El Ponce

"Boasting one of the best patios on Ponce, and with some seriously strong (but delicious) margaritas, El Ponce is a frequent spot for friends gathering for Mexican food any day of the week in Atlanta. Family-owned and operated, the taqueria serves taco plates with a choice of rice and beans or elote (Mexican street corn), overstuffed burritos, Oaxacan-style tamales, and a super satisfying chicken mole enchilada plate. Wash it all down with a margarita or a freshly made horchata. Make sure to also try the Valentina wings and chimichanga at El Ponce." - Eater Staff

"Just down from La Fonda on Ponce, the spacious El Ponce includes a large, street-facing patio and a wide variety of taqueria fare. While the menu offers queso blanco, the move here is the queso fundido with grilled onions, pico de gallo, and poblano peppers served with warm tortillas. Order online for delivery or takeout." - Eater Staff

"This family-owned and operated restaurant features one of the best patios on Ponce. Head here for plates of tacos, including birria, tamales, chimichangas, and chile rellenos and pair a meal with a strong, yet refreshing margarita on the rocks or frozen. Try the spicy Herradura made with silver tequila, Ancho Reyes Liqueur, fresh lime juice, jalapenos, and agave. Folks can also order batches of El Ponce margaritas to go. Make sure to order some Valentina hot sauce wings." - Eater Staff
