    Birria Kitchen in Edison is a small, cute place that is clean and quiet, with very friendly staff. We ordered beef birria tacos with cheese, a birria bowl, Mexican street corn esquites, and two passion fruit juices. The food was very flavorful and we enjoyed every bite, but it was a bit salty, so make sure to drink plenty of water. The passion fruit juice was refreshing, but not enough to balance all the salt. Overall, I really recommend this place, and next time I'll just order more water.

    Solid birria tacos spot. The taco bowls are a good portion size as well. Fresh ingredient all around. The 4 tacos could have been a bigger portion, was still hungry after eating them. The side of corn was very good, and can put it on everything : tacos, bowls, etc. The warm chips and salsa hit the spot too. Check this place out if your in the Edison area and craving Birria Tacos !!

    Birria Loaded Quesadilla. Absolutely delicious!

    Food and service is amazing. Best Birria I have ever had! The beef is tender and flavorful. Horchata is delicious too.

    Hands down the best birria tacos I have tried in Jersey so far. Service was quick. Tacos and consume were extremely juicy and flavorful. There was plenty of seating inside. Will definitely be craving this spot again.

    The food was great, tacos were crispy while the meat was juicy. Consome was flavorful and had a nice kick. Seems like majority of their business is from delivery and takeouts. My partner and I dined in and we have no complaints. This is a quick grab and go place! interior was clean and simple. Would definitely come back.

    My new go to Birria and taco place. This place is unbelievable good. I have been trying to find a Birria place that didn't cost an arm and a leg, and I found it! The portions are big, clean, filling, and CHEAP. 4 tacos are about $14, compare to other places where I paid $25 for 3 tiny tacos. There is only chicken and beef, and as a person who only eats halal it made me soooo happy. I didn't have to worry about there being a ton of pork on the menu! This place is super lowkey, hidden from the world but super trendy and spacious inside. Definitely great for meeting up with friends to overeat great food. The consommé was hot and flavorful, and if you needed more of a kick, they had a hot sauce station! The staff was very kind and helpful with all the questions and when we came back for a second round of tacos! This is the type of place to order everything on the menu with your friends and go crazy. I highly highly recommend and I will be back!

    This review is pending from July, I went here for lunch on a weekday with a friend around ~2pm and it wasn't busy although they had folks coming for takeout. Service was average - she answered our questions but wasn't super friendly nor mean, just average. Ambiance is fresh and clean. The food was good but felt like it lacked flavor or punch. I will come back again to give it another chance.

    Beef tacos, amazing!
    Kirsten K.

    I love a restaurant that focuses on one kind of food and does it perfectly. The menu at Birria Kitchen is small and I applaud that! I've eaten in here multiple times and gotten takeout just as many times. Customers order and pay at the counter and can get bottled beverages from the refrigerator case. I'm happy that the restaurant offers Starbucks bottled drinks. The flavors in all the tacos are satisfying and the portions are good. I usually get a Mexican street corn along with my tacos. There's a very small free parking lot. The restaurant is in a little strip mall next to a pizzeria.

    Place was decent, more of in a hidden away location and I didn't know this existed in Edison. The store is decently sized and very organized. The one thing I didn't like was that how cold it was inside the actual restaurant, I did bring a jacket but still felt like it was too windy with too many fans on. You order upfront and then sit at the tables and the waitress brings your food, services is decent and the staff cleans right after the customers leaves. Now time for the food, I've had plenty of tacos and I feel like these are decent, taste way better with the spicy green sauce. My husband got the burrito and said it was average. We would be down to come back and try other food items in the future. Hopefully they expand the menu a bit more.

    Churros- must try Tres Leches
    Latoya L.

    This was an ok place. I got the street corn on the cobb, hot Cheetos corn on the co b, birria tacos, 2 chicken and 2 beef, churros, and a tres leches cake. The tacos lacked flavor, the corn was undercooked in my opinion. The best thing was the churros with the white icning. I can eat that all day. All in all, check this place out for lunch.

    This place is a hidden gem serving up some seriously good birria! Everything on their menu is super authentic. You guys have to check it out today! And for my adventurous people, they have hot Cheetos street corn and hot Cheetos esquites !

    The birria tacos here are by far the best in the area. The meat quality is fantastic and so much flavor on both the chicken and beef. Not greasy at all. Staff was sweet and the food came out very quickly. Will absolutely be coming back often!

It's a curse because everything is so effing delicious and it's so far from my home! One of my daughters recommended Taco Empreso as she is a regular customer. She even spotted my nephew eating here one evening, who came all the way from Brooklyn lol. So there were three of us, who ordered an assortment of items to share. Let's start with the tacos... We ordered the Baja shrimp, Baja fish, steak, birria, asado chicken and shrimp Ensenada. Every single taco was finger licking with distinct flavors that were sooo sooo good. I could not decide on a favorite. We also shared birria fries, which were AWESOME! If I ever return... you know the rest lol. The meat was juicy, flavorful and melted in my mouth. The marinaded chicken and beef were succulent and the flavors subtly stood out. We also ordered a steak burrito, which was Cali-style with fries instead of rice. The steak was flavored, tender, and crave-able. A popular must have! We added a birria quesadilla, which was also epic. Lastly, the frozen pina coladas! Get it! The food is road trip worthy!

I got the coconut lemonade and it's the best of both worlds of lemonade with pina colada vibe. My friend got the tropical fizz which was flavorful as well. For tacos we got birria, butter chicken, asada, grilled chicken, and Nashville hot chicken, and el pastor. Think the ones we enjoyed the most collectively was butter chicken, grilled chicken and asada. The sauces have a spice level to them which elevate the tacos. Guac and chips were okay a tad bland for me. The esquite corn was yummy side. It's self service where you order tacos either at register or from screen. When your name is called you pick up the food. The tables are limited. I would definitely go back to try some different tacos and for those delicious mocktails.

You definitely have to circle around a few times to get a spot. When we went on a Tuesday night as a group of 3, although it was busy inside, we were seated immediately. It was busy and loud inside but we still were able to talk and hear each other without yelling. Our server Michael was great and super attentive. He was knowledgeable about the menu and answered all of our questions. Tuesdays are half off on tacos so I decided to order 4 tacos: the chicken tinga, al pastor, chorizo and potato, and the carne asada. I wanted to get 4 different tacos that I've never tried before and this was the perfect option since it was half off. This was an amazing idea because the portion size was huge and everything was so good.
