Great fun spot to try! The Birria de res (beef) is wonderful. If you have never had it...try it! Similar to a slow cook pot roast served shredded in a broth soup that is AMAZING! Or can have it in a taco...but the soup is where the flavor is.

Great spot to stop on your way into or out of Ensenada. Ask for the early bird special or lunch during the week.
