Love this spot for fancy tacos. I usually get the southern comfort and the chop chop shrimp. Both are so unique and tasty. Freshly prepared and delicious. The chop chop shrimp has pumpkin seeds for a little crunch. The southern comfort has a fried pickles chip, goat cheese and fried chicken...comfort food! The nachos are also tasty. The chips are well seasoned and I like the buffalo chicken on top. Good spice and a little chopped celery for freshness. Their drinks are also great. I have tried the spicy margarita and the Thai basil. Both were refreshing. Our server was super friendly and helpful. I thought the service was great!

I arrived at 11:04 with my group of 19 disabled veterans. We had made reservations in advance. The waitress was not knowledgeable about the menu items and our food came out cold, even the skillets. People were receiving the wrong orders. It was simply not the best choice for our lunch.

So I have been on a search for really good nachos in this area, and Tin Lizzy’s nachos really did not disappoint. I think a lot of places make the mistake of using flimsy chips or under seasoned chips, but these chips were structurally sound and held up well, even after sitting under queso and tomatoes and all the other toppings. They were also seasoned really nicely (although maybe a bit unevenly, but that’s just the nature of chips). I topped the nachos with beyond meat (because we love the planet) and the meat itself didn’t have much flavor, but overall the other flavors made up for it. The queso was so good, and I think there was the perfect amount of queso (because I am lactose intolerant and didn’t bring any lactaid with me). I think next time I will ask for extra jalapeños, because I am obsessed with pickled jalapeños and they truly add so much to the nachos. I think these are some of the best nachos I’ve had since moving to Atlanta because they weren’t just nachos that I could make at home. Everyone else’s food also looked delicious, and the salads looked really fresh. The waitress was really nice and automatically separated our checks which was great when you’re dining with broke grad students.

Had a good experience on my visit. The food was good and the waitress was prompt and polite. Didn't have to wait long on my food also.

Sadly I have to remove my 5 star review. Not only has the service gone WAAAY downhill due to understaffing, but they just slashed half their menu. Only 4 skillets and they dropped liberally ALL my favorite tacos. They don't even have the Duo or Bacon Queso anymore. We ordered stuff off of the new menu but we're really disappointed in what's left tbh. Guess they're circling the drain just like every other restaurant in Emory Point :(

The food was delicious, the employees were friendly and attentive, they forgot a few things but other than that I enjoyed my meal and had a great time!

The positive is that they are open late. I think this is a huge plus since they are located right next to Emory's campus and they will get a lot of business from hungry students in the area looking for a late night hang out spot. Although, they have late hours, there was only one choice on the menu which consisted of chicken tacos. Now I enjoy tacos so I wasn't that disappointed but it would have been great to see a few other options. The bar is open as well. They usually have a happy hour and drink specials each week. I had the chance to try a margarita and it was decent. Not the best, but it sufficed. I think the other positive element was the hostess who later acted as my waitress as well. She was very friendly and really helped me to have a positive dining experience. Overall, good service. Open late during the week. Only recommendation is to add more items to the late night menu.
