Great people, great food, clean, and reasonably priced unlike everywhere else! I love this place.

I got the green tamale, chorizo tacos to cheese, and al pastor taco with cheese. The tamale flavor was alright but the green salsa on the side was great with it! The tamale texture WAS AWESOME! Fluffiest tamale ever! Just a lil smaller than I was used to but seriously loved it. The tacos were on the greasier side but the flavor depth was incredible!! I could tell the employee was just all around good vibes and I appreciated his attitude! The whole place had lots of Mexican candy including sour gushers if you are into that. Would def come back. Great hidden gem in dawsonville! read more

Takoz Express - Candy bar - Mexican Near Me - Dawsonville, Georgia

We came here based off reviews and were a little thrown off by the hidden location and lack of tables. The worker there who was the cashier and only team member we could see explained they were strictly a take out restaurant and had no places to eat at the restaurant. There weren't even any trash cans inside or out which meant they were strictly serving food for take out only and customers would have to eat elsewhere or in their car and throw away the trash at home or a gas station or in our case, car wash. We ordered tacos (steak and pastor) a torta and chips and guacamole and two small horchatas. The food and drink were solid - very fresh and simply put outstanding. I could see why they had good reviews and my wife and I were very happy about our choice for lunch. The salsas they served with our entrees were great as well. The guacamole was wonderful and tasted freshly made. Parking is pretty simple and this restaurant is a fantastic choice if you are shopping at the 400 outlet mall aka North Georgia Premium Outlets. 5 stars and a muchas gracias! read more

First time trying Takoz Express and the food was decent. I prefer more seasoning. The tacos are a bit expensive, but you get a lot of meat in them. Not sure if I was actually given extra cilantro and onions like I asked for. The limes should be bigger, as you get one small lime per taco and I could barely squeeze any juice out of a few of them. I paid .50 for extra limes not realizing that they were so small. Overall, I would try this restaurant again. read more

Takoz Express - 2 steak tacos with extra cilantro and onions, 1 shredded chicken taco, and a 4oz cheese dip. - Mexican Near Me - Dawsonville, Georgia

Excellent food and service. A tiny, family run business. They are always so nice. There is no seating, take out only. Recommend calling your order in ahead of time during peak hours. read more

Great Burritos, no tables inside, but the wait was worth it. My wife absolutely loved the horchata and the chicken quesadilla sorry no pictures(The food was too good to stop and take Stupid pictures). ***get the spicy red salsa!! read more

My wife came home from work on Tuesday and said they had ordered their lunch from an AMAZING Mexican Restaurant. She insisted we go and try it out on Wednesday since she was off work and it would be good for lunch. I was skeptical, but we drove to Industrial Dr and Lumpkin Campground Rd intersection at 12:55 PM and found Takoz. It is well hidden, beside Gilstrap and facing Industrial Dr on the side of the building in an industrial area. As often as I have passed this building, I have never known it was there. I would not have found this hidden gem if I had not been looking. Being an industrial park, parking was limited, but we found a space and walked inside. It immediately reminded me of many of the small mom-and-pop restaurants I visited as a child living in Miami, Florida. If you are looking for elegance and a seating area, this is not for you, but if you are looking for hole-in-the-wall authentic Mexican food prepared fresh to order, then you will LOVE Takoz Express. The lady working the front counter was super friendly and helpful and took our order shortly after we arrived. I ordered one each of the Steak, Chorizo, Grilled Chicken, and Pork soft Tacos. My wife ordered two Steak Tacos, a side order of homemade warm chips, and a large Guacamole that was freshly made at the restaurant. Our eyes were larger than our stomachs. I ate two of my Tacos and a few chips and was full. I had to save the other two for my lunch today. The Tacos are authentic street Tacos with a generous serving of meat topped with onion and cilantro in your choice of a warm flour tortilla or two corn tortillas. All the meats I tried were seasoned and cooked to perfection with generous portions. The Guacamole was amazing, the only problem is once you taste it, you have a hard time stopping. On top of an absolutely incredible meal, I also received a 5% off coupon for our meals after checking in on the Yelp app. If you are looking for a filling, authentic meal at a very reasonable price, topped off with great customer service, this is where you want to come. I was amazed to find genuine, authentic Mexican cuisine in Dawsonville. This is our new favorite place for a snack or a meal. We will see you on Yelp and see you at Takoz Express. read more

Simple, authentic and delicious! Friendly service! The shredded chicken Gordita is a must try!

Takoz Express is near North Georgia Premium Outlets, and we went there for some tacos at the end of July. It's in a very tiny strip mall, and parking, which is free, is very limited. We walked into the little store, and the employee called out "Hola!" to us, and said that she'd be with us soon to take our orders, but she was getting take out orders ready for other customers who previously ordered in person or by phone. This is a little shop, and eating onsite was not allowed. In fact, there aren't any tables inside or outside to dine at. A little cluttered inside, the store was still clean. They have refrigerators in the queue/waiting area that holds cold drinks, and customers need to pay for their drinks first. The order counter has a menu with the prices of tacos based on the type of meat chosen, and a list of type of meats available. I counted eleven different types of meats, which is the most that I've ever seen. Takoz Express even sells a veggie taco. I ordered three pastor tacos with corn tortillas and R ordered three carnitas tacos with corn tortillas. We also each got a bottle of Jarritos; I got lima (lime), R got pina (pineapple). We didn't have to wait very long; the woman at the order counter was very quick (even though she was also taking orders that were called in) and the kitchen staff did a great job keeping up with her. We got into the car and I drove to the North Georgia Premium Outlets and parked in the parking lot under a tree so we could eat in the car. Each of the tacos had two corn tortillas, a wedge of lime, and, in addition to the meat in them, cilantro and onions. Each order came with a small cup of green sauce which was wonderfully spicy hot! The pastor meat had good flavor and was marinaded well. R said that his carnitas were good. Delicious, quick, inexpensive - good experience! read more

My wife and I were in the area doing some outlet shopping at North Georgia Premium Outlets, when we got super hungry and stumbled upon Takoz Express. The Parking: Free parking. The Atmosphere: Pick up only! No indoor or outdoor seating, but we were so hungry, we ate in the car in the parking lot. Lol. The Service: The young lady was very nice! The Food: I ordered the following tacos: - Steak ($2.50) - Grilled Chicken ($2.25) - Barbacoa ($2.89) - Al Pastor ($2.25) I ordered a Chorizo as well, but she didn't hear me....which was a bummer, because I wanted to try it and didn't realize it until much later into the meal. I didn't want to go back inside to order another taco, just to have to wait again. The tacos tasted very good and fresh! Lots of onions & cilantro, which is the best! Overall, the tacos were really good. If I'm ever in the area again to do some shopping, I'll definitely swing back by. read more

Was really ready to see what all the great reviews were about. Had out of town guests coming in on a Saturday. So we were ready to treat them to great authentic Mexican food. Called, and called, and called. No one answering the phone. Okay it's Saturday and about 11 am. They're probably swamped. Nope. Go down in person and stand at the counter waiting and waiting for someone, anyone, to acknowledge we were there. Finally, someone comes up from the back. Says she can make one veggie burrito but that will leave no veggies for the rest of our order. What? Only one flavor of Aqua Fresca. No tamales. It's Saturday, not even noon yet. Sadly, this doesn't make me interested in a second try. It didn't feel like they wanted the business if I'm being honest. Luckily, Dawsonville has a couple of other strong Mexican restaurants, we'll support them. read more

This place was a hole in the wall next to the outlets. The food was very authentic and delicious. The only downside is that it is to go only and no seating inside so you can't quite go shopping and sit down to eat in the establishment, But you can sit and eat in your car in the parking lot which is what we did!! read more

This is our go to local Mexican food. It's to go only and can be a wait for food but you can call it in to make it easier. I grew up in Southern California near the Mexico boarder and this is the closest to that food I have has down here in the south. They have tacos, flautus, enchiladas, burritos, quesadillas etc. awesome chips and cheese. They have the basic meats as well as more traditional such as tongue. I have never been disappointed here unless it's a Sunday and they are closed so I couldn't get my fix on. read more

Definitely a TAKE OUT place. I ordered a Chorizo Taco and was pleasantly surprised at the quality and size of it. The girl behind the counter ws friendly and courteous. It's a little challenging to find unless you know it's there, but don't give up. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE! They are so sweet and kind the food is AUTHENTIC and made with fresh ingredients.

Some of the best authentic tacos I have ever had ! Service was great ! This is a take out place, no where to sit.

A friend raved about this place, so I had to check it out for myself. I've placed to go orders from here a few times now, and am a fan. The space is tiny. There's only seating for waiting, not for dining. It's made for pick-up or to-go orders only. Although, the name has the word "express" in it, there is a 15-minute wait when you order. It's best to call ahead. I have tried the following: Guacamole (small) $3.95 Shrimp Taco $2 each Lengua Taco $2 each Asada Taco $2 each Carnitas Taco $2 each Veggie Quesadilla $5 The guacamole has chunks of avocado. You can easily tell it's fresh. Comes with pico de gallo mixed in and a side of chips. Pretty good. All tacos come with cilantro and onion. I love that they load it with fresh cilantro. They offer plenty of sides to go with the tacos, such as pico, avocado, cheese, beans, salsa. I order my tacos with their green sauce (don't recall the name), but it complements them really well. The tacos are a decent size, not big but not too small either. My only complaint is that the shrimp tacos come with extra small shrimp. They're tiny and there's not much in the taco. I would recommend order a different protein. The veggie quesadilla was pretty decent. It was cheesy and came with lots of veggies. Can't beat the prices! The staff is always friendly. I'll continue to get my tacos from here when I'm in Dawsonville. read more

Best Tacos around. Most authentic tacos around. I wish I was closer then 20 minutes away from them. Worthy of checking out.

Okay, absolutely love their guacamole. No, no...you havent tried their homemade chips with homemade guac! It is ammmaaazing! Order their homemade horchata or other freshly made fruity drink and take a sip, because you're in heaven! My favorite dish is flautas that comes with all the yummy sides of a Mexican dish! How do you find this restaurant? Its near the outlet, which is another great reason to dine, after a hard day of shopping! Lol. They are located next to "Gilstrap." If you see that logo, you are probably stopped at a 4-way intersection. Now just make a right or left turn depending on the direction that you are coming from. The place is worth every "bite" to find it! read more

I come here almost every day on my break. It has been nothing but delicious and I'm happy to eat here. Btw the fajita quesadilla is the best thing ever read more

I usually order food from here when I'm in the dawsonville area but the last time I ordered I was very disappointed with their tacos. I called an order in & pick it up within lk 10 mins, when I got to eat my tacos the tortillas were stale & cold. The tortillas ended up ripping apart lk they didn't even heat them up, so instead of tacos I ended up just eating the meat. I don't think I'll be ordering from here again, also they only give 1 small container of salsa for 3 tacos & if you ask for extra sauce they charge you for it. Very dissatisfied!!! read more

I love this place! Everything that I have had from them is extremely fresh and delicious. So far I've had the tacos the burrito and the fresh made guacamole and chips. Chips are very fresh made in house as well as everything else. I can't wait to go back and try the Chalupa's. read more

These are the best tacos I have eaten in GA. I had the Asado in a flour tortilla, and the grilled chicken in a corn (the doubled the corn tortilla and that prevented the taco from falling apart).

Do not trust the hours of this restaurant. I have tried to eat here for lunch 2 times and they have been closed. The hours on the door, plus the hours on the website states they are open Monday-Saturday 10:00-8:00. I pulled in the parking lot around 10:30 and they were still closed. Door locked and no one inside. They need to change the hours if they are not opening when they say they are. read more
