In honor of Cinco de Mayo, we wanted round up and share some of our staff’s favorite Mexican restaurants! Did someone say QUESO?!
...great atmosphere, and even better food, you can’t go wrong with ANYTHING on the menu. The O.G. Marg is a must.
...great for large parties, easy to get to from showsite, and you can enjoy shopping their artisan crafted market next-door.
...small tacos, delicious margaritas, and be sure to save room for dessert! The churros are a must-have.
...a quick ride over to Buckhead, great authentic, family owned and operated Mexican cuisine. Get ready to smell some sizzling fajitas!
...hole in the wall, homestyle Mexican meals, and rated one of the best Mexican spots in Atlanta!
If Mexican food isn’t your thing, don’t worry, we have you covered! See below for more noteworthy places to grab a bite to eat and enjoy a refreshing cocktail.
Hawkers
I asked some colleagues for their recommendations and Hawkers was at the top of the list. Yes, technically it’s a chain, but it’s new to Atlanta and Old Fourth Ward. Hawkers features "unapologetic flavors of true Asian Food." The Singapore "Chilli" Crab and Roti Canai tapas are menu highlights. You’ll find Hawkers on a part of the Beltline that features other restaurants that will cater to everyone in your group.
Estrella
Estrella is a new rooftop cocktail bar above Bazati on the Beltline. I love to visit Estrella for a breathtaking view of the skyline at sunset. Head here to find your new favorite summer cocktail, their Champagne Hibiscus Punch. Their menu changes seasonally to reflect locally sourced ingredients, so you can be sure to find something new each time you visit.
Estrella
Centennial Park District
If all of this sounds too ambitious, downtown Atlanta has plenty to offer in walking distance from AmericasMart. The Centennial Park District features more than a dozen options including STATS Brewpub, Dos Bocas and the rooftop SkyLounge at the Glenn. Take a seat and dine al fresco before heading back to your hotel and resting up for another day at Market.
Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q
If you want to eat some mouth-watering barbecue while you’re down South, look no further than Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q. You can’t go wrong with any of their meats, but don’t forget the sides – Frito Pie, Brunswick Stew and ChiliMac are a few faves. Parking is limited, so ride sharing is the best bet. Sweet Auburn Barbecue is another great option located in the Poncey-Highlands neighborhood.
Five Daughters Bakery
We love a good donut; who doesn't? If you have a sweet tooth, you’ll want to try this one out. Five Daughters Bakery has been in Ponce City Market for a few years, but they recently opened a new location in Westside Provisions. Head over to the Westside to avoid paying for parking and enjoy a 100 layer donut. They feature new flavors each month giving us a reason to keep on coming back for more.
Little Rey
Little Rey
Atlanta culinary legend Ford Fry's next adventure brings a taco and chicken al carbon restaurant to Piedmont Avenue. If you need to fulfill your Tex-Mex cravings, head here. You can even order in their take-out window and head right back to your hotel to relax.
Tiny Lou’s
If you’re looking for an all-in-one hotel and dining experience to make it easy, book your stay at the boutique Hotel Clermont and enjoy the rooftop bar, Cafe Clermont for breakfast, and Tiny Lou’s for dinner.

We’re the first to admit that Atlanta Market can be a bit exhausting. If getting out of downtown just isn’t in the cards, the hotels around AmericasMart are just what you need. Hotel Indigo and the Ritz Carlton are two options for your stay that also offer delicious meals after a long day of discovering new product. A little room service never hurt anyone!
... we love their orange pistachio donut!
... head to the Westside for upscale Vietnamese food.
... (and anywhere else in Krog Street Market) – they have one of the BEST burgers in Atlanta.
... you can find tasty acai bowls right here! They also have smoothies, poke bowls and a whole bunch of other dishes.
... all time city-fav for ice cream! Find Jeni's on the Westside or in Krog Street Market.
... great for tapas, and also has great brunch! Find locations on the Westside and in Inman Park.
... great for food and shopping. Whether exploring alone or in a group, there is always something new to try here.
... Middle Eastern cuisine from small bites to kabobs.
... deep dish pizza; the ultimate comfort food. This restaurant is cashless!
