Takoz Express

The real deal! The Tacos de CABEZA & Tacos de Lengua were phenomenal! Nicole said the tamales were the best she's had!! Barbacoa Tacos were stuffed with flavorful soft meat! Fresh Corn tortillas hold together even when wrapping up the taco Tight! Tamales were moist and thick as usual. We love both the roja & Verde tamales. No seating inside or outside, but eating outside on the curb is usually how best authentic Hispanic food is consumed! We drive out of our way to visit, anytime we go to NEGA. Definitely worth the stop!

My wife came home from work on Tuesday and said they had ordered their lunch from an AMAZING Mexican Restaurant. She insisted we go and try it out on Wednesday since she was off work and it would be good for lunch. I was skeptical, but we drove to Industrial Dr and Lumpkin Campground Rd intersection at 12:55 PM and found Takoz. It is well hidden, beside Gilstrap and facing Industrial Dr on the side of the building in an industrial area. As often as I have passed this building, I have never known it was there. I would not have found this hidden gem if I had not been looking. Being an industrial park, parking was limited, but we found a space and walked inside. It immediately reminded me of many of the small mom-and-pop restaurants I visited as a child living in Miami, Florida. If you are looking for elegance and a seating area, this is not for you, but if you are looking for hole-in-the-wall authentic Mexican food prepared fresh to order, then you will LOVE Takoz Express. The lady working the front counter was super friendly and helpful and took our order shortly after we arrived. I ordered one each of the Steak, Chorizo, Grilled Chicken, and Pork soft Tacos. My wife ordered two Steak Tacos, a side order of homemade warm chips, and a large Guacamole that was freshly made at the restaurant. Our eyes were larger than our stomachs. I ate two of my Tacos and a few chips and was full. I had to save the other two for my lunch today. The Tacos are authentic street Tacos with a generous serving of meat topped with onion and cilantro in your choice of a warm flour tortilla or two corn tortillas. All the meats I tried were seasoned and cooked to perfection with generous portions. The Guacamole was amazing, the only problem is once you taste it, you have a hard time stopping. On top of an absolutely incredible meal, I also received a 5% off coupon for our meals after checking in on the Yelp app. If you are looking for a filling, authentic meal at a very reasonable price, topped off with great customer service, this is where you want to come. I was amazed to find genuine, authentic Mexican cuisine in Dawsonville. This is our new favorite place for a snack or a meal. We will see you on Yelp and see you at Takoz Express.

What a hidden gem!! We walked in on a Saturday to get lunch & it did not disappoint. It was easy to order & came out quickly. Everything was fresh & tasted wonderful! Tacos were a 10/10, chips & queso 10/10. Will definitely be back to enjoy some of their other menu items as well!

Nice little mom & pop authentic taco shop offering only takeout. Their tacos start at $2 for steak & chicken and $2.50 for lingua and other specialty tacos. They even have the pure cane sugar cokes! My son (7) says they are the best steak tacos he has ever had.

Absolutely incredible! The best tacos in North Georgia! (I’ve tried them all) First time trying this establishment today, and the food was excellent. The service was great and fast! I will definitely be back to try the various menu items. Awesome food!

Absolutely the best Gorditas ever. Found this little spot about a year ago. I come up here once every 3 months and it’s a must stop everytime.

Love this place and have been coming for years. They are all friendly and quick with the food. The food is always fresh and tasty. Highly recommend as a lunch spot or even a taco night place. It's only takeout but it works !

We came here based off reviews and were a little thrown off by the hidden location and lack of tables. The worker there who was the cashier and only team member we could see explained they were strictly a take out restaurant and had no places to eat at the restaurant. There weren't even any trash cans inside or out which meant they were strictly serving food for take out only and customers would have to eat elsewhere or in their car and throw away the trash at home or a gas station or in our case, car wash. We ordered tacos (steak and pastor) a torta and chips and guacamole and two small horchatas. The food and drink were solid - very fresh and simply put outstanding. I could see why they had good reviews and my wife and I were very happy about our choice for lunch. The salsas they served with our entrees were great as well. The guacamole was wonderful and tasted freshly made. Parking is pretty simple and this restaurant is a fantastic choice if you are shopping at the 400 outlet mall aka North Georgia Premium Outlets. 5 stars and a muchas gracias!
