Meat!

My brother came to visit this weekend and he was homesick for some mexican food - he is a burrito connoisseur. I myself, am extremely picky when it comes to Mexican food. We had settled on going to either pancho villa or taqueria cancun - both of which are quite tasty and reach my food approval. My brother was scandalized by the idea of buying an 8 dollar burrito and refused to eat at pancho villa. we settled on los coyotes because of the "Birria Todos Los Dias" sign (which is yummy yummy goat meat). First good sign was that the restaurant was clean and spacious with food environment. Cancun is often crowded, and villa feels like you are in a hot-box cattle line. Second good sign was that Ammon was the only white guy there. As my brother put it, the more dirty men (mexicans), the better the place will be. (we are allowed to say things like that when talking about our own...). Third good sign was that only 1/4 of the menu overhead was in english... then the BONUS -- Pozole, and Menudo everyday of the week! That is seriously hardcore. Most places only serve it on weekends. The food definitely lived up to our first impressions. There were THREE style of tortas to choose from. The burritos were so packed tight with goodness that they stood up by themselves. It was well put together and not greasy. ALL the aguas frescas were made fresh. They in fact, had juicy fruit chunks floating around. One sip and I was totally hooked. The tortas were twice the size of cancun's tortas. Anyway, I was very impressed by the food quality. I am dying to go back to try their birria dinner plates - Villa and Cancun don't even compare.

Address: 16th Near Mission (I don't know the exact address). Just look for the goat meat sign.

Update:
Tried the pozole.. was not exactly what I had hoped for. Too many pigs ears, and not enough salt... but I would still recommend the other food... just not the pozole
