We ordered the taco bar catered from Little Rey for our party at Lake Lanier and were surprised that they could have it delivered all the way up there. A bit pricey per head but everyone absolutely loved it and said it was the best Mexican they ever had. Made our event so easy and delicious! read more

This place is great! Stopped by for the first time and was really impressed by the food and friendly service. Tahlia was such a warm face upon entry and was very helpful guiding me through the menu while pointing out her favorites. I will definitely be back! I had the carne asada tacos, chips with queso and guacamole and everything was great. Thank you Tahlia! read more

I can't believe it took me this long to eat here since I've driven by so many times. The parking lot is always full and was so on this occasion on a Sunday evening. We waited only a few minutes and was able to navigate the small lot to get a spot. There is a designated window for pre-orders and walk-ups have a separate line. It wasn't that long when we were there, but was out the door when we left. Ordering was easy as we got a chance to preview the paper menu, and we were given a card to place on our table once we found it. There was plenty of seating options despite the full lot, but it was nice out so a lot of people were out on the patio with views of the busy intersection. The decor was modern and airy. We checked out the salsa bar while we waited for our appetizer and I found the jalapeno roasted garlic, which was spicy and amazing!! Our appetizer was the con queso and I added chorizo, which I highly recommend. It was plenty for our party of 4 and they'll give you more chips if you need them for the amount of dip you get, just ask. I got one each of the steak, chicken, and carnitas tacos on corn tortillas. The steak was my favorite and I loved that you could taste the smoke in each of the meats with each bite. The grapefruit marg was strong! We were in and out in well under an hour. read more

Little Rey is so stankin cute. It has a modern industrial design with pops of eclectic color. Their menu has so many amazing sounding dishes but I came just wanting some tacos. You order at the counter and find a table. I got the steak and chicken tacos, and side of chips and guac. Food came out quickly and I loved the steak taco. The meat was tender, flavorful, and it had a bit of delicious smokiness to it. They also have a salsa bar where you must try their green and red salsas. I was a huge fan and it's worth the hype for sureee. read more

Wow!!! What a great spot. Convenient, fun, amazing tacos (especially the Oaxaca) and wonderful staff. One of the best tacos and salsa spots in Atlanta...and in the South for that matter. 5 stars all day long. read more

I was in the area and decided to visit this gem because someone on Instagram posted them. The steak taco is so delicious and tender. The chicken (you can taste the smoke) they have many options of other items I will most definitely be back to try. The cilantro rice is so good and the beans and delicious. They have options of alcoholic drinks or non alcoholic. You get a selection for your sauces. The service was great and not a long wait. The ambiance was family friendly and nice. read more

I thought this place was all hype, but I could honestly say, they have some good eats here. We came for a late lunch and I loved seeing everyone in their respective team's soccer jerseys. It's counter service, so you order from the counter, they will give you your drinks and chips before you get seated. I tried their aqua Fresca of the day, which was a hibiscus tea - it was super tangy at first sip but the ice watered it down to tame down the tartness. Their chips here are yummy. I love a good thin, crispy chip. I thought their guac was good, but not the best I've had. They also have a salsa bar and we tried most of them, but my favorite was the chipotle salsa. I ordered the arroz con pollo (roughly around $10) and was super filling. It had rice, beans, grilled chicken, kale and pickled veggies. I could only finish half of it, so now I get to enjoy the other half for my lunch tomorrow. My husband got the half bird plate that he demolished. One thing to note here is service. Everyone was super friendly and approachable. read more

Tacos were really good with quality meats. I got the steak and carnitas tacos and both were really full of flavor. Service was fast and efficient. It is extremely overpriced though as a single taco is about $6 and they are street style so they are very small. Not much value but really good. read more

Little Rey usually does good for me but today the special, fish taco, really disappointed me. There was one very small, thin piece of fish on my taco and lots of fixings. I think they tried to cover it up. This picture is after two bites. I hate wasting money and this taco makes me feel like I did. read more

Little Rey - Fish taco - Tex-Mex Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I was meeting a friend for lunch and she suggested this place. She gave me two locations to choose from and I chose this one on Piedmont. It is a very cute restaurant. You order at the counter upon entry and take a sign to your table that's the staff uses to deliver you the correct food. I had the superica salad and it was delicious. I also tried my friend's chips and queso, and that was also good. The one downside is that it was steaming hot inside. Because of how hot it was, I ordered an aqua Fresca, which is their hibiscus lemonade. It was delicious and not too sweet. While we were dining, we were asked to move tables so that they could work on the air conditioning which required them to enter the ceiling above where we were originally seated. They wanted so badly to comp something for us for the inconvenience of moving tables, so we eventually settled on ice cream. The ice cream was a Dulcè de Leche flavor, which I didn't love. The bathrooms are outside the main entrance, and require a code for entry. You have to get the code from the staff. Overall, this was a good experience and I would go back. read more

I really enjoyed the one taco I ordered here. I got the steak taco and honestly if you could buy them in a combo or trio I would have loved that. Got 1 chicken taco for my daughter with a drink for her and my taco and a frozen margarita which was great but at almost 40 dollars uhg. Going out to eat anymore is a drag cause everything is so dang expensive. At least we enjoyed the food. read more

I love Little Rey, I frequent here pretty often! The tacos are made in the restaurant which I love, the food is always delicious, and they have a lot of options to choose from on the menu! The staff is very friendly, and if you choose to dine in they give you a fun little card to put up at your table and they bring your order to you. Other than that, the rest is mostly self-service. The interior is very cute, with hanging plants and plenty of seating options, indoor and outdoor. If you like spicy tacos, I highly recommend the shrimp diablo tacos (#9)!! The grapefruit margarita and frozen margarita are also really good, I prefer the grapefruit one, but the frozen marg is great for the summer. Overall, 10/10 I definitely recommend coming here!! read more

Was celebrating a friends birthday this evening and we decided to stop at Little Rey's for a bite to eat and a refreshing margarita. A couple of takeaways: The food is very fresh and the ingredients hold a lot of flavor. I believe they make their tortillas in house, which makes the tacos that much much better! I did enjoy the margarita, however, it is not me to order as they are premade. For it to be a premade margarita it is very tasty (and kind of strong lol) but I always would prefer something made fresh to order. If you are like me, I would say still give it a shot. If you don't mind premade margaritas, this is probably one of the best that I've ever had. We went on a Saturday evening and it was very crowded. There was very little parking so it was quite the struggle.. So, keep that in mind if you're going on a busy day/night and with a group of people like we did. You order when you walk in and then you find your table. with that in mind, there was a very long line and they only had two registers/2 people taking orders. I would definitely say despite it being crowded, the wait was worth it. There were a moderate amount of inside and outside.I love the aesthetic of the restaurant as it is very appealing and clean! I would definitely go back to Little Rey but will likely avoid a day that has high volume/traffic (which will likely be on a weekend) read more

The food tasted good but the prices are much higher than what they should be. Paying $6 - $7 per taco is ridiculous especially when you do not get chips and salsa. You order at the counter and they give you a card to place at your table. They will then bring your food to your table. They have a salsa bar for you to grab your own cutlery, napkins, and sauces. I got the El Diablo, Al Carbon, and Chicken Quesadilla. The El Diablo is a shrimp taco with their hottest sauce and jalapenos. It is not that hot but it tastes great. The Al Carbon is a basic taco but it is cook to order. The Chicken Quesadilla is pretty basic but it tastes great. read more

5 stars. Little Rey never misses. The vibe is laid-back, the service is quick, and the food hits every time, but the real standout is the smoked wings. They're packed with flavor, tender all the way through, and have that perfect smoky finish that keeps you reaching for one more. You can tell they take their time with them. Easily some of the best wings I've had in Atlanta. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to. read more

Visited with a coworker while on a work training. She visited several years back and enjoyed it. It was our first meal while in Atlanta. We both opted for a small chips and queso. They accidentally rang us up as a large and a small, which we didn't notice and the manager visited our table to apologize and refund the difference. We had no idea and told him as much and to his credit he said, we noticed, we were wrong and we need to make it right. So props for that. I ordered the Aroz con pollo, which I will admit I didn't realize would be a salad as it normally isn't, but I didn't look closely at the menu when ordering. I also ordered two locals drafts. The place was extremely clean and neat. You order at a counter and then find a seat. It's at a weird intersection so if you Uber, make sure they know where they are going. It was a decent experience and I would go again next year. read more

Run don't walk!! This place will knock your socks off!! I really enjoyed these specialty tacos and breakfast. The pancakes with a touch of salt really take it up a notch! The service is amazing! Ambiance is great. Keep in mind l, this is TEX-MEX. Not traditional Mexican food. But boy to they do it right! read more

We came here on a Sunday morning a little after 9am and there wasn't a huge crowd but by the time we were leaving, there was a long line out of the door. They do have a lot of seating though so there shouldn't be a problem to get in. Definitely know what you want before you go because you have to order at a counter when you walk in and they will deliver it to your table. I had the bacon taco and the breakfast chalupa. Both were very simple dishes; however, they were both so tasty and flavorful. We did get some of the sauces they had to add to your food and the verde was my favorite. When I have a bigger appetite I definitely want to come back and try more items on the menu. read more

I think this place is excellent. Tacos are amazing and fresh, reasonably priced, and well executed. Chicken is fantastic! In a world where tacos basically fall out of the sky, this is a step above. Casual, counter service, clean, cool, and they have iced tea - which is importantly to me. read more

I moved away from Atlanta 3 years ago and I still think about little Rey weekly if not every other day. Truly miss it so much. The queso, the el Diablo taco, the wings, the SOUP. You cannot find anything like it in the Boston area. I'm truly sad about it, like it affects my mood. I really miss it. The frozen marg also like omfg. If anyone from the LR team sees this my husband and I are very legitimately wanting to partner on opening a sister restaurant in Boston. It's the only way I can think to fill this gap. I MISS YOU LITTLE REYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. Also ps one time there was a person who seemed potentially homeless who came into the restaurant and was lingering around a bit while we were there. Rather than kicking him out the manager came over, took his order and gave him a free dinner. Quietly, without causing a fuss. In the world we live in today the kindness is refreshing. Love to see it. read more

Great customer service and wonderful food. The online ordering is very easy. They have your order ready at the end of the bar!!!!

Food was great Service was awful first the lady at the front taking orders was rude and unhelpful. When we asked her for her opinion on a taco she snapped i don't know i don't eat here. Also you have to ask for the bathroom code. So when we went to ask for the code you would've thought we insulted the workers whole family the way he glared and snapped the code at us. read more

WOW!! I've been wanting to try Little Rey for a while and this did not disappoint. I came with some friends on a Saturday morning for brunch. Parking is a little tough but luckily there's an overflow lot next door behind the Starbucks. We parked there and walked over and had a small line (about 15 min). I love a fast casual restuarant so we placed our orders, got our drinks and then sat down with our table numbers. My friend and I split a cafe de olla (iced latte + horchata) and it was SO good!! Reminded me of cinnamon toast crunch cereal milk and was just the right level of sweet. For my main, I got a chorizo breakfast taco and a chicken al carbon taco. I also split an order of the hotcakes. The tacos were SO good and definitely lived up the hype!! But my favorite actually had to be the hotcakes. Wow, these were so yummy and the syrup it came with was basically like a dulce de leche!! I loved the caramelly goodness. Overall, great experience and want to go back for lunch/dinner soon! read more

The food here was mediocre at best. My bill came out to 40-50 dollars for come cold tacos. I was really disappointed because just like Superica, this place came highly recommended. The service was pretty good, but the failure was the taco here. I looked the salsa bar but I'm just at a loss for words for the taco itself. The ambience was chill but can't say I will be back unless the tacos will be hot and fresh. read more

If we weren't with locals, I might have missed this. It seems to be in a business park and on a Sunday eve, it was pretty quiet until we got to Little Rey's. There was a lot of traffic there! A line when we arrived but it moves pretty quickly. You order at the counter and they bring the food to the table for you. We got chips and queso, great start! They also have a salsa bar and lots of fun options there. I order the Al Carbon Chicken Taco, with Guacamole. I know a chicken taco sounds pretty common, but there is nothing common about this one! That chicken Al Carbon is so tender and full of flavor! A really great taco! I think they are known for their Al Carbon items so definitely try that out. I also had the Diablo Shrimp taco. (reminder Diablo .....hot). It was pretty spicy but very good. We were traveling with a toddler who got the Quesadilla, which I got to admit looked very good also. I understand why this is so popular, plug it in your Map App and find your way! read more

This place was well recommended by a few friends at Station 9 - AFD!!! We had the pork belly tacos, chicken tacos and the aroz con pollo bowl. I can't stress enough how the meat was seasoned sooo well! This brought me back to my childhood memories of living in California with street tacos. Soooo delish!! The tortilla chips are always nice and hot - get the guacamole..there's salsa (taste them all) my favorite was the jalapeños ranch. It changed my life!! Whenever you're in the city..get here early!! Their tacos will bring all the girls to the yard!!! read more

Very over priced, does not feel authenticate at all. Never very flavorful if I am being honest, even the salt is off which is the bare minimum. Best thing comes from the vibes rather than anything. Service is regular. So many more real authentic spots for half the price and better food. read more

Hold on to your wallet. Food is good, by all means eat here if you like Tex-Mex food. It's not authentic Mexican but it is worth the stop. Having said that. You're looking at $6+ per taco which are small. read more

This place was yummy but it a bit on the pricey side. The carnitas taco was $5.75, where most other places it'd be $3.50 or so. The chicken quesadilla was a better value - it was also $5.75 and was more filling. Their queso is good! It's got a thicker consistency and comes with a generous mound of chips There's a good amount of seating inside and is a good spot for a casual date night. It feels lively but not too loud and you order at the register so it can be easy to avoid the awkward situation when a waiter assumes that everything is on one check. Decent amount of parking available, but it can run out. read more

Yummy! Really good prices and really good food. Was in town for a conference and met up with my friends. Love the fact that there is AMPLE parking here, which is Pretty non existent in this area. Very causal, and there's a pet friendly patio. My big dog was along for the ride. They had a water bowl for him. Service was pretty quick, and they out the heaters on for us since it was a bit chilly. The prices are very reasonable, and you get a portioned size amount. (I do wish the portions were bigger. I was starving!) pretty yummy beer menu and some great non alcoholic drinks as well. The inside is pretty cute too, with different types of seating throughout. Def recommend! read more

Now I get why everyone loves Little Rey's, it met expectations! Food - We went for breakfast and had some breakfast tacos (Steak & potatoes) and also the Avocado Tostada. The tortillas are made fresh and you can tell. I would order the tacos and tostadas again! Service - It's a walk up and order then they deliver your food to the table. Our experience was great. While your food is being prepared it's a great spot for catching up and enjoying their iced coffee! Ambiance- Cuteeeeeee! They did a great job making the place so inviting and open for such a busy place. Restrooms - Clean, pretty cute, and definitely selfie-able. A must try! read more

Oh. My. God. I totally get it--those tacos are amazing! I actually came back three times during my stay in Atlanta too. You really can't go wrong here. And that queso? Hands down the best I've ever had--no contest. The ambiance is pretty casual and lively, especially with families and kids around. If you're looking for a quieter spot, I'd recommend sitting on the patio, perfect for a date night or just a chill evening. The service can be a bit slow, but honestly, it's just because they have so many customers, and it's totally worth the wait. Just plan a little extra time for your visit. Pros - Cute establishment, warm during cold nights, delicious chicken, tacos and queso. Must I say more? Cons - longer wait times, very limited parking read more
