This is a great little taco spot. I enjoyed my to-go dinner from here. I'm not a birria taco professional, but the tacos were A+. First, the cons. I ordered a combo deluxe, which comes with 3 birria tacos, rice and beans. I didn't get the beans - I'm not a refried bean fan. Although the tacos were great, the rice was about as mediocre as it comes. It was fine, but it is really something simple this business could do to take it to the next level. It's a small thing, but the drive-through area is kind of cramped. I don't know how much the restaurant can do about this because of the location, but it's a small complaint. Also, the menu could probably be expanded slightly. But that's another minor thing because they do their birria very well. I would recommend great tortilla chips and maybe a killer sopapilla.l or churro. The pros... The birria was outstanding. They really seem to have the recipe down perfect. I really wanted to try the pizza, but I couldn't justify that much food for just me. The service was quick and friendly. The packaging was done right. The sauces were all intensely flavorful. The consume, the red and green salsas were all very tasty and fresh. I would love to try this place again and I highly recommend it.

Hands down the best birria we've had! We've tried the quesabirria, birria egg rolls, tacos and birria pizza. The flavors are great and you get so much food for the price. Very authentic sauces as well. The customer service is great!

Got the birria and the torta and they were sooooo good. The consomé was good . Tomatillo and rojo salsa were delish. My only complaint was that the rice was a little undercooked, but the refried beans were so flavorful and hit the spot.

Man!!!!! I love birria and I have tried other places that sell it. Some are really good and some shouldn’t even be sold but….that Birria Pizza here is TOO DAMN GOOD!!! If it’s one better I’d like to taste and see for myself because this place is the best I have ever had. Keep up the good work whoever is making these Birrias. Yall should be on the food network channel.

I've eaten Birria all over Texas, and this might be the best I've ever had. The tacos are loaded with meat and green and red sauce are a great compliment to the already amazing food. I will be returning on my next trip to Beaumont. Looking forward to trying the Birria Ramen. Shout out to the staff who were very nice and took care of me.
