The Best Restaurants in Seattle's University District

"This Tijuana-style birria de res specialist doesn’t play around when it comes to birria. It serves birria and quesabirria tacos, birria tortas, birria mulitas, birria ramen, etc. (Birria ramen?!?) However you order it, the beef is cooked with expert patience, slowly enough to render every last bit of its fat, but not so long that it dries out. The meat’s flavor is deep and complex with adobo notes, not muted and pot-roasty. Beyond the star ingredient, there’s a fantastic attention to detail here: The tacos are brushed with chile-infused oil before they hit the flattop, and the corn served with the ramen is sweet and crisp." - Mark DeJoy, Eater Staff
