Birrieria y Tacos de Alex Tijuana Style

The food is phenomenal, hands down the best Birria I've had in Albuquerque without question. We shared 4 street tacos with rice and beans and a quesadilla. We ended up taking the quesadilla home because they pile plates with so much food. The atmosphere is your basic small independently owned taco spot, red, yellow and green painted walls with a TV playing novelas.
The downside of our meal was that we were over charged by 20 dollars. Admittedly I was so excited about the food that I didn't pay attention to the price (and the obvious language barrier), I simply swiped my card and didn't realize the overcharge til I recieved my email statement. The taco plate is listed at $16 and the quesadilla at $14, we also got a bottle of coke at $4 for a total of $34 and we were charged $56. Next time I will definitely pay attention at check out. That said, I will definitely be going back for more of their amazing food!

After eating taco de Alex you will not want to eat anyone’s birras they fill there tacos with enough meat and cheese and it’s so so good I’ve eaten plenty of different birras and no one makes them the way you do ….. please don’t change the way you make your food and the birra pizza is the bomb if you have not tried them please do so you won’t regret it I made a big mistake I was hungry and they closed by 20 minutes so went to Los tacos del ray because Alex was closed 😢ray tacos don’t got nothing on Alex birras taco….. ray taco don’t have much filling VERSUS Alex tacos omg I’ll never go anywhere else ALEX IS 100% the best ….. I definitely recommend this I will never go eat anyone’s birras haha I hope my review get me a free meal lol I’m Kidding also the girls that work in the front are very kind and respectful thank you lady’s …..oh I seen another review about the price but the food is plenty so he does not cheat you out of the quality and quantity of filling in the food …. He is not shy to stuff the tacos to me that’s worth it thank you ALEX

The barbacoa street tacos were truly a wonderful experience life changing. Thank you for such an amazing experience.

truly some of the best birria i have had to this day! service is fantastic, but the food is even BETTER. we got a little bit of everything and not only was it perfectly priced for serving, it was so delicious that i will be thinking about it for weeks to come. i WILL be back!

Nice little place. The food was authentic and flavorful. Both the consomé and the tacos were delicious. The place was clean. Lunch came out to about $16 with tax, which is a tad pricey. All the customers there at the time were Mexicans, so I think that’s a good sign.

Food was good, but BEWARE this restaurant scams. The total of our food at the restaurant was only $62 and change. $142 ended up getting charged to the card. Another review under this restaurant claims the same thing. I wish I would have seen that review beforehand.

Food was horrible , got charged 140$ plus tax for 24 tacos that say they are only 3.25 on the menu and we ordered tacos only no add ons , that would equal out to 78$ , we asked for a refund when we seen the price when we got to the restaurant they refused we took the card out before even putting the pin and it still charged horrible customer service horrible food all around

Huevos Rancheros was fire. Different from New Mexico style. Just as delicious. Wasn’t a fan of the beans personally.I’d recommend this place to friends and family.
