Absolutely delicious! I ordered through Uber eats, and even though they arrived cold as heck- they were still so delicious I got the birria tacos, gringa, and consomme. So so so so good! Delivery came with AMPLE Toppings. 10/10 would order/pickup again.

These are hands down my favorite birria tacos in Toronto. If anyone is wanting to try authentic Mexican street tacos, these ones are definitely it. They are so good tasting, they never disappoint. They’re served with a small birria broth on the side and a couple of salsas. The servings are big enough and they’re not as greasy as one would expect so they is great. The owners are super nice and friendly, they attend the order fast enough if you call or text 20 minutes ahead of picking the order up.

The eating area could use some updating but don't let that scare you away from the incredible food and people who make it! Amazing!

Just opened up! Might be hard to find but it’s right at the end of the Mexican indoor market area. Had the Gringa (beef and cheese) and the Birria Taco (beef only). These are slightly different than tacos because the corn tortillas are grilled as well. The Gringa comes between 2 tortillas, so it’s somewhat a combination of a quesadilla and a taco. I wasn’t too impressed with the hot sauce or the birria dip. Would’ve liked it to be a little spicier. There’s a cute sitting area in the back to eat.

Love this place, authentic delicious food and love the neighborhood. Everytime I’ll go to Kensington market I’ll make sure to go grab a bite there !

Super delicious! I came here after seeing these on tiktok and needed to try the burria tacos. It was sooo good! The only thing that would make it better is if there was just a little bit more inside the tacos the wait wasn’t too bad considering how busy they were. I’m definitely coming back! Also the sauces were rly good and the hot sauce has a good level of spice, not weak!
