This is a gem of a family run restaurant. The specialty is their house-made birria, served in a wide range of dishes. We've tried the quesa birria, the torta de birria, and the amazing birria ramen.The ramen was what drew us to this charming place, and is what keeps us coming back.They have a generous parking lot at the side of the building. They are also wheelchair and mobility scooter accessible.

It was delicious the first time, that's why I went back the next day, but they didn't serve the same, it was more beans than barbecue, very delicious but ok

We are in the area to visit and wanted to eat quesabirria and found this place in a Google search. We got the ramen birria, cabeza tacos, kids taco meal, and the quesabirria. Everything was amazing! We will definitely need to go back before we head back home.

This place was delicious! Super tender birria with seriously good seasoning. We ordered a variety of dishes and ALL of them were bomb! Plus they had 5 different sauces to choose from that added to the flavor. Their horchata is authentic too.

Small mom and pop restaurant that specializes in birria if you didn't guess from the name, haha. The space is welcoming and clean. Came in on a weeknight not too long before closing so place was not busy at all and I was able to get seated and order right away. The person there was super friendly and helpful. After getting an explanation of the most popular items, my choice was pretty clear. I got 'El Sampler' so I got to try everything! El Sampler = 1 mulita, 1 Quesa Birria Taco, 1 Taco Dorado, 1 Street Taco, and a Consome. It's a lot of food! (had to take a lot of it to go). Everything was so flavorful and comforting. The produce / fixins here was nice and fresh. There are some additional salsas to enjoy with your meal and I got a Coke to wash it all down. Just a really wonderful place. I love places like this and love to support them. I had a really great experience, but not sure if that's just how it is or if it is because the place wasn't busy at all at the moment. Totally recommend, especially if you are looking for great birria for a reasonable price. Definitely felt like I got a lot of bang for my buck here. Place got on my radar when I first had food next door. It looked intriguing from the outside. Not long after, I actually saw super high scores and this actually being on Yelp's SGV best list. So that gave me the extra shove to come in and try this place. Because I did come around on the later side during the week, street parking was super easy to find.

Wow wow wow!!! Visiting from FL however I am Mexican with many aunts and uncles who live near the border so I know some good Mexican cooking and I must say this is a hidden gem. We had the birria taco meal with Aguas naturales (horchata and a mix of pina and orange) and everything was soooooo gooood. Everything was so fresh that I felt like my Tia invited me over for some good Mexican home cooking. Thanks again you guys for the delicious meal and the amazing hospitality. Gabriel was super friendly and loved how you broke down the menu and salsas for us. If you are in the area then do yourself a favor and eat here. Oh yes and my fiancé said the flan is to die for. Stop playing and open up a spot in Orlando so we can have this more often lol

4.5/5 stars. Stopped by to grab a light lunch/snack for takeout. Ordered 2 quesabirria and small consomme.Quesabirria had perfect amount cheese. The meat was super flavorful and juicy. I just wished the taco was more crispy. Definitely hits the spot for birria craving! Super friendly staff. Food was ready pretty quickly. Parked right outside. Clean interior. Recommend trying!! Would come back to try other items in the future. Wish I ordered more birria!

Saw this place on SGVEATS fb group and gave it a try. Tried many birria taco places all over LA/ SGV/Santa Ana, heck even Trader Joe's/Costco ones, even made it myself before and this place is the MOST flavorful birria I have ever had! We ordered the sampler and the torta which was ridiculously humongous. They give you lots of meat in their food!! Me and my husband were telling each other " wow this is so flavorful" like 5x during our meal lol!! The owner /worker here is super friendly and you can tell he takes pride in his business wanting to give the best customer service as times are hard right now with inflation and cost of goods etc etc. I also love that they don't cheap out on all the taco fixings!! Some places gives you 1-2 tiny cups of salsa. Not here!! Lots of onion cilantro, radish limes and salsas were provided with our order. A little bit of wait for our food despite placing our order over the phone but that's okay. Atleast we know the food is fresh and piping hot!
