“Excellent Mexican food.”
Excellent Mexican food! Doesn’t look anything special on the outside, but they serve some great food. Very nice staff, prompt service, and a clean environment. I’d like to rave a little about the Quesa-Birria here… I’ve never had Birria (goat meat) before, so wasn’t sure if I’d like it. I ordered it in a regular taco, and it was good enough. Similar to steak. Then I tried the Quesa-Birria, and boy oh boy, it was delicious! The picture shows what it looks like. So, so good. They serve a bit of the meat broth with it for dipping, but it makes a good soup, too. Just fantastic stuff, I’d definitely order it again.

“Best tacos in the area.”
Best tacos in the area! Carne asada, birria, lengua, cabeza. Chorizo… get them all. Solid size tacos so you are good with 3-4. Reminds me of Little Village south side tacos.

“This place is amazing.”
This place is amazing! Friendly service and delicious food. Their white queso was great (and is a hard item to find in Chicago). We loved the horchata and the generous portion. Their quesabirria goat tacos were so crispy, cheesey, and rich. Highly recommend coming in!

Rica birria y cabeza! Good portions. The taco de cabeza was really good. Birria con consome as well. Quick service, friendly staff. Highly recommend for a yummy lunch. Apparently open late too. And also good prices!
