The food was amazing! Counter service was quick and efficient. Margaritas were strong and not too sweet. Salsa bar was extensive. I've been craving the chicken al carbon taco since we left. No complaints.

Oh. My. God. I totally get it--those tacos are amazing! I actually came back three times during my stay in Atlanta too. You really can't go wrong here. And that queso? Hands down the best I've ever had--no contest. The ambiance is pretty casual and lively, especially with families and kids around. If you're looking for a quieter spot, I'd recommend sitting on the patio, perfect for a date night or just a chill evening. The service can be a bit slow, but honestly, it's just because they have so many customers, and it's totally worth the wait. Just plan a little extra time for your visit. Pros - Cute establishment, warm during cold nights, delicious chicken, tacos and queso. Must I say more? Cons - longer wait times, very limited parking

Really tasty carne asada tacos. They are pretty big, so you don't need more than two. Otherwise the price will add up.

Queso fries are loaded and so crispy. The diablo shrimp tacos are my favorite. My partner changes up his order all the time and reports everything is delicious. I love places with self serve sauce station, utensil and water station! Parking is not great, but there's usually plenty of seats inside or quick turnover. I love all the plants inside.

Love little Reys! This is one of my favorite casual dining places. They have their own unique touch to their restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. The smoked wings are top tier and always come out hot. In my opinion they are some of the best wings you can buy in Atlanta! I will say this location also makes them the best. For whatever reason they are more crispy at this location. The frozen margs are always strong. Also if you visit the "To Go" window you can purchase churro soft service ice cream which is so good. I used to always get the breakfast tacos but sometimes they can be hit or miss depending on the day. They also have endless amounts of different salsa and the tortilla chips are good! If i were to give any improvement areas it would be to make sure those breakfast tacos are coming out piping hot and add more meat to the tacos especially the steak. 7 bucks a taco should be stuffed!

WOW!! I've been wanting to try Little Rey for a while and this did not disappoint. I came with some friends on a Saturday morning for brunch. Parking is a little tough but luckily there's an overflow lot next door behind the Starbucks. We parked there and walked over and had a small line (about 15 min). I love a fast casual restuarant so we placed our orders, got our drinks and then sat down with our table numbers. My friend and I split a cafe de olla (iced latte + horchata) and it was SO good!! Reminded me of cinnamon toast crunch cereal milk and was just the right level of sweet. For my main, I got a chorizo breakfast taco and a chicken al carbon taco. I also split an order of the hotcakes. The tacos were SO good and definitely lived up the hype!! But my favorite actually had to be the hotcakes. Wow, these were so yummy and the syrup it came with was basically like a dulce de leche!! I loved the caramelly goodness. Overall, great experience and want to go back for lunch/dinner soon!

The vibes were great in this restaurant, it's not a typical restaurant were you have a server you order and the front and then go pick up your food, but even with that people were still checking into your table. the food was delicious and the margaritas were delicious and strong, i'm not a big spicy person and the food wasn't spicy but it was seasoned perfectly but they do have a free salsa bar if you prefer an extra kick! i will say the tacos are a little expensive but everything was delicious.

Popped in on a Sunday and had no wait - food came out super quick too! We tried several tacos and kale salad. We also got the queso with chicken....we added an order of smoked wings and those were absolutely delicious! Very sizable and cooked perfectly. They have a salsa bar with several varieties - we tried them all and weren't disappointed! There's plenty of seating inside and out - my one ding might be the music inside was really loud - it was hard to talk over especially depending on the song, but overall would definitely go again when in the area!! Great Tex mex!

Outstanding food, great drinks and the best vibe in Atlanta. Be prepared to wait in a line, but it's worth it Tried the pollo and steak carbon. The quesadilla. And the amazing ranch beans with chorizo. All excellent and the prices are outstanding. This is a must hit restaurant.
