“We fully enjoyed our lunch here!!! First impression in the door was this place is very clean, staff is friendly, and it smelled wonderful. Really quick service, delicious food. Great salsas, loved the salsas. Very reasonable prices and portions were generous. Definitely will be back. This place felt new or recently renovated and I wouldn’t count on old reviews to be accurate.“

“Our family goes to this Moe's location almost every weekend and have come to know the staff over the last few years. Their team is always friendly and they ensure our food and service are both excellent. The staff has very low turnover which is unusual for the restaurant business these days. I have always appreciated the quality and quantity of the food which is top notch. Our grandson is coming over this afternoon so we will be headed back again today. See you at Moe's!“

“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!“

“This was my first time here and I truly enjoyed it! Our server, Daniella was excellent! She helped with drink choices and food choices! (I tried the Rudolph). The atmosphere was very chilled! Love it! My family and I will definitely come back!“

“AMAZING flavor!!!! I’ll be back…maybe in an hour.“

“Muy buen servicio Thalia“

“The service is excellent. One of my key metrics that I always look for and it's not too serious but it's important to me is how long does it take them to bring out the chips and salsa, these guys bring it out within seconds of you sitting down like nussan I've ever seen.

The service is top notch. The food is excellent. A very broad spectrum menu and you can taste the freshness and the professionalism in the ingredients in the cooking.

Absolutely putting these guys on my Google maps as a favorite and I intend to take my next date there to woo her over with my exquisite taste in restaurants. Perhaps it will lead to marriage? 🥰😁“

“We asked our waiter, Eric, for his personal favorites, and Steak tlayuda was one of the dishes he recommended. I never thought skirt steak could taste this amazing. Fantastic dish, lovely presentation.“

“I had the pleasant experience of dining at the bar with Junior. He was friendly and attentive even while clearly being busy manning the bar alone and serving 4 parties while making drinks for the whole restaurant. The food came out quickly and was delicious. I’m Mexican so I would know. Delicious Tex mex made better by our bartender Junior. 10/10 would go back and sit at the bar to be serviced by him.“

“As a native of Houston, TX, I’m known to be a bit of a taco snob/critic. I passed by the place in route to Chipotle for lunch and happened to see this sign first. Let me say I absolutely loved everyday I had (2 taco lunch special). Incredibly personable staff. Very clean inside. I highly recommend this place.“

“One of my favorite restaurants. Prices are cheap, staff is welcoming, and it's BYOB. Al pastor is carved and 100% the way to go.

There's a popular place in NYC called LOS TACOS No.1, and what I got here was better in taste and half the price. 10/10.“

“I really like enjoyed the queso, guacamole and fish tacos! I prefer my tacos on a corn tortilla and maybe you can request it but I do like fish tacos on a flour tortilla which is why I chose to go with that one. The food was good. I would definitely go back. The service was great! There was a mess up with our order but they figured it out and were super friendly and helpful in the process.“

“With no reservations on a Valentines day weekend, my wife and I ended up at the bar of Casa Balam in Decatur. Where the Ted's Montana grill used to be. They did have a planned menu but with options. Great drinks ( a good alternative to the espresso martinis) and the the bartenders gave us great service. Definitely going back to experience their whole menu.“

the food was served piping hot and presented beautifully. I wish I lived closer - I ended up in the area by chance. but I'll be back!“

“Eating at Mezcalitos in Decatur is a consistent experience in excellence for us. The food quality of the guacamole, the yuca fries, the tofu tacos, the goat cheese salads etc. is amazing. Eliza, with personality plus and super efficiency, serves up the best mojitos and other offerings. Thank you. The ambiance is so festive comfortable and neighborly which makes the place a constant that draws you back to the restaurant for more of all the above. We love the place. Suggest you try this gem if you have not already discovered this treasure ✨️ /Olivia 🌻📚“

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

“This place is beautiful. From the time we walked in to the time we sadly had to leave it was an incredible experience.
Our server Austin was on top of every dish and specialty items featured on the menu. Everything he suggested or recommended was filled with flavor and made you second guess why you didn't come in sooner. I threw my fork twice because the food was THAT good.
If you're ever in the area or not, its definitely worth the drive!“

“This is really good authentic Mexican food, all the ingredients taste fresh, i order for the first round , a veggie taco and rice, second round I ordered a veggie burrito. And once you bite into it you can taste the culture. Very good, located inside the laundromat on spring rd, surrounded by plenty shopping.“

“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 !“

“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.“

“We were a party of 8. The food was delicious. We all ordered something different and everyone was happy. Fresh made chips were amazing. The best part was our server Chris. He was accommodating and made our evening very special. I have never written a review before but thought so highly of the hospitality that I had too.“

“Y’all it’s always busy at this location, the wait be so long every time but it’s soooo worth it. The food is too good. And once we actually sat down we got everything really fast. We got the taco platter with chicken, beef, tempura fish and shrimp and every single one was delicious. Shaila was the sweetest server. I’m So Full. So happy. Will be back.“

“Amazing little truck! My bf and I were waiting for a spot at another taco spot down the street and happened to go here instead. I love how they make their tortilla! We got asada, chorizo, and shrimp and they were all amazing! Y’all have to come here!“

“Palo Santo is a true gem in Atlanta. The food was absolutely amazing,beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. Every dish we tried impressed us. The service was just as great: friendly, attentive, and welcoming without being overbearing, which made the whole experience even better.
One small tip for future guests: I highly recommend taking an Uber or Lyft, as parking in the area is very limited. Other than that, everything about this place was fantastic, and I can’t wait to come back.“

“Superbowl 2026 was awesome at Emilio's! Seating was easy & convenient with a great view. The food was delicious! I had a steak fajita that was super filling and enough for tomorrow's lunch. Brandon is an amazing server!!! He was friendly, attentive, made excellent suggestions from the menu. I had visited before and had an awful experience with the food. This time, Brandon helped me to be a renewed customer with my newly found menu favorites! The peach mocktail was one of my favorite drinks! Delicious! The queso, guacamole, and fajitas were EVERYTHING!
One of the managers, Jen, stopped by. I requested to see her to tell her my experience and the major improvement in the service and food. It was terrific! Highly recommended, especially on Friday nights....ask for Brandon!!! He will be sure to take care of you while dining at Emilio's.“

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