I finally tried this place and it absolutely lives up to the hype. This place is the real deal when it comes to authentic Mexican food. There's almost always a line, but don't let that scare you--it moves quickly and is 100% worth the wait. The burritos are massive and hands down some of the best I've ever had. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you're looking for authentic, no-frills, incredible Mexican food, this spot is a must-try. read more

Their Asada tacos maybe the best in the classic city. The horchatas keep you in your feels, always attentive and pleasant service. Can't visit The Classic city and miss this spot! read more

Tacos Los Plebes - That's ONE taco! - Tacos Near Me - Athens, Georgia

Best Mexican food I have ever had. We go out of our way to swing by here. Food is amazing and service is great. I do wish they had better seating, but I'll eat these tacos anywhere. read more

This place is dangerously delicious! The prices are amazing for the amount of food you get, and honestly, me and my husband go here more than we probably should. Their carne asada tacos, intestina tacos, and barbacoa tacos are all absolutely delicious. The tortas are huge, flavorful, and definitely sharable if you're not a big eater. And don't even get me started on the horchata -- it's to die for. The ambiance is amazing if you choose to dine in -- super welcoming, clean, and comfortable. And the staff? So sweet, kind, and genuinely appreciative of their customers. It really makes the whole experience even better. I also love that they pack their salsas separately, which is such a huge convenience. I would LOVE to know if they sell their salsas by the container because they're that good. If you're looking for an amazing taco spot after a night out, this is the place to go. The only "bad" part? Just like Chick-fil-A, they're closed on Sundays! They also have a massive menu and even sell menudo. It's a great family restaurant, and it does get packed, so I highly recommend ordering pickup. 10/10 -- you won't regret it! read more

Good food, big portions and great taste. Don't let the line out of the door scare you. It moves pretty fast.

Excellent food. Nice people. Can have a line out the door ... but, worth it! Try the cabezza or lengua quesadilla. My husband loves their campechano anything. Wings: mango habanero: good! read more

MY first time visiting and I knew as soon as I drove into the parking lot, I picked a awesome spot because the line was out the door and yet it was moving fast as I got in line. The menu is well presented with very clear signs on the wall above the cashier area, the prices are very fair and service was friendly and efficient. One thing that really stood out to be was how much meat each Asada taco I don't think I have ever seen as generous of a serving with the street taco anywhere. Well I typically don't go to Athens, but I will be sure to visit this place when I'm back around lunchtime in the area. read more

Amazing Tacos!! Great service and super fast. Very clean and friendly. One of the best restaurants in Athens...along with Tlaloc.

OMGosh the most delicious tacos. My spouse said "you know how I've been all over Georgia looking for tCos that come close to the authentic ones I used to get in LA? Well I finally found them." And I said I don't think I can go anywhere else now and have tacos that won't pale in comparison. We had pollo, asada and pastor and they were all good. Yummers. We will be back!! Great service and ambiance (previous huddle house diner style). read more

The food was absolutely amazing and the portions were great!! I had the torta de carne asada and it was pretty big haha!

There was music playing and the setting was nice, you could choose to eat inside or outside! They also had a little table with crotchet items. Overall, quite nice!! read more

Good quality, good portions, blue-color approved. Everything you will get here will be fast and 100% delicious. I usually get the chicken or al pastor tacos but you seriously can't go wrong here. Their burritos are huge and tasty and I love their flautas! The service is extremely fast. The place itself isn't anything crazy but it is cheap, fast, and deliciously authentic Mexican food, read more

Best Mexican spot in Athens. They are usually pretty busy around lunch. They do a great job for as busy as they get.

Authentic! The flavors and choices are amazing. So good--just like in Mexico. Serving sizes are plentiful. My party had tacos, guacamole, and horchata. All were very nice. I'd definitely drive two hours to eat there again. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious. It's pretty busy so expect to wait a bit, but it is SO worth the wait.

This is one my favorite restaurants in the world and my number 1 restaurant in Athens. Please go it's amazing! The food comes out quick and is a very good deal, and the chorizo and campechano tacos are the greatest thing ever. La comida es muy muy muy rico, y me encanta read more

When we were in Athens for the day, I picked out Tacos Los Plebes for us to eat lunch at due to the current 5 star rating. We were both very ready for lunch. We easily got a parking space in their own free lot. When we walked in, only 5 tables were occupied, and three groups of customers were in line ahead of us. The employee at the order counter was very quick at taking orders and ringing people up. I ordered the flautas (chicken) and R ordered a carnitas burrito. We both ordered the horchata drink. We were given a number to place on the table to let the employees serving the food know which tables to bring them to. We waiting only about 10 minutes when a smiling employee brought our food, and, boy, were we surprised at the generous portions! I got 6 crispy-on-the-outside-and-tender-on-the-inside chicken flautas. I could tell that they were fresh because the chicken inside the flautas were not crispy or hard. Also inside my basket were sides of refried beans and Mexican rice. Shredded lettuce, avocado and tomato slices and quest completely covered the flautas. Everything in the basket was so delicious, and cranked up the heat by squeezing red hot sauce onto each and every bite of the flautas. R's carnitas burrito was cut in half before it was served, and contained carnitas meat, cheese, beans, lettuce, tomato, avocado and sour cream. He also loved every bite of it, especially after adding the spicy green hot sauce. Our horchatas were very nicely done. They had just the right amount of sweetness and the cinnamon sprinkled on top of the drink was a nice touch. While we were eating, the line got much longer, eventually going out the door about 30 feet. That's a lot of people waiting to order! About half of them were take out orders. The employees are so attentive and efficient. The men's restroom needed to be cleaned up, not due to trash, and I let an employee know about it. It was cleaned up by the time R went to the restroom to wash his hands. Every time customers left after eating, employees quickly bussed and cleaned up the tables. I never saw customers wait for a table. Talking about tables, not only are there tables indoor, but there are also picnic tables available outside, out on the grass, both in front and behind the building. If you're in the Athens area, check out Tacos Los Plebes for some great Mexican food. read more

This place was packed on MLK day which I knew the food was going to be good for a first timer. I ordered 2 Carne asada, 1 Chicharito, 1 Barboccoa Quesodilla, a side of cebollinas, and 1 Mango agua fresca because they were out of piña. My order came out right but I got 1 carne asada and 2 chicharitos instead. I didn't expect the pork skins to come with verde sauce (i'm assuming) because unfortunately me, I can't eat spicy. Spice levels weren't the spicy tho. Maybe a 3/10. Everything else was great--carne was amazing, quesadilla was to die for, and onions could use a little salt but that was my preference. The Mango drink had a hint of mango so you couldn't really tell besides the color. Overall, 8/10. Servings were good, price was great, would definitely come back again read more

(Posting this twice because I'm not sure which page is correct) BUT this is by far the best place in Athens to get tacos, sopas... anything AUTHENTIC Mexican you want. I don't eat much Mexican food in GA since I moved from TX because it's 1) usually not authentic 2) usually not good. However, this place is legit... they are the closest thing to authentic tacos, horchata, EVERYTHING that I've had in this state. I got 3 tacos, chicken, chorizo & asada. They were served with double tortillas & topped with cilantro & onion which is the typical street style that I loveeee. They had 2 salsas on the table- an orange one that was super tangy & spicy & seemed to be habanero based, and a green one that was more of a jalapeño based salsa verde. I also got a large cup of horchata, a slice of tres leches from a bakery in Doraville, and finally a side of refried beans. Everything was excellent quality, no suspicious or chewy pieces of meat in any of the tacos, extremely fresh toppings, tortillas, and the beans were hand made/mashed... I know this because there were some whole beans that didn't get mashed & they didn't have that canned taste. The staff was super friendly, the food came out hot & fast, and there was inside & outside seating. PLUS the prices were incredibly reasonable, after tip I spent a little over $20 for all of that food & left extremely satisfied & full. Overall, I loved this place and definitely will make a weekly appearance here. It does get extremely busy but it's worth the wait... I also love how this place hasn't changed to fit the area or to seem trendy. It has an awesome, authentic & family vibe and that also reflects in the food & overall atmosphere. Definitely worth a stop!!!! read more

I've visited multiple times, on my own and with co-workers. You won't be disappointed in this place. Real deal, authentic and delicious! My only complaint is concerning a burrito I had one day - it was overly greasy for some reason. Not sure if this is the norm, since I've had coworkers try and love their burrito. Personally, I love the tacos and, so far, have had tripa, chicharron, cabeza, chorizo, and carnitas. Tacos typically comes with cilantro, onions, limes, and radishes. I always add cheese - yum! I've also ordered the chips, salsa and queso (4/5) - it's a simple side dish. I've tried the mango drink (3/5) The service is great - my only complaint is that, sometimes, they will close the doors before the hours listed on yelp/google. Frustrating, especially if you are getting off of work late. Ambiance - there is outdoor seating. If you want authentic and delicious mexican tacos, don't sleep on this place. As for me, I'll continue supporting and loving the food. read more

The best tacos in town!! I got three asada tacos. The place was very busy, but for a good reason! The restaurant was not too loud or quiet, perfect for a casual dinner out. read more

It is a non-assuming location, probably what one might expect from an authentic taqueria. The service is friendly but not like a corporate type of monolithic restaurant. The food was good. And the corn tortillas taste homemade. The portions were huge. I ate one burrito over two days, and the meat was well seasoned. read more

Service great and food great and timely - no long wait. We enjoyed our beef burritos and the service was professional!

Can't believe I still haven't reviewed this amazing gem! It's by far the best tacos in Athens and one of the best in GA I'm sure of.

They will always be one of my favorites places to eat in Athens. read more

The fact that no one written a review of this place is mind bogglin'. This place is PHENOMENAL- I mean the prices are fantastic, the service is great, and the food - ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Try it. You will not be disappointed. The hubby and I were two of the happiest people you ever saw after eating here. And listen. I know authentic Mexican food. My credentials: my husband - of 23 years - is Hispanic. What I found to be one of the best thing we tried was the rice. I'm goin back for that rice very soon. It was delicious. Go and give them business and love their food and write a review. That's all. read more

Reliably good authentic Mexican food. Staff is competent and welcoming. You can't go wrong with anything made with their marinated pork.

Get it. You won't regret it. We ordered al pastor, tripa, asada, and carnitas. All came out looking so sexy.. that tortilla is hot and fresh. The rice and beans side is a bit pricey, but that rice ... ooof I could eat that just by itself. It's delicious. Would definitely come back. read more
