Stopped in for lunch Food was great service excellent was served samples before ordering birria seasoning delicious

This was a place we were genuinely excited to try, and it absolutely delivered. I love supporting local businesses, and this one is a true GEM. We went on a Saturday around noon and were shocked it wasn't packed, because the food here is phenomenal. The experience started strong right away. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the owner, who was incredibly friendly. He asked if it was our first time, and when we said yes, he brought us samples of their birria beef. It was unbelievably tender and seasoned perfectly. After some great conversation, we ordered, grabbed our number, and sat down. We ordered four dishes for five people, the loaded birria nachos, birria tacos, quesabirria, and the birria mac and cheese. Every single item was fresh, flavorful, and filling. We were all full by the end. The meat was fall-apart tender, the consommé was outstanding, and the salsa had just the right amount of heat without overpowering anything. The mac and cheese was rich, cheesy, and cooked perfectly. The restaurant itself was spotless and clearly well cared for. This is a family-run business, and that shows in the best way. During our meal, the owner even came by with his grandbaby, and the whole place just had that warm, family vibe that makes you want to come back. Yes, it's a little more than you might expect to pay, but it is absolutely worth it. The portions are generous and the quality is top-tier, so you leave satisfied in every way. If you haven't been to Avila Taco yet, stop waiting. Do yourself a favor and go immediately. read more

Every once in a while, you run across a hidden gem. We had been hearing about this place that just opened and decided to give it a shot. It's definitely mom and Pop and they both greeted us and talked to us throughout our dining experience. A quaint little restaurant, but smelled amazing when you walk in. We ordered the Birria taco plate, chips, and queso, street corn. The chips were hot and homemade and delicious, as was the queso. The street corn was out of this world amazing. The flavors popped in your mouth. The Birria tacos are some of the best in the entire metroplex. We've been searching and have tried at least a dozen places, and this is tied with number one. The flavors are unbelievably amazing. We dipped each bite into their sauce and it was amazing every single time we took a bite. You definitely have to come here to try yourself. read more

This business used to be a food truck that frequented local events. Now they have permanent spot in Keller's eastern business district. The tacos were delicious, I had Tacos Al Pastor, my wife the Carne Asada. Both were great! This family run business treats their customers like family. The interior is modern, clean taqueria look. Our only disappointment was the salsa, it's too gringo-centric, it would be nice if they offered a hotter, more flavorful salsa. read more

What a nice surprise to find this hidden gem close by. Avila Taco is family owned and operated, originally started as a food truck and now has a retail location here in Keller. The menu has plenty of options to choose from, but they're best known for their birria meat and tacos. The pichana caught our eye as a shareable option: 8 ounces of perfectly seared and seasoned medium rare beef, along with cilantro lime rice, pinto beans, and blue sopes trio consisting of beef, chicken, and al pastor pork toppings--absolutely delicious. Additional tortillas were necessary, and they brought them out in a flash. Avila Taco is definitely a place you want to take your time and enjoy your meal, you definitely get that home cooked feeling with service as if you were a family dinner. read more

Run -- don't walk -- to Avila. The birria was absolutely delicious, and the service was spot on. The owner was incredibly friendly and even came out to chat with me, which made the experience feel personal and welcoming. A surprising standout for me was the salsa verde -- honestly the best I've ever had. I'll be ordering extra next time without question. They offer both beef and chicken birria (I've only had the beef so far, but the chicken is next on my list), and they serve it in all kinds of fun and creative ways -- including birria grilled cheese and birria mac and cheese. I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Avila Taco is a must-stop in Keller and a place I'll be returning to time and time again! read more

Best birria in the DFW area! I have been to the one in downtown Fort Worth that has a form of a Michelin star. They are good, but this place is better. Atmosphere wise it's a mix between a velvet taco and a taco casa. The staff is well informed and very kind. Try it! read more

Very good Birria grilled cheese sandwich, comes with fries. This was our first stop at Avila Taco, and we plan to return to try more of the menu. This is a small casual, order at the register spot. The service was very friendly (especially an older gentleman, wish I had gotten his name). Had a pretty good crowd for lunch on a Friday. Check it out. read more

Excellent Birria tacos! Excited to see a new taco spot at Keller Crossing I went to Availa Taco today for what I planned to be a light lunch, but I ended up inhaling three birria tacos. I've had many birria experiences and the consume is either a hit or miss, in this case it is a hit! Every bite was the perfect bite with their ratio of meat and cheese. Lightly grilled with a nice portion of consume and delicious green sauce that has a kick but is not overly spicy. This family owned brick and mortar is from the popular food truck you've likely had or seen around Keller. Just like the food truck you can expect kind and quick service (seriously quick I waited less than five minutes for my to-go order) and scrumptious eats. The brick and mortar gives you an opportunity to sit down in the casual dining room. It is fast food-ish in the way you first order and pay, they give you a number, the food is brought to your table and you dispose trash in the bin. My tacos ( comes with 3) were about $17 after tax. Highly recommend supporting our family owned and Keller grown establishment. read more

Food was great! Suggest fountain drinks and brewed tea. Not a fan of can drinks at a restaurant. Owner was very hospitable!

Very lovely place, came here the other day for lunch. Had the Asada Tacos and one Al Pastor Tacos. All were excellent, the Al Pastor is marinated in Mole as opposed to Adobo which gave it a unique taste when paired with the pineapple that sits atop. The family that runs it are very kind and friendly. read more

Wow - spur of the moment decision to try this place for something quick. The loaded fries are amazing and would order them again. The al pastor has so much flavor. The service was so great as the lady at the register was so welcoming and the older gentleman. I think he is the owner and was so good. If you haven't tried this place I would throughly recommend it for something different and tastes amazing. read more

I am skeptical about 5 star reviews when there are less then 100 reviews, but I have to say this place was a 5 star experience. First, the place was clean, modern, counter ordering. The menu is simple, but enough for everyone ti be happy. We had tacos and they were amazing! We had the birria and carne asada Tacos along with queso, and accidentally, the street corn dip. What an amazing accident! The street corn dip was something special! Seriously, everything was delicious. We were there for a late lunch so we didn't have to wait, but I have heard from an employee that it can get really busy, which makes sense given how good the food is. We live in Denton and will be driving back! read more

If you love mom and pop shops, this one should be in your list to try because their birria tacos are amazing! The moment we walked in we were greeted with smiling face and the employee, who I assume is the owner, was so happy and eager for us to try their beef that he gave us a free sample and it was delicious. As we sat down to wait for our food, more people came in and he was greeting everyone like if they have known them. Being there felt like I was at a friend house. This is definitely a place to try but I should warn you, it's a little pricey but so worth it. read more

DELICIOUS! MUY DELICIOSO! My wife, daughter and I stopped by for dinner after gymnastics class. The place was very clean and tidy. The older gentleman at the front was very nice and recommended the birria for meat choice. He also mentioned the birria tacos being really good. We took his word for it and were wowed! The birria burrito was delicious and massive! I had enough for dinner and lunch the next day! My wife's tacos were also delicious and she could only eat 2 out of the 3. So I helped her out as any great husband would do. My daughter got the chicken tender plate with fries and it was huge! 20/10 would recommend stopping by and giving them your business! This Mexican approves! read more

First time to Avila's and I highly recommend it. The menu is smaller and this allows them to perfect what dishes they have, something I appreciate.

One of my new favorites. I'm working my way through the menu and everything has been great. I've had the birria tacos, and the birria quesadillas.

Even the fries that came with it were surprisingly good for a place that you wouldn't expect to have fries. read more
