Inside
Tia R.

The lighting, merch, and building are beautiful. As a designer I appreciate the choices that were made. But I'm here to talk about the food, the parking lot that only opens on one side and the staff. The staff members were warm and inviting. I ordered to go with ease and the food came out in good time. When I opened the burrito I realized why the menu stressed it was over 1 pound. When I read this on the menu I thought it would be big and filling. Incorrect, it was small with no salsa or dips and I didn't care for the added French fries inside. Onto the burger which was sizable but did not come with a side for $16. My comment would be add a side. I also ordered chips and queso. Everything was ok tasting I really enjoyed the tortilla chips. I don't think I'll be back. The drinks did sound interesting though so maybe I will order chips and drink after eating somewhere else.

The place has an amazing patio right off the beltline. I stopped by on a weekday afternoon they also have a pretty good happy hour with drink and food specials. We tried the Baja fish Taco, the pork belly taco, the mahi burrito. Everything was cooked to perfection with good portion sizes. The trio with the salsa queso and guacamole was pretty good too. The salsa could be more balanced in its flavor was over smoked.Will definitely swing back to try the drinks and chill on the patio. Of note it's counter service so order at the counter and come back to your table to get the food delivered.

Tofu burrito

My meal was great! I love that they serve breakfast all day! And such a cute outdoor seating area that's pet friendly.

I got to say that their grilled corn ribs were AMAZING. It was flavorful, came out nice and hot, and needed to have more on the plate for what it's worth ($6). I'd get that again as an appetizer. We tried 3 of their tacos and tried the corn shell (don't do it, bad idea). The corn shell was thick and dry. We got al pastor, Muchacho style, and pork belly tacos. I think the tacos were okay to be honest, kinda boring. The blue matcha ($5) is not good as a latte. The flavor is bland, it's really for the aesthetic. The pea flower powder turns it blue with a hint of lemon. The iced chai was a bit watery. I'd honestly give muchacho an updated 4 out of 5 stars (the corn ribs really boosted it from a 3/5). Free street parking if you can find any but there's a parking deck nearby.

Indoor dining area

This is such a nice spot off the beltline! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, we really enjoyed sitting on the patio on a nice day. Dogs are also allowed. Food is delicious and they serve brunch. The drinks were also very good. The service was great, we have a few people check on us and all were amazing. Maya and Jalen were great! I will definitely be back.

Muchacho is a nice spot for a causal lunch or happy hour. The trendy industrial style interior adds to the casual atmosphere. We ordered at the counter: a harvest bowl, and 2 tacos (fish and shrimp). The weather was nice so we sat outside and posted up at a table and pulled out our laptops. Our food came out quickly. I was given two shrimp tacos instead of one fish and one shrimp. The server was great and brought out a fish taco without a fuss. I really appreciate good customer service so I was happy that she made it right.

Birria Verde Quesadilla
Taina J.

I recently came back to Muchacho's after a long hiatus, and it didn't disappoint! There was some new staff that I encountered that were as sweet and welcoming as the ones that I had come to know, and one of them stuffed red that I should try their new item since the last time I've been there: Birria Verde Quesadilla. This has to be one of the best birria dishes I've ever had! The meat was so juicy, tender, and well seasoned. I was also happy that they provide a generous amount of meat. The consomé was the true star of the dish! The amount of flavor in it truly took me by surprise in the best way since it packed a punch, and the bits of meat within was super tender and soaked it all up. I honestly could just eat that as a soup alone! I highly recommend ordering this dish when you visit!

Muchacho held an event for 404 Day and had music, a tequila tasting, and their typical menu. The food was tasty and I really loved my cocktail with mezcal in it. The place is very vibey and spacious. The food and drinks are reasonably priced. I think it's a great spot to hangout with friends and grab some food and drinks. They also have a parking lot out front which is super nice because parking in this area can be really difficult.

Interior vibe cool
Joe V.

A quick summation -- just go and visit Vibrant indoor and outdoor patio. Casual with something for everyone. I enjoyed the new menu item Ray Mysterio - packed with flavor on a beautiful sunny ATL bluebird kinda day !! The service was friendly and helpful!

mahi FISH BURRITO
Chelsea S.

loved my meal and the service was superb. i had the mahi burrito and a chai ginger beer. the burrito was yummy and super filling. i got it with vegan cheese and tried both salsas. on a regular day i would've saved half but i was so hungry so i finished in one sitting. the chai ginger beer was surprisingly good. def more ginger than chai but i enjoyed and id try again! i loved the ambiance and plethora of options for seating. i sat in a covered area outside near the bar so i could still get a taste of outdoors while being cozy at a table to work.

Marian D.

Im always happy to come to Muchacho honestly. The food is tasty and consistent. The people are always quick and friendly. Ive come here to work from home before and it was great energy and atmosphere to do so. They have coffee, breakfast tacos, lunch and drinks. Needless to say, I was there for a while but I made sure to make a good tab and tip. Disliked - Disliked - Disliked - Disliked - Disliked Corn Tortilla: Way too thick I've tried a couple times and I think took away from the ingredients of my taco because I focused a little to much on the texture/volume of the tortilla.

Bowl
Tank J.

Stephon was amazing today! He took care of a large group by himself. He remembered all the orders and fixed any errors without problem.

Harvest bowl with steak
Natalia P.

I was looking for a healthy bowl for my to go lunch and this harvest bowl really satisfied that craving. It was really healthy and after adding my own hot sauce and an avocado it was a 10/10 meal.

Do they have bike parking?

Indeed they do - there are bike racks outside of the restaurant.

How's the parking?

There's ample space in the parking lot.

Do people come to study and work here or is the environment not great for that?

I would say the environment is OK to do some work. But I wouldn't come to study. Maybe too noisy. But it could just depends on what time of day you come.

Do you have gift cards?

Hello! We do! You can purchase gift cards in our store or online here:… Read more

Do they not have their avocado toast anymore? It was the main reason I'd go there over other coffeeshops. Thanks

Yes they do still have the avocado toast and it's still delicious! 😋

Do you have gluten free options?

Hi! We have several gluten free options. Our corn tortillas for our tacos are entirely gluten free. Please ask your server to guide you through the menu on your next visit.

Very good food . Nice ambiance. A real cut above chain restaurants…read moreFriendly staff. Its a fun lively place. Food came out in a reasonable time.

The first time I tried to come to El Rey Del Taco, I couldn't find a parking spot. I've been back…read morethree times since then, and I understand the hype. They have quickly become my favorite place to get Mexican food. Let's get into it! Location and Parking They are located on Buford Highway in a small shopping plaza. The lot is medium sized, but they are sharing it with a few other businesses, and depending on the night it could definitely be hard to find a spot so keep that in mind. Venue and Atmosphere The venue is decently sized with both booths and regular tables. There are beautiful paintings hung all over, and the decorations that make you feel like you've stepped into a little part of Mexico. Atmosphere is super casual and comfortable. Food and drinks Now the menu here is massive. Take your time and prepare to be overwhelmed, because everything sounds amazing. Here's a breakdown of what we got each time. 1st visit - El Rey Del Taco Parrillada It's meant to be shared with two people, and comes with a pound of beef ribs, your choice of chicken or al pastor meat, six shrimp wrapped in bacon, with melted cheese and chorizo, plus tortillas and charro beans. It was just as delicious as it sounds. 2nd visit - Tacos The pastor con queso and the shrimp al pastor with cheese, onions, and al pastor sauce. You're welcome. 3rd visit - Fajitas Fajitas Texanas, with steak chicken and shrimp. There are 7 different combinations of sides that you can get. We got white rice, salad, and charro beans. This can also be shared, which my wife and I did. Speaking of the charro beans, they have the best beans I have ever had. For drinks I got the supreme regular mango margarita. My wife got strawberry. Both great. Service Food came out fast, but other than that the service was a little slow. Our waitress was nice, but it did seem that she forgot about us for a little while. The food was so good that I forgave it, plus at the end of the day I got everything I needed. Verdict If you're looking for amazing food and drinks, this is absolutely the place to get it. It just might end up being your favorite too! Until next time!

It was a little pricey at $14 for 3 small-ish tacos, but each taco was packed with meat. I also got a taco de la abuela with pastor meat. For their street tacos, they have normal street tacos for $3.25, or for $0.25 more you can get the same taco with a handmade tortilla (aka taco de la abuela). I didn't try a normal taco, so not sure if there's a notable difference in the tortilla, but I thought the pastor taco was solid as well. I felt like perhaps it was lacking a little in flavor? But I do appreciate the amount of meat that's given. The slices of pineapple are nice as well - very authentic. Throughout my dining experience, most customers were picking up/taking orders to go. The restaurant is kept clean and there's a serve yourself salsa bar. I'm glad that I've found a good taco spot nearby! Parking is a bit limited as the lot is small and is shared with other small restaurants as well.

I can't believe it took me this long to eat here since I've driven by so many times. The parking…read morelot 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.

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.

Halal tacos in a small store in a gas station - how can you get more authentic than that?…read more The meats served here are all halal, which is great! I got the beef Birria, steak Birria, and barbacoa tacos. The consommé itself was a little watery and tomato-y, but the tacos themselves were of decent quality and flavor. The beef Birria was better IMO than the steak, which was a little chewier. The barbacoa was definitely hands down my favorite - out of them it was the most flavorful and tender. The salsas they gave on the side were good too - spicy, tangy. The seating in the store is very limited (only a few tables, not well spaced out), large groups would be hard to accommodate.

I think I saved this spot due to some friends recommending it. Pretty decent food for a gas station…read morespot. The hubs choose x3 shrimp birria tacos while I had the beef birria quesadilla. I believe the meats here are halal. The crust of both the taco and quesadilla were crispy and had a nice cheese crunch. But trying other birria spots, these were okay. Good but nothing that would wow. The consome dip was actually pretty watered down. I know places make them differently as I've had versions with meat bits in them and another with rice. But their version was just watered down. The shrimp ratio was pretty sad. The beef is actually more bang for your buck. Though I didn't truly count the shrimps, there were about 3 or 4 of those baby shrimps. They didn't look nor tasted like they were doused in flavor. The shrimp was just so so. Sort of bland in taste imo. The beef had a nice kick of flavor. There was a good amount of beef to my surprise. Another friend's beef taco version looked like it was stuffed with meat as well. There was just ample seasoning and flavor with the beef. Psst. If you're thinking x3 tacos vs x1 whole quesadilla, go with the quesadilla. You're sort of getting another piece since the quesadilla is cut into four quadrants versus just 3 tacos. Though it's a different form on presentation, you're going to be getting more for the same exact price.
