This place is great! We will keep coming back. Food is good, service is good, and everyone is very friendly!

Wowzer!! This place was hand down the most authentic Mexican food I’ve had since I’ve lived in Texas! The barbacoa was moist and flavorful paired with a homemade corn tortilla! The Cheese enchiladas were so tasty! Not to mention the rice and beans man o man! Everything was so good! Ooh I almost forgot to mention the horchata was freshly made not from a package Amd it seriously makes a difference tased just like my grandmother’s! I can’t wait to come back and try their birria tacos! Someone else was eating them and they looked so yummy! Definitely going to be back often! A++

Best Birria tacos I've had. Reasonably priced. 4 Birria tacos with consume & salsa for $13. Their salsa Verde is amazing. You can call in an order for faster service. Inside seating is less than 20. I can't wait to try more of their food. Very friendly staff. Bilingual.

My husband and I both enjoyed everything. We ordered Agua Frescas, I had melon and he had frutas, both delicious. I enjoyed the fajita enchiladas with verde sauce, he loved the Bistek Encebollado meal. We'll definitely be back to try more! I forgot to take pictures before we started eating, lol.

The food is always delicious and very great customer service I love it there

This is the second time coming here and if you want authentic Mexican food, this is the place! The food is amazing and the portions are great. I ate the birria fries and they are delicious! Come and see for yourself!

It is my first time at Taqueria La Mexican. We ordered to go so I can't rate the atmosphere. The Quesabirria tacos were great, and reasonably priced. I'll have to go back and try their other food. The only bad thing is the food is so good, they will run out of Birria.
