La Placita Taqueria - Mexican restaurant in Lawrenceville - 2948 Five Forks Trickum Rd SW B, USA

Hidden gem! The Al pastor is my favorite! The pork tacos had a lot of flavor and was in the sweeter side but delicious with the hot sauces. The beef taco was tough to chew my first time trying it but will give it another try next time. Overall a great place for tacos near us.

I ordered a torta & it was pretty soggy, I couldn't even eat it in peace because it was already falling apart. The drinks are super sweet. I also didn't like that. Besides that the people attend you well here.

Food was ok. Love the taqueria atmosphere. Dining furniture wasn’t in very good condition and hopefully can be repaired/replaced soon. Seems to be a favorite spot for many locals.

Solid place for tacos. Sauces are good. Give free chips and dip and They sell beer too! 2/05/2023 edit: not sure what happened to the asada taco but it was not good this time. Could’ve been sliced thinner and seasoned better

I was overcharged by this restaurant on two separate occasions. My first time here, I ordered 2 super burritos for pickup. My friend picked up our order, and our total was more than we expected. When she asked, the cashier said they must have misunderstood our order and made the la placita burrito instead. Not wanting to bother them with remaking our food, my friend paid for the burritos. We were disappointed as the burritos were just okay, a bit bland. On another occasion, I ordered 3 tacos in person. After I paid and looked at my receipt in my car, I realized I was charged for 4 tacos. I went back inside and the cashier said “yes, I can give you your change. I was waiting for you to realize and come back”. Which I thought was weird. Since then, another friend has had a similar encounter. Food is just okay, not worth the trouble with so many other Mexican restaurants available in the area

The staff was extremely friendly from me calling to ask about what they offered to placing and picking up the order. The Birria tacos were solid but the consommé was a little lackluster. The mild salsa was very good and the chips were fresh. The guacamole was also good.

A good Mexican friend of mine introduced me to this quaint neighborhood eatery klose to his home after inquired about the best Mexican in his opinion. He raved about this small place in a smaller strip plaza attached to a gas station. I offered to buy so we headed in. Not much to say about ambience but that wasn't why we were there... It was all about the food baby!! He suggested the Burritos, Nachos, etc but I wanted to try something different. So we went for the infamous "Chilaquiles Platter"... and I do mean "Platter"!!! You kan get with meat or opt for the veggie option. We went for the steak. It comes with refried beans, huge piece of palomino steak, rice, salsa, fried korn tortillas, cheese, onions and top it with an egg PLEASE... perfection is what I say!!! And the complimentary sauces to top it with were an added bonus! You won't regret a visit!!

Finally a Mexican spot close to home! Visited for the first time with a few friends and we had a great experience. This is a family owned and operated restaurant, the type where you're eating Grandma's authentic homemade recipes. We were greeted with smiles behind the counter where we ordered our meal. Menu is easy to understand and has a few items that I usually only see at authentic places. Moderately priced as well. They are very flexible, we ordered 2 meatless enchilada platters. Replaced the meat with veggies and beans. Delicious! Our other two friends ordered gorditas and tacos. Handmade tortillas on the tacos made them especially awesome. And top it off with a salsa bar that has everything you would want to put on your taco.
