After getting some good exercise in this morning I was looking for some good fast food for lunch. I stumbled upon the Taqueria and it caught my eye. I love birria so I got the Quesabirria tacos with consomme. It was better than I expected and tasted authentic as I know it. The cashier (I'm guessing owner) was polite and smiling and the food was quick and very hot. They have a couple tables at the exit of the drive thru and I sat there and ate my lunch. I would definitely come back again. This is inside a Chevron but the place was clean. They mentioned they do lunch in the parking lot Friday -Sunday and also that I should try the tamales.
