Birria quesadilla
Gabi L.

Food was pretty good. Husband thought it was a little salty but I thought it was great! Drink was delicious. Note it's smaller thank you think it will come out however no problem at all. The atmosphere was so fun with a lot of decorations for Halloween. The down side was we never got any share plates so it was pretty messy.

Second time here and the novelty may have worn off. The food is not good enough for those prices! My poor Mexican father had to pay $10+ for 2 birria tacos and the consomé is sold separately... Definitely fun for drinks and a vibe, and maybe worth splitting an appetizer or the nachos with a friend or two, but nothing else for me personally!

Valentines Decor

Rreal Tacos has spared no expense getting ready for the upcoming Valentine's holiday. Plenty of decor and menu items to get you and your loved ones in the mood. The family and I had a great night out on a Tuesday to celebrate a birthday (and there were at least 3 other birthdays celebrating at the time as us). The restaurant is conveniently located in the DTL just behind Lawrenceville Lawn. There's a small parking lot between the Lawn and Rreal Tacos that has a good amount of parking, but could be full depending on what is going on at the Lawn and surrounding areas. There are also many other lots surrounding Rreal Tacos that may be used (including Southlawn). Reservations are recommended. There is a big hostess stand as soon as you walk in should you mind not waiting to be seated. Our waitress was plenty nice and the service had a nice flow, we shall return!

I absolutely love Real Tacos, and the Lawrenceville location did not disappoint at all. You can really tell how fresh everything is, from the food to the overall experience. My forever favorites are the pork belly tacos and the picanha tacos. If I'm not mistaken, the pork belly tacos used to come with pineapple before, and now they only have onions. I truly miss that pineapple because it added such a special sweet touch. They are still delicious, but that little detail made them next level for me. The service was honestly a 10 out of 10. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and super fast. I also love that this location has a patio where you can sit outside, which is perfect on a nice day. Their cocktail menu is extensive and everything I've tried has been amazing. They also offer non alcoholic cocktails, which is great if you don't feel like drinking alcohol or if you're with kids. One thing I really appreciate is that they serve the salsas separately so you can help yourself and choose how much you want. One of my favorite dishes aside from the tacos is their esquites, which are a solid 10 out of 10. The costra tacos wrapped in cheese are also very popular and for good reason because they are insanely good. The only thing I would change is that they don't serve complimentary chips. For a Mexican restaurant, that feels a little sad since it's something we all expect, but that's just a personal wish. Everything else makes up for it. The place is spacious, very clean, the bathrooms are spotless, and the food comes out quickly. The picanha tacos with chimichurri and pickled onions are perfection. They also have 11 locations across Georgia, so even if Lawrenceville isn't close to you, it's worth visiting the one nearest to you. Don't skip dessert either because their tres leches is delicious. Overall, this place is a 10 out of 10 for me and I highly recommend it.

I had to come back again. My favorite Mexican restaurant in the square! I set at the outside bar and ordered two premium margarita! Not at the same time. The bartender did a great job! The outside bar had a relax vibe and wasn't too crowded. I also ordered a pork belly quesadilla and the two tacos special (carnitas). Food was on point!!!!

We stopped by Rreal Tacos in Lawrenceville and it was such a fun experience. They currently have their Christmas theme up and it's all Grinch-themed! The whole place looks festive and over the top in the best way. Definitely loved the vibe! They even have a special Christmas menu, which includes Birria Ramen and a Coquito Flight, of course we had to try it. The coquito flight was delicious and the drinks overall were strong, so no complaints there. For food, I ordered a Birria taco with consommé and a Costra taco with steak. Tacos were absolutely delicious, super flavorful and perfectly cooked. Everyone at our table loved their meals too. Between us we had chicken nachos, Birria ramen, and more tacos, and everything looked amazing. The only downside was the service was a little slow, but to be fair it was very busy for a Sunday night so we understood. Parking was also a bit tricky, so definitely plan for that. Overall, super fun vibe, festive holiday theme, strong drinks, and great food. We'll definitely be back! ESPAÑOL Fuimos a Rreal Tacos en Lawrenceville y fue una experiencia muy divertida. Actualmente tienen su tema navideño y todo es de temática Grinch! Todo el lugar se ve muy festivo de la mejor manera. ¡Definitivamente me encantó el ambiente! Incluso tienen un menú especial de Navidad, que incluye Birria Ramen y un flight de Coquito, por supuesto que tuvimos que probarlo. El flight de coquito estaba delicioso y las bebidas en general fuertes, así que no hay quejas allí. Para la comida, pedí un taco Birria con consomé y un taco Costra con bistec. Los tacos estaban absolutamente deliciosos, súper sabrosos y perfectamente cocinados. A todos en nuestra mesa también les encantaron sus comidas. Entre nosotros comimos nachos de pollo, Birria ramen y más tacos, y todo se veía increíble. El único inconveniente fue que el servicio fue un poco lento, pero para ser justos estaba muy ocupado para un domingo por la noche, así que lo entendimos. El estacionamiento también fue un poco complicado, así que definitivamente planea eso. En general, ambiente súper divertido, tema festivo de vacaciones, bebidas fuertes y buena comida. ¡Definitivamente volveremos!

Tempura fish, shrimp, pork belly
Matt S.

Went to Rreal Tacos in Lawrenceville on the week of Thanksgiving. It was abundantly decorated for Christmas and has festive drink and food options. I started with the Rudolph cocktail and it was delicious and christmasy. I got three tacos: Tempura fish, shrimp, pork belly. I liked the shrimp and pork belly the best. The spicy pineapple margarita was also great.

This was the newest location of RReal taco. We could not make reservations because at that time it was not allowed. Probably because it was just opened and they were not ready or capable to take reservations. The line was wrapped outside the door for people waiting to get tables. I guess this is downtown Lawrenceville so there was nowhere to park. We did end up parking across the street somewhere. It was free parking there. I didn't see where there was street parking available. I know the food truck was out front and that took up parking if you are able to park there. It is close to apartment buildings and perhaps you could find parking there but everywhere we went it was very congested. One of the reasons I wanted to come here was because they have these speciality drinks called Margarita flight,Flavored Titanic and Titanics. I couldn't order either because you had to have a minimum of 4 guests. It was only 2 of us so that really disappointed me. At some point I will probably go back with friends but I was super excited to give those a try. Once we finally got in it didn't take really long for us to be seated. It was lots of people inside so the noise level was a little loud. The waitress was nice and the food was good. We ordered the birria pizza. It was delicious. We did get chips and salsa. This was the first time we had to pay for chips and salsa. All the taco restaurants I have ever been to were always free. They did have the 3 sauces on the table. For whatever reason I didn't really enjoy any of them. I did try them all just to see how they tasted but none of them were for me. They do have a nice variety of items on the menu so I will definitely be back to try some more things.

A friend told me about this restaurant and the awesome Halloween decor so we had to try it out. It was a lot of fun! The food came out quickly, and was very good. Our server was great too. Definitely want to go back before Halloween is over.

This is the regular (beef) birria taco and the burrito bowl with the steak protein.

this Rreal Tacos is absolutely amazing!! I ordered a burrito bowl with the protein choice of steak and a birria taco with steak. Absolutely amazing. The steak in the bowl was cooked perfectly and it was so juicy and flavorful. The rice was so delicious and the beans added an amazing flavor. The onions added a nice crunch too. The taco was probably my favorite thing. The steak was perfectly juicy with an amazing flavor and the slight cheese gave it an amazing mix of flavors. The sauces they gave me was such a great addition, the spicy sauce with the savory meat was such a great combination. My waitress was also so amazing! She and all the other staff were wearing amazing costumes and it was so festive. The most memorable thing about this restaurant is the decorations! The Halloween decorations and the lighting was just so perfect and added such a spooky touch. Overall, this restaurant is absolutely amazing! From the food to the staff to the vibe. I absolutely recommend coming here!

My family and I went on a Wednesday evening to celebrate my daughter's birthday. While we did make reservations I did see people walk in. The restaurant itself is completely decorated for Halloween which add a little razzle dazzle. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of the menu and attentive. Everyone in my party was pleased with their order. I found the portions to be more than reasonable. We all had left over food. Its also worth mentioning my daughter loved and devoured the tres leche cake she was given in honor of her birthday. While this may not be your regular taqueria something still feels authentic in the food..its not watered down American Mexican food.

Queso with chorizo
Dee Renè L.

Food was delicious, atmosphere is fun but not too loud where you can't have a conversation and the drinks are delicious. Recommend the upgrade in tequila not only so you can get a cute little ducky lol but it tastes better. The Picanha Steak Taco was my favorite and the queso with chorizo. Attentive service and prompt

This place is super modern feeling. During the lunch hour they were minimally busy although our server was a bit slow. They apparently did not have sweet tea or Diet Coke? Although the soda selection was questionable the food was very fresh and delicious!

What is wait time like on the weekend?

I used the Open Table app to make my reservation (which was recommended on their website) so I had a very short wait time under 8 min.

Beautiful Restaurant, but the Food and Service Were a Major Disappointment…read more We recently tried Anejo in downtown Lawrenceville, and unfortunately, we left very disappointed. I really wanted to like this restaurant because the inside is absolutely beautiful--stylish, upscale, and definitely has that "bougie" atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food and service did not match the beautiful surroundings. When we arrived, they turned on the music, but not a single television was on. The restaurant almost felt like it was still getting ready for customers. First, the menu is confusing. Lunch, brunch, and dinner items seem to be mixed together, and it took some effort just to figure out what was available. There are plenty of creative, upscale tacos, but something as basic as a traditional ground beef taco isn't offered. We asked our server, Abigail, and she told us they simply don't do ground beef. We started with drinks--a Verano Sandía and Skinny Margarita--and unfortunately, both were tasteless. At $12-$13 each, we expected much better. We were also never offered another round of drinks during the meal. We ordered the queso dip with chips, but the queso needed to be much warmer. Ironically, one of the best things we had was simply the flour tortillas dipped in the queso. And I will give credit where it is due--the water was nice and cold! For my meal, I ordered the Taco Clásico Trio with chicken on flour tortillas. It took a long, long time for the chicken tacos to arrive. Meanwhile, our server was tending to other tables and seemed to pass us several times without stopping to give us an update. When the tacos finally arrived, the chicken was super, super dry. I ate only about one and a half tacos and couldn't finish the rest. The accompanying white rice and black beans were also disappointing. They reminded me somewhat of Cuban-style rice and beans, which I normally love, but these had virtually no flavor. The black beans tasted mashed and completely underseasoned. The sour cream was room temperature and runny, which was not appetizing. We also ordered the Sopa de Tortilla, but it tasted more like a tomato bisque with chicken than the flavorful tortilla soup we were expecting. Again, there was almost no seasoning or flavor. The best way I can describe the meal is that it felt like eating Mexican food in an old folks' home--everything seemed stripped of seasoning and flavor. Mexican cuisine is known for bold, vibrant flavors, and that was simply missing from our meal. At the end, I politely told Abigail that the chicken in my tacos was extremely dry. She said she would alert the kitchen. However, after I mentioned the problem, I felt like she didn't want to have much more to do with our table. There was no real follow-up and no attempt to see if something could be done to improve the experience. We weren't even asked if we wanted another drink or dessert. At that point, it felt like we were simply being finished up and sent on our way. One thing really says it all: we didn't box up any of the food. We almost always take leftovers home, but we left the remaining tacos, rice, and beans sitting there. When we don't take food home, that's a pretty good indication that we didn't enjoy it. Our total was $62.76 before gratuity, and for the quality of the food and the level of service we received, it simply wasn't worth it. Another thing diners should know: according to the receipt, parties of five or more are automatically charged a 20% gratuity. If you're considering bringing a larger group here, I would recommend trying the restaurant yourself first. There appears to be a combination of American and Mexican-inspired dishes on the menu, but the Mexican side of the menu needs work. If you're presenting an upscale Mexican dining experience, the Mexican food needs to have the flavor, seasoning, freshness, and attention to detail to back it up. For comparison, we love Tequila in Lawrenceville. It may not have the same fancy interior, but we've experienced far better food and service there. At the end of the day, I'd rather have great food and attentive service than beautiful décor. Anejo certainly has potential because the restaurant itself is gorgeous. But the kitchen needs to work on seasoning, food temperature, preparation, and consistency, and the service needs to be more attentive--especially when a customer tells you there is a problem with their meal. Beautiful restaurant, but unfortunately, the food and service were not on point. We won't be back. There are too many other Mexican restaurants in the Lawrenceville area offering better food, better service, and better value.

I had the BEST MEXICAN dish I'd ever had and I'm still talking about it weeks later. I did not spend time reviewing the menu. I told my server what I wanted and I got exactly what I requested and it was TOP NOTCH! Started with rice, covered with queso, then grilled chicken/steak w/peppers and onions and more queso.

Not at TLH, but PERIOD. It was that good. (I'll have to think about it a bit, but it's definitely in the top 5.) My single complaint: it wasn't hot. It was warm, but not hot. Didn't make it any less wonderful, but I would have liked it a little warmer. The meat was perfectly cooked and lean. The green sauce was extremely tasty. The rice was nice and buttery. The green beans with onions might actually have been the best thing on the plate, or maybe I was just in the mood for sautéed green beans. For my appetizer, I picked esquite, which is basically Mexican street corn (elote) cut off the cob. It came "separated," meaning that they didn't mix it together; I got a HEAP of corn, some mayo, some crumbled cheese, and chili powder, and mixed it to my own favorite ratio. I didn't get a picture because I was too busy eating it. Server was very attentive and I didn't have to wait at all for anything.
