Rey Taco ATL

Hands down the best Mexican food I've had. My entire party loved their food and have made plans fir a return visit. We ordered birria related items. Everything was seasoned nicely. The staff was polite and so helpful. My mouth is watering. Grabbing my keys and heading out to Rey Taco.

We tried this place because of a social media video saying they had amazing birria. It's in a small strip mall with limited parking, but we found a spot easily. Nothing fancy inside, but that's OK. The menu is HUGE! They have a TON of different options, but the birria is the star of 95% of them. We tried a birria bomb, tacos, quesadilla, torta, guacamole, and a small esquite (corn in a bowl). With tip, it was over $90, but we wouldn't normally try so much stuff. After about a 10/15 minute wait, we were served. The portions are massive, so come hungry. The birria was very tender and flavorful... but GREASY. Very greasy. I know that's normal with birria, but this was a lot. There's a toppings bar, which is nice. The place was kept clean, despite being pretty busy. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. You will get a lot of food for the money, just come really hungry and prepared to use an obscene amount of napkins!

Always wanted to try this place but waited until the hype was over with. The food was good and everything came out hot and fresh. Birra wasn't greasy and the meat was so tender. Its not a big restaurant but you seat yourself and take a number and they will bring it to you. Its a spot that you can go to if you're on lunch break. The food was so good that you'll be smiling the rest of your shift.

Amazing birria anything, beverages a little pricey but delicious - I had strawberry lemonade with what tasted to me like fresh strawberry puree. Best birria tacos I've had, felt the rice and beans were a tad mid. Amazing, friendly service at the counter.

This needs to be a big restaurant. The food was good and seasoned. The Machete is made with traditional CORN tortillas and actually have a homemade taste. The hot balls were so good and you can dip em without them falling apart. This is going to be my place I secretly go to and be a big back.

Freaking amazing! The Hot Cheeto Birria Bomb!!!! OMG! So sad I was in a rush! I wanted to eat more! Tambien ordene Enchiladas. La salsa es de tomatoes medium, so la Extra Spicy Sauce helped! Loved it. I'll be back!

Amazing! Shockingly good. We heard good things about this place and tried to not expect greatness but this place really delivered some delicious birria. We got the tacos, quesadilla, and the hot cheeto birria bombs. Birria all the things and the flavor was great! Passion fruit mango drink was spectacular as well. Friendly folks. Quick service. A bit pricey but large portions.

The food at this Mexican restaurant was absolutely amazing. I ordered the birria tacos, and they were incredible—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The meat was tender, the consommé was packed with flavor, and every bite was satisfying. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. I’ll definitely be back to try more dishes and highly recommend this place if you’re craving great Mexican food.

I've been here 3+ times now and it has been consistently delicious every time. * Birria ramen - Inexpensive and delicous. PACKED with flavor. * Birria flautas - Also delicious. Big, crispy, good amount of meat. * Pollo asado - Bigger portion than I expected. Lots of flavor and somehow not dry at all. * Tacos (Pollo) - Tasty, salsa a little spicier than I usually go for but I'm a wimp. * Beans and rice - Pretty solid. Beans had a great flavor. * Coconut horchata - Damn delicious. I get it every time I go now.

I love Mexican food, I finally had the chance to try this place this weekend and let's just say some of the food was amazing. . . The customer service was good nice gentleman at the counter was able to help us out. Now let's get into the food, I had a #5 which had birria beef with a side of rice, cold Mac and some refried beans which was good i give it a 6/10 . My bf ordered the #60 on the menu which consisted of shrimp which was a decent size and good amount that was over a bed of cheesy rice with bell peppers and onions which was really good,both meals came with tortilla to eat with. Last but not least we both had to get a horchata drink which was delicious as well. Now for the hype we had the ball and it didn't pass the whole hype it was not really cheesy and didn't taste like nothing like it was burnt no good 3/10. Maybe it was not fresh but it was definitely burnt i didn't take a picture of mine cause it was dry and didn't own up to pulling it apart and the cheese pulling but the one my bf had did but he still didn't like how it tasted. The place had no real decor but they have indoor seating which it was kinda small , be ready to wait cause it looks like the food is cooked based on order and be ready to spend they are kinda expensive.

So this taco spot is in Tucker and it's kind of off the beat path, a hole in the wall. But those be the best ones! This Taco spot is heavily into birria So if you need your fix, this would be a good spot for it. It's a small shot. Maybe less than 20 tables or so. There was a bar top area that you can sit at as well. Just a countertop though. Don't expect it to be a warehouse kind of situation. The parking lot is a shopping mall or a small shopping center so there is only limited space to park in as well but it's free. The service is good. If you are eating there, they will give you a number and bring it to you at the table. If you are picking it up for carry out, they will buzz you when your food is ready. Just a note, you do have to pay for every drink, because there is no drink dispenser. So if you think you are going to be drinking water for free, nope, bottles only. Birria quesa tacos - They were damn good. Came hot and still cheesy. I would definitely recommend. Birria nachos - The nachos were a lot. There wasn't as much meat on them as I thought, but they had a lot of toppings. Well they had melted and shredded cheese and guacamole and onions and cilantro along with the meat. But you definitely got way more nachos and you did anything. Birria ramen - It was basically ramen LOL. Of course you can dip your tacos in them, that's probably what it was for, but it was still good! And if you didn't want to dip the tacos you could eat it as is. Pastor taco - solid taco. You needed to put the onions and cilantro on it to set it off. Chorizo taco - also a solid taco, very salty and savory.

Alright I saw the hype on IG and came to check out for myself. I went in trying to not order the entire menu. Specious area if you wanted to dine in, this kind of food is def better the sooner you can get to it. My friend and I decided on the selections below and both slapped, it's def what you would expect from one of those home in the wall hidden gems for sure. It was a drive for me but they are def competing with another Birria spot that's super good and also a drive. I heard the hot Cheeto bombs were great!

A friend saw this pls r on TikTok and set up a day for us to all go. We went on Sunday around 6 pm and this spot is a hidden gem! It is kind of small and it gets pack quick but definitely run to check them out! The food was a perfect 100 and the service was great! We are in and the food came out pretty quickly. They have tables for all size parties, we had 5 in my party but there were parties of 2-6 in there. The birria quesadillas was amazing!!! I'm glad I got that because I had planned to get a birria taco but I wanted to try something different.

This is my first time coming to this location since it's changed to Rey taco. El Indio used to be the name of this place. When arriving I was thinking maybe they had the same menu but a different name but it was completely different. I actually preferred it when it was El Indio. We ordered the Birria quesadillas, consume is a separate charge. We asked for no cilantro but when we got home there was cilantro on it, so I didn't enjoy it as much as I could have. I would give them another try if I was on that side of town. Over all good, great customer service, and the restaurant was clean!

You order at the counter and they bring your food out. I ordered brirria tacos, beef soup, esquite, taquitos, & the hot cheeto bombs. Everything was good. They have a hot sauce station which was a plus! They have yummy juices and the menu had a wide variety and selection. Will be returning.

It's cool. A bit pricey for the "social media" food items so i'd suggest sticking with the right side of the billboard menu where they have the authentic Mexican food items. I don't blame them though. I'd overprice the social media food too since it's free advertisement and people no longer know how to eat without taking pictures of their food and posting it first. It was worth one try to me but I'm good. I'm not really looking for cancer from all that red-dye dust from the socials food. Lol

After much deliberation within myself in the line I decided to try the #1 with 2 chicken and 1 pork birria tacos with the consomé Also a regular chicken taco just because This was my second time there as I've craved it for the past 2 years since my friend brought me here. Well worth the drive, traffic and even the line. Thankfully the place seems super clean for the high traffic as well. Full of meat and cheese well cooked and just simply some of the best birria tacos I've had. Will return again and again. (Dnt forget to mention tik tok for a discount)

Hella good. I came Tuesday but brought my son back today. Great customer service. item has to made to order, I don't care if 2 customers r in there u have to wait. But the wait is worth it. The food is great and a cool atmosphere

Good establishment overall good food I will say the portion sizes have went down though so please be aware of that

Amazing food. I love the Blexican ideas on the secret menu!! Best of both worlds. The OG Mexican food is BOMB too. Thanks again.

My phone must have heard me and the wife talking about our weekend trip to Atlanta cause Rey Taco popped up on my feed. We instantly knew we had to check it out. We drove about 30 minutes from where we were staying to give it a try and honestly, it was a 13 out of 10. Our son got a kids quesadilla that also came with rice and beans. A ton of food which was not expected for a kids meal. My wife and I both got Birria tacos with ramen consome and a side of street corn. Everything was fantastic. Birria was crispy and delicious and the cheesy ramen was an absolute game changer. The street corn was delicious. Simple but traditional flavors. I need a Rey taco in Tampa cause we're going to be having withdraws. 13 out of 10. Would recommend.

There's a language barrier i asked multiple questions to make sure the lady understood what i wanted. she said okay & rang me up. i waited about 20-25 minutes to receive the wrong food then was told if i want what i actually wanted id have to pay for that to. lol its cool ill just give it to my girlfriend and get a pizza or something. waste time & money

I happened to see it on TikTok this morning and was in the area that same afternoon, so my husband and I decided to give it a try. The customer service was good. My husband had the smash burger and fries, while I had a tough time choosing from the many options. I eventually settled on the Birria Quesadilla and Birria Ramen noodles. All the food was exceptional, and I know I'll be craving the ramen. A must-try!

We've been enjoying El Indio's delicious meals for quite a while now (close to 2 yrs) and we leave smiling EVERY time. The lengua tacos are still hands down our favorite item; we never go without ordering at least one for each of us. The service is great and the people are always smiling and laughing. The "toppings" bar has an excellent assortment of all the fresh salsas, veggies, and spicy accoutrements you may want to add. Although you really don't need any of it because the food tastes amazing just as it is.

The food is so good.. very delicious.. real Mexican food. We got birria tacos and birria torta.. The service is excellent.... They offer the extra mile... Comfortable ambiance... Thanks Daniela and the rest of the team... 100% recommended.

Nice quaint taco restaurant with a vast menu. Cashier was very nice. The tacos were nicely filled and bursting with flavor.

This place has the best the best Birria in Georgia. I absolutely love coming here, personally I try to go for lunch because I heard they are usually super busy at dinner. This place is great to eat in person or to take to go, as everything is ordered at the counter. I have tried many things here, including the ramen, taquitos, Birria quesadillas, and many other items. Having moved to the area from San Diego, and being so close to Mexico, this place is one of the best places to go if you want actually good tacos. It will forever be my favorite.

This place regularly has a crowd and rightfully so. I come here for their birria and consume. The wait isn't bad either (about 10-12 minutes). I recommend for birria lovers and beginners.

I jumped on the Birria Train a year ago, and have been looking at all spots that sold it. Followed the reviews, and planned a trip to this spot after a grueling work week. I came for the Birria Ramen and was not disappointed. Honestly, the parking was tight, but I got lucky. The staff was friendly and quick. I had maybe a 10 minute wait before I got my order, giving me ample time to take note of the rest of the menu. I ordthe Birria taco and Ramen combo, and was not disappointed. Chock-full of Birria beef. I tore into the Ramen first, then used the leftover Consume for dipping, and mixed both red and green sauces in. Used every lime wedge too. I was ready for a nap afterwards. Will return, making a note of the Hot Cheeto Birria bomb to try next. Will return!

Back again to try the Birra Tacos! And of course it was delicious. We came around 8p on a Wednesday night. There was people sitting and chatting. People pulling up and placing orders. This place does stay steady w. People coming in and out. The Birra Tacos were good, I should of asked for more onions and cilantro! The soup is the perfect combination to pair w. This rainy and cold weather today!

Came for the birria quesadilla with Consome and it was delicious, full of flavor and authentic taste.

wowowowowowowowow yes get everything Igot the cheetah bomb and the machete both were very delicious omg I came here back to back 3 days in a row would go 4 must be crack in da food

This restaurant is the best . The food is amazing. The food is always prepared extremely well. The staff is very friendly and helpful . Sending super kudos to Wendy . She is so nice and helpful . Please go and check out this restaurant.. I highly recommend it! Vonnetta !!

February 20, 2024. This is my second day eating here on my lunch break and to be honest I'll probably keep eating here for my lunch break. Yesterday i had birria Ramen and wings. I'm starting to realize Mexican spots make the best wings. The service is pretty good the food doesn't take long to come out and it tastes fresh! The environment isn't anything special but please don't not judge this book by it's covers. I'm recommending all my friends to try this place.

El Indio has the best Bria Tacos that I have ever had at a restaurant. They are reasonable prices. First, you order and pay over the counter and will be given a beeper. They will beep you when your order is ready. We didn't wait long at all, maybe 10 minutes. Food comes out hot because they make it fresh when you order. There is a salsa and condiments bar. Which I really like since you can select your own type of salsa and spice level. I love onions and clinatro, and this allows me to add it to my tacos. The tacos are pretty big and delicious. The cheese is oozing while melting as you dip it into the soup. I had both the chicken and beef, and both were so good! Full of savory flavors. We even had left over tacos and soup to bring home. Their drinks are good too. My niece ordered the horchata rice drink, and it was perfect. It's not too sweet and just right. I ordered the passion fruit, and I find it very refreshing! The restaurant is nice and clean inside, and the restaurant is gender neutral. Very clean, too! Next door is a laundry mat. If you want to grab a bite while waiting for your laundry to be done, it's quite convenient. I will go again when I am in the Norcross area.

Just what I needed pre-turkey day! This neighborhood gem provided very thoughtful customer service explaining the different dishes offered. There were many to choose from including combinations, sides and ramen. Selected the quesadilla with asada (steak) and a side of arroz con frijoles for an extra .99 cents. I received a large portion that will serve nicely as leftovers. The meat was marinated well, and additional sauces were provided for different flavors Including habanero, tomatillo, and another less spicy red sauce. Sauces were perfect for this chilly day! Very happy to have discovered this neighborhood gem. Also appreciate the use on non-styrofoam take out containers, as I attempt to be as green as possible. There was also a dine in option & artwork throughout. Will definitely return again!

Everything I've had thus far has been good. The birria tacos are what brought me in initially, but I've tried a few other items as well. I'm a huge fan of their birria with ramen. The broth is so flavorful! Something was off with the beef birria taco that I had a time previously, so I hadn't been in a while. My son and I were out and he treated me to lunch here and suggested that I try the seafood quesataco. I ordered the combo that came with 3 tacos and seafood soup for dipping. The seafood quesatacos were delicious!!!!! The soup was very yummy and reminds me of a bisque. I also enjoyed a refreshing Jamaica drink. The staff here is really friendly. They can get packed around lunchtime, so be patient.

I heard about this restaurant via TikTok which helped increase the popularity of the small place. Please not parking is extremely limited because it's located in a strip mall area. Inside is mainly design as a take-out joint than a sit down spot. I got the salsa and chips which cost about 3-4 dollars. For my main entree I got the brisket birria tacos which Did not Disappoint at all. Apologies for the incorrect grammar structure but it was super good. I savored every bite and had leftovers. I can't wait to go back to try the brisket birria tacos with the rice and refried beans. The price of the entree was about 14 dollars and change. Also, I did not wait long for my food to be ready. The only thing I did not take a photo of is my food. May I reiterate it was beyond delicious. Please give this place a try!

The only bad thing about this place is that parking can be difficult because it is so busy. Very good food and nice staff. Fast and delicious

I think I DoorDashed way more than physically coming into this location lol. My job would order a lot from here. I did visit once with my bonus kid and introduced her to birria and she loved it. She always asks if we can come back (at inopportune moments of course lol). Their menu is actually really extensive. I had ordered several different types of tacos but the kiddos liked the birria and was fighting over it. ‍This location is quite large and has many tables. The parking lot is a bit more spacious but can get congested during the wrong hours due to the location (strip mall off a busy street). Give them a try and make videos for your social media!

Social distancing, and masks are required. The restaurant is clean, and nice are employees. This is my first time at this restaurant, and I'm glad we decided to eat here. Many entrees to choose from, and cold drinks as well. My husband and I decided to order here for lunch and the food was delicious. My husband ordered grilled steak, with beans and rice. He loves guacamole, so he made sure they gave him some. I ordered sautéed shrimp and steak. I didn't like the steak, so my husband ate mine. I ate the sautéed shrimp and beans and rice. I forgot to order plantains, but next time I'll make sure I order them. If we're in the neighborhood, we will stop by. I'll order beef tacos. :-)

The moment I opened my to-go box via UberEats, I knew that this food was going to be amazing. First, I took a bite of the beans and rice. The yellow rice and refried beans with white shredded cheese on top arrived hot and fresh, and were up to standard. The star dish of course was the seafood tacos with seafood soup. It is a mix of seafoods and wow is it amazing. My first dip of the taco into the soup was nothing short of heavenly. They are so flavorful and were beautifully presented. They came with limes, a small red salsa, a small green salsa, and a packet of saladitas saltine crackers. Along with my meal, I also ordered a Coca Cola, which was the bottled Mexican Coke AKA the best Coke in the world. I cannot wait to take my boyfriend here ASAP! I know he will love this!

Wow, another great experience from El Indio! I had only tried the Duluth location previously to this one, but this Tucker location did not disappoint. I ordered the Birriaquesa Tacos and a side of rice to go through GrubHub for lunch a few days ago. If you blinked you'd probably miss the turn off for this El Indio location. I nearly did, despite the fact that I take this road almost daily. It's in an unassuming strip mall with a decent size interior. I ordered take-out but they are doing dine-in currently if you prefer. The staff was super nice and everything came out promptly when I approached the counter. There didn't seem to be as much of a language barrier at this location compared to the Duluth location. If you're like me and only know minimal Spanish, then that could be a good thing to factor in. The food was awesome! It was just as good as the same meal I tried from Duluth, and the portions are very filling! The salsas that come with the tacos are also very good. If you haven't tried El Indio or Birriaquesa Tacos yet, you're missing out! I'll be back soon - just need to try the Norcross location now.

While passing ATL we looked up for birria places and apparently this was the best restaurant in the city so we have it a try! It's located 20 mins outside downtown Atlanta a road filled with Mexican restaurants. We called to see if they were opening on memorial day and they suggested to.get early since they ran out of birria pretty quick. When we got there it was around 10:30 and some options were sold out however we were able to order the option B which was two quesabirrias and one ramen for $11 dlls. They served us within 11 minutes but apparently they don't know the trend or they want to save some bc our ramen was only ramen, no meat. Let's remember that this thing was on demand since they added birria (meat) and the stock to the ramen cup. Anyway I asked for it and the kind cashier provided me with some. Taste wise it was good, not heavy after finishing it but I believe the stew is missing guajillo and puya since it was not spicy and it was more like a beef stew than birria. The quesabirrias were good size and not falling apart but another missing thing was the traditional black sauce that birria needs for that unique taste. I'd recommend this place but they need to change some things, still the best place is birrieria Gomez in Los Angeles.

Came to try some Birria tacos, they were amazing along with the birria ramen! It was the best I've had so far in metro Atlanta, full of flavor, didn't skimp on the meat. Ramen is heavenly! These are a must try! The parking lot is extremely small.

Birria ramen was my fav! Great flavor and comforting. The birria bomb was so bomb! And the burritos are huge

So this place is soooo good. But during peak hours like lunch or dinner time expect a wait. Either you will be in a long line or you will have to sit and wait with a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready. I've been here twice now and the food didn't disappoint. The first time I got the Birria flautas with consume, really good. The flautas were super crispy and pretty greasy but still good nonetheless. However the second time I came I got the seafood tacos with the dipping soup and LAWWWWD if you like seafood you'll love these. They were so flavorful and delicious. However you may need a second order because I was not completely full after eating them. I would definitely come back for these anytime.

Food was okay, not bad but not what I expected. Quesadillas was the best, the places was packed so that tells you something.

First birria taco spot I tried in ATL and was not disappointed. To start, however, the parking in this plaza is a little tight, with limited spaces in the front/side area. Fortunately, I've been able to get a spot each evening or afternoon I come to get tacos. When ordering, you are able to pay with cash or card. I recommend getting the "A" or "B" order which is A- 3 birria tacos with consume (sauce) or B-2 birria tacos with ramen consume. These tacos are pretty heavy, layered on with a good amount of beef, cheese, sauced up in that consume. I can usually finish 3 tacos no problem, but it's definitely satisfying and good time for a nap afterwards. My girlfriend enjoys the birria tacos with the consume ramen-- it's your normal cup ramen with consume as the flavoring, honestly really good if you give it a chance. If you're craving eating some noodles too, it's a good start. Careful when you first bite into these, it's usually pretty hot. They do take about 10-15 minutes to cook, so have to be patient when they are busy. Excellent cheese pulls.

Taco Magic is all I can think of when thinking of this place. We seen them on Facebook and had to try them, they are pork or maybe even beef tacos with dipping gravy. The taco shells are doubled and seem to be deep fried. -yum. The pork/beef is lightly seasoned but they put so much inside the taco along with some type of thick cheese. I mean its just that simple..... but Sooooo yummy! We dined in but could not finish and could not afford another beverage-lol. They don't have a fountain machine, and the real glass bottled soda's are $2 (coke only). The restaurant was extremely clean, no one speaks english, but this is combo #1 and its $11.50 and worth every penny.

I had the birria tacos and they were hot. I found the the sauce to not be flavorful nor the meat. Both needed more seasoning. I think I had my thoughts set on something more. The Jamaica drink was good and service was friendly.

Alright if you're reading this you've probably run across their really good FB advertising campaign, let me say that it did it's job and it's worth while to get up here. Birriaquesa tacos Maruchan was the dish of choice because well, like you I had never heard of e'm, they looked tasty as it gets, and I had to try it. Let me say that it was as tasty as it gets and I'm glad that I did try it! The Birria tacos are easy to order - Combo 1 which is 3 tacos and consome. Or Combo 2 which is 2 tacos and maruchan noodles done consome style. I went with the number 2 cause noodles were required. These tacos were GOOD. Meat was tasty and plentiful, there was even more meat in the noodles. Dip the tacos in the noodle juice and enjoy, simple as it gets really and you'll sit there with your eyes closed wondering why the heck California had these all this time and didn't let us on the East side know till now. They've got an extensive menu - Covid style everyone's wearing masks and gloves and being safe. This is a nice spot and I recommend it for your taco fix for sure.

I was hesitant to drive 22 minutes for some tacos when there are several mexican restaurants closer to me. However, with the reviews on this place I had to give it a try. Boy was it worth it!! I arrived at 11:30 on a Saturday and there was no line. I waited maybe 10-12 minutes for my food. The tacos were sooooo delicious!!!! The meat was juicy & tender and the taco shells had the perfect crunch. The consume was super flavorful and added that extra something special. I highly recommend it here!!

My friend told me about how amazing the Birria queso tacos were so of course I had to try them! The beef was cooked to perfection and there was this amazing broth you could dip the tacos in. I've never had tacos like this before and it was a complete game changer! If it were for the food alone I would have given them 5 stars but unfortunately getting the order placed took almost ten minutes. Pro tip: Bring cash! There is a card and cash line and that night the card line was very long.

Hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I been to. Its as authentic as it comes. Its tasteful and full a flavor, each bite takes you away. I love their birria tacos, they are crispy yet tender, full of meat because they don't play with their meats. This places is a hidden treasure, they deserve more recognition! their sauces are fresh. Let me just say that you defineatly get a bang for your bucks!!! Their prices are amazing!!! On my way as we speak !

Birria's such a buzzword for 2023, and with good reason! We chose El Indio in Tucker, Georgia to conquer our first bites of Birria. Served with a side of ramen, consummate broth, and decadently layered Birria, every bite was juicy and cheesy in the best way possible. It's always authentic taquerias that impress me the most. Coming back for more as a New Year's Resolution!

Found them on TikTok and their birria tacos are amazing. They definitely lived up to the hype and I will be back. I have to come back and try their ramen. I would recommend to place your order a head of time if you don't like to wait more then 10-15 mins. I ordered the Seafood tacos (3) and seafood soup which is in a nice size cup for about $14. It was so fresh and delicious. I love how flavorful the soup was and when you dip the tacos in the bowl just adds something to it . Everything is made fresh so your order will take about 15-25 mins depending on how business they are. Their located in a small plaza so parking is very limited but no one is usually parked in a spot that long.
