El Atacor is a popular late-night spot, known for its typical taco shop fare and competitive prices. The menu offers a variety of options, including the signature nachos and champorado. The service is usually good, with friendly staff and efficient cooks. The atmosphere can get lively, especially on weekends, attracting a diverse crowd. Despite some quirks, such as the lack of a salsa bar and extra charge for tortilla chips, El Atacor is a welcoming and fun establishment with a touch of eccentricity. Recent reviews praise the delicious food, particularly the Birria soup and Carne Asada burrito, as well as the use of non-Styrofoam to-go containers. While there were reports of pricing inconsistencies in the past, the restaurant seems to have addressed those issues and is now providing a more consistent and enjoyable dining experience.
