Birrieria Las 9 Esquinas, Traditional Mexican restaurant in Centro Historico, Guadalajara, Mexico.
Birrieria Las 9 Esquinas sits at a corner where nine streets meet and serves traditional birria stew made with goat or lamb in a rich broth. The meat is slow-cooked in clay pots and comes with handmade tortillas to dip or wrap.
The restaurant started in the early 1900s and helped set standards for how birria is made in Guadalajara. Its impact shaped this regional dish for generations to follow.
The kitchen maintains traditional cooking methods for birria using handmade tortillas and a variety of Mexican salsas at different heat levels. Recipes passed down through the family shape how this stew is prepared and served today.
The restaurant is in Zona Centro and takes both cash and card payments at moderate prices. It gets busier during standard meal times, so going between meals offers a quieter experience.
Each serving of birria features a mix of meat cuts that are slow-cooked in clay pots following family recipes passed down over time. The specific combination of pieces varies depending on what is available each day.
