" If I could give a zero, I would. My experience was really bad. We waited over an hour for our food just to receive the wrong order twice! The birria was dried out, the consomé lacked flavor, and the employees seemed overwhelmed and uninterested in fixing our issue. Won’t be returning. Save your time and money! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family has loved this place ever since we discovered it two years ago. The birria is always tender, juicy, and full of flavor. I often order the tacos dorados, which are perfectly crunchy and come loaded with meat. Admittedly, the place can get very crowded during the evenings, but that just speaks to how popular it is. The staff has always been friendly, though sometimes rushed. Pro tip: ordering takes longer but it’s always so fresh! Cannot recommend enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Simply put, Birrieria Gonzalez is a gem in the culinary landscape. Every bite of their birria tacos transports you to the heart of Mexico. I opted for the quesatacos and the addition of consomé is a must! It's rich, flavorful, and totally satisfying. The price might seem a bit high than expected, but the experience is worth every penny. The only downside was the long wait, but it was definitely worth it. Who can complain about fantastic birria? I’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Birrieria Gonzalez after all the good things I’ve heard, but I have mixed feelings after my visit. To begin with, the birria lacked that traditional depth of flavor I was expecting, and I found the salsa to be overly spicy without much taste. The service felt disorganized, which made my dining experience quite frustrating. I think they might be having an off day, but it was disappointing overall. I definitely saw potential; hopefully, it’ll be better next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been a loyal patron of Birrieria Gonzalez since it opened, and I refuse to go anywhere else for my birria fix. The flavors here are just unparalleled! The meat is always perfectly cooked, and the consomé is rich and comforting. The only downside? The wait can be a bit excruciating at peak times, but I will gladly wait for authentic birria like this any day. They’ve definitely made a customer for life! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Birrieria Gonzalez is charming, if a bit cramped. I went during lunch hour and had to wait for a seat. Once seated, I had their famous birria tacos with consomé, and it was a delightful experience! The only drawback was the service could have been a tad more attentive. I appreciate the small place vibe but it can get a little chaotic during peak hours. Overall, a great spot for some authentic tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, just wow! The birria tacos at Birrieria Gonzalez are probably the best I’ve ever had! I went there with friends and ordered a bunch of different things to share. The flavor was authentic, and the meat was so tender it practically melted in my mouth. Plus, the staff was friendly and helpful, making the experience even more enjoyable. I will definitely come back and recommend it to everyone I know! " (*Curated Review*)
