Taqueria Y BBQ

Traveling through on way to Atlanta and discovered this hidden gem via its reviews. Incredible! I ordered a birria lamb burrito with cheesy rice, all in a crispy homemade tortilla. Sauces included chipotle peanut butter hot sauce, a lovely mild cactus sauce, an avocado sauce, and a sundried tomato sauce. 🤤🌯 My husband ordered carnita tacos, which were topped with crunchy chicharróns and avocado. Everything was beyond delicious. I've never even seen lamb on a Mexican menu and am so glad I tried it — very tender, not overly rich nor gamey as lamb sometimes is. We were greeted, coked for, and served by a nice chef from Sonora — Gabriel. Proudly authentic, lovingly made cuisine. If you love unique flavors and friendly people, this is a must try.
