Finally!! We have found a neighborhood no frills Mexican restaurant. We got the fajitas with steak/chicken/shrimp, all cooked perfectly. Not one piece was overcooked and dried out. The queso and margs were great too. Prices are more than fair and service was fantastic. read more

I have been dining here for about two years, and I have never experienced service like I did today. Unfortunately, the service was very disappointing. Our server did not introduce herself and gave the impression that she was uninterested in providing service. Once our food was delivered, she never returned to check on us or ask if we needed anything else. As we were finishing up and needed to-go boxes and the check, I had to call the restaurant to request assistance. The individual who answered the phone also lacked professionalism and responded in a very nonchalant manner when I asked for our server to come outside. It was not busy at the time, which made the experience even more confusing, as we appeared to be the only guests seated outside not receiving the same level of service as others. The food, however, was excellent and the highlight of the evening. La Botana, please do better and ensure all guests are treated equally. read more

We stopped here for lunch and was greeted by great service. Our waitress was extremely attentive and friendly. Very accommodating for vegetarians! They had wide menu selection. We ordered the veggie quesadilla with broccoli and cauliflower, veggie burrito with peppers, mushrooms, and onions, and the cheese enchiladas with broccoli and cauliflower. Food was flavorful and hot. Margarita was medium size (20oz) and strong. Only complaint was that the chips were hard and tasted little stale. But the salsa was good. Ask for the hot Habenero salsa! read more

I've been here two times in the last week! The food here is so yummy and not expensive. The 22oz skinny margarita is my favorite and the service is always good. I really like how it's lowkey and just offers great food. This place does get VERY packed and sometimes you have to make your own parking space. The patio is a vibe and I'll probably be back next week. read more

La Botana is a rare hidden gem. One of the last cheap Tex-mex spots for families and friends! The food is comfortable, nostalgic, and familiar. Though their general menu is run-of-the-mill Tex-mex, you can always try their specialty items which offer authentic Mexican flair! Not to mention, $12 JUMBO Margaritas. Service is great, the restaurant is clean and tidy, and the food comes fast. La Botana has become a staple to my family. I definitely recommend trying this place out! read more

Restaurant is small but when I came here on a Saturday, I didn't have to wait. The chips were warm and the salsa was mid. I got the carne asada tacos with rice and beans. I told the waitress I wanted corn tortillas, but was given flour. The rice was bland. The margarita was alright. Very mid Mexican food. Would not come back here. read more

I will be honest, i don't usually go for Mexican food but this was near by so i decided to take a chance! Best chance I've took so far! It's not easy for me to find flavorful eatery to fit my liking, but this was IT! Sooo good! The birria tacos were filled with meat & the dipping sauce was so gooood!! That was also a plus! The taco loco salad was also great! My server was very attentive & gave me 3 lemons for my water, i really appreciated the extra lemons. :) I also brought birria tacos back home to my son who barely took a breath while eating LOL .. It is a mom & pop type of environment. Him & I will definitely stop in again for a quick lunch! read more

I love Mexican food and their sauce isn't too hot. They have great margaritas and I like their chili and guacamole

Pretty good. Quick service. Decent food. Good prices. Nice patio. Not overly flavorful or huge portions like some places but decent

We've been eating here and getting takeout for several years. The service is quick and friendly, and the food is always tasty. The chicken soup is excellent (we get it without cilantro), and favorite dishes include fajita nachos, any combination dinner, and if you're really hungry try the Guadalajara Especial. And their salsa is top notch. read more

I've been here a few times for lunch and the food is always great. Customer service is great too! This time was the same, but I didn't expect to be charged $1.50 when I asked for a little more sour cream, LOL. Regardless, the food is good so I would still come back! read more

Service was good, waitress was nice. Food came out fast but it was lukewarm. Let's talk about this food..... NASTY!! How do you mess up a quesadilla? You mess it up by putting cheese sauce instead of shredded cheese. The salsa is a tomato purée, nothing in the salsa at all. Not even any flavor, taste just like tomato purée, I ordered the a shrimp and steak quesadilla. I would not recommend this place to anyone..... Sorry not sorry!! I should have known this was not going to be a good experience when I saw that it was Tex-Mex..... I prefer real Mexican food. Also, beware of the $1.00 up charge for adding flavor to your margarita. The margarita that you didn't taste any liquor in. This was definitely a one and done, never again. read more

My absolute favorite restaurant in the area can't beat it it has authentic options and everything I've tried was amazing

Love this place! It's right by my house and it's so good! I get the quesadillas almost every time cause they are the perfect amount of cheesy. Quaint inside and cute patio. Staff is super friendly. You can tell everything is home made which is great. Sad they are closed on Sundays but definitely go there a lot. Convenient, great value and quality. read more

We heard about this restaurant through The Drive radio station and thought we would try it out. Well... we are certainly glad that we did. The server was polite, patient to us first timers, and very accommodating to our questions. The regular margaritas were fantastic! They were not watered down and had an excellent blend of liquor to juice. The food was proportional to our appetites and the taste was very appealing, not like you'd get at some other Mexican food restaurants. Actually, we'd say it was a higher quality than others. Thank you for serving our local community with delicious food that is reasonably priced. We appreciate it! Wendy and Larry read more

La Botana looks like it's been in the same location for awhile. I was looking forward to coming here for dinner tonight after reading the more recent Yelp reviews. Unfortunately, I came away from the restaurant with just an average dining experience. Parking is free and ample in the parking lot that wraps around the restaurant. I was able to get a parking spot not too far from the front door of the restaurant. As we walked closer to the restaurant, which has lots of glass so that we could see inside, we were able to observe that, at least along the glass windows, there was no social distancing to speak of. We walked in and were greeted immediately by a masked employee. We told her that we'd like a table for two, and pointed out an empty table that was away from just about everyone else. The employee told us that we could sit anywhere we wanted, so we went to the table we had already picked out, and we were about 8 feet away from other customers. We were given menus and glasses of water. The menu is rather extensive. So extensive that when our server came to the table to take our order, we weren't ready because we hadn't read everything on the menu yet. When the server came back about five minutes later, we were ready; R ordered the carne asada tacos and I ordered the chile Colorado. Chips and salsa were brought to our table soon after. Although the chips were warm, they seemed a little stale, and the salsa wasn't the least bit spicy - it was kind of bland, actually. Looking around, I noticed there is a bar area, but I don't know if they're actively using it because no one was sitting in that area of the restaurant. I thought that the two TV monitors hanging on opposite sides of the restaurant was different, since this place doesn't tout itself as a sports bar, nor is it a fast food place. Within 15 minutes, our food was served at our table. My entire meal was hot (in temperature): chunks of tender beef in dark red, slightly spicy chile Colorado sauce, with a side of delicious refried beans topped with cheese, a side of bland Spanish rice and three small flour tortillas that were wrapped in aluminum foil. R's sides of refried beans topped with cheese and the Spanish were hot, but his three large carne asada tacos were served warm. I sampled half of one of the tacos, and thought the meat lacked flavor. My chile Colorado was a lot more flavorful than the tacos. During the time we were in the restaurant, I could hear someone periodically coughing at a table on the other side of the restaurant. Who goes to a restaurant nowadays with a cough? Needless to say, I ate my meal quickly and then put my mask back on. Food is priced very reasonably, and they provided portions that are on the large side for the price points. Service was good. For a place that calls itself "Tex-Mex Restaurant," it lacks overall spiciness. read more

Carne asada fries are bueno! Service is always quick at lunch and it's budget friendly!

Always a treat when we get to go to La Bot! Margs are yummy and the cheese dip is great!

Great food, great service! This restaurant has been a neighborhood classic longer than I've been alive, and that's for a reason. You won't find better (or more affordable) mexican than here. read more

This small place doesn't look like it will transport you straight to Mexico but the food does. We come here all the time and out favorite meal is the Texas quesadilla!!! They load it up with steak, chicken, and shrimp with bell peppers and onions. We also get the la botana grill which is rice , veggies steak and chicken smoothed in cheese dip. ( we ask for the sauce on the side because if can be too much at times) The chicken rice soup is the best during the winter. It always makes me feel better ( I add hot sauce it open up my nose when I have a cold) The salas is my favorite salsa very good cheese dip as well. Drinks are strong as well they have a great selection of liquor read more

Hubby and I were at Jim Ellis getting the car serviced today. It was taking a while and i was hangry. Jim Ellis being an awesome dealership said they'd get a lyft to somewhere for us to eat (and return). We decided to try La Botana. This place has been here forever. We got there at the right time. Few cars then it started getting busy. So happy decided to go here and not Mad Italian (I love them too). First off the house margaritas were delicious. The burrito especial was awesome. Tacos Really Good . The salsa was delicious. Why did I wait so long? Never again. It's now a go to. read more

Quite a bit on the dirty side! Service was good we had a birthday celebration and they brought us delicious sopapillas with chocolate! Don't order any extra flower tortillas for your fajitas or Kearny Asada without expecting a charge! Flour tortillas were not that good store-bought! Carne Asada $12 Meat was overcooked cheese enchilada was good beans were good Food is fairly cheap but they get you with their margaritas small size is $9.95 and they're very watered-down! Couldn't really tell if alcohol was even in it read more

I thoroughly enjoy this restaurant. Have been here many times. Very friendly staff, who remembered me even after going MIA for a year or two. Appears to be family owned. Food is authentic. Great flavor. Probably the best salsa I have had. The place is always pretty full on a sunny evening...weekends especially. I took a buddy and he was shocked at the size of the medium spicy Margherita he ordered. The large frosted Margherita's could probably satisfy 3 people. I had their taco loco salad with chicken, I usually do shrimp, and had them add rice beans and grilled peppers/onions/jalapenos. They customized that perfectly. It was enough for two meals. I paid about $15. My buddy got the fajitas and was very pleased. Easy parking and location. Skme of my favorite restauranteers :) Planning to visit regularly! read more

La Botana has been one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. I use to frequent there for lunch when I worked in the area years ago. I was in the area on Friday so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to drop in for lunch since it had been years since I last ate there. It looked exactly the same as I remembered. I placed my to go order with the Owner who was very friendly and welcoming. I originally was going to order the shrimp quesadilla, but he suggested the seafood quesadilla which had more seafood and other veggies for the same price. The seafood quesadilla was a great recommendation. It was very good and filling. I will definitely be returning whenever I am in the area again and I want Mexican food. I was happy to see covid restrictions being followed and the employees wearing their masks properly. read more

My husband and I love La Botana. We come here almost every week. We usually order the Enchiladas Rancheros, La Botana Grill (with chicken and refried beans instead of rice), or the Birria tacos. We also order the Jamaica (pronounced hu-my-kuh) to drink which is a beverage made from hibiscus flowers. They make it better than any other place I've been. It's great for my hubby's blood pressure so we actually get it to drink at home sometimes. The prices are reasonable and portions are great! read more

La Botana is my local neighborhood Tex-Mex restaurant. Literally down the street from my apartment complex. Atmosphere: I would highly suggest sitting outside if the weather is nice. Not much of a view, but it usually feels good outside, as long as it's not the winter or raining. Parking: Decent sized parking lot. You won't have trouble finding a spot unless it's Cinco de Mayo. Food: I've been here several times and have usually had the quesadillas, fajita skillet, and many of the combination specials. La Botana has really low prices, which is one of the main reasons I like coming here. This go around, I had the Fajitas Tacos ($8.25), which comes with rice, beans, lettuce, guacamole, sour cream (hold that), & pico de gallo. As I've had the fajita skillet before, it tasted the same. Really good! Customer Service: It's pretty fair. Our waiter was attentive and checked on us until after he check came. I'm not sure if he forgot, but 15 minutes went by and he never came back to take the card, so I took it inside to him. Overall, if you want some good, cheap Mexican food, I would definitely recommend La Botana. read more

This was definitely one of the best shrimp quesadillas that I've ever had. The tortilla was homemade with the perfect crisp, absolutely amazing. They were extremely fresh, big and they were very generous with the amount of shrimp. I also never had a quesadilla with mushrooms but it was the perfect combination. It was served with a side of lettuce, guacamole and Mexican rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and the price was under $10 my kind of spot. Please stop by when you are in Chamblee, they won't disappoint. read more
