Great place to eat in the works!! The marg slush was very good, alongside the corn tortilla taco, and corn that I got!! Every time I’m in the area, I always swing by to get some. Staff is so friendly! Love this place and would definitely recommend trying it out!! :)

Professional employee! Wish they have a bigger menu board (currently just a letter sized paper menu on display by the register). Reasonable amount of food items options. We tried a bowl and a burrito, both surprisingly exceed our expectation in terms of the taste!! Will recommend Taqueria La Luz! Good food!!

Authentic to Mexico City and thoughtfully crafted Mexican cuisine. For anyone who has been to Mexico City, you know that CDMX has some of the best food in the world and Chef Luz brings that to Atlanta's Westside. We stumbled upon Taqueria La Luz on accident for our anniversary lunch. We walked into The Works not realizing they have not officially opened. Chef Luz was working on her new menu and offered us to join her in the tasting experience. We crafted us steak sopes that brought us right back to the rich culinary experience in Mexico City. The sope had a perfectly done fried mesa with layers of steak, avacado and homemade salsa. In addition to the great meal we had, Chef Luz was a great host and a local entrepreneur we will be supporting for years to come.

I do not know how Taqueria La Luz has only 4.0 stars! The Works was where my boyfriend and I met up for our first date two years ago, and I remember getting the Aztec Pie at La Luz back in 2022. That was the last time I visited, before last night when I was in the area, but I spent 2 years thinking about/telling people about that Aztec Pie. I got another one last night, along with an al pastor taco, and a beef taco, and all three items were 10/10! Like...I'm having to stop myself for going back for lunch today. If you're looking for great prices and value, verrry good tacos, perfect seasoning, big portions, friendly service, and lots of options I would highly recommend!

The target audience of this place isn’t real Mexicans like me but the food is authentic and tastes great...If you’re a real Latin person their “spicy” salsa will taste very mild like it did for me. I had the traditional tacos and a huarache. In my photos I put a lot of salsa because that’s how I like it but it doesn’t come like that. Don’t be afraid to try it. There’s a little sign tell you that’s their kitchen is fast and it’s true. I think I had my food under 5 mins. (It was around 11:30 on a Saturday though...)

Awesome food, flavor and service. Their food is flavorful and the margaritas are strong! I tried the nachos with chicken and every bite was full of flavor. Their verde sauce is so good I could drink it. lol the folks working there seem very happy and service is quick, too.
