Queso Birria Taco

at Ed Fernandez Restaurant Birrieria

4.9 on Dishy

A corn tortilla sautéed in birria jus until it absorbs the rich, chile-forward broth, then topped with melted cheese, tender beef, cilantro, onions, and hot sauce. This variation showcases the kitchen's ability to layer flavors—the cheese acts as a binding agent that catches the meat and sauce, while the tortilla itself becomes infused with the stew's depth. The result is a more cohesive, almost creamy bite compared to the standard taco, with the cheese preventing the tortilla from falling apart under the weight of the filling. Food writers have singled this out as one of the best tacos they've ever eaten, praising the balance between the bold birria spices and the richness of the melted cheese.
