    If un edible greasy tacos are your thing here's your place !
    Brandon D.

    The menu is not great to understand what your getting , The tacos look very small like street tacos on the menu so I ordered four and a side of beans a small side . The bill came out to 25 bucks which is fine if the food was great . The tacos were big. All of them were drenched in Grease and the bottom fell out of tacos . Instead of a small side of beans, I got a large side of rice, which was bland despite me putting some of the meat in the taco because they were edible into the rice. It did not fix the rice. Managed to get half of a taco down and I just couldn't do it anymore . $25 down the drain. Also, the lady that took my order was really short with me. Apparently they do not do sour cream. Highly recommend el jeffe tacos . Seriously the worst tacos I've ever had.

    Husband picked up dinner, said there was only two workers working and it was so slow. The menu is decent BUT they only serve Birria. No other meats. The food itself was good. Would be better if we ate there or lived closer. I would try it again possibly.

    New birria spot in town! The food came out fast, fresh and delicious. We tried the birria pizza that included two consume. Would definitely get again and try other items. The interior is nice, bright and clean. Service was not the worst nor the best. Could use better service with smiling faces and proper greeting and thanks.

    There are so many taco shops and restaurants opening its hard to keep track! Xolos is one of the better ones. I got three queso Birria with consume and three Birria. Both were very good and loaded with meat! Only thing all of it needed was a little salt. Juicy and tender meat. Not at all dry. Came with red salsa along with all the condiments. Salsa had a nice kick! The six tacos and a small consume came to a total of 26 $. Decent price for what you get. Good place to try!

    First time trying this place, and I was not disappointed. They only serve birria. Luckily, the birria is really good. I ordered birria ramen and a taco dorado. My bf ordered 3 tacos. They do not skimp on the meat. My bf said he should have just ordered 2 because he was really full afterward. The ramen was huge and could easily be split. Again, they do not skimp on the meat. The ramen had so many chunks of meat. I think for the amount of food you get, they are very reasonably priced. I enjoyed both the ramen and the taco dorado, but the ramen was my favorite. I also appreciated that the cashier (Sara) checked on us and asked if we enjoyed our meal. I will definitely be returning and will be recommending this place to friends and family.

    We just tried this place and we're not disappointed. We got birria tacos with consume, it came out fast, fresh and steaming hot. The tacos were packed with meat and came with condiments to add on to your taste. The consume had chunks of birria meat and portions were huge. The meat itself was flavorful and they give you salsa to spice it up if that's your thing. Service was great. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The owner came around to everyone at one point and made sure everything was good, which we appreciated since it let us ask questions. The restaurant itself was setup like a higher end fast food joint. Get your own fountain drinks and napkin dispensers on the tables. Every was bright and clean with large booths. We were very comfortable eating inside. It looks like they do have a drive thru, too. I'll be back to try a quesadilla next time.

    Birria Pizza

    I would give this place 3/5 stars for the following reasons. I got a Birria Pizza and 4 Birria tacos the tacos alone were dry, tortillas were falling apart when handling them. Pizza was okay however an overload of cheeses and meat was also dry. Service was ooooookay. And the places seemed slow. Maybe not enough traffic as it seemed like a new place. So atmosphere seemed a little slow / non existing ?

    Super good Birria! The only thing on the whole menu is just different options for consuming Birria, and they totally deliver! We were huge fans of the quesotacos, and we loved the salsa and toppings that came with the meal. When the food was brought to the table, and we saw all the toppings wrapped in a small plastic bag on the side of our meal, we knew we made a good choice for lunch. Only one option for salsa that we were aware of but it was really flavorful and really spicy! I don't know what it is with all these birria places but they do not skimp on the portion sizes, all the tacos felt like they could've been two(2) tacos of their own, so you definitely get your money's worth out of it. If you're looking for just birria and nothing else, this is it. Super juicy and delicious, probably the best we've had in town!

    Quesataco & toppings (Packed to go order)

    Been wanting to try this place and I've seen mixed reviews, mostly good. I was immediately greeted upon entering. The place is a good medium size location with several tables and everything appeared clean. The menu is fairly simple with several items featuring Birria. I opted for their Queso tacos and mulita to go. The order was up fairly quickly and the food held up pretty good for my drive home. While the meat was tender, seasoned well and the corned tortillas held up fairly well and I thought the amount of food given was worth the price. But, I have to say that the packing choice was not the best. The orders were just placed on flat Styrofoam (like butcher/meat containers) and a piece of foil to cover. So needless to say, food drippings were all over the bag. To my surprise, I was disappointed that they do not include a cup of the consume to accompany the birria tacos; seriously how much is it to include a 4oz cup or something or at least advise the consumer, it doesn't come with it. I did see that it was available ala carte, but didn't think that I had to order that separately. Then the toppings (cilantro, chopped onions & pickle onions) were pre-portioned and packed in plastic baggies and one small salsa (the only item that was placed in the industrial solo cups), so for the amount of food I ordered, I was only given two sets of toppings (my personal opinion, there should be additional salsas, at minimum). So, overall, I would say the food was good (tasting and amount of food). Value is ok, since you have to order consume separately for birria tacos. Packing is less than satisfied/borderline cheap & lazy. Also, heads up, this establishment does charge service fee (and it's posted on their Point of Sale, inside) if you use a credit card; doesn't bother me, since I pay cash...but I know some folks like to know upfront.

    No flavor pizza

    After seeing this place for months unopened I was so excited to finally try it out. We ordered the birria Pizza & 2 ramens. We threw away both noodles they had absolutely no flavor and we were not able to fix it with all the add ins The birria pizza box is still full and completely bland no flavor whatsoever. Consome tasted like water Almost $50 waisted and we were all still so Hungary afterward

    Birria used to imply goat but now it seems to mean a style. So is the meat goat or beef?

    Our Birria is made of beef.

    Tacos Tijuana is my absolute favorite local taco shop! It's easily one of the best taco spots in…read morethe area and genuinely holds up when compared to authentic tacos I've had in Tijuana. The quality really stands out--especially the homemade tortillas, which take everything to the next level. The al pastor and carne asada are both incredible, packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. I also love that the al pastor is cooked authentically on a spit, which really adds to the flavor and experience. There's also a great variety of options on the menu, so there's something for everyone. Service is consistently quick, even when it's busy, which makes it a great spot whether you're grabbing a quick meal or sitting down to enjoy your food. Their Taco Tuesday deal is also a huge win--great value without sacrificing quality, and it keeps us coming back regularly. And the salsa deserves its own shoutout--absolutely incredible! It's packed with flavor and honestly good enough that you could enjoy it on its own. It really takes everything to the next level. If you're looking for authentic-style tacos with great flavor, fresh ingredients, fast service, and awesome specials, Tacos Tijuana is a must-visit. Easily one of my top spots in the area!

Staff was professional and fast. 4 tacos $11.06 included a 20% discount. No rice. No beans. But those limes really added to the flavor. I stretched it to feed 2 peeps. It was good and convenient. Fit what I needed at the moment, but probably won't be back.

Update: the owner messaged me and told me to buy an entire chicken. Uh, maybe put some chicken in the chicken burrito? Update #2: The owner sure does like to argue with the customer back and forth. Now, he proposed that I order from Chipotle instead since they fail to give customer what one paid for. Update #3: The owner still going back and forth with me and now claiming I did not pay for the burritos. Not really sure what he means by that. But here is the screen shot of 2 burritos ordered via DoorDash. This is just wild.

Got the $30 Plato Campechano between 2 ppl (half chicken, half a pound of Carne, flour and corn tortillas, rice, beans from the pot, salsas, grill jalapeños, guacamole, limes, and radishes). Decent amount of food, although the chicken and carne were both a bit dry. I enjoyed the beans and rice, and the additional accouterments. Overall, good flavor and seasonings, just dry protein. Not sure if that would change on a busier day if fresh food was being pumped out, but would be open to checking this place out again!

    Sometimes the best meals happen because your original plan falls through. That was exactly the case…read morehere, and honestly... I'm not even a little mad about it. I ordered the veggie tacos with roasted sweet potatoes (skin on, which was absolutely the right call), pepitas, feta, and all the right toppings. Whoever prepped those sweet potatoes deserves a raise because they were cut into the perfect sized pieces. Every bite had a little sweetness, a little crunch, a little saltiness... it just worked. My dining partner ordered the barbacoa tacos, and I didn't even have to ask if they were good. The involuntary "Mmm..." after the first bite answered that question. Four tacos disappeared in record time, followed by, "I could've eaten two more." That's about as glowing of a review as you're going to get. Now let's talk about these tortillas. Handmade. Corn. Tortillas. Are you kidding me? They're the kind of tortillas that had me question every tortilla I've ever eaten. Soft, fresh, and somehow they manage to steal the spotlight even with everything else on the plate being so good. The chips and guacamole were excellent, too. The chips have to be made in-house and they disappeared at an alarming rate. The salsa that came with them had this smoky, fire-roasted, chipotle flavor that kept me reaching for another chip... and then another... and then suddenly I realized I'd eaten way more chips than I intended. The bottled table salsas deserve their own paragraph because they completely confused me... in the best way. They bring three to the table... a green, a red, and a darker red. I kept tasting them individually thinking, "Okay, these are alright." Then I started mixing them. Game over. On their own, each one was solid. Mixed together? That was the magic. I don't know if that's what they intended or if I accidentally stumbled onto the perfect combination, but from that point on, every taco got the salsa trio treatment. The only tiny hiccup was when we first walked in. We were greeted, asked if we wanted menus, and sat ourselves. We waited for a bit thinking someone would come take our order, only to realize it's actually counter service. Once we figured that out, everything was smooth sailing. Not a big deal at all... just something first-time visitors might want to know. Follow the sign "order here" I also loved the layout. You can actually watch them making the food, which somehow makes the wait even harder because everything smells incredible. Two tacos ended up being the perfect light meal for me. Could I have eaten ten? Absolutely. Those two statements can both be true. Meanwhile, my dining partner polished off four barbacoa tacos and was talking about ordering two more. We only ended up here because another place happened to be closed, and honestly, I'm glad it worked out that way. This ended up being one of those meals we keep talked about on the drive home. Oh and the bathrooms?. I walked in and immediately thought, "Whoa... this is a cool bathroom" The lighting had this pinkish-purple glow that made me feel like I'd accidentally wandered into a trendy lounge instead of a taco shop. I honestly wasn't even sure there was regular lighting in there and I didn't look... because the vibe seemed so intentional. Finally, the music. .. upbeat, dance-worthy, the kind that had me bouncing in my seat while waiting for my food. Between the atmosphere, the lighting, and the music, the whole place had me want to hang out a little longer. Zero regrets. I'll absolutely be back... and next time I'm ordering more tacos.

First of all, eating anywhere in Tempe, starts with a frustrating time.... Trying to find parking and having to pay to park. I don't understand why restaurants don't have parking for customers. Idk maybe I don't know where to look. Second, it's hot AF in here. I feel sorry for the guys cooking. It's 105 today and the restaurant is so small, it's probably impossible to keep cool during the summer. Finally, the food. It all tastes very fresh! NO SEED OILS is amazing. I feel like I have won something when I find a restaurant that uses olive oil and beef tallow to cook in. Best corn tortillas I have had for sure. We basically tried one of each taco. (Although some of the tacos we ordered were wrong, so we just kept adding) not a big deal, because they were delicious and we loved them. I felt like the carne was chewy but my husband loves chewier meat. The taco with the marlin was my favorite. And the one that came out kind of like a cheese crisp. It's loud in here and again the space is very small. They do not serve wine at all. But yummy margaritas! The bartender is working solo and working hard! She busted her butt and did an amazing job. And smiled the entire time. She was awesome
