Rreal Tacos To Expand Across Metro Atlanta

In addition to Rreal Tacos’ locations at Midtown at 100 6th St. NE and West Midtown at 1000 Northside Dr. NW, the eatery recently announced that it will open in the following metro Atlanta locations:

  • Chamblee
  • Sandy Springs
  • Buckhead
  • Decatur
  • Gwinnett County

“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,” Damian Otero, who co-owns Real Tacos with Miguel Hernandez, says in a news 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.”

The owners have leaned into making authentic Mexican street food with Rreal Tacos, sourcing their taco ingredients from various regions of Mexico using fresh — never frozen — meat marinated for over 12 hours for dishes such as asada from northeastern Monterrey, birria barbacoa from Guadalajara, or taco al pastor, one of Mexico City’s signature tacos.
