Hanging out at my friend's place, we had a sudden hankering for some tacos on a Saturday night. Lucky for us, we just had to cross two major intersections and we were here before they closed (sorry, we were "those" people). Orders are placed at the register but there were a handful of tables too should you have time to dine-in. After much debate, we got a variety of items including Campesina tortas, tacos of course (carnitas, chorizo, pastor). Of course we took advanced of their complimentary toppings and sauces! Some were spicy, creamy, and tangy. Perfect to individualize each bite. The torta was well stuffed and prepared. I liked how soft the bread was and the many options for fillings. Of the tacos I tried, they were all delicious. Overall, I love hole-in-the-wall places and this restaurant can be added to my favorites. Prices are very fair and quality and here. Plus all the assortment of sauces? It has everything I could ask for so I will definitely come again and recommend others to do the same! read more

What difference in just a few months. I ate here about a year ago and was very disappointed. Big improvement this time. Las Tortes Locas had been recommended to me by a friend who has enjoyed a different location. This location was crowded and uncomfortable. It was noisy and hard to be heard. I didn't enjoy my lunch. The only redemption of the fist visit was the horchata which was authentic and I enjoyed very much. This visit was much better. They have expanded their seating area and can now accommodate 3 or 4 times the crowd. They now have room for a salsa and condiment bar that lets you customize your plate. The Air conditioning is comfortable and the atmosphere great. If you come in here as an English only speaker, which I am, expect some communication issues. They don't speak English. You are not their target customer, the local Hispanic community is. They will work with you just take your time and don't expect everyone to speak English. This is their restaurant and you (as an English only speaker) are the visitor. I ordered the Burrito Loco lunch special for $9.89. It was very good. It came with rice and beans. The rice and beans were average but the burrito filling was well seasoned and enjoyable. Given my last visit and the overall price of goods I can go 4 stars but not 5. Still a solid 5 and I will come back. Give it a try. If you are from Latin America and need a break where people speak your language it's great. If you are an Anglo but ready for a bit of diversity in your life you will like it too. read more

Las Tortas Locas - Burrito Loco. $9.89 - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This place is just amazing and never disappoints!! A full salsa bar, an extensive taco and torta selection and all really well priced for the flavors you are able to get My favorite are the Al pastor- get the pineapple add on!! And chorizo. The steak is also pretty good. I personally do not like the lingua version. The Tortas are great too but laden with butter so I prefer their tacos at all times. Check this out before the place becomes too famous! read more

Las Tortas Locas is a chain of nine fast-casual restaurants in Metro-Atlanta featuring quality Mexican food. BuHi features two in Atlanta (near Clairmont Road) and in Chamblee. It has a nice seating area and many patrons dine in. There is a great salsa/condiment bar in the center of the restaurant for people with varying taste buds, although it is mostly catered to heat seekers. We ordered the Torta Mexicana, Carne Asada Taco, Taco Al Pastor, Chicken Burrito, and a Huracha. I personally recommend the tortas, as they are all savory and comforting. The roll was toasted and tasty on its own, and there was an appropriate amount of meats, vegetables, chihuahua cheese, and avocado. I am not a fan of avocado or onions not grilled to death, but both added value to the torta. I also love creamy white cheese. The torta is flavorful without a trip to the salsa bar. The tacos were good, but in my opinion, they were standard fare for BuHi. I ordered the Taco Al Pastor with white cheese, which didn't add to the overall flavor in the way that it did for the torta. I found the burrito lacking in depth of flavor and probably would not personally order it again. I appreciate the burrito's wrapping, which makes it easy to be hand held and enjoyed without minimal mess. The huracha had the perfect amount of sweetness, and I highly recommend it to combat the heat level of the salsa bar. I am looking forward to trying more of the tortas, including the Toluqueña and Norteña. read more

What makes good COVID-19 pandemic takeout food? Tortas. They pack and travel well, and they're tasty to boot. Las Tortas Locas gets a solid four stars out of me. This is a local Mexican restaurant chain specializing in tortas (Mexican sandwiches) that are consistently delicious. They serve other Mexican food too like tacos, burritos, and quesadillas. The portions are filling, the prices are affordable, and orders (made fresh to order) are served up reasonably quick. At the time of writing this review, there are nine Las Tortas Locas locations in metro Atlanta. This is location #11 (I believe locations #5 and #9 closed). You can find it on Buford Highway in "Buford Highway Plaza," the small little strip mall with Lee's Bakery, Com Vietnamese Grill Restaurant, Mi Pueblo Latin supermarket, and a Chevron gas station. It opened in early 2015 and replaced El Senor Taco (https://bit.ly/2wb1LED), a small taco shop I was a fan of. This is a worthy successor. There's another Las Tortas Locas location that's part of the Buford Highway corridor just a couple miles up the road in Chamblee: Las Tortas Locas #3 on Chamblee Tucker Road at Buford Highway (https://bit.ly/3bJtZp8). I've eaten at a few Las Tortas Locas locations now and can say I'm a fan. These restaurants aren't very big, but not tiny either. I guesstimate this location can seat about 30-40 customers at a mixture of tables and booths with a couple mounted TVs for everyone's viewing pleasure. The setup is fast-casual with digital menu displays and an open kitchen. During my visit to pick up dinner last week, the kitchen had a trompo with a healthy amount of fresh, delicious-looking al pastor meat (rotating spit-grilled marinated pork). It looked mouthwatering. There's a self-serve salsa bar and, if dining in, you bus your own table. Of course, with this pandemic going on right now, the salsa bar is closed and dine-in prohibited. Currently, booths are blocked off and all chairs have been turned upside down and placed atop tables. When ordering, be sure to check out the paper menus they have posted next to the counter. There's a $6.49 breakfast menu and other specials advertised that you won't find online nor on the digital menu boards. Breakfast items include chilaquiles (fried corn tortillas topped with red or green salsa and various toppings), huevos rancheros, huevos divorciados (like huevos rancheros but each egg has a different sauce, hence the "divorce"), huevos con chorizo, breakfast burritos, and molletes (kind of like the Mexican version of Italian bruschetta). Specials include menudo (Mexican spicy cow stomach soup), available Friday-Sunday (only $5.50 each), papas bravas (sort of like fries), and fish tacos. The regular menu features over two dozen kinds of tortas, all priced at $6.59. This is certainly a good value when you consider the sandwich sizes, ingredients, and taste/quality. Outside of tortas, offerings include tacos (eight kinds) priced at $1.99 each (except for the lengua/tongue taco, that's $2.99), "gringas" quesadillas ($5.19 each), burritos ($5.79-6.59 each), huaraches ($5.69 each), consome ($3.99 each), flautas ($6.09 each), and sides like chips and cheese dip ($4.79). Pretty decent selection. To drink, they have aguas frescas behind the counter -- horchata, jamaica, tamarindo, and mango ($1.99-2.25 each) and serve Jarritos brand Mexican soda. Finally, they have a lunch menu with $5.99 taco combos and tacos salads, chicken taquitos ($5.79), and pambazo (a simple sandwich made with red pambazo bread, $4.99). I picked up a couple carnitas (pork chunks) tacos for a friend at $1.99 each. Las Tortas Locas' tacos are authentic, served hot off the grill on two soft corn flour tortillas with chopped cilantro and white onion. Another friend picked up some carne asada (grilled steak) tacos (same price, $1.99 each) and queso fundido y chips (cheese dip and chips) at the aforementioned $4.79. I ordered the following tortas: * Cubana - ham, smoked ham, sausage, scrambled egg, white cheese, lettuce, tomato, avocado, jalapeno * Nortena torta - milanesa (breaded steak), Chihuahua and fresh white cheeses, lettuce, tomato, avocado, jalapeno * Mexicana torta - carne asada (grilled steak), ham, fresh white cheese, lettuce, tomato, avocado, jalapeno All three tortas were yummy. If I had to pick a favorite, it would probably be the Nortena torta. I've had it as well at the Chamblee location and it's one I keep coming back to. The combination of milanesa and cheeses is just so satisfying. The Cubana torta is one that I've ordered at various restaurants around town. It's fun and filling because it comes with a lot of different ingredients like hot dog. As for the Mexicana torta, it's great too. Savory and comforting. My favorite ingredients in all the tortas were the avocado and fresh white cheese. All tortas were neatly wrapped in paper and conveniently cut in half which made eating them easy and relatively mess-free. The staff was polite. read more

Las Tortas Locas is a fast food style Mexican restaurant, which, so far, has not Americanized many of it's menu items. This is probably because most of the customers who come here are Hispanic. This Las Tortas Locas location is off of Buford Highway, but isn't easily seen from the road because it's tucked at the far end of a small strip mall and partially hidden by a gas station. The free parking lot is small and shared by a few small businesses, and, at times, it could be a challenge to find parking. Don't expect anything highfalutin here. It's straight forward and simple Mexican food here, so don't expect free chips. Service is generally good here, although the person taking orders at the front counter can slow things down by getting chatty whenever there is a Spanish speaker ordering. Customers order at the front counter and then find a seat at any of the available tables or booths. This place doesn't have a big dining area inside, and there isn't anywhere to sit outside, so you may have to order your food to go if there isn't a place for you to sit. It doesn't take the kitchen staff very long to make your food (unless they're completely slammed with lots of take-out orders), and someone at the pickup counter will call out your number in Spanish. I absolutely love the giant beef flautas (flautas gigantes de carne) at Las Tortas Locas, and that is exactly what I ordered. Giant flautas look like a taquito, or rolled taco, only they are a little wider and certainly a lot longer. The outside is made with multiple corn tortillas, and I ordered mine with beef filling. The order comes with shredded lettuce, avocado, tomato, queso crema, onions and shredded cheeses. It's basically two giant flautas covered with a nice sized side salad. It also came with a small cup each of red hot sauce and green hot sauce. For me, the red hot sauce is a lot spicier, so that was my go-to, only I had to ask for two more cups so that I could dip my flautas in them for every bite. Mmmmm! I also got a lime Jarritos, which took the spicy hot sauce sting out of my mouth for a second or two. I also suggest getting the horchata, a sweetened drink made with rice and cinnamon for the same mouth-cooling effect. Prices are reasonable, and the food is delicious. I'm a fan! read more

Out of town folks here just looking for something good to eat. The food was great and it came out pretty quick! Our only concern was that we were just treated very poorly by the girl who took our order, I believe her name was Andrea. read more

This place is a hole in the wall (albeit with a massive billboard pointing Buford Highway visitors in the right direction). It's authentic, quick, and delicious. The Texana torta was fresh and well balanced, with a strong enough consistency to be filling without being too messy. The horchata was second to none in Atlanta, and the whole meal was less than 15$, even with some street tacos thrown in! The variety of salsas in the salsa bar was a great bonus, and all of them were really fresh and delicious. I would highly recommend this spot. read more

I had to think a bit about whether this was a 3 star or 4 star, but wound up rounding up because of price, which is very reasonable. The tacos, I'd say the fixings are fresh, and overall they seemed authentic - corn tortillas (not my personal preference), well constructed. One of the three tacos I tried, which I think was the carnitas (could've been Al Pastor), I enjoyed more than the other two, but I may just like carnitas as a rule. They were overall a little bland, necessitating contributions from the salsa bar. The Horchata was a bit too sweet, which overpowered the spices that usually define it. There was a lot of turnover, a modest line, and the place was on the dirty side. All that said, the food was a good value. The parking was ample, though there is a gas station somehow shoved in the middle of the lot. I'd go back, but only if I was passing by - not make a separate trip - and I might go with a burrito instead of tacos, so as to have my preferred type of tortilla. read more

This place is amazing and very beautiful. The staff here have pride in their culture and that is beautiful. Prices here are very very cheap and worth it. I was craving a torta for a while. I had the La NORTEÑA (Milanesa, queso Chihuahua and queso fresco. Breaded steak, Chihuahua cheeses and fresh white cheese) and their hibiscus drink called Jamaica. Very delicious and refreshing. Much needed and all of that for under 10$ (tax included). This place was so good that I cleaned my plate. Wow and thankful is all I can say. A must try for those seeking authentic tortas. Whole menu wait for me to try you all. Love love love. Shoutout to the salad bar and salsa bar. So many choices and options to mix and match with your meal. Overall, I WILL be coming back ASAP again and again, because this is truly a hidden gem on Buford Highway right nearby Lee's Bakery. This is a beautiful representation of Buford Highway's cultural diversity with Vietnamese and Mexican food together side by side as they cater to the community and beyond. Positive vibes all around. read more

You can find this location of Las Tortas Locas at 4005 Buford Hwy Ste H, Atlanta, GA 30345 in Chamblee - this is the shopping center to the north and behind the Chevron Station near the top of the hill across from Plaza Fiesta. Parking can be rather competitive as the very popular Lee's Bakery AND Co'm are in the same series of shops. You may need to park towards the front (on the Lee's side) and walk a bit. I've visited several Las Tortas Locas, this one used to be the very good El Senor Taco but has since converted to this very authentic Mexican chain. My favorite sandwich here (Tortas is Latino for sandwich) is the Campesina (grilled steak, Mexican sausage and peppers) but on this occasion I met up with my Buford Highway Restaurant Crawl group so we explored more of the menu. The great thing about going with a group of adventuresome diners is that everyone is willing to explore and share so you can sample a bigger portion of the menu. Las Tortas did not disappoint... We ordered: * 3-Tacos - one each of Asada (grilled steak), Pastor (marinated spicy pork) and Pollo (grilled chicken) - these were all yummy, served in a traditional steamed double soft corn tortilla. Las Tortas has an awesome spicy green sauce on their salsa bar - it pretty much goes great on anything. * Loca Salad (chicken) - Romain lettuce, charbroiled chicken or steak, tortilla strips, pico de gallo salsa, tomatoes, cheese and olives (left off the olives) with a side of rice. I thought this good and surprisingly filling - it's also a great value, as there's a lot of food in the basket. * Tortas Campesina - grilled steak, Mexican sausage and peppers, with a side of fries - this was delicious as always * Tortas Texana - grilled steak, bacon, bell pepper and white cheese You order at the bar and then wait for you number to be called in Spanish - you might want to brush up on your numbers as you can be missed when the place is busy - ask my how I know? Service here is good but nominal - you basically get what you need. The food here is super cheap - you can basically order two items for about the cost of a single meal in most places. The only negative is the parking - in comparison with the other Las Tortas Locas this is one of the better in regards to flavors, service and condition (the worst I've experienced is the one near the corner of Chamblee-Tucker and Shallowford Rd).

This place is a hidden BuHi gem. Authentic Mexican - you're lucky if they speak English which is great! They have 2 menus - the true Mexican menu and the "gringas" menu which is for those less adventurous. It's an order at the counter and pick up when ready style hole in the wall. No fountain drinks. Bottled coke?!? Yup it's here. But I have to admit I went for nachos - and cleaned my plate. Perfect portion size and quality ingredients. I'll come back. Parking is limited. Seating is limited but they offer takeout. read more

Casual dining, fair prices, delicious tacos. Nice & clean salsa bar with veggies. They could clean up the outside of the building to be more inviting. The whole complex needs a good pressure washing. read more

I've been twice, and the food has been excellent! Both times I had the chicken nachos. The ingredients were great, and the food was flavorful. It's also very affordable. The restaurant is mostly enjoyed by locals, and it's not at all fancy. Both times, the wait fir the food was about 7-10 minutes. It's definitely worth checking out. read more

After a failed attempt to eat at Lee's Bakery (since everyone and their mothers decided to also get pho on the cold wet day), we ventured into Las Tortas, where I made sure to promote the fish tacos to everyone. Las Tortas Locas is like another Don Pedro, but smaller and somewhat less organized. Food came out of order, for whatever reason, I'm not sure. My favorite tacos are hands down the fish tacos and the carne asada. The fish tacos came out inconsistently, with different garnish and some without the same sauce. However, my fish taco came out perfectly. The steak was perfectly seasoned and cooked. I also had the al pastor, which paled in comparison to the fish and steak. There is a good sized sauce bar with condiments and sides for your tacos and Tortas. I noticed red and green sauces, which I decided to try. Note that the green sauce is not the avocado cream hot sauce that it appears to be - it is actually really freaking hot because it's jalapeño. The red sauce is very tasty, though and goes well on any red meat taco. I'm glad we chose Las Tortas over Lee's Bakery - cheaper, takes credit card at any amount, little to no wait for seating, and some fresh tasting ingredients. I'm glad there are other locations around Atlanta, which makes for easy access to fish tacos at any place, any time. read more

Las Tortas Locas - Fish taco, carne asada, and al pastor tacos - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

If you want to get out of your comfort zone and enjoy some authentic Mexican tacos this is your place. After a day of bowling, we decided an early, easy dinner was needed. It is in a very small shopping plaza on Buford Highway. We both ordered 3 tacos, no sides nothing fancy. We each chose the Barbacoa which a flavored steamed steak, Carne Asada (always try those) hubby a Chorizo and myself Pollo (chicken). The staff were pleasant. Food is prepared fresh and is picked up at the counter yourself. Extremely tasty, authentic Mexican tacos and at 1.99 each other worth every bite. Barbacoa had a nice flavorful and mouthfeel that was infused with cinnamon and other spices simply topped with onions and cilantro and double corn tortillas, Pollo was topped with cheese and lettuce. Meat was a bit more dry but it is chicken. I added a lot of salsa to this one. My favorite was the Carne Asada again a simple top of onions and cilantro. We tried all four salsas and our favorite was an avocado, tomatillo blend. Be warned the reds are hot, really hot. They have a good menu, Tortas are obviously on there but I am trying to avoid bread. Lots of sides to choose from as well and a salsa bar with other items. We didn't see anyone make it eat those and since most signs were in Spanish we didn't try them. So far, best tacos in Atlanta for us but I want to try others and find that 5 star. This could be it, we will see if I update. read more

Wow couldn't make up my mind. Got the torta asada Sandwich and taco pastor with pineapple and onions and cheese as extra. Best taco that I ever had!!!! They have a topping bar where I added hot peppers and a green crema sauce. Awesome!!!! The asada sandwich was very good but taco was much better. It was an abundance of flavors This place is great because you can order individual tacos. You are not forced to order three like most chains require. Very hard to find but so worth it. Couldn't have done it without yelp !!!! read more

Las Tortas Locas - Taco pastor with added pineapple and cheese Green pepper crema from topping bar - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Absolutely the best authentic Mexican tortas in Atlanta (in my opinion). I mean, I'm not The authority on Mexican tortas but I know an amazing sandwich when I taste one. I had the Torta Texana and it was just such an amazingly savory sandwich with the perfect bread, amounts of meat and sauce and the avocado made the sandwich pop. I have consistently eaten here for 15 years and it is always the same. Excellent. They have other items as well, including awesome tacos and horchata. read more

Discovered this gem today while running an errand nearby. I was craving tacos for taco Tuesday, so did a quick search of tacos nearby. Las Tortas Locas popped up and after peeking at the menu it sounded exactly what I was looking for. It is located in the same strip as the popular Lees Bakery and Com. I thought about getting some tacos and a bowl of pho...next time! The menu offers a variety of tortas, tacos, burritos, quesadillas and specialty plates. They have a spot of chicken and pork going in the kitchen, so I knew this was going to be good! I was there for tacos, but because the prices were awesome I also got a burrito : ) The chicken had great flavor and was hot and juicy! I love how they use fresh corn tortillas and double them up for the tacos. The burritos are also a good size and come with rice and beans, what a surprise!They had a salsa bar with fresh salsa and veggies to help yourself to. I'm happy to learn that they have 2 other locations. This might my new taco spot. That chicken is definitively something to crave. 3 chicken tacos and a chicken burrito loco for $12 and some change. What a deal! read more

A Tortas taste like a philly with a twist. After reading the reviews that statement reigned true. I ordered a texana. The prices have gone up to 7.29 per sandwich. But the sandwiches are a good size and very filling. I also ordered an horchata and a mango drink to go along with my order. It was delicious. The sauce that comes along with the sandwich taste like a purée of salsa verde. All in all I'll definitely be back as soon as I can. read more

Really good torta. We split the "Mexicano", it was really good. Can't wait to go back for much more; taquitos, tacos and burritos. Also, very clean and efficient. read more

I was craving a Steak taco salad so, my friend recommended this place. I pulled up and it was the usual taco joint you find low key around town. Cashier girl was so sweet and we were both giggling because, I was super excited for this salad. I ordered my salad, and for $6! Good price. Lots of greens topped with tomato cuts, steak, and a sprinkle of onion, a little cheese, and beef on the side. I just put a little green salsa on top. I was good to go. Salad was amazing. I like simple Mexican food. It was a simple salad with not a whole bunch of crap. I loved it. Since it's mostly lettuce (the good kind not that iceberg crap), I ate almost all of it!! read more

If your looking for some good fashion mexican street food, you've found the place. The flavors really remind me of a taco truck in LA. And trust me, thats a high complement. I've been looking for good street tacos ever since i got to ATL and now ive found my go to spot. It is a grab and go kind of environment and very busy. If you dont speak spanish it might be hard to order due to most the workers speaking primiarly spanish. Dont let that stir you away though cause with my little bit of spanish i was able to find my new go to spot. read more

These tacos are outstanding! Little joint tucked in near Lee's Bakery on Buford Hwy. I've always loved Mexican street food. Tacos can be addictive and not expensive at all.

Updating my review and downgrading my rating after revisiting this restaurant last evening with a group of 7. Unlike our last (first) visit, this time the food was mediocre at best. The sandwiches were thrown together with small amount of food or missing ingredients entirely (no avocado?) This was consistent across all the items we ordered, which included 4 different tortas, a quesadilla, flautas and tacos. The guacamole was also bland, needing salt and lime juice to help (although I will say the Avocado was good quality/fresh and the portion was good. The only thing I thought was good was the consume. This place is a dive and not an attractive ambience but I can/would overlook that if the food justified it. On this occasion, it definitely did not. read more

Delicious. Be sure to order two fish tacos, al pastor (with cheese and pineapple) & Barbacoa! Avocado cream salsa is on point! read more

Great place to go for a quick lunch. The tortas are my favorite. I will definitely be returning when I'm in town.

Great deals, feels authentic. Chicken burrito was delicious, but not worth it to get the lunch special because the rice & beans weren't great. Only get the salsa if you have a large party to eat it because it's huge, and there's already a salsa bar! read more

I wouldn't say I'm a taco whore, but I do sleep my way around town on select weekends. Especially when I crave carne asada. And al pastor. And carnitas. And, well, pretty much errthang that moos or oinks. But to be honest, similar to how a few women in this lovely city have told me Atlanta severely lacks a quality pool of men (oooh, zing!), I feel the same way with authentic Mexican eateries in The A. In other words, there aren't many authentic, tasty options. I'm talkin' 'bout soccer on the TVs, little kids running around and crawling underneath tables, and groups of men huddled about filling up on delicious calories post-work (that looks hella laborious). I'm talkin' real taquerias. ***** I. FOOD & DRINK This traditional to-go joint has all of your classic meats and drinks one could ever want, and they don't skimp out on the free smells. For my meal, I went with one of their carne asada tortas and an al pastor taco. And to wash everything down, I had to grab a cup of horchata. *Carne Asada Torta: The bread - it's soft, airy, and perfectly toasted. The carne asada had some acid, nice heat, and a wonderful flavorful char. And, of course, queso fresco, creamy guac, fresh tomato, and a slice of ham made appearances. So welcome to #gluttoncity. *Al Pastor Taco: Tortilla is a bit fluffy and steaming hot. The al pastor had a nice kick to it. It also comes with pineapple (to help breakdown the meat), and the all the fixings consisting of onion, cilantro, etc... Pretty tasty, and better than most of the places I've eaten closer to the middle of town. **Horchata: Not made from powder, yo. It's nutty, sweet, and absolutely refreshing. You have to finish your meal with this, if you ever visit. Or we're not friends. There's also a robust sauce bar, for you to smother all your food with. Go with the spicy sauce, of course. Verde is cool, too. II. SERVICE Although very nice, it took a surprisingly long time to get my torta, taco, and drink for a space only half full. So, I can imagine the wait being ridiculously long on a busy lunch or night. III. AMBIENCE/ DÉCOR Like I mentioned, it's a legit eatery where Mexicans hangout. Plus, you can definitely catch up on your international news. In Spanish. IV. PRICES Pretty dang affordable! Everything put me back maybe ten-ish bucks. It's definitely an eatery you can hit up on the regular. V. OVERALL I usually hit up this strip mall to pick up noms from Lee's Bakery, but Las Tortas Locas might change up my routine. read more

A friend took me to this spot & it was great! The restaurant was clean, I quickly placed my order and it was ready in a timely manner. They have a SALSA BAR! I got every salsa they had to try and was not let down by the spice & flavor if each sauce I tried. I orded the taco combo, they were filled to the brim which was delightfully surprising with the affordable price. I will go again! read more

Their menu has English btw, for those that don't know Spanish. I know so little that I was grateful there was English, haha. Overall, SOLID tortas. My bf had a torta before we left Chicago, and the bread was so soggy, while the meat flavoring was good. HERE HOWEVER, the torta was toasted. Perfectly crisp outside and soft warm inside. One of the best tortas I've ever had so far. I got the toluquena, which has smoked ham, chorizo, and queso. It was so heavenly. I highly recommend it. My boyfriend got the nortena, which had steak, queso, and chihuahua cheese. His was good too, but we agreed mine was better (hah). They also have a condiments bar near the back. I got some of the creamy green sauce, and put some cucumbers in my sandwich. Highly recommend! There are so many different things you can do. For a torta, it was REALLY cheap too! About $6-7. And it fills you up. It's a bit out of the way (Buford Highway), but it's definitely worth the trek out here. Go here if you need to make a shopping trip to Buford Highway Farmer's Market. It'll be perfect when you need to walk off dinner! They also accept credit :) read more

I'm going to have to piggy back off the previous reviews on the service, cleanliness, and food ratings! This is my first visit here and it was a very good experience from start to end. Everything's made fresh to order from my experience and came hot, just like I love! The burrito I ordered (Bistec) was packed with deliciousness and is of descent size. The Torta was just as tasty, but has less meat filling it, as it should compared to a burrito. They food is pretty authentic, which is was I was looking for, great job! The place is very clean, the people are very nice! You should have an enjoyable experience here! read more

Went here upon my two year olds request for a quesadilla. The quesadilla he got was just ok but my fish tacos were very good. They came with one big piece of fish, slaw, pick, and queso fresca.
