This is one of the best places to get enchiladas. The food here is exceptionally well prepared and taste extremely good, I can only tell you how good the food tastes here but you have to experience it for yourself! It is a bit small and awkward if you are with a big group though. But this is one of the best taco places in all of Mexico City.

One of the few places in the city, were you can still find traditional handmade fixed on the spot "birria". Five of five no questions, you can find from traditional birria, to vegan quesadillas and steak tacos

Conocí recientemente este lugar y fue magnífico. El servicio muy rápido y muy amable la atención. Las porciones de comida muy adecuadas para el precio, lo único que no me agrado del todo es que las quesadillas, los huaraches se hacen fritos y vienen con mucha grasa. Tal vez por rapidez se elaboran fritos pero mejoraría bastante más el sabor si se hicieran al comal. Por lo demás este lugar es una excelente opción para comer birria y algunas garnachas.

Amo estos tacos sin duda mi top 1 de tacos en general. (Birria con nervio pidanlo)

The entrance is dangerous for customers since they have you come in through a very narrow opening between an active hot comal (kind of quesadillas grill) and a counter. Inside it does not look sanitized, there were some flies around, too. The food, the minimum acceptable. ERRATA: thus is an EDITED comment. Sorry for my previous positive coment I had posted about "Lupita". I thought I was grading the Birria over Xola, between Isabel la Catolica and Bolivar. That is a good one that I can recommend.

La birría es muy buena (en caldo o en tacos). Las quesadillas que venden por la mañana son riquísimas (la de pollo y la birria con queso que aquí se llama "tapatía" son una delicia). También por la mañana hay tacos de guisado (chicharrón, rellena) que son muy ricos. Tienen cerveza y aguas frescas. Aunque pasa desapercibido, tienen los mejores tacos de costilla, de bistec, de longaniza y de suadero de toda la colonia Álamos. El menú de cuaresma (chiles poblanos y cuaresmeños rellenos de queso, ejotes con huevo y caldo de camarón) es buenísimo también. La atención de la familia que es la dueña del lugar es inmejorable.

La mejor birria de res que vas a probar en tu vida. La atención excelente. Ojo con no pedir nada con chile. Mejor echar la salsa que uno prefiera porque ahí el picor es en serio! Quesadillas excelentes. No esperes algo fresita. Es un lugar limpio pero si quieres lujos mejor ve a la plaza de tu preferencia. Aquí se viene a comer birria!
