Beautiful restaurant with good customer service and nice vibes. They have both great indoor and outdoor seating. The wait staff was good and attentive. The food just fell flat for us. Everything was good but nothing stood out as amazing, the same with the drinks.

Wow! Came from Charleston, SC and ate here for dinner. Service, menu, prices, drinks….. I couldn’t ask for better. Quesobarria was great! Tried a lenguna taco excellent if your adventurous! Queso with charizo was on point. Best chilada I’ve ever had. I can’t make a single recommendation. Flawless experience!

The food was very tasteful and worthy of being considered brunch. The pancakes were very delicate and smooth tasting. The taco was also just good. The space is very compact but comforting with TV screens and a full bar. Go check them out it’s worth De Price!

To be honest, I found the food and drinks here so far to be quite average. Nothing terrible – nothing to knock your socks off. That is, with one exception: the flan was probably the best I’ve had in the US. Seriously. Not since Mexico City have I had better flan.
As for the other food, I only had a quesadilla and sangria, so I would give it 3.5-4 stars for now and will wait until I try more food. I will, however, give a shout out to the amazing staff. The bartender, servers, and runners were all fantastic and friendly. That alone would get me to return!

Got the torta with carnitas. Wish the carnitas had a little more flavor but it was tender and the bread was amazing. Add some green sauce and this is easily the best torta I’ve had in Atlanta so far.

La Santa Tacos & Bar is easily one of the best Mexican spots I’ve been to in Atlanta. I ordered the carnitas tacos, and they were packed with flavor—definitely recommend them. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the entire vibe of the place made for a great night out.
What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. Diego was our waiter, and he was absolutely exceptional. He didn’t wait for us to ask for anything—he just brought everything we might need ahead of time: sauces, napkins, extra limes, you name it. It’s rare to get that kind of attentive and thoughtful service, and it honestly made the whole meal feel even more enjoyable.
Food, service, and atmosphere all get a 10/10 from me. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this spot to friends.

The food at La Santa is so good. I got shrimp nachos and my friend got the fiesta bowl. The portions are great and the food is delicious. My server Juan was very attentive and gave great customer service!! Definitely ask for him if you go.

This is a nice taco spot on the corner of busy Midtown. Our waiter was really nice. I didn’t catch her name, but she’s the waiter from Cartagena, Colombia.
We started off with the chips and dips. The queso was my favorite! Then we had the chicken soup, which was flavorful and satisfying. We got a pitcher of the passion fruit cocktail which was yummy. We sat outside, so of course a bug flew into his glass. Our waiter kindly gave us a free cocktail of the same flavor as a replacement. Lastly, we had the beef and pollo tacos. I had the mild sauce to squeeze on top. The tacos were decent, but I’ve had better tacos elsewhere.
Would I return? Yes! I’d come back. The ambience and décor indoor and on the patio was beautiful and inviting.

It was very difficult to have a convo, very loud. Carnitas tacos were dry but the cacti taco was very good and the sangria was excellent. The sopa pollo was outstanding. Service was 3 different servers and still slow unresponsive.

This is one of my new favorite spots and I really want to gatekeep it because I’d love to be able to keep walking in for a table with no wait, but I’m invested in their success…the food is great, specifically love the torta and campechano taco. The drinks are awesome, we’ve been ordering the mezcal cocktails and they’re all excellent. The vibes are great and the place is so photogenic it almost kept us from trying it in the first place, thinking it was gonna be overhyped and expensive. But the food prices are very reasonable for midtown and they have all the quality to back it up. The staff are so friendly and attentive, and seem like they’re genuinely having a good time at work. Overall 10/10, highly recommend.
