"There’s almost always a line at Taco Pete, a solid, walk-up taco spot with L.A. origins. It sits on a funky stretch of Main Street, just a few blocks from downtown East Point. People rightfully come here for the beef and chicken tacos, packed with juicy, very well seasoned meat. The spicy chicken burrito, filled with refried beans and tender chicken, are just as satisfying. Be ready for a bit of a wait, but with a few stools outside, there’s space to sit and take in busy Main Street while you do. Food Rundown Hamburger Their burgers, especially the turkey burger, come with a rich, savory flavor that hits with every bite. Wings Aside from the tacos, the wings are the reason to drop by this spot. They’re small, crispy, and generously coated in seasoning (the lemon pepper and BBQ are standouts). Tacos The tacos are about the size of your phone and come loaded with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cilantro, slightly spicy original taco sauce, and cheese. The meat is very well-seasoned." - Jacinta Howard
"The original Taco Pete was founded in Los Angeles in 1966. This corner-situated taco stand in East Point is its second location. Walk up to order tacos here, but Taco Pete’s wings are easily some of the best in East Point." - Beth McKibben
"The original Taco Pete was founded in Los Angeles in 1966. This corner-situated taco stand in East Point is its second location. Walk up to order tacos here, but Taco Pete’s wings are easily some of the best in East Point. Make sure to order some of Taco Pete’s loaded chili cheese fries, too. The owners recently opened Taco Pete Bistro on Central Avenue in Hapeville." - Eater Staff
"The original Taco Pete was founded in Los Angeles in 1966. This corner-situated taco stand in East Point is its second location. Call ahead to order tacos to be ready upon arrival – an order generally takes about 15 minutes, but the flavor and prices are worth the wait. While the name promotes the tacos, Taco Pete’s wings are easily East Point’s best. They come in hot, mild, honey bbq, or lemon pepper and rival Atlanta’s most popular wings when they’re fresh from the fryer. The owners recently opened a Central Avenue bar in Hapeville called Taco Pete Bistro, which has an intimate dive feel and is expected to offer dine-in service soon after serving customers exclusively via takeout and delivery throughout the pandemic. Call for takeout. Masks required." - Mike Jordan
"One of the best taco spots in the Tri-Cities/Airport District." - Beth McKibben
