Mexican Birria

Birria-Landia

Jackson Heights, Queens, NY 📍 Maps

Birria-Landia started in 2019 when brothers José and Jesús Moreno, after years in Manhattan's fine dining scene, decided to bring the Tijuana-style birria de res José fell in love with in LA to New York. They didn't just open a taco truck; they ignited a city-wide birria craze, redefining what authentic Mexican street food could be. The ritual here is simple: join the line, grab your order, and find a spot to lean and dip, embracing the delicious mess.

★ The Legend
Birria Tacos
These are the tacos that put Birria-Landia on the map, featuring tender beef birria de res slow-cooked for five hours in a rich adobo, made from a tantalizing combination of brisket, shank, and top round. The corn tortillas are dipped in the flavorful birria fat before hitting the griddle, giving them their signature orange hue and extra depth, then filled with the juicy meat, onion, and cilantro.
◆ Fan Favorite
Consomé
The rich birria broth, infused with succulent chopped birria, fresh onion, and cilantro, is essential for dipping the tacos and is consistently praised by reviewers and customers.
◇ Hidden Gem
Tostadas
Often overshadowed by the more famous tacos and mulitas, the tostadas offer a different textural experience that true fans appreciate. They feature the same flavorful birria, onion, cilantro, and sauce, but served on a crispy, slow-toasted corn tortilla, providing a satisfying crunch with every bite that first-timers might miss.
Insider Tip

First-timers often just grab a couple of tacos and go, but you're missing out on the full experience. Instead, order at least one of each: a Birria Taco, a Mulita, and a Tostada, and absolutely get a large Consomé. This way, you get to appreciate the different textures and preparations of their incredible birria, and the consomé is essential for dipping and sipping, tying the whole meal together perfectly.
