Nice cute place with friendly staff. Food is worth the cost, with hefty portions and extremely tasty food. I haven't had a lot of Mexican cuisine so I don't know how it compares, but I thought it was amazing and strongly recommend! read more

Los Atlantes - Chimichanga - Mexican Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

Saw the raving reviews and am so glad I stopped by while in the area. These were some of the best tacos I've ever had. The meat quality and flavor for both the pastor and asada were incredible. They put a lot of meat! Warm and not dry tortillas too. They gave me 4 sauces without even asking for my 3 tacos. Both looked homemade and the verde salsa that I usually use at all taco spots was way more flavorful. Will come back for sure. Another standout was the pastor meat was saucy and seemed like there was a hint of sweetness maybe from pineapple? If so, 10/10 because pineapple is always a perfect pairing with pastor tacos but a lot of places don't use it. If you like tacos come here!!! They also have bakery as well. read more

Absolutely delicious. The tacos were so good. Also really loved the horchata - a bit sweeter than I usually prefer but such good flavor. Don't miss this place!!!! read more

Los Atlantes - Birria Tacos Dinner and Los Altlantes taco dinner - Mexican Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

I took out dinner from here. The place seems to be a popular spot. I saw a lot more people taking out food from here. Platillo de borego was an interesting dish with lamb meat. It comes with a choice of green and red sauce. Green sauce is spicier and more flavorful. Chimichanga was my other dish. That was really good as well. I also went for a large horchata. The quantity was a lot. Overall good Mexican food for reasonable prices. read more

Their enchiladas and soups are absolutely delicious. The mole sauce in particular is so rich and complex. Not many reviews here are talking about the bakery portion of the shop, which deserves a mention. The pastries along the right wall are huge and very affordable. You pick which you want yourself with the provided tray and tongs and pay at the counter. The pastries are surprisingly not as sweet as they may look, which was a nice surprise. There are also desserts and drinks to order as well as a small snack selection. Lots of people order larger cakes for special occasions such as holidays like Día de los Reyes or birthdays. I haven't done so, but may in the future. To me it looks like this part of the store actually brings in most of the business. read more

We are getting spoiled in Madison with so many choices for excellent Mexican food...and Los Atlantes is certainly one of the better choices. Located in a strip mall on South Whitney Way, Los Atlantes is a cafeteria-style restaurant, complete with a small bakery. Service was fast. The mole enchiladas were excellent, with a particularly rich and flavorful mole. The platillo de borrego (a succulent lamb stew) was also very good. read more

Amazing food and service! The people are so friendly and the food is very fresh and super tasty. We had four different meals and they were all excellent, as were the bakery goods! Don't judge the place by its look and just go in and enjoy. You won't be disappointed. read more

They the TRUTH. Vamanos!! Foods fresh and authentic. Open at 8 am/- because they're also a fabulous bakery. Tamales and tostadas at 8am. F yeah. read more

This place rules. Burrito and concha were both top tier. And super quick. Store had good vibes. Will be making this a regular spot.

This is a great gem - easy to miss - on the west side. We were able to modify multiple menu items to be vegetarian. The churros were amazing. Lots of seating. My kids were welcome. Easy parking. Tons of food and super affordable. Small selection of candies, frozen treats. Lots of people getting cakes while we were eating. Thumbs up!! read more

I ordered a round tres leches cake for a birthday party. OMG it was so good, I kept half that cake and gave the other half to the birthday girl. The owner was great to work with. I placed the order with only two days' notice and arranged a pick up on a holiday! That surprised me, but how convenient! I've eaten here several times since they've opened. They have pan dulce and on some days, you can buy a bag of day-old pan dulce at a reduced price. My co-workers love the Taco Tuesday specials, the breakfast platters, and they say the coffee is pretty good too. read more

Delicious Pan dulce! All clean and organized. A lot of options! Voy a regresar más a menudo!

High quality food for a low price, and excellent, fast service, what more can you ask for? For those living in south Madison near Fitchrona, it can be tough to find good food. The few nearby options tend to range from mediocre to bad-- but not Atlantes. To be clear, it's not the best Mexican food I've ever had (Metro Detroit boasts some vastly superior options), but it's definitely among the very best in Madison. Combine that with cheap prices and a short wait with excellent service and you've got an excellent spot to hit up. read more

Not enough chairs for our group of seven. We had to split into two booths. They only had one high chair in the whole place which doesn't lend well to a family with twins. They were out of several drinks. Service and food was decent. We didn't care for the salsa, it ended up being to spicy for any of us to eat-we generally don't mind spice. read more

Don't sleep on this place. Almost hidden next to Walgreens, they have a killer breakfast burrito, beautiful pastries and great service.

The food here is super solid. Got the birria tacos and chips and green salsa. Both of these were pretty good, the birria could have been more flavorful though. I also ordered a concha and wouldn't recommend it. I ordered pretty late at night, but the concha I got was stale and super dry. Decent food overall though! read more

The reviews for this place are spot-on. Myself and 4 others ate here last Saturday night, and we all loved our food. We definitely plan on going back! Several of my dining companions really wanted to try out the mole sauce, and they unsurprisingly thought it was fantastic. Whether it was smothered on enchiladas or a plate of chicken, it worked for everyone who tried it. I tried the chicken enchiladas with green sauce, and was really happy with it. The enchiladas were filled with well-seasoned chicken, and the green sauce (which is less spicy than the other options) was delicious. After devouring those, I mixed the leftover green sauce with my rice, and it was a nice finish to my meal. The tamales were also very good. All of the bakery items were extremely tempting, but we were all too full to even consider eating a bite more. Perhaps next time! The restaurant space itself is cozy, clean and overall seemed quite nice. Staff members were also great, and our food arrived quicker than we anticipated. Despite being a bit of a drive for us, we were all very pleased with our trip to Los Atlantes. Based on this first visit with friends, I definitely feel comfortable with giving it a recommendation. read more

Authentic! That's the word that comes to mind when I walk into Los Atlantes. I always order tacos al pastor...having lived a short time in Oaxaca...it is comfort food for me. The meat and ingredients are fresh, the price reasonable. Their baked goods (tres leche cake), which you can buy by the cake or by the slice are amazing. The pan dulce is much sought after. It's all fresh baked in house early morning. I think they supply the pan dulce to a lot of other Mexican stores in the area. As a native Californian, this spot is a bit of heaven. I go about once a week since discovering it. read more

Everything we've had so far is delicious and well-priced. Especially the burrito w pastor and chimichangas. Specials are good as well. Kind owners and a good place for a sit down meal or for take out. Also have paletas and pastries in the store. Update: Taco Tuesday $1 beef tacos! Yum. read more

My new favorite Mexican restaurant! What a hidden gem this is! My husband and I have heard a lot of good things about this restaurant and we're eager to try it ourselves. My husband had the steak enchiladas with red sauce. He said it was tasty and the red sauce had just the right amount of heat. I had the chicken chimichanga which delicious! I should have asked to get an order of sauce to go; it was sooo good! The waiter was friendly and the service was quick. We will be back for sure! read more

Got takeout from this new local Mexican restaurant in the Meadowood strip mall on Raymond Rd. Delicious! Reminds me of Taqueria de Guadalajara on Park St. Authentic Mexican food. Pork tacos were sweet, almost like BBQ pulled pork meat, steak meat tacos were not strips like fajitas but rather had a ground beef look to them (but were steak). Tamales were pretty good, nice meat to masa ratio; rice was chicken flavored, no tomato base at all like traditional Mexican rice. Beans were great. Thick with a little queso cheese on top. Enchiladas only come one way, chicken and cheese; had ours with verde sauce. They give you verde sauce for the tacos - not sure if there is a red sauce or salsa; didn't try the guacamole, will next time. Tacos are two corn tortillas each with onions and cilantro. Will go again! read more

They have great authentic Mexican food. I went there just wanted to try their food. Its definitely a hidden gem.

Super tasty. Got three tacos (steak, chicken and marinated pork) with the beans and rice. Tacos were double corn tortillas which I love and the steak was super delicious. I also loved the 2 salsas (green and red) that come on the side. Perfect amount of spice. Will definitely be stopping by again soon. read more

Super good! We got the Mexican style al pastor tacos and steak tacos! Good portions for the price.

I was discriminated against because I'm black. I ordered 4 tacos, waited 15 min. Some melanin deficient guy comes in places a large order gets his food in less than 10 min. I'm standing by the counter the whole tome.They start cleaning up so I decide to remind them I had placed my order before the guy that just left. He lied to my face and said the guy was first. Then had me wait 10 more minutes before asking me what I ordered. He then cooks it and sends me on my way. I try to support local businesses and wouldn't think these people who also get discriminated against would treat me so low. read more

This place is 100% a staple for us and they make my favorite el pastor tacos in town. The food comes out fast and the woman who works the counter is so sweet! We've also had their guac which is always made fresh and they have two killer sauces a red and a green which we can't get enough of. We are so happy that this little gem is tucked in our neighborhood! read more

You MUST try the mole sauce!!! I had it on chicken enchiladas with rice & beans. It is to die for! We recently moved to the Madison area from Southern California where I've tasted my share of mole sauce. This sauce is the best I've ever had! read more
