39 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Atlanta

“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!“

“We came to Atlanta for a competition and decided to pop in and try some local restaurants Tin Lizzy Cantina. OMG the best guac fresh chips salsa and the steak Philly tacos the bomb. Not sure why their rating is lower but I know you can’t please everyone. I give them 10/10 OGG was our waitress so friendly, the down home atmosphere if you come to Atlanta and don’t come eat here. Everything was great. Thanks OGG for the great service we will definitely be back.“

“After a long day of visiting tourists sites, I was in much need of an adult beverage and some grub. Our son told us that we had to go to Superica so we jumped in the car and took off like Batman looking for a Midnight dance with Cat Woman. In minutes we were through the door and quickly seated. Even though we had a fairly large party our server Justin made sure that we felt like the only people in the crowded room. The house salsa here is so incredible that I begged on hands and knees that the bartender craft a cocktail using it as the base. After much arguing, debating and signing of waivers, the bartender I believe his name is DeBossie (forgive me for the sp) returned with the David Moon Special. It was spicy, salsay (making up words) and refreshing. It's not for everyone but if you're bold enough to take the road less traveled then I highly recommend it. After a couple of DMs and stuffed on some of the best Mexican food I've ever had, and I've dined in many Latino countries, Chef Kenny came over for a chat. My wife had to stop me from jumping over the table and giving him a deep long kiss for the feast that he provided us. My whole family left full, happy and feeling like we didn't just dine but had an amazing experience. As a plus, most of the waitresses are very easy on your eyes if you know what I mean. Highly Highly Highly Recommend dining here. And if you mention that I sent you and you order a David Moon Special then they will give you a free yes FREE glass of Aqua. Guaranteed.

“SHAY did an amazing job serving dozens of guests at the bar- despite the fact that she had no help. She and the 2 table servers deserve a raise. Management/ owner needs to wake up and hire more help though, and pitch in themselves. The bathrooms need attention as well. The food was good but took a while to come out because of not sufficient staffing.“

“The workers here are very welcoming. Customer Service goes a very long way. The manager Mr. B Todd is a great leader. It takes a good team and this is it. Continued blessings to this location. 🙏🏽“

“Very good atmosphere and the special burrito was excellent.“

“I love they nachos and the baja burritos ❤❤❤“

“The Briarcliff location is always pleasant and clean. The music is varied but ALWAYS good and tasteful . As I usually do…I get the steak Baja at the various locations I visit around the city…this location’s steak was seasoned perfectly. I appreciate good food…at some restaurants I leave disappointed, feeling like I’ve wasted my money. Definitely not the case here…The steak was banging!!!“

“Yesterday I received the best service from an establishment in a VERY long time when I visited this willys. The guy at the entrance with the long hair made my day. I almost didn't want to leave 😁😁 he was very professional and funny. I give it 5 stars all day“

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

“We ate here last night and had the absolute BEST waitress ever. I can’t remember her name but we took a picture. This girl went above and beyond. When we told her we were celebrating our anniversary she surprised us with a yummy dessert at the end of our meal. The food was so delicious and the drinks were strong like I asked!!! Amazing night and experience.“

“Kourtland was beyond amazing!! He’s such an asset and probably the best server I’ve ever had. He was attentive, knowledgeable, hilarious, kind, passionate and so much more. He deserves a raise and we will definitely be coming back just to see Kourtland.“

“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.“

“Great bartender and atmosphere was great“

“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.“

“Great service!! Love Ms Tracy!!“

“100% recommend you try Chuy’s It was my first time and I loved it!“

“We always love frequenting this restaurant. The staff is great and the food is even better.“

“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!“

“AB was an incredible server! Not only was the service incredible with great recommendations but he had such a fun personality. The food tasted amazing (love the triple dipper and the wicked margs). God is a woman and she was in this Chili's tonight.“

“The place was complete crazy but the manager Sarah was truly Grace under Pressure. Oh...the salsa is the best!“

“Incredible food with fresh ingredients, great customer service, timely responses. All around an excellent experience. 5 stars!“

“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!“

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

“Just left here and met the most amazing woman who made my day! Great customer service and will be back !“

“Taxco is my goto restaurant when visiting Atlanta. Centrally located, easy access, and sufficient parking. Nice chips and salsa provided when perusing the menu. Our party selected 4 meals with tacos, burrito, (ground beef), chicken quesadilla, and chicken fajitas. All food was tasty and hot. Leftovers for the fajitas. Server was attentive and thorough, including refills. I will return for my next trip to Atlanta.“

“Great food. Would dine out here daily if I could“

“I have been eating here for about 2 decades. I've eaten here even before they had this location when they used to serve out of a small window further down the street. I've never experienced any bad service here. They have even catered for our staff when I worked at Cascade Elementary school years ago.

This is my favorite spot in the city because they cook from the heart and the food is always seasoned well while served hot.“

“Kudos to the team at this Moe's!! I messed up and put the incorrect delivery date on a catering order. I needed the food delivered yesterday, but had today's date on the order. Fifteen minutes before my lunch and learn presentation was scheduled to begin (and the food hadn't arrived yet), I realized what I had done, drove to Moe's right away and asked if they could fulfill my taco bar order on the fly. They were a little surprised/shocked at first by my request, but they came through with flying colors! They prepped the taco bar with all the fixings and sides and utensils, etc. in TEN MINUTES!! What a team! A special thank you to Maria, who took charge and facilitated this generous feat. Thank you all!“

“Amazing options for food. I haven't been able to eat at Moe's in a long time because of my allergies. This restraunt went out of there way to find me something I could enjoy!“

“I popped into Pure Taqueria on a hot Tuesday afternoon, craving some yummy tacos and curious to see what all the buzz was about—especially since the patio is always packed.

I ordered the Skinny Love margarita and a fish taco. The margarita? So good. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and definitely the highlight of my visit. The fish taco, on the other hand, didn’t quite hit the mark for me—nothing terrible, just not memorable.

Overall, I’d come back for the vibes and the drinks, but I’m not rushing back for the food. Great spot if you're looking to sip something good and soak in the scene.“

“First timer. This food truck totally hit the spot for me!! I had the burrito bowl and it was everything and more! I honestly think their bowls are better than Chipotle. My bowl was prepared as advertised. The cooks inside the truck were friendly. The next time I have ample time during my break, I'm coming back for more!!“

“Staff was extremely kind and able to explain any questions asked did not have to wait long at all for food extremely tasteful very clean environment drinks never even got half empty unbelievably quick staff ???

Parking: Sometimes you get lucky and you get to Park very close sometimes you may have to walk very little

Kid-friendliness: Extremely kid friendly ?

Wheelchair accessibility: From what I observed it should be no problem whatsoever to be accessible“

“The pastor taco was delicious. The rice is dry but still good. Be prepared to order in Spanish or just point at the menu board. The cashier didn't want to speak English. I speak enough Spanish to order and converse but if you know how to say onion in English, you know the basics. I prefer to speak English but if my client is speaking the most popular language in the world and here in Atlanta, I'm going to speak it. I learn Spanish just for the few that pretend to no habla me lingua, y los otros que no entender realamente.“

“Great place to eat, nice service and polite customer service“

“We got Baja fresh today at the oddities expo in downtown Atlanta and it was so fresh tasting and so absolutely amazing. I was actually in shock. I cannot wait to eat it again but I don’t know why there’s a 3.9 but the food was unbelievable seriously unbelievable it was beyond fresh And actually the colors of all of the ingredients was really not to be believed and I cannot believe that I’m writing this about a nachos lunch!!!!!“
