This restaurant reopened on april 25th. 2024..they built a brand new location...i arrived today around 4pm.on april 26th Saturday..it was not that crowded..however guest were complaining about the long wait to get their food...my actual wait was 28 minutes, before my number was called to get my 2 beef hard shell tacos...1 hot dog..and 1 serving of coleslaw...food orders were called out randomly...example number 180 was called before 167....177 was called after 155....the staff seemed unprepared, and poorly trained to deal with their recent grand opening...as i got to my location to eat,i noticed not spoon,or fork was in the bag,for my coleslaw...no napkins...no taco sauce..etc....the taco meat was not seasoned well, taco bell tacos taste better...the hotdog,was poor quality pork meat, and it was the smallest hotdog, ive ever purchased..,it was completely over saturated with ketchup.....poor customer service...Be advised....many customers stated this restaurant didn't have many of these issues at their older previous location.. read more

First and last time. Cashier seemed irritated because I asked for beef nachos. I was told there was no such item only chili cheese / with sour cream and peppers. As you can, no sour cream or peppers. The beef, chicken, and steak listed on the menu only pertains to the taco salad. With that being said, she allowed me to order cheese nachos and add chicken, but for whatever reason the same didn't apply when I placed my order for beef. read more

Taco Pete is a small stand right in the middle of the city. They've got enough parking to make it simple and a few tables outside if you want to eat out there, but for the most part it's a window - you make your order, wait, then leave. I've only had the tacos (soft shell) here so far, but each time I have - they've been delicious. There's 4 options: Beef, Chicken, Steak, and Shrimp. I'll say that 3 of them will fill you up, but hey YOLO go for the 4th too. Seriously, good tacos and about 8 people in front of me ordered wings, so I'm going to assume that they're good; especially since a standard wing place is less that 11 steps in front of it and they didn't go there. read more

Spicy chicken taco street style is definitely fire! Nice location and set up .service also quick.

So I'm lost in how I was treated today the cashier was very very rude . Making smart comments. Closing the window when he called my name. Even other customers where looking and shaking their heads this my last time eating here. read more

Taco Pete - The window - Mexican Near Me - East Point, Georgia

Their system went down during my first visit here. They are out of LA and the food is pretty good they have turkey burgers, hamburgers, chicken wings, chili dogs, tacos, burritos, etc. If you have a special order make sure you double check and triple check your order before you leave! read more

I've driven past here for years and never stopped. Well that all changed bcuz I will frequent this place from now on. The name itself has been having a big buzz more now than ever for some reason. I ordered a hard shell chicken taco w/ sauce on the side for my appetizer. Super delish! Also, needed to try the wings bcuz we live in Atlanta where we are known for our wings! This LA based company did the damn thing. Adaptation spot on. Very meaty, nice sized wings. To add, I ordered a side of beans for my son. Nice flavor. && for the main dish, I ordered a stuffed steak quesadilla that came w/ taco sauce and sour cream on the side. I ate half for lunch the next day. Super filling! Overall, it leaves you wanting more. Reminds me of cartoon food. lol read more

I recently visited this establishment & the service was something that I have never experience in life as a business owner or customer. My friend & I visited because I had wanted to support & I love tacos. Well it definitely wasn't what I expected. The young lady took our order, I paid & asked for a receipt. I advised her that the order was wrong & she advised me to read a sign about policy. They refused to correct the order, the conversation turned into a staff member calling me several inappropriate names & threating to assault me, because I asked for my money back. They eventually fixed the food with the order that was incorrectly placed & I left. I was discussing this situation w/ my friends neighbor & to my surprise she had a similar experience at this business as well. The worst part is that owner/manger witness this situation. Avoid this business at all cost, they don't accept accountability in no way. read more

Tacos were very small, 2 bites and your done... I had the shrimp taco it was actually pretty good, but like I said it was over by the first bite... I also got the steak taco,,which seems like a cheap quality steak almost reminded me of dog food, because it was more on the pot roast side... for the price the shells need to get a little bit bigger... read more

Yea, so Taco Pete. "Great Food as Fast as We can" (the sign above the window as you order) ... how about as slow as we can" I understand the demand. I understand wanting the food to be hot and fresh, but dammit it doesn't take 45 minutes for 4 tacos! ....and don't blame it on the lunch rush b/c if you know you're going to have one, that's even more reason for the biz to have it together...ready and prepared for the hungry patrons - who btw clearly keep coming regardless of how long it takes. But not today Taco Pete. Not today. This is it! Btw: im still waiting as I write this review. ‍‍ #lostagoodcustomer #getittogether #nottoday #notevw read more

Wings and Tacos! I ordered a 20 piece of lemon pepper wings which were on the small side but pretty flavorful. My friend ordered her usual for her and her 2 kids: 4 chicken soft tacos and 2 beef soft shell tacos. I ordered a taco salad, no shell or beans. The ordering process was a bit frustrating. We called while in route a few dozen times but no one answered the phone. So we had to order at the window. The food was ready in 10 minutes or so. Everything was yummy and a great value. read more

This place may be classified as a hole in the wall taco stand but my God that is so not the case as far as the food is concerned. Let me just say this, I ordered two beef hard shell tacos and a Shrimp Stuffed Quesadilla and I forgot to take pics of it because the food was calling my name. One bite of my Quesadilla and I was in Mexican Food Heaven. The blend of Jalapeño peppers, cheese, fresh cilantro, onion and tender grilled shrimp had me in another world. It comes in 4 pieces. I coukd only eat 3 of them. The grilled shrimp are a nice size, never rubbery and nicely seasoned. My tacos are truly the bomb! The flavors just take you there seriously. The funny thing is there is a Taco bell chain across the street that have nothing on this place whatsoever. All I'm going to say is the flavor will explode as soon as you take one bite. #100 read more

I've been loving this place since my first encounter in 2018! From their delicious saucy/dry wings depending on how you want it, to their scrumptious tacos I love taco Pete's food! I even arrived near closing time before and was STILL accommodated, isn't that bomb! I've purchased the quesadillas, wings, tacos and nachos all from here and it was full of flavor each time. Def a must have when I'm in east point! read more

Food was ready quick. Burrito was kinda small. I ordered chicken nachos. The beans that were supposed to be on there were not. The cheese was not melted or anything. I expected queso or at least melted cheese. Cold shredded cheese. Everything was cold with chips on the side. They were the kinda chips that you would get at a concession stand and they were stale and inedible. If this was a dine-in restaurant I would've sent my food back and left but I didn't see or taste my food until I got home. All the toppings were pretty flavorless. The sauce added a bit of flavor but it couldn't save it. Looking back there's a chance they accidentally gave me the salad. The salads and nachos are together on the menu and when rung up I double checked with the girl taking my order that I was getting nachos and not a salad and she confirmed. But that would be the only explanation for what I received. There's still no excuse for the stale chips and lack of beans. I hadn't eaten all day and was starving. I took two bites and put it down. I want my money back. read more

I reallyyyyyyyy like Taco Pete but tonight really made me change my mind. I ordered a 6 piece wing combo and only received 5 wings. Attempted two calls to reach someone about this matter. Both attempts were unsuccessful with no option to leave a voicemail. You guys have been in business too long to make simple mistakes like. Although it's only one wing it's a wing I paid for. The wings were delicious just don't appreciate that ONE wing missing :( !! read more

I gotta say, I was rather disappointed with the quality of service and the taste of the food. The nachos with chicken were served with this movie theater, nacho cheese that was slopped all over the chips, which created a lovely mess. The beef tacos if this is even possible, had barely any color and little to no seasoning as well as the chicken that was served in the taco that was also served on the chicken nachos with no flavoring as well. We've been waiting for this place to open since the rebuild started and it was absolutely disappointing. read more

My daughter and I called in our order for pick up, not familiar with the area. We ordered 2 chicken tacos that were delicious and we also ordered a shrimp quesadilla which was a little expensive for what we got, it could have used a little more seasoning but overall we were happy with our experience read more

First time I've ever ate here and I'm mad that they are closing down for the next 6 months while they remodel the tacos were amazing . You go up and place your order and wait for your name to be called . I recommend this over Taco Bell any day . Very good authentic tacos. Will be back!! 10/10 read more

I visited Taco Pete today and I am a fan. I had a shrimp taco, chicken taco and a steak taco all with a soft shell. In addition, I also had the beans. Everything that I had was really good. The soft shell tacos are corn instead of flour, which is a plus for me. They are similar to how I make them when I make tacos at home. My favorite was between the chicken or the steak. I am giving 4 starts instead of 5 because I went for lunch around 1:30 and they were already out of beef. I wanted to try a beef taco in a hard and soft shell. I guess I will have to return to try the beef taco. The beans were good, but there was something in them that was extremely overpowering and off balance. It may have been the coriander. It may have been today's batch so I will trying them again for sure. I am a fan and I will return and try different things on their menu. I did not wait that long for my food, but I only order three tacos and beans. Service was exactly what I would expect at a walk up taco stand. read more

Stopped by Taco Pete while out Ubering because i'd seen a number of times while in College Park. They have a number of menu items but if Taco is in the name, you gotta try them. I ordered 3 beef tacos and they came out pretty fast. Given the looks I got from others who had ordered before me I guess it was fast since I received my order before they did. The soft tacos we're good not great. As you can see from the photos they were slightly greasy and were a tad bit spicy. Not sure exactly where the spice was coming from but I did not necessarily like it. If I want heat, I prefer to add it my self. All in all good tacos with from a convenient taco stand with outdoor seating. read more

Just as the previous reviewer mentioned , the cashier was very rude . This was going to be my first time trying taco Pete after a recommendation from a friend and he was being rude to both of us . Since I was a new patron , I had questions about toppings on the tacos which is not displayed on outside menu. When we inquired his exact words were " What does that menu say ?" We tell him it doesn't display and then he proceeds to give us the detailed menu . So we step to the side to review the menu he opens the second window and yells " You pick up here , and order here!" There's no way I can patronize a business with an employee who treats customers as if we are headaches . read more

The food is always amazing no matter what you order . The chili cheese dog is the best in the business. Tacos 5 star

I love your food and I think it is probably one of the best window service taco places in the city. But the only reason why I give you two stars is you guys will not answer your phone and then I have to come and stand in line and wait for my car. I really wish you guys would just pick up the phone. Today I tried to call once again and you didn't answer the phone so I went somewhere else. I look back on my phone history try and call you guys on the number listed on the Internet and in the last year I have called you guys 263 times I will not call again. I have gone to the other place down the street now at least three dozen times because you will not answer your phone. I don't know day when it's raining and last thing I wanna do is stand in line. Answer your phone read more

Taco Pete had good soft tacos. Be aware that this isn't the fastest place. The wait to order at lunchtime was about 20-25minutes and then another 10-15 minutes for the food to come out. Limited seating/parking available. It looks like most people just get a to-go order. While I thought the soft tacos were good - not too greasy - prepare to get your hands messy when you eat. Ask for some extra napkins. I actually think I ordered the wrong items. My coworkers loved the burrito varieties with potato in it. So thats a better choice. Also they charge for water. read more

Outstanding Soft Chicken Taco! It barely fit in the Tortilla and the sauce is incredible. There isn't a lot of parking and you'll likely have to wait in line. The Cashier was very friendly and I could see the guys in the shack working as fast as they could. read more

Taco Pete! Mannnnnn! We fell in love with this little spot (& it is little) on our first visit. The chicken tacos are an amazing burst of favor and goodness in your mouth. We were pleasantly surprised! So if you're scrolling through reviews trying to decide where to go .... stop. Go here! Thank me later! read more

I have tried their shrimp quesadilla which is so good and their tacos are pretty good with that sauce on the side. I hear they have really good burgers I'm definitely gonna try them. They're just usually very packed during lunch hours read more

Whoever was taking orders today it's was awful .. told her I didn't want any lettuce on my tacos four times and she ask me 3 times and they still got it wrong .. and whoever the manger is was very rude... then going say it ain't nothing they can do .... I know my little 50 dollars a month i spend might not mean nothing but they just lost a customer... I have been coming here for years and this is the worst it has ever been and the food was cold .. smh never would come here again read more

This is one of the BEST restaurants in East Point. It is family owned and all of the locals eat here. You should check it out. Great service. I just miss living down there...This was my favorite place to eat. If you are a visitor staying overnight at a hotel...this place is worth a taxi ride. Xoxo read more

these are the best tacos that I have tried in atlanta. it's the red sauce for me. I used to have an issue with these because they were soggy but when I went one day this girl ordered her sauce to the side and so I started ordering mine like that ever since but since then they have started serving it with the sauce on the side. I think this was a very good move and surprised they didn't do it sooner. this is my favorite spot but I have an issue with the fact that if they make a mistake they look at you as if it is their problem. I pay too much for these tacos for them to mess up and try not to do right by me as a paying customer. for instance, I ordered extra cheese on each taco and instead I got NO CHEESE. when I went back to complain they looked at me like they absolutely didn't know what to do and then finally the cook just asked me if I wanted some cheese and put it in the cup for me. I personally like hot cheese on my taco on the bottom with the meat (which is how they make them - which is why they are one of my favorites) and the cook should know that there is a difference in taste when the cheese is cold on top rather than melted with the meat. anyway, I took them and heated them up at home. I also don't order lettuce on my tacos for this reason - they have been serving them kind of cold lately which I don't understand why. so I end up heating them up at home which doesn't work for me because ion eat hot lettuce. anyway, clearly they good af because with all these issues I'm still bout to put on my slides and head down for beef taco, shrimp taco and one steak taco. let's hope they are open this time cuz they been closed randomly lately. read more

Came on a rainy day so my wait time wasn't long at all unlike many other reviewers. I ordered the taco salad and was a bit disappointed because it looked and tasted more like nachos than a salad. The flavor wasn't bad, it just wasn't what I expected. So I decided to order chicken and beef soft tacos. In my opinion the chicken was much more tastier than the ground beef. Also I appreciate that she put the sauce on the side. I'll give this place another try, seems that ppl talk about how great the wings and turkey burgers are. read more

Always delicious and expertly seasoned! I had a shrimp & steak quesadilla! It's well worth the wait!

Holy YUM!! Found this place via Yelp and I am SO GLAD I did!! There was a line of about 4 or 5 other people when I got there at 2:30 today (a weekday) with 5 or 6 others waiting for their food, so they were surprisingly busy. I would definitely recommend calling ahead if you're in a hurry. I waited about 20 minutes for my food. The parking lot is pretty small (fits like 10 cars) and I was able to snag the last spot. Come here. Get the soft tacos. Enjoy!!! I got two soft chicken tacos (at $2.25 a pop) and I wish I had just one more. The pulled chicken is seasoned well, the taco also has lettuce, tomato, cheese, onion, and cilantro. The people in front of me ordered them with sour cream and I think it was called "fully loaded" when you do that. The soft tortilla is lightly fried, enough to give you a bite and greasy fingers, but not enough to really crunch. So delicious. I ate the first one in the car and these are definitely the type of tacos to be eaten fresh. The taco was amazing, I only wished I had some hot sauce to add some umph. I got home to eat my second taco and then realized the hot sauce was in the bag! Score!! Can't wait to come back (will probably be in just a few days!!!) read more

The AA girl that works the register with the blondish ponytail is rude and I'd never come here again or recommend. I cannot. Like I will not and I refuse. Anyone that can yell at customers (on a microphone) for no apparent reason..lol I can only imagine what she/they are doing to the food back there. Negative! read more

Went to Taco Pete yesterday ( a Friday evening) and ordered three tacos. Their payment machine will give you all the trouble in the world and reads "Remove your card Wait to continue" all in one message. Weird but I pushed through. My friend and I asked how long was the wait and we were told 15 mins, which is long for tacos but we were like ok. Sooooooo 30 mins we are standing in the cold, windy night and inquired about our orders to which the woman manning the stand (taking orders and such) tells us with major attitude, that there were a lot of orders and she'll let us know when the order was ready. She then proceeded to get an attitude with other customers who already paid and were inquiring about their orders as well. Once we finally got our tacos, 35 mins after ordering...they....were....cold! The paper that they use to wrap them up in does not keep them warm and when we reheated the tacos at home, they fell apart. Would not recommend. read more

I give them 4 stars cause it's been more than once where I had to wait on my food a long time...& the fries came out cold buttttt besides that, THEY HAVE THE BEST TACOS IN ATLANTA.... I get the shrimp soft shell tacos and they are so good... it's the taco Pete sauce for me... a fast you can't describe..& the seasonings for the fries are good too! go check them out!! But it's not a fast food spot.. read more

Taco Pete - Beef Quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - East Point, Georgia

It's small, in a busy location, and unassuming, but they make fantastic food! The guys that work there are very friendly and can give recommendations. The full menu is on their website, versus what they have posted on the wall outside the place. We got a shrimp burrito, a couple chicken burritos, a quesadilla, and a hot dog. The burritos and quesadilla were excellent. The chicken was marinated in something very flavorful, and the potatoes and the shrimp burrito had perfect seasoning. It was much better than I expected, and I recommend you give it a try. You won't regret it, and you won't walk away hungry! read more
