Editorial Description by Citysearch
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.

Willy's Mexicana Grill is Delicicious & a Great Bargain!  5 Star Rating - World class

By Katy D.

I've tried the Burritos, Queso's & Tacos. Delicious, fresh food. No ground meat or unidentifiable stringy chicken for this fast-food restaurant. You know exactly what you are eating, and they make it just like you want it made. Prices are very reasonable - about $6-8 per meal, including drink. I sometimes go and get 8 tacos for my family of four - it comes with chips & salsa, and take them home; dinner for about $20 - and everyone is crazy over the taste. Real chicken, real steak. You really can't beat it.

Great Burritos!  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Ureka E.

They have better ingridients than Moe's and not as expensive as Chipotle's. Their burritoes are delicious and they are not stingy with ingredients at all. They may not be authentic Mexican food but by far the best Tex-Mex restaurant in Atlanta.

Amazing Burrito  5 Star Rating - World class

By Sanjeev R. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 1,944

When I went to college, I used to go to Willy's at least twice a week. After graduating and not having a Willy's nearby, I'm in constant withdrawl. Willy's makes the best burritos I've ever had. They are freshly made in front of you, have great toppings, and are huge which make them a great deal. I love this place and miss it so much.

The most flavorful and filling burrito in town. I recommend you try one of their world class burritos if you love authentic mexican food. Served with a smile and plenty of drink refills.

Good, but where is Chiptole?? 4 Star Rating - Very good

By atlimpressivefun

Willy's is good stuff, and it is the best burrito that Atlanta has to offer right now. Chiptole's restaurants and burritos kick some serious macho guaco butt though, and I hope they get to Atlanta soon!

Better Mexican 4 Star Rating - Very good

By andrewfischer

In a city filled with bad mexican eateries, Willy's stands out with decent food at low prices. Willy's is not as good as Rubio's, but Rubio's doesn't have a Franchise in Atlanta...

Pros: Inexpensive
