I saw a friend recently post a ton a food from here and it looked yummy so I decided to give it a try. The tortillas were freshly made! I love corn and they were perfect. The birria ramen was the best I've had in the valley! Love that they have chilli oil salsa. I want to try other menu items next time. Staff was friendly. Cute spot. Front Parking lot is small- prepare for that. I will be back! read more

This isn't based on the food but how we ordered. We went through the website order service. Placed order and arrived 20 minutes later at their location. They said they hadn't looked at the order and it would be another 20 minutes if we wanted to wait which we didn't want to. Called order service to fix, they called the location to confirm story and they said that made the order but we never showed up. We confirmed staffs name before we left and gave them that information. Lied to keep the money... NOT a good look. read more

Was in the mood for some quesabirria tacos and decided to check out this place. Hubby and I both ordered #4- 2 quesabirria tacos with consomme $9.35. I thought the price was really fair and was really looking forward to it. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. As I was waiting, I got some salsa and pickled vegs from their self serve salsa bar which was great. When the food arrived, I was anticipating an umami bomb from the quesadilla tacos but they were disappointing. There was plenty meat but just didn't have the flavor depth and hardly any cheese. Also the tacos weren't crispy at all and the inner tortilla fell apart when I dipped it in the consomme. Service was kind and the ladies working were nice so I'd still give them another try and go back and try something else. read more

Stopped in to get some quesabirria tacos and ordered their #4 which comes with two quesabirria tacos and a consomme. The tacos have a double layer tortilla which made it eat extremely dry and when I dipped it in the consomme it just felt apart. There was like no cheese anywhere either. Unfortunately this would not be my recommendation. read more

Karen has amazing customer service. The ambiance in here is that of a Mexican restaurant at a Mercado. Nice cozy energy. The food is delicious, the tacos and potato were on point. The sopes are also delicious. Steak is well cooked, and seasoned. They have their own parking. Restrooms, aguas frescas and Mexican sodas. Enough parking next to a neveria (Mexican ice cream parlor). read more

Birrieria Don Jose - Lunch time. - Mexican Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I was disappointed with the food at Birrieria Don Jose. My husband and I have been looking for a nearby taco spot that we would like to frequent, but unfortunately we do not plan to go back here. The quesabirria was okay, but not great. The consume looked somewhat brown and murky vs the red color that I would expect. The quesadilla was nothing special. I did not like the flavor of the al pastor meat. Our friend ordered the tacos and it looked like they just reheated some meat. It did not seem fresh. Even the salsa bar looked sad. The server was nice and friendly. She mentioned we could pay with cash and have a discount. When we asked what the discount was vs paying with card, she did not know. There was plenty of seating inside, but it was outdated. read more

We will definitely be coming back again soon--highly recommend! read more

The quesabirria melted in my mouth it was so good! The corn tortillas are also so fresh and made from scratch. We had Al pastor and carne asada tacos which were excellent and a carne asada burrito which was huge and so amazing. It was supper clean inside and they had a serve yourself salsa bar. All the salsas were so good and not supper spicy. Highly recommend! read more

Terrible service. This place served 4 orders ahead me. They were not that busy had several open tables. The hostesses was nice but the waitress was clearly not up to the task as she looked right past me several times despite the fact I paid and sat right in front of her. The ambiance of this place is a small mom a pop shop with very limited seating. The food is okay nothing that is special in my opinion. read more

Well I need to say this place has darn good Birrieria tacos. I know that this type of taco has grown in popularity the last couple years. This place does them right. Great salsas along with a tasty consume make these near perfect. The price is more than reasonable for their two quesabirrieria tacos with consume. read more

If you're craving good authentic Mexican food, this is the place! I'm visiting from LA and didn't think that a place here in AZ would be that good but this was! We ordered a family meal for 4, which included 2 lbs of meat, rice beans, salsa, homemade tortillas and guacamole. The Birria is definitely the number one choice here. We also ordered Barbacoa, which wasn't bad, but kind of soggy and watery, which I'm not used to but it was ok. Barbacoa is usually steamed so it shouldn't be so wet. The taste was good though! I wasn't a fan of the champurrado, which is like a Mexican hot chocolate. It was too thick, because they were warming it up aka it was from yesterday and not fresh. We didn't really drink it, as it was like drinking a thick paste. The Agua Fresca, though on the sweet side was good though! Also, the guacamole side was RIDICULOUSLY small. Like a tiny salsa container and not worth even including as it's not enough... like 2 spoonfuls. My family enjoyed the meal and I'll definitely be back! read more

My two friends and I came here when I stopped back in town and they know tacos are my favorite food. We found this place with good reviews and birria tacos, which are also a favorite of mine. The outside is easy to find as the building is bright orange and the inside is huge with ample seating and a very authentic decor. Your order up at the front and they bring you your food. I had the two birria tacos with consome. WOW, the birria was soft and flavorful and the shells were nice and crispy. I also like that they were queso tacos with the melted cheese, my absolute favorite. I also had a carne asada taco, which was phenomenal. The carne asada had a strong flavor and the meat was excellent quality. The taco had onions and cilantro and the lady was nice enough to give me a huge side of pico de Gallo. The pico was super yummy and added great to the taco. I loved their salsa bar and the green salsa was the perfect amount of flavor and spicy. I also had a side of rice and the rice was delicious. Authentic with peas and okra, which I really enjoyed. My friends were also impressed. My friend had the burrito and it was twice the size of her head. My other friend had tacos as well. The tacos are authentic and street sized but they do not skimp on stuffing them and they are quite filling, I had leftovers. I would definitely visit again!! read more

Tried the quesabirrias. I could have sworn it said 3 but u was full at 2 . They're so delicious.

I don't understand why this place is not 5 stars. I am a certified customer that can attest this is the best place to get Taco's outside of Mexico City. A new pop-up is in town about a Michelin Star restaurant in Tempe. Had it, not it. Maybe go there if needed. Had an issue with an order a year ago. Called the store and Eric made sure it never happened again. Seriously best tacos north of the border. Try then judge for yourself! read more

Birrieria Don Jose - Mexican Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Never judge a book by its cover is a good description of this restaurant. As you pull into the parking area, you would not expect the interior to be as spacious as it appears since the lot es un poco chico. There are many menu options and I went for the birria recommendations. The birria plate was delicious, with the meat being tender, soft and flavorful. At first I thought there was an insufficient portion of beef until I moved the lettuce and onions. The rice and beans were just ok. I like my beans smoother, a little runny, and no cheese and preferably, homemade by my friend's mother-in-law. My friend ended up getting the five taco combo plate with al pastor and asada. He knows Mexican food as well and the caramelized onions were a big hit. They also have a salsa bar. They have ample seating, and if you want to feel taller, sit on the chair side versus the bench seating. I went specifically, for the birria and was not disappointed. I will have to return, again because I love consommé. there are many quality Mexican restaurants in this area and I think they serve a quality product. If you haven't been here, the quesabirrias look delicious too! read more

Outstanding. Very authentic flavors. With the ambience it's like we're in Mexico. Not fancy decor, not fancy food. Simple. But that's what authentic Mexican food is. There is a place in Mexico that was a bit better, in my opinion. But in Chandler? This is some of the best we've had. They also have flan and tres leches. Didn't try it this time, but it's on my list... read more

It was 9pm, and my boyfriend and I were craving Mexican food after a fun night of walking around town on New Year's Day. On our way back to Chandler, this was one of few places open. It was small and looked a little-run down on the inside. However, the bathrooms were clean. The staff were also friendly and hardworking (Highly recommend bringing some cash to tip because they more than deserve it!). We decided to get takeout but unfortunately could not hear much when we called. No worries though; we still stopped in to order 2 chicken taco plates to-go. We were served quickly within 10-15 minutes, and everything was wrapped and packaged neatly to take home. Whether you're dining in or taking out, remember to grab your own salsas and extra beans at the condiments station. My personal favorite was the light green salsa (which I believe was cilantro lime?). I recommend getting the plates instead of the 5 taco meal because you get to build your own tacos and add as much rice, beans, meat, and salsa on top. The beans were my favorite part of the meal--rich, creamy, and hearty. There was a lot of meat, and I had some leftover after using up my 3 corn tortillas (which were still hot after the 15 minute drive home). Highly recommend for some quick, yummy dishes made with love! read more

So good! We got two of the quesabirria tacos with consommé. They came out super steamy and fresh! The shells were crispy and they add a solid amount of birria. We also got the asada quesadilla which was also delicious. Everything was flavorful, and we'd definitely come back! read more

It's a big yellow restaurant on Arizona ave and Galveston... We came as soon as they opened.. The lady at the counter was friendly.. we ordered Asada Quesadilla and Birria... my husband said the quesadilla was bland , he said he wanted to get salsa and stuff from The salsa bar but there wasn't that much options to choose from ... I ordered the Birria which was good but honestly I had better... I wouldn't mind coming back to try something else though... it seemed like they had the usual customers that came every weekend.. read more

Came to Birrieria Don Jose for lunch with some colleagues. I didn't know what Birrieria was but I've seen it popping up on Mexican food menus all over so apparently it's the hot new food! I went with a five street-taco plate and a large horchata and days later the flavor of those Birrieria tacos unexpectedly invades my thoughts. I had two Birrieria tacos, two chicken and a carne asada and they were all great. Definitely recommend read more

Birria tacos were very good. Loved the consommé too. Hottest sauce had a nice amount of heat. First time here and will definitely be back!

This might be the best shredded beef burrito I've ever had, and I've had a plethora of burritos. You must try the birria. It is amazingly tender and tasty, soaked in a delicious juicy red sauce. It is heaven in a tortilla. The service is fantastic too. Legit authentic taqueria, the best in the area, which is saturated with taco shops. Might be the best in AZ. I simply cannot give this place's meat justice with words. Go try it. read more

So not hesitate! Although from the outside doesnt look like it, this place is bomb AF! Very authentic and the birria will have you licking your fingers. There osnt table service so you have to order at the counter, they'll bring it out when its ready. This isnt the type of place that has a full bar, just good food and great agua frescas...but trust me when I say, dont order a large, they are massive! Overall this place is chill, a quick sit and eat then bounce kind of place. I would definitely come back. read more

Birrieria Don Jose - Asada Taco y Quesabirria - Mexican Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I ordered the family pack meal with 3 lb meat through UberEats. It comes with a lot of rice and beans, but a very very small side of green salsa and red salsa. They also don't give you any pico de gallo or any onions with cilantro, but I feel like they should. Any other Mexican restaurants I've been to that offer family pack always do so I was pretty disappointed. We also got some corn tortillas but I prefer flour tortillas. I'm not sure if they will change that for you but I didn't see an option to change it on UberEats. I'd say I was happy with the food overall but I'd probably search for a different taco place first then come back to this one if there's nothing better in the area. read more

1st time visit had the 5 taco combo and carne asada super nachos. Proteins were fresh and had good flavoring. Cook did change gloves often. Chairs and booths are a bit outdated, restaurant lightning was on the dimmer side. Men's and Women's restroom were clean. read more

Our family has come to this restaurant four or five times now. The quesabirrierias are the favorite of my family. My personal favorite is their homemade fruit Agua Fresca with apples and bananas and strawberries so yummy and refreshing! It's like a fruit bowl with a drink!! Of all the places I have had agua Fresca cause I have never had this one. They make a good street taco plate as well. Sauces are fairly mild and that's OK for my family. On the salsa bar they also include an avocado salsa, radish, spicy carrots, cucumbers and bean soup. We love that they are open fairly late compared to the other taco places so whenever we get a craving we can go !! I took off one star for ambience. The shrimp taco is HUGE with rice in it ( never had it that way before, next time no rice fir me) We went in there in the winter and ate there. It was freezing cold. I don't know if the heater was broken, but it was freezing in there. Nothing fancy just great food. read more
