QuesaBirria Jalisco Tacos

"The feeling of an excellent quesabirria taco is unmatched; Tijuana classics filled with tender beef, and fresh corn tortillas melted with stretchy, salty cheese, all dipped into a spiced and flavorful meat consomme. And in Chicago, those who keep halal can enjoy them at this Pilsen gem, where all of their meat is certified halal, and you can get halal chicken quesabirria too." - Nylah Iqbal Muhammad

"Things we love that are orange? Tang, the Reddit logo, and the tacos at Quesabirria Jalisco. They’re doused in chili-laden consomé and absolutely packed with juicy beef birria (or chicken or shrimp). Like its menu, the counter-service space is small—there are only four tables, so unless you get lucky, plan on placing your order to go. While you wait, you can admire the chaotically charming decor, complete with Star Wars memorabilia and inspirational wooden signs that you’ve probably seen in an aisle at HomeGoods." - veda kilaru

"Things we love that are orange? Tang, the Reddit logo (no, it’s not red—look again), and the tacos at Quesabirria Jalisco in Pilsen. They’re orange by virtue of being doused in chili-laden consomé, layered with cheese, packed with juicy beef birria (or chicken, or shrimp), and perfectly crisped up on the grill. The tacos come with salsas, including a creamy and spicy “bussin sauce” that also happens to be orange. But our allegiance is to the combination of birria topped with the wonderfully spicy salsa verde that cuts through the richness.

They’re doused in chili-laden consommé, layered with cheese, packed with juicy beef birria, and crisped up on a grill. The tacos can also be stuffed with chicken or shrimp, and you can mix and match in packs of three to 12. They come with sides of salsas, including a creamy and spicy “bussin sauce” that also happens to be orange. But our allegiance is to the combination of tender birria, dunked into the side of broth, and topped with wonderfully spicy salsa verde that cuts through the richness, resulting in a perfect bite.
