The customer service & the delicious food! The amount of food that you get is plentiful and absolutely delicious!

I came back here exclusively for the guacamole! FANTASTIC! I visited the original (?) location a month or so ago and couldn't stop thinking about the chips and guacamole. When I went back and was told they were temporarily closed as they relocated I was SAD. Seeing the new location open and poppin today made me smile. I'm not sure the chips were as fresh and I was disappointed to not see the little warmer device with chips on display as they did at the other location but still the guac was worth it. I'll definitely be back ! read more

Sooo happy they are in the West End!! REAL TACOS. Plenty to choose from, and plenty of seating even on the patio where you can bring your dog and take a walk on the beltline. Perfect location. I had the shrimp taco and shredded beef, the beef was a little spicy, but very good flavor. Excellent service, the Food came out quickly and fresh. I'd love that. They serve you. You don't have to remember to go back up and get your food., The patio atmosphere is lively and and being on the beltline. It's always much to see.. read more

Wonderful choice for drinks and food on a sunny day - the patio and vibe is excellent. Got the margarita and chicken burrito, both delicious - no notes! My one issue - the wait! The line for food took us 45 minutes... thankfully, they have a separate line for drinks, so you can grab one while you wait. read more

I wish I still had the tacos from earlier today. They were amazing. Which is why I ordered a second time for two shrimp tacos. Instead of one. You can imagine how disappointed I was to see the shrimp was a lot smaller dried out and all around presentation was not the same as my lunch order. This is very disappointing. read more

El Tesoro - Shrimp tacos - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

We went to El Tesoro for the first time on Cinco De Mayo. We had to stand in a line which didn't look long but moved at a glacial pace (about 40 minutes) to order our food. There was only one person taking orders. Additionally the bar outside moved at a glacial pace. When the food arrived everything was delicious. There are multiple spaces and the outdoor space was nice. I would definitely go back because of the food taste/quality but pack your patience if it's during peak hours. read more

$7 for this much cheese dip should be a crime. The tacos were tasty at least and I appreciated the generous portion of lime and avocado. EDIT: The owner Alan responded to my concerns and sent me a refund, plus interest! What a guy. More restaurant owners around ATL should be like him, that is really putting the customer first and I appreciate it. Now I will have to make it my beeswax to check out the original El Tesoro location. Thanks again Alan! read more

Good food located inside Wild Heaven Brewing! My go to is the veggie nachos. It's a little pricey but the portions are usually big. You have to pay for parking now but you can get 2 hours free or snag a coupon code from Wild Heaven Brewing for free parking all day! read more

One of the best dining experiences I've had. Everything tasted amazing. Clean place, affordable prices, and excellent customer service.

Did not like the food, I'm sorry. Service and location were good but I had to send my food back because I just was not sure of the taste

Delicious tacos!! The food here was great, the menu has a lot of options and there's a nice drinks selection as well. I got asada tacos which were so good, the tostada was only okay. Parking was kind of a nightmare but there's a small gravel lot across the street, I'd recommend going earlier for dinner there's always a long line but it goes pretty fast! It's only outdoor seating but the lights and vibes are definitely a vibe for a fun get together. Good food, just be prepared to stand in line. 4/5 food 5/5 service 5/5 vibes read more

This is my go to spot at Lee + White. If you are looking for a good burrito, this is the place to go. One of the best burritos in the city. While they are good most of the times, I have had a few misses. I would say 90% of the time they are right on the money as far as quality and flavor are concerned. The people are great. Always attentive. read more

I really love the atmosphere and the service that I received at this place and walking in the cashier was super friendly and helpful, and every employee that passed by me, spoke to me. It was even at one point that I think the owner was there and I was standing there and he was like hey are you OK? Have you been out so very outgoing and friendly staff so let's talk about the food so I've been on a very specific mission to find the best Carne Asada in Georgia because I'm a southern California girl and more important I'm a San Diego girl. If you know anything about San Diego, we will argue with anybody professing that we have the best Mexican food in the world and although the Mexican food that I've eaten in Atlanta has some really good flavor the burrito that I have on this place out of town, the meat was seasoned perfect too perfection. I made modifications to their burrito to make it more like what I like from home so I removed the rice and beans and guacamole and pico de gallo and I think that impacted their rendition of the burrito. I will say that they use a much better grade of meat than what issues in San Diego. I believe they use flank steak and that is more expensive. However, I was disappointed by the amount of meat in the burrito and I think they overcompensate it with a guacamole and so that impacted the score I would've given them a five out of five, but I understand that if you're used to filling a burrito with rice and beans and somebody's just wanting meat, you're not gonna just fill it up with with meat will I ever eat here again maybe but if I do, I will order the food as they have it listed and not try to make modifications and I will go in there understanding that it is on the higher end of prices for Mexican food than I'm used to. I'm not used to paying $19 for a burrito and $22 after tip not saying I won't. I'm just not used to it, especially when I thought that the amount of meat was really low there salsa although I thought it was strange it was in a packet was 10 out of 10. I hope this helps. I hope everybody reads this and says don't make modifications to their food order as it is and that would probably be the best way to go about it. read more

Unremarkable food, and I just got an email from Capital One asking if I tipped 61%! I didn't, but I guess they automatically add a tip (of 30%?), and then I tipped 31%, being way too generous! One of my two table mates really knows his Mexican food, and he was actually mad about the quality of the food. read more

Nothing bad, just no standouts. Family atmosphere in being kid friendly in the new White/Lee area in West End. Plenty of indoor seating. Was having trivia on Tuesday and has events on each night. Food was ok in what seemed to be items made in the morning and kept on a steam table but in the kitchen. Drinks were premade with the frozen margaritas. Order in line and food is brought to your table. read more

I ordered family nachos and a drink, and they gave me a small cup that was barely half full You really can't make this up. I could've bought a 99-cent canned soda and gotten more to drink than what I paid $4 for here. Please go out of business if filling a small cup is hurting you that bad read more

After doing a bike ride, I stopped here at El Tesoro, which is located inside of the Lee+White food hall in the West End. The portion size and cost is definitely a selling point here as it's filling and fairly affordable. Additionally, the food was made fresh and took about 10 minutes to come out, if that. Taste wise, being from Texas and being a huge fan of Mexican food, the burrito was just okay to me which prompted an average rating. read more

The food was spot on my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The service was what you would want it to be attentive, prompt, and willing to offer suggestions. Had the bulldog margarita thing was a little expensive and not very spicy however, the Mexican mule was great. We definitely go back again and recommend it if someone wanted Mexican in that area. read more

Best neighborhood spot for delicious food, drinks, and apps! Staff is always friendly and food comes out quick. Love this place!!

Go on Thursdays for delicious birria tacos. It's a bit salty, but these are still top tier tacos. The meat is very rich, and I love how they crisp the shell. Andddd where else can you get a $9 margarita? Other honorable mention - steak Mulita. Just go, thank me later. Free parking & other breweries to visit. Picnic style sitting inside & out. Also has couches & tvs inside. Friendly service. read more

El Tesoro - Birria tacos are top notch! Thursdays only - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Food was mediocre and overpriced. The charro beans and rice advertised 16 oz. I ended up with less and it was mostly rice. The queso was good and guacamole. My group will never return. Parking is registered and you have to use an app. There were no fountain drinks. This is a takeout place and just go to Chipotle. I spent $14 for charro rice and beans plus a chicken tostada. It was overpriced because it's on the Beltline. My friend got 3 churros for $7.95 plus tax. read more

This place has a very nice vibe, especially for a spring-summer evening. While the restaurant is inside a building, most people prefer to sit outside on picnic benches or stand on tall tables. We ordered different varieties of tacos and a burrito to try, and everything tasted really nice. The nacho with salsa and guacamole were probably my favorite. The salsa had a nice kick to it, without being too spicy. The service took a little while, but considering the sheer number of people there, I think that was to be expected. But apart from that, it's a great spot to hangout with friends and family. read more

Small portions. Pork was ok. No service to speak of. They're moving nearby..I sure hope they get their act together,

I waited an entire hour for my food and didn't get my food. We ended up just paying for our cocktails and received nothing but an attitude from our server. A couple came in after us and received their food before us. We receive zero accommodations for our wait I would not recommend. read more

I just recently visited this place, what stood out outside the food was the customer service and atmosphere. I enjoyed everything had breakfast one day and had to run it back a second. Imani was our server the first day, Harry was our server the second day. Definitely will be coming back on the next visit to ATL. Shout out to this business..... FYI, I purchased a few bags of grits, if you can wow me with that, than I know what comes afterwards is going to be even better. read more

Had an amazing meal at El Tesoro in West End. The tacos were packed with flavor -- I tried the carne asada and chicken, both super fresh and juicy. The service was quick and everyone working there was really friendly and upbeat. The outdoor seating area has a cool, relaxed vibe and great music playing in the background. Perfect spot to grab food with friends. Definitely planning to come back soon. read more

If you want a cool atmosphere el Tesoro is the spot, unfortunately if you want good food bring it with you their food is bland , cold , and the tortillas were gross read more

I'm new to Georgia so I'm always trying to find places that makes me feel like home because I'm from California. This place reminded me of down south, Rosarito. In the middle of a beautiful neighborhood there's a sweet little spot. It was busy but while you wait to order you can enjoy a nice drink from the bar. People are so friendly. I ordered Carne Asada tacos and they were on point. I should know because I'm Hispanic. Author We sat outside and the weather was perfect. The people around were great. They even served Victoria, beer, which is the beer we drink in Nicaragua where I am from. It was just so perfect. It made me feel like home. And very important is the food was great. I just wished I lived closer. I probably would be there every day. Go!Go!Go! read more

This is a newer location in West End. The service was deplorable. You order at the bar, get a table number, and wait for your food, either outside or inside. There was a huge line of about 20 people and only one slow, slow cashier in her early 20s. Another employee stood next to her but there was no alleviation of the line. Why it took two employees to take an order is beyond me. We waited 30 minutes in line and 40 minutes for our food. We didn't want to go elsewhere and so we stuck around. My friend and I ate outside on a bench. The exterior ambiance was nice, with a good number of people. My friend ordered a quesadilla and I ordered the tostones + guac and a soy chorizo burrito. The food was incredibly good. Both entrees came with a tongue-searing green sauce, which I loved but how do non-ethnic people do it?! I went inside to the counter and got more. They also use the cheapest possible plasticware that has a hole in the handle part of the knife to be eco-friendly but so far from practical. My friend's knife broke in half trying to cut his quesadilla. On a Thursday night it was packed, and it took us 10 minutes to find parking in a massive parking lot (just do an aerial view on Google and you'll see what I mean...). I can't imagine what it is like on a Friday or Saturday night. And I won't go to find out. read more

The food and atmosphere are both amazing here!!! The drinks are great I love the hibiscus mezcal its so delicious. The only thing that is frustrating is they have one person to take orders so the line is so long!!! Please get a second place to order read more

The first time I had food from this location, it was amazing and fresh. Every single time after, it keeps disappointing me. The tacos are soggy, the queso is half melted, the chips are too salty (and I love salt), my kid doesn't even like their kids quesadilla and they love everything! I keep giving this place a chance since it's close to me but I think I'm done. read more

Vibes are great here, but the food falls short. The burrito was mostly rice with barely any meat - for $16, it should have at least double the portion. I was getting just a tiny bit of meat every few bites. read more

People are generally nice and friendly. However, since they are restaurants, they lack knowledge about food. Yes, food! They don't understand or train their servers and managers about what constitutes vegetarian and vegan options, especially regarding dietary needs due to health, allergies, religion, or spirituality. While restaurants aren't obligated to cater to these preferences, they should clearly understand what is vegetarian and vegan vegetarian-friendly category and indicate it on the menu so customers can make the decision eat there or not. When the item says vegetarian, it means they consume milk and Milk products. Some even unfertilized eggs. But do not consume animal broth, fat or any product used or processed by killing an animal. Vegan further refined to eliminate milk and products including honey. For both, it is not acceptable to cook or fry along with the animal products. This place use lard (pig fat) ,chicken and beef broth but never indicated it. Even after checking with waiter and manager, they failed. Sad we couldn't even enjoy the chips which they fry along the animal products. Please fix this so we can come back and recommend it to my family and friends. read more
