    Asada & fish taco
    Jade C.

    To my CA natives try this place out! I got an asada taco, and a fish taco. Both tacos were very tasty. The fish taco is a bit pricier, but is well worth it. They aren't stingy with the fish. I can't put my finger on what kind of fish they're using. It's no Cholita Linda (Oakland), but it gets the job done. I wasn't a huge fan of the slaw, because the flavor was very mild. No dry limes here! Thank goodness lol. Everything seemed fresh. When I went there was no line. The service was just fine, and the atmosphere was very clean. Seating is kind of limited, plenty of parking offered. Do not sleep on this place, definitely will be returning.

    Before venturing to the Renaissance Festival down the street, our group stopped by here for a quick lunch on a whim. It's a quick counter order place in a gas station strip, but the tacos were authentic and everything was tasty. Tacos come on small corn tortillas and they offer a four taco plate or you can get a two taco combo with rice and beans. The beans were white beans versus the typical red or black, but they were super tasty. Tacos are simple with your choice of protein, and topped with salsa, onions, and cilantro. Simple, but very effective. They offer a few burrito sizes but the equivalent of a medium was huge!! Super loaded and could easily have been shared by two people. Their loaded nachos were also loaded with heaps of avocado, jalapeños, and other fresh toppings. I also appreciate their efforts to minimize their plastic use by using paper straws, however, they still had individually wrapped plastic utensils, disposable plates, and foam cups. Hopefully they take a few more steps and start using reusable plates, paper cups, and at least plastic utensils not wrapped in more plastic.

    This is one of the times that's rare that I thought Yelp gave more praise. Checked out La Costa Tacos & Mariscos. It was ok. I really love mexican food. I thought this place was average. The tacos and burritos that I ordered had a bland taste to it. no Flavor to it. I may have to try again because i want to trust the other yelp reviewers. I'm simply not seeing it for what it is. Good people but maybe the wrong chef that day or something. Grade: C

    Two asada tacos and one al pastor

    Man, I really wanted this place to be good. I was so excited to see that there was an authentic Mexican restaurant near my job. I tried to go on a Monday and failed to realize that they were closed. I returned on a Wednesday full of excitement to try the tacos. I saw the prices online and loved how affordable the tacos were. The inside of the establishment is super nice and clean. When you enter, you walk up to the counter to order and they'll call out your ticket number for you to pick up. I ordered two asada tacos and one al pastor taco to-go. The food didn't take long to be prepared, so I was in and out in fifteen minutes. When I got back to my job, the tacos were still warm. The tacos, however, seemed to lack flavor. They were just very lackluster; even with the salsa on top. I was truly disappointed. I am planning to return, however, since people have raved about this place. I just hope the food will be better the next time around.

    First time at this place, the workers were phenomenal considering it was so close to closing time I was still welcomed with great customer service!! The tacos were great!!

    I really wanted to love this place since I'm a taco fanatic but LA Costa Tacos y Maricos missed the mark for me. I ordered a couple of the carne asada, pollo, y pescado tacos (steak, chicken, and fish). Unfortunately all of them were tasteless...every single one. They were traditionally prepared in a soft corn tortilla and topped with onion and cilantro. Pickled carrots and radishes were included also. Salsa and lime wedges were served on the side and were the only thing that gave the tacos any hint of flavor. I gave them an extra 2 stars because the tacos were piled high with meat and toppings and the customer service here was great. The restaurant serves tacos, quesadillas, burritos, tostadas, tortas, nachos, and menudo on the weekends. For any entree you have the choice of 7 different meats including al pastor (pork), pollo (chicken), lengua (beef tongue), cabeza (beef head), asada (steak), pescado (fish), and camaron (shrimp). They also have a secret menu online. At this time they're open from 10:30am until 7pm, offering both dine in (with social distancing) and carryout.

    Steak tacos were pretty good. I like the sweet sauce that comes with it; not really sure if it's salsa but whatever it is, it's good. Cool little place to order take out.

    Carne asada and chicken tacos. $1.50

    Good little neighborhood Mexican spot. The tacos remind me of the authentic tacos of Cali. I came for the first time and had the chicken and carne asada regular tacos. One of the reviews said that the chicken has a cinnamon taste to it and I was confused about this but it actually does work lol. Definitely a unique flavor that I've never had before. As far as the carne asada taco...it's not like the carne asada I'm used to in Cali. It lacked flavor and the meat wasn't as tender as it should be. But I added some salt and some of the green sauce they give you and it was decent. I will definitely be back for the tacos. You can't beat $1.50 for a taco (even though they are small). If you live close by it is a good and cheap food option. I just wish they had more non pork options. They have a couple other beef options but I'm not sure how I feel about cow head and cow tongue, I'll definitely pass on those two.

    I found this place via my college friend who posted a picture of tacos from there in their Instagram and right away I knew it was the authentic Mexican food I've been looking for. It's super affordable to. I ended up getting 8 tacos (2-carnitas, 2- asada, 2-fish, 2-chicken) and rice and beans and it cost me $24. Best $24 I've spent in a long time! The fish tacos were stuffed with fresh lightly battered fish and the sauce on them was amazing. Adding the squeeze of the added lime sent it over the top. It was legit a flavor explosion. You also can tell this place must be legit the moment you pull up because there's a constant line. It's so delicious and I will be a regular customer. To date, I have yet to find something this authentic in Atlanta and I've lived here since 2009.

    Steak taco and al pastor tacos. Both were so good. $2 per taco is a great deal!

    Found this little spot in Fairburn. I work in union city so it was a close 10 minute drive. I got the tacos and they were so good. Will definitely come back

    Ok, this review is 5 stars to try to address what I think is an undeserved 3 star overall rating…read more Los Mariachis serves excellent, authentic Mexican food along with excellent Tex-Mex. I lived in the north Dallas area for 39 years and have visited the gambit of outstanding Mexican restaurants before moving to Florida and experiencing the epitome of mediocre or just plain bad. We come to Fairburn once a year at most for the Florida Renaissance Festival. This is our go-to restaurant for dinner from the day we arrive until our final evening here. I haven't had a single menu item that I've been disappointed with to-date. I've had fajitas, enchiladas, and authentic Mexican. The music on weekend evenings is loud. You need to arrive early or be prepared to wait for a table. Seating is perhaps a bit limited for how many people I've seen waiting for their seats. The 22 oz margaritas hit the spot after an 8-hour drive and check-in to the hotel next door. I can recommend the tableside guacamole for starters and the chicken poblano as a meal if you love authentic Mexican food.

Our server, Joey, really stood out. He took the time to educate us on the drinks, had a great personality, and made the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable. We even got into some good conversation--he mentioned he's originally from Oklahoma--which added a nice personal touch. The drinks were phenomenal. They were strong, well-balanced, and refreshing. I had the horchata, and the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh. I also tried a classic margarita with tajín on the rim--it was strong in a good way and very refreshing. Definitely one of the highlights of the visit. The food itself was flavorful and well-seasoned. I ordered the steak and lobster with mashed potatoes. Everything tasted great, and you can tell they put care into the preparation. The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is due to a couple of issues. I asked for my steak medium, but it came out well done, and there was a hair in my mashed potatoes. That said, the way the staff handled it really impressed me. They were extremely apologetic and quickly replaced my entire meal without hesitation. The second steak actually came out even better than the first. Mistakes happen, and what really matters is how a restaurant responds--and they handled it very well. Overall, a great experience, and I would definitely come back.
