I can’t believe I got treated the way I did.We have been buying food from abelardos for some years now as it is a family favorite. My food had meat in it but I didn’t notice it until I got home- my whole fam is vegetarian- so I went back and I told the lady that takes orders that there was steak in my food and trying to see if I could get it remade and if I wasn’t a vegetarian I honestly would’ve just ate the food because it’s a school night and I don’t have the time- she was very rude about it and told me there was nothing she could do about it and that I ordered my food wrong. I told her that I’m not a problematic person and wouldn’t even had came back if I ate meat but I know for sure I wouldn’t order something I don’t eat and now I just need a refund. She was SO rude - she tried to argue with me about how I am making the restaurant lose money and that I didn’t order right…Is unreal to me that she would treat a customer like that and I wasn’t even trying to argue with her, I tried to tell her I wouldn’t do that and she slammed the drive thru window shut on me.I will never go back to that location.

The "Beef" Burrito should have been called the "Bean with some overly cooked Beef and a Jumbo-sized tortilla to make it bigger, Burrito."The Chicken Taco Salad was okay, meh.$19.60 for 2 items is overpriced. I had to wait about 15 minutes for the food with no other customers.I was going to give them 2 ? but as I wrote this review I realized that was too kind.I'd heard the food was great and they had good prices but I disagree.

Love the breakfast burrito and literally everything else they have here. The apple churro is amazing btw. Something I would definitely recommend the first time going there. And the number 14 is my favorite.

Over priced as hell. Dry. Flavorless. With those prices you would think they wouldn't be stingy with the sauce. And the older hostess/waitress lady clearly doesnt give a f about her job. I would rate no stars if that was an option. Learned my lesson and never going back.

Many options of grea food. Staff are friendly and service is fast

Food is great! Ordering in the drive through can be a challenge because it's hard to hear what's being said. But - the food makes it worth it!

Really good food for reasonable prices a lot to choose from and a clean place to eat we will be back

The breakfast burritos will have you full until dinner!!!

Three favorite things here are the Machaca breakfast burrito, bean and cheese with sour cream burrito and the carne asada fries. Some of the best things ever. Side note. If you ever think you are hungry enough to finish an order of carne asada fries, stop lying to yourself and ask someone if they want to share. Its deliciousness will make your body keep eating till it hurts then you'll keep eating because "there's only a little bit left."

I usually love this place. I have been eating the Green Chile Burritos since the place opened up years ago. I live in Houston now and when I come into town I always order 4 or 5 to bring back with me. This last trip I ordered 4 to bring back and when I got home to Houston they were stuffed with so many beans. This is totally different then what I am used to. I called the store and the lady that answered kept insisting that they do not put beans in there burritos. I explained to her that they did put beans in the burrito this last time. She kept insisting it was not them. I have the product right in front of me she was basiclly calling me a liar. I told her how are you calling me a liar when I have the product right in front of me. She said it wasn't them and hung up. Almost $35 dollars worth of food and I cant eat them because they are filled with beans. A la senora que me colgo debe tener verguenza porque usted representa una restaurante que tiene buena comida. Si es posible que alguien izo un error. El foto es prueba. I purchased the food Saturday night around 10:30PM. Check your end of day and you will see that I purchased 4 green chile burritos. Shame on you.
