The Best Places To Eat In Atlantic Station

"Azotea is newer to the Atlantic Station dining scene. The real appeal here is snagging a frozen margarita at their rooftop bar as cute string lights blow in the breeze. As a bonus, the upbeat Latin, EDM, and pop music blocks out the sounds of upstate shoppers arguing about where the hell IKEA is. Pair your drink with chips, creamy queso, and a salsa trio that includes a spicy, toasted pumpkin seed salsa that we’d make a return visit for. Then choose from ten solid taco options (our preference is the lightly battered Baja fish with shaved cabbage, pickled red onion, and a creamy morita mayo) that taste better when accompanied by a warm breeze." - juli horsford

The 13 Best Rooftop Bars & Restaurants In Atlanta

"If and when you want to escape the throngs of loiterers in the fake streets of Atlantic Station, hit Azotea Cantina’s rooftop. String lights, a bar on the roof serving up six different margaritas (get their classic Azotea but make it frozen), and a DJ always makes us forget we’re in Atlanta’s most popular teen hangout zone. They serve a full menu on the roof, but we usually stick to the tacos, specifically the tender carne asada or the baja fish. It’s never exactly bumping here (location might be the culprit), but we can physically and figuratively look down on the people scurrying through Atlantic Station and judge them for not making the wise choice to be on this rooftop too." - juli horsford

Azotea Cantina Review - Atlantic Station - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Azotea Cantina is one of the newest spots in Atlantic Station. But it’s quickly cemented itself as a go-to spot for margaritas and tacos in the Midtown complex. When it’s a nice day, take advantage of the string-lit rooftop bar or people-watch on the ground-level patio. A single bite of the Baja fish taco topped with shaved cabbage, pickled red onion, and a creamy morita mayo helps block out the throngs of out-of-town shoppers walking by. The other nine taco options are all solid enough (peep our taco guide for better spots) for a quick bite when you and your crew decide it’s time to refuel. But even if food isn’t in the plans, their strong margaritas paired with upbeat Latino dance and electronica music will revitalize your mood. photo credit: Tabia Lisenbee-Parker photo credit: Tabia Lisenbee-Parker photo credit: Tabia Lisenbee-Parker" - Juli Horsford

We had a great time here. The roof top is definitely a vibe. Great drinks as I recommend the frozen margaritas super delicious. I had the birria tacos not what I expected I know as it was not your traditional ones. the guacamole was pretty good and the queso. Our server was pretty cool and was very attentive. Thanks bow/boe. Oh and the bartenders down stairs were pretty cool. We went this past Sunday in the afternoon (:

I love rooftops and Azotea Cantina was the perfect place for a nice view and good food. I started with the house margarita and it was delicious. Chicken Al Carbon was everything. The rooftop was really spacious and I liked the modern decor. Our server was really nice and insightful about the menu. I also liked that they have self parking in the deck and it’s free for 2 hours.

Nice looking place the guacamole and margarita were great, I wish I could say more about the food, but once I finally placed an order for my appetizer and drink no one ever came back to take my order. Several servers walked by no one wanted to make eye contact finally waved someone down to pay for my drinks and app and leave… poor customer service, if you mark so on their internal app it states they’ve disabled submission from people In your country, I’m literally sitting in Atlantic station in Atlanta steps away from their entrance

We had a wonderful meal at Azotea. This is a unique take on Mexican food that was absolutely delicious. The cocktails, meals and even the churros were out of this world.

Had such an amazing experience here! The drinks and food were 10/10. Our server and all of the staff were also so attentive and super sweet to us. I can’t wait to come back!

Majority of what leads me to giving this place 4 stars is because of the food, which was relatively not as good in comparison to, for example, its decor, location, and vibes, which were A plus. My cousins, my partner, and I sat outside and enjoyed some good music played by the DJ and even played jenga right afterwards at a table that they had equipped the game with, which was great. In terms of food, it is slightly more expensive and sometimes the meat would be too dry, such as the carne asada tacos, which had very dry and hard beef, and the bistec alambre tacos, which relied on the queso to relieve the effects of the meat being too hard to chew. The birria tacos had dry meat as well, but of course, there was consommé to help. I ended up using the consommé for the other tacos we had ordered to help enhance the meat juiciness. The chicken tacos were great, though, along with the octopus tostadas. I also enjoyed the suadero (brisket) tacos and thought that it was a very innovative idea to add peanut-arbol chili salsa to them, and in my opinion, they worked very well. We ordered drinks as well, and plus points to the fact that we could choose what to add on the glass for our drinks, which I happily chose tajin while my cousins chose salt. Either way, the drinks had a mixture of flavors and that was what made the drinks great. Our server's name was Shaniqua and she was very courteous throughout the whole time in making our needs met, including helping us with changing our seat after our food was already out. We requested such because we sat too close to the DJ who started playing music after we had already been there and it was getting loud. Props to Shaniqua as well! Afterwards, we ended up going to the Regal theatre to watch a movie, so it was a very nice transition walking from Azotea to Regal which was very close, so this establishment's location definitely adds points to its value.

Just My Opinion

Google
My server, David, was awesome! My daughter enjoyed her kids chicken tenders. I had a mango frozen margarita that was good as well. I came on a Friday when V103 was there for Friday night live, so being outside near the live music was a plus! If you’re at Atlantic Station in Atl I would highly recommend this taco spot for drinks, various tacos and more.

Azotea Cantina is the perfect spot for bold Mexican flavors with a modern twist! The chef-driven dishes, fresh margaritas, and rooftop vibe make it a must-visit in Atlanta. I was lucky to catch a live music performance during my visit, which made the experience even more special. Great food, great atmosphere, and excellent service—I’ll definitely be back!

Had a nice selection of drinks. Got the salsa and guacamole for Apps. Both very good. They had live music and the guy added a trumpet. So good Got the shrimp tacos. This is what made the score a 5. Highly recommend. Give it a try

Food was a disaster. NOTHING was fresh. Service was acceptable and ambience was almost at par for the location. Disappointing. I am hoping and assuming our experience was an anomaly Avocado dip - 1/5 Cazuela chicken- 2/5 Taco birria - 2/5 Azotea Ensalada salad -1.5/5

Hell to the no. First and last time here. Queso dip tasted funky and was semi cold. My man's chicken tacos were cold and my fish tacos were allll breading tiny insignificant piece of fish. You should be ashamed. Pricing is outrageous for what you get.. the margaritas were ok but for that price I'm gooood. Music is obnoxious and service meh.

I tried Azotea Cantina at Atlantic Station once, and while it wasn't terrible, it didn't leave much of an impression. The food was just okay--nothing particularly memorable or worth craving again. The service matched the experience: fine but far from exceptional, which I guess is pretty much par for the course at Atlantic Station. The location is convenient if you're already in the area, but with so many other great dining options in Atlanta, I haven't felt compelled to go back. If you're nearby and looking for a casual spot, it might work, but don't go in expecting anything beyond average.

Addy provided exceptional service and the food was even better than I expected. Do not hesitate to try the fried chicken taco with the meat tossed in BBQ sauce. Met the chef who is highly personable. Also thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the rooftop.

Dropped in for a better drink than what was served at the bowling. The four of us grabbed a seat at the bar. Drinks were great. Had some various dips and Brussels sprouts. The bar tender was great ant explaining the menu and made or drop in memorable. Will swing back through again soon

The revival of Atlantic Station's central area a few years back resulted in several new businesses and Azotea was one of them. Ran by the same team of Tacos & Tequilas restaurant, Azotea is a hopping spot with lots of energy. The tacos here are fine. There is a fairly typical beer selection with a couple local brews. A nice feature of the restaurant is the upstairs patio area overlooking Atlantic Station. Service is often inconsistent, but that's also not too different than the rest of Atlantic Station businesses. Azotea is a spot that's worth stopping by for something that is not chain dining if already in the area and hunger hits.

The rooftop here is super cute in Atlantic station and there is 2 hour free parking in the garage which is a plus. Our waitress was so kind and checked in on us multiple times. That was not the issue at all, the issue was the food. We ordered salsa trio and chips $8..... if I'm paying that for salsa and chips I should be getting more than a side sauce size. Each cup was like 4 chips worth which is how many chips we received. A basket of about 12 chips. Has inflation hit so bad we can't receive a normal portion. We were going to eat here but then realized what's the point it can't be good if our appetizer was the size for a small squirrel. Change your prices or change your portions please. So disappointed

Our server (jo) was awesome. Food was fresh and tasty. I shared fish tacos. All the staff were friendly from host to server. The drinks were tasty. Probably about &50 a person if we both ordered a meal. The restaurant is really nice for a date, solo meal or group of 3-4. Nice ambiance looking into the courtyard of atlantic station.

Went on a Sunday with my boo. This is a nice spot. They offer outdoor seating with great views. When we arrived it was not too busy and we had a wonderful waitress. I have never had Birria Tacos...these were sooo good. The guacamole is fresh and the fruit salad was nice. The drinks were nice. I was able to get parking on the street and walk to the restaurant.

My husband and I decided to visit this place finally!! We are always at AS for a movie or shopping and walk past this roof top Mexican place vibing with awesome Dj. It's always a party! Do we decided to give this a shot. We got a table initially on the right and it smelled of garbage, so we decided to shift to the side facing the AS lawn where everybody chills. The server was very sweet and friendly. We got our drinks , my husband got a margarita and I got the hibiscus lemonade. I liked mine better. We also got chips and guacamole. The chips were blue corn tortillas very crispy, and the guacamole was fresh as can be. For food I got a bowl, added grilled chicken and my husband got the tacos. Honestly, I have had better. I was slightly disappointed. We loved the ambience it was lively, dj was playing perfect songs so we might just go here with friends for a drink. Food not so much.

I'm always hesitant to deduct stars when visiting on a holiday but whew. We came on Cinco de Mayo early enough that we weren't waiting in line. This was my first time at this restaurant so I wasn't sure what to expect. However, I'm sure it's simply for the holiday, but it was definitely giving lounge vibes. We sat on the rooftop and there was a DJ and free shots which made it super festive and fun. Now our service was absolutely terrible. We were seated and it took us forever to get anything done. Our waitress was completely MIA and when we did see her she was tending to other tables and not ours. There was a moment in time where we had asked for silverware to eat and sat there with our food in front of us for at least ten minutes before I finally had to go up and find her and she proceeded to go and get it. Similar situation with napkins. Literally had to babysit her for basic needs such as water, silverware, and napkins. The saving grace was the food and the vibes though. The food was pretty good. We literally devoured the guacamole. My steak tacos tasted almost like a Philly cheesesteak on a corn taco which was surprisingly really good and really flavorful. Despite the awful service, I'm chalking it up to it being a busy day. Interested in seeing the vibes of this restaurant on a random day.

Always a solid choice. I was enjoying a solo Saturday stroll around Atlantic Station. After exploring forever 21 + H&M I decided to enjoy a late lunch on the rooftop. I normally get their tostada de pulpo (delicious) but, they were out today. I got the Baja fish tacos on corn tortillas and the blackberry sage mule mock-tail. Baja Fish Tacos: Tortillas were fresh and the fish was hot out the kitchen. The cabbage and pickled red onions created a fresh bite. A solid fish taco I asked for their homemade hot sauce which was green & creamy in texture. It added a pleasant amount of heat to each tacos without ruining the balance. (WARNING) I am Jamaican so I really enjoy heat. They also offer a mild version of the homemade hot sauce. Blackberry Sage Mule: I have been participating in the 75 HARD (Smedium really) but I want to enjoy my rooftop experience and asked the bartender for this recommendation out of the three mock-tails and he instantly said this one. I have to admit it was delicious! It came it a huge glass globlet and required a quick 1-2 stirs but the FLAVOR?!? The berry! The ginger! The lime! Oooweee! I also gotta admit ordering the drink made me really feel like I was getting the bar experience. The bartender crated my drink. I would definitely order again

This food was delicious. It's one of the best veggie bowls I've ever had, and it wasn't expensive. The workers were pleasant to speak to, and continuously checked up on me. The restaurant is full of life and joy, I may have to come back here another time.

Now if you're looking for a slight vibe with a view, this is the spot for you. Upstairs requires you to be 21+, at least on a Friday night. I was interested in the patio area but it was colder than a snowman's butt cheek out there. The fish tacos were amazing. Could've used a little more sauce, but overall not bad at all.

Hmmmm this place was just not good. The drinks great! But the actual food... big pass. I got the barria tacos. And they tasted like nothing but oil. Which the bartender acknowledged. I had to add lime, salt and hot sauce to make it taste like anything. And after all that, i didn't feel like it was worth it. I was hungry tho. Bartender was sweet. He's popular so get your drinks in. But I would honestly just pass on this place. The food isn't worth it

Very friendly and helpful staff. Modern chill vibe Impressive live plants throughout restaurant. Delicious food. I tried the Baja fish tacos and the Chicken Al Carbon taco. The Baja Fish tacos were pretty good, not much spice as the dressing on top was straight mayo. I would have either used the Baja aioli on top or an avocado/cilantro/ lime mixture. Chicken Al Carbon taco was tasty as well. A bit on the sweeter side, the chicken marinade used was very sweet, also the pineapple was very sweet. Idk I might take away the sweet marinade and use a bit of that Baja aioli. The chicken was cooked nicely. They make a lovely margarita. No complaints!

Very posh taco cantina in Atlantic Station - good food, great energetic atmosphere, and awesome rooftop view. I enjoyed the fish tacos on corn tortilla- loved it! This spot is very busy and often outdoor seating has a 20-30min wait. The bar is often crowded too. Good service but seems a bit rushed it's understandable but this is why 4 and not 5 stars in addition to the limited restrooms.

Stopped in after a trip to nearby Sephora. We waited about 5 minutes for a table for two but there were also plenty of seats at the bar. I'd say this was like a 3.5 overall. The food and drinks were good, but a little pricey for the quantity. Recommend the Employees Only margarita; the Al Pastor margarita was okay but not as good. For dinner we split the pulpo tostada, steak tacos, and Alambre tacos. The tacos were small, street style sized. I would have been just as happy eating at a hole in the wall Mexican place on Buford. The manager waited on our table as the server explained that he was busy, so at least we didn't have to wait long for food or service. I may eat here again if I'm already at Atlantic Station but would not come here just for this restaurant.

Great location in Atlantic City to enjoy good food, drinks and music! We sat upstairs where it is 21+ only. Upstairs is laid out nicely. They have a covered patio and also a kitchen covered patio. Make sure you go when the weather is nice because it can get hot. I wish they had fans to help with the heat. The vibes upstairs are nice because they have a DJ that spins nice Latin music. The bartenders are GREAT at making drinks. The food also came out very quick, we never had to wait long for food or drinks.

Can you say YUM?! Came here after church & had some delicious food. Everything was seasoned well. The portions were good too. I really liked the chips. They tasted like they were made in-house & the pumpkin salsa you gotta try. We didn't get anything from the bar so can't speak on drinks. Our waiter Mike was very attentive, checking on us regularly & was pleasant. My only gripe is the seats. I love booths but these were a little tight if you sit 2 people with extra thigh meat. We didn't ask to be reseated but made it work but others may need to sit at a standalone table to be comfortable. If you like Mexican give it a try!!!

I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised at the wonderful service at this restaurant! It was my first time visiting and I came for a small girls group birthday get together. From the front desk, hostess to the fabulous server, Raeya, it was a great experience. The food was good, the drinks were hydrating, and it was a fun time being on the rooftop despite the heat. But they even had a fan to help keep everyone comfortable. It was a great time and I will be back. I truly don't think anyone can beat our server, though she was amazing, friendly, efficient, and truly enjoys her job! It was a refreshing experience because lately Customer Service and Atlanta can be a little off putting. This place check in all the boxes! They had a mushroom taco option for vegan. However, my absolute favorite was the guacamole and chips! it was incredible! Fresh and delicious! We will be back soon! P.S They celebrated the bday girl with a sparkling desert!

I stopped in after a little shopping at Atlantic Station and was able to get a seat at the bar easily. The Shrimp tacos were nicely flavored. They were served simple with green tomatillo sauce but it was very flavorful, especially with the corn tortillas. I had a rice on the side but it wasn't necessary since I got full off the 3 tacos. I didn't have a drink but the bartender Rolo was very inviting and I will definitely be back to try some margaritas. It's a casual restaurant with a big 2nd floor rooftop patio, that would be nice for people watching on a sunny day.

I've been in a rooftop state of mind. So I had to proceed, yes indeed...lol You have to be an adult to go upstairs. The main restaurant is just as chill. Upstairs sort of has three sections. Main covered, outside semi covered patio feel, and 2 bars. Lovely decor, TVs, and a cute bartender. Shhhh. Don't tell him I said that. Food was awesome. My rice bowl was great. Flavor was good. Chicken could of been a little juicier but it was still great. Nothing was overpowering. I like that they didn't pile everything on top. I was able to create my own flavor content. Would I go back? yes indeed, remember cute bartender. Oh sorry the food and drink I had was good good.

If queso is your thing, then you need to visit Azotea Cantina! Right in the center of Atlantic Station, this rooftop restaurant serves some of the best tacos you'll find in Atlanta! Only down fall is tacos don't come al a cart so you can't try multiple types of tacos at once! My favorite tacos are the carne asada & fish tacos! This is a great spot to come on any day of the week for a lunch or a casual celebration! On the weekends, they have a DJ on the rooftop & they do ID *PARKING* Atlantic Station offers the first 2 hours free in the main parking deck. I would recommend parking in the purple zone near the escalators or the red zone near the Atlanta Falcon Team Store (those stairwells are closest to the restaurant). However, the other parking zones are not far at all! Always good service and food here!

While on a long layover in Atlanta, I went to Atlantic Station to pass the time. I stopped in at Azotea Cantina so that I could get something to eat before going back to the airport. It was a better option than standing in a long queue at the airport for fast food. I had guacamole. It came with a radish for garnish. That looked a bit "gourmet" to me, but I must admit that the guacamole hit the spot. The highlight were the shrimp tacos. I can't remember if I put any salsa on the tacos. They were so blooming delicious. It was the middle of the day when I went and I opted to sit outside. The inside looked to have been bustling and busy, but it was better sitting outside thanks to good weather. If ever I am in the Atlantic Station vicinity when I pass back through Atlanta, I'll certainly make Azotea Cantina a landing spot.

I recently visited this restaurant and had the chicken tacos, which were absolutely amazing. The flavors were spot on and the chicken was perfectly cooked. I was disappointed that you couldn't mix and match the tacos. I would have loved to try 3 different tacos instead of being limited to one kind. The guacamole with pork belly was good, adding a unique twist to a classic dish. Unfortunately, the service was very slow, which dampened the experience a bit. On the bright side, the outdoor seating offers nice views, making it a pleasant place to dine when the weather is good.

Food is great, service is not so much. Asked to sit outside upstairs and the hostess seemed inconvenienced. She screamed corner going up the stairs and went off on a customer when they didn't hear her (there was loud music). Told us patio upstairs was full when we got up there and when we asked to sit outside downstairs instead then got mad and ran down the stairs. It felt like a race trying to keep up with her. We then got seated and then waited 15 min for anyone to come and talk to us or bring us to water. We got our food and then waited another 10 min for anyone to walk by so we could get silverware. Our waitress was super apologetic which was fine but one thing after another made this such an un enjoyable evening.

I think this is a pretty good addition to the Atlantic Station area. I sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly. I ordered two appetizers and both were good. The queso had a nice consistency and the shrimp cocktail was very fresh. I can't remember the name of the drink I had. I know it had Mezcal in it. It's was good and strong. The only reason I gave them a 4 is the service at the door. It took a while for the hostess to show up and because i was at the bar I saw it happen to several people. To the point a few just left. Overall I would go back. I'd love to seat on the rooftop to sip and people watch. Definitely give them a try.

On a Saturday surprised there was no wait. We sat immediately. Mimi was our server and did great at always checking on us. Place is cute and the menu is pretty good has a lot to Offer. We ordered 3 sets of tacos to share and some equites. Corn was ok. Had a lot of smoked paprika and thick on the Mayo! The ribeye taco was drenched in cheese with fries was super hard. She talked us out of the fish taco to get the birria taco which was ok. It was just braised meat nothing overly crazy. And the shrimp taco was pretty straight forward. Don't think I'd be back just because the tacos were ok we have definitely been to other options that tops it.

Meh. Was seated. The inside is UNBEARABLY loud to me so we were seated outside. Much more pleasant but more than 10 minutes before a server visited our table. She was so obviously not thrilled to be here. I ordered queso dip, but the chips were over 80% crumbs. The queso took an inordinately long amount of time to come out, so when it came out we decided to keep the visit under 90 minutes we'd better order food. Well, the entrees were decent and came out almost immediately. Notice I haven't mentioned the delivery of an appetizer plate, silverware, or napkins. Finally we were able to flag down the server and she brought back 2 paper napkins for TACOS AND QUESO--for 2 people, not apiece. Overall not worth it.

Came here for lunch. Had a few drinks and ordered chips and salsa which was decent but $8. Burrito was decent with beef and came with beans and rice for $19. Chicken carbon tacos were greasy to me and had Chunks of pineapple but very plain indeed for $14. Was not thrilled about the $85 lunch for 3 people. Service was decent and ambiance was ok as well.

Honestly, quite disappointing. The food was overpriced, small portioned, and not that good. There are so many better Mexican restaurants in Atlanta. The salsa trio was tiny, but the chips were good - not $10 good but okay. The restaurant was super busy so I would recommend reservations and it caused service to be pretty slow. Decor wise, it's a cute spot. There is a lot of potential but the food doesn't stack up.

Really and truly had a wonderful experience here last night! We came in at 9 not realizing they close at 10, but that didn't affect our food quality or service in the slightest! We sat up on the rooftop which was really nice! We had Ty as our server and she made great recommendations and helped us make modifications when they were out of certain things. We got the spicy margarita with peach and I got a mezcal margarita with blackberry, both were amazing! Ty recommended the pork belly taco and I would have never chosen that for myself, but I'm so thankful for her recommendation because it was honestly a game changer for me. The sweet chili sauce is delicious and that pork belly is so crispy and so so good! We already can't wait to come back.

We had a wonderful time at Azotea Cantina in Atlantic Station. We live in the neighborhood and have been pleasantly surprised by this place. My wife first came here with one of her girlfriends for lunch. We later returned together for dinner with friends. We've enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere. The restaurant opened in October 2021 as part of the early 2020s renovation of Atlantic Station by developer and current owner Hines. For longtime Atlantans, Azotea is pretty much the spiritual successor to Rosa Mexicano (https://bit.ly/3JoFaHX), Atlantic Station's first "upscale" Mexican restaurant and bar. As a homeowner in this mixed-use development since 2005, I've got to say Azotea has been a nice upgrade and welcome addition. Azotea is part of Atlantic Station's recently-renovated "Atlantic Green" space (formerly "Central Park"). It's in the center of the development, next to the park and splash pads. The restaurant has its own beautiful two-story building with multiple patios. It looks great. Our party of four showed up on a Saturday and checked in at the host/hostess stand at 6:31pm. I put us down on the waitlist. I received a text from Resy with our estimated wait time (30 minutes) and the ability to remove ourselves from the waitlist by texting '9' back. I received another text when our table was ready, at 7:00pm. 29 minutes later -- pretty accurate estimate. The text said our table would be held for 10 minutes. We used the wait time to explore Atlantic Station's Maker's Market (arts, crafts, etc.) so it worked out well. While the waitlist texts were from Resy, I don't think you can make a reservation for Azotea Cantina. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this restaurant is first come, first served only. This place is popular and I think it will do well in the long term. The restaurant was bustling and loud, inside and out. It had a fun, festive ambiance. The design and decor was modern and sleek. I liked it a lot. We were seated upstairs on the open-air rooftop patio, which was pretty awesome. We had a view of the green, fountains, and city skyline. The rooftop patio wasn't too crowded, which was nice. They have a separate indoor bar upstairs. Out on the rooftop patio, they had a variety of seating: regular tables, high tops, and lounge seating. There's a lower-level patio too. It faces the fountains. During our visit, Azotea's menu contained a good variety of contemporary takes on Mexican cuisine. Everything from Tostada de Pulpo (grilled Spanish octopus, $14) to chargrilled 12-ounce NY strip Carne Asada ($32). And of course, lots of tacos. The drink menu was decently extensive as well with different kinds of margaritas, cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic Mexican beverages (e.g., Topo-Chico, Mexican Coke, hibiscus limeaid; $4-6 each). Here's what I tried: Chips y Dip * Queso Fundido ($12) - broiled chihuahua cheese, crispy pork belly, grilled onions, soft corn tortillas (flour tortillas also an option); also came with blue corn totopos (chips) Veggies y Mas * Esquites ($7) - charred sweet corn, pecorino cheese, Morita mayo Los Tacos * Baja Fish (3 tacos for $14) - tempura cod, pickled red onions, shaved cabbage, Morita mayo, on fresh corn tortillas Los Fuertes * "Sancocho" Secco ($19) - slow-cooked chicken leg, arroz blanco, root vegetable stew, avocado Margaritas * Azotea Margarita on the rocks (frozen also an option) ($10) - Blanco tequila, house curacao, lime, agave * Passionate & Committed ($13) - El Jimador, jalapeno, chinola passion fruit, lime, agave Overall, I thought everything was delicious. All of the ingredients were fresh and every dish was well executed. The Queso Fundido was served in a cast iron skillet. I loved the thick, substantial chunks of pork belly in the cheese. Also, the blue corn totopos were a refreshing change from the usual tortilla chips. While not significantly different, to me, they were crunchier and had a different appetizing flavor profile and texture. The Esquites were smooth and delectable. I was impressed with the Baja Fish tacos. They were really tasty and satisfying. Crispy, big, meaty portions of fish and fresh veggies. Yum. I'd order them again. I also liked the "Sancocho" Secco. The chicken was tender and flavorful. The dish was filling and comforting. Our server was Tymeshia F. She was fantastic. She had an upbeat and friendly personality. Our host was nice too. All of our food and drink came out in a reasonable amount of time. Atlantic Station offers 2 hours free parking in their underground deck. The best and easiest place to park is on level P2 (lowest level) because P1 is much busier. You can directly access P2 via 16th St NW between Market St NW and State St NW (south side of property) as well as via 20th St (north side of property). Parking near any number of stairwells will work. For simplicity, I suggest parking near stairwells 5 and 8 (green color) near Publix and taking those up to get to Azotea.

The rooftop is a super cute vibe. My friend and I had the pork belly and chicken tacos, some guacamole, and 2 drinks each; tab came to $115 after gratuity and taxes. The manager Jesús came by to make sure everything was fine and the staff was really pleasant and professional. I'll definitely be returning.

I have always passed by this place when shopping in Atlantic Station but have never stopped in, so when my friend said they wanted to meet in Atlantic Station, I suggested Azotea Cantina! Parking at Atlantic Station is usually easy to find in the deck, and I appreciate that the first 2 hours are free! When we arrived, we were seated immediately. I loved the interior and how cool the space was. Our booth was a little small, but very cozy. My friend and I ordered some margaritas (I tried the blackberry which was super delicious and STRONG!). We split chips and salsas. I loved the diversity of the salsas' flavors and textures. I also liked the blue corn chips! For dinner, I had the Tostadas de Ahi Tuna and my friend had the bowl, the Cazuela de Vida. My tuna tostadas were so tasty!! Really simple with just a few ingredients, but I loved the poke-Mexican mix and how fresh everything was. My friend also really enjoyed her bowl. Overall, Azotea Cantina really surprised me and I would definitely recommend it!

Really loved the tacos here! The carne asada and shrimp ones were amazing. The service was great and the choice of outdoor and indoor seating was nice. We sat indoors but looked like there were plenty of heaters outside to keep you warm if you sat outside.

We were really excited about this place but we were severely disappointed tonight. We sat upstairs at the bar and there were two bar tenders. A Hispanic male and a female with long red hair. We were ignored for a lot of the time while we watched them grope each other and drink behind the bar. Not only that, when we did get drinks, the female bartender refused to put garnishes on the drinks. No rim, no fruit, nothing. When i spend $16 on a drink, I expect it to be made correctly! I know occasionally bar tenders drink while working, but not to the degree this girl was drinking IN FRONT OF CUSTOMERS!!! my bill was over 100 for 4 lazy made drinks and some chips and salsa. I will not go back. The red head bartender solidified this terrible experience and I hope this place fixes the issue because it had the workings to be something great.

I must say this is one of my favorite hotspots in Atlanta for so many reasons. Let's talk about the rooftop deck that overlooks Atlantic Station. There is outdoor seating on the rooftop along with the seats at the bar inside and outside, especially on a beautiful day. On this particular day, it was raining, so they're weren't that many people out. I decided to sit at the bar downstairs to have a whole new experience. I tried two different types of margaritas but the blackberry margarita was on point. So delicious! I also ordered the guacamole smashed with sea salt, Serrano and fresh lime. Let me not forget the crispy pork belly & cotija cheese. This item is so delicious to me, I had to order another. Thank you so much for your amazing customer service as always. The bartender's continue to hold it down daily. See you next time!

We sat at the rooftop which was had great music and a great view. Service was excellent. The queso dip was great. The suadero tacos reminded me of a beef version of carnitas. The peanut salsa on top was the star of the show! The pork ribs were cooked well, but the sauce was odd. The chipotle taste was there, but it was just not giving barbecue. The cabbage slaw was light and refreshing which was nice. I would come again :)

I went to chill on the rooftop, eat, and get a drink. The service was friendly. The food was okay. The drinks were alright--couldn't get my drink of choice because they didn't have the ingredients. The tacos were presented nicely but a bit messy. I thought the corn would be more like street corn or esquites but it was soupy. The chips and salsa (not pictured) were also okay. Not sure if I will go back since there's plenty of options at Atlantic Station.

I enjoyed this restaurant. I sat on the rooftop and the ambiance there is great. The tacos were pretty good but the Birria was a bit over salty. As most restaurants in Atlanta, it was a little pricy for three tacos that didn't come with anything else. In my opinion, they should at least include rice and/or beans. The drinks were very good.

Table to 2 for lunch I met a friend of mine at Atlantic Station, and we decided to try some Mexican food at Azotea. It is in a prime location right in the center of Atlantic Station. We entered and were seated quickly at a small side booth for two, close to the bar. Our server came by quickly and asked if we had been there before. We both advised, we had not. She gave a full rundown of the drink and food menus. She then took our drink orders, and we reviewed the food. My friend went with the Shrimp tacos, and I opted for the Pollo Frito--fried chicken tacos. The food came out extremely fast. I loved my tacos; the chicken had a good crunch, and the accompanying sauce had a little spice. My friend advised that his shrimp tacos could have used a little more seasoning, but he was going to make it work. We ended up ordering the Churros with chocolate sauce on the side. It was big enough for both of us to pick over. Overall, a very good first visit to Azotea. I will definitely come back on a warmer day to take advantage of the rooftop seating.
