Found a fantastic, super-versatile spot in Mami Taco! This is the kind of place you can keep in your back pocket for almost any occasion. The vibe is lively enough to feel fun, but it's not so loud that you can't have a real conversation, which makes it great for a date or a family get-together. We went with a huge group and felt right at home. The best part? The service. From the second we walked in, everyone was incredibly friendly and attentive.

Let’s talk about the food. You HAVE to start with the chips and guac. The guacamole was so fresh and had a perfect little kick to it, and the chips were nice and crunchy. All our main dishes came out looking beautiful, like they were styled for a photoshoot, which is always a good sign! The only small critique is that the mashed potatoes were a bit hard, but that was a minor thing in an otherwise delicious meal.

Just a heads-up for larger parties: we were a group of 10+ and all wanted to split the checks, so it took a little while to get everything sorted at the end. Totally understandable and the staff handled it well, but just something to be aware of if you're in a hurry. Overall, I highly recommend this place for great food and even better service!

Final Take: Dame good

We have been loyal customers here for nearly three years, visiting almost every week and recommending this restaurant to countless friends and family. Until now, we’ve never had a single complaint. The service, food, and management have always been outstanding.

Unfortunately, our visit today was a complete shock, and it pains me to write this negative review. We were told the kitchen was a bit behind due to new staff, and we said we didn’t mind waiting as long as the food was good. After waiting for over 45 minutes, what finally came out was unlike anything we’ve ever experienced here. The quality was night and day compared to what we’ve grown to love.
• The tortabirria we’ve ordered many times came out on a hot dog bun cut in half, topped with lettuce and tomatoes—completely unrecognizable. It should NOT have tomatoes and lettuce!
• The steak street tacos, which originally made us fall in love with this place, were bland, chewy, and flavorless.
• We traded the tortabirria for mole enchiladas (a dish we’ve always enjoyed), but the tortillas were dry as the desert and the mole sauce was overly bitter.
• To top it off, my garden taco, which should have been vegetarian, came with meat inside!

Thankfully, the margaritas and service were still amazing. Our waiter did everything he could and was kind and attentive throughout. I actually felt bad for the servers, because it’s clear they’re having to carry the weight of the kitchen’s mistakes. But while the service was wonderful, the food itself was extremely terrible.

The most disappointing part was that no manager came by to check on us or the other tables. In the past, management has always been attentive and proactive. This time, there was no sign of accountability. This was such a shame.

I left feeling so sad and disappointed. We don’t plan to return for a while, but we truly hope things improve. It would be such a shame to lose what has always been our favorite restaurant, especially since we’ve tried so many Mexican restaurants in and around Atlanta and none compare.

This was our first time at MamiTaco. I pass it every day going to work and always say I want to stop in sometime. My birthday was a couple days ago and I didn’t get to celebrate during the week so we decided to wait til the weekend so I figured why not try it out? We got there around 2:30 and it wasn’t busy so we were sat immediately. Our waiter was really nice and attentive. Everything on the menu sounded good so I had a hard time deciding 😂 I ended up getting the Quesabirria plate. It came with three quesabirria tacos, rice, beans, and consommé. The tacos were packed full and honestly I could have gotten the plate of two instead of three (I gave one to my husband) the meat was so tender and everything was very flavorful. I also got the Mexican street corn. It comes in a bowl, not on the cob. The picture was taken after I had already mixed it up but the mayo and cheese and stuff was all on top. It was really good and refreshing as well. I left my meal the fullest I have felt in a long time and the amount of food for the money was definitely worth it. My husband got the Birria Burrito and he felt the same way. My mom got the Mango Salmon with mashed potatoes and she said everything was seasoned very well and cooked perfectly. We will definitely be back.

Walked in at 6pm on a Saturday. I will say that they were pretty busy. My family was seated while I moved our car. I joined them a few minutes later, after they had been seated. There were chips and salsa on the table when I arrived. After about 10 or so minutes (enough time to read the menu, drink menu, specials and have some chips), we still hadn’t seen a server. We watched a table get seated near us, they moved tables and then a server greeted them with chips and salsa, waters and took the appetizer order for them. After a few more minutes , no one had returned to our table so we decided to leave. Someone spoke to us on our way out, we explained why we were leaving and she rolled her eyes with a dismissive Sorry… We won’t be back.

Waited for 10-15 minutes with no one coming over to take our drink order meanwhile the table next to us, seated well after we were, got waters delivered and orders taken immediately after they say down. No shortage of employees in the restaurant. Hostess was rude and shrugged when I said why we were leaving. We won't be back!
