Always, always, always Delicious!!! Whenever we're craving tacos, we immediately go there.

This is a casual taco place. I've been here several times not exactly to this location but the restaurant. I went late at night this time so the food was t as fresh as usual but typically it's good.. I usually get tacos. The birria tacos regular and seafood are good. I believe you can place orders over the phone or at the counter for here or to go. Parking can be hard if they're busy read more

The birria tacos were super juicy and crispy, although I found them to be a little bit too salty. The employees were also super nice and let me taste test the mango drink before I ordered them. The drink was super sweet and paired well with the tacos. read more

I order the QuesaBirria whenever I come here and it's was absolutely amazing. I've never experienced a huge crowd and the wait time is not long. The food is cooked to order, so it's usually hot and fresh. The atmosphere of the restaurant is normally calm. I can enjoy one of my favorite comfort meals inside. read more

Me and my friend came here and got Birria Ramen. Service was very quick, we got our food within a few minutes, and overall just seemed very authentic. The food was so good, in fact, that we decided to get takeout and eat more later. read more

The food here is amazing!! It's delicious, authentic, and the price is great. This was my first time trying birria tacos and they were so flavorful!! I had the shrimp and steak fajitas - the steak was super tender and the shrimp were delicious with a little spicy kick to them. I would definitely eat here again! read more

Highly recommend this spot! Food is fresh and authentic as they can be. Staff/employees mostly speak Spanish so be patient and articulate your order well to avoid mistakes in your order and to support them. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time given the crowd. There are lots of parking spots in the plaza where this joint is located as well as other food options. Prices are reasonable for the service, ambiance, quality, and portions. This is a 10/10 must try in the area. I also recommend to STOP eating at Tex-Mex Gentrified Mexican Food restaurants like Moe's, Chipotle, or El Pollo Loco. read more

I love this place! my favorite place for birria tacos!! yummy food very authentic hispanic food! it was definitely a hole in the wall but it has become more popular and i feel like the quality has stayed the same read more

The food was really good! I ordered the taquito plate and my husband ordered three carne asada tacos. The taquito plate had four really big chicken taquitos, rice, refried beans, sour cream, and guacamole salad. There was a salsa bar with several salsas ranging in degrees of heat. They also had pickled onions, peppers, and carrots plus radishes. My husband said the carne asada tacos were some of the best he's ever had in Atlanta. The taquitos had lots of tender (not dry) chicken inside and paired well with the sour cream and guacamole. The rice was the best Mexican rice I have ever had. It had onions and tomatoes in it and I think chicken bouillon as well which is the classic way of making Mexican rice. The beans were typical refried beans. We ordered mango agua frescas and they didn't disappoint. We will definitely be back! read more

Came here with some friends and decided to try it out! The place looked pretty normal, a little outdated which meant that it will be good. The lady took our order and we waited about 10 mins to receive our food. (It was half full) Once I dug in the tacos were amazing, they get soggy for a while and are very greasy (car oil tacos lol!) They were great and the passion fruit water was bomb. Will be back! But next time I'll bring the TUMS! read more

~ First review of 2024 ~ El Indio is my favorite Mexican food chain in the Atlanta area even into 2024. Consistently delicious food, accuracy, and great value/portions. I've ordered from this location several times and only had one bad experience where the consommé with the birria tacos was just oily and no flavor. That same day the pork in the pozole was also a little undercooked and on the tough side. Every other time has been a great meal though, so this does not affect my rating. I'm sure they just had a busy day. If you have not tried birria or birriaquesa tacos yet, you're missing out! I highly recommend any of the El Indio locations. They are all great. I cannot really speak to the ambiance for this location, as I just get take out or delivery most times. However you plan to order, I'm sure there is something on the menu for you to enjoy. read more

Tripe taco 5/5 SO good, especially after all the toppings I added from the salsa bar. Birria quesadilla 3.5/5 it had too much meat, I know it's a weird complaint, and not enough seasoning. The consume that came with it was good and light. Workers there were very friendly. read more

I got a burrito el plato with lengua and it was delicious. The meat was tender, the flavors were on point, the portion size was huge, and I was very satisfied with my meal. I called a pretty big order ahead of time, and they were able to accommodate my order needs over the phone. They took my card over the phone, which is understandable for such a large order. But to my pleasant surprise, the order was ready in about the 10 minutes it took for me to drive there, and everything was accurate. My kids enjoyed the quesadillas, too - the kids meals are a good deal! read more

So last night was my first time here an i give this place a 6/10 . I finally got a chance to try the birria tacos aka the car oil tacos lol it's about two other names people call it but it was definitely good. I had the birra quesadilla it was with beef that kinda looked like stew beef meat . It was big and good , it was like a big quesadilla, cut into 3 . I was also able to try a birria taco I only got one. It had the stew beef kinda meat in it as well . Everything was packed up into different containers with different kinds of sauces to try. I went around 10 o'clock at night and it was worth it a little crowded for it to be that late but people were there and it was going fast . You have the option to sit inside or to take out , I believe this is a Mexican restaurant. read more

I was looking for somewhere with birria tacos and found El Indio. Since then, I feel like I crave them at least every other week. This place has the best birria tacos I've ever had (not that I've had much experience with them), but I like that their menu gives you so many options as well. You could get the birria plate or birria quesadilla instead if you're not feeling tacos. I generally like to order one plate of the tacos and one of the quesadilla and split half of each with my husband. Both are so good that I can't ever decide which one I want, so we get both. The cup that they give you is so big that you could make one order and just order extra tacos and still have enough to dip with all your tacos. That's generally what we do. They also have a cart on the side that you can grab your own sauces and extra toppings. It's nice because you can grab as much as you want. Service is generally pretty fast, and they keep the place pretty clean considering this is a pretty messy meal. Just writing this review already makes me want to go back again. El Indio is definitely a must try! read more

The customer service here is a serious problem. The workers demanded my credit card information on the phone and when I didn't understand, they were mocking me on the end of the phone. I come here regularly, but the staff is always a major issue. They are rude and not attentive. Management needs to train their employees better to accommodate their paying customers. Food is really REALLY really good though. read more

Top notch Mexican cuisine. You see families there dining in with their kids. Let's you know that they are legit. I wish they had nachos on the menu but everything is delicious and authentic. Can't miss read more

We ordered takeout here just to try their birria tacos and quesadilla. We went in and placed our order, but the line was almost out the door on a weeknight. Moreover, there is no social distancing or enforcing of masks, even while you wait in line to order. I was a little uncomfortable with the crowd, so I waited outside for my order. Since it was busy, there were a lot of issues with picking up. Several people who ordered after me received their food first, so the wait was over 30 minutes. Nonetheless, our food was still warm when we got home. They give you a selection of sauces to choose from -- I really enjoyed their spicy salsa and tangy vinaigrette. For three birria tacos, the price (~$12) wasn't absurd, but I also wasn't super impressed. Thankfully, the tacos were generously stuffed too. Next time, I would probably opt for dine-in to get them fresh! read more

This is the second time I've tried this place. Both times I've ordered delivery. Pro: Food arrives quickly, and still hot! Con: the inside shell was raw both times, which presents a texture issue for me. Crispy outer shell, plus a soft inner shell, dipped in the consomme, I just couldn't get past it. I've read in a another review on here the same thing, and that it's better to dine in. The first time i had just the tacos, same issue. This time I tried the Ramen with the tacos. Ramen wasn't bad, thin noodles, with a good portion of the beef! It may be just me, but the flavor was lacking a bit compared to other birria I've had, BUT the limes really helped it out! Ask for extra lime and it will be good. Overall, portions and presentation are good for the price. read more

I have always been a fan of El Indio, but our recent visit gets it all the stars! I was late to the party on birria tacos, but when all the pics and articles about them started show up on Insta, I knew I was going to have to get in on the trend. One article I encountered recommended five restaurants in the Metro Atlanta area, and El Indio was on the list. That happens to be near our neighborhood, so one Friday night we decided to give them a shot. My husband and I each ordered the birria taco dinner, which came with three tacos and consome. We ordered through the Yelp Grubhub option with no problems whatsoever. When we went to pick up our order, we realized that this place is seriously hopping on a Friday night. The parking lot was PACKED. Since we were a little early, we decided to drive around a bit to avoid the fray until it was time for our pickup. As we approached our pick-up time, we lucked out and found a spot on the side of the restaurant which allowed us to avoid the most congested area. Pick-up was quick and easy, and the order was exactly right. Now, the tacos. They were excellent. The flavor was rich, deep, and meaty. This was no health food, make no mistake. But the indulgence was totally worth it. I get the birria taco hype! We ordered take-out because we have not been dining in yet, but I think the tacos would even be better fresh. We can't wait to come again when we can enjoy them fresh and inside the restaurant. We will definitely be back! If you haven't tried these yet, give them a shot! You won't regret it! read more

it's in a plaza so you might miss it but I hope you don't. have your Spanish app ready to go or speak it fluently cause there was one person that spoke English. I've been to their sister restaurant so it's not totally new - but just like the other location, everyone was very friendly and helpful. smiles on the front line as well as in the back of the house. Someone was wiping tables and trays, keeping the dining room tidy. read more

I came here for the birria tacos and they were delicious!! It's worth the hype so go try them out !! I came during lunch time and they were super busy!! This is a great sign. It made a little nervous there were a bunch of people inside but I wore my mask and just stayed to myself until got my food. I ordered the birria tacos and this spot is for authentic tacos if that's what you are after. They do have an array of other dishes with the menu up top and you just order at the counter. They have a salsa bar but they also have little pre made sauces for you to take with you so I didn't go to that area. Waiting for the food was a fine and my tacos stayed nice and crisp with the consomé was a great compliment. It didn't seem oily and it was flavorful. I'd like to come back to try more dishes that they serve. read more

I am a regular at El Indio and I have never been let down. The carne asada is amazing and always makes my Mexican heart happy. Today my boyfriend and I went and grabbed some tacos and sopes. The wait is short and this location expanded the dining area so being crowded is never a dilemma. You receive a little beeping device when your food is ready so there's not an issue with waiting right in front of the registers anymore. TIP: get the mango juice!! read more

Pulled up on a Tuesday at 8pm and it was packed. Started raining and since it was crowded I ordered to-go. You get a little buzzer and can take it to the car. Took about 30 minutes but my birria quesatacos were fresh and muy delicioso! The location is in a busy Latin strip plaza. Nothing fancy but it's clean. Give them a try...you won't be sorry! read more

El Indio has always been a staple for authentic Mexican food!! In the recent years they've served Birria Queso tacos and they are to diieee for Always ask what the meat is birria is just stewed meat. Typically It's goat or beef and sometimes chicken. It's a taco and quesadilla in one and you dip it in this yummy soup like sauce that's consume! I'm a noodle girl all day so I order with Maruchen consume'. The meal with noodles comes with 2 standard comes with 3.

LET ME TELLLLLL YOUUUU!! I've been looking for some good birria tacos in Atlanta and have been struggling but when I stumbled upon El Indio I was excited! I saw photos and video online and knew from the way the cheese was ooooozing it was going to hit! The birria combo comes with 3 tacos and dipping sauce for about $11. The line can be long but they move quickly! The menu is overwhelming but just ignore it and go for birria. They call out numbers in Spanish so make sure you check out Rosetta Stone upon arrival! You're gonna need it if you plan to get your food! It's an authentic spot! They have birria tacos (corn tortilla) and birria quesadillas (flour tortilla). read more

I wanted birria tacos, and this place was the closest to my new house. Be aware that it can get pretty loud, and the cashier may or may not know English. There is a card minimum so bring cash if you're not ordering much here. But I doubt you couldn't order anything below $10 unless it's a drink. Get the birria tacos! You won't be dissatisfied. read more

I see why this place as a line out the door. Best birria tacos in Tucker. They are addictive. When we walked in the entire menu was in Spanish and the workers spoke little English so we knew the food was going poppin' and authentic. Worth the long lines! This review is going to encourage more to people and we are going to hate the wait but we can't keep this place to ourselves. read more

Not that impressive on my first visit. Could have been the help that assisted me ringing out my order. On the first attempt I requested Birria with steak and chicken tacos. In my ignorance, traditionally birria is consistent used with stew beef; hence the wet consome that accompanies the tacos for dipping. In my defense however, I have been places where you can purchase steak and chicken birria consome. I guess it depends on who's cooking and if they follow tradition vs creative options. When I learned how it works it appeared to be a big deal to back out the order and start over paying a difference. So I just kept what I got. What I learned was it is good to venture out and try new things. I also learned that I may have to stick to what I know and ask questions before finalizing orders. Getting people who are not comfortable in their skin and pass their timidness is an art. I just kept it simple What I got was sufficient. It was not what I wanted but I am grateful read more
