to this restaurant.

    Best tacos in the city, great drinks, the waiters are always SO nice, beautiful dining area & bathroom. Our favorite restaurant.

    My family decided to come to dinner here tonight. We were seated quickly but didn't have service for drinks or food fast. We ordered queso and guacamole- both were pretty good but not amazing. I ordered the arroz con pollo which is always a solid choice. They have large portions here so I ended up taking some home. Overall I enjoyed the food. The place is decorated decently for a Mexican spot and I enjoyed how large the space was.

    Stuffed Did I mention I was stuffed? It was the meat for me. I know I need to say more, but some things don't require a lot of words. This restaurant was great! The food was delicious. I did not care for my chelada, but everything else was terrific. I had the fajitas De Luja - steak, chicken, shrimp, carnitas, pork rib, and chorizo. Oh yes, and peppers and onions.. Oh, wait, and rice and beans.. Shoot, I forgot to mention the small salad and flour tortillas. Yep, check them out

We were seated in their outdoor area where the heaters were not turned on and the day had been rainy and cold so most of the table was cold throughout our meal. The service was a bit slow but it being cinco de mayo, we understood that things may move a little slower than any other day. They had some specials for the day but I got my old faithful, Maria's Enchiladas with steak. It comes with rice and beans and it's just so so soooo good!!! I also got the Arroyo Margarita which was good but def could tell they were adding a bit more sour mix to the drink. Overall, it was a good experience but I will try to come back again on a day that is not as busy.

Even with the rush, I was able to snag a seat quite quickly. I was so impressed by how efficiently the staff cleared and prepared my table; it's those little touches of attentiveness that really make a difference. I decided to keep things classic and ordered the Asada Tacos. The service was remarkably swift my order arrived in under ten minutes, which is exactly the kind of efficiency I adore. While the initial presentation was a bit more understated than I anticipated, the flavor was a total 8/10 triumph! The staff was also incredibly accommodating when it came to my preferences; they brought over a lovely selection of chips and sauces, but were perfectly gracious when I mentioned I prefer to avoid the heat. These are truly some of the best tacos I've had the pleasure of trying lately. I will most certainly be a regular here!

I don't know how else to explain it. The queso is delicious. They have a salsa bar, and I'm not joking when I say there are a lot of delicious homemade salsas on the salsa bar. You have to buy a basket of chips, but it's very inexpensive and so worth it for the salsa bar! Lastly, the Al pastor is the bomb. The inside is really nice, the owners are so gracious and remember us when we come back each time. Don't sleep on this place--it's perfect for a weekday dinner or a weekend date night!

The restaurant is sleek and has a cool vibe, but we immediately realized it was not going to be what we thought of when we saw "street tacos" mentioned during Google search. It's more of a metropolitan American Soul fusion place, with a heavy emphasis on loaded, uniquely flavored tacos instead of traditional Mexicana. The server was wonderful in explaining their menu and gave multiple recommendations, which I went with all of her great suggestions once I told her what I was craving. My husband didn't enjoy his appetizer, saying it tasted too sweet instead of savory for him, but the server was great at being aware of our plates and took the appetizer off our bill when she noticed he wasn't eating it without us even mentioning it. I got three different tacos, and the only one I didn't enjoy was due to the Mac n cheese that was stuffed in it. It just didn't taste or feel right having a taco with macaroni that was pushed in so densely that it became a sponge. The other two were great! My husband gave his burrito a 3/5, as he felt it was too much one note. Overall, don't come here if you're looking for upscale Mexicana, but instead want to enjoy interesting fusion flavors and fun cocktails. Great place for a group outing or celebration!

Then again, it's not an uncommon story unfortunately- large parts of the city forgotten in terms of economic development but then suddenly needed during times of campaigning. Had taken Keystone and then Rural Street to get here, and the potholes are not kind. But, we had this place on our list and were determined to make it here at least once. Tlaolli stood out for its vegan offerings. Plenty of vegan taco options, birria (an absolute rarity to see vegan birria), and torta. They offer soy chorizo, jackfruit, and king oyster mushrooms as protein options. The exterior is colorful, and inside there are seating options. We had gotten our food to go, so I cannot comment too much on the service. Had placed our order online, and the food was ready within the estimated time in the order. We ordered the vegan birria tacos ($17.99), the vegan torta ($10.99 base but added soy chorizo, which was $3.99), and the no-no-no taco ($5.99). Our total with fees was approximately $45. Tlaolli offers outdoor seating, so when the weather is nicer this would be a good place to come. Next to the East Washington IPL branch, Tlaolli has a colorful green exterior with neon signage. Food: The food was very good. The proteins were nicely seasoned and juicy. The highlight for me was the birria tacos and the consome. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. 10/10.
