Celebrating 9 years of Puerto Rican food made with amor y sabor.
9 Years
Dos Abuelas has proudly been in business for 9 years. Our name translates to “Two Grandmothers,” honoring Chef Keigh’s beloved abuelas—masters of cocina criolla and her first culinary teachers in Puerto Rico.
Keigh Crespo, the daughter of Puerto Rican immigrants, was raised in the South Bronx, surrounded by the smells and flavors of true Boricua cooking. Her food blends native ingredients, traditional techniques, and the indigenous savory notes that reflect the pride, history, and culture of her roots.
Our
Roots
Dos Abuelas began in Denver in 2017 as a Puerto Rican food truck created to honor our Boricua roots. After years of sharing our flavors with the community, we've returned home to Puerto Rico, where this journey was always meant to lead.
What started as a food truck has grown into something much deeper—a celebration of Puerto Rican culture, family, and tradition. As we search for the future home of Dos Abuelas, we continue serving the island through catering, private dining experiences, curated meal boxes, and community-focused events.
Inspired by the recipes, resilience, and love passed down through generations, Dos Abuelas is rooted in the spirit of Borikén. Every dish blends traditional cocina criolla with Chef Keigh's modern culinary approach while honoring the flavors, stories, and traditions that raised us.
Today, Dos Abuelas proudly shares authentic Puerto Rican cuisine made with intention, culture, and corazón. Everything we create is made con amor y sabor—just like Abuela intended.
