User Reviews of el Norteno Mexican Restaurant

Yelp.com Review - by Katherine D.

4.0 of 5 stars. Delicious and so cheap. Go for the whole chicken meal or the pork carnitas tacos. And don't forget the salsa bar--as if you could. The green salsa is insane good. This is a dingy hole in the wall. It...

Yelp.com Review - by Heather N.

2.0 of 5 stars. ewww...no. I had high hopes by the grilled smoke wafting from the parking lot. The place where you order is right near the pickup window for waitresses, so you can end up being in their way and they...

Yelp.com Review - by Dan C.

5.0 of 5 stars. The third of three work lunch reviews. The best for last. With a bargain price of $3.99 for a chicken burrito (I needed something fast and easy to eat), I figured it prudent to get two extra $0.99...

3.0 of 5 stars. The smoke wafting from the tin chimneys behind El NorteA�o sometimes gets pretty thick, blowing across Buford Highway like a siren's song, trying hard to draw you in to try their tasty roasted chicken....

3.0 of 5 stars. A steady stream of people in and out of the establishment, even during mid-late afternoon, speaks to the popularity of this restaurant. A wide selection of dishes provides options for nearly everyone....

Yelp.com Review - by eva w.

5.0 of 5 stars. We went for lunch on Sunday. Great chicken, we ate like piggies for $18 (2 people). Ordered the whole chicken family style (easily would feed 4, provided they weren't starving :)) You get rice and...

2.0 of 5 stars. The staff was friendly enough, which is why I have given two stars instead of one. We ordered the pollo rostizado and were extremely disappointed. It was tough and very, very dry. The tortillas...

5.0 of 5 stars. Great fish taco! Crispy, fried, goodness! I'm a NoCal girl (Bay Area Chica) and this is good stuff! Or as we say in the Bay, "Hella Good!"

Yelp.com Review - by Addy C.

3.0 of 5 stars. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing ... I decided to go the cheap route and get the chicken tacos for $1.60 each - it's also my staple for comparison purposes. I also got chicken (vs. other meats)...

5.0 of 5 stars. I have been driving past this place for years and finally stopped and had lunch here the other day. Yes, smoke is billowing out of the back of this place. Its like a mexican BBQ. The roasted...

4.0 of 5 stars. It was yummy. We got a whole chicken, beans and rice all for about $20. Delicious and cheap are a good combination, but like most other places on Buford, service was dreadfully slow.

5.0 of 5 stars. I am not a Mexican food fan. BUT I love El Norteno. Salsa bar, chips in a popcorn maker, all the coke you can drink and some freshly grilled chicken. Not to mention the price is better than any...

3.0 of 5 stars. So I have passed this place several times, and each time there has been a very intoxicating fajita smell wafting from the resto. And it never fails, every time I pass by there I mention to Laura, we...

4.0 of 5 stars. This Mexican style grilled chicken is a force to be reckoned. The Pollo (chicken) is fresh, and so are the amazing flavors of the salsa bar. Many styles of salsa to choose from, a chipotle, verde,...
