The birria tacos & consomé were good but lacked a bit of seasoning/ flavor. Iv had birria tacos at other places where the tacos were so much more flavorful! Also, my whole meal cost 16$ & all I got was the birria tacos + small horchata which to me was a bit pricey considering that’s all I got.

So good. Enjoyed everything we ordered including the chips & salsa. Couldn’t get enough of the agua de piña y los chilaquiles verde. Our server Areli was the best.
