The new location [2032 West Main] and building are great. The interior is brightly decorated and very welcoming. Staff are friendly and definitely family friendly. El rodeo has both indoor and outdoor seating. We were there on a Friday evening and the place was packed. They do take reservations, so you might want to call ahead if you plan to dine at a peak time. The âtablesideâ guacamole was a great value, given the rising price of avocados lately. We enjoyed all of our entrees and can recommend the cazuelon, the quesadilla fajita shrimp, and the taco trio - grilled chicken, carne asada, & shrimp [see pictures] . We will definitely be back the next time we are in town!

Wonderful option for yummy Mexican food. Salsa bar is always a hit; filling and reasonably-priced kids' meals; many options for nachos. Can accommodate large parties. Do not be alarmed by tinted windows. Unfortunately, service can be a bit spotty/chilly/slow, hence three stars on this visit.

Late night dinner & looking for something fairly light landed us at Abuelo's which turned out to be an excellent choice. We were staying nearby & scheduled for an early morning flight at Roanoke Airport. Went with their Tortilla soup & decided to share an order of nachos...smart move because the nacho platter was huge. Good atmosphere, attentive server & very fair prices added up to a great experience.
