Walked in nice and cold after a hot day at the beach! Greeted by a kind gentleman ready to help assist and pleasantly guide us with our question and food options. Sauce bar was full of all the delicious fixings you would expect at a taqueria. Fresh and high quality ingredients. Place was clean and inviting. Good music playing and once the food came out yummmmm didn't think the experience could elevate much more but everything was fresh and delicious. We usually talk through our meals but we devoured every last bite. Def quality ingredients bc we didn't have that "ugh I ate too much" feeling. Reved us up for the next adventure. Place was great and definitely suggest going here. No regrets and you will be itching to go right back for more! Top notch food and service! Didn't get a picture bc we ate everything. But trust it's the spot. read more

Taco Tuesday deal $1.95 is the way to go All of the staff were all so friendly and kind. I've been here twice and right at 11am when they open there's a line already. Tacos were so big and tasty. All of the regular meat was juicy and cooked with flavor Shrimp and fish were freshly fried and it was crunchy when took a bit Space has limited table seatings so you may need to take the food togo, parking lot has good space read more

This was my second visit here, and I ordered the fried quesadilla again. I called ahead and placed an order to go, and they confirmed it would only take about 15 minutes to prepare. The first time I came here, the place had recently gone viral and was so crowded. I guess the hype has died down because there were only a couple of people dining in when I arrived. I got one chicken and jalapeno and one spinach, tomato, and ricotta. I had the chicken and jalapeno during my first visit and thought it was really good. Today, though, it tasted a bit off, almost like the chicken wasn't seasoned enough. The quesadilla was also really greasy this time. I don't remember it being this greasy during my first visit. The spinach and tomato one was tasty, but I don't think they actually use ricotta. It tasted more like mozzarella to me. Maybe they were just having an off day today. read more

I've tried a few more items since my first visit. The fish taco isn't the best I've had, but it's still good. What throws me off is the fish cutlet--it's a perfectly shaped rectangle with flawless breading, which makes me suspect it was originally a frozen product. That said, the portion of fish compared to the overall size of the taco is generous. I'm not sure if it's a signature dish, but they serve a "deep-fried quesadilla", something I've haven't seen anywhere else. But after consideration, I think it might actually be a large empanada. They offer a choice of three fillings. I can't decide if I liked it for its uniqueness or because it was genuinely good. Either way, it's worth trying at least once. read more

Decent tacos at a decent price. On Taco Tuesday, all tacos are $1.99. I had shrimp and fish tacos and while the tortillas were good, the fried shrimp and fish were dry. The salsa were just okay. read more

Kique’s Taqueria - Shrimp and Fish tacos - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

Saw Kique's absolutely blow up on Tik Tok and Instagram and had ton try it for myself. It was for their Taco Tuesday Deals for $2 tacos. It's an absolute steal in this economy and tasted good for the price. We went earlier before we thought the rush would be but it was still packed and a 25 minute wait in line. The chicken and the fried shrimp was okay, the fried shrimp didn't seem very good quality and tasted chemically or frozen to me. The carne asada one was super good and solid for the price, I would recommend this one. Another cool aspect is they have an unlimited salsa bar where you can fill up your own containers of condiments. Their taco tuesday was really organized and such a fun experience to try but their tacos wouldn't be worth it otherwise on another day in my opinion. I would give Kique's 3 stars if it wasn't for their taco Tuesday! read more

I've seen this pop up on my social media a few times now, saved it then my mom showed me a video a few days ago and reminded me about it. Me and my husband went for Taco Tuesday this week. Every taco is $1.99! All of the workers were very friendly!! They have a self serve salsa bar. The green one was tasty but as far as the food, sadly, we weren't impressed. The tacos and meat were bland to us. We also got 1 crispy quesadilla to share... it's not your normal quesadilla. It is made with masa and deep fried with cheese, jalapeño and chicken inside. It was quite greasy (yes, I know it was deep fried, but it was extra greasy, greasier than other fried foods I've had). The filling tasted decent though. It's a very small place with just a couple of tables. We ended up getting one but it does seem more like a take-out restaurant. read more

Kique’s Taqueria - $1.99 tacos on Taco Tuesday - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

My go to place for taco Tuesday!! My favorite is the carne asada tacos! Street style which is my go too. It comes naked and you can add all the fixings at the salsa bar. Great flavors and tortillas are made fresh there. Service is great , everyone is very nice and helpful. It's a very small location, a few tables inside and a few outside. First come first serve basis. You order and they bring out tacos to your table. They are pretty fast with delivery of your food whether you're dining in or taking out. read more

This Taco Joint went Viral on Social Media! Seen it on Instagram. I had to try it and see it for myself. $1.95 Taco Tuesday! This has got to be fake. Lol Parking was ridiculous since the hype on Social Media came out. Two lines in front of the door. One line to order and one line to get Salsa. Lines were long. My wife and I Doubled team the situation. She stood in line to order and I stood in line for the salsa. My wife ordered some carne asada tacos and a el pastor buritto. After she ordered, she found a table! How lucky she was. We waited about 20 minutes for our food, but it worked out since I was still in line to get some Salsa. After I waited in line to get salsa, our food was delivered! Yay. The Carne Asada tacos were fat for $1.95! The burritos was big! The quality of food in this Taqueria is exceptionally excellent! The food was fresh and tasted delicious. There is no hype! This is the real deal! It was worth the wait for my first visit. I will definitely be back, not for Tacos Tuesday but a regular day. I cant stand the crowd that is taking advantage of this deal! I cant afford to wait in line lol! But a serious note, one of the best tacos I have eaten. I am local, I have to say the best tacos I have eaten in the LBC. My search is over. No need to drive to Downtown LA, its in my backyard now, in the city of Long Beach. Great food and awesome customer service. Workers were very friendly and outgoing. Kudos. My new Favorit Mexican Taqueria spot!! Check it out. You won't be dissapointed. Thanks to the Blogger for noticing good food! read more

We decided to try Kique's on Cinco De Mayo since it was also taco Tuesday and it was busy (as expected). It's a small space with a couple tables inside and a few tables outside. It seems like most people order to go, which is what we did since there weren't tables available. We tried one of each taco except chicken. I would recommend the carne asada taco only. The al pastor, didn't taste like al pastor to me and the fish had a lot of breading. I will say second best was the fried shrimp taco because it had a crunchy texture. Overall, I would say this place is more hype and wasn't worth the long wait. read more

I was in the area and was craving a shrimp burrito and I'm glad I found Kique's Taqueria. There is plenty of parking available and indoor and outdoor seating. The restaurant was clean when we walked in and the lady who took our order was super kind. I ordered the fried shrimp burrito and my fiancé had the fish burrito. They were large portions, very flavorful, and delicious! I really enjoyed the breaded shrimp in the burrito! I will definitely be back whenever I'm in the area! They have Taco Tuesday specials and I'm looking forward to trying their fried quesadilla on my next trip! read more

Great visit to Kique's! Ordered our usual, Asada tacos and quesadillas. Always a hit with the family! I absolutely love their salsa bar. Everything is so fresh and tasty! I found out today that most of their ingredients (Avocados, chilies, onions, fruits, and other veggies) come from their farm in Temecula. This is for bith Enrique's and Kique's. Farm to table! Very impressive especially with their reasonable prices. Huge fan of both restaurants! read more

Kique's is cool. They offer everything you'd like except it's a little different. I ordered 2 fish tacos ($4.25). They're topped with lettuce, pico de gallo + guac. I absolutely loved the flour tortillas, however, the fish not so much. It looked and tasted as if a large panko crusted fillet was repurposed into fish taco sized pieces. The fish tacos also don't come dressed up with any sort of sauce. I did ask for crema and the cilantro crema functioned as a really good binder to an otherwise very healthy fish taco. We also ordered a shrimp burrito ($12.95). They burritos come with refried beans, lettuce, and creamy cilantro. The shrimp burrito, in particular, also gets dressed with pico de gallo + guac. The refried beans were already a little surprising, but the warm lettuce was even more jarring to my tastebuds. It wasn't bad, but not what I was expecting. It's actually my bad for not reading the fine print. I'll be much more informed the next time I stop by for their Taco Tuesday. read more

Went on Taco Tuesday and it was great. We had the fish taco and the birria taco. The fish was frozen fried fish but it was good with the guac and peppers. The birria was absolutely delicious. It was so juicy and tender. We also got a coke and orchata drink and that was enough for us. All that came to only $16! I will definitely be coming back for taco Tuesday. read more

Best taco! I went here almost daily to buy tacos before leaving Ca. The place is clean. Service is great. Can't wait to go back home to get more tacos!!! read more

I feel like it's hard to find a place nowadays with good quality food and good prices, but Kique's is just that! We've been long time Enrique's fans so it makes sense. There are three tables inside and two tables outside, a clean salsa bar with lots of offerings, and friendly staff. We got the three taco special with rice/beans/drink and got asada, al pastor, and birria. All three were great! We also got a fried shrimp taco, and the crunch is exactly what you want in a fried shrimp taco. I could have eaten three or four of those, includes fresh guac on top! And lastly, the chicken, cheese, jalapeño fried masa quesadilla. Pillowy, hot, delicious, and the cheese pull of your dreams. We can't wait to come back!! read more

Wow! Taco Tuesday! The shrimp tacos are by far my favorite. The tacos are on the bigger side which makes this a great deal! They have a salsa bar so you can grab whatever your heart desires. We will be coming back a lot. I'm excited to try the torta next time. I recommend placing a phone order if you are getting it to go. The place is always pretty busy on taco Tuesday. The inside is small and the seating is limited. read more

Oh my! Everything here was wonderful and they have an excellent $2.00 taco tuesday which is well worth going to. These guys are the restaurant owners of Enrique's Mexican Restaurant in Long Beach which is also top notch so i knew going into this the tacos would be just as good as their restaurant which is located next door. I got 3 of each, shrimp, el pastor and asada tacos for under 20 bucks which is a steal. Quality is on point and lots with flavor in every bit. I loved every bit of my meal. A must go if you never tried it. They have a good salsa bar nd they all tasted great. You can feed a good amount of people for a good price. Customer service on another level. Everybody was soo nice and friendly. They have about 4 tables inside and a couple outside. Keep it up kiques! Food rating Shrimp Tacos 9.0\10 Asada Tacos 8.8\10 El Pastor Tacos 8.6\10 read more

Oof these tacos ain't it, girl. Their al pastor don't taste like they were marinated with the right juices and their asada is also lackluster. Not everything that trends online is worth trying. Please just support local street vendors, no te 'spantas. At least, the street vendors make their own agua frescas. read more

Taco Tuesday has never been better. $1.95 for the biggest, most loaded up tacos you can get in Long Beach. I got the al pastor, fried fish, and fried shrimp tacos. I would highly recommend getting the fried tacos they offer because they're the most expensive and still $1.95!  The service is super nice, I heard the cashier chatting with regulars while I was in line. They also have their salsas and pickles available at a self-serve bar. The fried tacos already come topped with lettuce, pico de gallo, and the biggest scoop of guacamole you've ever seen. The meat tacos are best dressed with whatever you like at the bar. My favorite was the pickled onions with habaneros. Definitely come out to support on Tuesday's. It's a great deal, and it's really good! read more

Was craving tacos so decided to try this place. Tacos were delicious. I had the fried fish, al pastor and chicken (all to go). I think my favorite was the fish which was crispy and came with guacamole. Also loved the salsa bar. Best part was I went on Tuesday and all tacos were $2. Awesome deal and I bought extra to share. read more

The tacos are simple, generous, and deeply satisfying. Perfectly seasoned meat tucked into soft corn tortillas, topped with fresh onion and cilantro that actually tastes fresh, not like it's been waiting around. Every bite feels intentional. The quesadilla was a quiet standout. Crispy on the outside, gooey with melted cheese on the inside, folded like it knows it's about to be devoured. Comfort food energy, but done with care. And the huarache, A full-on flavor stack. Crispy base, well-seasoned meat, fresh lettuce, tomato, and a cloud of crumbly cheese that ties everything together without overpowering it. Balanced, hearty, and messy in the best way. Bonus points for the salsa bar. Multiple options, all clearly labeled, from bright and tangy to smoky and spicy. The kind of setup that invites you to experiment and customize without pressure. The space feels clean, casual, and welcoming, the kind of place you want to come back to when you're craving real food that doesn't try too hard. No gimmicks, just solid Mexican food made well. I'll absolutely be back. read more

Fish tacos, shrimp tacos, street tacos, or any of the above in a burrito. That's what happens at Kique's - and more. Kique's is owned by the same people who own Enriques just a few doors away. As a matter of fact, you can order an appetizer (i.e., a shrimp taco) and sit and eat while you're waiting for a table at Enriques! The food is the same excellent quality, but is cooked differently. Here at Kique's, the fish and shrimp are fried. You can get Al Pastor and other kinds of meet in street tacos. It's a "fast food" kind of place, but the food is GREAT. The staff are friendly and professional. I love the shrimp taco It's full of shrimp-no lie. My hubby likes the fish tacos or fish burrito. They also have tables outside if you bring the doggos with you. read more

Such delicious affordable food. Fresh ingredients and friendly service. Love this place.

To start, I came across this place while doomscrolling, and it immediately caught my attention. I grew up eating fried masa quesadillas, so seeing a restaurant nearby that specializes in them was surprising in a good way. I knew I had to try it eventually. As it turned out, the same video popped up on my coworkers' feeds, and we quickly agreed to make it our next lunch spot. When we arrived, there was a bit of confusion. The restaurant is called Kique's Taqueria, but there is also an Enrique's Mexican Restaurant in the same lot. Since "Kique" is a nickname for "Enrique", we almost walked into the wrong place. Once inside the correct restaurant, we were greeted right away by the gentleman at the register, Johnny, I believe, who was friendly and welcoming. I ordered the three-taco lunch special, which comes with beans, rice, and a fountain drink, along with a chicken and jalapeño fried masa quesadilla. For my drink, I chose agua de jamaica. The Food: I asked about their al pastor and was a bit disappointed to learn it is not shaved from a trompo but cooked on a flat top instead. That is not necessarily a bad thing. It just does not match my personal preference. So I went with two carne asada tacos and one pollo asado taco. The tacos are served plain, but there is a salsa bar with plenty of options to dress them up. The carne asada tacos were fine. They were not offensive, but they lacked flavor and could have used a bit more seasoning. The pollo asado, unfortunately, was more disappointing. It was quite pale, dry, and largely flavorless. Given that it was labeled "pollo asado," I expected something with more depth and char. The salsas ended up doing most of the work here. The quesadilla was easily the highlight of the meal. The chicken was well seasoned, the cheese had a great pull, and the outer crust was crispy and flaky. The only downside was the jalapeño, which had little to no heat. I also noticed a few spots where the masa tasted slightly undercooked, though my coworkers did not mention having that issue, so it may not be typical. My agua de jamaica tasted a bit watered down. It was not quite as bold as I prefer. The beans and rice were average. They were perfectly fine, but not particularly memorable. I found myself focusing more on the other items. I did appreciate the salsa selection. They all had good flavor, but none of them brought much heat. On a side note, the restaurant itself was very cold, though it was a hot day outside, so that likely explains it. The Service: The service was excellent. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and that alone earns them a star in this review. Overall: This place ultimately was not for me, but that does not mean others will not enjoy it. Everyone has different tastes, so if you are curious, I would still recommend checking it out and forming your own opinion. read more

Kique’s Taqueria - Al pastor & shrimp tacos - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

There's nothing fancy about this taco joint, except that it's small and the furniture was solid. Taco selection was typical, but lacking the more traditional meats (cabeza, lengua). The fish taco was pretty good, and the al pastor was more than passable. Service was efficient, and I only had to wait a few minutes for my tacos, which was expected because it wasn't busy and they're just making tacos, not searing steak. The Enrique's next door was popping on a Sunday night, but this place had a steady stream of takeout orders. read more

Good tacos. Friendly service &Great taco Tuesday deals but be prepared for the long line

7:40pm on a Tuesday Great customer service as soon as you head to the register. Cons: out of birria, al pastor tacos, shrimp and fish. Only taco options at this point are chicken and asada. Second thing I wish I never saw, they were so busy that you see staff coming in with ingredients needed, and store bought tortillas. It was also an hr wait, but they told us after we ordered. We didn't want to make a fuss so we waited. But this would have been nice to know before hand. I understand they are busy, it's taco Tuesday and IG made this spot popular but c'mon, an hour wait is unacceptable. I truly hope better planning in the future. The food was decent, but not the best we have had. Restaurant: Very small in size. No trash containers around. 3 tables inside and a few outside. Suggestions: During busy hours especially, have some packed condiments ready to grab and go. The condiment counter was busy, messy due to the self serve, and ran out fast. Would I come back? Honestly, no. Just because there are so many good tacos spots, that also have hand made tortillas, and better managed. There is definitely room for improvement. Good luck! read more

Kique's service and food is exceptional. We went on a super busy Tuesday, and the workers were such a joy to be in front of. They clearly care about their customers. The tacos were so good!! And for $1.95 each- including fish and shrimp, you can't beat it. The salsa bar is also exceptional- they have such a tasty variety. The green salsas are our favorite, but if you want super spicy- get the habanero! The place itself is small, and they don't have many seats, so taking the food out is the way to go. Overall a great place! read more
