and I always leave full and happy

• Pros: mostly delicious food

Yay!

Pretty much my favorite restaurant in Atlanta & cause it's so cheap I can afford to come back frequently. The food & drinks are consistently great. The only drawback is that it can be really crowded before a show at the Variety Playhouse (next door).

• Pros: Great food, great, strong drinks, killer juke box, good srvc
• Cons: sometimes too crowded...

You win some, you loose some...

First off, let's just admit here and now that the food is on the, oh, pretty delicious side. You can't go wrong with a quesadilla, burrito, or massive soft taco. Seriously well flavored and stuffed with filling. I wish the chips were better, though. They usually taste like they came straight from a Tostitos bag--very dry and overly salty.

My beef with El Myr is the service. They once told me that all the waitstaff waits on all the tables as a collective effort, which in theory seems like you'd recieve incredible service. How wrong. Inevitably, it takes forever to get your order, refills, silverware, etc. We usually have to grab menus ourselves then hope that someone stumbles by the table to drop off the cheese dip before it's congealed too badly.

• Pros: Good burritos/tacos/quesadillas, interesting clientele, gnarly neighborhood
• Cons: Waitstaff ignores customers, chips are funky, no non-smoking areas
