“After coming here once I was hooked! The food is AMAZING…your mouth will water when you smell it being cooked! BEST QUESA BIRRIAS AROUND!! Aside from the food being delicious. Raul treats you like family and has great conversations while you wait. You can place your order in advance to avoid the wait and he takes cash and Zelle. I definitely recommend stopping by! ———————————————————————— ¡Después de venir aquí una vez me enganché! La comida es INCREÍBLE ... ¡se te hará agua la boca cuando hueles que se está cocinando! MEJOR QUESA BIRRIAS ALREDEDOR !! Aparte de que la comida es deliciosa. Raúl te trata como si fueras de la familia y tiene excelentes conversaciones mientras esperas. Puede realizar su pedido con anticipación para evitar la espera y se lleva efectivo y Zelle.”
“Amazing tacos! The fried tripe was amazing. Slightly too greasy but still tastes great. The 20 tacos deal makes them a bit cheaper than ordering individually and you can choose which tacos to get.”
“Delicious and worth every penny. Their red salsa is also very tasty.”
“We stumbled upon this taco stand while running errands in the neighborhood. We tried the steak and birria taco, and they were the best tacos we ever had! The corn tortilla was pan fried, and the meat was so flavorful and tender. We want to go back to try their other items! Definitely recommend!”
“Seriously amazing food! Excellent service! How many times we drove by this place before we stopped to try it. Wish we knew how incredible it was sooner!”
“Food was delicious chef was handsome and prices were phenomenal. Definitely recommend, five starts. Try their birria tacos, they're delicious.”
“The best quesabirria tacos ever. They have champurrado, delicious. If you're in the Chicago area and want some birria tacos, this is the spot.”
“From my very first visit, I was completely hooked 🤩! The food here is absolutely incredible - the aroma alone will make your mouth water before you even take a bite 🤤🔥. The quesabirrias are hands down some of the best I’ve ever had, seriously next level 🌮💯! What really makes this place special, though, is Raul. He treats every customer like family and always takes the time to chat and make you feel welcome 😊🙌. It’s such a warm, friendly vibe while you wait. You can also call ahead to place your order and skip the line, which is super convenient ⏱️👍. Plus, he accepts cash and Zelle, making things easy 💵📲. I highly recommend stopping by if you get the chance — amazing food and even better service ❤️!”
