Fast and friendly service. Taste was good, but definitely needs more spice. We tried the Quesabirria tacos (a little smaller than expected $4.50 each) We tried the Birria quesadilla $15 (good size). Has small outside tables, covered. Plenty street parking.

The birria is very good! And the consomé was too it didn't have any fat and I like that!! I took the food to eat it in the car it was cold and although there were tables and chairs it was cold and windy so I just wanted to go in the car. They gave me mint super nice and salt but no salsa 😂😂 I like spicy so if I go back I will ask for some. I just figured that they will throw a few 😂 next time I go I will ask if I can have salsa everything else they give out without asking. Mint, cilantro, radish, lime and mints

I’m a sucker for birria ramen. And food trucks with a no frills outdoor seating area that’s shaded. It’s a cute little space and I went around lunchtime and there was plenty of room so that was perfect for me. It’s a comfortable seating area by a quiet street so it made for pleasant dining, although I’m sure most people take their food to go. I like the space here, so I like to sit and eat when I can. Especially getting their food fresh and hot it’s a real treat. Back to the birria ramen. I got the larger one the Tapatio ramen with birria. Omg it was tasty. Simple and delicious, hit the spot when I’m in the mood. Second time I came here, I got the birria bowl. I just like their birria it’s a classic taste and generous meat portions. Love the sauces on the side too. Classic birria can’t go wrong. Next time I’ll try the quesobirria I heard that’s pretty bomb too. Quick and friendly service, great food, nice outdoor seating with shade. What more can I ask for. Return customer right here ♥️

Got the Birria burrito and Quesabirria. Huge portions with a ton of meat. The meat was very tender and the flavor was good. I should have asked for a side of the birria soup/sauce it would have made the burrito perfect but I was too hungry. Definitely going to cke back and try the ramen pizza or the bowl! The food came out quickly, and came here 30 or more minutes before they close at 7pm but definitely worth a try.
