Abuelo's Mexican Food Embassy (Roanoke, VA)

Ahh the experience of restaurant Tex-Mex cuisine. This place has it down pat with the wonderful flavors of their meals. From the free chips and fresh salsa, all the way to the delicious entrees. However the service has gone from being one of the best places to one of the worst. Over the few years that this restaurant has been open the quality of the experience has greatly changed, from having non stop attention to begging for drink. Enough on service lets talk about the food. The picture above is the chorizo stuffed chicken medallions with spinach casserole, and rice. The taste, like always, is one of the great wonders that tantalize the taste buds.The crispiness of the chicken paired with the soft spicy of the chorizo is a wonderful taste explosion. The spinach casserole is so creamy and filled with goodness, that they need to bring me a huge bowl so I can eat it like soup. The rice however was a little dry and needed that extra wow factor. On the devouring scale I would rate this as a 7 due to the good taste but steadily declining service.
