About This Dish

What Makes Our Quesabirria Special

The Viral Sensation Done Right

Our Quesabirria has become a Calgary favorite for good reason. This dish combines the beloved quesadilla format with our signature slow-stewed birria, creating a handheld masterpiece that's crispy, cheesy, and packed with authentic Mexican flavor. It's the dish that's taken social media by storm, and we're proud to serve one of the best versions in the city.

Perfectly Fried Corn Tortilla

We start with authentic corn tortillas, which we fry on a griddle until they develop a beautiful golden-red color from the birria fat. This process creates an irresistible crispy exterior while keeping the inside soft and pliable. The tortilla becomes infused with the rich flavors of our birria, adding depth to every bite.

Loaded with Birria and Cheese

Each Quesabirria is generously filled with our slow-stewed birria meat—tender, flavorful beef that's been braised for hours in our signature blend of dried chilies and spices. We add a generous portion of melted cheese that creates those perfect stretchy cheese pulls you see on social media. Served with consomé for dipping, it's a complete flavor experience.
