    Decided to try this place for lunch. It was good option and really enjoyed my visit. It was empty when we went but the staff was really nice and helpful. They do a great margarita pitcher special that was great for my party of four. I ordered the barbacoa tacos and they were incredible. They were super flavorful. The rice and beans were fine. Overall this is a good place for lunch

    I enjoyed this spot so much that I came back the next day! Our server Katelynn was so great! She was attentive, helpful, kind, and funny. The food was so good. I started off with appetizers and of course had to get chips and guac. Best part is the chips are homemade so they are a bit thicker and so delicious. Also, the guacamole was fresh and flavorful. Also, we did order the chips and cheese if you are a fan of nachos and cheese, you definitely want to get this dish. The cheese was so good creamy flavorful and delicious. Next, I ordered the steak burrito, which was something that Katelyn recommended amazing. It was a great portion, and it was absolutely delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly. The burrito was rolled perfectly. When I came back the second time I ordered the shrimp tacos, and I was very excited because it was fried shrimp and I can tell you right now. It was absolutely divine. The flavors were on point. The shrimp was cooked beautifully and the other thing I ordered that you definitely want to get your hands on is the empanada of the day When I went it was a shrimp and empanada, and it was absolutely amazing. My goodness it was cooked perfectly. One of my favorite parts was the drinks I ordered a strawberry frozen margarita as well as a pomegranate frozen margarita and they were both amazing shout out to the bartender. He is so great. He knows what he's doing. So you can easily see why this restaurant has definitely earned a spot on my list

    Queso gringo & skinny love margarita

    Really cute spot just off the beltline! They also have a free parking lot in the back. Skinny love marg and mojito were great. They have a pitcher & dip deal for $40 on Wednesdays and $3.50 tacos on Tuesdays. You could tell the chips were fresh, and the portions are large enough that we both had leftovers. The burrito was really good but a lil spicy. The quesadillas weren't your traditional quesadillas (not served in a tortilla). They use corn-mesa turnovers and stuff the toppings inside, which was unique and really delicious. Overall food was great, drinks were great, service was great! The only (very small) complaint was that their Coke was served in a can and not out of a fountain lol.

    One of the best margaritas I've had in life lol. It's mixed so swell and packed with a powerful punch but you cannot taste the tequila! Wonderful, right? Unless you're driving. The freshest fajita, too. You can literally watch the kitchen preparing fresh veggies and the mushrooms are beyond tasteful. I'll be back without a doubt. Friendly staff might I add.

    If I could, I would eat here every weekend. The food is tasty, drinks are flowing, and the indoor-outdoor style is so fun. Setting: Inman park across Beetlecat; this location is easily accessible by walking on the beltline. Parking can be tough in this area! Service: Kind waitstaff who check in frequently and give you time if you're a little too busy chatting with your girls (like I am). Food: The guacamole and queso are next level. I also love the rice and beans that come with the mains, so flavorful and hit the spot!

    I was not expecting my lime soup to be so big, but I think you can get a smaller size if you want it as an appetizer. There's parking along the street but theres also free parking in the neighborhood near delbar

    Lets eat!

    Gotta love shrimp tacos! Perfectly seasoned, breaded and cooked then placed in a corn shell with slaw- this is the menus best item. This location is always busy, filled with large groups and those on dates- therefore service does their best to be swift and attentive, however I recommend you know what you want and get the order in for everything the first time. Great margaritas!

    This is the new portion size.( Still way too many onions). This is the order of extra mushrooms.

    I usually love Pure. I've brought friends and family to dine with me at this location several times. Tonight I ordered carry out and they got my order wrong. I ordered the portobello fajitas with extra mushrooms. (Since they usually include a whole onion but skimp on the other veggies). Tonight they rang me up for veggie fajitas and I didn't get any mushrooms. I called about the issue and they agreed to let me pick up some mushrooms. When I arrived they gave me like 1/3 of a container with mushrooms. I mentioned that I'd order the portobello fajitas with EXTRA mushrooms. The hostess got frustrated with me and shared that they didn't charge me for the extra. (Not my fault.) She was annoyed, but placed the order for the extra mushrooms. Then she came back over expecting me to pay an additional five dollars. So my order was wrong. I drove all the way back to get it fixed and then I was expected to pay extra for THEIR error. I decided to pass on waiting AND paying for the extra mushrooms. I'll also be passing on returning for a while. The portion size is also a lot smaller than it used to be. (Remember the rectangular container with with the white bottom? It's gone.) The food was fine but the customer service was lacking.

    Shrimp Tacos

    Ummmm... this is my second time here and was actually looking forward to visiting this location a second time. But I'm experience was less than stellar. I almost felt as if I was a burden or getting on their nerves. They definitely did not come to work to work today. No one was at the hostess stand, and both of the server and the bartender was at the bar on their phone. Looked and fail to mention that you can seat yourself... trust me the service is usually better than this but I do believe that they are extremely short staffed today and maybe not be too excited about that. The restaurant itself is super cute. Kind of like a 60/70's vibe with some natural plant life. And being that i am a plant mom I feel that makes this place even more special. It's cold here today but usually they'll have the place opened up. Definitely a indoor/outdoor thing going on. Definitely recommend visiting when it's warm out. The entire front of the building is made of garage doors which all go up SUPER COOL! The food is delicious. I have zero complaints when the food is involved. The cooks did exactly what they were suppose to do in the kitchen. The Totopos de Salmon is a warm tortilla chip topped smoked salmon, red onion, jalapeño slice, cilantro and cheese. It's the perfect little bite. It's refreshing and tasty, it's legit the combo you didn't know you needed. YUMMMM!! I also ordered the shrimp tacos. The come either fried or grilled and with a spicy mayo and a slaw. They are at best a 6/10 but still delicious. They maybe a little dry or missing something. I haven't been able to put my finger on it. The drinks are nice and strong like how I like them Pure does have a full bar but I prefer their margaritas. Trust me 2-3 of those depending of your tolerance will have you feeling great. Parking can be a bit complicated if they are busy. There are parking lots all over but it is paid parking but I highly suggest parking along the street. It's free and convenient.

    Chips and guac
    Sarah H.

    Visited on National Margarita Day with my husband and was both surprised and happy that there was seating available. We got there a little after 9pm and we seated right away with menus. While they didn't have margarita day specials they did have a Dip & Sip special for Wednesdays and Thursdays. It's $39.99 for a regular or plus margarita pitcher and either queso or guac. Our server greeted us and we ordered the plus pitcher with guac and continued to look over the menu. We were brought waters and the guac came quickly after. The chips were housemade and had the right amount of crunch and salt. Guac needed a little extra salt and pepper, but overall really good. The plus margarita was perfection. I ordered the Veggie Burrito Ahogado while he ordered 2 Birria Tacos and 1 Carne Asada taco with rice and black beans. We continued talking and eating the chips and guac. Food came and we were ready to eat. Presentation was good and so was the food. My burrito was flavorful and filling. He enjoyed his tacos and thought the rice and beans were ok. Overall it was a great time. Nice ambiance and staff. The only misstep was there is no indication, nor was there a mention, that the plus margarita is $4 more. I didn't even notice until a day later that they charged me $43.99 rather than $39.99 because if I had I would have addressed it.

    Chips & Queso
    Patrick R.

    Pure Taqueria is a great addition to this little Inman Park dining district. Our server was one of the friendliest I've encountered in Atlanta, the kitchen was liberal on both chips AND queso, the tacos were outstanding, and the prices-- unlike every other trendy taco joint-- were actually reasonable. Pure Taqueria may not have the personality of Fritti's, quality of Soto Soto, trendiness of BarTaco, or name recognition of Ben & Jerry's, but it's still one of the best restaurants on the block.

    Quesadilla con pollo y queso
    Anna J.

    This is a location I will absolutely stand by. I have been to the pure in Alpharetta multiple times but this location is the absolute best!! The quality and consistency is always so good and the service is top tier! I came in a group of 3 on a Friday evening and we were seated immediately on the heated patio. Our waitress gave us some amazing recommendations! We started off with the chips and queso and oh my god it was so good. The queso was great and the chips were so fresh! For my main, I got the quesadilla con pollo y queso which is basically fluffy tacos and wow!!!! They' we're fire!! The black beans were great but I always forgot I don't love the rice and just need to double beans. Someone else in my party got the flautas and loved them too. Overall 10/10

    Fives across the board…read more Casi Cielo is incredible. The space is warm and beautiful without trying too hard, and the crowd was hip and well dressed. Definitely a place to be seen and eat well. There's a parking garage but it was full when we got there, so we did valet, which was surprisingly affordable. Service was wonderful. Our server was attentive, helpful, and super knowledgeable about the menu. As for the food, we got: Aguachile de Pescado, which was insane. Super fresh, bright, citrusy, ceviche-like with perfect texture. I would go back just for that. The Hamachi was clean and bright. That avocado sauce tied everything together and gave it some depth without overpowering the fish. The Pork Belly Tostadas were crispy and rich with that smooth avocado mousse and sweet mango salsa balancing it out perfectly. Finally, the bone marrow with steak... so good. I had seen pictures of it before I came and it did not disappoint. The steak was incredibly tender. They bring blue corn tortillas and suggest making a taco with the marrow, steak, and avocado. It's great that way. But honestly, the marrow and steak stand perfectly on their own. Whole experience was excellent. Easily one of my favorite spots in the city now.

    We came here last night to celebrate my sister's birthday with a large group. Unfortunately, the…read moreservice kicked off on a really sour note. Right when we walked in, the staff complained to us that we hadn't called ahead to have a "smaller, special menu" crafted for a large party. To make matters worse, they loudly announced to the whole table right off rip that they wouldn't split checks separately--only an even split. It felt incredibly rude, lazy, and unwelcoming. The irony is that the large group size wasn't even an issue; we staggered our arrivals and the patio was completely empty. The kicker- my brother in law ended up paying the whole tab at the end anyways! so all of that initial laziness & nastiness for NOTHING! Throughout the night, the service felt incredibly rushed and stressed. While we were still eating our appetizers, the busser was aggressively trying to clear our plates because the mains were coming. Our server was very short with us the entire time, which was confusing because the restaurant didn't even have a stressful vibe. She recommended a main dish to me that I really didn't care for, though I will say the salsa was unique and probably the best part of the meal. Shoutout to the one staff member who was actually friendly, but overall, this is not the kind of place where you leave feeling like you had a nice restaurant experience- at least I personally didn't.. Too bad we didn't just go to C&S next door which we always love. Regardless tho, my sister had a blast, but that's entirely because she has a wonderful crew of great friends, not because of Casi Cielo.

They have quickly become my favorite place to get Mexican food. Let's get into it! Location and Parking They are located on Buford Highway in a small shopping plaza. The lot is medium sized, but they are sharing it with a few other businesses, and depending on the night it could definitely be hard to find a spot so keep that in mind. Venue and Atmosphere The venue is decently sized with both booths and regular tables. There are beautiful paintings hung all over, and the decorations that make you feel like you've stepped into a little part of Mexico. Atmosphere is super casual and comfortable. Food and drinks Now the menu here is massive. Take your time and prepare to be overwhelmed, because everything sounds amazing. Here's a breakdown of what we got each time. 1st visit - El Rey Del Taco Parrillada It's meant to be shared with two people, and comes with a pound of beef ribs, your choice of chicken or al pastor meat, six shrimp wrapped in bacon, with melted cheese and chorizo, plus tortillas and charro beans. It was just as delicious as it sounds. 2nd visit - Tacos The pastor con queso and the shrimp al pastor with cheese, onions, and al pastor sauce. You're welcome. 3rd visit - Fajitas Fajitas Texanas, with steak chicken and shrimp. There are 7 different combinations of sides that you can get. We got white rice, salad, and charro beans. This can also be shared, which my wife and I did. Speaking of the charro beans, they have the best beans I have ever had. For drinks I got the supreme regular mango margarita. My wife got strawberry. Both great. Service Food came out fast, but other than that the service was a little slow. Our waitress was nice, but it did seem that she forgot about us for a little while. The food was so good that I forgave it, plus at the end of the day I got everything I needed. Verdict If you're looking for amazing food and drinks, this is absolutely the place to get it. It just might end up being your favorite too! Until next time!
