Birria Landia - some of the best tacos in NYC. I'm so proud to have grown up just a neighborhood away from their original location, Jackson Heights. What a testament to the amazing food that comes out of Queens, because now they have several locations including on the UWS and in Downtown Flushing of all places! The tacos - the meat is from the excellent and delicious birria they made, and the tortillas are grilled with the birria on them. Get a cup of consomme to dip the tacos into beacuse this is the way. So delicious. So good. As much as LA has on us on tacos in general, Birria Landia is one of the places that lets us hold our own in the great taco competition, at least for a while. Do yourself a favor and try these tacos if you haven't already. SO Good and one of the best bites I had the year I tried them. I've been back a few times since, most recently last week!

I ordered through Uber Eats -- 2 consomés and 3 orders of beef birria

Birria-Landia -- Roosevelt Ave & 78th St, Jackson Heights, NY I ordered through Uber Eats -- 2 consomés and 3 orders of beef birria -- and wow, this place completely blew me away. The food was incredibly flavorful, rich, and perfectly seasoned. Hands down, the best birria I've ever had -- 10 out of 10! What makes it even better is that it's from a food truck. I honestly didn't expect it to taste this good, but every bite was amazing. You can tell they take pride in their food. I'll definitely be ordering again!

So so so yummy!! Best Birria tacos i've ever had! The meat was so tender and perfectly cooked. I will be craving these tacos until i'm back. They were a bit busy, but regardless it was well worth the wait. So glad I stopped by.

I've lost count of how many times I've returned to Birria-Landia. Let's just say I'm a certified birria addict thanks to this magical food cart. Out of all the times I've ordered here (seriously, 100% of the time but I'll say 99% justttt to be safe), nothing has ever gone wrong. They have a straightforward menu with just four dishes (excluding drinks), and they've absolutely perfected each one: consomé ($4.5 for a small, $6 for a large), tacos ($3.5), mulita cheese quesadilla ($4.5), and tostadas ($3.5). Note: If you order online, it's an extra $1 for each. I always go for the two mulita cheese quesadillas - can't resist that cheesy goodness (absolute self-destruction for someone whose lactose intolerant but it's so good). My sister, on the other hand, swears by their tostadas, which she claims are a fuller (and more flavorful) version of their tacos. And she has a point; tostadas are typically served with a crisp tortilla that holds up better to toppings, giving you more crunch and flavor in every bite. Of course, we pair this with their irresistible (large, always!) consomé - savory, homey, and not too salty. I'm fully convinced that simplicity is their strength, and they've nailed every item on their menu.

This truck has been next to me for over 6+ years, and I decided to try it for the first time the other day. I was sleeping on it for that many years. I can not believe my tastebuds waited that long! When I tell you, these are the BEST birria tacos ever. The tortillas weren't soggy, but crispy with the consumé soaked in it. The meat was so tender and juicy and had nice bits of onions and parsley in every bite. The consumé too was heaven, like you can tell they cooked this the whole day because the beef broth really shined through and the flavor was just *chefs kiss*. I was addicted to these tacos and we had to stop ourselves from eating!

Excellent food. My niece told me about this place. Since she lives around there, she keeps talking about it every time she comes to visit. This time, I was in her area, so I decided to pick up an order to go. We had tacos, soup, and Tastade.. They are just awesome, as she mentioned. I'm glad that we picked it up. I did not get to see imside of the truck since I was driving, and there was hardly any parking, so I had to stay in the car. But truck looks nice and clean.

Maybe I'm spoiled from California, but I feel like New York street food in general really doesn't compare to that of California's. I'm not quite sure what's the difference between tacos and birria tacos, but the tacos were pretty good. They double-shelled it to encapsulate all the flavors and stews, which definitely worked for its purpose but I felt like it became a little-bit too carby for me. The meat was incredibly tender and flavorful, but the winner was definitely the pickled onions. Haha, I'm not sure why but I was obsessed with their pickled onions, I think it's probably one of the best ones I've ever had. Overall, not too sure if this place is mind-blowing per say, but I'm really glad I got to try it out. By the way, it's around $3.50 a taco which I wouldn't say is incredibly affordable but I guess it is famous.

Birria Tacos ($3.50 each)
Katie-Ann F.

Came on a Friday evening, and there was no line. At $3.50 a taco, we got one per person, and they came out relatively quickly. It came with hot sauce and pickled onions in separate containers as well. Each birria taco encompassed 2 shells filled with a good amount of beef, onions, cilantro, and their sauce. The lime also adds the necessary acidity and freshness to cut the heaviness of the meat. The tacos taste like what you would expect them to--hearty, stewed, tender beef that melts in your mouth. It was good but it wasn't hot and lacked a certain flavor. Perhaps the consumé would've added an extra complexity to the flavors. Overall, it was a good experience! I probably wouldn't wait a super long line for them, but I would still recommend trying it out if you happen to pass by!

Mulita (Cheese Quesadilla)

love this place!! delicious tacos full of flavor i always get side of consome. quick service clean looking kitchen. one of my favorite malls.

Birria Tacos

To be honest, the birria tacos here did not live up to the hype. I expected more, as many people were waiting in line to eat these tacos. Birria Tacos - First off, I was disappointed that my tacos did not come with the consume to dip it in. Apparently, you have to order it on the side which I feel is not standard when you are ordering birria tacos. The meat inside the taco was juicy and flavorful, but it wasn't anything special. I don't know what particularly stands out with these tacos versus other birria tacos. Overall, I wouldn't particularly recommend Birria-Landia, but it wasn't bad either!

I live literally down the down from this truck and I love how convenient it is for me to just walk there. Line some times can be long but it moves fast . That's the best birria taco you will ever have in nyc . I tried everything they have on the menu and they were all super delicious . The meat and the spice they use and the sauces they all just go together. If you get tacos from there make sure you get their soup too !

Is it's halal?

No I called and confirmed they are not halal

Is it still only cash or are they accepting card now?

They accepted most all debit and credit cardw

If I go there at opening time at 5pm, is there already a line and how long typically?

Depends on the day. Weekend you wait. I usually go week days much easier but worth it

Is the meat all beef or is there chicken as well?

Just beef.

What days are the best to go if you don't wanna wait that long ? Or is it always packed?

This is my personal experience. You will end up waiting. The demand for their food is still very high.… 

Does anyone know what the parking situation is like around this area??? I've never been and would love to try some tacos but I'm unsure if there is parking.

You'll find parking but it may take a while to find it and you may have to do some walking after you find it. The tacos are worth it though.

How long is the wait to pick up after ordering by phone? Is there a separate line to pick up an order?

It depends on the time of day. It could be 10-30 minutes and there is a line to order and given a number. When your number is called you pick up your order. It's worth the wait!

Do they take big orders?

Yes they do

Is the 1-2hr wait just to get online to place an order? or can i place the order and come back later to pick up?

They move pretty quick once you order. It only takes about 5 mins once the order is placed.

How long is the wait if the line goes down to the corner of the block?

2 hours

Does the consommé have pork?

Beef only

What time does this place start 2PM or 5PM on fridays?

They are opening at 5 every day, for now.

Is everything on this truck spicy?

No, I dont even think they have spicy sauces to take

What time do they open - close?

5pm-1am

Is the food halal?

No it is not halal

What is Birria and consome? Is it pork?

Beef and beef broth

Are they operating now a days because of covid19?

Just reopened on Friday!

Is it halal? Do they use halal meats? This would open up business to the Muslim market in the area who only consume halal meats. I'm also personally dying to try this as I can't find this anywhere else.

Unfortunately I don't believe they use halal meats.

Do they serve chicken? And does anyone know what is in the consume? (Meat wise)

This particular spot only has beef birria. Everything is beef. consomé is made of beef, Mexican chiles, tomatillos, plum tomatoes, garlic, onion and other herbs. I'm not saying these are their exact ingredients but these ingredients are typically in…

All their locations have pretty good ratings so I can't really go wrong. Came around 11am on a weekend and it was busy but there were tables available. The tables are arranged pretty strategically to fit as many as possible, which isn't the best for comfort. The service is nice here. The menu is in Spanish but they do have an English menu if you scan a QR code. I ordered the craken taco, costra taco, verde aguachile mixtos, a half dozen grilled shrimps, a la exotica, and guac with fried octopus. Everything was delicious! This place did not disappoint. Although, next time I'd probably skip the Craken taco and verde aguachile even though these two are a top recommendation. My favorite dish was probably the grilled shrimp. The way they grill it really brings out the sweetness and flavor of the shrimp. I personally enjoyed the la exotica more than the aguachile. The guac was also really good and the fried octopus was a good addition. I will definitely go to their other locations. This is a must try for seafood lovers.

So this place is like all the hype is about it…read more Very good service Very clean The food is different and very quick , tasty and leaves you wanting more . Position are a bit small for a whole in the wall like this and prices are high especially on the tacos but that's because the quality seems really good and fresh and effort put into it. I will definitely try to come back And come early no reservations have to wait in lines cold or warm you will have to. Maybe they should open another spot or expand but that's their business .

I asked for the check with the server apologizing, I said it's ok but the restaurant should at lest comp the my girlfriend her one cocktail . But that didn't even happen.. The food looked great as far as I could tell , owner was sitting at the front of the Restaurant, didn't ask tables at anytime if customers are happy with their food and service. I don't get it I he noticed me sitting there with an empty table and a coke . I don't think Food or Location is the problem, it's missing customer service, and wait staff should be trained properly. My food is still in the fridge , lost my desire to try . Place wasn't even busy . I am giving 3 stars just for the chef , wasn't her fault. Table service and management 0 stars .

It ended up being the best decision we made all night. Emily, our server, was nice, attentive, and took great care of us. The food was just as fresh and delicious as at the taco stand at the QNM. The purple corn tortillas were incredible, the chicken was hot, juicy, and flavorful, the steak was delicious, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the mushroom taco. The restaurant has a fun, authentic Mexican vibe with colorful décor, a great playlist that really adds to the atmosphere, and it's honestly a cute spot if you want to snap a few photos.

Needless to say, it did not work & rubbery cheese in soup is not it. I thought that maybe the soup from this place was a one off so I also ordered a couple tamales from here on a separate occasion as well. Unfortunately it was not a one off as the tamales were super dry & almost inedible because of that. I won't be returning back. Tamales super dry
