We came here on October 2025 Sunday morning, not knowing what to expect. And we were amazed, the tacos, quesabirria and the birria ramen were excellent. Great service, fast and clean. The ambiance is traditional and great AC. It was very comforting after a late night wedding. My kids loved the tacos and the birria. I highly recommend this place

La Birrieria Red Tacos is a taco shop in a Calexico strip mall specializing in northern Baja-style birria de res (beef birria), a flavorful Mexican beef stew made by braising beef with guajillo chiles and other spices. Here, “Birria Tacos” are referred to as “red tacos” due to the color the corn tortillas take when they’re dipped into the skimmed layer of rendered fat from the birria before they’re warmed on the plancha.

The “Birria Tacos” here are pretty good due to the birria, which has a robust home-cooked quality, while being less garlicky and less insinuating than the beef birrias I’ve had in Tijuana, San Diego, and Los Angeles. Aside from being a touch more piquant than I’ve come to expect, this is a straightforward birria without a lot of nuance, which will likely ensure its acceptance by most people who try it. The tacos are sauced with a fresh salsa roja during the taco assembly. Chopped onions and cilantro are added assuming you don’t refuse them.

You can ask for the birria tacos to be made as “Quesatacos,” essentially birria in tortillas with melted cheese. I was not a fan of the cheese used here, which I found to be a bit too funky. I’m accustomed to a milder cheese in these types of tacos. Let the flavor of the birria dominate the taco, not the cheese. I advise readers to stick to the regular tacos for this reason.

A savory “Consommé” (made from the strained beef birria broth) is provided for free with your order of tacos. It takes well to lots of freshly-squeezed lime wedges, and can be eaten like a soup, as well as used to dip the birria tacos into. If you take away nothing else from my reviews of birria taco joints, remember to ALWAYS ask for the consommé.

This is a relatively new restaurant. The owner was friendly and told me business has been good, which was not surprising to me given the quality of the Birria Tacos; he’s open everyday except when he’s catering on Saturdays. La Birrieria Red Tacos was moderately busy with locals at around 2pm on a Tuesday. This is a taco shop that ought to be visited if you’re doing a taco run (as I was) through Imperial Valley and definitely should be on your radar if you live here.

Stopped in for lunch, ordered the number one combo which was three tacos, birrieria quesadilla, and consome. Food was great, the people were friendly and the establishment was very clean. Highly recommended if your in the area.

Fresh ingredients, simple menu, phenomenal staff, lovely decor, good price. The food had excellent flavor and, in my opinion, needed salt (which means most people would find it perfect) and they have two salt shakers on each table. I’m guessing the items are low sodium for those with that concern. There’s also a hand washing station so no need to go into the bathroom to clean up which is perfect. Definitely a great find even if google maps has a hard time with the location.

This time, the birria did not have enough flavor. The flavor in this place is not consistent with other days. Sometimes it is very good and sometimes is not.
