    Taco Asada & Taco Pastor with rice and beans
    Carrie M.

    Authentic, fresh Mexican with fast, friendly service! 10/10 would eat here again and again and again!

    Barbacoa Taco!
    Dora M.

    This place is dangerously delicious! The prices are amazing for the amount of food you get, and honestly, me and my husband go here more than we probably should. Their carne asada tacos, intestina tacos, and barbacoa tacos are all absolutely delicious. The tortas are huge, flavorful, and definitely sharable if you're not a big eater. And don't even get me started on the horchata -- it's to die for. The ambiance is amazing if you choose to dine in -- super welcoming, clean, and comfortable. And the staff? So sweet, kind, and genuinely appreciative of their customers. It really makes the whole experience even better. I also love that they pack their salsas separately, which is such a huge convenience. I would LOVE to know if they sell their salsas by the container because they're that good. If you're looking for an amazing taco spot after a night out, this is the place to go. The only "bad" part? Just like Chick-fil-A, they're closed on Sundays! They also have a massive menu and even sell menudo. It's a great family restaurant, and it does get packed, so I highly recommend ordering pickup. 10/10 -- you won't regret it!

    MY first time visiting and I knew as soon as I drove into the parking lot, I picked a awesome spot because the line was out the door and yet it was moving fast as I got in line. The menu is well presented with very clear signs on the wall above the cashier area, the prices are very fair and service was friendly and efficient. One thing that really stood out to be was how much meat each Asada taco I don't think I have ever seen as generous of a serving with the street taco anywhere. Well I typically don't go to Athens, but I will be sure to visit this place when I'm back around lunchtime in the area.

    Awesome bean and cheese burrito experience. Tacos los plebes has quick, cost efficient, and polite! Big menu with great options all equally delicious and tortas the size of footballs. I always get a bean and cheese, taco trio, or a quesadilla with an agua frescas (mango preferably) Great bites! Awesome lunch!

    Pollo, asada and pastor tacos

    OMGosh the most delicious tacos. My spouse said "you know how I've been all over Georgia looking for tCos that come close to the authentic ones I used to get in LA? Well I finally found them." And I said I don't think I can go anywhere else now and have tacos that won't pale in comparison. We had pollo, asada and pastor and they were all good. Yummers. We will be back!! Great service and ambiance (previous huddle house diner style).

    The food was absolutely amazing and the portions were great!! I had the torta de carne asada and it was pretty big haha! The drink I had was the horchata and it was nice and creamy, they do put cinnamon on top before they close the top. Service was pretty quick and the food was a great temperature! There was music playing and the setting was nice, you could choose to eat inside or outside! They also had a little table with crotchet items. Overall, quite nice!!

    The best tacos I have ever had, plus very good prices and quick service! The handmade tortillas are SO GOOD. We love the al pastor and asada tacos, and have also tried (and enjoyed) the chorizo tacos. Make sure you try the salsas. The horchata and Coke with cane sugar are the cherries on top.

    When we were in Athens for the day, I picked out Tacos Los Plebes for us to eat lunch at due to the current 5 star rating. We were both very ready for lunch. We easily got a parking space in their own free lot. When we walked in, only 5 tables were occupied, and three groups of customers were in line ahead of us. The employee at the order counter was very quick at taking orders and ringing people up. I ordered the flautas (chicken) and R ordered a carnitas burrito. We both ordered the horchata drink. We were given a number to place on the table to let the employees serving the food know which tables to bring them to. We waiting only about 10 minutes when a smiling employee brought our food, and, boy, were we surprised at the generous portions! I got 6 crispy-on-the-outside-and-tender-on-the-inside chicken flautas. I could tell that they were fresh because the chicken inside the flautas were not crispy or hard. Also inside my basket were sides of refried beans and Mexican rice. Shredded lettuce, avocado and tomato slices and quest completely covered the flautas. Everything in the basket was so delicious, and cranked up the heat by squeezing red hot sauce onto each and every bite of the flautas. R's carnitas burrito was cut in half before it was served, and contained carnitas meat, cheese, beans, lettuce, tomato, avocado and sour cream. He also loved every bite of it, especially after adding the spicy green hot sauce. Our horchatas were very nicely done. They had just the right amount of sweetness and the cinnamon sprinkled on top of the drink was a nice touch. While we were eating, the line got much longer, eventually going out the door about 30 feet. That's a lot of people waiting to order! About half of them were take out orders. The employees are so attentive and efficient. The men's restroom needed to be cleaned up, not due to trash, and I let an employee know about it. It was cleaned up by the time R went to the restroom to wash his hands. Every time customers left after eating, employees quickly bussed and cleaned up the tables. I never saw customers wait for a table. Talking about tables, not only are there tables indoor, but there are also picnic tables available outside, out on the grass, both in front and behind the building. If you're in the Athens area, check out Tacos Los Plebes for some great Mexican food.

From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place is a local favorite. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the menu offers a great selection of traditional Mexican dishes, along with a few Salvadoran influences that make it even more unique. One of the highlights of the evening was meeting the owner, Antonio Ramirez. Throughout the meal, he made his way around the restaurant, stopping at each table with a smile to ask how everything was and to make sure guests were enjoying themselves. That level of personal attention is becoming increasingly rare and speaks volumes about how much he cares about both the food and the customer experience. It's also obvious that the local college crowd has discovered this gem. There were plenty of students enjoying dinner, and it seemed like the margaritas were especially popular--particularly when Mom and Dad were picking up the tab! Fortunately, the margaritas are well worth it, with generous pours and plenty of options to choose from. The food was excellent, the portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Most importantly, the flavors felt authentic and homemade rather than the typical chain restaurant version of Mexican food.

It's counter service--you order at the register, find a seat (there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating), and they'll bring your food out. I ordered the fish taco combo, which came with two fish tacos, yuca fries, and a canned drink. The tacos were good, but I wasn't a huge fan of the menu changes. Everything is a combo now, and I was told I couldn't order the tacos by themselves. I wish they'd bring back the à la carte option because I'd rather try a few different things than be locked into one meal. The yuca fry portion was also smaller than I expected--I only got about five fries. Overall, it's still a spot I'd recommend if you're visiting Athens since it's been a local favorite for so long. I just left a little less impressed than I remember being the last time I was here.

    Hit the trifecta for everything you don't want in a dining experience:…read more Quality: Seriously would have been more satisfied if we had gone to the Taco Bell up the street. Quantity/portions: Embarrassingly puny (not that you'd really want more of it). Price/value: Outrageously overpriced, especially considering how the food tastes and how much of it you get. Clearly seems to be more of a sports bar / hangout (e.g., big TVs everywhere, dance club music) and a place to have Mexican cocktails than a serious "taqueria." To be fair, though, and this is why they get two stars and not just one: The service was friendly and attentive.

The chorizo cheese dip had a little spice to it on the back end. It was a little too watery but with a good mix up it got better. The portion size ( got the small) was a bit disappointing. I chose the Texas fajitas. The meats ( chic steak and shrimp ) were seasoned and tender. The shrimp was just 4 pieces. Again the portion size. Under the proteins were the seasoned onions. I elected not to get bell peppers. The juice that formed with the onions was very good. They provide rice and refried beans on the side as well as lettuce and chopped tomatoes. The portion of rice beans and the melted cheese was small. They only give you three tortillas and I feel it should be 4. You have to think about the " stuff " to tortilla ratio. They give you a big bag of plain nacho chips. Plain. Not salted. We also got an order of the flan. Kind of small but good taste. The whipped cream and chocolate sauce was in a little plastic ramican the size of a papa John sauce so again one bite and you have used it up and the flan to whipped cream " ratio" is not there. I would definitely try them again for a meal on premises to get the sizzle and presentation. Once I do I will update the score if it is necessary.
