The Michelin Guide's review
Now hosting in Uptown since their Archer Heights location is closed, this Mexican institution specializes in a single item—birria—tender, stewed goat. In fact, goat is all that’s on the menu, though you’ll get a few options as to how to enjoy it: on a plate or in a bowl, in a small or large portion, bone-in or bone-out. The bowl option drowns the goat in a generous dose of hearty consommé, while the plate is accompanied by handmade corn tortillas for build-your-own tacos, with a small side of the broth for dipping. You can’t go wrong either way, but if you’re feeling extra decadent, go for the quesadilla, a perfect trinity of pillowy tortillas, gooey cheese, and savory goat meat goodness.
