Want to support a woman owned taco joint! Come here! Picked up some dinner for my husband and I. I got the birria tacos which came with delicious grilled onions, sarono pepper, and consume. The tacos were packed with a generous serving of beef. I appreciate that! The flavors were great. My husband got the Burris burrito and his was also generous with ingredients. The drive thru staff were super nice! I'll be back to try some menudo! read more

Just another taco shop. Plenty of parking & seating. The tacos are good, hot & juicy. Could've used a few more onions & another Serrano as a side but I get it. Server at the counter is sweet with a smile & service was quick. read more

First off. The restaurant is very clean. The girl behind the counter greeted me in Spanish. But she also spoke good English. She was very nice. I ordered an asada burrito and a large Pina agua fresca. The burrito was HUGE. It must have weighed a pound or more. Carne asada, rice, beans, pico, and guacamole. There was some of everything in every bite. My only complaint is that the tortilla was a little dry and crunchy. It was extremely filling and flavorful. I'm going to come back and try the birria. read more

Authentic casual, no frills Mexican fare in East Mesa. Went there for the Birria tacos and they didn't disappoint. Great lunch! Two Birria tacos and a Mexican Coke for a guaranteed sugar buzz. Wikipedia describes the dish thusly: "Quesabirria is a Tijuana-originating taco that combines cheese with the traditional Mexican beef stew, birria. The dish is similar to a quesadilla or birria taco, and is also known as a quesataco or birria quesadilla. Quesabirria is made by filling tortillas with birria-style beef and cheese, cooking until the cheese melts, and serving with a dipping sauce, often consommé or beef broth." It goes on to say "the tortillas are red-stained and the dish can be messy." CAN CONFIRM!! Grab plenty of napkins before you sit down. There's no charge for extras. Good stuff. Will go back. Hoping to try Don Jose breakfast soon. Will probably need just as many napkins. read more

The birria tacos were flavorful and I liked the consume they served with it. My pastor and birria taco were eh I like my food salty and I feel like it was lacking a bit, but I will say their salsas were good and added a lot of flavor to the tacos. The spot is in a quiet part of town so the parking lot was empty. Our total came to 42 dollars for two people, a bit pricey but not unheard of. read more

My daughter loves Birria tacos. We were in the area and discovered this place by accident. I had the Sonoran Hot dog. The food is delicious! Very authentic flavors. Enjoyed the hot dog very very much! My daughter loved her birria tacos with the consommé. I highly recommend! We will be back for sure ! read more

We stopped here on one of our excursions. Decided to try the tacos and a Sonoran Hot Dog. The tacos were okay. The hot dog was good and I would say it was above average as far as Sonoran hot dogs go.The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean inside. The menu had a ton of options. I thought it was a little bit on the pricey side though. Not sure if I would go back. The food was good but nothing to ride home about. read more

I've been coming here for the past year and it is always amazing food. The pastor tacos are some of my favorite. My partner enjoys the tortas a lot too. The environment is inviting. A lowkey hole in the wall but one that offers high quality food and generous portion sizes! Strongly recommend this place. read more

1st time customer, ordered the Birrieria Plate. Exceeded my wildest expectation. Food is amazing! 5 different house made sauces, I tried them all and each one in its own right was delicious, my favorite was the creama fuego. Marinated vegetables were tasty as well, I probably made 5 trips to the sauce bar. Definitely my new go to read more

Well my YELPies, we were on a hunt for some authentic tacos. We found it.. however it left much to be desired. We ordered the #4 Quesabirria. The tacos were soggy before you even used the consome and the beef nor the condone had flavor, or in my world it's called SEASONING . My sweet tooth was TOOTHIN' so of course I had to get my FAV; Strawberry Tres Leche. Uuumm... it left me a bit disappointed as well. It had a chalky taste to it. . What saved this place was the amazing freshly fried Churros! The service was even great for this little spot on Main Street in Mesa. There are ample tables in the dining area but, the condiments area is not the cleanest well supplied area. Normally YELPies... I would say we would try this place again buuuut... not this time. I say try at your own risk or after you may have had some drinks and need something on your stomach. Still on the hunt for tacos! read more

The food was delicious. We have tried many birrieria tacos and these were among the best. We were only in town for a week, and as foodies, don't usually repeat restaurants.

Amazing The inside was also very clean. Something I really appreciate. read more

Food is great. I have been ordering G from here for a few months now on door dash. Decided to give them a call and see if they sold Champurrado. Everyone was friendly , place was clean and seemed to have a few tables bust at around 9pm . Overall, great food and champurrado read more

Should give a 1 star for what I found in my food but I like some of the workers and the food is good, just pricy. The cooks MUST keep an eye on the equipment and what goes in our food. Very upsetting to find a BOLT that size in my food. Could have cracked my tooth or teeth causing thousands of dollars. Worse I could choked on it and even died. NOT COOL ! read more

Really great customer service, food was good and the price was fair. There was only one girl working register and one woman on the grill. They both seemed to be very sweet and had good customer service skills, smiling at us and being quick to suggest their favorites when I asked for recommendations. read more

Although the food was okay. I wasn't happy that I was given the skins of onions in my grilled onions. It's almost like they grabbed the trash of the onions and grilled em. I had Quesabirria and two tacos they were good. I'd upload a pic of the food but I ate it already . The lady was very nice at the drive-thru window. read more

This place at first looks good over all clean ; however after ordering it took 25 minutes for my order to come out . I asked for 2 quesa birrias . My wife order a simple torta , they messed up her order . They took it back and took another 20 minutes for them to bring out the order . Over all slow service , they are bringing out a plate at time , this process make the lunch experience very odd and awkward having to eat by yourself because they can't cook two orders at time . read more

I love quesabirrias, and they don't disappoint here, their birria has rich flavor and the 899 plate is plenty of food, they make great Aguas frescos too, I stop in here regularly when I want flavor! If I had anything negative to say it would be the sides are a little expensive, and the cake was out of stock if you wanted a tres leches. Generally I come for tacos though so it's no big deal. 4.5 only because I'd like there to be cucumbers and radishes in the topping bar. read more

I went yesterday after work and order me a #10 with a drink and rice and beans. Once I got home I opened the container to find just meat and tortilla. When I went to check my receipt I saw that there was no actual order on my receipt just the total. I called the store to tell them that my order was wrong but they tell me that's what I ordered. I insisted that this was another customer's order and not mines. The manager tell me that if I come back to the store they will remake my order. I asked her if I could come back the next day and she says yes; but once I arrive to get my order fixed they're telling me they can o my give me onion and cilantro like what am I gonna do with that? I usually like eating here but after that I'm not coming back here. Maybe it was just an off day but I spent my last on food just for it to be wrong. read more

Overpriced and terrible food, terrible service to go with it. Overall ambiance of the place seems run down and unclean.

This restaurant is amazing. The food is freshly made and the flavor is to die for. The price is very reasonable and the portions were great. We've already gone back with some friends. read more

We heard this place was good, we drove over 25 minutes to try it out. We were not disappointed, the drive thru service was outstanding. We drove all the way back home before enjoying our food and it was still hot and fresh!! So far the best Mexican food I have had since moving here. 10/10 weeks will be going again and again! read more

I looked at their reviews and it was 4.7 That was a good indication of what to expect. I called in an order for a Menudo and Tripas tacos. Gabriella took my old over the phone and I hade some special request and she hit everything spot on. The place is amazing, the dining area was clean. The bathrooms were clean and I highly recommend you try it out. They have my highest recommendation. Great job Gabriella. read more

Authentic flavors! Made with love. I had the Birrieria and steak tacos. The rice and beans brought me back to my mom's rice as a kid. May she rest in peace. Definitely going back. read more

Carne asada tacos were very good with authentic Mexico flavors. I am looking forward to trying the tripas next. Horchata was excellent too! The hot sauce bar has mild, hot, and very hot, I liked the flavor of the mild green sauce and then added some very hot to the taco. It's really not very hot. Place is very clean, but the ambience has the look of a fast chain restaurant. The staff was friendly and the young lady's smile was priceless.They have a drive thru. I will definitely be back to order out again and I will take pictures too! read more

This place is too good. The food is definitely authentic and they have a large variety :)
