Nice and warm atmosphere. More of a sit down mexican restaurant than small taqueria.

The meat was bland and had zero flavor (carne asada taco and super burrito)!! The beans and rice were good though. Don’t waste the money on the homemade tacos. Nothing special!!

I came here three times in a week because the birria was so good. The first time was on a Sunday afternoon, when my husband got a birria burrito for himself. We took it to go, and when we got it home and I tried a bite I instantly regretted not getting any food, too. It was a delicious burrito and the birria was so flavorful, tender, and juicy. I then went back mid-week and ate lunch by myself in the restaurant. I was the only person inside so my food came out really fast. I got the birria super burrito and was shocked by how significantly larger it was than the regular burrito my husband ordered. I was barely able to get through it. Absolutely delicious, but definitely required a fork and knife at a certain point because it was way too hot and messy to hold. I also got an horchata and a Mexican Coke; the horchata was pretty bland and I wouldn't get it again, so it was a good thing I also had the Mexican Coke to wash everything down. The waitress was the same woman who helped us on Sunday. She wasn't rude but also wasn't particularly welcoming -- very transactional. I thought it was odd that the other waitress "working" with her was sitting at a table talking with a woman she knew the ENTIRE time I was eating, even through phone calls and customers coming in for to-go orders. The waitress who helped me was juggling refilling to-go cups of salsa while answering the phone, ringing people up, and communicating with the kitchen. That Saturday, my husband and I went back to eat lunch in the restaurant and it was a total night and day experience from the laid back lunch I had just a couple days before. The restaurant was a total mess, clearly the aftermath of the breakfast and lunch rush, and in a state that made me not want to eat there. Crushed chips were all over the floor along with an empty Coke can and dirty napkins here and there. There were only a couple of empty tables, on the opposite side of the restaurant from where I ate lunch the first time, and both were filthy. We chose one and wiped it down ourselves; this is also when I noticed what poor shape the booth seating is in. The pleather is all torn and shredded in many spots and looks awful. These guys clearly did little to nothing to renovate when they moved in after Cre-Asian left, as the decor seems to be a holdover from the old restaurant, and they're doing nothing to upkeep the place. Even the old bar area seems to just be used as storage now. A total waste of space that looks run down and sad. The fact that these guys haven't even bothered to invest in a real sign in all the years they've been here now, and just have their old banner hanging over the old Cre-Asian sign, speaks volumes as to how much importance they put on investing in both their restaurant and community. I got the handmade birria tacos, one soft and one crispy, both with cheese. The consommé doesn't come with the tacos and is an extra cost, which is kind of lame. My husband got the quesabirria taco, which is huge. It's essentially just an oversized birria taco. The tacos were absolutely delicious and I would absolutely get them again. I preferred the soft taco because their handmade corn tortillas are fantastic. But I did think it was weird that I was given chips as soon as I was seated for lunch when I came by myself, but on this day we didn't get any chips until we ordered guacamole. Speaking of the guacamole, it wasn't great -- way too heavy on the lime, which made for a totally one-dimensional flavor profile. The same waitress from the last two visits was working again, but this time she was significantly less friendly (not that she was necessarily a ray of sunshine the other times). She was a little short with my husband when he was asking the difference between their quesabirria and birria tacos with cheese (which is rich given there's no difference at all except for the size and the option to get homemade tortillas with the smaller tacos). This place is a to-go-only place for me moving forward, and I still haven't fi

No customers there, but no service. Wouldn't know about the food. Never got any... They were busy on the phone. I guess that's more important to them than the potential customers standing right in front of them.

The best carne asada super burrito, maybe ever! The carne asada was flavorful with big pieces, instead of being the cubed up meh steak from other taquerias. Refried beans on point, rice had a delish garlic flavor. It just all worked together.

THIEVES!!! Before I talk about their food, I must bring up the fact that they rounded up my order for a tip. The total cost was $56.18, and they rounded it up to $62 even. Without my authorization!!! Their burritos are trash at best. Their enchiladas plate is $18 for 2 enchiladas, and they use street taco tortillas for them. Their food is also extremely inconsistent. The food is prepared differently depending on who is working. If you go here to eat, check your bank statement frequently because these people will get you. I could say a lot more but Yelp is known for flagging bad reviews.

one of my favorite places to eat lately. i have picked up and dined inside. food is fresh and yummy. love the birria quesadilla and tacos. you order first and then sit down. there's only been one person serving the couple of times i've been there. but it wasn't that busy so worked out fine. she is really nice. i really like their refried beans and guacamole. can't wait to go and try other stuff.

Very good tasting authentic food. They have Menudo on weekends. They are very friendly in the place is usually full of people either picking up to go orders or eating there. They have a very large Michelada available. I very much enjoy eating here and will return often.

They forgot about my food, until I reminded them, my companions were almost finished, maybe they forgot another person's drink and went to ask if they still wanted it instead of bringing it, the bathrooms were very dirty, a food place must have presentable
