The food is amazing and so are the people running the restaurant. Our food was out quick and everything was so fresh and made with love. Hector came over while we ate to chat with us a little and it was the best customer service I've ever had in my 19 years of life. I will definitely be back and I encourage more people to visit this restaurant.“

“I was quite surprised (in a good way) when I walked in the door and immediately felt like I’d walked in to a Disney resort.

The murals, alone, were worth going there for, but the service is also outstanding - I’ve been twice and each time the servers gave me excellent food recommendations so I could try something outside of my normal go-to’s.

The potions are enormous. I’m talking I had lunch and dinner the following day from my leftovers. The food quality is excellent and it’s so fast. Everyone was friendly and lovely. I will definitely go back and would recommend it to anyone in the area looking for excellent food or who loves walking in to places that surprise you with how they look inside.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: I don’t see any accessibility issues.“

Taqueria Regis Mexican • $

“I visited Taqueria Regis in Dalton, GA, today, and I’m so glad I did! Located right across from the Pilot truck stop, this place is a hidden gem for truck drivers like me.

The staff were incredibly friendly, and I ordered tacos de carne asada (steak tacos) and tacos de pollo (chicken tacos). They were absolutely¡deliciosos! (delicious!) The freshness of the ingredients really made a difference, and I could tell they care about what they serve.

I would love to see more restaurants like Taqueria Regis at truck stops because having healthier options is better for our bodies. My stepmom is Spanish, and I truly appreciate authentic Hispanic cuisine.

So, if you’re in Dalton, ¡no te lo pierdas! (don’t miss it!) Support this fantastic local restaurant ❤️they really deserve more business. Thank you, Taqueria Regis, for a wonderful meal today!“

Asada Steak Tortas

“For years, my family has sung the praises of this unassuming corner supermarket and taqueria in Dalton, GA, a town known as a mecca for taquerias. Stepping into this taqueria feels like being transported to a vintage Mexican eatery. The interior boasts earthy tones with bold, vibrant colors as accents, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly sets the stage for an authentic dining experience.

The menu, a massive banner proudly displayed on the wall, showcases a variety of traditional Mexican dishes, each one a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Mexico. On this visit, I opted for the gorditas and tacos, and I was not disappointed. Every bite reflected the care and pride that goes into their preparation. The tortillas, handmade by warm, motherly women who seem to pour love into every press of the dough, are a highlight—fresh, soft, and the perfect foundation for the flavorful fillings.
The gorditas were plump, perfectly cooked, and bursting with authentic flavors, while the tacos were hot, fresh, and packed with ingredients that tasted like they were straight from a Mexican abuela’s kitchen. Each dish is made to order, ensuring that every plate arrives steaming and delicious. The attention to detail and commitment to tradition make this taqueria stand out in a town filled with competition.

Dalton may be brimming with taquerias, but this spot rises above the rest as a true gem. For anyone craving authentic Mexican food served with heart and soul, this taqueria is a must-visit. I wholeheartedly recommend it!“

“Got some tacos. They were okay. Not as good as what I’ve had closer to where I live, but probably the best in this area. I’d try other things from here if I came back, but not the tacos.Saw a cockroach crawling around near the pots, but I still ate the food. I see a bug or two in my kitchen sometimes, but I still eat. Just trying to get the point across to not be turned off by this place if you choose to eat inside. I think it is cute and would recommend it to others. Just appreciate it for what it is and eat the food!I loved listening to the ladies talk while they cooked my food. Very sweet people.“

“The food at El Sueno is great and I recommend the restaurant for that alone. When we first started going there the service was excellent and that along with the great food made going there an enjoyable experience. Now, the service pretty much sucks. Tonight, August 17, 2023, my husband and I went there to eat. Not sure what our servers name was but he was the tall guy with a beard. It took me telling him 3 times what I wanted to drink, Dr. Pepper, before he got it right on the order. Then when we finally got our drinks he couldn't remember if I had Dr. Pepper or Coke and couldn't remember what he had put in the glass. We didn't get our chips & salsa and drinks until we got our meals. I was pleased with the food itself but the salsa was not as good as it normally is. We will go back, however, if the service isn't any better then we will take our business elsewhere.“

The salsa had a nice kick to it and the chips were so warm and fresh!! The food was super fresh and steaming hot. It was a nice outing with some delicious food! The waiter was the only one on the floor, but he worked diligently with a wonderful attitude. I even took food to go and they waited to bring it out when I was done and it was fresh too! I love this cute little spot. It’s perfect for some good Mexican food!“
