We asked if they had any plant-based or vegan options. They only sold burgers however the lady that helped us was very sweet, polite, and kind. She told what they had and what we could order inside instead. We walked in and the gentleman named Oscar G. cashed us out. He was also very friendly! Very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and non-dairy items. Provided us with what we needed right away, the container for the salsa and brought out fresh ones for me. Very nice guy. The food came out right away. The portions were big in my opinion. The prices were decent, the portion was great, and best of all the service was good. Their self-serve condiments was a PLUS! I've been to a lot of taco spots and these were by far the freshest and crispiest cucumbers, fresh cold salsa, onions and cilantro was also fresh. The food was good and filled us up. It was simple but fulfilling. Will definitely be back and highly recommend it. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seats as well.

I stopped by Top Shelf Tacos in Carson on Taco Tuesday, where tacos were only $2 each. At that…read moreprice, it was easy to try a little bit of everything. I ordered the asada, carnitas, al pastor, tripas, cabeza, and lengua. The asada was tender with a nice grilled flavor, but my favorites were definitely the tripas and cabeza. Both were a little greasy, but in a good way--they had a lot of flavor and were probably the standouts of the meal for me. One thing I liked was the condiment bar. You can load up your tacos with as much onion and cilantro as you want, plus they have radishes and lime wedges available. They also offer two salsas, a red and a green. Both tasted good and had solid flavor, although I was hoping for a little more heat. Overall, it's a solid taco spot, especially on Taco Tuesday. Good variety of meats, reasonable prices, and plenty of toppings to customize your tacos. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area and craving some tacos.

This review is about Tacos El Goloso, located at 1605 Pacific Coast Hwy, Harbor City, CA…read more My daughter is an EMT. While on duty, she stopped at this location and placed an order. Before her food was ready, she received an emergency call and had to leave immediately. That's the reality of being a first responder--when a call comes in, you leave immediately, no time to wait for your meal. Before leaving, she politely asked the cashier to cancel the order and refund her card. Instead of showing understanding or offering assistance, the cashier was dismissive and unhelpful. After completing the call, my daughter contacted the restaurant, apologized for the inconvenience, and again requested a refund. She was initially told that the receipt had been thrown away. Later, the receipt was apparently found, but she was then informed that if she wanted a refund--or even the food she had paid for--she would have to return to the location in person. The problem is that she lives more than an hour away and was only in the area because she was working. I called the following day in an attempt to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, I was met with the same attitude. The employee refused to provide her name, refused to provide a manager's name, and refused to provide any contact information for someone who could address the complaint. To be clear, this is not about the cost of a meal. Had the employee been courteous, professional, or even remotely helpful, we likely would have let the matter go. Emergencies happen. Schedules change. We understand that. What prompted this review was not the lost food or the refund itself--it was the employee's rude attitude, lack of professionalism, and complete unwillingness to help resolve a simple customer service issue. I will also acknowledge that by the end of my phone call, I became frustrated and was not as polite as I should have been. I regret that. However, that frustration came only after repeated attempts to handle the situation respectfully and being met with rudeness and resistance at every turn. A business can recover from a mistake. What it cannot afford is employees who treat customers with contempt and then refuse to provide any way to contact management when a legitimate concern is raised. Management should be aware that this employee's behavior reflects poorly on the entire business. If this is how customers are treated when they encounter an unexpected emergency, then potential customers deserve to know before choosing to spend their money here.

Five stars. Estilo Tijuana. Some of the best Al pastor you'll find, and the place stays busy, so you never have to worry about the trompo sitting out for too long or re use from a previous day. I guess if I had to suggest one thing for first timers, if you've never had a vampiro, today's the day. Don't ask me about silly things like how the chicken is. It's just pastor or asada over mesquite for me.

It was so much food, I literally had three separate meals out of it. I also got the Al Pastor burrito to try and that was also just stellar. They have multiple locations across the LA/OC area so follow them on Instagram to see if they're outside and if they have any special deals going on for the day!

Their burritos are well made but any type of salsa on it would be too spicy. And I love eating my Mexican food with salsa. It's a small place with seating inside. Honestly if you live in the area and can walk over for some Mexican I would recommend it at least once. I'm giving it three stars because I have been here twice. Each time I have gotten the button and it's been great I just wish the salsa got better to eat with it.

The food is…read moreconsistently delicious at all locations, but some places are inconsistent about whether they are cash only or take card. This location did accept credit card payment. This food truck is on the corner of the street so it's easy to see. Parking is not bad, there's about 15-20 parking spaces in the back corner behind the truck plus street parking around the block. It's usually empty during the day but not sure how busy nighttime could get. If you go in the day they don't always have their condiments and sides laid out and are provided in baggies for easier takeout (they didn't have radishes yet). My go to order is a vampiro and three tacos. The vampiro always takes a while to make, but the cheese is always melted nicely.

They were just awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand award this week for their excellent, affordable food. One thing that I appreciate about their tacos is that their meats have varied textures. The costilla (rib meat) is a crowd pleaser as you get the taste of the grill/charcoal. They have tripe that is crispy with corn nut texture. Cabeza (face meat) has a stewed texture. Unlike most places in LB, there is two hours free parking conveniently located across the street at the Harvey Milk Community Lot. This is easily one of the best options for tacos in Long Beach and, if you haven't had it yet, then you really should! This is the type of place that we need to support!

The tortillas are fresh, the proteins are delicious, and the service is always friendly. We usually take ours to go, with the red sauce on the side IYKYK but there are more than enough seats inside with a light sprinkling of tables out front if you want to dine outside. My personal fave is the chicken quesadilla with my partner loving the asada tacos. When we're feeling crazy we'll get a burrito and a caramelo, but honestly anything is good.
