Abuela's Table

Mexican restaurant · Jamaica Plain

"Walk right into this cheery Mexican restaurant, run by the same team behind Somerville’s Tu Y Yo, for lunch or dinner any day of the week. Once you’re settled inside, order up a feast of tamales, tacos, cochinita pibil, hearty carne guisada, and more. Abuela’s Table snagged a Boston Globe award for best comfort food in 2024, and it lives up to the hype." - Erika Adams, Karen Wilber
