A Love-Hate Relationship with Mamitaco! So, picture this: I finally decide to check out this taco spot I've been dreaming about because let's be real--I loveeeee tacos like most people love their morning coffee (or their afternoon tequila). From the outside, Mamitaco looks like a taco palace--really, the kind of place where dreams come true. But once inside? It was like The Taco That Shrunk: the Interior Edition. After taking a seat, I eagerly awaited my water like it was a long-lost friend. Spoiler alert: waiting for water took longer than waiting for my laundry to dry in a monsoon. And don't even get me started on the chips and salsa--let's just say I'm pretty sure it was just salted tomato sauce. I was ready to drown my sorrows in tacos but my enthusiasm was fading faster than my patience! But then... drumroll please... I got my drink, the La Flor! One sip and suddenly I was on a Caribbean island, toes in the sand, and not a worry in the world. Until reality hit me like a taco truck backing up--our food was still MIA after a whopping 45 minutes. Cue the impatience and the foot tapping! Enter Maurice--the multitasking manager/bartender/all-around taco superhero. He swoops in with shots that were a heavenly mix. My brow lowered (in less irritation and more "thank you, taco gods") as the frustration faded. But then... OH. EM. GEE. The tacos arrived, and they were so goooood! Seriously, if I could marry a taco, it would be the crispy plantain with perfectly cooked steak. I could've devoured five without breaking a sweat! The Madurito and PC tacos had me torn--why did I wait so long for this juicy goodness? Now I'm torn between love and a strong simmering irritation at how long it took to get here! So, here's the deal: I hate you, Mamitaco... but I also love you. How rude of you to serve me such deliciousness after teasing me with long waits and questionable salsa! I guess this taco head has a reason to come back again, and probably bring friends (mostly for the tacos, let's be honest). #TacoDrama #LoveHateRelationship #MamitacoMagic read more

I have been to Mamitaco a number of times and they definitely do a great pop-up so I knew I had to go for their Valentines pop-up. I really wanted to get there mini heart quesadillas, but I prefer corn tortillas and they only had it in flour so I didn't get it. They looked super cute though. I did get their cute espresso martinis flight, and it was absolutely delicious! I loved every single one of them. It was nice and strong, but not to coffee forward if that makes sense. I originally ordered the birria tacos because I couldn't make up my mind, but at the last minute I changed to the madurrito bowl and I'm so glad I did. This was an entrée on their Valentines menu and when I tell you, the steak was seasoned to perfection! It was packed with flavor and the sweet plantains complimented it very well along with the Chipotle mayo. I really enjoyed the whole combination. The staff was friendly as well and made sure we were well taken care of. I've never had an issue when I've gone and they've never disappointed me. read more

I dined in at Mamitaco with four friends last Saturday. The customer service truly took a 3.5 food experience to the next level for me. Our server Maurico was phenomenal. He let us know that he would be the best and truly showed us. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and he made her and our table feel special with a free drink and the staff sang her a song too. He was also familiar with the FULL menu & could speak to his favorites. A few of my friends ordered his drink recommendations and I ordered an entree from the special Halloween menu after asking for his opinion. I am not sure if the birria crunch wrap will return but it was BIG and flavorful. You can certainly eat half there and take half home. I opted to eat my full one because it had sour cream & lettuce and I felt that it would not warm up well. The fries reminded me of the kind from Mcdonalds, but they tasted fine. I ordered a drink with mezcal & pineapple & it was great. I couldn't help but notice that they went all out on the decor for Halloween! I thought the special menus were so creative too. It was a fun dining experience for adults and kids too. I noticed servers giving cotton candy to the little ones and everyone was so friendly. My party was happy with their food and drinks. I would return for a meal if in the area, ready to try something new ! :) read more

MamiTaco is a great place for Mexican food. I had the monster burrito and loved it. Excellent food quality and very good service. Outdoors seating options in a covered patio or open air. Highly recommended! Not like traditional Mexican restaurants w "number 11" standard, though those are great too. This is more cooked to order authentic menu items. read more

We have been loyal customers here for nearly three years, visiting almost every week and recommending this restaurant to countless friends and family. Until now, we've never had a single complaint. The service, food, and management have always been outstanding. Unfortunately, our visit today was a complete shock, and it pains me to write this negative review. We were told the kitchen was a bit behind due to new staff, and we said we didn't mind waiting as long as the food was good. After waiting for over 45 minutes, what finally came out was unlike anything we've ever experienced here. The quality was night and day compared to what we've grown to love. * The tortabirria we've ordered many times came out on a hot dog bun cut in half, topped with lettuce and tomatoes--completely unrecognizable. It should NOT have tomatoes and lettuce! * The steak street tacos, which originally made us fall in love with this place, were bland, chewy, and flavorless. * We traded the tortabirria for mole enchiladas (a dish we've always enjoyed), but the tortillas were dry as the desert and the mole sauce was overly bitter. * To top it off, my garden taco, which should have been vegetarian, came with meat inside! Thankfully, the margaritas and service were still amazing. Our waiter did everything he could and was kind and attentive throughout. I actually felt bad for the servers, because it's clear they're having to carry the weight of the kitchen's mistakes. But while the service was wonderful, the food itself was extremely terrible. The most disappointing part was that no manager came by to check on us or the other tables. In the past, management has always been attentive and proactive. This time, there was no sign of accountability. This was such a shame. I left feeling so sad and disappointed. We don't plan to return for a while, but we truly hope things improve. It would be such a shame to lose what has always been our favorite restaurant, especially since we've tried so many Mexican restaurants in and around Atlanta and none compare. read more

Very Loud! We were yelling at each other to converse. Be prepared. Ordered the grilled shrimp Burrito. That's what I got. About 15 medium shrimp wrapped in a large flour tortilla. No lettuce, no sauce, nothing just the shrimp. They were delicious but for $15 come on. Oh and the obligatory tasteless rice and refried beans. Server was nice. Would I eat there again? Sadly no. Way too noisy for me and trying to be with friends. read more

I came here with my best friends to have some great Mexican food and to catch up. I do like that this location does have free parking. This place welcomes all ages and even has employees come out to celebrate those having a birthdays/other occasions. Our server, Mauricio was the highlight of the visit. He was very friendly and knowledgeable of the drinks. I got the signature drink (sad to say I forgot what the name was). The drink was amazing! I wasn't super hungry so I decided to get the Mami dip which was divine and packed with flavor. The dip came with shrimp, chicken and steak in it. We all came here at the end of the October which had the day of the dead theme ambiance. Overall this is a good spot for a good time and some good drinks. read more

Ordered a bunch of tacos and split them with the wife and a couple of the margaritas! The margaritas were the best I've had in a minute with flavor and tequila in the two for one combo meal! We went here some friends and they were really enjoying the margarita flights! Service was solid our drinks stayed full and the porch seating wasn't too hot and the service was solid! read more

I really really like mamitaco and would absolutely return if ever in Marietta again. The food was great and the margarita flights were kind of expensive but really good and quite unique, totally worth it! The service was awesome. We sat in the back area it was nice bc it was slow but was a Monday. read more

Overall, this place was good but not great The layout of the store is weird. They seem to have too many tables for the space they have so you really have to navigate to get around and may get bumped by every employee and customer just trying to go to the bathroom but they stay crowded I don't like that they don't have prices for their drinks. My friends got flights & the Valentine's margaritas flight was $30 and both of them didn't like all of the flavors. The drinks were pretty but 16oz total .. not sure that that's worth $30. I just had a $4 guava juice - lol it was good and worth the cost I ordered quesochorizo for the table - it was ok. ~$11 but flavor is kinda bland and it solidified very fast tbh. Prob would skip this next time Their salsa is also very sweet and I've never thought that about a salsa. Weird flavor, not my favorite I had the birria tacos & they were so filling, came very full of meat and a little cheese. The meat was tender & consomme was delicious! The "hot" sauce they serve isn't even spicy, more like a bitter pepper. 3 tacos ~$18 The beans were refried but were good! They had the place decorated for Valentine's and all of the decor was very cute. The parking lot was full but it's a huge lot so you'll find a spot, it just may not be right in front Id go back here and probably try some other entrees, maybe try the guacamole next time. read more

Eventually the service was good. Stood at the door for a while with 2 bartenders looking at me but no greeting. Got sat after a few minutes. Ordered a drink flight. No alcohol tasted. I also hadn't eaten all day and felt no alcohol effect while waiting for food. Cute drinks but basically sugar. Chips and salsa were excellent. Warm and fresh. Really enjoyed them. Steak tacos were dry. I had to pay extra for sour cream. Rice and beans were standard. I wouldn't come again unless a group of friends wanted to go because it seems like a cool place to hang out in with a group but I'd only order a soda and chips based on my first visit. read more

I had dinner with a friend at Mamitaco on a Friday night. It was really busy, so we had about a 20 minute wait. Our waitress was amazing. She was very attentive and friendly. She helped us make decisions on drinks. We both had a 24oz La Flor margarita ($17.95). It was so good, and made me feel like I was at the beach. It has hibiscus syrup, 1800 coconut, lime juice, and a splash of pineapple juice. We also both ordered the 2 quesabirria tacos for dinner ($13.95). These were delicious! They are homemade corn tortillas, flash fried in their special sauce. Stuffed with birria, Oaxaca cheese, topped with onion and cilantro. Served with rice and beans, and a broth and sauce for dipping. They have a great deal on Groupon, so be sure to check that out if you are thinking about trying Mamitaco! read more

Good 1st time experience. I was told about this place from a colleague. I tried a Birria taco. The La Freaky drink (very tasty). Im a bar girl, so thats exactly where I sat. The bartender was nice. She recommended good options. It's not a super big place, but its great for date, family, or solo dinner. read more

Our first time going to this place.... I was really excited about the drinks. And I will say that they didn't disappoint. However, I would have loved for the server to tell me what the drinks were on the flight. But the rest of the experience was a bit tough. Upon the chips and salsa coming out, the server tells us they were out of salsa. What?!? Out of salsa at a Mexican place? That was disappointing. But then it came out later and were excited until we weren't. The salsa was not good at all. Tasted like tomatoe sauce. The chips were also quite oily and stale. Then I get my meal. It doesn't look like the pic, I ask for cilantro and I onions and then told, no cilantro? Like seriously? Sooo I won't give up on this place just yet cause i loved the drinks. But get it together cause I want y'all to last. read more

I went for Cinco mayo, so perhaps things would be different on another day. My food had very little flavor, the music was so loud I couldn't hear the person next to me, and the surcharges for things we're crazy high ($2 for a little 1 oz cup of shredded cheese. On the plus side, the service was good and the drinks strong. read more

We went here to checkout the valentines popup they were having and it was so gorgeous! Cute decorations, neat limited edition menu and yummy food! Service was a little slow considering we went at 3pm and hardly anyone was in there. The food and drinks were a little pricey and the drinks weren't very strong but the food was good and flavorful! I would like to go back again and try the normal menu one day. read more

Tiktok inspired visit. Drove past gem going to my son's school. Always a good size crowd and music playing. The colors are so vibrant and draw you in. Tiktokers made this seem like a great little Mexican spot to visit. Let me say, there may be a wait so call ahead. You can see what the wait will be like. We stopped on a Sunday afternoon and there was a 90 minute wait. We went back that Monday and only a 30 minute wait. The Vibe was fun and engaging. The staff was interactive and friendly. The music was loud but not too loud. Flat screen tvs throughout to watch sports games. Loved the decor. The food was really good. Loved my birria tacos. Peach aqua Fresca was soo good. My son loved his burrito. His dad loved his tacos. The chicken wings were good. Fresh chips were good. We had to ask for salsa for the chips though. read more

Stopped in randomly, as we were looking for a restaurant with outdoor seating to enjoy the good weather. We were greeted, and I asked to be seated outside. Took about 10 minutes or less for a server to come, he was very kind and knowledgeable. It was taco Tuesday so we ended up ordering those, along with some alcoholic beverages. Everything looked amazing. Every drink and meal that came out we wanted to try lol. Our drinks were delicious, the ratio was perfect. I ordered a shrimp taco, birria taco and a street corn. The shrimp was tasteful, but the birria had little to no flavor. As for the street corn I requested more of the cheese, and it was good. I'd recommend just asking for extra toppings on the side so you can adjust it to your liking. Ended up getting these little shots from when they celebrated st.patricks day, and they were so good! We seen them at someone else's table and our server was so sweet and indulged us. Overall 10/10 will be back to try more things on the menu, it's a big menu, with an even bigger drink menu. So many choices, anyone can find something that they like on it. I didn't get to really check out the inside, as we sat outside, but next time will update! read more

The vibe at mamitaco is so fun! Surrounded by neon lights and custom stained floors! Very picture worthy! I went with a party of 6 and our service and hospitality was great from the hostess and the wait communication. Our estimated wait was 30 minutes but it only ended up being about 15! I visited on a bar crawl a couple years ago and HAD to return for their holiday cocktails. If you're looking for fun unique craft cocktails this is it! A lot of them are tequila base which is my go to. They were decorated for Christmas! Let's talk about the barría!!! I had the barría ramen and all the kids had the quessabarrilla chefs kiss!! The street corn was good ..*note it takes a little while to cook price is average. Can't wait to go back for the Mamipizza!! Mexican pizza with a twist!! read more

I love it here so much I love the food and the drinks. The service was good, Edgar was always making sure we were good.

My boyfriend and I came in today for an early dinner, around 4:45pm. We were seated immediately. Very shortly after, a waitress dropped complimentary chips and salsa off at our table. The chips were hot and toasty and the salsa was fresh with a subtle kick. It took a few minutes, but our waitress arrived to take our order. We were ready to order everything at this time. We placed our order and then everything started coming out pretty quickly. Samanta, our waitress, was very sweet and attentive. To drink, I had the culpable margarita. It was refreshing, but I couldn't taste the lavender at all, which was my main interest in getting this drink. All I could really taste was the cucumber and lime. Regardless, I enjoyed it. We shared a regular sized queso appetizer, which tasted as anticipated--it hit the spot! For my meal, I got the PC tacos with the fried shrimp. It was breaded perfectly and super crispy. I absolutely loved the flavors and textures. The rice and beans were standard and yummy as well. My boyfriend got the shrimp bowl, which left much to be desired. I took a bite and liked it, but unfortunately, he wasn't much of a fan. The decor has fun pops of color all around. It was a beautiful sunny day, so we chose to dine outdoors. The ambiance of the restaurant feels trendy and youthful. In lieu of traditional Mexican songs, they play Drake, for example. Personally, I prefer the former to the latter. This wasn't a dealbreaker though. My boyfriend would give an overall rating of 3 stars. I'd give 4. Since I'm the one with the Yelp account, I win hehe. We do agree that the prices seem pretty high for what you're getting. Personally, I would love to come back soon, especially to try more drinks because I saw some pretty exciting ones including one that was poured table side over a glass with cotton candy, as well as a colorful margarita flight. read more

We went there with 2 adults and 1 kid because this restaurant was so hyped up in the social media. It was supposed to be the next best thing in the suburbs. We'll, it was not! For starters, when we got there around 9:30 PM, the music with a lot of bleeped out words was blaring like we were at a club. We had to wait for about 40 min to get a table. The poor girl who was waiting the table looked so tired and when I asked her how her day was, she said it was exhausting. She informed us that they were out of hot salsa. The wait time for our food was another 40 min and it was sub-par. I am not kidding. We didn't order drinks, did see some margarita flights and some other fancy drinks being served to near by tables, plus the bar was buzzing. The dessert was not worth it. The churros were way too crispy. Bottom line, goto this place for drinks and to feel like you want to have a club like atmosphere. read more

An IG ad made me save it. Met with a friend the next day who suggested this spot. It was destiny. It was around 1pm on a Thursday and the weather didn't disappoint, so we sat outside to enjoy the sun. The Food: I started off with chips, salsa and queso. The salsa is made fresh in the kitchen. To wash it down, I opted for the house margarita laced with tajin on the rim. It had a nice bite to it - just how I like margaritas. Tried the crispy shrimp tacos lunch meal. The entree comes with beans and rice. I requested black beans and they had it. The lunch portion is BIG! I finished it because it was delicious. The shrimp tacos were dressed with some coleslaw with a chipotle dressing and a crunchier surprise from the pickled jalapeños without the heat. The Drink: Another waiter came out. I guess he spotted my margarita getting low and asked if I wanted another one. He was probably the bartender and wanted to see how it was. Of course I ordered seconds. He got what he was looking for. The Bathroom: very clean. The hallway to the bathroom was draped with a full length mirror and a pink neon smiley face. I couldn't resist taking a photo . The floors were black and decorated with glitter, purple, orange and green paint for a marbled look. The sink was decorated with a plant that looked a little thirsty, but I appreciated the effort. Def going to be my new Mex spot when I'm in the area. read more

I'll start by saying I'm willing to try this again at the restaurant... Okay I ordered the supreme enchiladas and the elote through a food delivery service and I was underwhelmed. Now some of my issues may be on Door Dash and not the restaurant but I'm not sure how that works. One thing, could someone please remove the margarita customization option off the order selection because they are delivering. I was surprised to see it, probably should've called to check versus just trying it, but that was disappointing. No toy in this not so happy meal. Second disappointed, there was no rice and beans with the enchiladas. Third disappointment, my elote looked like a can of Green Giant or Delmonte canned corn BUT IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE ANYBODY'S ELOTE. I called and asked someone at the restaurant El confirmed that no I shouldn't have gotten a margarita, my enchiladas were supposed to come rice and beans, and the elote could've had a sauce and cheese. The food wasn't special to me. Granted it was delivery but I've had take out from other places and the food taste great. I'll try again because the drink menu looks great and they have other items I want to try. read more
