Great coffee! Seriously. This is the best Mexican style coffee I’ve ever had. I am not usually a fan, but their coffee was delicious. Also, this is the top spot for Mexican style breakfast. There are a lot of great Mexican restaurants in Birmingham and this one of the best.

Let’s be clear: this was a Pizza Hut, and now it’s La Tia Paisa. Don’t come expecting the decor of El Royale, or even a Chili’s. But the tacos may be better than either of those, especially on a Tuesday, when they slap a wristband on you and you can eat every taco you can hunt and kill. They’re also working on delivery—forget DoorDash, this is comida ràpida. And there’s a drive-thru. I haven’t been this excited since they introduced the personal pan pizza.
Edit: came again today (Oct 29) and got the Cali burrito and a custom fajita style quesadilla. Both were delicious, and the thicc Dia de los Muertos statuette added even bigger spice to our meal.

I just ordered the breakfast egg burrito and added steak. This burrito was big, steak and eggs were flavorful. So delicious. I highly recommend their breakfast burritos

We wanted tamales and street tacos for office lunch. Maria was great. Made us a whole menu for authentic Mexican lunch. Highly recommend …. Especially if you are bored with tasteless corporate catering! She was fantastic.

EXTREMELY RECOMMEND you try this Mexican restaurant/Taco Shop. The most closest in dishes with the Taco Shops back in San Diego, CA. I absolutely LOVED the taco shops back at home, it was the majority of my meals throughout the week. And for being in the south and testing as many Mexican spots (including ones I have not rated), this is the closest with dishes and flavors to the ones back home.

Food was amazing!! The wait was non-existent. I was greeted with a smile and Alexandra made sure my order was correct and even asked “How I enjoyed my meal?”
I received a lot of food for the value. I look forward to returning.

Location easy to find. Server was very polite. Food came out hot. Birria tacos were a little different than the ones we have here in GA but they were still very good.

After hearing commercials about this place for a few weeks, I decided to stop by, and I’m glad I did! My fresh, delicious fish taco & Mexican Coke with cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup were outstanding! A health rating of 96, and conveniently located in Homewood next to Little Caesars. I will return SOON!

Best Mexican Food in Birmingham. Period. Red salsa was spot on also. It’s authentically southern California style Mexican food and once you have that, you won’t want any other Mexican! We ordered the bean and cheese burrito and rolled tacos with chicken. Wouldn’t change a thing! The owner Maria was so sweet and you could see her passion and love for providing delicious, and authentic California Mexican food to her customers. We will be back with our entire family!!
