Georgia native Chance Evans is arguably the most successful restaurateur in Atlanta. He hasn’t franchised nor expanded choosing instead to make sure his one restaurant remains unique and first-class. Evans developed his love of Mexico during his frequent travels there while employed with the Coca-Cola Company in the 1960s. He visits Mexico often to this day, a practice apparent by the restaurant’s flair and décor, a menagerie of items hand-picked during his visits.  

     Chance Evans is a classic example of the cliché, “do what you love and the success will follow.” 

     He invites you to come in and taste what he loves about Mexico. Recommended dishes are the Brisket Barbacoa, Chicken Mole (mo-lay), over-stuffed poblano Chili Rellenos, and the most recent menu additions- Lobster or Fish (grilled salmon) Tacos. Nuevo Laredo Cantina: cult Mexican for die-hard fans.
