“We love Little Rey!! We worked with Baleigh from LR when planning our Rehearsal Dinner for our wedding weekend, and we had such a great experience!! Their team was very easy to communicate with, and they offer a third party delivery service so we were able to have our food delivered/set up at our venue stress free! Our rehearsal dinner was at a local brewery, so their delicious tacos were perfect fit for the event. We had SO many compliments from our guests about how amazing the food was-- the food was very fresh and tasty and such a beautiful display! We would highly recommend and are so thankful for their help in making our event so special!“

Make sure you come to enjoy the food and great service! Oh and the drinks….the margarita flight for sure took you to outer space LOL!“

“Great food great staff!!!!)“

“Love it! Consistent every time! Great Cocktails!“

“Excelente la cómida, las bebidas, y el buen servicio que nos brindaron.“

“Great time celebrating Dia de los Muertos 💀“

“The food was excellent. The space was super cool. We were on a strange shaped table but there were 3 of us so it worked out. Our server was both making our coctails and serving. That gave her too many jobs to be efficient. I don't know what the bartender was doing but he was not helping her. Prices match the quality, but I would like to see the small bites cheaper than the taco dishes. I would go again.“

“Food was delicious!! Ordered Tacos de la abuela grilled beef and pastor, meat was tender and seasoned perfectly. The salsas they offer are very tasty and pair perfectly with the tacos. The veggie quesadilla was also very good tortilla was crispy. Agua de Jamaica was not too sweet nor lacked sweetness just the perfect in-between.“

“Today was first visit of many to come to this place., Totally recommend it. The flavor in the food I ordered absolutely brought me back to my childhood memories in San Juan del Rio. I Had the opportunity to chat with the owner and It was a very pleasant and friendly conversation.“

“Amazing food , drinks & service , such a cute spot , delicious strong margaritas & once again amazing service. ❤️“

“Food portions are great. I can't speak to the tacos, but the bowls are pretty good.

However, I asked for my drink to be made with less agave, and it was straight sugar when I got it 😭

Atmosphere is a little too sterile and corporate franchise-looking for my taste, but it's good for a quick catchup lunch with folks.“

“First Timer While Visiting Fam Delicious food And the Staff were very accommodating And Friendly !Drinks Top shelf !“

“Visited with my family and EVERY item ordered was delicious. I especially like the option for corn tortillas for the enchiladas, as there are those in my family who are gluten intolerant. The enchiladas were AMAZING and I highly recommend getting them with the beef red chili sauce. The cheese dip and guacamole are favorites, as well. We also ordered the fish tacos, fried chicken tacos, and brisket tacos, with our favorite being all three!“

“This place is phenomenal! Their salsa bar is fantastic. A great selection of street tacos. And their service is super friendly!! Highly recommend.“

“My first time in New Summerhill!! The food was delicious and the atmosphere is great. Our hostess/waitress Ivonne was phenomenal. She was personable , professional and had an overall warm and inviting spirit. The food was great and they were willing to make some modifications for me. We will be back.“

“Amazing food and great service.“

“The food here is INCREDIBLE. So much flavor in everything we ate. We got the queso bosque for an app and then the Birria tacos and costra tacos and it was also so delicious. I recommend getting the mezcalita! It was hibiscus flavored and also delicious. Alexandra was our server and was so sweet and very attentive.“

“I go here a lot to pick up food for my vegan wife. I've tasted it's legit.“

“Had their special drink “beso de muerto” (video attached) and it’s so delicious! Food, per usual is always great. Servers are super personable, friendly, and fast service. Favorite thing on the menu has to be carnitas and the Camarones brochette. Calamari is nice and a touch of spice! Definitely a go to for me !“

“The night crew at the airport grill was commended. Thank you, Jasmine“

“Poco Loco unquestionably holds the title of the best breakfast burrito spot in Atlanta for me, and at the heart of this culinary haven is the visionary, Chef Nick Melvin. My first encounter with Chef Nick was a serendipitous one, while I was working at The Farmhouse at Serenbe, and this meeting forever transformed my perspective on dining. Poco Loco's breakfast burritos are nothing short of legendary. Each bite is a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, a testament to Chef Nick's culinary artistry. His ability to elevate the humble breakfast burrito into a gourmet masterpiece is truly unparalleled. It's evident that he approaches each creation with the same passion and precision that I witnessed during my time at Serenbe. During my tenure, I had the privilege of observing Chef Nick's love for food up close. His dedication to sourcing the freshest, locally grown ingredients and his unwavering commitment to sustainability left an indelible mark on me. It was there that I first saw him as a culinary artist, a maestro who could turn the simplest ingredients into symphonies of taste. Chef Melvin's profound respect for food and its potential to bring joy to people's lives forever changed my outlook on dining. His emphasis on the importance of savoring each bite, appreciating the journey of flavors, and supporting local producers reshaped how I approached food. It's this very philosophy that he brings to Poco Loco, where every breakfast burrito is a celebration of culinary creativity and a testament to his enduring passion. Chef Nick continues to be a source of inspiration, proving that dining is not merely sustenance, but an art form that has the power to elevate our lives and nourish our souls.“

“Food was great, good vibes, good music. Food did not take long. Great service! Definitely recommend!“

“My Sister and I enjoyed it. Alex was very nice, attentive and helpful. The atmosphere is inviting. The queso was delicious. My bacon and cheese grits were perfect. Next time I'm in Atlanta, I'll definitely try to visit the Birdcage again!“

“The food is always delicious when I come to eat.“

“I am coming back soon again ! I this place has it💯 good food. Thanks for getting my order correct. 💪🧠👍🏻“

“Today was my first day here. The food was awesome and the customer service was out of this world. Don't take my word for it. Try it for yourself.“

“Wow! I have never had a better experience, truly! Before we even walked in the door Malachi made the best first impression with his warm welcome as he opened the door and greeted us. Diana and Farrah were so sweet and made us feel so welcome and offered to take our photos in front of the beautiful backdrops. The atmosphere here is top notch! From the decor, photo ops, and the beautiful and talented fire dancer this place is unbeatable! Dakota took such great care of us and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. She took her time, gave excellent recommendations and overall just the best service we have ever had! Tim welcomed us as we were seated and came by before we finished to ask about our experience which just took the service to the next level. You can tell that customer service and vibe are a top priority here. Did I mention the food was insanely good! We had the trio dip app, mango chicken, and snapper and it was all delicious. Some of the best food we have ever had. Cocktails and mocktails were out of this world! Really, I could go on and on. Highly, highly recommend Tulum! Best vibes, food, and service in Atlanta!“

“Everything was fire. Tacos, tortas, menudo, the bomb 👍👌👌🙌“

“Good food and good beverage, and good service 🤤🤤“

“This was my 9th time at Palo Santa and was the best it has ever been! I went with 2 people who had never been, so I was able to try some new dishes this time. ALL were super delicious and beautifully presented. The wait staff were fun, friendly, and knowledgeable about the dishes and inspiration behind them. Cocktails were soooooo tasty and nice and strong! The desserts were a nice ending to a fantastic meal! THE BEST panna cotta and chocolate lava cake I have ever had! All in all, this meal was the best I had ever experienced at Palo Santo! I am already looking forward to coming back in the next few months! And thank you to the management who added lights to the tables after my last review of them being too dark! It made a BIG difference! Do NOT hesitate to make a reservation here for any occasion!“

“The food was delicious and as authentic as it gets in Midtown Atlanta. I had un taco de lengua (tongue), taco de cabeza (beef head), and un taco al pastor (marinated pork). All very delicious and friendly service. Also a very reasonable price for the amount of meat in the tacos!“

“Today was our first time eating at Willie’s. We ate at the location on Woodward Parkway in Alpharetta, Georgia. It was very good. We both got the taco salad with ground beef and it was just it was so good. It was so very good. We both got guacamole on top of our taco salad. I wish we had gotten a separate order of guacamole because it was good. It was all very good. The managers name was Charlie. He was just a very nice man, a good manager, the people that work there seem to be very happy with their jobs, which I believe is important to the success of the restaurant. We are about 40 miles from our home so I’m not sure we will ever make it back here, but I’m going to look for a closer location because the food is just that good.“

“Muy rico hoy fui por primera vez a vez la verdad exelente servicio la comida mmm riquísima claro que boy a regresar 🥰🥰“

“The food was incredible. Very friendly service.“

“We discovered this restaurant on a whim and are so happy we visited. This is our new favorite spot. The food was a 100/10 and I'm not even kidding. The Costra is now my FAVORITE type of taco. Nick and his team's service was amazing. We appreciated his conversation, jokes, and overall hospitality-- to me, that is just as important as the food being good. It goes a long way and makes me want to recommend El Santo Gallo to all of my friends. The restaurant is cute and vibrant and the color scheme + decor is very inviting and appealing. I meant to leave this review a few weeks ago, but we ate here again today, and listen, the food and service was just as great as it was the first time-- so now we know they're consistent!

I'd give this place ten stars if I could.“

“We had such an amazing experience at Rreal Tacos! The food was incredible — full of flavor and perfectly made. But what truly made our visit special was our server Kim. She was so friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect the entire time. Her positive energy and genuine care for her guests really stood out. Kim made our dinner feel fun and effortless. If you visit Rreal Tacos, definitely ask for Kim — she’ll make your experience unforgettable!“

“Our Latinas in Media Atlanta event was a beautiful success thanks to everyone at El Ponce! Food is delicious and the service exceptional. Holiday decor is so cute! Highly recommend.“

“Had the best time at Emilio’s Atlanta! The energy was amazing, the music was on point, and the drinks were even better. Drake and Nick at the bar really made the night super personable, funny, and they know how to craft a perfect drink. You can tell they love what they do. Definitely one of my new favorite spots in the city I’ll be back soon!“

“I really love this location. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Rory is my personal burrito maker. He took his time and made my food with love. I would recommend this location to friends and family. I really enjoyed the Baja burrito with the tomatillo and Chipotle salsa.“

“Being from Texas, but now live outside Atlanta, we missed having Torchy’s available. We were excited that one arrived in Atlanta so go try it out! Let manager Daniel and his team show you!“

“First time going with my family and children and we loved it!!!! Delicious food. We will definitely go back.“

“Great tacos with friendly staff. Definitely impressed!!“
