Editorial Review for Taco Stand – by Ginger Massey
The Scene
The original "T-Stand" in Athens is a Bulldog's temple, and its Atlanta offspring maintains the collegiate vibe. Tavern-style booths, a hearty bar, 11 television sets and good-natured fellowship fill a brown-toned interior that's boathouse-meets-sports bar. During the day, Buckhead office types and families line up at the counter for a quick, cheap lunch. After work, Georgia grads come to loosen the tie and toss back a beer or margarita over queso dip. The Stand's best feature is its spacious back patio that beckons on a nice afternoon.
The Food
The extra-cheesy Mexican fare works great as game day fuel or a late-night grease fix. The best bet is a taco, crunchy or soft. Choose between traditional and specialty tacos, such as barbeque, fried chicken and tilapia. Although basic, it packs the most flavor. The mission here is to fill and fill cheaply. A side note: Go for beans instead of rice.

I love going to the Taco Stand for cheap and easy food. Their fish tacos are one of my favorites! And their queso dip is excellent!

The Taco Stand has solid but uninspired tex-mex food. If I'm really in the mood for a taco or burrito, I'll stop by since it's near my office, but I wouldn't make a special trip. Jalisco (on Peachtree at Peachtree Battle) is a far better option for truly good Mexican food at the same price point.
Pros: speedy service
Cons: average food, sports bar atmosphere
