I usually come here on a Sundays and it's become one of my go-to spots. The breakfast burrito deal is --great portions, packed with flavor, and always hits. The machaca plates are just as solid, super well-seasoned and cooked right every time. Service is quick and friendly, and the whole place has a laid-back vibe that makes it easy to keep coming back. Definitely a reliable spot if you're craving a legit Mexican breakfast. read more

Called in for order for pick up, quick service. Friendly staff. I finished the food before taking a photo unfortunately. But easy pick me up, just limited hours. read more

This place has been here since forever (that since I started working in DTLB). And over the 15 years that I've been here, I always see the devoted Leo restaurant standing tall with regular customers in and out. Not until recently that I started to come because of my coworkers' recommendation, because they love Leo's taco deals every Tuesday and Friday! I think it's less than $2 per taco those days! The chips are also good and I had a taco salad with chicken another time that was good too! They also have a salsa bar that's always fresh! Service has always been good the few times I've been and the place has always been clean also! Pretty decent taco for downtown! read more

Leo's Mexican Grill - Taco Tuesday - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Went for their $1.75 taco Friday special, I didn't get any pics but next time I'll make sure to do so, they're definitely about to be seeing me every Friday and Tuesday since the special is on both days. They have a variety of tacos to choose from for the special, I got to the Mexican style Carne Asada tacos and a beef crispy taco and that crispy taco is probably one of the best ones I have ever had. That shell is amazing and sooo crunchy!! Marisol (I hope I spelled that right) had such a beautiful smile that lit up the restaurant when she greeted us & took our orders, smiling all the way to the goodbyes. Small little establishment with a great family oriented vibe, I can't wait to come back! Updated a picture since I went back!! I can't wait to go back Friday read more

I heard about Leo's from numerous people and was delighted at the service and food. A great menu and inviting place. Super casual but excellent friendly service. I can see why it's a local favorite. I had the taco salad and my friend ordered a birreria taco, carne asada fries AND a burrito. My salad was great. Fresh fresh fresh! The birreria meat was fantastic. Took a few fries and was delighted! I'll be back! read more

I frequent Leo's and it's absolutely delicious. Can't beat their breakfast burrito deal either! They only take cash and Zelle too.

I love the taco sizes! For the price that they go for, these are amazing!! And of course the taste is so heavenly Recommend the crispy tacos with shredded beef and cheese read more

My coworkers and I come here a lot and love their Tuesday and Friday deals! I stick to soft and crispy style tacos with potato, carnitas, or carne asada -- you can never go wrong! For my fellow picky eaters, some meats do have some other food items mixed in, so you should definitely inquire. They had a decent beer selection too, maybe next time I can grab a photo... Every time I come here, the restaurant is fairly busy, but they move quickly. I typically get my tacos within 10 minutes! Summary: great prices for filling tacos! Great beer prices and quick service! read more

If I'm eating Mexican fare, I want it authentic, not some Americanized chain. So when I saw local workers lining up in Leo's, I knew I had to try it. The restaurant is clean and pleasantly dated, with a heavy wood counter, wood chairs and tables. The service is immediate and friendly. I was craving nachos, so I got an order with Carne asada. I've never had nachos this good. The chips and guacamole are made in house, and they're amazing. My dish had beans, peppers, onion, sour cream and plenty of tender Carne asada. The portion was huge! There is also a nice salsa bar with fresh, house-made salsas, onion, carrot, jalapeño, cilantro and limes. Everything you need to make awesome nachos out of this world! If you want authentic Mexican food, you absolutely must try Leo's! read more

Head to Leo's for the best Taco Tuesday deal in town! This place never disappoints and the service is pretty quick! (considering how busy they get for lunch) You can choose from all the traditional options like chicken, carne asada, al pastor, carnitas for street taco style. Or try the fried potato taco to mix things up. My current favorite is the fish taco, which is served with pico, lettuce and spicy mayo. Regardless of the preference, these tacos are $1.75 on Tuesdays (and Fridays). I also grabbed an order of chips and salsa for $1. They have a fresh salsa bar with all the accoutrements including 4 different salsa varieties, limes, onions, cilantro and marinated veggies. I have also swooped in on non-taco days for breakfast burritos which are also super delicious. I do wish this place had margaritas, but I'm not going to deduct a star for read more

After craving a California burrito for sooo long with no places near me to satisfy this craving, I thought I had luck finding this place! We went to the aquarium and needed to refuel before heading home. The service was great, the girl at the counter was extremely friendly and fun to talk to. The burrito on the other hand just did not hit the way I wanted it to :( it was soooo bland and dry. Even after adding their salsa, lime, and onion it was still so bland ! The salsa didn't have any spice either :/. Also, the burrito was made with guac on one side and sour cream on the other which was interesting cus you just kinda have a single bite with either and then the rest of the burrito has none. read more

Leo's Mexican Grill - California Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Bad energy, descent food. They charge you 50'cents for a refill... who does this? I tipped them $4 to make a point that it isn't about the money, but about the customer experience. The owner didn't seem to care that I expresses my thoughts. Most likely never coming here again. Also just noticed some comments about racism? Hmmm read more

Very good tacos and a decent price during their taco Friday deal, the servers were nice and quick and made sure to tell us what kind of meats they had. They also made sure we got condiments like salsa and lime before we left. Good vibes overall, will be coming coming back whenever we're around downtown Long Beach. read more

Food tastes authentic and home made! I got the enchiladas and was not disappointed. I also had a bit of the carne asada plate, very good as well. read more

Been here a few times buying lunch for a large group. Good food and price, they can usually accommodate a large order on short notice too which is a huge plus. read more

Ok place for lunch or a cheap meal. I usually grab their tacos and breakfast burritos. I like their breakfast burritos the most they load it with a fair amount of meat and other ingredients. Taco are whatever for their special day price they will do but not the most tastiest or meat quality. The workers are friendly and making ordering a breeze. read more

Quick and friendly service even during Taco Tuesday lunch crush. Quality and quantity were good for the daily special.

Great place for quick easy eats at an affordable price. Staff is very friendly as well. read more

Pretty average food here. I came here on the recommendation of a neighbor who said they have the best crisp tacos. They do not have the best crisp tacos ): The quesadilla was good, but that's a hard item to get wrong. The tacos were good, but not anything special. The salsa was good. Seems like a place more for bar vibes, but there are definitely better Mexican restaurants nearby. For a better crispy taco (not nearby) I would recommend Pancho's on Anaheim. read more

Had the California burrito from Leo's. It's your average burrito wrapped with a nice serving of fries. Can't argue California love for fries. This was actually my first time having a California burrito although I've seen it plenty of times on menus of other Mexican food establishments. Their asada is done right! Nice juicy flavor with a hint of char. Their beans are good, too. Flavorful and not too salty. read more

they only except cash and zelle it was a hassle to even purchase food. food is okay . parking is hard to find.

Felt very unwelcome as a black customer. Hispanic customer comes in 15 mins after me and got his food the same time as me even though he ordered 2 burritos to my one.. smh This is becoming too typical of long beach restaurants of this nature besides the big chain stores like El Torrito.. I know when I'm not wanted, and I will never go back!! read more

Honestly the picture doesn't do it justice. This burrito is the perfect size for a quick bite before or during work. It isn't a MASSIVE burrito but it definitely does the job and the eggs, bacon, and potatoes were cooked to perfection. They have a couple good choices for salsa as well! read more

Leo's Mexican Grill - Bacon Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Great local Mexican restaurant! Fast service and the food is good. I mostly come for their 5.50 breakfast burritos before 10 am. They're a great size, very filling, taste great, and hot. They have soft, slightly mashed potatoes, chopped up bacon and an egg option that I like. Best affordable breakfast burrito I've had in this area. read more

Leo's Mexican Grill - menus on the wall - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

This is a pretty limited review because I only had their chorizo and egg breakfast burrito. I'm not sure if the special is new, but you can get any breakfast burrito for $6.50 before 10am, which is $2.45 off the menu price. The burrito was okay, especially for the price. My only complaints are that there were tons of huge chunks of potato and the chorizo grease leaked everywhere, making it a pretty messy affair. The salsa bar is amazing though and the only reason this is 4 stars vs 3. The spicy red salsa is insanely delicious. I will come back just for the salsa :) read more

First time there ordered breakfast burrito for $7 and some change. Didn't expect much for the price w/shredded beef & it was awsome and the salsa was good not watery. Very friendly service.Hot & put together the right way! I'll definitely be back to try something else read more

Service - on point Food - even better I had one crispy chicken taco combo, my husband had 2 chicken soft tacos and a side of fries. All delish......! I spilled beans on my shirt and the waitress handed me a wet clean towel. We sat outside in the sun and this place gave off good vibes. We will definitely be back next Long Beach Grand Prix and again after that! read more

The fish tacos were yummy! So was the Jamaica juice. Parking sucks but this is a cute location to grab a quick bite to eat or hang out with some friends or coworkers! I gotta come back and try more food and then write more later! To be continued... lol! read more

A hidden gem! They prepare their homemade chips fresh every day! The salsa bar provides garden-fresh varieties. You can sense the love coming out of their kitchen and all throughout their staff. Their chill atmosphere makes it inviting to all. They have delicious daily specials that keep me coming back for more! read more

The place is good. I was driving around looking for some good steak nachos and wanted to try this place. I remember coming here a couple of years ago and the carne asada plate was very good! Good enough to keep me coming back every weekend. I know now there is no outside seating or anything due to this covid. Pictures were from a month ago. Anyways the nachos were just ok. I can't really find a good place that has good steak nachos around long beach sadly. They have pretty good salsas and a pretty big variety of beers. Cool little place! read more

Shrimp burrito. Salsas. Fire.....................delicious really enjoyed. Will return

Terrible experience, i walked a total of 1 hour to get a burrito just to get there and their machine not to work, the lady didn't even try to help usually restaurants have Zelle. As if it wasn't terrible enough there's yt ppl outside chain smoking cigarettes read more

Hey, taco Tuesdays & Friday's, all day long! They cost $1.50 each, either soft or hard shell. I ordered 2 soft tacos, and a basket of tortilla chips that cost $1.00. The flour tortilla shells are nice and thin. They taste better than the tacos down the street. My only complaint was that my order got lost in the shuffle, so I had to go and ask them what happened to my order in the back. This is definitely a casual atmosphere. Be prepared for a line nearly out the door. They have a salsa bar with the smallest condiment containers. They really need to get some larger containers because there is "traffic" at the condiment station. Only two people can get their condiments at a time, which include 3 different types of salsa, cilantro, and onions. read more

Let's be real, this place doesn't taste authentic at all and you could clearly tell by the certain items on their menu. With the location, I could tell their trying to cater to the majority of the crowd that's around the area. The food was alright, wasn't terrible but not worth going back. Their food was very bland, nothing savory, and their tacos we're dry with no salsa. The carne asada fries tasted like something you could get a Denny's lol but their burritos were packing so I guess that was okay All in all, it wasn't great. Funky stomach after eating here too. There's so much more wonderful places to visit and eat in Long Beach. read more

I've been here before, maybe a year and a half or two years ago .. somewhere in there, had beer and tacos and it was awesome! Felt like tacos today and remembered this spot so we walked over there. It's a super cute place, very clean, super friendly staff. I decided on chicken nachos instead and my boyfriend got a ground beef burrito. Cost was awesome, only like $20 for both. Food came out fast, within 5 minutes. Probably too fast actually .. My boyfriend didn't love the burrito. Said it was very dry. Nachos are probably my favorite food - I'm sad to say this but they were terrible soggy right off the bat like they'd been made 30 minutes ago. The chicken was hard and old and had so much of that bone/cartilage stuff in it that I just avoided the chicken at all costs. The beans on the nachos were good, but there was WAY too many of them. Probably what made the nachos soggy. Hardly any cheese, and that's the best part. The salsa bar did have some of the best salsa of my life though so that's a plus. 3 stars because I remember those tacos being incredible. Maybe just the nachos are bad .. I don't know. I'll go back again, give it another try because of my prior experience. But not for nachos! read more

Breakfast Burritos are on point, no better deal in town for the price especially if you go between 8am and 10am. Great vibe and the staff is friendly and fast, they're always very kind to me and my pup when we stop by. My favorite is the chorizo breakfast burrito. read more
