Abuela's Table

Mexican restaurant · Jamaica Plain

"As the name implies, Abuela’s Table welcomes customers as if at their own grandmother’s house, if their grandmother also happens to be a top-notch chef. Owner Adolfo Alvarado transported some of the hits from his Somerville spot Tu Y Yo — those mini fried grasshopper tacos with chiles, or tacos de chapulines, are a must-order — and mixed in a few new plates like a spicy habanero chicken sandwich on a brioche bun. The Mexican restaurant is housed inside a storied spot in Jamaica Plain where Cuban mainstay El Oriental de Cuba once stood." - Erika Adams, Nathan Tavares
