What comes off the griddle

The plates worth the drive

The dishes regulars call out by name. Cooked the minute you order, hot off the comal. The birria is the one everyone comes back for.

The reason for the drive

Dipped in its own consommé

Every order of birria comes with a cup of the broth it's braised in: deep, red and rich. Dip the taco, take the bite. The regulars say it's the best around.

Inside the taquería

Festive, bright and run by family

Terracotta walls, papel-picado strung across the ceiling, a desert mural on the wall. Juan & Valerie have been at it since the food-trailer days. Come for lunch, stay for dinner. People do.

"Great atmosphere, festive and bright, but most of all clean, with the appropriate vibe." A regular, on Google
