Fresh, good flavor and hit the spot! The nachos are HUGE! 2 people can share them. The tamales were yummy! Nice and hearty. The service was great. A sweet young man in high school took our order. Great to see a nice young man working and being so kind and respectful, he is being raised right! It's a small spot, no tables or anything and a small landing for 2-3 people max to grub and it was totally fine, we opted to eat there. Please support local businesses!

I ended up at Birria Ocotlon by mistake, thinking I was heading to another restaurant with a very…read moresimilar name. At first glance, the style here reminded me a lot of that other spot, but I decided to stay and give it a try anyway. The staff was genuinely great -- very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I really appreciated the customer service, which made the experience pleasant on that front. Where things fell short for me was the food. The tacos ($3.50 each) were greasy and bland, and they left an odd film on the roof of my mouth. I also tried the consomé, which unfortunately had a flavor I couldn't get past. Overall, I just didn't enjoy the meal. I respect the effort and the great service, but the food wasn't for me. I don't plan on coming back, but I do hope they continue to work on improving their recipes because the team itself was wonderful.

I was hungry and my craving directed me to stop here. It was the right stop…read more My significant other and I walked inside and were able to choose our table. We chose table 1. The menu was already at the table, so that was convenient. From the Bebidas Drinks section, they had Pepsi Products and I went with a Diet Pepsi 16oz. $2.49. The Tacos were $3.29 ea. and Served with onions and cilantro. I went with a Pollo - Chicken. The Burritos were $8.99 ea. and I went with a Chorizo - Mexican sausage. The Burrito: Served with beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream. We were given free chips, salsa, and limes. It was all excellent. The Diet Pepsi was smooth and tasty. I ended up ordering another one and it was just as good. The Pollo was great. It had a good amount of ingredients. The Chorizo was fantastic. All of the ingredients came together to form a spectacular flavor. I added green sauce to it that was at the table and it perfected it. I added red sauce to it that was at the table and it wasn't too good. The service was good. I didn't have any issues. Overall, I had a great experience here. I would definitely go again.

I don't think it's been open for too long, but it's already serving up some of the best quesabirrias and tacos de canasta I've ever had. The quesabirrias are perfectly crispy on the outside, loaded with tender, flavorful birria, and come with a rich consommé that takes them to the next level. The tacos de canasta are just as impressive--soft, packed with flavor, and exactly what you want for a quick, satisfying bite. I've been coming here every Sunday for the past month, and I've lost count of how many times I've stopped by during the week. If you're looking for a great deal, they have $1 tacos de canasta on Wednesdays, which makes it even harder to stay away. The service is friendly, the food is consistently great, and the prices are more than fair. Oh and you can grab a michelada while you're at it!
