To me it’s a hidden gem, I had the pastor torta and two pastor tacos and they are a must try, the spice of the marinade and the pineapple that’s mixed in it is amazing.

Food was decent. Ordered steak torta, wasn’t over or under cooked, just a little on the salty side. Fries were incredible. Nice little gem for some decent food.

Some of the best tacos I’ve had! The steak and al pastor tacos are out of this world. Definitely one of our favorite spots now. Their home made chips that come with the guac are also worth mentioning! If you are looking for great tacos, this should be a spot you try!

These were the best Birria tacos I’ve had thus far. I highly recommend trying them!!! The meat was tender and soft, and the consome was on point.

Food is delicious. I absolutely love the grilled chicken it reminds me of my home town. The Birria tacos are so authenticly prepared and not to spicy. The service is fast. The place is small but just learned they recently opened a bigger place on Briggs and Rt 6. Totally recommend. Sorry I have no pictures I was so hungry I forgot to take pictures

I was so excited to try queca birria tacos and they did not disappoint so delicious, chips were amazing and my mom won’t stop raving about the guacamole. The salsa was spicy but not my favorite. Other than that it was a fantastic experience. Also our waitress was really helpful and nice.

I attempted to order food from them so I called to see if they used oil that contains soy and I asked for someone that spoke English and was put on hold. After about 5 minutes I was hung up on. I called back and I mentioned that I was just hung up on and asked the question about the soy and she hung up on me again. I will gladly spend my money elsewhere.

Very clean and tasty place. Super fast service. Homemade chips and salsa may be my new favorite…the house made salsa has a tang to it and is thick and not watered down. So far, the best Mexican in Joliet.

We drove over 30 minutes just to try their beef birria quesa-taco’s with Consomé and they did NOT disappoint!!! They were absolutely amazing!! I got two of those and one chorizo taco. My husband got their chicken burrito and like it and our son got a chicken quesadilla which he loved! If you like a good spice, I suggest trying their 911 salsa, but every other salsa that they bring out to you is amazing as well!! I wish I would have gotten some chips and salsa! Our waitress was absolutely sweet and on top of service as well! Would absolutely recommend this place and will be back for more birria’s!!
