Cashier is a very nice, helpful woman who can easily help you if you aren’t too familiar with what suits your appetite. Overall, I had a really good experience for my first time trying Birrias. Would recommend others to try them, especially if you are sensitive to spicy foods.

I loved every minute! The service, the food, and the ambiance. The esquites are delish, and the birria tacos are to die for. I live in Central jersey and do not mind taking the drive as it’s worth every mile.

Second time here, always tastes great! The flan is a must. We had a great time. I just wish they gave you more consomé. But it was still enough to really enjoy the tacos

We traveled from NYC to try Chofi on recommendation. We are so happy we did. Amazing authentic and delicious food. We pretty much ordered everything! A fiesta for our senses! Better than any we’ve had in NYC. Fairly priced. Friendly staff. Can’t wait to go back. Well done!!!!!

The reviews , ranking and hype is all real for this amazing place! We are so blessed to have a spot like this in Union City! As someone who grew up here and have lived here pretty much my whole life was getting tired of sending out of town friends down to Hoboken New Jersey City for true culinary excellence! But having a spot like this couple blocks from where I live as well as couple of blocks from the youth center that we run is more than just a place to have great food but is a sense of pride! Thanks for all you guys do! – Hope + Future Team

Every time we go here we leave with full bellies and giant grins on our faces. This place is worth traveling to no matter how far you are. The flavor from not only the meat but also the taco shells are incredible. I typically always order the carnes and pollo because you get the best of both worlds. The esquites is the perfect side and if you don’t eat it all at once, perfect for putting on top of your tacos.

Was visiting from Chicago. My cousin & I fell in love with this delicious and quaint little spot. Tacos were on point. Service was above and beyond outstanding. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. Super disappointed that I forgot to go back for a dozen of their delicious homemade corn tortillas. Definitely would go back.

This was my first time coming to this location and also my first time eating birria tacos. I ordered three tacos, one with mozzarella cheese so I could see which one I like better and an order of street corn as an appetizer. It came up to $19.19. Every three tacos come with consome (sauce) to dip your tacos in. I see why this place has five stars, the food and service was good!! This place is cozy and cute, with about three eating tables and a counter with bar stools at the window.. Next time I will dine in to gain the full experience. Good job

Absolutely delicious and always fresh!! You may call ahead but they will just tell you to place your order online … or you can always dine in as they do have a few chairs and tables… The consume is always the best part! I love to sprinkle lime juice on my tacos and sprinkle extra lime juice in the consume! They’re also byob and offer different types of virgin drinks .. I bought myself a michelda and added tequila to it when I got home.. Reasonably priced, the staff is friendly and polite! I think they’re fast and efficient when I ordered my food was ready for pickup ! Will definitely recommend and definitely looking forward to ordering more stuff on their menu!

Best taco spot in America so far. Super friendly staff and food is excellent. Taco shell is corn flour fyi. Birria has perfect flavor. It’s not as thick as I imagined but it was still great. There’s a lot of people so expect a wait and there’s limited seating.
