La Mixteca Tamale House- Upper Westside

I stopped by LA MIXTEGA Tamale House and tried their spicy chicken tamales of cause they were absolutely delicious! The flavor was on point and the texture was perfect, even though they weren’t quite as spicy as I expected. The prices are very reasonable, and the service was quick and friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more from their menu. Highly recommend this spot if you’re craving authentic, flavorful tamales!

this place makes me feel like I’m in Mexico eating at my grandma’s kitchen. Thank you to the staff and young man in the front who greets you so kindly and with a warm hello. Will be returning. I brought some tamales for my coworkers today- they loved.

Great tamales and ambience. Red pork tamales need more salt, and red salsa, too. Green salsa is pretty good.

I’ve hesitated to come dine in because they are still fairly new, but with the holidays approaching I needed to find the best tamales in Atlanta. This place is it! Eleven flavors daily first come first serve.. no one in the city can even claim 3 flavors daily.
Also, they celebrate Day of the Dead so that’s one key indicator that they not only serve REAL Mexican food but observe & preserve the traditions of Mexico as well.
The decor was very tasteful not tacky and very beautiful. You can tell the owners dedicated time and passion into this holiday.
Back to the food, the tamales 🫔 were sooo good and the tacos with hand made tortillas were fresh. The menu is actually very big and will take time to try everything. The servers were amazing, Hailey and Yari were super nice and attentive. I think what I appreciated the most is when a manager takes the time to visit a guests table and introduce themselves and checks up on you. I got to meet the manager and learned so much about the history of La Mixteca. I’m proud to support a local family business.
Last, I’m excited for the breakfast menu. No one else on Chattahoochee Ave is open at 6am serving hot breakfast. We are so lucky to have such a good Mexican restaurant in our area given the high closures we’ve had recently & prices are pretty cheap and average compared to Chicheria & Palo Santo.

I had such an amazing experience here! The food was absolutely delicious — every bite was full of authentic Mexican flavor. You can really tell everything was made fresh with care. The tamales were perfectly seasoned,
On top of the great food, the place itself was beautiful — colorful, clean, and full of vibrant energy. The décor and atmosphere made it feel like a little escape to Mexico. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome from start to finish.
Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. I’ll 100% be coming back and recommending it to all my friends! 🌮💃🌿
