Fried Chicken Taco and Memphis Taco
Erin S.

Always good. You wait in line to order at the counter. That's always the longest part. By the time you get to your table after you've ordered, the food is delivered within minutes. Very casual environment. Good for lunch and dinner, for small groups and large groups. The queso and guacamole are always delicious. I always get two tacos: the Memphis, but I sub brisket for the pork, and the Fried Chicken, but I add cheese. Their margaritas are suuuuper good. The move is to get a pitcher and share with your table! Good food for cheap!

I decided to stop in and grab a quick bite to eat while I was waiting for my tires to be fixed at the Discount Tire across the street. When I stepped inside, it was nice and cool. The noise level was OK, not too loud, not too quiet. The decor was modern, but not that attractive- more spartan. The tables are all metal (probably stainless steel), and some are higher than other with tall chairs. The seating looked comfy enough with the cushioning. There were no booths. There was a fully stocked bar, but it seems that they don't do fountain drinks- rather, they sell cans of soda (coke). They also had their own brand of lemonade at the register. It was packed with people and there was a line at the counter. The staff seemed friendly enough though. I stood in line for about 8 minutes, and during about 3 of those minutes we were just waiting on the people in front of us to make an order. However, I wasn't paying attention to their conversation and hadn't noticed that they were told they'd have to wait for a table before they could order. A rather inconsiderate lady behind me, rather than ask me, walked around me and past the people at the counter- then asked the girl at the register what the hold-up was, that she was just here for a To-Go order, and then (again, ignoring me) turned to the people in front of me and asked if it was OK that she go ahead of them and make her order. So rude. I was a little annoyed that the girl at the register hadn't considered asking any of us if we were waiting on the same thing, but I waited until she finished her order and walked away, then poked my head around the group in front of me and said, "I'm actually here for a To-Go order as well." So, she took my order and it took about 7 minutes to prepare afterwards. I don't dock any points for that- it's a little absent-minded, but it happens. If I could take 1/2 a point, that's what I would do. (Which would make my real rating a 2.5) The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't really good either. It was stuff I could make at home. The BLT taco was the best thing I had, but the bacon was SUPER salty and while it was nice and crunchy and worked with everything else, they could easily take it up a huge notch just switching to a better brand with less sodium preservatives/nitrates and then seasoning the bacon with chipotle, red pepper, onion powder, garlic, white pepper, herb mixes, bbq, or other sauces. The tomatoes were basic and so was the iceberg lettuce. Another way that they could amp up their food is by cooking their own tortillas- these were clearly premade. Although, the overall flavor was a BLT with just a hint of spiciness- so there must have been a little pepper in there somewhere. The fried chicken taco was a fried chicken strip, and while the meat was good quality, on its own, the chicken strip didn't really have anything going for it. It wasn't particularly crunchy or seasoned specially...just a bland chicken strip. Same tortilla, tomatoes, and iceberg lettuce as the other taco. The Brisket Enchilada with red chili sauce was disappointing. The "brisket" was really just pot roast beef- not bad, but not at all what I consider to be brisket and it was not smoky or fatty- just roast-beefy. The red chili sauce was actually chili. Ground beef with (poblano?) peppers and tomatoes in a tomato-based sauce with chili seasoning. Honestly, it was a step up from a canned chili- but only just barely. They had some outdoor seating where they had fans going, keeping a nice breeze under the awning, which was nice. However, they also kept the door propped open, which was letting in flies and other insects. For $15 (after tip), it wasn't bad, but it wasn't particularly good either. I probably wouldn't eat here again, but maybe something else on the menu is better? I'd be willing to give them another shot...maybe as a dine-in customer getting a cocktail or something. (The margarita on the rocks looked tasty).

Delicious Guac.

Always a good time at Taqueria Del Sol. I'm a fan of their crowd pleasers. The fish taco will rock your socks off. The fried chicken taco is always a winner. And the shrimp-corn chowder is simply a lovely way to cap off a meal. These are my go-tos, though occasionally there will be a special on the menu that catches my eye. OH! And the guacamole. I need more of that, please. Some people get bent out of shape that TDS is called a "Mexican" restaurant. They're simply upset that they can't get a #3 combo with refried beans and a churro. If that's what you want, go somewhere else. What you'll get at TDS is freshly prepared food, excellent tacos, chunky guacamole... My only complaint is that parking can sometimes be challenging, as TDS can get busy during the lunch hour. But the service is efficient, and the food is delicious. I am going back for some guac. Holler if you're coming with.

Taqueria del Sol consistently has good food and service, however be prepared to wait in line for at least 30 mins before ordering at the counter. Ordering a drink at the bar to sip on while you wait in line definitely makes the time pass quicker. While Taq is always crowded, there's somehow always a table open after you've ordered. Plenty of seating indoors or on the covered patio, which is my favorite spot. As for food, they have a great selection of tacos/enchiladas, quality queso/guac/salsas, and the new chef's special every week keeps things fun!

It was time for Bestfriend and I to go eat and he said he wanted to eat American. As I wanted to…read moretry somewhere new, I hopped on Yelp and performed a search and came across Three Buddies. Based on the reviews and pictures I saw I decided to give Three Buddies a try. Three Buddies was easy to find as it sits right on the main road. They have their own parking lot so there is ample parking so once I turned, I hopped into a park and we headed inside. Three Buddies has a simple decor as the design aesthetic is straightforward and leaves the focus on the restaurant name itself. The restaurant was very clean and had a diner style setup with ample seating. Once seated, the waitress approached us with a warm smile and cheerful greeting. She provided us with menus, took our drink order, and allowed us some time to review the menus in full. With a variation of halal items on the menu, Three Buddies had me wanting a little bit of everything. However, I decided to go with a classic approach and get the Chicken Sandwich (fried) with Onion Rings (both well done). Once our order was placed, it was back to the enjoyment of the ambiance as we engaged in our conversation. When our food arrived at the table, the visual presentation was extra enticing. The aroma was captivating and after saying grace, o was ready to eat. Chicken Sandwich: Meaty Perfectly Fried Well Seasoned Fresh Fixins Buttered Bun Crispy Outside - Moist Inside 10/10 Onion Rings: The BOMB Crunchy Tender Onion Well Seasoned Great Homemade Ranch Dip Well Seasoned Huge 10/10 Three Buddies was truly an amazing experience. This is my new hidden gem for date night. I will definitely be back again very soon. This place is low key and fitting for a good meal and relaxed environment. The price point of the food at Three Buddies is perfect as the portions are filling and the food is high quality. Good food. Good service. Good prices. It's an all around great place.

It's 2 pages but the items are eclectic. I've had wings, tacos, cheese steak, fried chicken sandwich, and tikka sandwich here. They were all good. None of it was amazing, but they were all solid. The tacos were American tacos with lots of lettuce and cheese. As far as sides go, I've had tater tots, hush puppies, onion rings, chole chickpea soup, and naan. Same thing, everything is solid but nothing really stood out. The service is good and the ambiance is pretty casual. Would I come here again? Sure. I like the food here.

Holy tacos! I stumbled across Rreal tacos when looking for places to eat in Sandy Springs and I am…read moreso glad I did. We were greeted immediately upon walking in and there were so many people I was nervous we weren't going to be able to eat there, but looks were deceiving and there were more tables in the back. We sat outside on a cool day and they had heaters going. Our server was super nice for our first time and brought fresh salsa and chips. I ordered a trio of tacos so I could try a few, the tacos were phenomenal. The meat was seasoned well and plentiful in the taco. I wanted to like the chimichurri taco more, but like some others have mentioned the meat was a bit big when trying to get a bite. We needed to leave to get to the venue and once mentioning our time crunch the server pointed us in the best direction and let us out the back door. Food was great and quick, service excellent, and I would 10/10 come back again.

Tip: make sure you check your receipt to make sure items are correct…read more Tip: dont just press the pre calculated tip buttons. Its calculated *after tax* Food was great like always. Ordered the shrimp tacos, beef barbacoa, beef birria taco, pork carnitas, beef consome, guac chips, tres leches. Our first time, ordered the taco feast and the birria pizza and it was soo much food. This is our third time and it's quickly becoming our favorite. We've already told a ton of our friends about this place!! The waiter Alex was nice and did apologize that the consome came out first; it did surprise us haha I have a gripe though; we were going to order a dessert but he told us that my birthday tres leches dessert would be on the house. When we got home, realized he charged us for it. A real shame. We tipped extra/24% because of the free dessert. We learned our lesson for being too trusting. 3/5 Update: Ariadna the assistant manager contacted me and remedied the situation by comping the dessert and appetizer. I appreciate her timeliness and her being succinct. Switched to 5/5
