La Hacienda Midtown

A new favorite spot for us! Our waiter Miguel was so sweet and helpful. He took my mom’s food restrictions into consideration and our dishes came out hot fresh and correct. The frozen margarita and the food were so good btw😭❤️! We will be back!

Moved to Atlanta in July. Been to and seen plenty of Mexican joints but they’ve always had a more polished or trendy vibe. Nothing wrong with that, continue to go. Foods always great but I’ve been missing the less curated, more lived-in energy, similar to family owned ones back where I’m from. So tonight I was intro’ed to this place. Food. Was. Delicious. Got the pollo hacienda with creamy poblano sauce. So good. Sauce is mildly rich, but packed with a nice flavor. And when I say the shrimp were cooked perfectly, and seasoned perfectly. I ain’t lying. The tacos midtown! Whew. Fried chicken cutlets. Cooked perfectly. Moist and soft on the inside. Came out piping hot. Enchilada supreme, came out LOADED. Table salsa and chips were great and our server was also attentive but not in our face.

Got a takeout order and found a BUG cooked INSIDE THE RICE. Seeing as the rice is used in many dishes there… I’m sure there are several INSECTS INSIDE THE FOOD. Disgusting. Apparently no quality control.

The salsa is good. They do make fresh guacamole at your table. Just make sure you do not eat too many chips. Chicken bowl was good. Pollo hacienda was average. Service was not that good, you have to wait longer. If you select outside sitting, be ready for dust and car noise since the patio is attached to the road and inside of restaurant it was noisy

This place was completely empty. The parking was bad. We left but couldn't find another place. Went back, the place was still empty, everyone working was kind and we were still the only people there. The food was awful and cold and took a long time. The salsa tasted like tomato paste . We had 2 house margs, 2 lunch specials and a side taco and cheese dip and it was $70. If this is a franchise it needs new ownership and if not it needs to close it was by far disgusting.
