Nuevo Laredo is an Atlanta favorite, serving up homestyle Mexican dishes in a cozy, nostalgia-filled space that promises an authentic culinary experience.
"Nuevo Laredo has been a longtime staple for residents of the surrounding neighborhoods of Underwood Hills, Bolton, Berkeley Park, and Blandtown. Serving a menu filled with Mexican comfort foods and margaritas, the Cantina’s compact parking lot is always full. Expect everything from loaded nachos, tortas, huevos rancheros, and enchiladas to tamales, fajitas, chalupas, and even lobster tacos on the menu at this Atlanta favorite." - Eater Staff
"This Westside cantina located on Chattahoochee Avenue has been a longtime staple for area residents. Queso blanco here comes with the option to add pickled jalapeños. Pair it with a margarita before digging into one of Nuevo’s heaping platters. Call to order takeout." - Eater Staff
"Home-cooked, authentic Mexican food is this dive’s specialty, and it’s clear by the throngs of customers often gathered on its front deck that it’s a crowd-pleaser. Nuevo doesn’t accept reservations, but waiting is part of the fun, especially if you have a margarita in your hand. This is an extremely casual hole-in-the-wall establishment that’ll give you a warm and fuzzy feeling as you dig into its addictive chips and salsa and traditional Mexican plates.Location: 1495 Chattahoochee Ave NW, Atlanta, GA 30318" - MATADOR_NETWORK
"South-of-the-Border Fare This colorful building in an area of warehouses may not look like much, but Nuevo Laredo Cantina is consistently rated among the best Mexican restaurants in Atlanta. It specializes in pork brisket, chicken mole, and chiles rellenos, but everything is good. Take note of the photos and mementos on the wall from patrons who have fallen in love with the restaurant."
"Nuevo Laredo opened on the Westside in 1992 and soon became a popular neighborhood spot for both lunch and dinner. Serving authentic, home-cooked Mexican comfort food, the Cantina’s compact parking lot is always full from the time the doors open until they close." - Beth McKibben
