I was told this place had great tacos, so I gave it a chance instead of going to my usual spot. This was very disappointing. The birria tacos had no flavor. The meat was super dry, and the tortilla was so hard that it cut the side of my mouth. The consommé sauce was just the liquid with a little bit of cilantro, with no flavor at all. And ordered agua de jamaica, but no notification was sent about it and it was not until I got to pick up the food they told me they didn't have it and gave me a different one.

Food was delivered in 15 minute and everything was cold.m as if it's been sitting around for hours Two wrong items. Birria taco was beyond dry to the point of being inedible quesadillas was like chewing into hard cheese. Portions are ridiculously small . Would not order again. Much better options in the UES than this

Fish tacos were too salty to eat. Al pastor was chewy and quesadilla was meh.
