Family-owned in Buckhead since 1978

Simply good Tex-Mex — and the best salsa in town.

Forty-seven years in the same Peachtree Battle strip mall. Fresh-fried hard-shell tacos, cheese dip people drive across town for, and a wall of plaques from the regulars who made it home.

The one to order

The hard-shell taco Atlanta named best.

Crispy corn tortilla, fresh-fried to order, seasoned beef or chicken, lettuce and cheese. Atlanta Magazine put it on the “50 Best Tacos” list — and at $8.50 it’s still the easiest yes in Buckhead.

Since 1978
Our story

A restaurant the neighborhood made its own.

In 1978, the Coronado family opened one small Tex-Mex spot in a Buckhead strip mall. Forty-seven years later it’s still family-run, still in Peachtree Battle, and still famous for the same fresh-fried tacos.

Somewhere along the way, regulars started bringing in engraved plaques — for birthdays, graduations, and the people they’d lost — and the family put every one of them on the booths. The walls turned into a neighborhood’s shared memory. That’s the part you can’t fake, and it’s the part worth putting first.

This place is a long-time institution. I contend their salsa is one of the very best in all of Atlanta. Great flavor, good heat, very balanced. You can’t stop eating it.
