    Birria Tacos
    Beverly S.

    This review is so overdue! I've had this place easily 100 times since discovering it a few years ago. Initially I lived in Round Rock and this was my weekend go-to since moving to Elgin I visit less frequently. Today I had a craving, this is hands down the best Birria in town. Service is always great. Ordered 4 Birria tacos and a small consommé. The consommé is full of flavor and has meat in it so it can be eaten with the Birria or as a soup. Also the best menudo in the city. It's ducked off behind Dreamers so if you moving too fast you'll miss it but it's def worth a try..you'll love it.

    The food was good, and the lady who took our order and made the food was super friendly. But it's definitely overpriced for the portion sizes.

    Nice seating area

    Indulging my newfound passion for Birria tacos, I found this place on a list of Austin's best, so I went for lunch on this warm and windy December day. The setting is fun, a parking lot across from Chinatown Center on North Lamar. There's easy parking and covered tables. Service was friendly and presented no challenge to my limited Spanish. I was there for the Birria Tacos, and liked that he asked how many I wanted. Other places have had a set plate of three. I ordered two. I like the consommé I've had for dipping on the side of previous tacos, so I asked for a small. For a drink, a Topo Chico. The menu posted was tattered and torn, with no posted prices, but at a taco truck, I figured it wouldn't be much. The tacos were tasty. The flavor was deep and complex, the cheese nicely gooey. I wished the outside had been grilled to a crisp like I've had at other places, but it was no big deal. The side of consommé was bigger than the tiny dip I was used to, about the size of a small coffee cup, and full of tasty chunks of meat and onion. I was pretty pleased with my lunch. But the bill was a surprise. 21 dollars!? Turns out the tacos were $4 each, which is fine. My "side" of consommé was a hefty $8. More than I bargained for, but I took most of it home and it will make a light lunch. But $5 for a bottle of Topo Chico? Yikes! I got a pretty good lunch, and learned a very good lesson. If the prices aren't posted--ASK!!

    Beef cheek tacos, chicharron tacos and birria tacos
    Jocelyne V.

    Don't walk, run to this food truck! You know it's legit when the menu is only pictures and you're trying to guess half of it. If you had to only order one item, you have to try their birria tacos : grilled crispy outer cheese shell, gooey melted cheese and birria meat inside. Their consommé was tasty and had deep infused flavors. My husband tried their beef cheek and chicharron tacos as well, just as delicious. We officially found the best birria tacos in Austin and will be back often!

    Revolting. WHY ARE YOU NOT EMBARRASSED!!! Disgraceful. I spent $100+ here giving them multiple chances but won't be back again. If you don't have eggs today, just say so. Or are they just getting by on people who come once and never return? Paid $10 (plus tip) for 3 Migas tacos that were 95% fake velveeta-style cheese with specks of egg and tortilla chips for decoration and a solid mass of what ever that cheese product is made of. No joke there could not have been even one whole egg split among the 3 tacos, maybe 1/2 an egg literally on the top to partially disguise the cheese. Which visibly resembles shredded Mexican velveeta not entirely melted in spite of asking for un poco dorados. Thanks for returning the $10 tho. Won't be back. Another day, spent $20 for 5 tacos, the 3 chicken tacos had 1.5-2 oz. of meat to be generous each and 50% or more was whole chunks of boiled chicken skin.

    Birria tacos

    First time to stop here and I've been passing it even before they had moved here. I picked up the birria tacos and dear god they were great. Full of flavor and the consume for dipping was also great and flavorful. I definitely plan to try some of their other food. I downed one taco before I took a picture.

    Our empty stomachs and cash-filled pockets were ready for a taco truck crawl down North Lamar today. But we got blissfully stuck at our first stop, Taquito Aviles! Mario, the delightful owner, recommended the goat tacos with an accompanying goat stew. We also got beef enchiladas with Chile con carne, elote from the gods, and a fish taco. Elote and goat stew, is my new last meal before I die or the meal I could eat everyday for the rest of my life. This glimpse into heaven is soulful, delicious and accepts credit cards.

    Birra Tacos with Queso and small Consume
    Chanel M.

    Felt like tacos yesterday so I visited for the first time in awhile. We ordered 5 Birra Tacos with Queso, 2 small cups of Consume and a Can of Coke which came out to $24. The food was delicious! My daughter later decided to try their Pineapple Aguas Fresca and that was amazing.

    Paige M.

    The owner greeted me right away and he was so kind, while I was waiting I got to try the #20 & my white taste buds were shot to cloud 9! He's got some great recipes and the family that was having dinner there would agree, the kiddos seemed to like the food & neighborhood cats in the area (as did I). There's plenty of table space and it's nice & clean. Thank you Mario!

    I tried the Birria Tacos here and OH MY GOSH I have not stopped thinking about them. They were so yummy and the service was great! The food truck is run by the sweetest man and he was so kind!! This place is amazing and you definitely need to try it if you're in Austin!

    Barría tacos in goat and al pastor, medium goat consumme (more flavorful), shrimp and barbacoa tacos, a tostada and elote
    Uyen T.

    Hidden gem but big player in the birria taco game. This taco truck over by MT supermarket was very good. The owner was so kind and gave helpful recs. He even gave us a free sample of the beef consume! We got the OG goat birria tacos and then a barbacoa birria tacos (apparently you can get almost any taco birria style?). I was originally very confused but that's what the owner made it seem like. Birria for those wondering is fried tacos (kinda like quesadilla?) that you then dip into a flavorful broth to make it extra yummy. Currently they have goat consume (the broth). I am typically not a fan of goat meat but it really worked here because it has nicer flavor profile. It didn't smell like typical goat meat but was so sweet and flavorful. I may have liked it better than the barbacoa! We also got a tostada which was also super good. As well as the elotes. Everything was highly recommended. Don't forget they also have a cooler by the window for all their different salsas! I tried them all! Definitely will be coming back here again for my birria taco cravings.

    Birria tacos were perfectly tasty! The only thing was that I didn't get the broth that comes with it unless you order it separately.

It was my first time trying Sonoran hot dogs so it was a lot to take in with the different flavors in every bite. It's very much a loaded hot dog and has all the yummy ingredients you'd want with the birria soup on the side to dip. Very tasty, the bacon wrapped hot dog was really good on its own, but put together, you have yourself a savory flavor bomb in your mouth. Their fries are also something to rave about. The sauce has a nice garlic flavor with some heat kick to it. Their agua fresca was very refreshing, they change the flavor on a weekly basis. I would like to return to try their burritos and tacos. This is a food truck but there is a covered outdoor seating area with several tables and chairs nearby.

Never had it before but it did not disappoint. The cut is fatty since it's the head but the meat was tender and delicious. Paired with the homemade tortillas and salsa it was a 10 outta 10. The staff was so kinda and I was able to tour where they cook all the meat. The time and effort that is put into making the food is a true work of art. The TENDERISM was so real .

I ordered the taco sampler, consommé, and two lattes. The staff were friendly, and the wait was surprisingly short, we received our food within about 10 minutes. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of not checking the order before leaving. They forgot the consommé, and both lattes were extremely sweet and honestly didn't taste like they had any coffee or caffeine in them. My wife and I ended up throwing them away. To be fair, maybe we messed up by ordering coffee from a taco spot. The tacos themselves were just okay. They come pretty plain, so you have to add the cilantro, onions, etc. yourself. The meat was tender, but unfortunately, I found a bug in one of my tacos. That completely killed my appetite, and we ended up throwing the rest of the food away. Overall, it felt like a waste of $55. The staff were friendly and the service was quick, but between the missing consommé, disappointing lattes, and especially finding a bug in my food, the experience was ruined for us.

When we went our choices were $9-$10 donut base desserts. I say base because the toppings cover up the donut visually. Despite that, there's no covering that scrumptious taste and texture. Wowaweea. Yes, you feel your cells expand and pants tighten and it is for sure run club pre and post, but quite worth it. These divine donuts have that cakey interior I love so much. We had the Puddin': cream cheese icing, vanilla pudding, fresh bananas with nilla wafers. According to the menu. Ours didn't have any nilla wafers and the presentation was uneven, hence the four stars. I didn't miss the wafers. The icing and pudding were one goopy topping and the bananas slices were half scattered slices and half banana chunk that I had to separate. Side notes: Gourdough sits on a corner with parking spots that are not free. There's a pay via QR code so you'll need a phone or something to scan that. Boo for digital shackles. Next note- I feel like this is a low key meet up spot. Like the way they tried to make the first train cars on the MTA the singles car? There was a series of singles getting doughnuts and they were a little done up for the occasion. Who knows. With the little IG ready love seats and doughnuts made for sharing, you could walk away with extra sugar.
