    El Maracuyas

    FIRST OF ALL - GREAT SERVICE I am glad I went to this spot instead of where I was planning to go. Decor was festive and true to the zest and spice of the food. Casual indoor and outdoor seating. I sat at the bar. Several TVs. Food came out pretty quickly, but what I can't stop raving about was the salsa. I have NEVER tasted such thing in my life. I wasn't expecting the chunky pieces, the flavor was top notch. I would go back just for the salsa. The waiter could tell how much I was enjoying it and brought another complimentary salsa. Then my salad came. Now the dressing was citrusy, but I enjoyed it. Chicken may have been slightly over cooked but it was good. The cocktail I had was tequila and passion fruit and some other stuff. But those were the constant flavors. Enjoyed myself, I'm sure in the evening and weekends the vibe is all the way up.

    This was an adhoc lunch spot for my work crew this week. Very mixed reviews around the table. Average=3* Two of us order the ship tacos. 2/5 at best. They were greasy, floppy, and extremely under seasoned. We both asked for jalapeño to give it a little more kick and were up-charged for a tablespoon of chopped canned jalapeños that didn't kick at all. The shrimp salad and burrito rated 4/5. I was also told that their drink selection and bar variety brought one of the group up to a 5/5 on the drinks alone. It's a small, but cute place. Service was so-so. We struggled to get waters refilled during a slow-ish lunch hour. Probably not great for big groups.

    Came here for happy hour with some friends. I like the decorations. Service was slow, portions were small, and the house margarita did not taste good at all. They do have a very good selection of tequila. They may have the best tequila bar in town. Chips and salsa are good. Fish tacos are very small. Rice and beans are tasty. Service was slow. They only have street parking.

    The drinks and nachos were the highlight of our dinner haha. We killed those nachos in 5 mins probably one of the best nachos we've had in a while. Margaritas were so yummy perfect balance however the enchiladas sauce was a bit on the sour side and the quesadillas were veg but lacking flavor. I also got charged for every modification I made from chicken to veg not sure why but also wasn't informed of this. We also got tres leches at the end and that hit the spot as well. Overall, loved this Mexican joint maybe just for apps and drinks

    The food is super fresh and well prepared. You don't walk away hungry... has an old Mexican diner feel and the service is spot on!

    Overpriced with tiny portions and slow service. At $5 a taco, I expected something decent but instead got dry, flavorless fillings and tiny portions. The fish taco came with a tough piece of fish and a few onions. The shrimp taco was a mush of onions and mushrooms and no shrimp in sight. Both were bland and dry, with no sauce or lime provided, even though others at our table got them. I asked one of the servers for lime he nodded, never came back, and I was still charged 50 cents for a single slice. Our actual server was nowhere to be seen after filling our water, and only came back when it was time to pay.

    Antiguo Lobo is a great spot for some good Mexican food. They had plenty of options to pick from on their menu. Their guac is very unique and it was delicious! I highly recommend trying it! My burrito was just okay, it was tasty but nothing special. The atmosphere was welcoming, the staff was friendly and the prices are reasonable. Overall it was a great experience.

    Antiguo Lobo exceeded all expectations--10/10! We visited on a Thursday night with a large party and made last-minute reservations, but they accommodated us easily. The service was excellent, but the real highlight was the food. The salsa to start was spot-on: perfect consistency with just the right amount of heat. I tried the Ponche Margarita (a holiday special), and it was amazing--fruity but not overly sweet. The enchiladas verdes were outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience and can't wait to come back!

    Amazing food and service every time we visit this restaurant. The enchilada Mole is some of the best I've had.

    Family friendly place with a delicious menu. I got the berria tacos. I wish it came with the consome' for dipping the tacos. There is outsized seating. Service was excellent!

    Just came here for drinks & unfortunately they were close to closing, so I didn't get the full experience. But I will say I love the space & decor. It's cute for a dress up or dress down situation. I'm not sure if they have their own parking, but there are spots on the street, a parking deck, & an open lot behind it. The drinks were bomb! I'll have to be back to try out the food as well.

    I had a good experience at Antiguo Lobo Mexicano & Agave Bar in downtown Chamblee. Simply put, this place has good food, good drinks, good service, and a fun vibe. Antiguo Lobo opened in July 2021. It's from the same family behind a bunch of Mexican restaurants in metro Atlanta over the past several decades including the Monterrey and El Ranchero restaurants. Antiguo Lobo is Spanish for ancient wolf. The restaurant doesn't have dedicated parking. My friends and I parked for free on the street. A couple of us parked around the corner on Chamblee Dunwoody Way. Another parked on Peachtree Road. The Southbound lot across the street is off-limits to Antiguo customers. This place is popular. I don't think they generally take reservations. It's first come, first served. However, during our visit, I saw them combine two tables in the back and put "Reserved" signs on them. Maybe you can make a reservation if you have a large group. The tables are small here. We visited on a Thursday night for dinner. It was busy and at one point, the dining room was completely packed. The atmosphere was fun and lively. It was loud, but not too loud. This isn't a big place. The bar and dining room are colorfully decorated with neat artwork and fixtures and cool ambient lighting. To me, it's a well-done, modern version of a casual Mexican restaurant. The food and drink menus offered a nice variety while at the same time were relatively streamlined. Along with an assortment of tacos and burritos, Antiguo also featured small and large plates with items such as Esquites (Mexican street corn, $9) and Cochinita (pibil, Yucatan-style slow-roasted pork, $18). Drinks included cocktails (margaritas, mostly $9-12 each) and beer. $10-13 lunch specials are available Monday-Friday, 11:30am-2:30pm. Three of us split an order of the Steak Nachos ($14) and the Molcajete El Monstruo ($40) and it was more than enough food. The portion sizes were large and filling. The Steak Nachos were delicious. You can ask for the steak to be cooked to a certain temperature. We asked for our steak to be rarer because the last time one of my friends had this dish, the steak was too well-done and tough for their liking. It turned out great. The strips of steak were savory and tender. There was plenty of steak along with queso, guac, crema, pico de gallo, lettuce, and tomato. Overall, this dish was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The Molcajete El Monstruo was perfect for sharing. I've ordered molcajetes at various Mexican restaurants over the years. They're all a little different. What made Antiguo's molcajete unique to me was its relatively-compact presentation (but still, a lot of food) and the large amount of tomatillo cream salsa in the molcajete itself (it looked like a soup). Maybe the compact presentation is due to Antiguo's smaller table sizes. I'm used to molcajete spreads taking up a lot more room. Antiguo's molcajete came with strips of steak, grilled chicken, and grilled queso fresco plus grilled shrimp and slices of tomato draped around the edges of the molcajete. Corn tortillas, wrapped in foil, were underneath the molcajete with a plate of rice, refried black beans, and chorizo on the side. This dish also came with green onion and nopal (cactus). Everything was delicious. Like the steak that came with the nachos, the molcajete steak was tender. The chicken could've been more tender, but it wasn't bad. I think they used breast. Decent smoky flavor. The tomatillo cream salsa went well on everything. My favorite part was the chorizo (flavorful) and I also really enjoyed the rice and beans (appetizing). Overall, this was just a solid-quality molcajete. One thing they could do is throw in more tortillas with the molcajete. I think there were only four. We went through them quickly and had to order more ($2.50, I believe for four as well). You have the choice of corn or flour. We ordered more corn. The complimentary chips and salsa were really good. They have a refreshing and mild-tasting salsa that's just the right balance of chunky and runny. The chips were fresh and medium thickness, so not too hard and crunchy and not too delicate either. I ordered a house margarita, La Loba ($9), and I loved it. It was nice and strong, but it didn't taste that way. It was ice cold, refreshing, and hit the spot. La Loba is made with el Jimador Tequila, lime, agave, and Combier liqueur with a Colima Sea Salt rim. It was a really tasty margarita and I was very happy with it. One of my buddies got a Dos Esquis Ambar Especial draft beer ($6). When we visited, Antiguo had six beers on draft including a couple local brews from Contrast Artisan Ales (Chamblee) and Tucker Brewing Company. Service was great. Our server was Jimena and she was terrific. So was everyone else we interacted with. One of the staff noticed my friend didn't have a place to put her purse and my rain jacket. He grabbed a rack for us and brought it to our table.

    Looking for a fun place for date night and had another winner! This was some of the best Mexican food that we have had in a while. We were definitely a part of the clean plate club! I had the birria tacos and charro beans had that cooked all day feel-comfort food! Skinny spicy marg was the perfect amount of heat. I will definitely be back!

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!

We weren't given menus and the host disappeared without explaining that the menu was QR code only. 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.

If I'm paying $19, I expect a flawless burrito. I was also confused as to why the menu labeled the item as langostino. It was a normal shrimp and quite deceptive to call it langostino (which translates to langoustine from Spanish). For the record, for a $19 burrito, I only received 3 "langostino" or "giant shrimp" which really was just a regular shrimp nestled in semi-cooked rice and bean. I did get 2 thin slices of avocado. The tacos taquero de bonemarrow was a simple taco with a side of bone marrow. For $28, I'd expect something with more substance and frankly, a little more seasoning. Tacos were quite bland and I luckily had a packet of salt in the car. The bone marrow was nice, but I wouldn't consider 4 small tacos and 1 bone marrow to be equivalent to $28. I saw good reviews online and wanted to try this place out to see Mexican food outside of CA. This place is mediocre and I'm certain there are other better places one can venture to in Atlanta. Service was okay. I called for takeout and paid in advance for my order. Parking is in an apartment complex building (maybe?) and you do have to walk out to find the store.

Blending Mexican, regional American, and other Latino cultures as early as the 70s, many of the metro restaurants are some of the first Mexican restaurants to open in their respective ATL bubbles. All restaurants are known for their fajitas, margaritas, and use of fresh ingredients. Over the decades, I have regularly frequented the Doraville location (on Buford Highway right inside of the perimeter). It is one of my go-to spots for celebrating, reconnecting, venting, and exhaling. I've laughed, argued, and cried sitting in one of the back right booths. Service is on par for a casual restaurant. If you drink, plan on spending a couple of hours. Their margaritas, sangrias, and sangritas are not for the once-in-a-blue-moon drinker. Over the years, I've developed a sensitivity to triple sec that keeps me from drinking non-craft margaritas. Fortunately, there are other tasty beverages on the menu. Monterrey has lunch specials that carry into the weekend. My go-to order is the fajitas. I also enjoy their enchiladas, chicken tacos, and chimichangas. I can eat 2 bowls of chips by myself with their amazing salsa and queso dips (I love mine with jalapeños and chorizo, but my order depends on who I am with).
