After reading the other reviews, I ordered the birria chicken tacos and decided to add a chicken quesadilla to the order as well. I thought the extra cost to add the sour cream and pico was sort of pricey, but everything tasted absolutely phenomenal!!! It was so good, that even though I was full, I couldn't stop eating! I would recommend everyone try this place at least once. Trust me, that's all it will take to get hooked & find yourself coming back again for more!

The meat in the Birria was delicious but the quesadilla was very greasy. The consume was flavorful but didn't taste like a typical birria consume, it was quite watery. The guacamole appetizer ($15) was absolutely not worth that much money.. you don't get that much of it and it was severely lacking in flavor (and salt). I also got a side of nacho cheese sauce to dip my chips in (which they don't give you many of) and it was SO bland.. I added some of the green salsa to it and it made it way more palatable. Probably won't order from here again.

Iam a big fan of Mexican food. I eat barria tacos almost once a week. They're one of my favorites. These were by far the worse ones. Mainly because there was barely any meat and toppings and the flavor just wasn't there.
The elote in a cup was disgusting and I threw it in the trash.
I'm only giving it a one star because it came fast.

Everytime I come to Miami, this is my first spot. This is consistently the best Birria I have had and the empanadas are excellent!
