Birria with Cheese
MXN265.00
Shredded birria meat served on a plate, melted cheese stirred in.

Birria Consomé
MXN280.00
Goat or beef broth with tender shreds of meat, onion, lime, and tostadas.

Salón Tenampa
Centro Histórico·$$
MXN95.00
Slow-cooked stew of meat in a rich, spiced tomato and chile reduction.
