What People's Say About Place

Super surprised so fresh and authentic!! Very reasonably priced , super friendly staff food was served fast and hot !! Excellent Job !

This is my favorite place for Mexican food in Washington. Try the Birria! Note, the pizza is large enough for multiple people. Think a large pizza. The pineapple Agua fresca is amazing!

Great food full of flavor! Ordered two pizza birrias, came with all the different salsas, guacamole, crema as well. First time here and the staff were friendly and quick with my order. I recommend getting a pizza birria!

I’ve been here several times. The food is tasty! The staff can definitely be more friendly, sometimes its hit or miss. The atmosphere is pleasant. All customers keep to themselves. Loud place with the music videos playing, but like I said, the food is good. Have the cheesy (quesabirria) tacos, also the salsa verde is great. They have Mexican sodas here, and their water tastes good. All in all, I keep coming back to this place for a reason!!

This place is now a favorite of mine! A friend suggested it because I’m a Muslim and they served Halal beef here! I was surprised Very glad they do. The food is amazing, the staff are all very nice, the food was prepared quickly, and I just love the decor inside! I really recommend a stop by here especially if you stick to Halal food, but want to have some great Mexican food for meal.

I was craving authentic Mexican and did a google search near me, which brought up this local restaurant. We got there around 3:30pm on a Saturday, which at the time wasn’t busy. The restaurant was clean, we sat at a table towards the back where it looked as if they were getting ready to expand the seating to that side of the building. The restrooms were clean and it was nice that the air-con flow was just as strong considering the heat these days. I would say an hour into enjoying our food, the dinner rush was starting to kick in as there was a decent line and I could hear the mobile order bell going off almost every 15 minutes once we got our food (which took at most 6minutes after ordering/paying). The food was absolutely beyond good! We had a little of everything to try variety (Birria Taco, Dorado De Birria, Cheese Birrira, Plato De Quesabirria, Consome, Birria Ramen) and definitely enjoyed it all! We appreciated that they had a self serve refrigerated bar at no extra cost for the pickled fixings, salsas, limes, onions, etc… You can’t go wrong with any of their tacos; either with cheese or without… The beef in any of their tacos was so tender & the consome was flavorful all on its own… I had to get more of it and ordered more in the form of their Birria Ramen Noodles (definitely the highlight of our late lunch). We finished off with a Mangonada and Churos to go… All I can say is there was none left once the kids got their hands on them … For the great flavorful food; the price was even better! Our entire meal: 3 Appetizers, 2 Entrees, 2 Deserts, 2 drinks was just $60 before tax and tip. We definitely will be back either to dine in or order for take home!

It was pretty good, nice looking. Although it looks like they spent to much time on looks than the quality, customer service was great, very clean and modern. They could do better but overall great place to get a taste of Mexican food.

Great Mexican food. They also have their own version of ramen, hamburger and fun desserts such as mango and churros in a cup with a sundae and cherry! A very unique experience. I would come back and try other dish as well. Their menudo hits the spot, better than Azteca! Staff is friendly and helpful. Atmosphere is quiet and spacious. Parking is easy. We waited less than 10 minutes for 4 large orders, they are quick. Food served warm and delicious.
