El Azteca is a great casual Mexican spot in Buckhead, a rare gem in the area. The restaurant is spacious with tons of seating, a large outdoor patio, and plenty of TVs, making it a perfect place for a large group.We were seated immediately, and our server was on it. He was quick, efficient, and very attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and refilling our drinks promptly.We started with the bean and queso dip and each ordered burritos. The portion sizes were perfect - no need for to-go boxes as we licked our plates clean!If you're looking for a casual Mexican spot, you've found it at El Azteca.

This use to be a favorite spot, but the employees who made the experience have left. The female bartenders are on their phones A LOT, and unfortunately don't do many tricks when making drinks (like the other bartenders did). The food is always delicious and drinks are strong, but do wish the employees interacted with the guests more at the bar... It's a part of the experience (or at least it was). Put the phones away, and maybe play a more classical variety of music overhead; not just the chick music or teeny-bopper music. Again, food and drinks are always delicious; 4/5, because the atmosphere needs some work.

It's great place to grab drinks with friends and family and enjoy the complimentary chips & salsa. Food overall is decent, it's pretty basic, staple food you can find at most other similar places. Love the place for its convenience, great service, and affordability. If your looking for an affordable, simple, & fun place than definitely swing by & check it out if in the area.

El Azteca!! This IS the original El Azteca that we all know and love. They have been around Atlanta for over 35 years that I can recall. My first experience was in Buckhead at the little old building on Roswell Rd. During the fun days of Buckhead we hit the Piedmont Rd location every weekend. Now 35 years later I found the Midtown location to be just as good or better than my memory serves. Midtown location is easy access from the expressway. Service is always good and the food is consistent, hot and delicious. If you're craving Mexican in Midtown this is your spot! Parking : Free parking behind the building.

Ridiculously expensive! A burrito is $23! A family of 4 eats for $120+ (and that's without any alcoholic drinks). Poor quality food as well. Could have enjoyed a very nice meal for 4 at a much better quality restaurant for far less.

El Azteca is such a gem of a Mexican restaurant in Buckhead. They have a great food menu and a great drink menu as well. The menus for both have so many options, so you are bound to find something you love to eat and drink as well. I come here quite often with some friends after work as well as coming on the weekends too. They have a large outdoor seating area as well as your pretty standard indoor seating. They have booths and tables as well as bar seating inside the restaurant. I always get the chicken fajitas to eat when I come here. It's a huge sizzling plate, and comes with so much. I always end up eating the whole thing because it's just that good.Highly recommend El Azteca when you're in the mood for some laid-back Mexican food with some friends or even by yourself, you won't be disappointed.

The food is always amazing and so delicious. This restaurant is very clean, colorful, and beautiful. The service can be a little better. When I enter the restaurant, no one greeted me. I waited at the hostess for a few minutes and then decided to just sit at the bar to place my to go order.

El Azteca Mexican Restaurant on Peachtree is an absolute gem! From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with the tantalizing aroma of authentic Mexican cuisine and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The vibrant decor sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.The menu is a culinary masterpiece, boasting an array of mouthwatering dishes that cater to every palate. From traditional favorites like sizzling fajitas and savory enchiladas to inventive chef specials bursting with flavor, there's something for everyone to savor. And let's not forget the drinks! Their margaritas are awesome - perfectly balanced and refreshing, they're the ideal accompaniment to any meal.

Keep coming back to this place! They have one of my favorite frozen strawberry margaritas in the city of Atlanta. They have a small free parking lot in the back, and if that is full you can park next door and they validate your ticket for 2 hours. The free chips and salsa are delicious. I always get tacos! You can either order one flavor, comes with 3 tacos and a side of rice and beans, or order individual tacos al la carte which I prefer! They have a great outdoor patio for when the weather is nice, but also will seat people out there in the winter with heaters! Place is packed on a Friday night

Cheese dip is good. Good variety of margaritas. Ground beef tacos are not good. Taxco is a better spot
