About This Dish

What Makes Our Birria Tacos Special

The Art of Authentic Birria

Our Birria Tacos represent the heart and soul of traditional Mexican cuisine. Originating from the state of Jalisco, birria is a beloved Mexican dish where beef brisket is braised to perfection in a savoury, flavourful stew until juicy and tender. At Birria Cantina & Grill, we honor this tradition while bringing our own authentic touch to every taco we serve.

Slow-Cooked to Perfection

What sets our birria tacos apart is our commitment to the slow-cooking process. Our beef is braised for hours in a rich blend of dried chilies, tomatoes, onions, and aromatic spices including cumin, oregano, and cloves. This patient preparation results in meat that's incredibly tender and packed with deep, complex flavors that can't be rushed.

The Complete Experience

Each order of our Birria Tacos comes with your choice of traditional corn or flour tortillas, generously filled with our signature slow-braised beef, and accompanied by our house-made consomé—the rich, flavorful broth that's perfect for dipping. The combination of crispy-edged tortilla, succulent meat, and warming broth creates an unforgettable taste experience that keeps our guests coming back for more.
