A popular taco spot in Spring Branch is gaining national acclaim for its authentic birria tacos. Tacos Doa Lena was ranked among Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat in the U.S., as well as Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat in Texas for 2021.
"My family came to the United States back in 1992," said owner Angel Cabrera. "Prior to coming over here, they actually sold tacos in Mexico as well. In order for my mom and my dad to provide for me and my siblings, they started selling tacos out of a small apartment here in Spring Branch." "I always told myself that once I grew up, I was going to open a restaurant for her," said Cabrera. "And that came true in April 2020."
"I was extremely nervous and afraid," said Cabrera. "I honestly didn't know what I was doing at the beginning. Managing and waiting tables at a restaurant is completely different than owning a restaurant. I learned as I went. But just like I tell people, when you really want something in life and you want to succeed, especially when you've had a rough childhood, you're going to do the impossible, you're going to do whatever it takes to make it.
