    Burrito
    Terrence M.

    Oder: Chicken Burrito and chicken Taco Pros: I just love Willys. Every time I visit GA I have to stop here for a bite to eat. The ingredients are fresh, the salsas are made from scratch, and the meat is seasoned pretty well. The service is pretty good and the establishment was clean. Cons: No cons.

    Healthy Quinoa Bowl
    David Y.

    Solid spot for fast casual food. Got the quinoa bowl and I thought it was decent for the price and enjoyed all the fresh toppings. The service was quick and to the point. If you're in the area, it's not a bad place to stop by in a pinch.

    Kids Quesadilla Kid's Combo

    My family has been patrons of this specific Willy's location for over 5yrs. The establishment is consistently clean, including the bathrooms. The food is yummy, portions are plentiful and pricing is reasonable.

    Nachos

    Quesadillas are the truth! While out shopping around on a Saturday on Barrett Parkway, my friend suggested Willy's. Claiming to only want the queso dip -lol. Well, anyone that knows me, knows that I don't play those type of games when it comes to food... when it's time to eat, it's time to eat. Lol. I ordered a quesadilla and a chicken taco ( not knowing how big the quesadilla would be ) and also a small order of queso dip. The dip was all that she said it would be and the quesadilla was really good as well, just cheese & grilled chicken :), my friend, the one who only wanted Queso enjoyed MY extra taco. Lol The service @ Willy's was fast and sweet, the lady that made my food was the sweetest ever, very patient, kept a smile on her face an even chuckled at the lame joke I made about ordering to much food. The cashier had a very nonchalant attitude, almost robotic, but that was cool too. I was in a move it along mood as well. The little salsa bar area was clean & stocked, & the beverage station was neat. Willy's will definitely see me again

    We came for Tex-Mex. We left forever changed…read more We entered Chuy's in Kennesaw as a family, unaware that fate had already taken our table and was polishing our glasses. That's when our server - McLovin' - appeared. Not rushed, not flustered, but steady. Assured. A man who knows where the ranch jalapeno dip was and wasn't afraid to use that power. He placed our waters down gently but with purpose. Cold. Clear. Limitless. From that moment on, we trusted him... with everything. The King's Memorial combos arrived like a vow. Enchiladas layered in sauce, rich and unapologetic, as if they had been simmering while thinking about us specifically. Each bite wrapped itself around my expectations and whispered, "You're not leaving the same." My wife and I locked eyes across the table -- the look married people give each other when something very right is happening, and there's no need to narrate it. Then came the burrito. My son's "Big As Yo Face" steak burrito didn't just arrive -- it claimed territory. Massive. Confident. Wrapped tight like it knew its own worth. McLovin' presented it without fear, without commentary, because when something is that powerful, words only get in the way. Throughout the meal, McLovin' moved like a man guided by instinct alone. Our waters refilled before thirst could even form the thought. Chips refilled at the precise moment emotional closure was achieved. He never hovered. He never vanished. He existed in that rare, perfect space between presence and mystery. We didn't order the always-delicious Margaritas. They weren't required. Ours was a sober, fully conscious awakening. When the meal ended, we sat there for a moment. Quiet. Changed. Hydrated. And satisfied beyond reason. We paid the bill reluctantly, knowing some experiences can't be relived -- only honored by returning. Chuy's served food. McLovin' served destiny. We will be back.

My friend Eli "Eli2rabid" was immediately uncomfortable with the way the food tasted. The waiter did not keep our drinks stalked. The food took at least an hour to come and we spent a long while waiting. In that time I could have went to a bar Mitzvah and danced to 6 different songs.

    First time to Kennesaw, and were drawn in by the look of the place. Waitresses were great, friendly…read moreand two helped serve us. Big plus that they have Coke Zero! Chips and salsa were good -- the salsa was really tasty! We added a small cheese dip, almost $7 for a small serving "bowl". Liked it but for that price, maybe a larger portion would be good? We ordered the steak fajitas to split. Portion was nice for two of us, able to make about 5 with the items. Homemade flour tortillas were nice. The refried beans were a bit bland and we don't each much rice. Overall slightly under 4 stars, maybe 3.8. Staff were a bonus!

    Stopped in for dinner on a Tuesday evening around 8:00pm…read more First impression upon arrival was "sweet patio". The restaurant is inside an old house with a massive wrap around porch featuring plenty of covered outdoor seating. As we walked to the hostess stand we noticed a sign stating they lost their liquor license. This was a massive let down as I was excited for a margarita. We almost left but decided to give it a shot. Inside was a pretty standard Mexican restaurant decor. The place was clean and looked to be well kept. Our server didn't seem too excited about life and was a bit slow and unenthusiastic. Brought our chips and salsa pretty quick and took our drink order. When he came back with our waters and soda we placed our food order. I wanted a Carne Asada which I was told is actually no longer available. This is completely bonkers to me. A staple dish at any Mexican restaurant. So I ordered something else that has skirt steak in it. Super confusing how they couldn't do that particular dish. Overall the food we ordered was actually really good. Prepared well and full of flavor. Nice size portion. Unfortunately the lack of service and margaritas really makes it tough to return. Follow me on IG: danny_runsforbeer

The food has great flavor in the portion sizes are good. Service is quick and friendly. Occasionally I will get a singular large arepa, but it's hard to pass up the sampler which has four different ones. I'm really keen on the Reina Pepiada and the Domino. Both of these come on the sampler with a steak and catira grilled. You can't sit and eat in the restaurant, it is clean and has tables, but I usually take mine to go. Sometimes I don't make it past the parking lot though before digging in lol.

    Worth a visit! So delicious! We have driven by for 3 years and finally decided to order online…read more(there is an app to order through) and pick up. I was pleasantly surprised! The sancocho with white rice - chefs kiss! The sancocho definitely had two servings worth. We also tried the sampler (1 empanada, 1 tequeno, 4 different arepas) and also a tostones dish topped with chicken, cheese, cilantro - wow! Everything was great! The bean and platano arepa was my favorite and I can't wait to go back for more. I would love to try their other dishes. We visited the kennesaw location conveniently located off of Cherokee next door to a shell gas station. Great customer service! We were instantly greeted by a sweet woman behind the counter. We did not dine in on this visit but I bet the food is even better if you dine in (as it would be fresh and hot off the stove). I can't wait to go back!

It's just a normal girls' lunch to catch up and this place has good ambiance for a small get together. We got a nice booth by the window, love the high back of the booth, which allows me to be more relaxed =) We started with the Fuego Dip, which my friend highly recommends and she was spot on. The Fuego dips includes, steak, shrimp, chicken, and chorizo; serve along side pico and tortillas. The proteins were all cooked perfectly!! The cheese has amazing flavor from all the proteins, the pico was extremely fresh, the hot tortilla is a nice touch. Wish there were more tortillas though, but the chips they gave right when you sat down works too. I ordered the Steak Fajitas, I haven't had fajitas in a while and really wanted the sizzle. When the entree arrived, it smelled so amazing and I couldn't wait to dig into it. I'm not really sure if they make their own flour tortillas, but it was fresh and soft and warmed and absolutely delicious. The bed of peppers and onions on the bottom of the steak is nicely cooked and caramelized, the steak is super tender and flavorful. There were some queso left from our appetizer and I added some into my steak fajita which elevated it to another level!! Absolutely love the food and service is on point. Will definitely be back to try something else and for more of that Fuego Dip with that warmed tortilla.

The last several times have not been good and likely our last visit. We bring our neighborhood out for special occasions often. Including here many times. I called on Wednesday and spoke to two very nice females and scheduled a party for 10-15 people for Sunday night. She asked me to call back on Sunday once I had a firm number of people. Super nice. Called at 2:30pm on Sunday and let ring for 5 minutes. No answer. No problem. Thought we'd be fine. We arrive 15 minutes early to make sure everything was fine and our requested table was taken and they acted like I did something wrong and had no reservation. THE PLACE WAS DEAD. It still took thirty minutes to find a solution and seat us. My fiancé ordered drinks while we waited with ZERO PEOPLE AT THE BAR.....15 minutes to get drinks. Sat us in this back cubby spot. Awful. No one could move. Table was massive and super wobbly. No apologies. It took us BEGGING after AN HOUR to order our food. BEGGING. The food finally arrived and not one of us received a hot meal. It was all terrible. Our personal meals were horrendous. Carne asade and tapaquinia. Both TERRIBLE and the meat was like jerky. Nothing like we've had in the past there. The server (or anyone) looked incredibly annoyed if we asked for utensils, straws, napkins. You know, essentially what you would need to eat. I worked in service for years. I would have been thrilled if on a weekend night that was DEAD I got a party. Nope. Everyone just seemed annoyed. I've never seen this manager before but he just seemed to hate his job. Not once did he apologize. Not once did he try to make anything right. We all ate our cold orders and I don't think anyone sent food back. I'm sad for this place. I guess we will have to find something else.
