Willy's Mexicana Grill
Neighborhood: Midtown

1071 Piedmont Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

Jennifer M. writes: I drive around a lot for my job and usually get lunch on the company when I'm out and about. About 90% of the time I go to Willy's and the other 10% I hit up Moe's because Willy's can't be found for another 60 miles. I have been in south Georgia…

Nuevo Laredo Cantina

1495 Chattahoochee Ave NW
Atlanta, GA 30318

Ivan S. writes: I've been putting off writing this review for a long time. First, even though I've been here a million times, the last time was in my pre-Yelp, pre-looking-for-flaws-in- every-little-thing days. Second, I've always liked Nuevo Laredo which seems…

El Myr
Neighborhood: Little Five Points

1091 Euclid Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30307

Tulie L. writes: From the outside this place looks like a seedy little place, and some of the people who were having drinks there were questionable looking.. so yeah not a yuppie spot.. it's definitely a little 5 points, grudge, edgy, dark looking place.. but then…

Uncle Julio's Casa Grande

1860 Peachtree Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

Andre S. writes: Get in my belly!

Yeah, I was short of licking my plate clean after wolfing down my Chicken Enchililadas! The rice they served along with it was delish!

The margarita's are thirst quenching, but somewhat on the weak side. I prefer to have that "omg,…

No Mas Cantina
Neighborhood: Castleberry Hill

180 Walker St
Atlanta, GA 30313

Michael E. writes: I've been here once before but I was hammered, so this is actually my first sober review of the place.

Location is great because I love to see this part of town developing in to something more than what you'd expect. It's quirky, colorful and…

Raging Burrito

141 Sycamore St
Decatur, GA 30030

Jennifer M. writes: The pineapple jerk burrito is SOOOO good. Definitely the best burrito I've ever had. And I really love burritos so that's saying a lot. I tried the chipotle barbecue burrito which was quite good, just not quite up to the par they set with the…

Mi Barrio Mexican Restaurant
Neighborhood: Grant Park

571 Memorial Dr SE
Atlanta, GA 30312

Ivan S. writes: Quien es mas macho? Mi Barro o El Azteca? (waiting....) Si! Mi Barrio es muy macho!

Why oh why do Atlantans prefer to spend their hard earned dinero in subprime Mexican joints when places like Mi Barrio can be found in, well, mi barrio? As others have…

Sala
Neighborhood: Virginia Highlands

1186 N Highland Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Sarah B. writes: Salty lips met sugary lips at a dimly lit corner table.
(Muchas gracias, Sala margaritas)

The food was....nearly as tasty as my date :)

Qdoba Mexican Grill

650 Ponce De Leon Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30308

Deanna J. writes: Yet another giant burrito place. But for me, Qdoba is where I first fell in love with the whole giant burrito thing all the way back in my college days. So it was a bit of pleasant familiarity to see the Ponce location after moving to Atlanta.

I'm…

Willy's Mexicana Grill

2074 N Decatur Rd
Decatur, GA 30033

Blake B. writes: I'll take Willy's over Moe's or Chipotle any day of the week.

First off, they don't shout at you when you come in here. That is probably my #1 peeve about Moe's. There's nothing welcoming about an obligatory scream in the face.

The ingredients they use…

Pappasito's Cantina

2788 Windy Hill Rd SE
Marietta, GA 30067

Deanna J. writes: Feel free to bring a large group here. I mean, even if you had a group of 50. Seriously. They can seat you here.

This wildly popular (and wildly gigantic) Mexican place by way of Marietta is popular, and well loved by families, margarita loving…

Cazadores Mexican Restaurant

2731 Sandy Plains Rd
Marietta, GA 30066

Justin B. writes: I went here based on Blake's 4 star rating and I am happy to report that Cazadores lived up to the expectations set forth by his review. This place is a pretty nice and comfortably small Mexican restaurant that everyone in Marietta should enjoy on a…

Zocalo Mexican Restaurant
Neighborhood: Midtown

187 10th St NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

be D. writes: Mole sauce! .. er? I mean pollo con mole $11.95 ..

DARK chocolate, 3 pepper mole sauce, and it tastes like Dominican dark chocolate .. OK, it is a chain of three places here in Georgia, and yes their margaritas are strong. :-P.. Happily we walked…

Willy's Mexicana Grill

1920 Howell Mill Rd NW
Atlanta, GA 30318

Brian M. writes: Willy's is the best of the Cali burrito places I have been to. I love this location, having lived near it. You always see a nice mix of families and young people, and the full bar is a key feature, as is the outdoor seating. Talk about urban renewal,…

Taqueria Los Hermanos

4418 Hugh Howell Rd
Tucker, GA 30084

Jeff P. writes: Tucker is loaded with Mexican restaurants. A few are quite good, and some are not so good. Some are more fun than good, and one or two are just bad. As far as food goes, Taqueria Los Hermanos is the best.

The menu might appear to be limited…

Taco Mac
Neighborhood: Virginia Highlands

1006 N Highland Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Amanda H. writes: Anyone who knows me knows I love two things: trivia and Taco Mac. When I saw that the TMac in Highlands had Team Trivia on Monday nights, I decided to check it out with some friends.

My friends were sitting near the door, so I figured the front room…

Frogs Cantina
Neighborhood: Midtown

931 Monroe Dr NE
Ste A107
Atlanta, GA 30308

Kim B. writes: This is a great no frills down and dirty mexican joint in the midtown area near the park. My only complaints are that you have to purchase chips and their salsa isn't "traditional". They have a pico, chipotle and another salsa but not your…

Garcia's Mexican Restaurant

4514 Chamblee Dunwoody Rd
Atlanta, GA 30338

Gil .. writes: Great standard Mexican fare with some added specialties that are reasonably priced and tasty. Personal and consistent service.

And hey, the kids even get balloons. You can't beat that!

Taco Bell

5499 Buford Hwy NE
Atlanta, GA 30340

Sarah B. writes: Life got you down? Make a run for the border!

A quick trip to TB always raises my spirits. Just past a boarded up Payless Shoes and a now defunct ice cream joint named Basket Rabbit, my little trans fat stucco heaven greets me! I grab a few tacos…

Taxco Mexican Restaurant
Neighborhood: Buckhead

4500 Roswell Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30342

Gretchen O. writes: Hmmm.....it is OK.
The decor is definitely a divey 70's mode. Not dirty, but very worn and tired looking. The booths are ultra tiny, perfect for the solo diner, but I did watch a couple of different groups of men attempt sit in the booth, only to opt…

El Toro Mexican Restaurant

1775 Lawrenceville Hwy
Decatur, GA 30033

Christopher B. writes: Probably the best Mexican restaurant in the city. I've never had better. Service is great, ambiance is just right, food is priced just right (lunch is a terrific deal, $5-7, and dinners aren't much more expensive), and the decor is reassuringly…

Twisted Taco
Neighborhood: Midtown

66 12th St NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

Eric S. writes: *****REVIEW ALERT*****REVIEW ALERT*****REVIEW ALERT*****

OH, OH, OOOHHHHHHH IT'S MY 1 D-DOUBLE O, TH REVIEW!!!!!

Willy's Mexicana Grill

2460 Cumberland Parkway SE
Atlanta, GA 30339

Adree O. writes: Willy's burritos are the best. the Ingredients are fresh and taste great.

Cantina La Casita
Neighborhood: East Atlanta Village

560 Gresham Ave
Atlanta, GA 30316

Theodore L. writes: I must have a vendetta against my colon. Last week, I dined repeatedly at restaurants with south of the border flair, a risky gamble given my oft-turbulent insides. I couldn't help myself. After triumphing at Agave, and almost running over a child at…

Matilda Bean, A Burrito Joint

1603 White Way
Eastpoint, GA 30344

Amanda S. writes: Matilda Bean has either moved or completely shut down because they are no longer operating at this location. I gave them a try when they were around, and I didn't much care for their food. Willy's Mexicana is better & cheaper.

Monterrey Grill & Bar

629 Green St NW
Atlanta, GA 30318

Drew W. writes: I can't be sure if this restaurant used to be a strip club, but the plain building with no windows kind of makes me think that it was at some point. Maybe I'm subliminally leaning toward the conclusion since it's next to Swinging Richards? The owners…

Tijuana Flats

1830 Scenic Hwy N
Snellville, GA 30078

Justin B. writes: This has got to be one of the best burrito places that I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. They have a wide variety of Mexican dishes and hot sauces to choose from.

At Tijuana Flats I recommend and always order the Chimichanga, with chicken…

Willy's Mexicana Grill
Neighborhood: Buckhead

2280 Peachtree Road NW
Atlanta, GA 30309

Sarah B. writes: Ariba, Ariba!

Willy's serves California-style burritos--i.e. nothing "authentic Mexican" about it. If you want Mexican, might I suggest a trip to Mexico? You want a semi-shitty burrito? Might I suggest Willy's?

I JEST! Love ya Willy's! Your…

Rosa Mexicano
Neighborhood: Atlantic Station

245 18th Street NW
Atlanta, GA 30363

Deanna J. writes: Definitely pricey. But when it comes to the Atlantic Station choices, this actually makes my list - especially considering the other options like California Pizza Kitchen, the random Cheesecake Factory knockoff place (which I vow never to step foot…

La Parrilla Mexican Restaurant

2500 Dallas Hwy SW
Marietta, GA 30064

Amy C. writes: I LOVE ME SOME CHEESE DIP! LaParrilla Mexican Restaurant has THE BEST cheese dip that I have ever tasted. It's called, surprisingly enough, LaParrilla Dip. It is Mexican cheese dip with steak, chicken and shrimp and is served with flour tortillas.…

El Nopal

3101 Canton Rd
Marietta, GA 30066

Blake B. writes: El Nopal is another in the series of similar Mexican restaurants around the Atlanta area: El so and so and so and so. It's always confused me why these places all have the same menus even though they are not owned by the same folks. A #4 at El Nopal…

Tijuana Joes's Cantina #2

690 Johnson Ferry Rd
Marietta, GA 30068

Justin B. writes: After a hard days work there is nothing better than kicking back at your local Mexican restaurant's patio section and eating some Mexican and drinking some good Margaritas.

Tijuana Joe's does an excellent job to ensure that this need is fulfilled.…

Monterrey Mexican Restaurant

2300 Holcomb Bridge Rd
Roswell, GA 30076

Bill S. writes: For the last 5 1/2 years this was my local neighborhood Mexican restaurant. Its got your typical Mexican food fare, and no its not super-authentic. But Monterrey (at least this location) has a few things going for it:

1) The prices are CHEAP. My wife…

Moe's Southwest Grill

863 Ponce De Leon Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Laura F. writes: For me, it's all about Moe's. I know others will argue the merits of competing fast food mexi chains, but the gooey cheesy goodness of Moe's tops my list. My Moe's cravings are the death of my diet!

I love the new combo menu many locations have…

Ambra

1425 Ellsworth Indstrial Blvd
Atlanta, GA 30318

Carl C. writes: I was invited to Ambra for a dinner party for a friend's birthday....very cool spot. It was a little empty for a Saturday night, but the cozy ambiance and warm staff more than made up for it. I had the Chipotle Shrimp Quesadilla which was very…

Pancho's Mexican Restaurant & Cantina

2641 Buford Hwy NE
Atlanta, GA 30324

Eric S. writes: !yo quiro Taco-Bell?!?!

IIIEEEYYY-Chi WAWA!!! I had me some Mexican-can food from Pancho's and it was mucho tasty. Ok, that's about the extent of my Spian-glish.

After suffering from a very horrid case of hives yesterday morning I was craving Mexican…

Taco Cabana

1895 Piedmont Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30324

Joseph D. writes: Where else are you gonna get mexican food at 4am?

I too was introduced to Taco Cabana in Texas; San Antonio to be exact.

It may be the strange vortex of Piedmont and Cheshire Bridge roads, but this place kind of weirds me out after about 11pm. It…

Willy's Mexicana Grill

2900 Delk Rd SE Ste 800
Marietta, GA 30067

Catherine P. writes: Willy's burritos are my favorite compared to Moe's or Chipotle, or whoever else. Their tomatillo salsa is really addictive! This location is pretty good...sometimes you may get some iffy service or burrito assembly, but typically they roll em…

Lupita's Mexican Restaurant

2040 Beaver Ruin Rd
Norcross, GA 30071

Catherine P. writes: My office is very close-by, so this is a frequent Friday lunch locale. You'll probably see Lupita herself there, wearing the tightest clothes imaginable. I usually get the Quesadilla Tropical, which is a folded over tortilla containing cheese,…

Willy's Mexicana Grill
Neighborhood: West Paces Ferry / Northside

1228 W Paces Ferry Road NW
Atlanta, GA 30327

Lauren S. writes: This Willy's location is TINY compared to the other locations. It's located in the Publix shopping center at the corner of West Paces Ferry and Northside Drive, near the OK Cafe and between Panos and Paul's and Starbucks.

What this Willy's lacks in…
