Con Sabor a México

Abby iMakeyousmile★☆☆☆☆

I placed an order today through DoorDash and I am extremely disappointed with my experience. I ordered food from this restaurant hoping to enjoy a good meal at home, but the food arrived burnt. The quesadillas were overcooked and not edible. I also tried calling the restaurant to address the issue, but no one answered the phone. This is not the first time I’ve had problems with my orders from here, as I’ve previously received incomplete items or mistakes. However, today’s order was especially frustrating and unacceptable. I was really hungry and looking forward to my meal, but instead I ended up very disappointed. I truly hope the restaurant takes customer service and food quality more seriously moving forward.

A friend introduced me to this spot for their birria tacos, and he was absolutely right. We came late at night just before closing. It was windy and cold, but honestly the perfect weather for hot, crispy birria tacos and a warm cup of consommé. Everything is outdoors, but there was a large white tent that we were able to sit under, which helped. There was only one person working, and he was clearly hustling and doing his best, so it took a bit for him to get to us. Once our order was placed, the food came out in about 10 minutes. The tacos were delicious. The consommé was rich and flavorful, and the hot sauce that comes with it was excellent. Exactly what you want on a cold night. Just a heads-up: it’s dark at night with minimal lighting. Parking is nearby, it’s very casual, and it’s set up like a food-truck area with a few other Mexican vendors around. I would definitely go back. They have a gigantic taco I want to try next time. I’ve read mixed reviews about the ramen, so I’m on the fence about that, but I’d try it with more people. Overall, simple, fast, and very satisfying.

Con Sabor a Mexico definitely brought the heat. I’m continuing my review streak with this local spot because they are doing some things very, very well. The Main Attraction: I went straight for the Quesabirria Tacos. These were excellent—perfectly grilled with that signature crisp on the tortilla. • The Consomé: This is where many places miss, but here it was rich and savory, making for the perfect dip. • The Salsa: The provided salsa had just the right amount of kick to balance the richness of the beef. Combining the consomé and salsa for dipping was a total game-changer. The Experience: The presentation was clean (check out my photos of that golden-brown taco shell!), and the service was efficient. It’s the kind of place where you can tell the kitchen cares about traditional Mexican flavors. The Verdict: If you are in San Jose and craving authentic Quesabirria, this is a solid 4-star destination. It’s flavorful, reliable, and absolutely satisfying. I’m looking forward to seeing what else their menu has to offer on my next visit!
