What People Are Saying About Willy's Mexicana Grill - Vinings

In Short – Functional and fast, this local burrito chain features a spiffed-up version of the mighty handheld meal. Thanks to some good basic flavors (cilantro-garlic steak, chipotle barbecue pork) and a generous hand with garnishes, tese burritos are too heavy on beans-and-rice. The "Super" comes with lettuce, cheese, guacamole, salsa and sour cream. Vegetarian options are also available, as are quesadillas and tacos. Stick with the burritos, especially the celebrated Green Mole Chicken.

By far the BEST burrito in Atlanta! Authentic California style!

by molosmiles at Citysearch

The burritos are huge! They are filled with all the fresh-ingredients you can eat and rolled into a piece of heaven. Tacos are good, too! They just got soup combos. Great for a cold winter day! I eat here three times a week. It's so much better than Moes (everything they used is pre-packaged).

  • Pros: Inexpensive and good for you
  • Cons: Parking, line at lunch (it moves quick though)

Best burrito in Atlanta, hands down!

This is still the best burrito chain in Atlanta, hands down. Lots of other burrito chains are "h i t or miss" (Raging Burrito) or just gross (Moe's). Willy's doesn't have a lot on the menu, but everything they do have is fresh, delicious, and memorable. You'll want to go back the next day. The service is always fast and friendly, and while seating can sometimes be a challenge during the lunch rush (at any location), it's worth it even if you have to take your food back to the office. My favorite is the carnitas with black beans, although they do wonderful chicken and steak. They recently got rid of my favorite menu addition of all time - the mole sauce. Made me cry big tears when I heard that their rich, dark mole was gone forever.

Another favorite of mine is the nachos. Willy's is known for their thin, delicious tortilla chips and they do them right in this monstrous dish with jack cheese, beans, and whatever toppings you desire, toasted under a broiler. My only advice to anyone visiting Willy's: speak up! Don't be bashful about letting the folks behind the counter know exactly what you want and exactly what they're doing wrong. They will start over if they have to, with quiet efficiency. That's just the way they work.

Oh, and try the queso dip if you haven't already - it is really good, some of the best in the city.

  • Pros: Great food, fast service, good value
  • Cons: sometimes crowded

I eat here about once a week, even if my girlfriend doesn't want too. It is simply the best and biggest burrito in Atlanta. Nobody else can even come close.
