50 Best Taco Restaurants near Sandy Springs

“What a gem. I've lived in Sandy Springs for years and cannot believe I've never been here! I stumbled upon this permanent taco truck by chance and will certainly return frequently. Delicious street tacos for extremely reasonable prices. They've got outdoor seating or you can take to go. 10/10 recommend.“

“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!“

“El Azteca exceeded all our expectations.
The buffet is incredibly authentic, every dish was rich in flavor, fresh, and tasted like true homemade Mexican food. You can tell they take pride in what they serve.

Christian provided exceptional service. Even when the restaurant was busy, he remained attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. That level of consistency and care is rare and made our experience even better.

Without a doubt, El Azteca stands out as one of the absolute best Mexican buffets in the Atlanta perimeter area. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for real, authentic Mexican food.“

“El mejor taco caribeño, primera vez que lo trato y fue súper bueno. La comida súper buena y el personal súper activo y muy amable . Ustedes todos son súper“

“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!“

“Having lived in San Antonio for a formative number of adult years, I truly believe I can spot an authentic “hole in the wall” pretty well. This taqueria is out of a gas station- but honestly, that’s where the best ones are sometimes! (I’m looking at you, NFA Burger, and you, Baba’s Gyro & Kabob).

The tacos here are as legit and authentic as they can get without being across the border- and if you love a true Mexican taco, they will serve it up perfectly with hot sauce, tomatillo, and of course plenty of cilantro y onions!! Honestly I can’t wait to go back again.

My only qualm isn’t with the store itself- it’s just the damage inflation has done. The tacos are currently (May 2026) around $4 per taco, which is CRAZY compared to my $1.25 I’d get in 2021- but again, that’s the economy, not the store. They’re absolutely worth that price; and super filling!

Also, to the (I presume owner) if you read this, I’m the gringa you asked the other day about how I found the shop- it was via Google, and I hope this review helps another lost soul find their taco craving satiated!“

“Tacos and service was great. We sat on the patio because it was very busy, it was a very hot day and it was very cramped, making it even more hot. It was very loud even on the patio. I typically like a more quiet environment, but the tacos were very good, so will just go back at a less busy time. They will validate your parking ticket from the parking garage, so that was a nice bonus.“

“Perfect spot for a casual Tex Mex meal. Tacos were spot-on: flavorful fillings, soft tortillas, and great toppings. Quick service, spacious vibe, and solid portions. The margaritas were strong, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. They’ve got a large patio seating as well. Definitely coming back!“

“The meal was fantastic. I ordered the beef enchilada, and my husband enjoyed the nachos with beef, chicken, and shrimp—they were excellent. I want to give a special shout-out to our server, Alex; he was incredible—above and beyond—and I rated him a perfect 10 out of 10. Overall, the experience was wonderful, and yes, we’ll definitely return. We’ll be hoping to see you again, Alex!“

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

“They have the most delicious food for such a great price!!

Edit 9/20/19: Extremely disappointed with the price. The food is still good but the price double. Unbelievable. Not worth the price for the food. Huarache use to be $2.50 now it's $5 . Not worth it!!!!“

“Have been ordering food from here for a few years. Ordered recently 2 heart taco platters. Loved it. The choices were simple & they tasted great. Even had them ready on time for our evening get together. Always recommend this place, thanks.“

“Very nice food enjoy.good“

“everything about my meal was fantastic.. mango margarita.. delicious..carne asada, Korean cowboy, and barbacoa brisket tacos.. amazing. I could have eaten their freshly made salsa all day.“

“I saw this on TikTok and I had to come. I saved it for a later time and when I was in the area, I went ahead and came by. I was not disappointed the strawberry and lime drink was awesome.
Had two tacos of El Pastor, which is your signature taco that sells the most it was great best tasting one I’ve tasted so far the Carne Asada was not so good.
There was plenty of TVs the outside atmosphere is awesome. It’s a nice little area next to a 76 gas station next to a Walgreens love the area. I’m sure this is popping during the weekend.“

“Love this place! It's a little spot, hidden in the Battery/Cumberland mall area. I have been lookin for authentic street tacos in this area that would not break the bank. Not only do they have authentic tacos at a great price, but they also have a great menu with a ton of other options. If you are in the area and tired of burgers, hit this spot!“

“hands down the best street tacos I've ever had. followed up with naked nachos 🔥 seasoned to perfection. and the owners were great!! thanks guys for exceeding expectations!“

“First time there, love it, would definitely go again“

“I had an amazing experience here with my family. Cash and Sisi took care of us & they did not disappoint. The food was amazing and they were extremely nice to us! As long as they are here, I will continue to patronize this business!

The guacamole was my fav and my sis loved her rotisserie chicken taco. I had the chicken tikka bowl and that was amazing. Everything was delicious and it’s all scratch made!!!“

“Had food from them at family’s pre-wedding dinner and when I tell you these were the best tacos I may have ever had, it’s no exaggeration. Their guac? To die for. Proteins, seasoned to perfection. Elotes, chef’s kiss. My mouth’s watering thinking of their food. They absolutely know how to do their thing and do it *well*. Will definitely look for their truck when I’m in the Atlanta area.“

“Best tacos in Sandy Springs and I would go as far to say in the metro area. Their prices are phenomenal. The portions are fair. The employees are so kind and go the extra mile. Last night, they called me twice- once to tell me they were out of an item then another time to apologize for giving me a cheese tamale rather than a chicken tamale. I’ve never seen a business go out of their way to inform a customer of a mistake. It’s stuff like this that makes me love this place. Don’t waste your time on overpriced sit down restaurants. Do yourself a favor and visit them today!

Oh and order the al pastor tacos and tamale. ❤️“

“The most amazing tacos and quesadillas I’ve ever had ! I ordered lunch and enough to take home for dinner . The food was amazing . The servings were absolutely above standard and the service was so fast ! We will definitely be ordering them as much as possible !“

“Servicio rápido y muy buena comida. Lo recomiendo!“

“The CEO burger was really good. Fries were OK. The bartender made excellent drinks, and was friendly. I visited mid afternoon on a Sunday, so it was quiet (which I like but to each their own). Would love to have this place as my go to spot if I lived here.“

“Whoever is back there cooking needs they feet rubbed everynight, this food is so delicious 😋 😩 burritos 10000/10 tacos 10000/10 this is what I would call authentic food. My son and I split a burrito and I wanted to go back for another one. Its also so affordable. If I could eat this everyday I would 😩“

“The service was so fast, even on a busy Friday night. Food quality is always excellent. The duck tacos are an absolute favorite. You won't regret coming here.“

“Great food, fun atmosphere and great service.“

“Great tacos at the Politan!“

“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.“

“Also, dog friendly patio🐶♥️“

“Stopped in just now & had to leave a review. The breakfast burrito with Huevos, chorizo, papas & beans/cheese is bussin bussin frfr! And the sauce, brah.. you won’t be disappointed. Amazing service!“

“I’ve been coming here every week for the past year and I still get excited every time. The food is consistent, flavorful, and comforting. The vibes are always top-tier, The staff are always so welcoming, Always smiling and always remembering little details. This place doesn’t just serve Mexican food — it serves community.“

“While in GA for baseball, we stopped here by chance. We were NOT disappointed. The staff is all very friendly and informative, answering all of our questions for recommendations. The food is great. We ended up going back a second time. HOGHLY recommend stopping by!“

“Awesome service and delicious food 🥰“

“Great food, excellent price point. Fresh food“

“This was my first time at Hobnob and it was absolutely delicious. Christina was our waiter and she was outstanding. She recommended great menu items. I had the Boneless braised ribs and that melts in your mouth. Great experience. Ask for Christina. She took great care of my wife and I.“

“I love the non traditional tacos like fried catfish. They also serve gulf shrimp which can be challenging to locate in Metro Atlanta. Which you can also have in a 🌮. Freshly made corn or flour to choose from. It was yummy!“

“Also, dog friendly patio🐶♥️“

“muy deliciosos antojitos mexicanos taco ,torta, pupusas,sopes Gorditas, huaraches,taco dorado,molote, quesadillas“

“Marcus and his staff are very nice. They know how to handle business even when they are packed. Overall it’s a nice establishment with nice ppl and great customer service.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Tried one of their specialty drinks for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. It had a unique flavor without being overwhelming. The employee who recommended it clearly knew the menu well and helped me choose something I genuinely enjoyed.“

“these are some of the best tacos in Roswell! everyone needs to check out their carnitas and birria tacos. the staff are friendly and very kind. the salsas are delicious!“

“Yummmmy!!!! Only one in Ga. Shrimp burritos…..tacos galore Chronic Tacos in Alpharetta….😊🫶🏼😊“

“Staff were nice and the food is good! Prices very reasonable. Really enjoyed the agua fresca, serving was much larger than anticipated.
Langua taco was very good. Al pastor wasn't my favorite, but was pretty good, which is the main reason for losing a star for me (as al pastor is a go-to). IMO the quesadilla could have more cheese, but that's a personal preference.“

“This place is amazing the hostess is beyond great and uplifting I went there to have a good time and that’s what they show us ..line dance night is amazing they are non judgmental and very motivational when you miss a step you feel like you hanging out with family and friends instead of strangers“

“Great tacos at the Politan!“

“Found you at the farmers market! The besttttt and freshest seafood beyond anything you can find locally. Please please open a storefront!“
