Real Reviews. Real People.
"Not even being dramatic when I say this was the BEST birria I've found since moving to Australia. The duo working this stand at the Rocks Market are so incredibly sweet. It was so delicious I don't think I came up for air once while eating this. If you are at the Rocks Market you MUST eat here!!!"
"A great taste experience. They were packed full of meat and flavour. Great value. The portions are a decent size and the dipping soup was great too. The only problem is that I don't live closer so I can get them more often."
"The best spot of tacos you can find in Sydney — they taste like the tacos I had from Jalisco, Mexico, place of birth of birria tacos. 👌"
"These tacos were delicious and ready within 10 mins!!! Must get when at the Rocks Markets. Located towards the end on the left near the bridge. Make sure to get a few napkins!"
"The only Mexican food I've tried in Sydney that actually tastes authentic — and I've tried a lot of places. Delicious nachos and birria with SO MUCH guac. Would go back if I weren't leaving Sydney!"
"The meat is cooked to perfection. Nachos are on point. Look out for this franchise Sydney — definitely a trip to Mexico right here. Credit where credit is due. Well done. 🙏"
"I would do unspeakable things for more of the birria beef tacos."
"Beef tacos were delicious and reasonably priced."
Four Steps to Perfect Birria
Simple process. Extraordinary result. The kit does the heavy lifting.
Onion & Garlic
Add the whole dried chiles from your kit into a pot with onion and garlic. Cover with water and simmer on medium heat for 30-40 minutes until fully softened. The kitchen will smell incredible.
Meat Hard
High heat. Heavy pot. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper, then sear in batches until you get a deep golden crust on all sides. This crust is the backbone of your entire consomme.
& Combine
Blend the chiles with vinegar until completely smooth — strain into the pot. Then blend the garlic, onion and the Pepas spice sachet together, strain that in too. Add water to cover. Give it a good stir.
& Slow
Bring to a boil, then drop to the lowest heat. Cover and cook for a minimum 4 hours — 6 is better. Shred the meat, skim the red oil off the consomme, fry your tortillas in it. Done.
Colombian Heart.
Mexican Soul.
Pepas Taqueria started with one mission: make the most honest birria in Sydney. Not a fusion. Not a shortcut. The real thing — slow-braised beef, hand-blended chiles, that deep consomme you want to drink straight from the bowl.
Yes, we are Colombian but we lived and discovered the flavours of Mexico. And yes, Mexican locals tell us it tastes just like home. That is not an accident — it is 8 hours of low-and-slow cooking, three separate chile blends, and a genuine obsession with getting it right.
Every weekend you will find us at The Rocks Markets, near the bridge end, dishing up birria tacos and consomme to people who keep coming back.
