Mexican Restaurant in Grant Park, Atlanta
Patria means homeland
From the agave fields of Jalisco to Grant Park
Before he was a chef, Octavio Aguirre was a jimador in the agave fields of Jalisco, learning the craft from the ground up. He brought that respect for the land to Atlanta, and in 2018 his family opened Patria Cocina.
The kitchen cooks the way his family did: fresh produce through the week, salsas and sauces made in house, never canned, and no artificial syrups or dyes, in the food or behind the bar.
The kitchen
Beyond the familiar
A menu drawn from many regions of Mexico, with the dishes, ingredients and flavors that tell the deeper story.
Pulpo Polanco
Grilled octopus in spicy chimichurri, roasted corn, poblano cauliflower, house avocado salad
Order it online
Tacos de Papa
Three crispy potato tacos, green tomatillo salsa, radish, cabbage, onion, avocado, sour cream, cheese
Order it onlineAlso on the menu: ceviche Jalisco, sopes on house-made masa, green chicken pozole, carne asada, carnitas and achiote salmon.
Agave has always been more than an ingredient. It is sacred. It represents resilience. Transformation. Cultural pride. It is heritage in liquid form. Mole tells the other half of the story.

A curated shelf that celebrates the people behind the spirits: family-owned, producer-owned and small-batch tequila, mezcal and agave spirits. Dozens of mezcals from several regions, tequilas from blanco to extra añejo, and bottles meant to be discovered.

What guests say
Great Mexican restaurant featuring tasty menu items like esquites (it was very cheesy) and ceviche (with a mix of fish, octopus, etc). Service was prompt and friendly and they have ample parking as well.
Amazing food & atmosphere. I had ceviche, mixed drink & tacos gobernadores. I absolutely loved it!
I had an appointment in Grant Park area, didn't know where to go, and saw this gem with free parking! The camarones a la kora shrimp are some of the best I've had!
