This is a very good and surprisingly authentic Mexican restaurant. They have a lot of interesting meat choices for Mexican street tacos. Cheap beer on Wednesday is a plus. I personally enjoyed the salsa bar the most with 8+ fresh salsa choices. They give refills on chips too. Chips at 95 cents a basket. read more

Very NOT authentic, only a step above taco hell. Way over priced for the value! I've eaten at many authentic taquiera's around Atlanta and was pseudo excited to try this 1 since it was where I was working today and was not impressed at all. The usual dollar tacos have less meat and are smaller and are 2 dollars here. Torta was half the size of a normal torta I would get anywhere else with less meat and a small square of cheese. Salsa bar was a joke, reminded me of Moes. They even will charge you full price for a refill of sugar water.. If you are craving authentic mexican you might as well head to Taco bell I think its a block away, if you know anything about authentic mexican stay far far away. read more

The best salsa bar in the whole city. They spend time and effort into making every dish flavorful and delicious. Parking is a little tough but worth it every time!! read more

Just plain awful. The food is almost totally free of taste or character. This is Tex-Mex taken from a mall food court in Anywhereville, USA. The burrito I was served and what little flavor it did have it did have a mild hint of an unusual substance that I can only speculate was horse meat and it also had a mild flavor of something you would scrape off of your shoe. You would be better off looking in your back yard eating a stray dog turd. read more

This has to be my favorite taco place !!! The food is amazing and the staff makes you feel like family. The chicken soup is a must on a cold day and their salsas are amazing. The molcajete is a crowd pleaser. I definitely recommend it ! read more

I'm kind of addicted to Mr. Taco now. It's become a lunch favorite for sure. It's cheap and fast and the lunch chicken fajitas are very generous and also tasty. The salsa bar offers so many choices that I routinely over-sauce but it all turns out OK. My picky coworkers even like it here - they usually opt for a different lunch special and they're all huge and usually get finished. You do order at the counter but the food is more like at a casual sit-down restaurant. I like it. I'll probably be back a few times next week. read more

My last review dated 11/29 was in reference to nachos... I'm back again with another nachos review. How can a Mexican restaurant mess up such an easy, essential Mexican dish?!?! The key to nachos is cheese and this place is VERY stingy with cheese. I'm not asking for nachos soup but damn - give me some cheese! This is the second time my nachos have been screwed up and I won't be back. NOW, the Mr. Taco on Holcombe Bridge is consistently great! Not going back to this one. read more

If you love mr taco, only go to the Roswell location, Not the alpharetta northpoint location!The meat was old,dry and tasteless ;and I was sick later on ,from only eating a few bites. When I complained to the manager, he said oh well with a attitude and walked away with no refund .Normally my friends n I go to the Roswell location and the food is amazing with great service, I love the soup and best guacamole n salsa around ! Apparently the owners divorced and the wife runs the Np location and doesn't have a qualified chef, and a manager who doesnt have manager skills; this why they are run so differently. I gave the Np location 1 star because the store is nicer looking, but the Roswell store gets 4 , and our loyalty ! read more

Fast service. Usually good for some quick, cheap Mexican lunch. Always friendly when I go inside. Delivery is fast too! I usually order chicken burrito, which is great. Tried the chicken taco once and that was no bueno. Very dry, lacked seasoning and overall flavor. read more

Being from Texas, I have a certain standard when I eat Mexican food. I grew up with homemade tortillas in every Mexican restaurant I went to, and this place does not have it. I tried the carnitas and the carne asada when I went, and the meat was a really dry taste (like you would find at any other typical Mexican place in GA). If the meat was marinated, I did not taste it. The only reason I am giving this place 2 stars is because of the Salsa Bar, which is good. I think a Taco Cabana in a similar location would run this place out of business. read more

Food is always amazing and prices are very reasonable. Service is prompt and pleasant. Highly recommend for a casual excellent meal

Bummed they were closed on Friday, respect their decision to participate in the protest...a message on the answering machine would have been nice. read more

One of my friends' loves this place and frequently suggests it for lunch during the work week. When it comes to Mexican food, it's seldom that you find a really inventive place, so I've got to give Mr Taco a little credit. Rather than the traditional dine-in Mexican restaurant, it's set up more like a fast food place, but still a lot nicer than taco bell. Think of a standard Mexican restaurant wherein you order food from a cashier, get a number and then someone bring it out. Additionally, they've got a salsa bar in the middle for people to sample different salsas, kind of like a Moe's. As far as the food, I'm not too impressed. My friend always gets the mole (sp?) tacos and loves them; I guess I need to try them out. You don't get free chips here like you would at a usual mexican restaurant which has made my salsa bar moot. read more

I used to travel to Mexico on business about 8 times a year. I never pass-up the opportunity to eat good, authentic tacos. Mr Taco has some of the best in Metro Atlanta (outside of Buford Highway, of course). I'm glad to have the new location - closer and cleaner. I wish they would get a dedicated phone order person. Every time I walk up to the counter, I have to wait for them to take phone orders. read more

Absolutely delicious authentic food with awesome prices! My husband and I both ordered the Chimichanga dish which comes with one beef and one chicken, a side of beans and guacamole salad. We ordered to go, but he allowed us two salsas from the bar. They were awesome. The portion was very generous and the meat was so tender. I could tell it was marinated for a while and was delicious. For the two of it it was less that $15. We will definitely be returning! read more

This may just me the best Mexican food in the city! Fast, fresh, friendly and reasonably priced! Love the salsa bar! Go! Go now!

Grew up in CA and miss the authentic Mexican food that is so readily available, there. Mr. Taco is awesome. Prices are good, service is speedy and friendly and they have a lot to choose from. This location is clean and the food is tasty. A lot of the customers were Mexican and if they're eating there, it's pretty authentic. Had a Carne Asada Torta and it was awesome. They have a salsa bar with a lot of different sauces to kick up your plate a notch, even more....Try it, you'll like it! read more

There Al pastor was not the best shrimp taco was good. Won't be going back anytime soon

Ordered delivery of a chicken taco loco and there was a huge piece of chicken bone in it- about 2 1/2 inches. Called them and he asked if I hurt myself then said "it can happen with the way we prepare our chicken." I told him it was lucky I didn't break a tooth or choke and he laughed. Said he would tell the person who prepares the chicken to be more careful and hung up. Very poor customer service. read more

Food is really good for the price. The only thing is if you plan on going for your lunch break you best take about 3 lunches. They are so busy you will wait for at least 30 min for your order. read more

My fav place for mexican food. Their salad and salsa section is unmatchable! Reasonable prices, well I tried only veggie options

I visited the Alpharetta location this past Thursday with my son. I mentioned to the order taker that I had been there once before a long time ago and did not care for my dinner but agreed to try it again, hoping somehow things would go better. I was disappointed once again. I ordered the Burrito Verde, described on the menu as filled with shredded beef. Well, it should have said filled with shredded leather because the meat was so tough I gave up on finishing it. While I still had a mouthful of this non-pliable matter in my mouth, one of the staff walked by and asked is everything OK? Well, before I could even motion that I wanted to speak after i finished chewing and swallowing, she continued on her way back behind the counter to chat with the other staff person and look at her cell phone. I continued to look over to the counter until one of them finally looked and motioned for her to come over to the table. I explained how my only half-eaten burrito had extremely tough meat in it and I was not happy with it. The response? She stood there for a few seconds looking at it, then walked over to the next table to clean it off. Before departing this environment of indifference, i asked for the name/number of a manager since none were onsite to talk with me. I was given the name of Cecilia Arredondo, whom i both called and texted to explain my experience. The response? None. Is there anyone else at the helm of Mr. Taco that really cares about the customer experience? I don't know, but you sure won't find anybody's names on the website. My suggestion...with all the choices for Mexican food in the area, don't risk your good money on a place that doesn't even offer to bring you something else to replace the crap you had to push away from. We are talking basic Restaurant 101 policy here to make/keep a steady clientele. And I must add I am shocked there are several good reviews based on striking out 2 for 2 with this place. read more

Heard good things and was passing by so decided why not?... This is why I don't trust people's recommendation on Mexican food. This is mediocre Mexican food (Tex-Mex really) at its best. The salsa bar looked promising, but the food tasted microwaved. I paid almost $10 for a Burrito, tamale and taco plate. Burrito tasted like one of those frozen chimichangas from Kroger smothered in Tostitos salsa and cheese. Tamale wasn't actually that bad, but the taco was barely better than Taco Bell. I'd actually rather have one of Taco Bell's Doritos Locos tacos than eat another one of Mr. Tacos. I also waited 20-30 mins for my food to go and the place was not busy. So these are my main reasons of why not to eat here. :) read more

I really don't get the hype about this restaurant. I've tried it twice and the food is sub par at best.

Best Mexican food I have had. The Mexican tacos are delicious. They have a very extensive menu and everything I have tried so far has been delicious. read more

I used to live off Old Milton and frequent this place and I still try to drop by as much as I can. Great authentic mexican food and its not as divey as other places, and they have an excellent variety of food. Good tacos, different types of tacos, big california burritos, and even dinner plates like you get at a sit-down restaurant. I usually get an order of stuffed poblano peppers, chips and salsa, and tlalpeno soup. Or a california burrito. Or tacos. And their salsa is HOT and very authentic. Great place! read more

Okay, this place has grown on me a little bit. I guess they're more of a taqueria than a typical Mexican place. Their salsa bar is pretty nice, good selection. As far as their authentic tacos, they're not bad, but I've had better. I'd probably go here over others just because of location. But there are better places in Alpharetta/Roswell. Now for the tacos: Barbacoa (beef or goat) - Both were just meh. The beef was kinda bland. I guess it's chuck. It's shredded, but they're kinda long shreds. Fish - These were the best out of what I had. Carnitas - Fine. But the meat was chopped in chunks rather than shredded (which seems typical). Carne Asada - Meh. Meat was fine, not as "grilled" tasting as I'd expect. Maybe a little tough. I'd go back. Like I said, it's good enough. read more

Just another mexican place run by mexicans that have regular mexican customers. I now understand how it feels to be a minority since I was outnumbered by mexicans at least 10 to 1. Ok as for the food and service it just... um, ok. The food wasn't bad enough for me to throw it away but good enough for me to keep on eating it. The enchilada had really dry beef and the mexican sandwich had a lot of really dry meat. Maybe they're cutting corners by getting cheap meats and freezing 'em? read more

Really wanted to give this place a good review. But torn booths??? I mean I would have accepted duct tape. The salsa bar that someone raved about had run out of condiment cups and only had little shot cups that didn't work. I assume they are running out of money . Sad. The food was honestly just ok. read more

Seriously the best Mexican food in town most of these other Mexican restaurants around are too Tex-Mex with no authentic flavor but Mr.Taco stays true to the authentic Mexican food ! My favorite are the chicken chimichangas ! read more

I'm just giving 3 stars for the good customer service that I received. The food left much to be desired. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and apparently they make theirs with slices of mozzarella cheese. I've never heard of that before but it wasn't for me. Also, the rice was very bland. I got a refund with no problems and the girl was really nice about it. read more

Stopped in here for lunch when I was on the way to the North Pointe Mall. The food was a great bargain for the price. I got a Chimichanga plate for $6, which came with rice, beans, guacamole, sour cream and lettuce. The plate had two small Chimichangas with shredded beef. I liked the fact that they weren't smothered with cheese as you get in some other places. Overall it is a decent place to get a quick meal. read more

Really good food. Fast service. Fresh salsa bar. Tiny language problem depending on who your cashier is that day. We get food to go and it is well packed. Don't stack hot food containers because they bend. Husband says the cerviche is the best in town. Love the enchaladas ranchero. Very reasonably priced. Does get too busy at lunch time and that can affect the quality of the cooking. Overall a good American Mexican restaurant. I have never been to Mexico. I would not know authentic Mexican if it were served to me! read more

Great Salsa Bar! The fours stars are for the many, delicious choices of salsas they offer on their salsa bar. We've been eating at Mr. Taco for a couple of years now. They have a variety of good choices on their menu. Their meat portions have gotten smaller and their prices have gone up, but we still keep coming back for the salsa! read more

Went back and dined in. The food was really good (I got the #6) and the salsa bar was excellent. I think I tried every salsa witht he leftover chips from my spinach queso, which was also good. This place is my new favorite for cheap Mexican food. read more

This place is great. Why do I have to write a long review for it to count? This is stupid a

Hey if you want some good authentic tacos head over to Mr Taco Alpharetta. Quick service, delicious food, and amazing salsa bar with so many choices mild to flaming. Molcajete is really good but if you don't eat spicy get the sauce on the side. read more

This place is great. They have a huge hot sauce bar which is what takes it to the next level. I've tried several Mexican favorites, and while they do not necessarily distinguish themselves as a culinary experience, they are what is expected - which allows for the hot sauce bar to be the flair. read more

I have to say there are many options for Mexican however they have the best tacos in town. They combine excellent food with great service and are consistent with every visit. They provide many fresh salsas and condiments to explore with your tacos so you never get bored. I truly enjoy this place and will have them cater my next party read more

Great food. Taco's are small very small but good. The food is fresh and hot. I enjoyed the shrimp tacos. Little pricey to be small.
