La Montana Taqueria

When my brother and I moved to Atlanta from Orange County California we were dying to feel at home somehow. This place was a getaway, we went almost 5 times a week. The tortas were amazing, the tortillas that came with the tacos had great taste, and the salsas were amazing. I owe this place so much, it kept me sane for my months away from home. Coming from a Mexican with Mexican born parents I am extremely picky and this place exceeded every one of those needs. If you want Mexican food in that region I swear by this place. Not even the places off of Buford highway could touch this place and not that place people rant about in Douglas County, the place called Taqueria Jalisco, it was awful, they definitely gave San Fran a bad name. Definitely my first stop when I visit Atlanta!

If you want real Mexican food look no further. This place is legit. The tacos come in all types: Al Pastor, lengua (tongue), barbacoa and chorizo. Don’t expect chips and salsa because Mexicans don’t eat that crap. They have a tray of 4 salsas for your food that was amazing tomatio, morelia, guac and a real hot smokey sauce that was delicious. This a tienda mexicana with an amazing deli cheaper and better than any grocery store around. Don’t let the appearance and location fool you as the food is stellar. Oh yea forgot to mention they have fresh Chicharrones.
