This is the best birria my wife and I have had. I live that it wasn't a cheese bomb. The service was wonderful and so welcoming.reasonable prices and super cute and clean. Great use of space. What more could you want? The woman who runs the place is a GEM.

People are so friendly but I’m sorry food just not it. We got the carne asada fries and no flavor. We also got the quesabirias and looks like they were reheated. The cilantro didn’t look fresh green it looked reheated green like a green brown. Thank you for being so friendly but wouldn’t recommend the food.

I came in to try the pork carnitas. They were delicious! This place is mainly made for to-go orders but there are a few tables you can sit down and enjoy your meal! It is a family-owned and run business the service was fantastic and the food was even better! This was like getting a home cooked Mexican dinner!

★★★★★ 5.0 Berenice Rios-Vargas · Jan 2026

The food was delicious. We had a burrito and taco combo. The food was perfectly cooked and the flavors were amazing. I believe the owner was who took our order and she was very sweet and hospitable. At one point the mailman came in and she gave him a free burrito. Just great people, great service and great food. Would definitely recommend!

We’d been waiting for years for a reliable spot at the Hartnell Center, so we were thrilled when El Parrillaso on the Go opened. Their tacos and enchiladas are our go-to from an already extensive menu—those homemade tortillas really make a difference, and they never skimp on the meat. The guacamole is rich and fresh, not watered down. The restaurant is set up for to-go order (hence the name) but they have a few tables and we've enjoyed eating there. Service is fast and genuinely friendly (and they won’t hover about tips). We eat there every week and can’t recommend it enough.
