    This place has the best Mexican by far. A little out of the way but totally worth the drive! Always has a fantastic serving crew!

    Worst food I've had in a long time. Meat tasted old, fries were refried. Awful. My husband's Chile reano cheese wasn't even melted.

    We recently ate here for supper one evening during the week (Wednesday.) As we were seated we…read morenoticed a large menu. We simply went with Texas fajitas! It was quickly prepared and brought to the table. As it was delivered along with the toppings, rice and beans we began to notice the myriads of flys that were bombarding our plates! They were relentless. Landing constantly on our food. The fajitas were ok. The onions and peppers were cut quite small. And there were plenty on the plate. Our server never returned to the table to check on us. We asked another server for a container to take the leftover home. She said ok but never returned with the container. Finally the original server brought the container and the check. I wouldn't go back because of the flys and the service. The food was ok but could use a little finesse. The ambiance was nothing to really comment about. The staff could take some lessons on politeness and customer service. We don't live there so we will not return.

    An excellent little store and food counter in Lavonia!…read more They have the best tacos I've had in the area (and the al pastor tacos are as good as I've ever had). Bonus? Most of the tacos (with doubled soft corn shells) are only $1.50! My kids love the chicken quesadillas ($8). The green sauce that comes with it (in a container) is just the right flavor/spice (they also have limes with them and garnish with radishes... it works!). Another bonus? They sell the premixed al pastor by the pound (along with other meats). We bought a few pounds yesterday for taco night (on a Monday). It was excellent. The selection of tacos, burritos, etc. is really good (including guts and tongue; there's a photo of the menu here on Yelp). No fish, vegetarian, or vegan, though. The store has exactly the kinds of things you'd hope for. The last bonus? The service is friendly and efficient. I go there every Sunday. I've never seen it empty and it caters to all our local folks with joy. Keep it up Los Gomez and God bless you!

The food is the best that I have had as far as authentic Mexican food. Did I mention cheap? Tacos are only $1.50 each! This is cheaper than Taco Bell and this is actually real food! They have fresh cut meats like chicken,beef and pork. They have real pork skins that they fry up. Us southerners love those. They have a huge selection of Mexican goods to be a small Mexican store. If it's authentic that your looking for then definitely stop by here.

    If you're looking for authentic Mexican food in Athens, Tlaloc El Mexicano Restaurant should be at…read morethe top of your list. From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place is a local favorite. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the menu offers a great selection of traditional Mexican dishes, along with a few Salvadoran influences that make it even more unique. One of the highlights of the evening was meeting the owner, Antonio Ramirez. Throughout the meal, he made his way around the restaurant, stopping at each table with a smile to ask how everything was and to make sure guests were enjoying themselves. That level of personal attention is becoming increasingly rare and speaks volumes about how much he cares about both the food and the customer experience. It's also obvious that the local college crowd has discovered this gem. There were plenty of students enjoying dinner, and it seemed like the margaritas were especially popular--particularly when Mom and Dad were picking up the tab! Fortunately, the margaritas are well worth it, with generous pours and plenty of options to choose from. The food was excellent, the portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Most importantly, the flavors felt authentic and homemade rather than the typical chain restaurant version of Mexican food.
