I'd been wanting to try some birria tacos for awhile but the selections in Wilmington are few and far in between. Aye Toro... Tacos and Tequila opened not too long ago and had been on my radar for some time so I stopped in for lunch the other day to tryout their hyped, quesabirria taco trio. FOOD: Quesabirria Taco Trio with consomme, avocado "whip" and a side of Spanish rice. The tacos were completely legit with Aye Toro using housemade white corn tortillas (super thin) infused with golden, blissfulcheese, then packed with fresh barbacoa, cilantro, onion and more melted cheese inside. These things may have very well givenme cardiac arrest at any time but it was worth it. I took bites with and without dipping them in the consomme. The consommewas well balanced and when I asked how it was made, I was informed that the drippings from the freshly-cooked meat were used asthe base with more added onion, cilantro and spices, making it a perfect Mexican au jus to dip these tacos in. Excellentflavors, perfect portion size for lunch and a nice presentation made these quesabirria tacos the star. These met myexpectations. The side of rice I ordered, looked great but fell short. There was so much salt in this batch of rice that Itook 2 bites and set it aside. At first, I thought maybe it was the consomme I was tasting the overabundance of salt in, butquickly realized it was the rice. In my opinion, it was not edible. SCORE: 3.9 STARS!! SERVICE: When I walked in to beseated, I waiting very little time to be seated. Since I was the only one dining in, I asked if I could just sit at the bar andenjoy my meal. They accommodated and guided me to the corner section of the bar where I was greeted promptly. After placing myorder, my food arrived about 12 mins afterward. Service was friendly, prompt and done with smiles. I also had the pleasure ofmeeting Pedro, GM of this location, and chatted with him about the place and the food for about 10 mins. When P Read more

Adrian was our server and he was excellent. The margaritas are big and very delicious. The two items we had were huge and very... nicely cooked. The outdoor seating area was very nice especially during the great days we have in Wilmington during the fallseason. We had so much food we ended up bringing some home and enjoyed eating it the next day. Read more
