The food was good but was very annoyed by inconsideration. it was my fiancé’s 40th birthday yesterday and he was dying for some Birria style food so I took him here lastly night. Had a decent time but when it came for him to get his birthday dessert the lady acted clueless while I was trying to be discrete. In which my fiance caught onto. Then as he usually does says no no no that is ok…but bc he can get shy sometimes. It’s his 40th birthday and I wanted to sing him happy birthday. He agreed but then the lady wouldn’t come out with dessert without him showing his ID. I’m 42 years old and NEVER have I been asked for ID when celebrating mine or anyone else’s birthday. What if someone wants to surprise their loved ones? He left his wallet in the car because I was paying for his Birthday meal. He didn’t want to go out to his car bc it is not that easy to park around the restaurant as there is no restaurant parking and the car was all the way down the street. He tried to show her his Facebook where everyone was wishing him a Happy Birthday but she was saying it could be a fake profile. I’m sorry but I’m am in my 40’s he just turned 40, we ordered 3 appetizers and 3 meals between the two of us. I don’t think we are trying to run off with some churros. I was going to purchase it but got disgusted and decided to go somewhere else to finish celebrating. She can believe him without showing ID for alcohol but not that it is his birthday? A little consideration and regard next time for someone celebrating a MILESTONE Birthday.

I feel like the food wasn't good at all.. From the salsa to the enchiladas..

Great food and always ready on point. Highly recommend the churros as they are filled with Carmel!

Food is below average and over priced. Don't waste your time on this place, it's not worth it 🤢

Was lover of this place since old location.
Downhill slide since moving locations.
Didn't tell me no black beans got baked beans in chicken bowl.over cooked steak.messed up 5 orders in a row over 2 weeks. No lime, salsa ECT.
Even with complaint never offered to replace recook food. Usually large orders placed.
City night shift crew.
Big difference in portion size between dine in or take out.

Came here to try the Birria and it was amazing. The tortillas were crispy, it was well filled, and the consommé complimented the Birria very well making a burst of flavor. Will come again for the Birria.

first time ordered the birria tacos w rice and beans and chips ... I was highly disappointed the tacos look better than they are seriously lacking flavor I've made better at home and the rice and beans are not much better have long slimy onions in the beans and the chips were lacking also

Edit: came here again. Ordered a chorizo burrito. Was more satisfied with its flavor than the al pastor tacos. The green sauce it comes with is flavorful and adds the spice the burrito is missing. Definitely a solid option in the area for burritos

Ordered from here for the first time recently. I tried the birria beef tacos. They were pretty average and could have used more authentic toppings like onion and jalapenos to give them more flavor. The birria stew didn't help these much. I may order something else on the menu next time

Food was absolutely amazing! The waitress was very nice! Food came out fast although it wasn't very busy at the time. The only complaint I had was the Raspberry sauce for the Churro I got for dessert was sour tasting, everything else was super flavor full.
