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.
