Went with a group of friends for Easter Brunch. This restaurant had a “soft opening” for their Brunch Menu. Walking in this place, it looks like an Asian restaurant, but they definitely serve Mexican dishes. You do have to order up front and they bring your food to you. There was a problem with a couple orders, but they did fix it right away. One of my friends asked for A-1 sauce, but it seemed like they had one bottle for the entire restaurant. They do have high-chairs for the kids and the restrooms were clean.

Came in on the 4th of July and was pleasantly surprised. The look of the place is like a run down cafeteria but the food however is lovely, I had a birria burrito and the flavour was lovely. It was a very large portion and not a meal that was a clean eat with the dipping sauce. It’s well with a visit for what feels much more like authentic Mexican than the usual American tex mex.

Came out to PG to run an errand and saw this and decided to try it out. Was not disappointed with the Cheesy QuesaBirria Tacos. Good flavor and perfectly cooked. The consomé on the other hand was a bit more water-y than I am used to. But that’s just my preference. We also ordered a variety of there Street Tacos. Chicken & Carnitas 0/10. Al Pastor 3/10. I wouldn’t order them again, they lacked flavor and I felt that the meat was dry for the carnitas. The Red Salsa pairs well with the Birria. 3 Stars for Birria and Red Salsa. $25 for 7 tacos. 2 of them being Birria Tacos. Not bad.

I’ve visited a few times and 100% the quesabirria tacos are the best thing on the menu, they never disappoint (they are definitely a 5 star item). I have tried other things (street tacos, torta, burritos) and they don’t compare at all to the quesabirria tacos. The burritos have been good and it is a fun experience that they can add red hot Cheetos into the burrito for an extra crunch and kick. Honestly speaking, however, the torta was just okay and the street tacos were average as well. There are other fun things on the menu that sound good so we’ll definitely have to come back to try more things.

My wife and I discovered this place in September, 2022, and we found ourselves a gem!

Finally an authentic place for Mexican food! You must try this place if your are looking for authenticity. Their quesobirria tacos are delicious. Their hot cheetoh Birria Quesadilla is really good. You must also try their strawberry horchata. I can’t wait to see what new dishes they add. I would love to see them make a quesobirria pizza with hot cheetos like I’ve seen other places do.

Amazing food and amazing customer service! Quick and easy to request a catering pick up. Did this for my daughters birthday, a very small get together. Ordered soft Birria and carne asada tacos with rice and beans, salsas, etc. Will definitely order again☺️

Birria was good, wallpaper was better. Delighted by the birria ramen, but it needs 1-2 minutes in the microwave before it comes out, the noodles just don’t cook enough.

The Birrieria cheesy taco is delicious! There are also more options on the actual menu than the online menu – including yummy chicken quesadillas.

Formerly a Chinese restaurant, the decor has not been updated to reflect the new cuisine. This is basically a take-out restaurant that grudgingly accepts a few dine-in customers. All orders are placed at the counter in the front of the restaurant.
