Barbacoa Los 3 Reyes - Review - Alfonso XIII - Mexico City - The Infatuation

"Located in the working-class Alfonso XIII, this modest family-run place with plastic tables and chairs comes alive every weekend and on holidays, transforming into a barbacoa oasis. Their patio has been adapted to fit large groups and the deep pits where the barbacoa is cooked overnight and served straight to your plate with homemade tortillas. You can choose from different parts of the animal (loin and ribs always make a perfect combo) to create tacos and top them with a garden fresh mix of cilantro, onion, and radishes. Add a slice of avocado for creaminess or fresh cheese for a salty kick. As a proven remedy for hangovers, they serve the broth used to make the barbacoa, which you can sip from a coffee cup with a beer if you want to jumpstart the party once again." - Mariana Camacho

The Best Tacos in Mexico City Can Be Found at These 19 Taquerías | Eater

"For lamb barbacoa fresh from the oven, head to Los Tres Reyes in Mixcoac, an institution with over seven decades of experience that opens every Saturday and Sunday. The taquería is almost a religion, offering salvation in the morning to anyone who indulged a bit too much at happy hour the night before, all set to the tune of live Norteño music playing in the background. The barbacoa is sold by the pound as it comes out of brick ovens, and it should be mandatory to pair these tacos with a cup of the shop’s well-seasoned broth, the richest in Mexico City." - Natalia de la Rosa

Delicious barbacoa , expect long queues of more than an hour. Come hungry and please make sure you order the consommé ! The lamb could do with better seasoning. A must if you are into barbacoa

Better to go with a larger group. Need to buy by the pound. Service can be slow, also you need to get in line to buy the meat.

Stopped by here on my last day in CDMX and have to say it was possibly the best mexican food I had. There were many different cuts for the barbacoa, from back to shoulder to ribs to loin and others. My friend and I ordered 500g lamb shoulder and 250 g ribs. The butcher even let us sample the shoulder before trying it to ensure we were ok ordering a big portion before doing so. Excellent service. He even threw in a bit of meat from the knee for us since it was our first time here! The lamb shoulder was incredibly juicy and tender. The meat was marbled and it didn't feel like any piece was just pure fat. Fattier areas melted into each taco I made and just added flavor to every bite. The ribs were fall off the bone and even more marbled than the shoulder. You could chew the meat with just your tongue and palate it was that soft. It comes with blue or regular tortillas (you can request blue), salsas, onion/cilantro, and even drinks! The blue tortillas feel softer to me with more flavor and I requested those. The jamaica was excellent and the waitress was pretty attentive. The inside was loud and festive with the Mirachi band but eveyrone was enjoying themselves. You cannot compare hidalguense to this: I almost feel like Netflix just didn't come here and/or rated based only on how fancy the interior looked. If you are eating barbacoa once in Mexico please trust me: this is the one to hit. It is well worth the extra distance. No meal worms or ant larvae but instead a major focus on excellent tender, juicy barbacoa

Fantastic experience. No English spoken so thankfully set menu for one person on a sign made it easy to order by pointing. The barbacoa pulled straight from pit is fantastic. No connective tissue left, just so moist and flavorful. Consommé also fantastic with onion, potato, and chickpeas. Live music made it festive too.
