    Pastor tacos
    Michelle K.

    I liked the food. I got two pastors and two asadas. Of course I had to get a horchata. I was in town for work. I wish I got the special (better deal price wise). The service was decent and from how hot the food was everything is made fresh. I love that the tortillas seem to be made from scratch (not the typical tortilla shape). This is definitely a spot you go to for lunch or after drinking lol. Seemed pretty laid back. I'd come back to try the birria for sure! Oh and I loooove that they give verde salsa (and rojo) and limes (radish too)!

    Birria Tacos w/ sauce

    Have you heard the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover"? Well this little gem is a tremendous place. I odered the birria taco and pineapple smoothie. It's definitely a good grab and go spot. It's drive and walk up. Be careful their street entrance isn't the best and liable to damage your vehicle, just fyi.

    I had high hopes for this place. The service was excellent and the overall cleanliness from what I could see it looked great. I ordered 3 Asada tacos and an Asada burrito. The meat was chopped very finely and had a mushy texture. The meat inside of the burrito also had fat attached that I could not chew through. It was wrapped in white paper that got soggy and got stuck to the tortilla. They also cut the burrito in half which I thought was weird for it being so small. I also ordered a corn that tasted old and mushy.

    Birria Taco , Elote

    Came here for a quick lunch break bite. Bit my elote and taco right away as seen in the photo The wait was a little lengthy in the drive thru which is why I didn't rate higher. The elote had a little kick to it, not too hot. It was nice. The taco was seasoned well and had a little crisp to it so that when it's dipped in the consome, it doesn't fall to pieces, and it didn't. I will be back during a different time of the day to give another try since it was around lunch time

    Torta de milanesa
    Mr M.

    I was visiting Atlanta and I needed a place to eat a torta. Well, I came across Taqueria Palafox and I was very disappointed in the torta. The meat in the torta was really thin and overwhelmingly salty not to mention the added hair in it. The bread was stale and the ingredients bland as well. I couldn't even finish the torta. Sad to say, the beans and rice were the highlight of my visit here. The staff, or cashier I should say, was very nice though. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

    Tacos: asada & pastor

    New Mexican spot in Forest Park! This place has the convenience of ordering drive thru. You still have to wait for your order, but you don't have to get out the car. There are a variety of options. I ordered asada and pastor tacos, as well as a pastor torta. There was nothing too special about the meat for the tacos. The steak was a bit chewy and the pastor tastes very common to other pastor tacos in the area. I do appreciate that the tortillas are freshly made! The torta tastes better and the aguas are yummy. I'm here to support another small business and appreciate their effort! I will come back to give it another try

    Food has zero flavor, no matter what I get it's absolutely no seasoning or flavor. This service is always good and they are very friendly.

    This place is a hidden gem in my opinion. Solid fresh tacos, great price, and a drive through

The reviews were decent so I figured why not give it a try. It's attached to a gas station which gave me pause but I decided to try it anyhow. When we walked in, it immediately smelled like cigarette smoke. In any other instance I would've turned around but I was so hungry and there was actually a lot of foot traffic so I proceeded. The spot itself was crowded with boxes everywhere and it felt super grungy but I knew what I was getting myself into. Ordering and getting my tacos was pretty easy - made to order but came out quick. I settled on some chicken tacos. Once I got home I was slightly disappointed. The chicken really didn't have any seasoning and flavor. Once I added my hot sauces it was good but I just wanted a little more flavor to work with. As crazy as it sounds, I would try the birria if I was ever in the area, it seemed to be literally what everyone else was ordering. Overall wouldn't necessarily recommend but it wasn't terrible.

    3 stars for the food and cleanliness of the establishment 1…read morestar for the haphazard customer service I've been in GA 5 years and this Mexican place was SEASONED AND REALLY DAM. GOOD. Like you could smell good food cooking. I've tried Pollo Asados at a few places and they just didn't have the grilled chicken flavor, and they didn't have onions or jalapeños, all fails. El Arroyo was authentic, the grilled chicken was giving exactly that grilled TODAY. Seasoned, grilled and appropriately charred, onions and jalapeños tender. Oh AND FRESH. The beef tacos were very seasoned and NOT DRY. OH, almost forgot the 2nd best part... their beans and rice is made with vegetable oil not lard, I didn't try the beans cause I didn't want to risk it but I did taste a spoon on rice and it was seasoned and flavorful too. My sister who doesn't eat pork either did have the beans and she hasn't said anything about feeling any kind of way but she did say they were good. 1 star I understand you want to make sure I know what I'm ordering, trust me I do. It becomes combative after awhile. I've been eating authentic Mexican food all my life. With that... I can't wait to try more items from the menu.

It was busy during the early afternoon with many call in orders and locals stopping in for lunch. I recommend calling your order in, unless your dining there. I just ordered a chicken sope, which did not disappoint. It was hot, fresh and a nice portion for $4. Chicken was seasoned well and was layered with lettuce, sour cream, cheese, tomatoes, and pinto beans! Honestly I could've eaten 2! They do lots of affordable family size meals with whole chickens that seems really popular as well. That's next on my list of things to try out!
