Birrieria Apatzingan - Seat view of the ordering station - Mexican Near Me - Pacoima, California

Birrieria Apatzingan is a true hidden gem. I ordered the caldo de res, and let me tell you--it was absolutely delicious. It came paired with handmade tortillas that took it to another level. My Husband ordered the birria quesadillas and really enjoyed them as well. This spot is definitely a hole in the wall, but it is 100% worth the wait. It's cozy, comforting, and truly reminds me of my grandma's home cooking. The service was lovely and made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a spot to enjoy quality, authentic Mexican food, I highly recommend checking this place out. Support local--you won't be disappointed. read more

This is definitely your place for some authentic Mexican food, fresh hand made tortillas, tasty salsa & super tender birria! I had a hangover, so of course this place was the cure...I ordered the consomé & birria tacos and hubby ordered the chilaquiles... both delicious!! This is a very tiny restaurant, so you will most likely have a bit of a wait on the weekend since that's when I've been here and it's always packed. But, that shows how much people enjoy this lil gem. I usually order to-go, they do give you a lil paging device to alert you when your order is ready, so you can go wait in your car so your not in the way and just a heads up, they have only taken cash the past times I've been there. The lady at the register is very friendly despite how ridiculously busy she is! They have a wide variety of dishes to try, next time I'll try their menudo. You also have a great choice of fresh made juices and aguas frescas to go with your meal. This spot will not disappoint!!! Show some support Yelpers!! Give this place a shot, your stomach will thank you! read more

The birria was absolutely delicious--rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. It is a little on the pricey side, but I'm happy to support a small business in my neighborhood, especially when the quality is there. Definitely worth trying if you're craving good birria. read more

They carry both goat and beef birria. It was really good. I did have a little trouble finding the place. But good parking.

Delicioso! I have been coming to Birrieria Apatzingan for over 15 years. I cannot get enough. The warmth the service and food . I love the Birria de chivo combination or just tacos, all the dishes here are a must try. Thank you Birrieria apatzingan for existing. read more

This place was a 10-10!! I had to go to La to do a quick run and I seen this was a hotspot ! We'll let me tell you the birria plate which idk why it didn't post when I posted a picture of it but it was so good and the ceviche tostada also good they only accept cash just a heads up ! The service was a 10/10 as well it's a small spot max maybe 20-30 people can fit in there maybe less but overall I would definitely come back here again ! read more

The best birria by far. Highly recommend, friendly service & a clean ambiance. I've been a client for over 10 years & the service hasn't changed at all. read more

I called, right away a girl said what do you want and then I was like wtf I told her I wanted 12 tacos and she immediately said OK bye I was able to say no no I was still gonna order more and when I was telling her my order, she was like ugh ok and when I wanted stuff separately she said no and we decided to hang up. She called us back telling us oh the phone probably cut off. We told her we hung up. and she said OK bye. Horrible customer service. From that girl read more

Their birria is delicious and fresh. And their tortillas are handmade with the delicious masa flavors. I recommend to take your family or even to order ahead of time to take home. They are quick and efficient. It is cash only. So remember to bring cash. read more

Omg!!! This place it is the best. Specially if you are looking for a mom birria cooking. This is a hole on the wall but the best no joke! I am used to having it from my family from Zacatecas and this is it. Home made tortillas you can smell the maiz amarillo. We order two large birria, arroz y frijoles. So the arroz and frijoles are delicious great taste. I really recommend this. We drove from West LA as our family told us about this place and we will be back! read more

It's not traditional like they claim... they claim to be Michoacan style food but it was BAD! I should of noticed by the emptiness in the restaurant that it wasn't going to be good read more

Small little restaurant in the corner of a liquor store, if you're not paying attention you'll miss it. I was looking for a place cause I was hungover and needed something to pick me up and this place did not disappoint! This is homemade your mom and tias in the kitchen making the best birria! It was delicious! Cash only if you don't have any the liquor has an atm machine, service took a little while but it was worth the wait. I'm definitely coming back to try something different. read more

Cash only, pretty sloppy and messy inside. Soft shell tacos only, no crunchy tacos. If my Spanish wasn't so bad then maybe I might have been in better shape when ordering, but the service was friendly. I came in for a quick bite to-go. The four pieces Tacos Dorados platter gives a choice of either potato or chicken. They would not do half and half. Regardless, they were good, as were the three Soft Tacos ordered - Carne Asada, Chicken and Birria. The green salsa was also very flavorful and very good. Over all, not a bad lunch. read more

Birrieria Apatzingan - Chile rojo - Mexican Near Me - Pacoima, California

This has been my go to place for many many many years .. Maybe 2-3 times per month . My whole family loves it here ... I haven't been here in a while due to covid but today I came back with my mother and I am really sad and disappointed... Waitress is super rude .. Portions shrunk and prices went up. My go to is morisqueta. The plate significantly shrunk to half of what it used to be. The large pozole which my mother always orders when it's cold is now the small plate. Food is not as great as it used to be either .. My father told me about this a few months ago but I didn't listen and wanted to see for my self . He had the same complaint about the price and portion . I don't mind the price upcharge if the portions were still the same... but I definitely do mind if my portions are smaller.. I won't be back just due to that and I will definitely let all my friends and family know.. I'm a huge supporter of Latino businesses but when they are great. read more

This pace was good; it felt like I was eating at my mom's. Heads up that this place is cash only.

Small pops & mom's restaurant serving your typical authentic Michoacan dishes..Good family atmosphere with a warm welcome by the server "Tabo"...Food is delicious but I have to admit their prices have gone up tremendously. We've been coming here for years and it seems we end up paying more and more for the same diabes we always get. We are a family of 4 and we used to soend roughly $40-$55 for 4 plates of food, now those same playes are costing us anywhere between $70-100. Food is delicious but the prices is was keeping us from going often. read more

The menudo it's self was really good. I wish they will include hominy but I do get it that they serve it in the authentic form. The only reason I gave it a 4 stars it's because prices are not display- I order menudo to go but I wanted a small plate. They charge me $17 for a container and I was so shocked because I was looking for a small size. It was so awkward! I think sizes and prices should be update it! read more

Las tortillas recién hechas con el consomé de chivo es una de las cosas que se extraña más de California. El lugar está chiquito pero siempre salíamos llenos y felices de ahí. El servicio espectacular siempre. read more

So I will start off my stating the tortillas and food were good (not great). However, the prices of the food were a bit high. But I understand. The price of everything has gone up. However, charging $7 for an agua is absolutely ridiculously insane. There are no prices on their menu so I would definitely ask prices before ordering especially on the drinks!!! read more

i couldn't find it at first but when I found it and I parked I was in heaven. The heavy aromas of spices filled the restaurant and I knew I was in the right spot at the wrong time. Breakfast time its packed!! This place has 2 small dining areas and if you plan on eating here, expect to wait a good 25 mins to 30 mins in the morning. They serve hand made tortillas and the birria is delicious. I've only had birria in two locations of Mexico. Tijuana & Sinaloa... & this place is the bomb.com! Truly a gem. read more

Good food, but it is pricey. They also don't display prices on their menu. I don't recommend if you're on a budget.
