Went to this small restaurant after having a tough time deciding what to eat. I looked around to see what is around us and I now base my decisions on reviews- this place had 5 stars with over 126 reviews. Not bad! So my wife and I ordered 3 Birria tacos w/consome and potato tacos (came with consome) even though it wasn't listed on menu. Ordered 2 Horchatas. First bite of our tacos and our eyes rolled back. It was the most savory tacos we have had in a good while. For my potato tacos they topped it off with lettuce and crema and quest fresco! I mean, I kid you not. I am a very picky person when I comes to tacos. We found our spot. We'll be coming back when we have our cravings! Try it for yourself!!
Omg this place is awesome. They have the best tacos de birria I have tried. Also their tacos de papa and their fried tacos de res. The Horchata, and cucumber with chia aguas frescas are ????????????. Honestly this place deserves a 10 star all their food has been great and their customer service is fantastic.
This place is amazing. Great customer service, fast service, and amazing food. This birria taste homemade the type you would have at a quinceañera. Located next to El Super with a couple small tables outside to eat. I will be back. By far the best birria restaurant I've had.
