Los Abuelos Mexican Grill

Wow. Where do I begin!? I guess I’ll begin at the beginning. From the moment we walked in, we were promptly greeted by the sweet hostess who showed us right to our table. Upon being seated, we immediately were served waters & chips w/ salsa; which was sooo fresh and the salsa chefs kiss.

We then met our server, Sonny. WOW!! There’s not enough words that can describe how AMAZING Sonny is! He introduced himself and let us know he’d be right back bc he needed to go wash his hands, wow! That was definitely reassuring that we were in good hands, literally 😂.

When he can back, he took his time to go over margarita options with us and recommended some. I had the millionaria & my husband had the Texas marg. Both were A-1. Delicious & hand crafted.

Throughout the dining experience he frequently checked on us, while also respecting our one-on-one time and made sure to check in if we had any questions, especially since it was our first time there.

We ordered some queso to start us off. Unbeknownst to us, he brought it out with a side of Jalapeño puree. O. M. G. The puree really elevated the queso! We were then tearing the chips up! So much that Sonny must’ve noticed and came back with a fresh batch of chips that we didn’t even have time to request.

My husband ended up getting the brisket ultimate quesadilla w/ charro beans, per Sonny’s request and it was delicious! My husband doesn’t usually care for beans but was really pleased with these.

I trusted his recommendations so much that I decided to try something completely new and something I’ve never heard of. I got the Tlayuda Oaxaqueñao per his and another server’s recommendation and wowwww. I still can’t get over how flavorful this dish is. Think of a Mexican style pizza that has all the works! It’s served on a huge, super crispy corn tortilla with refried beans, grilled chicken, chorizo, mozzarella, cilantro and finely diced red onions. I felt like I was eating back in Mexico with how fresh and authentic the dish tasted. We learned today that it’s a traditional dish per Sonny!

I cannot recommend this amazing restaurant more & I’m so happy we have one here in Marietta area.

Can’t wait to go back, do yourself a favor and go! And for Sonny while you’re at it, although I’m sure any staff member is equally amazing.

Thank you so much Sonny for your kind, friendly & attentive service. It’s so hard finding great dining experiences this day & you blew it out the park! We will be back to see you soon!
