Grab your forks and stretch those taste buds: Latin Restaurant Weeks officially launches Friday, transforming the city into a two-week celebration of Latino-owned eateries, food trucks, and culinary gems.

Atlanta’s Latin Restaurant Weeks Runs Through Nov. 21

Running through November 21, this year’s “Buen Provecho” campaign spotlights over 40 participating spots with mouthwatering specials, prix-fixe menus, and deals designed to showcase the bold, diverse flavors of Latin America right here in the ATL.

Co-founded by Karinn Andréa Chavarria and Warren Luckett, Latin Restaurant Weeks partners with the Feed the Soul Foundation to boost visibility for Latino chefs and owners—many of whom power Atlanta’s booming food scene.

From Mexican street tacos to Venezuelan arepas and Cuban pressed sandwiches, the event isn’t just about discounts; it’s a call to support local businesses that bring heritage, heart, and heat to every plate.

“Atlanta’s Latino community is exploding, and so are our flavors,” said Chavarria in a statement. “This is your chance to ditch the usual takeout and dive into authentic dishes that tell stories of family, culture, and fuego.”

Spotlight on Savory Specials

Prices vary by venue, but expect wallet-friendly steals like $10 blue-corn quesadillas, half-off entrees, and multi-course feasts under $50. Download the full menu guide at latinrestaurantweeks.com/atlanta-menus for the complete lineup.

Two West Midtown standouts stealing the show:

  • El Santo Gallo (950 W. Marietta St. NW): Chef Santiago Gomez’s taqueria brings Mexico City street vibes with handmade tortillas hot off the press. Look for trompo-spun al pastor tacos dripping with pineapple juices, crispy costras, and gringas loaded with melted cheese. Late-night hours make it perfect for post-work cravings—try the birria specials for a dipping delight.
  • Palo Santo (955 W. Marietta St. NW): Just across the street from its casual sibling, this upscale rooftop gem fuses modern Mexican with Georgia flair.Wood-fired dishes shine in specials like sashimi-inspired ceviche, agave-glazed ribs, and heirloom corn tamales. Pair with half-off Wine Wednesdays or rooftop cocktails for skyline views that scream date-night goals.

Other must-hits include Botica’s Mediterranean-Spanish twists, Birria El Gordo’s red-hot tacos, and Arepita Cafe’s cheesy Venezuelan patties.

Neighborhood guides break it down by area—Alpharetta arepas, Lilburn Cuban sandwiches, anyone?
