    Mega Burrito
    Will P.

    We typically go to east side for Taco Stand even though we live really close to this location. We decided to give this one a try and it was great! The employees were very friendly and we had a pleasant conversation with them as they took our order and cooked our food. Excellent service! For a Sunday night, it was a very chill environment. The food was perfect. We will be returning to this location!

    Taco Stand has always been my favorite Mexican eatery since the 80s. It is what it is: good, fast, tasty. Looking for white table clothes and a top flight wine list? This is not your place.

    Fish burrito missing fish!

    The Worst tacos I had ever had in my life. I attached some photos. Hope this helps. Wait time: 20 mins for 2 tacos I ordered fish taco and steak taco. Price is not so cheap thinking about the quality of food that I got. They used microwave for warming up fish and steak. Yes, microwave. It was utterly unbelievable quality of food.

    It is a unique place with good food. It's a good choice. This place has stood the test of time.

    Yummy, yummy. I didn't have a taco, we actually ordered the Baja burrito and a chicken quesadilla, both were delicious. Staff was very nice. The building itself is older Athens but it was clean. Will be back soon for sure.

    I actually like the quesadillas here; burritos too. This is an Athens staple to me (like The Grit). Usually good and always cheap.

    Hit the trifecta for everything you don't want in a dining experience:…read more Quality: Seriously would have been more satisfied if we had gone to the Taco Bell up the street. Quantity/portions: Embarrassingly puny (not that you'd really want more of it). Price/value: Outrageously overpriced, especially considering how the food tastes and how much of it you get. Clearly seems to be more of a sports bar / hangout (e.g., big TVs everywhere, dance club music) and a place to have Mexican cocktails than a serious "taqueria." To be fair, though, and this is why they get two stars and not just one: The service was friendly and attentive.

    Came to Raffery's for dinner tonight with my family. Everything from the food to the service was…read morefantastic! Our table was wobbly and without any issues Chris, or server was kind and cleaned a round table for us. The manager assisted us and helped us move our drinks and plates to our new table. I ordered the Russtler's Roost salmon tonight with the lime green beans. My salmon was perfectly cooked and it had a fantastic char to it. The glaze that came on the salmon was delicious! My husband ordered the rib eye. Awesome piece of steak with perfect char marks. Chris, our server was sweet and attentive! Our drinks never ran dry and she always had a beautiful smile on her face! It was a great dinner!

    This is a fun place to be, with an amazing service and food!…read moreThis is a place to enjoy with friends and with family! Has plenty of parking space, and it is located on a safe area. I loved it

    I did a togo order. So I will not be posting pics to be fair. This was my first time getting food…read morefrom the restaurant. The flavors were very good. The chorizo cheese dip had a little spice to it on the back end. It was a little too watery but with a good mix up it got better. The portion size ( got the small) was a bit disappointing. I chose the Texas fajitas. The meats ( chic steak and shrimp ) were seasoned and tender. The shrimp was just 4 pieces. Again the portion size. Under the proteins were the seasoned onions. I elected not to get bell peppers. The juice that formed with the onions was very good. They provide rice and refried beans on the side as well as lettuce and chopped tomatoes. The portion of rice beans and the melted cheese was small. They only give you three tortillas and I feel it should be 4. You have to think about the " stuff " to tortilla ratio. They give you a big bag of plain nacho chips. Plain. Not salted. We also got an order of the flan. Kind of small but good taste. The whipped cream and chocolate sauce was in a little plastic ramican the size of a papa John sauce so again one bite and you have used it up and the flan to whipped cream " ratio" is not there. I would definitely try them again for a meal on premises to get the sizzle and presentation. Once I do I will update the score if it is necessary.
