The birria tostada was crispy and the meat was tender and flavorful. The tostada just kept falling apart so it was hard to eat all together. The taco truck was located right outside of Las Americas outlets and we picked this truck because everyone was eating outside of it!! Now, I know why!! It was the best truck there and the birria tostada did not disappoint.

Amazing!Best birria I've had so far. The meat was tender and so flavorful, consume was delicious. I tried the quesabirria maiz and harina, got a side of consume, and it was perfection. Opened it up, squeezed some lime, and dipped it into the consume. I'm so happy my coworker recommended this spot.The inside was clean. The cashier was friendly. I definitely plan on coming back here again, and I would definitely recommend this spot. The birria was beef, too, if that matters to anyone.

It's been all about Birria Tacos for me. Came across this truck outside the Americas Outlets in San Ysidro. I'm still new to the birria craze so I asked the cashier what was best to dip in the consome ( a delicious broth from the birria). She was very patient and suggested the birria tacos alone. Ordered 4 for myself to go and everything was packed neatly. 4 tacos with garnishes half dipped in sauce and the other half dry. I usually have wet tacos, but honestly the dry tortillas was so good when you dip it into the consume! The red salsa was fire and so good. The radish and lime gave it a good touch. My meal was so good it didn't make it home. I'll be coming back this week for more tacos and try the quesabirria!

Best birria hands down I love it. And their salsa is bomb. I usually get the tacos and a side of consome. It's more than enough food

First time here , in the neighborhood and hungry . I don't know the menu so Idk what to order . The digital menu is absolutely terrible . It switches every 5-10 seconds to the next menu items not giving you the opportunity to read it . I was in the mood for a Chile relleno but I wasn't sure if they were made fresh or how long ago they had been prepared. What I'm accustomed to is the egg battered chile stuffed with a load of cheese inside . I ordered a chile relleno with birria which was on the menu but I'd never eaten here before so I didn't know what to expect and or if their meat is fatty or flavorful. I decided on a plain Chile relleno taco . I was excited and waited in anticipation to eat it . I opened the well packaged chile relleno taco and was shocked to see just a green chile a large one at it, with some cheese and tons of onions !! Totally not what I expected , the Chile was not seasoned at all and I wish they put more cheese . Had I know this is what I was getting I would have gotten the Chile relleno with the birria . Especially since I paid for it , they didn't even adjust the price being that I asked for no meat . The tortilla was toasty and flavorful. The red salsa they included really made a difference in the flavor of the Chile . I enjoyed it after all , thanks to the hot sauce included !

This place was rude to me as soon as I ordered. I waited for 45 mins and watched them serve other who ordered after me before me and when I asked them why they said they lost the receipt. I will never come here again

This place is alright.. But I had higher expectations.. the staff didn't honor the check in promo(25% off), I ordered the Cruda box, which includes 20 tacos. When I received the order, I wasn't given any consome, and believe me, half these dry @ss tacos needed it! I probably won't come back.

They were good back then and after I went yesterday totally different experience the tacos were small and over priced and the birria didn't taste so good I used to ce to this place a lot if you want bigger and better tacos de birria go to a food truck in main St Chula Vista those are dank and the same price

Family approved !! We tried them out at the swap meet. We loved it so much that we went to their National city location for more during the week. We love your birria! Thanks for making good food!

Hidden gem for sure I went looking for tacos de birria that was semi close to my home. Decided I would check this spot out. I have only eaten here once to sit in.I typically order to go. They never pick up the phone so don't bother trying to call it in before plus side is the times Ive been here its not super packed. The tacos are packed with flavor and the salsa is spicy. For the most part there isnt a lot of fat in it. I will say for the price they are super small from other places Ive ordered I only come here when I wanna stay close to home. They definitely need to work on there customer service skills again even as a to go order there snappy and or kinda give you the feeling that your bothering them or the impressions I've gone but nothing crazy where I don't just brush it off because its a few minutes conversation. Overall good but slightly pricy.

Was there on 12/10 for my second visit, again they did not disapoint. They pack their tacos with lots of meat and is flavorful. Was not greasy. I think its a hidden gem

The Birria and consome were very good and flavorful...So, I would definitely come back to eat... however the service was poor- maybe the staff were new or just didn't bring their A game. It wasn't busy so no excuse for that. Their card machine didn't work (not advised before we ordered and no sign posted), so we had to get cash from 7-11; we ordered the crudo box (15 tacos, $38) and it arrived to our table with no garnishes and were not provided with any until we asked for it. Still, we only received limes, radishes, and salsa-Not given onions or cilantro. The bottled salsa on table is very good and spicy. We had to ask for the rest of the items ordered (consomes) since they were not brought to us before or when the tacos arrived. Hopefully, they're more organized next time we go...

Delicious authentic tacos!!! Flavors, quality, and price were all on point! A little hidden gem that we've stumbled on for when you just want real tacos!
