Oh yah baby. Birria asada tacos = good Friendly people = good Located inside a gas station = good
I usually try different items every time I visit a venue. This was my first time trying the burrito and gordita. The gordita is a fried tortilla cut in half and stuffed with beans, lettuce, and protein. I ordered the chicken and it tasted great. The burrito I received was supposed to be a bowl but they spotted the mistake themselves and gave me a soft drink to make up for it. The burrito was huge and filled with barbacoa. I can't believe I this was my first time getting a burrito here. The salsas are good as well. Red salsa is very hot and green salsa is pretty mild.
So it's inside of a gas station and a convenience store and next door to a laundromat. Place that you would never think that would have a restaurant but, maybe you would lol. So it's kind of tucked away but if you know what you're looking for you'll find it. At the time that I went the sign didn't have any wording on it because of the weather, so you have to kind of know where you're going. So it's a convenience store and a gas station so you have plenty of things that you can buy to drink and eat like, if you wanted to get up beverage while you were waiting for your food. The grill isn't super large but that's okay, it's just the right amount of space. As far as a seating goes there are really not that many seats there, so you probably want to do carry out. There are some longer areas that could be tabletops and then are a couple of tables and boots, but only a handful. So if you're trying to come and sit down with several of your friends, this may not be the spot for you. I got the wings, and fries, and a beef birra and a steak birria taco. I order and waited so I know that it was fresh and right off the grill. The fries were heavily seasoned. They were a little bit soft because of the temperature that they were put into the Styrofoam so it probably didn't help but I'm not going to take off of that because that's just science. But they seasoned the hell out of them, they were good and they didn't actually need ketchup. The wings were okay, But at the same time I feel like they were too salty. There's one thing to have seasoned wings but there's a whole other thing to have nothing but sodium from the lemon pepper. So I probably would not get the little pepper flavor again honestly.. I wish there a little more crispy but there was probably because of the same reasoning that the fries were not as crispy (so can't take off for that). The tacos came with all of the trimmings that you would expect a birria taco to have. Came with the dip In a couple of sauces as well. But the dip was so good that you didn't actually need any salsa or hot sauce with it. I would get those again. Overall if you want a quick stop off in your own Buford highway, this seems like a be a good spot to get some tacos!
I came to this place based off a recommendation my friend gave me. He told me don't be put off because it's technically at a gas station lol but when I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised. The food smelled really good. The lady who took my order was very nice. I ordered chicken and I ordered beef birria tacos. Really good! I honestly did not know chicken birria existed, but it was really good. That was probably my favorite. The consome that comes with it is decent. The salsa Verde they gave you has more of a jalapeño taste to it and the saucy Roja is VERY spicy. It was overall great and I'll be coming back.
This place is a hidden gem. Located on Buford highway, within a gas station store, it epitomizes the hole in the wall experience. The food is authentic, incredibly flavorful, very quickly made in front of you, and the staff are friendly. Check out the homemade chicken tamales, the ultimate comfort food, dipped in their salsa verde or hot red salsa. Their birria options are also incredible -- we've tried the Birria shrimp quesadilla (excellent) and a variety of the birria tacos, all of which come with consomé. Parking is easy (in a gas station parking lot) and the food is inexpensive. We love this for a quick meal or authentic Mexican meal for friends!
