Was pleasantly surprised at this taco joint in the mall. Absolutely loved it! Bonus that it is halal for those who only eat halal meat. There aren't many options in the mall for halal eaters. The only downside I noticed is that since it's a self-ordering system on a screen, sometimes the wait can be a while as people figure out what they want. Otherwise it's relatively quick when there's not much of a line or at an off-time. I've tried the beef and the chicken Birria and they're both phenomenal. They are a bit oily but I think that's the standard for these kinds of tacos. Really love how crispy the tacos themselves are and the meat is flavored so nicely and very tender. The consumme has great flavor and I love drinking it like a broth at the end. Price reflects mall food but it's great quality for what you're getting and something different than typical mall food. read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - Chicken and beef Birria - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

This is the second time I have been here. My friend REALLY wanted tacos and despite the fact that I did not overly enjoy my experience last time, I decided to give them a go again. This place is located in the Mall of America, 3rd floor North side. You will order on a kiosk. So as far as service goes, I really can't say. As far as prices go, I would say they are over priced, but you are also at the mall of America, so what isn't? Plenty of seating around the area. I recommend grabbing your food and then heading to the big windows so you can watch the airplanes come in! I got the same beef Birria tacos I got 2 years ago. Since then, I have been to a lot of places for Birria tacos! So when I tell you this is average at best, believe me. The food: The tacos were small. The beef was either overly fatty or burnt and dry. The taco shells are still crispy and still good. The only reason I am raising this one star, is because the mini churros were actually really good! I wish they had a dipping sauce, but I really enjoyed them! Those would be worth getting again! May be the other items are better, but the tacos here are just not bussin for me. read more

Tacos were very mid. The portions were good but the limes were very dry. You have to order your own food. Self service kiosk asking for tips. read more

What a great addition to the MOA food court options. I got the 3 beef birria tacos. They are generous with the beef and the beef consume. It was very good! The only part that I wasn't excited about is they only have 1 kiosk to order from and when there's a line, that takes awhile and if u have people who aren't techy trying to figure out the kiosk, it takes even longer! So I'm giving this location 3 stars for the whole experience. After you get your order in, the food comes out within mins. read more

It's a REALLY good street taco, but being in the mall I feel like you're going to pay for mall rent. Absolutely brought me back to food truck days but for $15/ for 3 tacos it's a bit steep for what you get Again, the food is awesome, I just would probably search for this combo at a cheaper location. Checkout is human less. But service was quick! read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - 2 out of three tacos after I ate one! - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

I read the other reviews and I was excited. I ordered the birria tacos and the consome thinking of the name. It has to be amazing right? ABSOLUTELY wrong. I guess its my fault for assuming birria in a mall would be anything else but mall food. This is why it may not be a larger restaurant. The consome is beef broth; nothing Birria about it. It seems they kept adding water to what they had there but never actually cooked anything. The tacos were shredded beef crunchy tacos with no seasoning. They were hoping the cheese would save the flavor but no. They fell flat like the movie showgirls. This right here is why people, including me complain of cultural appropriation. You screwed the entire thing up and made me hate my culture very briefly. Except the Dr pepper. That tasted like Dr pepper. So good job in serving a soda. read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - Alleged birria taco. - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

So of the quick service/fast food meals I got to try over 2 days at MOA, this was my favorite. (Not counting dessert stops, just meals.) It is located in one of the food courts of the MOA, which luckily it is on the side that has my youngest kiddo's favorite quick service/fast food option. So made it easy for me to grab meals from both places without running across the mall. You order from a touch screen and get your food either for there or Togo. Staff was friendly and helpful, and I'm sure could help you out if you need help with getting your order in. I tried the chicken birria which was really good! Also a chicken street taco with onion & cilantro which was really good, and a good option for the not as adventurous taco eater. I also got chips and guacamole, which was way to much for one person, so I shared with my family. read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Tacos were yummy but way overpriced in our opinion and they usually serve you with two tortillas because it rips easily and that way you have an extra one but they only served you with one! Had to wait for them for about 15 min. It was an okay experience. Looked like one of them was working there. read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - Beef, chicken birria tacos with consomme Beef, chicken street tacos - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

If you're at the Mall of America and craving something delicious, this is the place. These tacos stand out with tender beef packed into crispy, golden tortillas. The seasoning is rich, smoky, and balanced, with just the right kick of heat to make it addictive. Quick, friendly service--even in a busy mall setting. The prices are fair, and the experience feels authentic, yet approachable for everyone. If you're a birria lover or just looking for a standout food experience at MOA, this is a must-visit! read more

In the mall of America after walking around about 3 miles was pretty hungry! Stopped in at Bussin tacos...looked really good and I was excited as I love street tacos. This experience however was not a good experience. The tacos lacked flavor and the tortillas just fell apart. Street tacos need to be doubled People.The lack of two shells was a crucial mistake. Customer service was also horrible. They forgot both my sodas and proceeded to argue with me that I didn't order sodas.I showed the taco assembler the receipts,and he still was not convinced even though it was on the receipt.Bussin-(meaning)...something that is off da chain good! Nothing I ordered...the beef and chicken birria or street tacos were anything to even talk about today guys...maybe next time! The whole Mall of America food court seen on a Saturday is a rough atmosphere anyways! read more

For food court birria in the Mall of America, this birria was pretty bussin'! A fellow Elite recommended this spot, and since we've been on a huge birria kick, I had to give it a try. It's located on the third floor in the Culinary North on the north end of the MOA towards the back. The signage is bright and inviting - great design! The menu was very simple: essentially just chicken and beef birria and a few sides/desserts as optional add-ons. I had a bit of sticker shock seeing how much the birria cost, but figured it was probably on par with other food court options and birria. I opted for 2 beef birria tacos that rang up to around $10. Some of the signage gave me a chuckle - large signs that said "no typing inappropriate names to call for your order" in all caps and the like. They also have their menu QR code plastered along the glass, as well as requests to let them know if you want to-go boxing instead. You order on a touchscreen pad, so there isn't much human contact - except when the person preparing your food brings it out and calls your name. Service was fast - just a few minutes from ordering to getting my box. I was pleasantly surprised by how full the tacos were - at least getting some bang for my buck! I liked being able to add cilantro, onions, limes, and jalepeños for free. I thought for food court food, the beef and consommé tasted great! A nice option for birria lovers in the MOA. read more

You order through a kiosk but they staff are efficient. I observed the front counter person wiping all the surfaces. He also sneezed into his elbow and changed gloves after cleaning in order to prevent cross-contamination. The beef birria tacos I had were delicious and gooey from the melted cheese. I liked how you could customize salsas and topping. It's in the North food court at MOA. read more

They no longer have the the vegan chicken or vegan beef birria or street tacos. They are out of stock so they took it off the menu entirely. It's confusing when you see yummy vegan options on Yelp but none on the online/in-person menus Service was friendly. Management should stock more It's located on the 3rd floor in the Mall of America. Food court vibes. read more

Overpriced mid tacos that were very small. They also had poor customer service. I will not be going back.

Stopped by because a friend and I were craving good hispanic food!! The staff were super friendly and the service was quick!! The food tasted amazing and will be back whenever i'm back in town!! read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - Chicken quesadilla - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Bussin Birria is a vegan-friendly taco stand in the Mall of America. Opened by the owner of Hot Indian Foods (which closed after a long run in the Midtown Global Market), it's an interesting concept that has no traces of South Asian influence. The vegan beef nachos ($15) were great: crispy, homemade chips with a tangy cheese sauce from Herbivorous Butcher in Minneapolis. The "beef" is shredded and seasoned jackfruit and nicely done. I removed the Bussin sauce (aioli) and didn't miss it; the dish is fine without extra sauces and condiments. I also got a vegan beef street taco ($5 for one) and loved it: shredded jackfruit with cilantro an onion. I wish the taco shell were slightly better (how about using the ones from Nixta in Northeast Minneapolis?) but this was still a great taco. The vegan chicken street taco ($5 for one) tasted good, too, but has a different seasoning that left the chicken feeling dry to me. Like the beef, it's shredded jackfruit from Herbivorous Butcher. If Bussin Birria had a soy meat chicken tinga taco, and a rice milk horchata, I'd be back regularly. I hadn't been to the Mall of America in 15 years, but now that Bussin Birria is there and slinging great vegan tacos, I might go more often. read more

Service was great. The tacos were even better. I started this review before I got my order, quessabirria beef tacos. I planned on taking a picture but when I sat down, I devoured them. The tortillas are fried to perfection stuffed with beef and cheese. The sauce to dip on the side just makes it! I highly recommend as I had it for lunch and dinner. read more

Bussin' Birria Tacos - A very small queso birria taco - Tacos Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

Tasty for sure. When they expanded this food court, they opened up vendor spaces that are very, very far from the front and are probably missed by many shoppers. Don't miss this one! Based on my one visit, I do recommend that you check them out. I got chicken birria tacos with a choice of two salsas, and a choice of onions & cilantro. You order on a tablet; there are visible signs explaining that they don't take cash or American Express, or, for that matter, offensive names on the order. They got my order prepared quite quickly, and these were pretty small tacos for the price. Good, fried tacos though. And some people like a lot of cilantro, but I like the modest amount they gave me. The consomme was very tasty. Typical Mall of America prices, though; elevated because they have more expensive leases. But honestly, if you're window-shopping this food court and are curious, you should try it out. Also, if you're in the market for more of a snack than a meal, maybe try just one or two tacos. read more

I've been wanting to try birria tacos so I'm glad I found Bussin Birria Tacos at the Mall of America. It's in the same food court as Shake Shack, to give some reference. Walk up and scan the QR code to get their menu and decide what you want from a distance or walk up to the kiosk and place your order on what looks like a super size IPad. They don't just have birria tacos! They offer street tacos, nachos, quesadillas, tortilla chips with various dips, just to name a few options. They also offer a whole VEGAN menu! I had a chicken street taco, a chicken birria taco and a Mexican Coke. It was so good! The birria especially had great flavor. I wish I can try the whole menu, like now! read more

We LOVED it! We ordered two beef and two chicken. For free we added cilantro, onions and lime. We really don't understand what people are talking about with the food being bland. These tacos were seriously delicious. People also seem to have an issue with the ordering process. We had none. To place your order, you either scan the QR code on your phone or there is a kiosk. We loved it because it's fast and you don't have to talk to a living soul if you don't want. Anyway, we will definataly return read more

The best meal we had in the mall. Delicious tacos. Had the beef street tacos and the beef birria. The salsa, pickled red onion and jalapeños were very fresh and flavorful. Staff were friendly and quick. read more

We noticed this place at MOA and my husband is a taco fanatic so he had to try them! Their ordering is a bit different in that you order on a screen and don't interact at all really with the line person who is setting up order bags. It did take the three people ahead of my husband about 10-15 minutes to figure out how the ordering system worked. It was about 20 dollars for 4 tacos- keep in mind these tacos are smaller than a standard hard shell taco. The wait for the food was also about an additional 10 minutes so overall it took my husband about a half hour to sit down with his food! He LOVED the tacos and the consommé it was served with. I nibbled on their chips and Queso and the Queso was very good! You can tell all of the ingredients are fresh and not frozen and it's good quality food. All in all, my husband will 100% be returning- but just keep in mind the wait can be a bit since they make it fresh and you're paying for quality and flavor! read more

The whole experience was just meh. You can only order from your phone, which is fine, but the ordering process within the web browser was not smooth. From there it took quite awhile to get my food which was surprising considering I could see at least 3 workers not doing anything. The food itself actually had pretty decent flavor, but was not even warm after the wait. The consome also did not taste fresh. In an area with plenty of other options to order from and sit at, I find it hard to believe I'd go back. read more
