    Wowww. I would fly back to Atlanta just to eat here! The food was so good, every single thing we ordered was amazing. I loved how each taco had a lot of meat and the seasoning on everything was delicious. Also, The elote exceeded my expectations. The ambiance was energetic and fun. Lastly, the waitress was so nice and helpful!!

    My friends and I had a tasty dinner at Rreal Tacos in Midtown. Not pictured were our cocktails and I got the Fresco Cucumber and it was so refreshing! We decided to get the taco platter which was the best choice we could have made (definitely recommend)! The ambiance was amazing as always we sat outside and the lighting was perfect, where we sat was great and our server was amazing. My favorite taco was the Tempura Fish it was so good I can't wait to have it again!

    First time visiting Real Tacos and we came during the Christmas season--such a great choice. The holiday decorations were on point and gave the place a super fun, festive vibe that immediately set the mood. It was definitely busy (which honestly says a lot), but the food was absolutely worth it. Everything we tried was really good--flavorful, comforting, and clearly made with care. From the tacos to the sides and even dessert, nothing disappointed. Overall, great atmosphere, great food, and a lively energy. Even with the crowd, we had a really good experience. Will definitely be back!

    Rreal tacos can do no wrong in my eyes. I've been to a lot of their locations in Atlanta and the food is amazing every time. I've gone to this midtown location several times as well. This location has a small intimate vibe so the wait times can be almost an hour or longer if you don't make a reservation. Although we went in with a party of 12 and got seated in 20 mins, so I guess we got lucky. Shared the taco combo and the quesadilla grande with a friend. Both were excellent and filling.

    Came here to enjoy happy hour after work last week. I do enjoy the aesthetic. This restaurant brings when it comes to the holiday decorations. I do feel as if this would be a great place if you are wanting to bring any of your friends or a loved one for a fun holiday date night. When we went, it was a little busy and we did have a large party being that there were quite a few of my coworkers. Therefore, service I wouldn't say was intentionally slow because I do feel like they were trying their best. I just wanted to point that out in case you do come with a large party. But overall, the customer care I think was pretty solid. I ended up just ordering some drink drinks and they were delicious. A little on the strong side, but of course that can be subjective. I've had some of their food and appetizers before so I can definitely say that they do have tasty and flavorful food. I just did an order any this time. As far as parking, it's located in the parking deck that you do have to pay for. However, they do have an hour and a half to I believe maybe two hour parking voucher. It is located on a busy intersection in Midtown so keep that in mind when you were thinking of the time you were going to Overall, definitely recommend like I said if you're wanting to have a nice happy hour or dinner with your friends or loved one!

    The shrimp tacos were incredible perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The al pastor tacos were good too, just not as standout as the shrimp. The chips with the trio dip were amazing super fresh and the dips all hit in different ways. The ambience was so fun! They had the best Halloween decor I've seen anywhere creative, detailed, and really added to the vibe. Between the food, the energy, and the atmosphere, this place is definitely worth a visit.

    So you already know how this Taco spot is. This one has a really nice ambiance, has indoor and outdoor patio seating, and it's still just as lively. You can have to find parking on your own. It's not going to be free most likely, so just keep that in mind because remember you're in midtown. The wall of of alcohol is immaculate here, but I think that all of the walls of bottles are pretty dope and all of these locations. But the ambiance is really good. The last time I went they had Halloween decorations up so they really get into the theme. A nice location, but it does feel like it's a little bit smaller or cramped. I don't know if they put the table so close together to where you feel like that but that's the only gripe I have with this one, the tables seem like they're right on top of each other so you could extend your elbow and touch somebody else lol. The indoor is nice, the outdoor patio area is very large so it's almost the same size as the inside. So you have some options and it's fully enclosed so you don't have to worry about the weather. I like all of these establishments just in general so I don't have any issues with them at all. I usually go for the pork belly because it's to die for to me. But I'm always going to support rreal Taco.

    I came here with my friend to get our Galentines on and what a great place to pick. I was able to find parking right out front. I enjoyed the love margarita for my cocktail. We shared a heart shaped birria pizza. My friend got the nachos and I enjoyed the cheese dip, esquites, and tres leches. We celebrated with some shots. The service was great. Our sever Mellie was awesome and the Valentines decorations were super cute.

    On a recent trip to Atlanta I decided to try a few places that were on Diners Drive inns and Dives. I was lucky to be staying in a hotel very close to Rreal Tacos. The place is excellent, an oasis is a busy midtown. I sat on the patio and was comfortable. I had a magnificent mango margarita and 2 killer tacos. Korean chicken and Asian rib eye. They were both delicious. Service is outstanding and the atmosphere is festive. Enjoy this great place.

    Chips and queso...pass. Grade: D

    I needed some grub late night on a weeknight and searched UberEats high and low for something decent. I came across this place and decided to place an order - 3 grilled chicken tacos (Adobo Grilled Chicken, onions and cilantro, added shredded cheese) along with an order of chips and queso. The 3 tacos ($4.49 each) were about $2.25 higher on the app, BUT they were running a special, BOGO for $15.75...couldn't pass this up! Taste and presentation - tacos were absolutely delicious. The 6 taco order became several meals for me, quick and easy! Chips - crispy, crunchy, great seasoning. Why do they lose a star, you ask? The queso. It sucks. There is absolutely zero flavor to it. They should had some jalapeños, something. It's just so bland it isn't worth it. Overall, I will order from here again, without hesitation! Grade - A

    Cool logo design on everything.

    This place has been on my list for quite a while. After seeing them featured on DDD's a while back, I knew I had to get there at some point. During an unexpected layout caused by recent ice storms, we finally had the opportunity. I am sure glad we did. I think the weather kept most people away, but the place was still pretty full. Some people even choose to sit outside in the "enclosed" patio area. Most of them got 14" tall margaritas to keep warm. Both the food and the service were amazing. Two separate managers stopped by our table to make sure everything was going well. Slow than usual night? We tried the elote corn appetizer, a chicken burrito bowl, and four tacos (al pastor, shrimp, barbacoa, and picanha steak). The only change I would make is the order in which I ate them. The picanha, which I saved for last, should have gone first. It was so juicy that the shell could not stay together when I finally got to it. Like I said, everything tasted wonderful. I tried all three of the house sauces, and the "MAS HOT" is defiantly that. Both the mild and regular hot were delicious (without causing lasting damage to your taste buds). We will absolutely be going back for more as soon as we can.

    Wow!! Phenomenal quesabirras! Didn't even need extra sauce. The corn in the cup was so yummy! Just like elote minus the cob. Food was quick and fresh. Great service! Highly recommended!

    Overall good tacos and lively environment. Went on a Friday night and the hostess originally said a 50 min wait and before we could get down the side walk we received the text for the table being ready. Service in general with food/drinks was quick. I had the shrimp taco and picanho(very flavorful) I had the Texas margarita.. also really good. Would def go back to try other food items

    The first time I tried to come to El Rey Del Taco, I couldn't find a parking spot. I've been back…read morethree times since then, and I understand the hype. 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!

It was a little pricey at $14 for 3 small-ish tacos, but each taco was packed with meat. I also got a taco de la abuela with pastor meat. For their street tacos, they have normal street tacos for $3.25, or for $0.25 more you can get the same taco with a handmade tortilla (aka taco de la abuela). I didn't try a normal taco, so not sure if there's a notable difference in the tortilla, but I thought the pastor taco was solid as well. I felt like perhaps it was lacking a little in flavor? But I do appreciate the amount of meat that's given. The slices of pineapple are nice as well - very authentic. Throughout my dining experience, most customers were picking up/taking orders to go. The restaurant is kept clean and there's a serve yourself salsa bar. I'm glad that I've found a good taco spot nearby! Parking is a bit limited as the lot is small and is shared with other small restaurants as well.

We waited only a few minutes and was able to navigate the small lot to get a spot. There is a designated window for pre-orders and walk-ups have a separate line. It wasn't that long when we were there, but was out the door when we left. Ordering was easy as we got a chance to preview the paper menu, and we were given a card to place on our table once we found it. There was plenty of seating options despite the full lot, but it was nice out so a lot of people were out on the patio with views of the busy intersection. The decor was modern and airy. We checked out the salsa bar while we waited for our appetizer and I found the jalapeno roasted garlic, which was spicy and amazing!! Our appetizer was the con queso and I added chorizo, which I highly recommend. It was plenty for our party of 4 and they'll give you more chips if you need them for the amount of dip you get, just ask. I got one each of the steak, chicken, and carnitas tacos on corn tortillas.

Rather than kicking him out the manager came over, took his order and gave him a free dinner. Quietly, without causing a fuss. In the world we live in today the kindness is refreshing.

    Halal tacos in a small store in a gas station - how can you get more authentic than that?…read more The meats served here are all halal, which is great! I got the beef Birria, steak Birria, and barbacoa tacos. The consommé itself was a little watery and tomato-y, but the tacos themselves were of decent quality and flavor. The beef Birria was better IMO than the steak, which was a little chewier. The barbacoa was definitely hands down my favorite - out of them it was the most flavorful and tender. The salsas they gave on the side were good too - spicy, tangy. The seating in the store is very limited (only a few tables, not well spaced out), large groups would be hard to accommodate.

I believe the meats here are halal. The crust of both the taco and quesadilla were crispy and had a nice cheese crunch. But trying other birria spots, these were okay. Good but nothing that would wow. The consome dip was actually pretty watered down. I know places make them differently as I've had versions with meat bits in them and another with rice. But their version was just watered down. The shrimp ratio was pretty sad. The beef is actually more bang for your buck. Though I didn't truly count the shrimps, there were about 3 or 4 of those baby shrimps. They didn't look nor tasted like they were doused in flavor. The shrimp was just so so. Sort of bland in taste imo. The beef had a nice kick of flavor. There was a good amount of beef to my surprise. Another friend's beef taco version looked like it was stuffed with meat as well. There was just ample seasoning and flavor with the beef. Psst. If you're thinking x3 tacos vs x1 whole quesadilla, go with the quesadilla. You're sort of getting another piece since the quesadilla is cut into four quadrants versus just 3 tacos. Though it's a different form on presentation, you're going to be getting more for the same exact price.

We realized this and pulled up the menu, but it didn't allow us to place the order so we waited (longer than is typical) for a server. Eventually she came, and our food started arriving shortly after ordering. Bar drinks took a lot longer. We didn't see the server again, but tried the QR code again and found we could pay online. Without anyone to ask for to-go boxes, we took our plates to the bar and asked there. It all felt a bit awkward; self-service is fine, but this hybrid model was just frustrating. None of the servers we tried to flag made eye contact. This model needs much better staff training to work.
