    A small place to eat  excellent birria. Price is affordable.  Come and enjoy.
    Veronica M.

    I have always wanted to come to eat here. Not that many places to eat authentic birria. It's a very small place but very clean. The employees are nice. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. Yummy.

    Birria Pizza

    I came specifically for the Birria Pizza, and it totally lived up to the hype--and then some. It was incredibly flavorful, tasty, and delicious. The tender, slow-cooked birria meat combined with that melting cheesy perfection brought all my taste buds together for the ultimate comfort food experience. Seriously, every single bite was heaven!

    Birria tacos with consome

    Birria tacos were delicious. I ordered the 3 hard shell tacos with cheese and I was full! The other dish options looked interesting, like the grilled cheese birria. I'll have to try it next time. It is limited seating, no bathrooms so it will be good to eat when you're on the go or want to eat at home.

    Loaded Friess reall would be nice if they were a bit more crunchy but the flavor was REALLY good.

    Jacob G.

    Pulled over because I was craving some birria, so I got the birria quesadilla and my fiancé got the #1 and it was so good. They serve you a lot so you'll definitely get your moneys worth but it was bit pricey not gonna lie and the service was great.

    From DTLA to Pico the best birria tacos I've had. And the horchata... OMG, so bomb. The workers are so cool, I'm definitely coming back, and I can't wait.

    I took my family to eat here for the first time, and I have to say this place is probably the best birria I tried around the area. I recommend this spot if your craving some birria.

    I've seen this place for years and have been wanting to go but the hubby always says no. So I came alone. WOW! I ordered a hard shell birria taco with yellow salsa. I wasn't gonna get cheese bur the wonderful employee, Nathalia, put half on without charge so I can try- soooo much better. You don't need salsa because the birria flavor is wonderful, but the yello salsa is damn delicious with the perfect kick! Lots of seating outside and very clean. They also hard great Rock En Español playing! Gonna force the hubby to come because he loves hard shell tacos!

    Chicken soft tacos

    Just move back into a area I lived for many years well I a hop skip and a jump from from this mom and pop establishment. The California burrito was big and good flavor I love the way they cut it in half. Soft taco asada was great too. Lots of meat. My wife says the Birria tacos were bomb and my daughter thought the nachos were good surprise that the personal nachos was big. To think how big the bigger is?! I love mom and pops like this it's about the food prep not just making it. It's about the pride. Customer service was great like talking to your neighbor very detailed and knowledable. It's a small hole in the wall so it's a but noisy it's right in front of Washington blvd. Has a few chairs to relax and eat. Or to go as I did. This will be my go to since it's within a hop skip and jump from my house Thanks for your friendly service

    Best burrito I've ever had in while, I just got the chicken burrito. So I can imagine the birria would be much better! 10/10

Everything we ordered was delicious. We ordered 2 tostadas de camaron and the carne asada plate with a chile relleno. The order of 2 tostadas was excellent. It came with a lot of shrimp and avocado. The shrimp was fresh, well seasoned, and not overly cooked. The carne asada plate was also so good! The carne asada was cooked perfectly with grilled onions on top and rice and beans on the side. The tortillas they included were soft and seemed to be made by hand. The chile relleno I added to the carne asada plate was good, but wasn't the best I've had. I like for the coating on the chile relleno to not be too greasy or thick and to have more of the salsa soaked in. This chile was a little too greasy for me. They have a variety of drink options here such as Sidral and Diet Coke. The biggest con was that we waited 40 minutes for our order! But since the food was so good, it was worth the wait. The prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and portions. They do have plenty of tables inside and a couple outside, but it was packed in there, so it took awhile to get a table. I noticed that there was constantly a line here. It's very busy so be ready to wait or maybe order your food for pick up. I look forward to coming back and trying their filete al mojo de ajo, enchiladas, and chilaquiles.

Before leaving, I saw someone get a birria taco and immediately got a little jealous. So naturally, I came back with my coworkers an hour later. GOOD GOLLY MISS MOLLY. That birria taco was . Paired with the consommé, I was in heaven. You can tell they let that consommé cook low and slow for a long time. It was rich, hearty, deeply flavorful, and full of that collagen goodness. 10/10. Would absolutely come back and bring my friends. And next time, I'm definitely not leaving without the birria.

    I went on a taco run yesterday to try to find the best taco in Whittier…read more Started off the run with a keto taco mixed with asada and al pastor and then a regular tripa taco. Keto taco - toasted/grilled cheese instead of a regular tortilla - needed to be done a little more on one side as the cheese wasn't quite toasty enough to stay in place to slightly resemble the shape of a taco. Bit hard to eat, covered my hands in grease. Asada tastes almost boiled, and this being my 2nd or 3rd time getting the Asada here, it consistently tastes like it was boiled and not grilled. Unsure of meat quality or preparation, but there are no grill marks and it's a bit chewy. Same with the al pastor. Tripa taco was bizarre. Strips of flat skin instead of the usual roundish, cylindrical shape of tripa (intestine). Usually a saltier, fattier meat than asada, which is my preference but the one here was lacking in flavor and the texture threw me off a bit. Tripa can be chewy - unless requested extra done, which is how I normally order it - but there was no saving this tripa. I think it needs to be sliced differently, the cuts made it inedible. Brother shared some of his chorizo taco and it was the better of the bunch. Red chorizo, TJ style, although it was also lacking a teeny bit in flavor... onions and cilantro to the rescue! Still, mediocre. Salsas were ok, nothing out of the ordinary. Don't think the tortillas were homemade. Service was fine, cashier takes your order, dude at the counter was chill and had a friendly attitude. Seating was limited. Mostly bar style seating but the majority was in front of a window and it had so much heat trapped from the glass that it was kind of uncomfortable. Other seats are too close to the bathroom. Good for a quick bite or just pick-up orders. Wouldn't plan a sit down/dine-in visit. Parking is scarce and has really small spots, wouldn't come if you're driving a pick-up truck or anything like that. Food was reasonably priced, which is good, however; the food was lacking so I would not return.
