Fui a probar José,s Birriería en Stockton porque la anuncian como "la mejor birria", pero sinceramente me decepcionó bastante. El sabor no tiene nada que ver con una verdadera birria tatemada de res. Yo vengo de un lugar donde la birria original es muy conocida, así que sé perfectamente cómo debería saber una buena birria de res, y esta estuvo muy lejos de eso. Además, la mesera me preguntó si quería nervio y le dije claramente que no, pero aun así me pusieron bastante en el plato. También noté que los precios de la carta no coinciden con lo que te cobran al final. Me agregaron algo llamado "mixto" sin explicarme qué era ni preguntar si lo quería y fue un cobro extra  Y para acabarla, una Coca-Cola de lata en $4 dólares... demasiado caro. Lo único rescatable fueron las tortillas hechas a mano, esas sí estaban muy buenas. Pero fuera de eso, no fue una buena experiencia. read more

Called in for an order just for something simple. Place is nice but not what I was expecting. Paid damn near $30 for it. For it being close to $30 I was expecting it to be way more food than this. Sorry never again. UPDATE!: The rice is good but can't say the same for the meat. Plain hard dry. NOT even worth it. read more

This little Mexican restaurant shouldn't be overlooked. It's not in the best part of town, but I strongly suggest that you give it chance. The food here is pretty good. I've dined here in the evening a few times now and have never had a bad meal...and I've tried different items each time. The quesadilla w/chicken was really tasty. Both their carne and birria tatemada tacos are also really tasty. Now the tacos are street size, so a little pricey for what you get. They only give you a small bowl of chips & salsa but will bring you more upon request. Cerveza aqui...sí! The parking lot is a little tight, but it is doable. They also have karaoke (in spanish...don't know about english)...at least on the Saturday nights that we've eaten here. I've also seen a small mariachi group playing. Now my spanish is minimal. Each time I've dined here, I got by as the wait staff's English was about equal to my spanish. But it was fun trying to make sure both understood each other. Regardless of the language barriers, our orders were perfect! So again, I strongly recommend this place. I've been here a few over the last few months. I don't think you'll be sorry. read more

Muy buena birria tatemada nomas ocupan una salsa mas picosa para los crudos no me gusta la area pero me arriesgo por el consome

Bro I bought a whole birria pizza and they gave me a little ass thing of consume it was like $5 extra for something that is supposed to have consume. You guys should be sad giving this I would never recommend this to anyone looking for good birria and I asked for no onions and they put it everywhere. read more

This is a hidden gem on the south side of Stockton. We got the Quesabirria tacos (available with chivo/goat or res/beef) which were delicious! We also ordered a few tacos and I loved that the salsas came in squeeze bottles. The soda was a glass bottle Coke, made with real sugar. The staff was attentive and very friendly. The restaurant was clean, bright, and not too busy at lunch time. read more

Nothing against the waitress. She was decent but could have improved in being a tadbit more friendly. But I understand her she was running around like a Chicken with no head. All while this heavy duty set light skinned woman. Which in today's generation they call them tortas was sitting down wih her family having a good time while wearing a Joses's Birrieria uniform. Assuming she was on the clock. What bother me is that she got mad at the waitress because we were waiting for her to ask her for another beverage instead of helping her out. We were there I would say about 1.5-2 hours and no help whatsoever for that waitress. Food was decent. Asada was super well done with no flavor. Birrias was good a little dry. Carnitas were good. A little dry as well. Salsas were not good at all. Way too watery with no heat or flavor. I ask for a Burrito Mojado instead of it being creamed with salsa. It was creamed with excess of water. Could have been either from the salsa or the lettuce they put around it. Drinks were $5 each because they are "Imported". But yet they buy them from the local costco or local Smart & Final. $5 for a glass of Horchata and Jamaica but with no option of at least one refill. And they still expect a tip after implying their gratuity fee read more

Primera vez comiendo en este lugar y será la última. Los camareros rancheros y la birria en caldo muy salados y el agua natural la cobran. En que otro lugar o desde cuando cobran por el agua natural . No lo puedo creer. read more

Outstanding authentic experience! A true hidden treasure. I highly recommend the carnitas beans and rice tacos plate, simple and perfect! Every single dish we've had [party of five] during our lunch meeting was great, leaving us thoroughly impressed. Maybe turn the music down a pinch, lol read more

Excelente servicio, la comida muy buena y con un muy buen sazón recomendable para mí, la birria es lo que más me gustó

Yes, yes, yes, this what im talking about, not only consistent in flavor, but consistent in both modesto, and Stockton locations, two thumbs up for their "beef birria"... no need for px plenty on the site!! Provecho plebada!!! Ok i might add a couple of px!!! read more

went in for first time had our meal was not bad but was not really good had 1 tortilla left over thought we would bring home with our leftover food but owner immediately came over and said we could eat as many tortillas there but could not bring it home so my thought was was he going to put in garbage or was it going to end up on another table after we had touched it he was very rude how he spoke to us as costumers sent email no response from him we will not be back read more

I usually don't leave comments but this time it really blew my mind. I ordered the camarones a la diabla-ajo (spicy shrimp with garlic added) they were the bomb! Even though it was really spicy, I couldn't stop eating them. Really great hand made tortillas. My husband ordered chile relleno combo and he was also sweating from the spiciness of the salsa. The waitress was really nice and did asked him if he wanted the salsa spicy. For sure I will be back. Next time I'll try the goat birria tatemada and this time I will take pictures. read more

Had birria de chivo tatemada and a side of beans and ohhhhh boooy! That birria was tasty! No canned beans and home made tortillas, not just a regular tortilla big and thick tortillas. Definitely coming back again! read more

Food was little pricey but good. Birria de chivo was really good. House salsa with chips is delicious. My husband got mix fajitas and he did not like it because they topped it with red sauce. Looks like family run and service was good too. Very authentic ambiance and food, felt like I was in mexico. read more

I ordered from this place on Doordash. I was hesitant because it was a little on the pricey side for me. It was worth every penny! I got the Morisqueta. The rice soft and fluffy, the beans had good flavor, the pork with the salsa was delicious and tender. It was so soft yall that you can chew the bones without a problem. My husband got tacos and ig your thinking yikes 3+ dollars for a taco. Get them! They are big tacos with hand made tortillas. The asad had good flavor. All of it was chefs kiss. 10 out ot 10 recommend! read more

First time visiting this location, Jose birrieria has there first location in Modesto. Family owned. The place was nice simple, clean. Our severe was great, patient and friendly mind you we were a party of 11 and she kept calm and sweet the entire time. Omg! now let's get down to the delicious food, everything we ordered was amazingly delicious. The enchiladas were def the real deal michoacanas, the shrimp was super spicy just the way i like it, and the fajitas were a pop of juicy ness and flavor every bite. i didn't get a picture of the "birria tate mada" it was to die for, very authentic, tasty! we'll def be coming back! The birria tatemada was for sure one of my favs. Thank you Jose birrierias staff, they were all very welcoming. Oh they also have karaoke nights, which was cool, one lady blew me away, we enjoyed a beautiful evening. read more

Joses Birrieria - The Birria is delicious! Highly recommend. - Mexican Near Me - Stockton, California

This restaurant has great variety and not your typical Americanized Mexican food. Expect more authentic presentation such as folded enchiladas dipped not soaked in sauce. They have beers but not margaritas. Yummy house salsa. My Friend had the goat stew( bierra de Chiva) served with fresh tortillas, lime, onion & cilantro and said it was amazing. I had the enchiladas Michoancanas- enchiladas with pigeon. Surprisingly it was basically cheese onion enchiladas with two fried whole pigeons on top. Delicious but not what I was expecting. Looking for authentic food and good variety try here. Decor was nice and tables roomy. Waiter was friendly. read more

This place was great when it first opened up. But now its Pricey. They have raised their prices and seems like you get less birria on an order. The birria was still good, but the salsa they gave us for the chips tasted like canned tomato sauce and they just added chopped cilantro and onions. Its not the same as it was a year ago. read more

Amazing food! Hidden gem. I definitely recommend the burrito mojado salsa Verde with extra cheese n cream. Best I've ever had. Literally every dish we've tried here was on point! read more

Food was good. Service was good. A little warm because of no AC but they had karaoke.

The quesabirrias are awesome! Stopped by here on the way to golf and debating coming back here for dinner. Had a bite of my daughter's carne asada burrito. Tasty! Nice new find. read more

Bad experience we order a shrimp cocktail with octopus and it was bad no flavor ,octopus was hard as a rock the asada plate was real salty we told the waitress about it and she try to call her manager but at the end we just paid and left., not coming back for sure..I'll give the waitress 10/10 but the food 1/10 read more

Best Mexican in Stockton. Very authentic. Great waitresses. Karaoke on Saturday nights

Best quesabirrias? Yeah right. Paid over $30 for plain tacos! We asked for 6 quesabirria tacos with consome, had to repeat it several times before we switched to Spanish and even then we had to keep explaining it to the lady. Get the food and get home and they're just corn tortillas with meat. Where is the queso?! Not here. Consome had no meat. I'm actually grossed out looking at these I can't believe these are their "quesatacos" this must be a bad joke. read more

Terrible customer service terrible food told me my food will be ready in 15 mins and didn't come out till a hour later

This place is unbelievably a rip off, way overpriced. You rather go to other authentic Mexican restaurants. Their menu prices are 2x than the normal. The menudo soup we ordered was so small and cost $20 with no sides and also was so plain no onion no veggies nothing just stomach. We asked to order sides of salad rice and beans and the ladies don't even know or said they don't have salad and how should they make it. Who doesn't know how to make a side salad for your customers. Plus we were charged $15 for it. Their food is not even top notch. Portions are small and stingy. Don't waste your money here seriously. read more

Authentic sabor de Michoacán We ordered the Morisqueta (bed of white rice, beans, pork riblets topped with their special sauce, cabbage and sour cream) and a Birria de Res "seca" combo plate came with rice, beans and handmade corn tortillas.
