Birrieria y Taqueria Cortez on East Rosedale is a South Fort Worth destination for bold, authentic Mexican street food, with Michelin Guide recognition to back it up. The kitchen specializes in savory birria and street-style tacos made fresh from traditional recipes, while the original Cortez Express food truck operates as a drive-through nearby for faster service. Across Rosedale, the same family runs sister restaurant Mariscos Cortez, a coastal Mexican seafood concept serving dishes such as ceviche, aguachiles, and Jalisco-style shrimp boils. The main restaurant delivers the full birria experience, with food that draws regulars from across the city. If you have not made it to South Fort Worth for birria yet, this is a compelling reason to go.
