About This Dish

What Makes Our Embirriadas Special

The Ultimate Birria Comfort Food

Embirriadas are like enchiladas, but instead of traditional red or green sauce, they're drenched in our rich, flavorful birria broth. This creates a uniquely satisfying dish where the soft tortillas absorb all the delicious flavors of the consomé while remaining tender and easy to eat. It's comfort food that warms you from the inside out.

Perfectly Layered Flavors

Each order of Embirriadas starts with soft corn tortillas filled generously with our slow-braised birria meat. We then ladle our signature birria broth over the top, allowing the tortillas to soak up all that savory goodness. The dish is finished with a blanket of melted cheese that creates beautiful, stretchy pulls with every forkful.

Fresh Toppings Complete the Experience

We top our Embirriadas with fresh diced onions and aromatic cilantro, adding brightness and crunch that balances the rich, savory flavors of the birria and cheese. The combination of textures—soft tortillas, tender meat, melted cheese, and fresh toppings—makes every bite a complete flavor experience.
