While tacos may be the star, Birria Barrio's creativity shines with their signature Birria Ramen and Birria Mac & Cheese. These dishes take comfort food to the next level by fusing Mexican flavors with American classics. The Birria Ramen features Tapatio noodles loaded with slow-cooked beef, onion, lime, and cilantro—topped off with house-made salsa for a spicy finish. It's a warming, hearty meal that fans say is great day or night. Equally popular is the Birria Mac & Cheese, which balances cheesy goodness with the savory depth of birria consomé. With a touch of lime and onion, it's rich, flavorful, and surprisingly satisfying. These aren't just sides—they're main-event dishes for anyone looking to switch up their taco routine without losing that bold birria flavor. It's fusion done right, and customers can't get enough.
One of the most buzzed-about items at Birria Barrio is the Grilled Cheese con Consome—a sandwich that's far from ordinary. Using thick slices of Texas toast, the grilled cheese is loaded with birria beef, melted queso, cilantro, and onion. The edges are crisp, the inside is gooey, and it's served with a generous cup of consomé for dipping. The result? A decadent, cheesy, meaty explosion of flavor that's unlike anything else in town. Even regulars are surprised by how addictive this sandwich can be. It's frequently recommended by both staff and reviewers, with many calling it their favorite menu item. If you're not in the mood for tacos or ramen, this is the perfect indulgence that still delivers on the birria flavor you came for. Bonus: it's big enough to split—but you probably won't want to.
Birria Barrio offers generous portions at prices that keep customers coming back. Most meals fall in the $10–$14 range, with items like the Keto Taco at just $6.99 and sides of rice or beans for $2.

These tacos slap hard! We ordered the #1 Quesabirria tacos tonight and they blew us away. I will definitely be going back… soon!
I don't do reviews. But this place deserves one, absolutley the best Birria I've had so far in San Antonio 10/10. I live over an hour away and its more than worth it for these tacos.
Loved it, had them three days ago and the birria tacos were delicious and the cooks made them in a timely manner when they're were many ppl in line ahead of me. The presentation of the tacos were not messy and how they were set up to go was convenient. I will definitely be returning.
The food was so good with reasonable prices. Me and my friend got the queso birria. We got it to go and when we finally got to our hotel at 1am, we sat without anything to each other and just ate the whole thing then passed out peacefully. We slept so good tht night. 10/10
Worth every dollar!!! This place is soooo good!! I was skeptical bcs I don't like to try new food… but omg this food was very delicious, food was warm the tacos were just crispy!! Not greasy at all and the meat was loaded with cheese and the orange sauce!!!!! Man it was worth it!!!
Don't let the slight look of surly contempt on the guy's face who takes your order put you off. He expresses his love for you through his incredible birria. I swore I'd never go back after the first time. Then I tasted it. Now we eat there least twice a month and crave it five more. The consommé and salsas are brilliant, too. Eat here.
Yummy late night food! Loud music makes it hard to hear and order but otherwise cool atmosphere. Surprisingly busy at 10pm.
Absolutely amazing!!! Took the family on a whim, after sightseeing the Alamo. About 11 min drive. We ordered The Quesabirria, Birria, and Mac and cheese birria. And the whole family loved it. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
I've never had Birria tacos in San Antonio so I don't have anywhere to measure em against but these were seriously amazing. The meat was so tender and the tortillas weren't super greasy which is something I really dislike about some Birria taco places. They also give you some kind of creamy orange sauce/salsa situation that was so good. I will definitely be coming back here! Also I think 3 tacos for $12 is a great deal
