Tacos Doña Lena is a technicolor fantasy world you must be a part of. The birria-focused, electric-orange restaurant—filled with papel picado banners and family photos framed in flowers—in Lazybrook is even better than the Spring Branch original, thanks to their margaritas with a perfect tequila, lime, and sugar ratio. The menu has every known birria concoction, from consomme-drenched tacos, crispy machetes, and gorditas stuffed with refried beans to beefy bowls of ramen topped with a fried egg. Split the hulking combination plate with a special someone (and by someone, we mean yourself), load up on quesabirrias, and don’t be ashamed to drink the consomme straight from the bowl.
