Amazing authentic Tijuana street food! We had their taco Tuesday special (3 street tacos for $5.99) and the Birria fries with... Jarritos to drink. They were packed for taco Tuesday and we could soon see why. Everything was so delicious we ate every lastBirria soaked bite. This shop is chef-owned and family-run and have just started catering events with their own food truck.Check them out next time you?re in Golden Hill! Read more

Very good tacos and flavorful! But the Birria Ramen was a little bland for my taste but overall not bad for the price!

Hole in the wall eatery with some legit Mexican food. The birria was excellent and is done 'TJ' style. Good salsa too. Coke is a... glass bottle just adds to the real Mexico feel. Read more

A small corner ?restaurant?, I would even consider this street food. They only sell birria here and this is exactly why it?s my... favorite place to get birria in San Diego. The price is cheaper compared to other birria restaurants but it?s definitely notlacking in flavor. Tacos are crunchy, cheesy, and meaty. Consommé comes in good portion and very flavorful. If you order ramenbirria, you will get a larger portion of consommé. ?It?s everything you want from a birria place?. Read more

This taco place had amazing Burris tacos. The beef is cooked and marinated for 4+ hours in broth before being served to you. The... broth is also given ($1.99)/ea. to have with your tacos and it was amazing. It was very flavorful and a touch spicy. The onlydownside I had with that tacos was that one side of them was kind of soggy possibly from the broth and beef sitting in them.Other than that, they were very tasty and really good. Read more

First time coming here and I'll definitely be back. I got their burrito and it was soooo good. The outside of the burrito was... toasted, the rice and birria inside was so flavorful. Red chili sauce was tasty, a bit spicy. They gave us habanero marinatedred onions on the side. Those were good. The rest of the menu looks so good. Can't wait to try other items! Read more

Didn't expect much from a food truck, however, the service was quick, and food was amazing. I personally like how the condiments... they give you, when added to the ramen, creates its own consomme. I'll have to go back to sample the rest of the menu Read more

I was craving tacos and decided to try this place. It was fantastic! Both tacos I tried were fresh and very tasty. The staff was... super friendly and attentive. They brought me napkins, salsa and cutlery was soon as they noticed I was eating on the outdoorpatio setup. I?ll for sure be visiting this place again. All the food I saw other orders looked equally as good. Greatneighborhood spot to hit for a quick bite if your in the area. Read more
