Birrieria La Cabaña Mexican Restaurant

This place was recommended to me by a work friend and I see why. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Pastor taco dinner and it was delicious. I tried the carnitas as well and it was pretty good. I enjoyed all salsas. Only downside I could think of is that I wished they had complementary chips and salsa.

Best Authentic Birria in Indiana! Selection included beef or goat birria. I had the goat which was fresh, clean tasting, and cooked to perfection. The consume was deep, loaded with toasted spices, and exactly the right level of seasoning. Staff was quick, friendly, and prompt with my order. This restaurant is a corner, non-discript white building with a sign put front. Small parking area on the side, and on the street. Lunch service was filled, so you may want to consider going a bit earlier or later. They also had a birria pizza, with was two giant tortillas, fried to crispy perfection, filled with beef or goat, cilantro and onions and tons of melted cheese. Pizza was sliced and served family style with a big bowl of consume. Homemade dessert included flan and I think some kind of dolce de Leche. Excellent! Will return soon!

Do not sleep on this place. As a Fort Wayne native and lover of little hole in the wall taco places, I have been every where in town. This place is the best. The birria is cooked perfectly. The portion sizes are big and the prices are right. I had the birriaqulies and my husband had the tacos, both were delicious. We will be back!

Order in kinda night. Absolutely fantastic meal. In my opinion I judge Mexican food by the quality of the rice and I must say this establishment is excellent. Yes, it's not as easy as it seems to make rice. The Birria pizza was loaded with a succulent shredded beef and a flavorful sauce, loads of cheese. Definitely a must try and I'd be surprised if you can handle one maybe two slides. Also order the Birria egg roll which is fulling and could be a great substitute for the Birria pizza if you're looking for something a little less filling. Give them a try and see if they meet your expectations.

I came for lunch around 11:30ish. The restaurant gets really busy around noon so expect to wait a lil bit for your food. My first time here was years ago and it was not very impressive. This is the 2nd time and it was amazing. I got my birria tacos with goat meat and it was so juicy. Chips and queso was also very good! Chips were homemaded and queso was perfect. Would definitely comeback to get the birria tacos again!

FINALLY AN AUTHENTIC MEXICAN RESTAURANT!!!! The birria pizza is amazing homemade tortilla chips all the made in house sauces!! Hands down best Mexican food I've ever had....and it's very well priced too!

Visited: May 14, 2025 Stopped by Birrieria La Cabaña and had a good meal. The portions were generous, and everything I tried tasted solid. The staff were friendly, and I had no issues during my visit. There’s nothing that really stood out as exceptional, but also no reason to avoid it. It’s a reliable spot if you're in the area and craving Mexican food. My star ranking system: 1: Bad / Don't go there 2: Could be better 3: Average 4: Above average but not the best 5: A true top notch place

Ordered the quesabirria tacos and they were delicious!!! The consomme and sauces were on point! They offer goat or beef meat. They also have homemade corn tortillas if you like those too. Tried the horchata and it was tasty. Even the bathroom was clean and smelled good. The ladies were nice and quick. It was a Thursday night about 630 and it had some good traffic for pickup and done in. Now we know where to get the good stuff!

We were looking for something new one day for lunch and went a little out of our way after hearing about Birrieria La Cabaña. It did not disappoint! There were so many options and the food was delicious! The service was amazing and quick. We will definitely be going back to try more items from the menu!

There is nothing else around but this. Coming from another state, but this felt like home... following the GPS to a neighborhood where there's not much else and then you turn a corner and there's this restaurant with 17 cars. You know you made the right choice. Takes a while to get service because it's busy but the food was delicious. We chose some new to us offerings with the with rice and black beans. The way they prepared it was good but new to us. But the birria was top notch. Super cinnamon heavy IMHO but it was delicious nonetheless.

Listening to what the customer wants. I ordered 2 tacos only got one asked for lettuce and cheese only they put onions and cilantro, which I'm allergic to, on it! Asked for limes got none!!! Do better people... When you go to call them can't get ahold of them!

No food is worth a forty minute wait when they said that it would be twenty minutes. I live around 10-15 minutes if not more from this place as I was there around the 20 minute mark. So when I got there I thought that my food would be ready right? WRONG. The place was not even that busy as it looked as if the people that were doing either door dash or grub hub were getting preferential treatment. I called in my order at 5:08 and by the time I got it home an hour or so later the taco's were falling apart. My husband was so pissed he threw them all out as the tortillas were soaked and they were inedible. I wasted seventeen dollars on FIVE tacos where there are CLOSER options that serve BETTER food. If you want to go to this place on a Friday or a busy day .. double whatever time they tell you the wait is.. because BELIEVE me NO food is worth a forty minute WAIT.

This place feels homey and has a hole in the wall vibe. There is beautiful artwork you can buy. The goat birria is very authentic and better than what I used to have in California. Beef birria is good too. Consome is bomb! Their homemade salsas are also sooooo bomb. Wash everything down with the Jamaica and you can thank me later. Order a large Jamaica! I'm drooling as I write this. PROS: authentic food and reasonable prices. CONS: parking is a little funky but kinda reminds me of Mexico.

This was our first time here, but will not be our last. Everything we ordered was scrumptious. The portions are generous and service was on point. I would recommend getting a side order of grilled onions and jalapeños to top your tacos- it adds another dimension to the already delicious food.

Spectacular traditional flavors, friendly and prompt service, and a fun and festive vibe. I'm very glad to have stopped here. I can recommend the quesabirria, they were delicious!

Food was good service was good Recommend to others The ambiance was good Wide variety of food

Quick, friendly service, and incredible food. Parking is somewhat confusing, but there is plenty of seating and the food came out quickly. Great for a quick lunch.

Great food, nice atmosphere. It's off the beaten path but worth the effort to find it

Hands down one of the best and cleanest authentic Mexican restaurants. Many friends recommend us this location and we just had to try it. We were greeted by ours server and even though there were several tables and people grabbing takeout orders, our food came out really quick. We got the famous birria tacos, we tried the beef birria with hand made tortillas and they were awesome. Meat was a little dry but you can alleviate it with some stew if you like. If you are the one who likes it wet, get the plate with the birria and stew. I also got a gordita de Chicharrón which also had beans but the maize dough made it so tasty and soft that the combination was just great! Oh boy, we got more to go! The prices are decent. The best part is that it is really clean and well taken care of. Certainly coming back, who says no to a great birria consomé on a Sunday morning ! Enjoy!

My husband and I were passing through Fort Wayne and chose Birrieria La Cabaña based on the star rating and photos of the food. We didn't even realize it was Cinco de Mayo, or we probably wouldn't have chosen Mexican food, but fortunately we arrived on the earlier side. There were just a few people there, and we sat at the back of the restaurant, but by the time we left the place was totally packed. The chips and salsa are not free, but $2.99 isn't an unfair price, and the salsa was fantastic, the chips fresh. It was difficult to choose from the menu because everything looked and smelled fantastic. I was so pleased they had aguas frescas available and ordered a piña. It took a while to get our drinks and then our food, but it was worth the wait! My husband ordered the cabana burrito and inhaled it. I looked over as I was savoring the third bite of my beef (you have a choice of beef or pork) birria burrito, and he was pushing his empty plate to the side. I laughed as he said he couldn't help himself; it was just too good. I took my time savoring every delicious bite. I also had to spend some time picking out what I perceived as way too many onions. A lot of people like a lot of onions, so I think it was probably a reasonable amount for most. I didn't mind picking them out; it does not affect my rating. This place is worth going out of the way for! And next time I'll just ask for onions on the side. The restaurant was clean and pretty typical cantina style decorations. Parking is beside and behind the restaurant, and if walking from the back, one should be cautious on the busted sidewalk, which shifts as you walk on it in some places.

Visited this unpretentious restaurant for the first time. Casual atmosphere very clean and simple. The food the usual popular Mexican fair was just delicious. That is what we are looking for weekday lunch; delicious inexpensive familiar fresh food. This casual clean place really fits the bill.

This place offers truly authentic Mexican food - a must-try! It has become my favorite Mexican restaurant.

Food and service is great. There were six people in our group and everyone got something different. No one was disappointed. We had a great time.

We were visiting the city for the day and decided to try out this place because my husband was craving some birria. We started with the choriqueso, which was delicious. The chips were thicker compared to most restaurants, and I prefer them that way so they don't break as easily while dipping. I got the chicken fajitas and my husband got the Birria Pizza - we both thought they were amazing. The pizza was huge and we both had plenty of leftovers. We also had excellent service while we were there. We both wish we had this restaurant back home!

Great burritos and tacos sauces are awesome. You must give this place a try. Will be on my regular stops when I'm in Fort Wayne.

Perfect Birria tacos. Perfect Quesabirria tacos. Perfect Birria. Whether you like beef or goat Birria, you can't go wrong with this place. We stopped here on our way back to Michigan and now we are plotting our next visit that way just so we can stop here again. We also tried the enchiladas, those were divine as well. All tortillas that we ate were hand made corn/maiz tortillas which made this meal perfection. Everything was tender and delicious. I forgot to take but one picture of two of our tacos because I couldn't wait to dig in. So I am uploading the one that I did take!

Slaps! Get there and eat some tacos. Their crispy tacos with goat meat will blast you into heaven. Small spot, lunch will be busy inside. Food came reasonably quick. Tacos tacos tacos

(No idea why this place isn't on Yelp yet.) Very homey place. Their entire menu is basically birria served in different forms. The quesabirria (in both taco and "pizza" form) in particular is godly: The meat is tender and flavorful and the crispy homemade shells with cheese complement it perfectly. The consomme is a little bit more watery than I'd like it to be, but it is quite bold of flavor as well. Birria is always available as beef or mutton (goat meat). You can also order a mix. They also have decent cheesecakes, surprisingly enough. (Yes. Cheesecakes. Plural. There's a chocolate version if you ask, which is better than the regular cherry one IMO.) There's not much to be said with their non-birria stuff, however. All of it is pretty run-of-the-mill and neither too bad nor tasty. Even the ramen, though a cheap and interesting dish, is rather weak as an offering in comparison due to the small portion and uninteresting noodles. TL;DR Get quesabirria.

The food is amazing, clean place, good service, the consommé is second to none! I had the tacos but will definitely be back for the pizzabirrita and the ramen!

Fast friendly service. I ordered carne de res birria pizza and I could definitely taste a little goat occasionally between bites. The pizza came with 4 tiny portions of salsas limes. I will definitely be asking for extra next time. The consume was good. Hole in the wall restaurant with a cute little homey vibe.

best birria in town. very clean. tortillas made in-house. feels and tastes like it's home cooked. highly recommend

Great food and service in a relaxing setting. My family loves eating there. The birria pizza omg and the birria ramen.

By far the best birrieria in the area. 10/10 would recommend. Good prices. HUGE portions. The only way eat ramen and pizza now.

Came here to Order food. I got a Birrieria Pizza and cheeseburger and I tried the tacos and All of them looked good the had some items that they were selling. They had a Painting that they were selling and it is $25. Great place. (P.S The menu is in Spanish so Google Translate it.) Prices were not bad.

Was nervous going in, but it is bright, clean, and the food was freaking fantastic!!!!

Nothing fancy but decent atmosphere. Nice staff, Good food, and very authentic. I'm personally not a fan of goat because it is very gamey tasting, which is their specialty, but everything else I've had is pretty good. I also wish they served chips and salsa with their meals instead of it costing extra. The notes posted on each table asking customers to tip are a little tacky.

Great food, authentic & delicious. Friendly and fast service. Nice environment, convenient parking.

Theres so much I can say. Everything was delicious tender flavorful. Clean. Service was great. The family are so inviting nice. You have to try it for you're self. The taco birria was excellent. The only thing was I asked for consome "broth" I wished it had some meat in it. I also wish they had guajillo oil for some off us that dosent like it spicy. Great place.

birria tacones were good. It is definitely authentic and would recommend if you are looking for a new place to try. The salsa... perfection! Chips were home made and incredible! Waitress was so nice!

Finally had a chance check this joint out-the food was delicious , my wife and I split the birria en consume carne y caldo-it was amazing , the meat was tender and seasoned to perfection -we also split the pork Chile negro plate which was cooked tender and had a great sauce/ gravy -it had some great heat . The service was attentive and very friendly -the place is very clean with a ton of extra stuff for sale ,such as candy and hats -definitely would recommend this spot!

truly love this place. fast and attentive service, clean, and family owned or not i got that vibe! will be bringing all my friends.

Incredible! The most flavorful Mexican food you could imagine. Real goat birria. Will be back over and over again.

Got the birria pizza 10/10 loved it! I will definitely be returning for more!! Keep up the good work!!

Manager was rude and caused a scene because we said the food wasn't good. we took one bite and didn't eat anything. We still paid but left our uneaten food on the table.

Excellent steak tacos, excellent chips and salsa. I will return with friends. Friendly staff, clean, nice Mexican atmosphere.

One of the most authentic Mexican places I've been to. The Chile Negro is excellent. Will come back anytime we are in the area.

Amazing! Food is well priced and tastes authentic and delicious! You should definitely try this place

Good food and fast service. Not sure of the ambiance since it was a pick up Order. I'd definitely order from them again.

food was good and was ready very fast! service was friendly and thoughtful. ambiance was what you'd expect; vibrant, peaceful, and well lit!
