    Tacos
    Jasmine O.

    The restaurant was nice and clean and surprisingly empty for a Saturday around 4ishpm. They have a outdoor patio area and they were playing the World Cup game, which added to the atmosphere. Service was fine. We ordered soft tacos, crunchy tacos, birria nachos, a chicken birria burrito, and french fries. The birria nachos were pretty good, it's came with beans and avocado but not enough cheese. That said, I was a little disappointed with the birria. The meat was tender and had a great texture but it lacked flavor. I added salt and salsa but it just wasn't delicious.. the salsa was missing something.. couldn't quite figure it out. Compared to the Downey location, the Downey location had much better flavor. To sum it up, the experience was pleasant, but the food didn't quite live up to my expectations.

    I love the big windows so much! There is even some outside patio seating opposite the cashier if you want to eat with some fresh air but the tall ceilings definitely make the whole layout fill open and spacious. One of my favorite parts was that their salsas and onions had a surprise kick to them! I loved their vampiros and horchata - I gotta come back to try some other food items. Their best asset? Their attentive and caring staff. They are on it!

    Taco Tuesday specials

    Nothing beats Taco Tuesdays here. Naturally, the place can get pretty busy. Be patient as the cashier is also the server, the busser and the salsa replacer. She does it all.

    First time eating food here; got the birria tacos (which by the way is that price for one; pricey I think), cali burrito (decent size), egg roll (comes with 3). Flavor is great, not too salty. Their sauces are good and interestingly tasty. There's indoor seating but I've only gotten take out. No issues so far! Love the softness of their birria since some other places have more of a tough texture to their birria. I'd definitely be eating up their menu. Give this place a try, no regrets :)

    $1 taco on taco Tuesday. Chicken or beef soft taco. Such a great deal. I came here twice already. You can place a phone order and only took less than 15 mins. They do have a self service salsa bar. They have a spacious indoor dinning and a small outdoor patio. Friendly service and plenty of parking.

    Birria Chilaquiles
    Lisa Y.

    New birria spot recently opened in Los Alamitos! When looking at the menu, I think I counted over 25 menu items containing birria...and they seem to be adding more! What caught my eye was the Birria Chilaquiles (I'm a huge chilaquiles fan!). The portion size is pretty big! A heaping mound of chips with good sauce coverage, lots of tasty, tender birria, and two eggs. I would get it again! You can also get the chilaquiles in burrito form. The other item that I thought was unique is their Birria Crunch Wrap. It has layers of birria meat, crunchy tostada shell, lettuce, avocado, beans, cheese, and I believe sour cream? I think it would have been even better with some tomatoes! The Crunch Wrap is not as flavorful as I was expecting, but they have a salsa bar with lots of different salsas that you can add to your liking! Also fyi, this one's a little messy to eat! Now back to the salsa bar--be warned that pretty much everything at the salsa bar packs some heat! They have a red and orange sauce, pico de gallo, and pickled onions, and everything was on the spicy side. Spicy lovers, you will love this! Other birria items that I'm definitely coming back for: Birria Egg Rolls, Birria Empanada, Birria Pizza, and Birria Ramen!

    Watched a few videos of this place on social media featuring the chilaquiles and decided we need to go and try it. Place has a modern look to it, it's clean and bright inside not too much going on super simple maybe needs music or decor it was a little boring inside but I guess that does not matter since we are here for the chiliquiles not to hang out. I got there around 11am and there was a few people inside with the big chiliquiles pizza box at thier table so clearly it's the popular item to order. Menu was simple and they offer both can and soda in bottles. Rice and beans are separate to order. Food was good, the chips tortillas were nice n crispy there was tons of all the toppings and they're not spicy at all but had good flavor. I would go again BUT the big pizza box is more than enough for 4 ppl. I shared with one person and had a ton left over. Looks at the pics they speak for themselves.

    Wow wow wow Wow! Amazing food, inctedible services and chill ambiance. Our family enjoyed: Kid- bean and cheese burrito, it was cheesy heaven! Wrapped in a warm delicious tortilla. There will be no leftovers, especially for a hungry baseball kid! Mom- chilaquiles & birria, as a chilaquiles snob I can say these are legit! No soggy bites, pack a perfect crunch, amazingly good birria and runny egg with the pickled onion topping XXL so could be shared. Dad- wet birria burrito, an explosion of flavors!! Tender meat bites, well potioned with rice n beans, life a burrito lasagna every bite had a punch! And the salasa.... literally couldnt stop eating it DESSERT- coco flan. O m Geeee. Just come and try this already! Plus we met Mr. BIRRIA! Cant wait to come back and try more.

    Got the chilaquiles burrito. I thought it was expensive for what I got. Please don't ever cut the burrito again with the foil on it, I had to pick out foil pieces in my burrito. I think the chips should be given for those dining in. The salsa had flavor. The service was fine. The ambience, the restaurant was nice and clean.

    Our family was so giddy when we saw that a new location opened up in Los Alamitos from their original in Downey!! Everything is just as delicious as their Downey location with the added benefit that they have extra space and seating plus a patio. They also offer chicken and carne asada at this location in addition to their AMAZING birria! Their tortillas are freshly made and their sauces compliment the food so well! The staff was friendly and attentive the entire time we were there. It's a restaurant where you order at the front and then take a seat and even so, the staff made sure we were taken care of by checking in on us. Honestly so shocked it wasn't full like their Downey location! Such amazing food and great service!

    Birria Bowl $12.99 enough for 2 people 10/10

    First timer. Can't believe it took me this long to come try this place out. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Not too big or small. Order at the counter. Person working last night was great. Friendly. I ordered the Birria Bowl. 10/10 highly recommend. Bowl comes with Rice, Pinto Beans, Birria, lettuce, sour cream, and avocado. The birria is authentic and flavorful. What I loved about this dish is that every component had flavor. The rice and beans were great. The bowl comes with 3 corn tortillas. $12.99 and this dish can feed up to two people easily. The salsa they provide is outstanding. My favorite was the spicy red one. Yum. Highly recommend. Will be back.

    I'm glad we're getting more authentic Mexican dishes in this area. The staff was polite excited to assist. This restaurant should do well with the ultra modern look. Simple and clean I like it The consume I purchase had great flavor and now I know the meat will too and everything moving forward will too. I shall return

    Breaking News! SENOR BIRRIA has turned all the people at my work place with smiles and wanting more :) It was 2 of the worker birthdays and they wanted Birria. I told them both I got the right joint. I came here a couple weeks ago, so I already knew it was delicious. I know I cheated lol. I called in the order, keep in mind to give them 24 hours notice if you planning to do this. I went with the Large Birria that comes with the 60 tortillas and other condiments. Large Rice, Small Beans, 6 Large consome, quesadillas, egg rolls, extra taco on the side. Everyone love it at work, they kept coming for seconds and third too haha. All in all, a must try in the books. Ordering to go or just dining in with good music in the air, is my thing. Thank you Senor Birria, will be nocking again soon.

I love Mexican food leftovers. My mom keeps asking, so I been here three weekends straight. Tried six different things. Not a breakfast burrito yet ironically. Nachos, tacos and asada fries are my favorite so far. They have green and red sauce, but no pickled carrots or radish or anything like that. I find the green is spicier. Red is perfect. Has some kick, but not overpowering and doesn't linger so you can enjoy it. Ask what's in the entrees or figure it out as you go like I'm doing. Some of the ingredients aren't for me, like iceberg lettuce. Come ready to eat. You'll get a lot of good food.

Since we were already heading west to climb at Sender One Lakewood, Don Ruben was the perfect stop! We decided on the special and machaca breakfast burritos. Sure, there was a line both to order and pick-up, they lost our order, there are few outdoors seats, and it took longer than anticipated, but they make everything fresh to order. Our minor disappointment quickly turned into unexpected joy and satiation within our first two bites! They have created a perfect blend of meats, cheese, veggies, and seasoned potatoes here at Don Ruben's, and I couldn't even wait until the end of my meal before I began sending out text messages with the "Check out Don Ruben's" yelp page links! Listen, y'all, I've eaten a lot of breakfast burritos around the country, especially in LA and Orange County. I found my favourite OC breakfast burrito a few years ago, and now I've found my LA County one. Great prices, friendly service, quality ingredients, and sabor is what you'll find at Don Ruben's! You should also know that parking can be rough, as there is a small lot and a busy street in front. However, if you don't mind walking, you can park in the local neighborhood and get to Don Ruben's in a few minutes. This place is worth it!

It was bright like a fast food joint, but had table service and beer, wine and margaritas. We were a fairly good sized group of 9 and sat side by side on two booths that were separated by a glass partition that they removed. My brother-in-law told me the place is packed on the weekends and, judging by the food, I don't doubt it. The portions are big and the flavors strong, but not overpowering. The sampler plate is enough to share and is a good choice for someone who wants a little bit of everything. The carnitas were really good. It wasn't dry and the pieces were thin cut slices. With my flour tortillas and their delicious salsa, it was mouthwateringly good. The chicken fajitas, like the sampler, were enough to share. In fact, my wife and mother-in-law shared a plate. The molcajete was sizzling hot with delicious fish and shrimp and pulpo (octopus). I'm not a pulpo fan, but my brother-in-law ate everything and said it was delicious. Parking is tight and if you're traveling too fast on Carson going eastbound you might miss it. If you're traveling westbound, you need to turn on the street before the restaurant. The staff were really nice and polite and even sang happy birthday to my brother-in-law and gave him a sombrero for the pics, to boot. It truly was a wonderful night of family and good food and a place we'll put on our regular rotation soon.
