I have been to this location a couple times with my friends and wanted to see how a solo run would be. After today, I can confidently say I enjoy this specific location a lot! The food is pretty good and well worth the amount paid. Everything you order is filled with good portions and the cooks are very fast! Would recommend getting the Huerrache with some green salsa + white sauce (which is pictured)

Las Tortas Locas is a chain of nine fast-casual restaurants in Metro-Atlanta featuring quality Mexican food. BuHi features two in Atlanta (near Clairmont Road) and in Chamblee. It has a nice seating area and many patrons dine in. There is a great salsa/condiment bar in the center of the restaurant for people with varying taste buds, although it is mostly catered to heat seekers. Meal highlights were the Torta Mexicana and the Huracha. I am looking forward to trying more of the tortas, including the Toluqueña and Norteña and more condiments in the salsa bar.

This is a hole in the wall but the tacos (especially the Al Pastor with cheese and pineapple) are SO good! You know it’s authentic when there’s always a soccer game on the TV and they will never ask you if you want flour tortillas. I’ll often find myself making an excuse to come run an errand this way just so I can get the tacos here. The staff is friendly but pretty much only speaks Spanish. Don’t miss the condiments bar and some of the delicious incredibly spicy salsas.

Outgoing and friendly. Counter service. Sandwiches are good size. The burritos used to be larger, but are still a good size. Whichever protein you choose, it will fill the majority of your burrito. Fixings such as onions, cilantro, beans, etc. don't take up much real estate. The pastor and bistec were stuffed with meat. Fairly quick service, cooked to order. Clean place.

Delicious tacos for a great price! The truck is not there Sundays. The random people I ate with on the picnic table really just saw this searching where to eat off the highway just like me lol the owner of the truck asks for my feedback. Oh they also ask if you like watermelons and give you a some as a side dish at no extra charge.

We’ve been here a few times and always loved it! We’ve gotten the salad, a few types of burritos and, my favorite, a torta. All have been delicious and service is fast.

My 3rd time to one of their locations. Absolutely great. I've had something different every time and it was stuffed with steak or chicken , just like the big burritos they serve up in Chicago which, Until now I found none else comparable in Atlanta . Sandwiches are just as good . I'm a Las Tortas Locas fan now.

Soooo glad my friend and I stopped by. Not going to lie I was skeptical of giving this place a try because I’ve had food at two of the other locations and they were very mediocre. However, this location is DELICIOUS!! Hands down some of the best barbacoa tacos ever. The meat was so tender, juicy, and flavorful. And they weren’t skimpy either. I ended up getting a barbacoa burrito togo because it was that good. And again they PACKED it with meat. I would skip the asada/bistec tacos though. They lacked flavor and were dry imo. My friend had the al pastor tacos and she said this is the best taco she’s had since Mexico. The agua de mango was decent. They also have a good selection of salsa (green creamy salsa is my fav!!), crema, and toppings. On top of all that! They’re super affordable (in inflation terms lol) in comparison to a lot of place. 3 tacos + agua de mango was $12 bucks!! The burrito was $8!! The cashier was nice and spoke a little English. She tried her best which I appreciated. So bring your manners if you decide to visit!! All in all, I love this place!! And it’s not too far from me either. Fingers crossed they’re on Ubereats >.<. Def give them a try!!
