Why everyone keeps coming back.
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Atlanta at 661 Auburn Ave NE, Guac y Margys brings an irresistible flair to the taco restaurant scene, serving up authentic Mexican flavors with an energizing twist. This spot is a true haven for lovers of bold, fresh, and inventive Mexican cuisine, where each dish bursts with life and carefully crafted flavors.
At Guac y Margys, the menu shines with standout offerings like the indulgent Chicken Nachos, featuring seasoned white corn tortilla chips generously layered with house-made queso, smoky chipotle chicken, vibrant fresh pico de gallo, and creamy guacamole. Equally tempting are the Beef Nachos, crowned with perfectly seasoned ground beef, and the tender Pork Nachos, boasting Coca-Cola braised BBQ pork that delivers a succulent, slightly sweet depth of flavor. These nachos transcend the ordinary to become a festival of textures and tastes in every bite.
For those seeking a more bowl-centric indulgence, the Chicken Bowl offers oven-roasted chipotle chicken nestled atop a bed of sazon rice and traditional Mexican black beans, warmed with sautéed peppers, onions, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. The Ground Beef Bowl balances seasoned beef with zesty lime crema and melted Monterey Jack cheese, accompanied by fresh pico and crisp romaine, creating a satisfying harmony of fresh and hearty elements.
And let’s not overlook the playful yet delicious Foldies, Guac y Margys’ signature take on quesadillas that reverse the traditional order—Monterey Jack cheese grilled to golden perfection is first laid down, followed by a warm flour tortilla, more cheese, fresh pico de gallo, cilantro, and chipotle chicken, all finished with a side of luscious house-made lime crema. The Chicken Foldie and Beef Foldie both invite you to indulge in crispy, cheesy goodness with every savory bite.
Beyond the food, what truly elevates Guac y Margys is its vibrant ambiance and warm, engaging service. Guests repeatedly laud the incredible staff, naming individuals like Kay the bartender and Adam for their attentive and friendly hospitality that makes every visit feel personal and memorable. Whether you’re stopping by after a stroll on the BeltLine or looking for a lively spot to unwind, the atmosphere pulses with upbeat energy without sacrificing comfort or charm.
Drink lovers will find themselves entranced by the expertly crafted margaritas—fresh, strong, and innovative. While the double margarita might come with a slightly higher price tag, many patrons agree it is worth every sip, with flavors so fresh and balanced they perfectly complement any of the delicious food choices. Signature drinks like the classic frozen margarita and exotic fruit options such as mango and passion fruit add a refreshing balance, perfect for relaxing and socializing.
