There are several above-average Abuelo's restaurants, but I believe this is the very best one. Do I make my point? It is a favorite stop of ours, as it is not far from DFW airport and also is close by a very good computer store. Don't mistake this cuisine for typical Mexican food, as it is very far from it. The recipes are varied, and the offerings include items that are healthful. My husband always goes for a fish dish, but I wander around the menu from eggs to much more elaborate dishes. Don't pass up having an order of extremely good potatoes.

We were ever so tired after leaving DFW airport, and I forgot to photograph the food, but take my word for it--the food was fantastic. Hubby had a new dish, 'Pescaddo en Hoja', which is a tilapia fillet covered with jumbo shrimp and baked in a corn husk. Served with rice and fresh vegetables, and of course, he also ordered the potatoes. His opinion was that it was 'the best fish dish I have ever had.' That from a man of few words who seldom praises anything.

Don't pass up your chance to dine at an Abuelo's restaurant, as the food is great, and the atmosphere is very pleasant. Although you are in an air-conditioned environment, you feel as if you are in the courtyard of a great home, as fountains splash and lights are reflected in the huge mirrors. Plenty of room for groups and families. As 'Abuelo' means 'grandfather' in Spanish, you are certainly invited to bring along your children.

Having said that, there is a separate bar and private party area. On the very few days of the year when our Texas weather is fair, you can dine out in the fresh air on a walled patio in the front of the restaurant. We left the restaurant much happier and feeling much better than the tired folks we were when we arrived.
