Y’all! Authentic Mexican Food Gem in West Texas – A Must-Visit!
We had the pleasure of trying La Birria, the red food truck tucked behind Sul Ross University Stadium—and wow, it did not disappoint! Every item on the menu was full of flavor and heart. From the first bite to the last, the birria was especially outstanding—rich, savory, and absolutely delicious.
We sampled everything on the menu and were blown away by the generous portions and bold, tasty bites. Honestly, the photos don’t do it justice—you’ve got to experience it in person and eat your heart out.
Whether you’re just passing through or looking for a laid-back dinner spot after a day of hiking or exploring the beauty of West Texas, this is a perfect place to unwind with friends and family. The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and full of local charm.
Here's how to make the most of your visit:
Big Red Barn – Drive through to grab your favorite beverages (they’ve got plenty to choose from). La Birria Food Truck – Opens at 5pm on Fridays and weekends. Check ahead, as hours may vary. Grab a table – Relax, enjoy your meal, and take in the good company. It’s also fun to learn some local facts about Sul Ross University while you’re there. Explore the area – Highly recommend visiting the Museum of the Big Bend and the beautiful university campus. La Birria is more than just a food stop—it’s a true local experience. Don’t miss it!

Edit: it CANNOT be understated how good this food is. And consistently. I lived in Austin for many years. Moved here from Houston. This place outshines anything I've had in years. Quality. Care. In a world full of mediocrity, this place is an absolute gem.
Edit 2: Still the best food in town, bar none, but the service is in need of work. Several times now they have posted the day before that they will be open at 11am, only for me to show up at 1130 and they are still closed. Today they even said open at 11 and posted a video of tacos being served. I thought that meant they were surely there serving. Nope. Still closed at 1145. Get your professionalism up to the quality of your food and you'll really have something. Vlaie the time of your customers.
Edit 3: My one compliant was promptly addressed and food still best in the region. Somebody...
Read moreThe best birria I've ever had. I live in San Antonio, and we always have to stop and get Birria for us and take some to San Antonio to my kids.
This last time I stopped, I got the Chilaquiles with Birria without eggs and a freshly squeezed lemonade, and they didn't disappoint.
My kids wanted the Quesitacos, so I placed 2 orders to go to San Antonio. Let me tell you, my kids warmed their tacos in the airfryer, and they tasted like they were just made. The consommé was also super good.
