Rreal Tacos recently opened in Buckhead, the company has announced. That’s good news for a foodie like me, considering all the awesome things to do in Buckhead.
The contemporary taqueria offers a fresh, seasonal approach to traditional Mexican fare. Rreal Tacos is in the midst of some ambitious growth plans. The Buckhead location has decor that differs greatly from the other ones, including a bar top design and tile ceilings.
Now Serving in Buckhead: Rreal Tacos
I was first introduced to Rreal Tacos in 2022, when owners owners Damian Otero’s and Miguel Hernandez opened their Midtown location.
“In Atlanta if you want real, authentic Mexico City tacos, you go to Buford Highway, but it’s not a date night kind of place,” Otero said in a press release. “Conversely, if you want something upscale with great drinks, it’s a mammoth restaurant with ‘Americanized’ food. We have created a niche intersecting the two.”
In addition to a Midtown location, as well as one in West Midtown, Chamblee and Sandy Springs. Rreal Tacos are slated to open in:
- Cumming
- Buckhead (2024)
- Downtown Lawrenceville (2024)
Where Isl Rreal Tacos Located In Buckhead?
The Buckhead restaurant is housed in the space formerly occupied by Farm Burger at Tower Place, 3365 Piedmont Road. Here is a map to help you find it.
