Yelp.com Review - by Jeff H.

2.0 of 5 stars. Random... Perhaps reminiscent of that old mexican chain restaurant Chi Chi's? The cheese dip was runny and had no taste.. My lady had the carne asada.. which was covered with a little tasting brown...

Yelp.com Review - by David D.

1.0 of 5 stars. Many people I know love this place I've been trying to like this place for over 20 years. I cant stand it, the food makes me sick every time. The only thing I can say good about this place is the...

Yelp.com Review - by Heather S.

3.0 of 5 stars. We used to go here a lot, so much that we were BFFs with the wait staff who would always give us free drinks. Maybe that's why we went? But about 4 years ago, I had enough of mediocre mexican food. I...

Yelp.com Review - by Nadia M.

1.0 of 5 stars. meh, when I first moved into this hood, I went to Monterey out of proximity. I tend to eat at off hours so I never had a problem getting in, but if you try to go at any reasonable hour, good luck,...

Yelp.com Review - by Nikkie F.

2.0 of 5 stars. It's a Mexican restaurant. Nothing special, just run of the mill Mexican food. It's in Tucker. If you live here, it's a nearby option. It's constantly packed, so you can safely assume that you won't...

Yelp.com Review - by mary m.

1.0 of 5 stars. This place has the worst Mexican food I have ever had. Seriously people, I have had better Mexican at Taco Bell. My guess the reason this place is always crowded is because a) they have a patio, b)...

Yelp.com Review - by todd h.

2.0 of 5 stars. I have gone to Monterrey a couple of times because it was near my house and considering that the lot is always full I thought it had to be decent. The food is pretty bad, the meat is basically school...

Yelp.com Review - by Gretchen S.

2.0 of 5 stars. The food is good, the crowd, not so. Every stinking time I've been here I've had to dodge kids playing in the already too crowded parking lot (!?!WTF!?!) while their boozy parents were getting...

Yelp.com Review - by Courtney M.

3.0 of 5 stars. Love me some Monterrey's on Lavista. Food is always on par, wait staff is always super friendly, and the tequila flows endlessly...just heavenly. Best time to go is during the spring/summer - their...

Yelp.com Review - by Margaret B.

1.0 of 5 stars. Why is this place always so crowded? I knew before visiting to keep my expectations low for Mexican food in Atlanta, but considering how crowded this place was I thought I was in at least for some...

Yelp.com Review - by Mark D.

3.0 of 5 stars. Monterrey is exactly like the many other cookie-cutter Mexican restaurants in the Atlanta area. Decent food, decent prices. It was surprisingly busy early Sunday afternoon. We had to ask to get a...

Good place - great margarita

Went on a saturday and parking was a little tight but found a place after a minute. Food is very good and texas margaritas were amazing. Try the stuffed anaheim peppers in a combo or the enchiladas verdes. We...

yummm by Gabrielle E. at InsiderPages

this is my favourite restaurant in Atlanta. It's always full, has a real family-type atmosphere, totally affordable, and absolutely delicious. Try the shrimp quesadillas or the taco salads. I literally dream...

Fly in the food and not even an apology

We have eaten at this restaurant many times and were just in for a dinner. We ordered 3 chicken burritos and then ordered a fourth when we realized the kids were going to be eating all their food. My wife took...

Yelp.com Review - by Shawn W.

3.0 of 5 stars. Monterrey is a neighborhood Mexican restaurant just a shade west of Northlake Mall on Lavista Road. The food here is good, though Miss D. disagrees, probably for reasons of ambience. Very small...

Better than most Mexican food in Atlanta

I have to admit but coming from Texas where Tex-Mex is at every corner, Monterrey is a good substitute. Good prices on most of their menu, but it is sometimes hard to get a table during the lunch period.

Not as great as I had hoped

I had heard good things about this restaurant which prompted me to visit. First, parking was very difficult due to a small parking lot and a lot of people. The place was pretty small inside and seemed a bit...

Visited Moneterrey for the first time a few weeks ago. The parking lot is always full so we decided to give it a try. The food was great. Tasty and the shrimp quesadilla was packed with shrimp - which I...

My Church Group Got me Hooked

My singles class at church used to come here for lunch about once a month and it was a popular spot. We usually had 12-15 people in our group. Everyone seems to enjoy the food. I especially loved their chicken...

Service, service, and more service.

The other reviewers are telling the truth. We eat here often and have always had prompt service. Even on the busiest nights, they somehow get our food out to us amazingly fast. A testament to the dedicated...
