    Ordered the steak tacos, Patricia's birria sample, and the churros to go. The steak was dried and had no flavor. I swear I could have choked. I was really excited for the birria but I can't recommend it. I ordered to go so the birria tacos were all soggy at the bottom. The flavor was kinda off to me, didn't have the beef flavor to it but it definitely had another foreign flavor. Although it was stuffed with meat and cheese, the flavor to me just threw it off. The consume wasn't good either. The only good thing was the churros. Not sure if it was because I was the first customer of the day and I got scraps and left overs from the day before.

    Came here for the first time on an uneventful Monday. You order yourself from their kiosk and that's where you'll find their menu also. The inside has a nice bar area and I loved the murals inside. It was empty on a Monday evening. I decided to try the birria brisket tacos. I received my order quickly but when I opened the box it was pretty basic birria. I noticed that the cheese was only on one side of the tortilla. Also I think it was missing the birria consome. I feel like it usually on both sides and then it's folded. The meat was not very flavorful and felt like it was missing something. I also tried the corn without tajin. It was a bit mushy but still ate it. I won't be getting the birria tacos but may be back to try different tacos.

    Come hungry leave happy Third trip here again had red birria tacos and son had 3 carnitas. The meat is excellent and the portion sizes not even comparable to other places. You'll definitely get what you pay for when you visit. The rice was better and beans looked better as well. I appreciated the offer for ice with our drinks and the service delivered with a smile. Quickly becoming a favorite for birria tacos.

    The restaurant was clearing out at about 8:00 on Friday night when we ate there. They were still welcoming guests after we got our food and left. We had chips and salsa, barbacoa nachos, and tacos. It was very filling, the tacos were loaded with cheese and the nachos piled high with toppings.

    We have waited for this restaurant to open for months. Their cinco de mayo opening was great! The street tacos tasted great! The service was polite and prompt. The ambiance was welcoming. I liked the ordering process at the point of sale systems. Looking forward to working our way through this menu!

    Greta food. Fast service. Beer in draft is the best. The stream tacos are the best

    My brother and I were driving by and saw this place off Dumfries Rd (Rt. 234) behind Popeyes. There were multiple businesses around and plenty of parking. As you walked in, you are greeted by the bartender Alex in which there were a limited selection for alcohol beverages but soon to be fully stocked. The restaurant is very clean, open kitchen concept, gorgeous hand painted collages throughout including the restrooms and also has a separate sink outside the restroom for washing your hands. The ordering process is through a kiosk system and once your order is complete, someone will bring it to your table. We ordered five items: 1) Lengua (cow tongue) tacos 2) Ruby's all birria 3) Elote 4) Churros 5) Mexican coke cola. On the tables there are two glass dispenser bottles with red and green hot flavored sauces. The napkin dispenser is located in the middle of the lobby. The lengua street tacos were delicious and tender. I added the green sauce and it enhance the flavors a little. Ruby's all birria is a combo platter which includes 3 tacos, one chicken, one brisket, one combination of brisket/chicken, a ramekin of consommé and a small churro. This platter was tasty but was missing some heat. The consommé tastes exactly like Lao op chow. I ordered the Mexican coke cola and it was surprisingly good and sweet. The elote is a street corn smothered with unique flavors including sriracha, mayonnaise, tajin and when incorporated my palate was dancing. It was a little messy but I couldn't get enough after the first bite. The churros were light, airy and had a nice crunch on the outer layer. The chocolate sauce were drizzle on top which made it a little dry but it would have been better if there were a small ramekin of that chocolate sauce for dipping. All staff members were friendly and attentive. The owners a mother and daughter team were welcoming with great smiles, humorous and wonderful personality. They also have another location in Maryland. I will definitely make another visit to try other items on the menu.

I thought the one taco per order might be small so we ordered a lot but actually the serving sizes for everything is huge!! Sweet soy sliced rib eye - 4/5 packed with soft yummy meat that's not overwhelmed in the sauce. So many veggies that made this a pretty refreshing taco! Beef birria ramen - 4/5 the consume broth seems to be mixed with the ramen powder since it was much more flavorful and delicious than the regular consume that comes with the birria tacos and quesadilla! Eggs were cooked nicely, fully cooked but bouncy still. Beef pieces were flavorful and slightly dry (most places are much drier in the soups) and was a super yummy combination with the noodles Beef birria quesadilla- 4/5 super packed with nice mozzarella cheese and so much meat! Heavy but so delicious. Consume is kinda watery. Guac seems fresh! Chicken birria - 3.5/5 very very yummy, meaty and cheesy! Consume same as quesadilla

    La Jarochita is everything. I genuinely cannot say enough good things about this place -- every…read moresingle time I go, I leave beyond satisfied, a little stuffed, and with money still in my pocket. That combo is rare and I refuse to take it for granted. The food is just incredible across the board. And I mean ALL of it. I have yet to order something that didn't completely deliver. The flavors are bold, authentic, and made with what clearly feels like actual care and love going into every dish. It's the kind of food that makes you stop mid-bite just to appreciate what's happening. And the prices? Beyond reasonable. You are getting so much food and flavor for what you pay -- it never feels like a splurge even when you go all out on the order. I find myself coming back any chance I get and honestly the hardest part of the visit is just deciding what to get because everything is that good. It's become one of those non-negotiable spots for me -- the kind of place I'll drive for and never think twice about. If you're in the Manassas area and you haven't been to La Jarochita yet, fix that immediately. You will not regret it, you will not leave hungry, and your wallet will thank you.

    Honestly I liked the authentic experience of La Jarochita but I think this place was definitely…read moreoverhyped to me. We drove out of our way to try this place and honestly it was a bit confusing to figure out where to order. There are two lines and it's not very clear which one we are supposed to get in for what. Especially because some of the items are duplicate on both menus. I noticed there was barely anyone in the "restaurant" line. Anyway, we sort of got a little bit of everything and wasn't completely brown away. I liked that they let you add your own toppings, and all of the sauces that have available were great. But the taco meats all sort of lacked a bit of flavor. Carnitas are my favorite but these were a bit inconsistent. Some pieces were very nice and juicy where others were hard to chew. I will say the place is very clean and spacious. They're pretty quick with your order as well. The food was lacking flavor for me personally. Overall, I don't think I would go back.

    La Jarochita Restaurant - They have an entire concha wall which is always an indication of good things to come. I had lunch here and their food was spot on.
