Better than Chipotle and more reasonably priced. I like that refried beans is an option. Everyone is friendly and fast at getting the order ready to go. I work locally and order once a week. No real comment on ambiance or anything as I always take out. read more

Their tacos are actually filling. Lots of meat and comes with rice and beans. It's basically like a chipotle so you build your own tacos or can order any premade ones that's on the menu. If you want a quick filling lunch. Definitely come here. read more

Chronic Tacos - Asada and pastor taco with rice and beans. - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

After leaving Cooper's Hawk Winery, we were still hungry. We looked up some places and I remembered how good Chronic Tacos were lol. It was right down the street, so it was easy to get there. Other establishments were attached, but it was easy parking. Only one couple was in there. We were greeted and informed what was fulfilling and popular on the menu. I chose to get the bowl and my friend chose the Quesadilla. It was spacious inside with high top tables and low seating ones as well. They both were satisfying. Its a little ways from me, but I do plan to visit soon. read more

Chronic Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Moved from Southern California years ago, and hadn't had chronic in forever. It was a staple when we were living out west, so when my wife and I found one in Georgia, we went out of our way to try it. It is just as good as we remember. The food is so, so fresh. Ingredients are fantastic, and you just can't beat the flavor of good chronic taco. If you haven't given them a try, they are totally worth it. The best part about the menu is the handheld burrito. Whenever I'm hungry, but don't feel like eating a full meal.... That mini burrito comes in clutch. The only offering if its kind, from what I've seen. We will be going out of our way to visit this location often! Lastly, customer service was phenomenal. The gentleman helping us was friendly, very knowledgeable about the franchise, spoke very highly of the owners of this location... it was a 10/10 experience! read more

I grabbed these carne asada fries and they hit the spot! The meat was flavorful and well-seasoned, and the diced onions and tomatoes added a nice freshness. The melted cheese tied everything together perfectly. That said, next time I'm definitely customizing it with some queso, jalapeños, and guac to kick it up a notch--would've added some creamy heat and texture to take it over the top. Solid as-is, but with those extras, it would've been fire. read more

Chronic Tacos - Chronic fries - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Chronically: * Cheap: It's bad enough they charge ya for the chips and salsa, but then apparently you can only have ONE dinky little cup of salsa? Traditionally, taquerias and taco trucks offer a variety of sauces and let you select what and how much you need. * Unpleasant: The guy at the counter made no effort at all to be welcoming, even on a very quiet Sunday afternoon and after I took a few minutes to study the digital menu since this was my first time at a Chronic Tacos. As others have mentioned, the ordering process and conditions are surprisingly complicated. * Filthy: The men's room was what you expect to see in dive bars, filling stations, etc. So why three stars and not less? To be fair, the food wasn't bad (tip: the fish tacos are made fresh and to order, as where the beef, pork, etc. are sadly scooped out of sad cafeteria-style pans). Even the chips and salsa, despite the fee and limited quantity of sauce, were OK. Still, one should expect a lot more from a chain that hypes its authentic "roots" in Orange County, CA (lol!). read more

I wanted to like this place but I just can't. Their ordering process seems straight forward but it's also got some complicated sub rules. And the place is kind of noisy to the point where conversation was challenging. The final push for me was that their food is so salty I can't barely take it. I got the tacos Al pastor, black beans, and Spanish rice. The Al pastor was dry and they put a bizarre sauce on it. The beans were super salty and mixing in the rice didn't help. I don't think I'll be back. Maybe it's just me. I hate being "The Gripe" but tonight I'm just not feeling the vibe! read more

In Texas there is a chain of taco places called Torchy's... I truly miss the food from them since we moved here! However we recently tried Chronic tacos and while not a substitute for Torchy's they are a good taco place in their own right. The inside was clean... lots of room and well lit. The people behind the counter are nice and speedy. My family all ordered their version of their tacos... while I had the monster, Surf and Turf Burrito! It is about 5lbs of food and 10lbs of flavor! Man it was loaded with rice beans steak pico shrimp and just plain old goodness! Well worth checking out... it even had a bit of a bite... some heat in the seat... a little fire for hire... It was spicy good! If you have not tried out Chronic I suggest that you do! read more

Ordered a burrito online with Al Pastor as the protein. When I got home, I discovered the meat was missing. Given the service and what I paid, I'll be going to Chipotle next time and get exactly what I paid for. read more

I was so excited to try this place after seeing some good photos and videos of their food. I was highly disappointed in the food though. They are WAY overpriced and do not give a lot of food. Plus it's definitely missing flavor! My partner and I agreed, if we want Mexican, we will just go to an actual Mexican restaurant! At least then we can get flavor and a margarita to go with this high prices! read more

Chronic Tacos - Veggie Taco and queso - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Typically I won't eat Mexican food outside of Texas, New Mexico Arizona or Southern California, but I did - and wish I wouldn't of. Food quality very poor. I had the Al Pastor and it was the absolutely worst I've ever had - couldn't even finish my dinner. Also had Churros for desert - another fail. read more

I'm new to GA, so thought I'd try Chronic Tacos out. (It reminds me of Chipotle.). I ordered the asada tacos with a side of chips, queso, and guacamole. The beef did not have flavor, other than grease. The queso and guacamole were very salty, but edible. The queso was the consistency of old Elmer's glue. I enjoyed the beans and rice. I threw everything else away. read more

Really hard to hear the person taking orders behind the plastic protecting sheet orders because Not only was he having to wear a mask of course, additionally with the music so loud and The high ceilings makes everyone's conversations so loud! Once ordered I asked the cashier to repeat it just to make sure. The person taking the order was nice enough to come to my table afterwards and apologize that it was difficult to hear him. I ordered the mahi-mahi bowl which you got four pieces not sure it was worth what it cost but after reading the reviews I wanted to try it. I'm not sure I would order it again! read more

I love this place. The quality is much better than a Chipotle or Moe's and the prices are competitive. You also can't beat their Mahi tacos. The fish is so incredibly fresh and both the grilled and battered versions are phenomenal and worth the $2 up charge IMO. I really can't emphasize the freshness enough, it truly stands out. Service is not overtly friendly but it's worth it. Perfect for a quick bite. read more

Never heard from anyone in management, just wanted to update the lack of customer service

I haven't been to dine here in sometime but at one point it was my favorite place to eat lunch at. Today the service was just okay. What I didn't too much care for it the employees scratching his face and slinging his hair back with his hands, not the most pleasant nor sanitary sight to see. The food this evening was not its best. read more

Man, was that disappointing. I'm guessing I ordered wrong. I got the nachos and paid the $2 extra to eliminate the standard meats to get shrimp. All it got me was five small shrimp and a serving of dried out nachos. I'm guessing the burritos are the way to go but I certainly don't want to risk another poor meal. I'm being generous with two stars. read more

Chronic Tacos - Shrimp Nachos. Steer Clear. $10.50 plus tax for a small portion with only five small shrimp. - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

Spacious restaurant with a laid back type ambiance. I got a mahi mahi burrito with chips and salsa and I gotta say, it was pretty good and very filling. The way this place operates it's like a chipotle-style restaurant where you go and tell them what you want in your burrito while they make it in front of you so because of this the service is quick. Overall a good place with some pretty tasty food, friendly service, and plenty of parking space. I'll definitely be coming by again! read more

was given recommendation to this spot for tacos and they did not disappoint! So yum !

My son loves this place. Located across from Chuck E Cheese's. Portions are good, price is reasonable, and never really had a problem with any staff. Plenty of seating inside. Outdoor seating available as well. Plenty of parking. read more

Great quesadilla! Large enough for two people. The burrito was wonderful. The rice and beans not pictured were dried out and hard....overcooked. But everything else was good. Good service and tables were clean read more

Place is so gooood! Still sad they shut down their Chamblee location but I'll drive the 30 minutes for these tacos!!

The food was good (not spectacular) and the service was very good. You just need to remember that this is a fast food tex-mex chain restaurant. I had a mahi mahi burrito and a margarita, and both were on par. I do like that they have both indoor and outdoor seating. I will return. read more

I've given this location 5-6 opportunities to wow me over multiple years. I continually leave disappointed. When you walk in, it's silent. No music. No one greets you. The employees seem miserable to be there. The food is mediocre at best. You have to pay for chips separately, and the salsa is awful. Surcheros, 5-10 minutes down the road, is 100x better. read more

Bringing a little Cali cool to North Georgia. Tacos are delicious and reasonably priced. They've got vegetarian options if you roll that way. And, they have beer on tap. I've been twice, once with the fam. Six of us ate for ~$40. (Full disclosure, we all drank water). Everyone reported live by what they ordered. I've had the Baja Fish, the veggie, the marinated pork, and the not-to-be-missed potato. I'd have that thing for dessert. It features a mashed potato filling with cheese and pretty sure onions in a corn tortilla, which is then deep fried with sour cream added. Dang that thing is good. It's like a savory Cali cannoli or something, if there could be such a thing. I'm getting a craving just writing about it. Chronic does have specials during the week. I'm adding those to the agenda :) read more

Chronic Tacos - the front of the restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

I live in California so I'm spoiled with the best Mexican food and this place was passable but not really good. It works for a chain in Georgia but I even think Chipotle is probably fresher/better across the board. read more

Walked in, looked around and walked out. I was looking for real Mexican food, and this is a Moe's kind of place.

To be fair, I have mixed emotions about this review, but I decided that sticking with four stars was the most honest and true to my heart that I could be. What worked well: the food! While the price is a little more than I'd like to pay for a burrito or a burrito bowl, these were overflowing! I ordered a burrito and bowl in carne asada, and one burrito with Beyond Meat (not mine, I can't even fake that). The burritos were full to bursting and the bowl was filled up to the top as well. It was all quite flavorful, and I kept the bowl for the next day, and it even held up well as left over meal. I ordered through the app and everything came out just as expected, and that Baja Sauce is bomb. I ordered some extra on the side so I could eat it with other things, too. What needs work: I get it, things are weird in a pandemic. The app took forever to send through my order, so even once I got there it still took another 15 minutes to get my food (would've been the same had I just ordered it there). The employees were wearing masks, some more properly than others, but they still had masks on. People were doing okay with spacing out, but I still waited outside to get my food to go. The staff was friendly for the most part, but so slow (especially given how few orders there were), but I was happy in the long run. Give it a try. It certainly beats out some of the local chains for the same cost, and if you're a Beyond Meat fan, they've got what you need! read more

In search for another new lunch place and stumbled upon Chronic Tacos. First thoughts weed and tacos can't lose lol! Joking but we have it it try walked in the place was clean and the decor was pretty cool they have this awesome mural that stretches along the entire wall. The ordering system is "chipotle style" pick a bowl, taco, burrito choose your meat and load up on the toppings. I ordered a chicken burrito and my wife ordered two tacos one mahi mahi and one chicken with tots n queso. Yeah I said tots n queso oh and a side of guac. Grabbed two Mexican cokes and sat down to eat and the food was good very good not bad at all I must say. The mahi mahi taco my wife had was super good she ordered it Baja style. I should have ordered that I will next time though. I'm a little salty her food was better then mine lol. The chicken burritos and tacos were seasoned very good nice taste guac was fresh I can complain. oh and the tots n queso which I never had in my life was on point it's just something about dipping potatoes in cheese that makes you love life. The owner James introduced himself and thanked us for coming he seems like a pretty cool guy who cares about his establishments reputation. We forgot to get the queso when we ordered our food and when I went back to ask for it turns out they didn't charge us and he gave it to us anyway! You the man James! Don't bug him asking for free queso either not gonna happen lol! Side note they take Apple Pay and have TV's and huge patio outside with seating oh and they serve beer! Give them a try! read more

I love tacos, and this place looked interesting on the Yelp photos and has a cool name, so I had to try it. My friend drove down to meet me. The first thing she noted was the price of the tacos. She thought they were high. She's pretty money conscious, though. I thought the prices seemed pretty mainstream to me. You pick your base (salad, quesadilla, torta, bowl, burrito, taco) and then pick your protein, which can be anything from fish to veggie to steak to pork to chicken, and then you can pick different ways to have it made, street style was one way versus baja I believe. I wanted some chipotle sauce to go with my taco. They had a chipotle mayo, but I was disappointed that it was more mayo, less chipotle flavor. They did have a nice variety of sauces to add on, which I did to give it more taste. I chose the baja veggie taco, which comes with a healthy serving of guacamole. And then I got the fish taco, which was a lot less filling. I was disappointed in the tacos. I was expecting better, and they were just okay in my opinion. I think had the mayo had more of a chipotle flavor that would have helped. Secondly, I felt the fish taco had very little fish, and just a whole bunch of cabbage. Both were bland, but the condiments helped. For being a bit out of my way, and having the experience I had, I wouldn't really be back anytime soon. I think I'll keep searching for a better taco elsewhere. read more

I was in the area so I decided to consult Yelp for a restaurant that was offering take out. Actually, Chronic Tacos had their seating area open but I was alone this time so I opted for take out. Restaurant looked very clean and inviting, though. I explained to the young lady behind the counter that this was my first time so she was patient as I surveyed the menu. I decided to opt for the 2 taco plate that comes with rice and beans. A review mentioned the tacos do not come with sides... maybe she was only ordering separate tacos? The 2 taco plate does have sides. It also does come with chips and salsa but I chose not to have any. I decided to try the veggie taco and the chicken taco (if you order a shrimp or fish taco it is $2 extra, fyi). It is set up like a Chipotle where you are able to pick what you want on your taco but, in my opinion, it is better. First, you can pick between flour or corn tortillas. I wish they had the crunchy corn tortillas as an option but they did not. Next they load up the tortilla with your main ingredient and then you begin picking your extras. One positive... guacamole is included in the price. I also loved that they offer shredded cabbage. I love cabbage on my tacos. At any rate, I chose the same for both tacos... pico, lettuce, shredded cabbage, cilantro, salsa verde and fresh jalopenos. You have a choice of beans (black, refried or pinto... I think)... I chose black beans and a choice of white rice or spanish rice... I chose spanish. She assembled it all in a plate for take out and placed in a bag while I was paying. The only tiny negative I have is that she tried to put the bag upright and the container was too large for it causing my beans to start seeping into the other parts of my container. Not a huge deal. I noticed it and turned the bag sideways to carry out but just a tip that they should slide the container in side ways and present it to customers that way. When I returned home, I dug into my meal. Incidentally, the tacos were wrapped well and labeled with stickers which was impressive. The tacos were amazing. I was a bit disappointed with the amount of veggies in my taco (they do not offer mushrooms and I was tempted to ask for 2 helpings) but in the end, with the other items I chose, it was not a bad size... still would love to see more veggies because veggies are pretty cheap. The taco was very flavorful. My second taco was the chicken one and I was pleasantly surprised that the chicken had such flavor to it. I am not a big meat eater but this chicken tasted really good and was moist. Both tacos were very tasty. I then had the rice and beans which I also really liked. Spanish rice is definitely better than white, in my opinion. I would really like to see them offer brown rice and mushrooms (because those are items I really enjoy eating with tacos). Overall, I would return to this restaurant. Oh, they offer alcoholic drinks and if I had been with someone else, I feel like I would have tried one of those, as well. They have an extensive menu with tacos, burritos, quesadillas, bowlritos (burritos with no tortillas)... maybe I will try that next time... and more. I was pretty happy. Just a few more additions and it would be near perfect for me. I thought the prices were reasonable. read more

Disappointed. I've experienced the original spots in California hoping for the same but sadly, came away dissatisfied. The food lacked flavor, was one note.

Checked this place out on a saturday afternoon. There is plenty of seating and its a family or large group friendly. Similar to chipotles layout, they offer a build your own concept with fries, tacos, burritos. It is a little pricier but they offer a lot more meat options and toppings. It also tasted cleaner and fresher than other taco places that offer a similar menu. I tried their california burrito which comes with fries inside. The manager was nice and helped me build it with carne asada amongst other great things. It was $10 but also the biggest burrito ive had. Saved half of it for dinner. Guac is extra $1.50 but so good. They had some awesome sauces that gave mine a great kick! Loaded fries or tater tots was also $10 and build your own. If i lived nearby, id definitely come back to try the rest of the menu. Tacos looked good too! Service was fast and friendly. read more

Chronic Tacos - Carne asada California burrito and carnitas tater tots with guac. Both $11.50 - Mexican Near Me - Alpharetta, Georgia

This is my first time to Chronic Tacos. My first piece of advice: DOWNLOAD THE APP!! You immediately get "50 points" towards their rewards program, which you could use towards a free taco (25pts) free churro (50 pts) or you can save it, rack up points and get a free meal (definitely the route I'm heading) When you first walk in you choose the type of meal you want (burrito, burr-rito bowl, tostada bowl, taco) etc then you choose your type of protein (carne asada, shrimp, chicken) the type of rice (spanish, cilantro lime) and your usual toppings (sour cream, cheese (they have an awesome blend I recommend it) pico de gallo, guac. They write everything down on a sheet of paper and hand it off to the kitchen to cook your proteins which is the last thing they add to your meal so it's fresh and hot. The staff is nice and answered any questions I had despite it being a Friday at prime time lunch hour. I didn't feel rushed. I have attached a picture of my bur-rito bowl and it was as good as it looks. My friend got a burrito and man that sucker was HUGE!! Definitely trying that the next time I go! Pricing is reasonable. If you've eaten and paid for Chipotle or Willy's this is in the same price range. They have in & outdoor seating great atmosphere. I'll definitely be back! read more
