Don Pedro's in Norcross seems to be just as good as the other location in Duluth when they were operating. The only major difference is that drinks like Horchata aren't self-serve unlimited.Purely food based review:Combo plate with Steak & Pastor tacos ($8) - solid option with your choice of two tacos. Refried beans a little more watery but still good.Lengua sandwich ($10) - Pretty good sandwich but you need to eat it quick before it gets soggy. Lengua tastes juicy as desired.

When I first started working in Norcross I asked my students what Mexican restaurant they go to, and they all said, Don Pedros.I’ve been eating there once to twice a week ever since! Sometimes on my way home I’ll order ahead their steer-style tacos (just “tacos”), sometimes their enchilada suizaz, and sometimes their very fresh shrimp ceviche. I’m very picky about the quality of ceviche, and I hate recipes that cheat with thawed shrimp and cocktail sauce. But not this place.Their simplest offerings are delicious, which is why it’s the best place for Mexican food on Buford Highway this side of 285

Well we have been a fan of this place for whatever we have always ordered. We usually as a family try our favorite soft tacos and it has never been disappointing. The taste is authentic and lip-smacking. The place is a little crowded and the parking is a challenge on weekends, but worth the chaos. The service is reasonably good and fast compared to the crowd. Though noisy and crowded its awesome for a fun-taste-tic food.

English spoken during order taking is always horrible. But food is good. Portions could use a little improvement . Atmosphere inside is way to noisy including a loud speaker going off constantly makes it difficult to relax. I won't dine in again.

Decent place to get Mexican food. The steak was kind of dry but the spicy beef tender and juicy.

If I could give zero stars I would. This is really unhealthy food, very processed, very high in sodium, CHEAP taste. This food Garon your health. Very disappointing. Disgusting interiors, food on the floor, food on tables, garbage everywhere. I feel gross after sitting and eatinf here. I had grilled chicken burrito and a few eat this burrito every day, I guarantee you you will have cardiovascular problems.

This is our go to place for authentic Mexican food! The tacos Al pastor are so flavorful. Well, everything is, that is just my personal favorite. Burritos are so tasty too. There is a great selection of salsas and pico de gallo available too. The restrooms were immaculate. We went at 3:40, which is not a busy time, and everything was still prepared fresh. That says a lot about a restaurant.

A little hidden gem! The exterior appears can be a little suspect but once you taste the food you will be very pleasantly surprised. The food is super fresh and soooooo tasty. Its very busy at lunch time but they do have a drive thru which I do suggest since the parking is very limited. My co-workers told me about this spot and I'm so glad they did. I had the #2 Mar Y Tierra. It was so good!!! Steak, shrimp, rice, beans and salad. I substituted the rice and beans for a salad. The steak is chargrilled to perfection and the shrimp is grilled. My co-workers got soft steak tacos that had them licking their fingers. My only complaint would be that you order when you come in and then they call your number to come and get your food. I never like this concept as it is quite busy with the back and forth but its just something you have to get use to. The sauces and pico de gallo is set up in its own area so you should get that before you sit down or there is a lot of back and forth walking. My only complaint!

Very authentic Mexican fast food, anything you get from this place will not disappoint. On the weekends they get busy but I've personally never waited more then 15 mins. to eat here.

An authentic Mexican restaurant that offers traditionally made comfort food.
