What Makes the Best Burritos in Oakwood Georgia? We'll Show You

You know how some places claim to serve "authentic" Mexican food but somehow miss the mark. Well, if you're looking to enjoy mouthwatering burritos in Oakwood Georgia, take no chances! 

Here at Taco Madre, we've mastered the art of the burrito, and honestly, once you try ours, you'll understand why locals keep coming back for more.

Our Traditional Burrito: A Perfect Classic

Let's start with our Traditional Burrito. It's exactly what you'd want a burrito to be, but executed the way we think it should be done. Picture your choice of protein (and we promise, whatever you pick will be seasoned to perfection) wrapped up with fluffy rice, creamy refried beans, fresh lettuce, and that bright pico de gallo that just makes everything pop.

But here's where we get creative. We add avocado slices (not that mushy guacamole you sometimes get elsewhere), cool sour cream, and shredded cheese that actually melts into all those other flavors. And it comes with a side of crispy French fries: we know fries with a burrito might sound unusual, but trust us on this one. Sometimes the best combinations are the ones you don't expect!

Our Madre Burrito: Our Signature Masterpiece

Now, if you really want to experience what makes Taco Madre special, you've got to try our Madre Burrito, our pride and joy. 

We start with the same foundation of your protein choice, rice, and refried beans, but then we take it to another level. We smother this beauty in our house queso dip. Then we add avocado slices and your choice of our signature red or green salsa. Our red salsa has this deep, rich flavor with just enough heat to wake up your taste buds, while our green offers a brighter kick. Either way, you're in for a treat.

A Little Oakwood History with Your Burritos

Here's a fun fact while you're enjoying your burrito: Oakwood wasn't always called Oakwood. It started as "Odell's Crossing" but got its current name because it was the regular fuel stop for wood-burning locomotives. The community quickly blossomed into a thriving railroad center with a depot packed with traveling passengers, and those trains needed oak wood to keep running.

Today, instead of fueling locomotives, Oakwood fuels visitors exploring the beautiful Lake Lanier area. One of the best entry points into Lake Lanier can be found on Oakwood's northwestern shores at Balus Creek Park, where you can launch your boat into Georgia's largest lake. After a day on the water or just soaking up the sun, nothing hits the spot quite like one of our hearty burritos!

What makes our burritos a favorite goes beyond ingredients or generous portions (though both of those things definitely matter to us). The way we balance flavors so that no single ingredient overpowers the others, the way our house-made salsas complement rather than mask the other components, and the way we wrap each burrito so that it actually stays together when you eat it is what our dear customers value so much.

In this town, which has grown rapidly while maintaining its small-town charm, we at Taco Madre believe that good food and genuine hospitality never go out of style. So next time you're craving burritos in Oakwood Georgia, join us!
