Best

Matador has great prices, drink specials, and a friendly neighborhood vibe (Oakhurst). I live in the neighborhood, and love the fact that there's a spot where I can get a margarit...

Worst

The management of this place is TERRIBLE, the poor guy looked like he had no idea what was going on, he certainly was not in control and it showed in the service which was horribl...

Authentic Mexican Food - Fantastic Location/People/Service 5/3/2007

Set in the heart of this fabulous part of town - I stumbled upon this little gem. The best tasting mexican food I've had yet in Atlanta. The prices are super affordable. The guac was amazing - my date and I had two servings of the stuff. The service was right on - and on top of that - the staff is hot and super friendly. I am definitely going back to this joint. The crowd was a cool mixed crowd - low key and not haughty taughty. Definitely Best In Atlanta for Mexican Food !!!!! Pros: Everything is amazing here ... Cons: Parking - but where is parking not a con more

yummy to my tummy 10/19/2006

This place is awesome! I started off the night with a House Margarita and cheese dip...both of which were amazing. I ordered the Carnitas, and my date had the Carne Asada Tacos...There was not a drop of food left on the plates! The service was great, and the owners are hot (definitely a bonus)! I highly recommend trying this one out! It is now my new hangout for Monday Night Football because they have $1 Dos XX on draft and fantastic wings, as well as great TV's for your viewing pleasure! Thank god these guys moved into the neighborhood!! What did Oakhurst do without them?? Pros: Food, Atmosphere, Specials more

Awsome Cheese Dip 10/3/2006

OK, I do not normally right reviews but I thought I should share. Went up for $1 Draft Monday night nice big TV $1 Dos XX Amber on Draft not much more I could ask for. Went in expecting regular combo Mexican which they did have. My friend had a combo, said it was good, we had cheese dip, the best I've had. I had The Carnitas, they were great. Very comfortable atmosphere. The owners even came up and asked how everything was. I would definately recommend it to anyone. Pros: food, service, price Cons: not closer to my house more

Great Mexican! 9/6/2006

I was shocked when I saw a negative review for the Matador. I would have to disagree on several comments. I have never had to wait more than a minute to have chips & salsa brought to my table & my drink order taken. And I would also like to note that they don't even have ""taquitos."" Try a peach margarita... a taste of Mexico meets Georgia! And the enchilada suizas were incredible... highly recommended. AND do not leave with out tasting some churros for dessert. more

Nothing special, lacks in lots of areas 8/7/2006

I stopped in to the Matador because the Oakhurst Grill next door was closed; the ""maragarita special"" caught my eye. A mistake from the beginning--the restaurant was not understaffed, yet it took at least 15 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us or even bring water. They eventually brought us queso dip (tasted like velveeta) and comped it for us. Ordered maragaritas, which tasted like sugary mix and no tequila. The entrees were nothing to write home about, in fact Taco Bell would have been preferable to the rubbery, gristly pork in the taquitos and the questionable shrimp in the fajitas. Pros: Location, outdoor dining Cons: Margaritas, service, price more
