This was a great dinner! It is clean and well decorated. There was parking outside right in front. And we didn't have to wait at 6:30 on a Thursday. I have seen crowds here but it seems to be worth it I ordered a combination and my wife ordered a taco platter. Both were excellent. We also had the cheese dip and lots of fresh chips. Though the food was good, I have to say that the highlight of our experience was our server, Adeline, she was super friendly and helpful. Very attentive and a delight. We will be coming back to visit and ask for her specifically. This is a great place for a date or a family dinner if you get here early enough.

I just moved to Athens and went to this establishment tonight and it was absolutely amazing. Everybody was so attentive and wonderful! The food was wonderful- From the table side, guacamole to the fajitas. I had the opportunity to meet the manager, and he Very attentive and wonderful. I’m so glad that I had such a good experience and I definitely will be back! This will also be my go to restaurant on DoorDash if I can’t make it to the restaurant!

I didn't leave a review my first visit, as it was a good one but I wanted to come again to be sure since they had some bad reviews. However, this experience was still a good one. Great customer service. The server was very attentive. Everything came out in good time. Presentation was good and the taste was good. So, I am going to keep coming back. My mom loved the space. She wants to bring her friends.

These are the best tacos I’ve had in Athens. And the passion fruit mojito is incredible! Our server Beronica was friendly and did a wonderful job. The outdoor patio is just what we wanted. We will return.

Our family favorite! Always fresh and delicious. From the chips and salsa to the con Madura. We are never disappointed. Great Texas Margarita! Ask for Esmeralda. She’s great server and knowledgeable!

My go-to restaurant! SO GOOD! The Monterey salad with their homemade mango vinaigrette is my favorite. Everything has been GREAT (Cali wrap, huge burritos, tacos are great). Honestly will say their bowl wasn’t my favorite though. My whole family absolutely loves this place! The atmosphere is 10/10 and the patio is pet friendly!

This was my first visit with friends. The food was meh. One person sent hers back. One friend and I both ordered a bowl and the rice was "gummy." One friend got a margarita and she said it was awesome! However Camila provided excellent service!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such a great experience at La Parrilla! Our server, Jenny, was absolutely amazing — super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect the entire time. She checked on us often without being overbearing and had such a positive attitude that really made our meal enjoyable. The food came out fresh and fast, and Jenny’s service truly stood out. You can tell she genuinely cares about her customers. I’ll definitely be coming back and asking for her next time!

I’m absolutely obsessed with this place! The service is always excellent, everyone is so friendly and attentive. The food is incredible every single time. I highly recommend the fish tacos or the Enchiladas Del Mar, both are fantastic! I’ve been to this location multiple times and have never had a bad experience. And a special shoutout to Bertha, she’s the best bartender ever!
