    If you’re even considering this place for your meal, you MUST come here for the birria. It was genuinely life changing. The service was excellent but most importantly the birria tacos meat paired perfectly with the spices and the tortilla plus some surprises (bone pieces, chunks of fat, bird noodles, etc.). Upon leaving the restaurant we were mind blown

    Honestly, it was just ok. The drinks and cocktail were ok. Not great. Not bad. The sodas came with ice and were cold, so that was good.

    If you're in CDMX and love bold flavors, this place is a must. The meat selections were top-tier—juicy arrachera, tender ribeye, T- Bone, and quesadillas that melts in your mouth. The tacos were next-level, loaded with flavor and served on handmade tortillas.

    Excellent birria and arrachera tacos with salsa, pico, beans and consomme. The birria tacos had a few gristles in them but otherwise solid. The steak was excellent and buttery good.

    A simple but divine experience, at a very cheap price. If you want authentic Mexican food and atmosphere, this is a place you should treat yourself to if you happen to be closeby.

    Come with an appetite because this is filling! I got the birria pierna and couldn't finish but it was very good. Needs the salsa and lime to cut the fattiness. The silent hero at this place is the corn tortillas. They must be made in house because their corn flavor was unreal

    Maybe my favorite birria in CDMX. Meat, tortillas, and consome all delicious. Very good limonada too
