As Good As It Gets. We are from California and are on a constant quest to find a good Mexican restaurant here in the Atlanta area, specifically near Roswell/Marietta. El Porton is the best we have found so far. They have good variety on their menu, including fish tacos and chile verde, which you don't find too often at other Mexican restaurants in the area. And those entree's are good. What we call Chile Relleno in California, they call Chile Poblano here. If you order a Chile Relleno, they tell me you get a bell pepper stuffed with ground beef. That is just wrong, but at least it can be rectified. The guacamole is good. The bar is good serving margaritas made from scratch, not with a margarita mix. That is a step above most chain Mexican restaurants. They have top shelf tequilas available. What more can you ask for? We have found the service to be good and helpful. They try to accomodate special requests.
