Found this little gem and I cannot be any happier, tried the Noodle Birria and it was perfection, never had anything like it! We will definitely be back for more!

I write this review already anxiously anticipating my return! It's a very casual establishment, relaxed and decorated with lots of Mexican cultural motifs and bright colors. Having recently visited central Mexico, I can say that it definitely evokes a similar feel. Seat yourself upon entering. Beverage options span from Aguas Frescas like Horchata to the classic Jarritos in various flavors and of course, cola drinks. Though no cerveza of any kind- which we found a little odd.Now for the food, I came for one reason and one reason only; Quesabirria tacos, which this place has a combo of 3 with consume for roughly $10. A little steep compared to Mexico lol, but absolutely delicious and perfectly satisfying. My boyfriend ordered 4 birria street tacos with consume as well. The meat was tender, hot, and juicy. The perfect treat after waiting the necessary amount of time to eat following my dentist appointment! This restaurant can consider me it's newest fan.

Stopped here with two of my pens after a soccer game before heading back to Austin. My middle son is a self-proclaimed birria snob and he put this in his top 2. We both enjoyed the quesabirria tacos. My youngest opted for the birria nachos and he liked them as well. Fresh salsas in squeeze bottles also available. I can never get enough of the creamy jalapeño. The waitress was nice. She let me practice my Spanish but was happy to help my sons in English. The restaurant is festively decorated and there's never ending Spanish music videos on TV while you stuff your face. Prices are reasonable for what you get. I hope we can return next time we're in the area!

Who does not love birria?We gave this place a try as the reviews online were raving about it.This mom and pop's shop is friendly, warm and cozy. The menu selection is short which for us is a sign of quality and freshness.We decided to try the quesabirrias combo and the papas locas. They have lamb or beef option for the birria, we went with lamb for both. The quesabirrias are amazing, very flavorful and so crispy.I would not recommend the loaded fries as they were soggy and not very memorable.Overall, it was a great experience and we'll be back!

I was the first person to show skepticism. I did not want to eat there, but my husband told me to give it a chance because the few reviews were awesome. I am so glad I kept an open mind because everything we ordered was phenomenal. The decor and ambiance was very cute. Tables and restrooms were clean. Food came out promptly and the service was kind. I cannot ask for anything better. The waitress was not only taking orders and serving, but she cleaned frequently throughout our stay. The tacos were so flavorful and very tender. Our family will definitely be back.

I have been wanting to bring my husband to a place like this for awhile. I'm vegetarian, so I can't do birria. I had bean and cheese tacos but my husband had the pizza. He RAVED about it. He said it was sooo good. The best meal he's had our WHOLE trip.

Delicious! We work down the road from here and finally added it to our Friday lunch date. We ordered a variety of the menu; pizza, nachos, tacos and egg rolls.The small pizza is HUGE and is enough for a couple people. The flavor was delicious and one of my favorites.The nachos are piled high and we had birria on that as well. Very good and a must try!Birria tacos- sooooo good! My favorite of the day and I make these at home so I'm picky. A must order!Egg rolls were everyone's least favorite but I'm happy we tried them.Service was awesome, she explained the menu to us and everything came out hot and fresh. Do not drive past this place without ordering the menu like we did.

This is definitely the best birria and best Mexican food I have ever had! SO. DANG. GOOD! They have birria everything here! Birria burritos, consome, quesabirria tacos, tortas, and more! Prices are extremely affordable with almost the whole menu sitting at under $12 a plate. The portions are generous and the meat just melts in your mouth. If you dine in, they bring complimentary chips and salsa to your table. The staff are very kind and friendly. Location is on Perrin Beitel Rd near the crossroad Wurzbach Pkwy. It is a small stand alone building painted bright green and orange. The parking is along the back/side of the building. I can't eat any other birria after eating here. This is the only one I want! If I lived in San Antonio, I would probably come once a week. It's that good!
