Barely open

I'm only leaving a 3 star review b/c I'm mad they aren't open more often :-(. Seriously the best tacos in Atlanta but they are closed during day, closed on Sundays.....it's a mess. I guess when you got food that great, you can afford to…
Athens Location is Great
randybottoms from Citysearch07/09/2011 8:39 am
I read some bad reviews about Taqueria Del Sol in Atlanta, but the Athens location is great. It is located in the same spot that a service station used to be, so it retains that charm but it is fixed up very well. The service is always…
4 star food, 1 star service
Kelly N. from Judy'sBook02/28/2011 3:38 pm
I have never had worse service in Atlanta. The cashiers always have a look of contempt and are sooooo much cooler than you.I love their food. I truly do. But I would rather pick up something at Star Provisions (a few yards away) than…
Good Food except-- old discolored " fresh salsa"...
Sincerelemon from Citysearch02/19/2011 2:39 pm
We had two versions of the same salsa. One of the salsas were brown, bland, and tasted like it had been refrigerated uncovered for a week. The other salsa (which the staff claims is the exact same salsa) was bright red and tasted great..…
Poor service? Are you kidding?
DeepSthBoy from Citysearch11/22/2010 1:36 am
I'm not sure what expectations you could possibly have about "service" at TDS. You wait in line, you order your food, and the wait staff brings it. That's it! This is not a full service restaurant where you flag down waiters to refill…
Great food, poor service
RaeM972 from Citysearch11/17/2010 1:47 am
The Tacos here are really good along with the rest of the menu. It is always packed and has all kinds of people coming in there, but the one thing that makes it only get 3 stars is the service. They are not friendly, they kind of give…
Good food - not at all family friendly!
k_aswani from Citysearch08/17/2010 7:35 am
We've always enjoyed their tacos - despite their long lines. However, they are not in any fashion or form family friendly! They do give you dirty looks when you bring in a lil' one...
so so food
jbest999 from Citysearch06/30/2010 10:35 pm
The tacos are good and cheap, but the service here is cheap too. The waiter was rude and disappeared for almost half the night. We had to flag down a different person, who told us that he would look for our waiter.
service isn't good
laurencoch from Citysearch06/29/2010 2:15 am
The food is forgettable, but the customer service was not. Seriously, I wonder how this place stays open with all the bad wait staff reviews its been getting. The waiters were very slow with our orders and our refills. I understand that…
thrashy service
JPBaby from Citysearch06/29/2010 1:54 am
If I wanted thrashy service I would have just gone to some seedy dive. Save yourself the money and the aggravation
RUDE!!!
Reebug7 from Citysearch02/06/2010 12:32 pm
I had actually been a frequent guest at this restaurant since it is close to my office and very affordable. On my last visit, the gentleman at the cash register verbally berated my friend. He was extremely condescending and dismissive…
For Heaven's Sake, Why?
shadrocker from Citysearch11/17/2009 3:40 am
"Northern hospitality with Southern efficiency." This is for the Decatur location - can't seem to move it though. Anyway... Avoid this Faux-ican disaster. The only thing authentic was my disgust. We got such terrible and unjustified…
I don't get it
deevah678 from Citysearch06/16/2009 7:06 am
This is a great place for college kids who want to get a couple of cheap tacos, eat quickly, and leave the restaurant. With all the tasty and affordable Mexican food in Atlanta, I'd rather sit at a table and enjoy my food comfortably…
Good food, awful straff
MJK from Citysearch06/15/2009 4:25 am
It's a shame that a place like Taqueria Del Sol that serves good food has to employ such A-holes to work there. I never seen such a collection of rude individuals in one place like I have at the Taqueria - Howell Mill location. The head…
twice a week isn't enough
jawja from Citysearch04/10/2009 3:20 pm
get the weekly specials. always a good choice. Never had a meal I didn't like. the rudeness as some people say,is part of the atmispere. It's not really rudness it's just getting you use to the rules! once you know the rules....no problem.
Best Little Tacos!
DHSAlumni from Citysearch01/06/2009 8:27 am
My options, get there early or stand in line. Either way, the wait is well worth it. I'm addicted to the fresh salsa and the chicken tacos. YUM!!! I've been there several times and the staff has been cordial each and every time.
Great tacos!!
Nadia R from Insider Pages11/16/2008 10:23 pm
I work close to Howell Mill Location, and let me tell you this is one of my favorite lunch spots... Their tacos are phenomenal and their jalapeno cole slaw, a great side item. Please be sure to go early, because it does get crowded, LONG…
Rude Staff... Rude Manager.
Kate1685 from Citysearch11/05/2008 5:34 am
Rude staff... even the manager.... I was appalled at the way they spoke to my elderly grandmother. I used to be a regular but will NEVER eat there again. Customer Service is dead.
Great tacos, easy to get to location
Tyler M from Insider Pages10/06/2008 11:11 am
Taqueria Del Sol is a taco shop near 14th St. on Howell Mill. It's frequented by college students trying to get away from Georgia Tech and by professionals in the area. Very good tacos.
