Best WLM Reviews

The Brisket tacos, Fajita Quesadillas & Fajita nachos were all delicious! Our waitress was super friendly and very attentive. We recommend this restaurant and would definitely return next time we visit Waco!
The salsa is amazing!! I loved the supreme nachos, and the Baylor burrito!! The Pina colada was great!!
This was our first time there and it very good! Excellent service, friendly atmosphere and delicious food! I'd recommend giving it a try. We will be back!
I read decent reviews for this restaurant and thought I'd give it a try. But I was sadly disappointed because there was a "toothpick" inside the chimijanga I ordered. Yikes!!!! Seriously, people??????? I thought it was strange that I had to keep removing strings of tomato skin from the chimijanga only to see the horror of a toothpick inside of it. See the photo below. Ughhhhh.
This is so unacceptable. The owner/manager comped my dinner tab, and I only had to pay for my drink. The only apology I got was from my waitress, Jessa. Poor, poor service.
The food was amazing. We had a combo fajita and a avocado chicken salad. The meat was tender and juicy. The species we’re about the right amount. Their salsa was delicious, a little bit runny but delicious.
The only issue with this restaurant is that they charge a $2 fee for paying with card, no matter if it credit or debit. And, nobody tells you that before and there is no signs about it.
We have been to Abuelita’s many times and will continue to go back. The food is so good and the service is excellent! I love the Popular Platter and usually have that, we are headed there shortly and I’m thinking I might try something different this time. I do order the frozen blue margarita every time I eat there, except during lunch. My husband really likes the atmosphere as the music is not blaring and we can talk with friends while we eat. My husband usually has the Chile relleno plate along with a friend of ours. If you haven’t been there give it a try I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
Great food, and the service was excellent! I'm so glad that my husband and I found a wonderful place for lunch! I had the #6 lunch special with a taco and sour cream chicken enchalada with added guacamole, and Rick chose Taco dinner plate with an extra taco.
Very good and authentic Mexican food. The chips come out warm, the salsa has a good flavor of cilantro and has decent spice. Brisket tacos had good flavor as did the Baylor burrito.
