I had the birria tacos and they were absolutely amazing. Very generous portions, great flavors, and the Consommé was legit. I’ve seen other reviews rating this restaurant low because of the rough atmosphere, and I disagree. I went by myself in the middle of the night, and had a great experience. It was an adult atmosphere, many drunk people, but I still received great service and quality food. Wouldn’t recommend for a family, but definitely for a group of friends. The restaurant itself was clean and had great music.
