I decided to check out Botica since it was a recommendation from a friend. They have a parking garage and parking is free. I sat at the bar and ordered a spicy Margarita and paella for food. The spicy margarita was good. The paella was okay. I felt that it did not have a lot of flavor and some of the rice seemed that it wasn't cooked all the way. I then ordered a pineapple margarita which was good as well. The restaurant has a nice ambiance. I know they have brunch as well so I will come back to try some brunch items. The customer service was really good as well. read more

Me and some coworkers went to Botica for Saturday Brunch. It was from start to finish a great experience. They do validate parking; 3 hours free. We had reservations and was seated immediately after arriving. The staff was courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere was trendy casual. It has a cool laid back vibe. I love that you have the option to sit inside or out on the patio. The patio does not give you full "outside" vibes...maybe because the weather was nice it didn't feel like outside. Now let's talk about the food. I don't know what I expected BUT the food presentation and taste surpassed anything I could have conceived from walking into the restaurant. Everything was GREAT! Many times when you go to a restaurant they have hit or miss dishes but everything was so unique and tasty. The drinks were amazing as well! I definitely recommend Botica for brunch! I will have to go back this summer for dinner. read more

Parking deck is available, nice Establishment, plenty of seating and full patio... Full bar with TVs showing sports... Made reservations thru Opentable, got seated right away.... My server name was Chris and he was really good and knowledgeable, he did a good job... The drinks are really good... I had one Margarita and it was just right and strong... The menu and food was underwhelming... Shrimp tacos was bland, no flavor needed to add salsa, BBQ chicken and Salmon was blahhhh ... Chips, salsa and Queso was good! I love the salsa! If I come back here next to me it will be only for drinks... Menu is super limit and need more better traditional options... read more

Botica - Shrimp, Salmon, and BBQ Chicken tacos - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Subpar to say the least. I hate the lam, fried fish, and shrimp taco. Don't waste your time with chips and salsa try something else. The Mexican rice lacked taste. Service was okay, no complaints there. You have to register your car as soon as you get there and the hostess never mentioned it to me. After sitting down, I began to wonder how I would not get towed. I asked the hostess and she say I should have done it before I sat down. How would I have known such a thing. Had a very tasty drink though! That was possibly the best part. %20 auto gratuity, if they bothers you. I only bothers me when the service is not excellent and it was not. Solid 3 stars ! read more

Will Not Return--There are places with better food, service and without covert pricing and gratuity. I was invited here by a friend who had been wanting to try this place. I found my friend out on the patio (she went ahead of me) and after I sat down it took about 10 minutes for "Heaven" to come bring water and take drink orders. She seemed nice enough. My friend ordered an ALCOHOLIC Strawberry Margarita and wings before I got there. She explained all of the frozen drinks are premade with alcoholic, so I ordered a NON-ALCOHOLIC Prickly Pear Margarita and guacamole. The wings were "tasty" and the guacamole was standard. Nothing to write home about and definitely not worth $9 for the small cup and over salted chips. It's not even a table guacamole and had no special flavor, size or addition that made it worthwhile. I ordered a salad which was super yummy. I was a bit hesitant because when I asked Heaven about the vinaigrette she could only tell me that she didn't like vinaigrette so she couldn't answer accurately. It turned out to be 1/2 delicious things I ordered. We ordered tacos. My friend ordered her tacos chickpea and lamb on flour tortilla . I gave specific instructions to put my chickpea in a flour tortilla and my pork and lamb on corn tortilla. It somehow got mixed up. I ended up swapping the correct one with my friend. The pork taco was "ok" but the rest were trash! The lamb by itself was good but failed miserably as a taco. Midway through the meal my friend ordered another drink and I got a NON-ALCOHOLIC mango margarita. I even ordered dessert because Heaven became a lot more attentive at the end of our meal. The croissant bread pudding is the tastiest thing I had on the menu. They should've made the menu solely with that. Sadly I won't be back and here is why. My friend and I were catching up. I'm not sure if it was a manager or just another employee but we were seated on the edge of the patio and a guy came in such close proximity of the table to pick up trash that it startled me. No warning. Just boom hand on the table and leaning down. There was a creepy guy right seated beside us who positioned his chair so that he could stare periodically and eavesdrop on our conversation. Now enter Heaven with Hell. As mentioned Heaven became "really" attentive (pushing us out) at the end. So much so that my friend and I had a bet of how many times she would come over to ease us out. I won. She brought the checks and I asked for all the alcohol to be split and bring me the rest. WHY DID THIS GIRL CHARGE MY NONALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE AS ALCOHOL?! THEN, AFTER THE FACT TELL US SHE "COULDN'T CHANGE IT IN THE SYSTEM." THEN SHE CHARGED AN 18% Gratuity for a TWO-TOP. I was prepared to pay 20% or more but after seeing that mess she got what she plotted for. She didn't explain any of this prior to bringing it. She was ineffective and non communicative at best. The experience was mediocre at best. Tin Lizzy's has a similar experience, better food, and no covert pricing. read more

Normally Iove this place. The food and atmosphere. until I saw it on cinco de mayo today! There was a customer lying on the floor too much to drink. Not their (Botica) fault at all. She had thrown up in the booth and was lying on the floor. What dissatisfied me was when the firemen had finally came and got her, the employees swept up the throw up and wiped the seat. They didn't disinfect anything. No bleach nothing. Then they sat two more customers there and all did was spray some air freshener in the air. Plenty of witnesses. Me and my coworker were like noooo don't sit anyone there. We asked the employee ( who sprayed the air freshener) did they have bleach to disinfect and she stated no. So that will be my last time there. read more

My friend and I came here one evening and sat at the bar. The bartender gave us menus and asked if we knew what we wanted to drink. We didn't really have much time to review the menu yet so he went and grabbed us waters while we looked. We both decided on a mango margarita and a pineapple margarita. We took a little more time to decide what we wanted to eat. I ordered the Spanish Octopus and Barbacoa taco. My friend got the Enchiladas. You could really taste the char on the octopus...maybe too much. And the potatoes that came with the octopus were really hard. I had to put some force into cutting them. Everything else was good. It took a long time for the bartender to check on us. Our drinks were empty and our food was done, and we were still waiting on him. He never even made eye contact with us for us to grab his attention. read more

I never get tired of ordering #shrimp and grits. I enjoyed this one at Botica. The turkey gravy, sunny side up egg and creamy grits made it a well balanced and delicious meal. I wanted more!!!

I had the pineapple one. Check them out! read more

Came in with my fiancé last night for dinner. We made a reservation for 6pm and sat outside. They have some awesome TVs outside to watch sports! I started with a skinny marg and it was really good! I got one breakfast taco and one fish taco and a side of veggies. The breakfast taco is really yummy and different! It's quite spicy though. This fish taco is super good as well. And the veggies are really tasty. My fiancé got the chicken burrito and loved it! The cheese sauce that comes on top is amazing. We ended with an order of churros. So good! The dough was almost cakey and so fresh. read more

Perfecto!!! Not only amazing food, vibrant ambiance, great everything and superb service, but a fun, great dining experience unlike many traditional boring Buckhead "same old" places, with same old faces. Chef Mimmo is incredible, place is a MUST, staff is excellent, patio is great, nothing but A+! Love Botica, we had so much fun and will be back soon! Cheers! read more

Parking is in the garage, and validated at the iPad in the front of the restaurant, which requires your tag number. It's a large restaurant, with a sizable bar and ample seating. I was with a large group when I went, and we were all seated with no issues, and when the checks came at the end, it was smooth sailing and no issues with anyone's bills. A few negatives that stuck out: The server brought out drinks and placed them in front of people and we all had no idea what drink it was and who ordered it. It became a little annoying after a while because I ordered a mineral water, but kept getting cocktails placed in front of me. In terms of food, it was really, really, really mediocre for the price of the dishes. Also the serving was a LOT smaller than I expected. The overall ambience is very loud, almost like a dive bar late in the night kind of energy. People dancing, having fun, open air patio seating, and the DJ (yes there's a DJ) keeping things lively. But the food was so mediocre, and for someone who went there for dinner, that was a big turn off. I personally don't think I'd go again. But if you're into a place that has lots of drinks, a bar, a lot of energy, and don't mind the party atmosphere, give it a shot! Just don't expect anything spectacular in terms of food or portions. read more

The crispy fish taco was delicious! I had the best margarita. The bartender Sabria was so sweet and her drinks were the bomb! This was my first time here and it definitely won't be my last. read more

Went for the first time to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Although it was very crowded, I was able to get a table right away. Our server Yazmin was very pleasant and provided great service.

This is a great place for lunch/ brunch. I made a reservation, though my points from Open Table have not been awarded which should Have happened as soon as I checked it. I'll Check on that tomorrow. But the waitress was really nice. She shared that she was new but she was just lovely the entire time. The salsa abs queso were both good but the chips might need some TLC. They were really hard, not stale, it tasted like they wanted the chips to taste like this, not very good to me. I ended up switching to tortillas instead. The tacos were SUPER DOPE!!!!! The frozen prickly pear Margarita was SOOOOOOO syrup filled that I drank maybe half of it and had to stop. Overall service was good and most of the food was good but bad chips at a taco spot is rough. read more

Definitely a vibe, indoor outdoor seating. I was taken here for my birthday. Even though it was busy.. it didn't feel too overwhelming. Bottles where Popping all over the place and the bartender was nice and friendly while we waited we also had drinks on the side of the bar. They also validate your parking as well up to 3 hours, you can get lost in time here. We ordered chips & queso, chips and guacamole , the grilled oysters... delicious, tuna tar tar... delicious my favorite or all besides the margaritas was the Octopus ...OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Will return when they have the parella.. I think that's how it's spelled and when u go ask for Brian, he was our waiter and he was great. Only reason why 4 not a 5 is because you have to order a few tapas to get full. The food is soooo delicious I get upset because I want more lol.. perfect place for a date night read more

So , I've been meaning to try Botica. The place is super cute and I had a lot of friends that have recommended the spot. Overall the experience was great. I enjoyed my food, I particularly enjoyed the shrimp tacos. This is the only restaurant where the chop the shrimp which I truly appreciate. Makes eating the taco more enjoyable. The paella is okay, I still haven't found amazing paella in the ATL. BUT! I will say the drinks are mighty tasty. I had the Granita and the Frose. Both were delicious, of course paying $10 a drink is always a downside of dining in Atlanta. But! Still a pretty nice place, I hope to try out the brunch soon. read more

Still a wonderful spot! After searching all over Atlanta, for a spot to host 18 people, this place did not charge for a large party or hold me up with unnecessary catering details. The reservation was easy to confirm and everyone was happy. Our server(s) were wonderful, and this location made my birthday celebration spectacular. Keep up the good work! read more

I had the organic mussels and lamb birria taco. I had lamb birria w/out pickled onions... ooooo it was so good I should have ordered a second. The organic mussels with that champagne cream... what a beautiful combination!! I was kinda worried about the cream b/c I'm lactose intolerant but it didn't bother my stomach at all. The cream tasted so good even just dipping the toast in the cream. I will definitely be back. My waiter was very nice. Although I did have to request my table be wiped down b/c of the amount of pollen. I just feel like that should have been an automatic thing especially since this is pollen season who wants to sit down at a table covered in yellow pollen?! There was actually another lady that I asked to wipe my table down after she wiped the table beside mine. That was also before my waiter came. I will be back regardless!! read more

First time and upon recommendation. The atmosphere was very lively. I'd say a great place for happy hour. There was plenty of seating inside and out. We sat on the outside patio and had a very nice young lady for our server. She was very attentive throughout our meal. The 3 star rating is for the food. It was nicely plated, but mediocre in taste. It's OK for a bar scene, but I wouldn't put it at the top of my list for a dinner night out. read more

Botica - Tamales - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Okay so I don't think I'll be coming back to this place but that's because I'm a service type of person. So first before anything, DO NOT pay for parking. They validate inside. Not having to find parking is one of my favorite things about this place. It's convenient, easy, and there. Inside, it's usually Hispanic themed music playing and they won't seat you unless most of your party is there. I recommend reserving ahead. I've been twice and I will say the food is not bad. I can't remember what I had the first time but that burger is definitely worth it. It's huge, has a lot on it, and it's filling. Now to get into the cons. Usually I would get into the drinks first but their customer service is so trash, I can never order enough to actually get buzzed. I went twice and had the same exact server twice. He comes off as he doesn't care, maybe it's because there's a service charge already to every order, which is convenient honestly, but he does not check on you. I can easily wait a half for anything I order and that drives me insane. It wouldn't if periodically I was checked on to get drinks etc etc. I completely understand when a restaurant is busy but this guys genuinely be slacking. On the last visit, I ordered the burger and side of potatoes, which were delish af, and I managed to finish my whole meal before they brought me the sauce I asked for. My friend ordered an eggs Benedict, and then they tried to argue with her that it doesn't come with bread....when a Benedict is a sandwich. THEN they ended up charging her $5 for two slices of bread. Literally the service ruined this place for me. The food is pricey, but good, but that service is absolutely atrocious and is not worth it for me, personally. I gave it two tries and received the same result. I'm good, but you know, I might just have bad luck so y'all can try it. read more

Great Mexican food and the drinks are good too! The service was top notch! Always a great place to go with friends or date night

I saw this place on tv today and visited because it was National Fish Taco Day. We had a blast. Parking was easy. There is a deck and you walk right in and put your license plate in at the register and parking is free. Our server MiMi was very informative and professional yet friendly. The fish was as light and flavorful as promised. We also tried several dishes from the happy hour menu all were fantastic especially the head on grilled shrimp swimming in garlic butter which included large chunks of garlic. The wagu meatball was flavorful and so was the hummus plate. The place is large with big screen TVs all over and after 7 it's quite lively. I can't wait to return. read more

The food that i hot was a steak quesadilla and that was $18 itself. my quesadilla was good but its just cheese and steak, you shouldn't be able to mess that up. on the other hand my friends got enchiladas and birra tacos and that alone was just not good. the birria isn't the kind of birra you think it is and their tortillas are nasty. i liked the service and the drinks were good. i wouldn't go there for just the food. read more

The food awesome and the service was outstanding! The noise level was a bit much, making conversations on our table hard, but the food, drinks, and service made up for it. Definitely worth another visit the next time we are in Atlanta! read more

I had been meaning to get here for so long, and finally made it! The location validate your parking, which is great. I came in on a Saturday and it was pretty packed, but the service was still good. we ended up getting the habanero chicken wings the tuna Crudo, and the papas Fritas. Everything was really good. I enjoyed it. we also got several different drinks and they were all crafted really well. Our waiter was a star. She was super sweet, super down to earth, shared her recommendations and help me pick out different cocktails. The only thing that I didn't like is that they have paella only on one certain day. So I have to go back to try. They also have happy hour on weekdays! read more
