Get ready, Tampa Bay — the birria you’ve been craving is finally here. For a limited time, Taco Bus is serving up two mouthwatering birria options that are already turning heads (and emptying plates) across all our Florida locations. Whether you’re a birria veteran or trying it for the first time, this is the LTO you don’t want to sleep on.
What Is Birria, Anyway?
If you’ve scrolled through any food content in the last few years, you’ve probably seen birria everywhere — and for good reason. This traditional Mexican dish features tender, slow-cooked beef (barbacoa) that’s been braised in a rich, flavorful broth loaded with chiles and spices. The result? Meat so tender it practically melts, paired with a savory consomé that’s perfect for dipping.
Originally from the state of Jalisco, birria has become a nationwide obsession thanks to its incredible depth of flavor and that satisfying dip-and-bite experience. And now, you can get it right here at Taco Bus.
Two Ways to Get Your Birria Fix
We’re giving you options because we know our guests — some of you are team taco all the way, and some of you need that cheesy quesadilla experience. Either way, we’ve got you covered.
Both options are just $14.99 and include a side of consomé for dipping plus chips.
The Birria Tacos
Three handcrafted tacos on corn tortillas, loaded with:
- Tender, slow-cooked barbacoa
- Melted cheese
- Fresh cilantro
- Diced onion
- A squeeze of lime
Each taco is built for dipping. Submerge it in the warm consomé, let the flavors mingle, and take a bite. That’s the birria experience right there.
The Birria Quesadilla
One generously stuffed quesadilla on a golden flour tortilla, packed with:
- Savory barbacoa
- Melted cheese throughout
- Served with consomé and chips
Cut into slices and ready for dunking, this quesadilla delivers maximum cheese pull and all the rich birria flavor in every bite.
The Secret Star: Our Consomé
Let’s talk about that consomé for a second, because it’s not just a side — it’s essential. This warm, savory broth is made from the same braising liquid used to cook the barbacoa, which means it carries all that deep, complex flavor. When you dip your taco or quesadilla into the consomé, you’re adding another layer of taste that takes the whole experience to another level.
Pro tip: Don’t let any consomé go to waste. Use those chips to soak up every last drop.
How to Eat Birria Like a Pro
New to the birria game? Here’s your quick guide:
- Start with appreciation. Look at that plate. You earned this.
- Pick up your taco (or slice your quesadilla into dippable pieces).
- Dip into the consomé. Don’t be shy — get it in there.
- Take the bite. Let the flavors hit.
- Repeat until your plate is empty.
- Finish with the chips and remaining consomé.
That’s it. Simple, satisfying, and completely worth it.
Why Birria? Why Now?
Birria has taken over menus across the country because it delivers something special: comfort food with serious flavor. The combination of tender meat, melted cheese, and that rich dipping broth creates a meal that feels indulgent but also deeply satisfying.
At Taco Bus, we wanted to bring you an authentic birria experience at a price point that makes sense. For $14.99, you’re getting a complete meal — protein, carbs, and all the flavor you can handle. Whether you’re grabbing lunch, feeding a late-night craving, or treating yourself after a long week, our birria LTO fits the moment.
