La Estrella - Athens

Awesome chicken suppe perfect for the cold season, but if they are like me chicken soup is delicious at any time: it is all in the broth. the best cervich in the city and I tried them all. I didn't make her breakfast, but this is the next one on the list.

The very best Mexican food in all of Athens, GA. Fresh, great flavors, polite and attentive service, stellar dishes. No aspect of this restaurant is anything but the highest quality. Support this local gem!

Doesn't look like much from the outside nor inside, but LET ME TELL YALL!! This is the ONLY place I'll go for mexican in Athens. Period. It's amazing authentic. Prices are fair for the amount of food I get and the taste! I ate here once, and legit would get off work and get a plate of this food EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. for at least 2 months. You will not be disappointed!!

The food is delicious!!! The staff (including chef are the most friendly welcoming : I eat here every single time I crave Mexican food. I'm not Mexican but I know when I'm eating authentic/home made food and this most definitely is the place to go for that. Don't let the location make you think otherwise.....I'll admit I didn't want to try it because of that and ever since I gave it a chance I can't stay away :

The service is excellent, BUT I cannot understand the high reviews for this place. The chips were dry and stale, the salsa was flavorless, and the chorizo queso was just sad. My burrito was regular sized and bland. The beef fajitas were probably the best thing we ordered, but bordered on flavorless. I would call this decent Tex-Mex and by no means the best Mexican food ever like all these other reviewers...
