Churros
Haizel A.

Fast service. Modern vibe. Could do a better job of cleaning between customers, it table was clean. I enjoyed the drinks, very refreshing on a hot day! Really happy with my salad, ingredients seemed pretty fresh, loved the flavor in the shrimp. The churros were hot and hand a good crunch! Would probably come back when I want something fresh and refreshing!

Cauliflower, chicken and beef tacos

We arrived as they opened the doors. Service was good, they treated us with smiles and showed us to our table. Place was very modern and clean. It's a Mexican Korean Asian mix of food. Definitely to try, it's a unique flavor profile. Food was good too. We ordered a bowl and some tacos. The cauliflower was amazing, chicken was good too. Beef taco had too many nerves. They did have a bar and limited liquor drinks. Definitely try it out if it's within your wheel house.

Bland chicken from can  ...
Alexander W.

Visited for lunch ... We ordered one shrimp quesadilla and a chicken quesadilla. The shrimp, my spouse enjoyed. The chicken was extremely bland and basic! - tasted like shredded chicken from a cam, with no flavor ... gross! The service was slow and took forever for drinks to be served, while they were not busy. While the location might have potential, I don't see us returning based on this experience

Ordered food on Uber Eats and there is NO WAY I got a full portion of food. I paid a total of $33 to get HALF a bowl of the All American Bowl and not many chips

All American bowl
Stacey A.

Great restaurant that we stumbled upon while charging our car. Latin-Asian mix. Very unique dishes on the menu. There were five of us so we tried out a variety of things: fried cauliflower, avocado egg rolls, calamari, fresh guacamole, Thai tacos, gringo tacos, all American bowl. Everything delicious. The service from Thomas was great. Two bathrooms with single toilets that are gender neutral. Clean. My brother said the portions were too small. I would definitely return.

Pork empanadas. The filling is delicious.
Bridget C.

The male bartender was very pleasant and knew the menu well. He game recommendations and seemed to be jovial with the staff. The atmosphere was pleasant and the place was still packed when we walked in 45 min to closing. The s'mores egg rolls we took home were a miss as the filling seemed to have escaped.

Thai Chicken Taco

Love this place. So many options for tacos and I like how you can mix and match the tacos. Their guacamole has always been great with a decent portion. Also, super tasty cocktail options.

Duty plates
Crista G.

Our first time there today. We were greeted immediately and sat in a booth. One of the first things I noticed was the table was very sticky. I wasn't really a fan of that. The food was incredible but I did also notice that the appetizer plates that came out looked dirty as well and we didn't use them at all. Hopefully it was just an off day, but I definitely would've given 5 stars if cleanliness was better.

It's counter service--you order at the register, find a seat (there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating), and they'll bring your food out. I ordered the fish taco combo, which came with two fish tacos, yuca fries, and a canned drink. The tacos were good, but I wasn't a huge fan of the menu changes. Everything is a combo now, and I was told I couldn't order the tacos by themselves. I wish they'd bring back the à la carte option because I'd rather try a few different things than be locked into one meal. The yuca fry portion was also smaller than I expected--I only got about five fries. Overall, it's still a spot I'd recommend if you're visiting Athens since it's been a local favorite for so long. I just left a little less impressed than I remember being the last time I was here.

From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place is a local favorite. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the menu offers a great selection of traditional Mexican dishes, along with a few Salvadoran influences that make it even more unique. One of the highlights of the evening was meeting the owner, Antonio Ramirez. Throughout the meal, he made his way around the restaurant, stopping at each table with a smile to ask how everything was and to make sure guests were enjoying themselves. That level of personal attention is becoming increasingly rare and speaks volumes about how much he cares about both the food and the customer experience. It's also obvious that the local college crowd has discovered this gem. There were plenty of students enjoying dinner, and it seemed like the margaritas were especially popular--particularly when Mom and Dad were picking up the tab! Fortunately, the margaritas are well worth it, with generous pours and plenty of options to choose from. The food was excellent, the portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Most importantly, the flavors felt authentic and homemade rather than the typical chain restaurant version of Mexican food.

The setup is simple: place your order, grab a seat, and enjoy. What made me laugh was that many of the "tables" are surrounded by lawn chairs. It's not what I expected, but somehow it fits the laid-back personality of the place perfectly. There are a few traditional tables available, but the lawn-chair seating adds to the charm. I ordered the "My Pleasure" biscuit, which comes with fried chicken, egg, and cheese. The chicken was flavorful, and the sandwich was very tasty overall. The chicken was a little dry when combined with the biscuit, but not enough to keep me from enjoying it. It was still a satisfying breakfast and easy to see why it's a popular menu item. If you're looking for a quick, casual, and uniquely Athens breakfast experience, Cafe Racer is worth a stop. Good food, reasonable prices, and enough personality to make the meal memorable.

But oh man, we have at least 4 meals off of this plate of nachos, so they can have my $24 anytime. This is one of the best plates of nachos I have ever had, and I eat mexican a lot if you look at my reviews. I think they make their chips as they are thicker than most, but have an amazing actual flavor, and the toppings are ABUNDANT. This was carne asada and it was absolutely delish. The bartender greeted us when we walked in, showed us where to order and to pick a seat inside or on the cute little patio. They brought the food out within 10 minutes and we chowed. Others around us had margarita buckets and pitchers of beer, so plenty of options. Someone was raving about a pickle margarita...next trip that is on my list. Super clean, very friendly, great food, and it is labeled vegetarian and gluten free on the menu for those of us who need that info. I will most definitely be back.
