Birria House - Tacos y Mas

"Even if you live across town, Birria Taco in Kensal Rise is worth making the effort for. Birria tacos, birria-loaded fries, and birria ramen—everything at this bright, laid-back Mexican spot revolves around the adobo-marinated meat stew. There’s the option of lamb or beef, both of which are excellent, so the only thing to figure out is how much you’re going to order." - rianne shlebak

"This lively, walk-in-only Mexican spot in Kensal Rise is so into birria that they refer to themselves as a ‘birreria’. And honestly, we’re into it. On the menu, you’ll find birria-loaded fries, birria ramens, and three types of birria tacos. We’re going to stop saying birria now and simply declare the beef version of the tacos to be the ones you need to try. The corn tortillas, which are crisped on the grill, are a shade we’re calling ‘smile-fest orange’ and soak up the adobo chilli flavours of the meaty consommé. You also want the tangy, sweet chicken al pastor tacos on your table. " - jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley

"There are only a handful of London restaurants that serve birria, but Birria Taco in Kensal Rise is serving some of the best in the city. Birria tacos, birria-loaded fries, and birria ramen—everything at this bright, laid-back Mexican spot revolves around the adobo-marinated meat stew. There’s the option of lamb or beef, both of which are excellent. When ordering tacos, we always end up in the upper range of 'a lot' to 'probably too much'." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
