Not sure how it happened, but birria was shoved to the forefront of food trends for some time and El Cora is the best of them.
El Cora is located inside a gas station. Enough said. You know when a food establishment is located inside a market or gas station, it’s some good eats.
You order, pay and wait the agonizing, what seems like forever wait. The wait is long but totally worth it, as you watch the ladies cook up all that deliciousness. Most quesabirria tacos are a greasy, soppy, soft mess. The quesabirria here is cooked low and slow, so they came out crispy and stayed crispy. They load so much cheese, you get a nice cheese pull when biting into the tacos.
They serve goat (chivo) or beef (res), but the goat is much better. The consomé has so much flavor and hunks of meat, you’d think you got a side of soup. Their salsa has some good heat to it.
Whenever I’m in the mood for birria, this is the spot I go to. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s still as good as the first time I tried them. Consistently delicious!

Much welcomed to find this Gem in a gas station of all places. The quesabirria tacos with goat(the real way). and consume were amazing. I’m so glad I found them. I do feel they are the best in town. Will be back.

Birria tacos are FAT and FILLED with MEAT!!! Sooooo DELICIOUS. I arrived to the place and it’s inside the gas station. Open at 10 and I ordered right away. Waited for about 10-15 minutes and thinking to myself I REALLY hope these are good. WELL it didn’t DISAPPOINT at all. For 4.50 for beef or 5.00 for goat, I choose the Beef 4 of them. OMG Fresh off the grill hot and ready to be cooled by my breathe. The meat was tender and the tacos were a HUGE portion. The tacos didn’t feel or taste like they were oily and the presentation was beautiful. The staff wore mask and gloves.

My chips were stale, they had no jalapeños , the agua horchata is powder mix and they only had large available. The two ladies were trying to flirt inappropriate with my husband and then talked bad about another women who came in to buy food. Asked about other food but they didn’t have bread for tortas either. Won’t return just because of the stale chips.

If restaurants dated this would be a reverse catfish.
Hung over from last night, we stumbled on this place. I was hopping for a nice restaurant, but when I pulled up I noticed it was a gas station. At first I was skeptical and was not down to eat at a gasstation. Low key nasty. But I went in and ordered queso taco conbirria and consome. The food was pricy but amazing! I know birria and this place has the best birria tacos and consome hand down. I’m glad I stumbled in here.

Lady is nice here. But man for real. The tooth sucks. I am from the motherland Jalisco. And I ate some pretty jacked the food before. That means I have to say I am a pretty good professional about food here. It’s just not that good. And it’s pricey. I don’t recommend it.

These are prime gas station tacos. I had seen some good reviews, so we drove there straight from the airport, and it did not disappoint. They were so kind and helpful in getting us set up with the right selections to really enjoy both beef and goat quesa tacos with consomme. Highly recommend, we will go back in a heartbeat if we get the opportunity.

Great authentic tacos. Hard to find crispy grilled corn tortilla – perfect blend of crispy and chewy. Be sure to get the consume dip – amazing. The people are extremely friendly and welcoming. They’re working hard to carry on a tradition after the original folks ended. Best of ll it’s in a gas station! No need to dress up. BEST TACOS AROUND!
