    Taco Tuesday Happy Hour All Day
    Liz C.

    Great happy hour all day Tuesday! Good drinks (lime margarita), chips/ salsa, and tacos (carne asada, chicken). First time visit with patio , spacious seating, and indoor seating. Friendly staff and would definitely be back!

    We came back for Taco Tuesday! All day on Tuesdays they offer their Taco Tuesday menu. All tacos, soft and hard shell, are $3.25 each. We tried fish, carnitas, shredded beef, and potato. Really two each is plenty and we had three, food coma! They were all good but we liked the carnitas the best. I ordered a Cantarita, similar to a Margarita but more citrus forward including Grapefriut Juice. It was so good, I ordered a second,.which I never do! My husband ordered the Michelada, again, but this time with Modello Negra. Large and tasty! Service was great. Sofy was our server and she was very friendly and attentive! Definitely looking forward to our next visit! Food is very good, generous portions, and prices are great!

    Wanted some Tex-Mex and tried Taco Shore for the first time. Took the 121 bus from right outside our Condo in DTLB to right outside Taco Shore. No parking/driving necessary! The staff is super friendly! The prices are very reasonable. Just drinks and apps this trip. Cadillac Margarita in a schooner and a Grey Goose martini for drinks. The Guacamole dip was my favorite. The cheese dip with chorizo is good. The ceviche tostada is ok. All the aperitivos are large portions. Next visit will be for Fajitas and Quesadillas. I'm including the menus as of 2026. Give them a try!

    Holy Micheladas!!! Tacos, salad, chips and this beauty! Service was top notch, quick and friendly and great prices. And it's always a great vibe on 2nd street, when the weather is beautiful!! #secondstreetshufflg

    We came here on a Sunday afternoon (before Labor day) and the street was lively. There was already a few people eating before us so that was a good sign. They have a pretty big menu, I got the chille relleno and birria taco. The chile was good, big size, really cheesy. But the birria taco was pretty dry and it didn't come with consome which I thought it did :( there was also no onions or cilantro for it either My friends got a burrito, pozole, tacos, and enchiladas which were pretty standard/good. They do have really good margaritas and drinks! The only thing, was the food took a while and we had to keep asking for things like lime, chips + salsa instead of them checking up on us

    This place is so cute, they have indoor and outdoor seating. They start you off with complimentary chips and salsa, the chips were red and green for the holiday season. The tacos are big and I ended up only eating one and taking the other two home. The workers are nice and provided good service. ig: @cravingswithcat

    Wow, right on Second Ave! We were looking for a new place to eat and came across this place. Let's skip the parking situation for Second Street on a Friday night. It is bad, we all know it. Nothing we can do about it. If it bothers you, done come to this part of town. We came across this place and it had outdoor seating. Thought we would give it a try. We ordered a margarita sampler and some chips/salsa. For a busy Friday, they came out within a reasonable timeframe. The waitress was busy but kept up with e eryone sitting outside. Chips were good but salsa didn't have much flavor. I cannot recommend the margaritas. Any place that makes margaritas south of Fourth Street does something weird with them. Is there some seltzer water or something with carbonation in them? We tried a second sampler with 4 different flavors. I cannot recommend those either. I have to admit that margaritas are more than a sum of their parts. This experience proved it. I ordered the 3 tacos plate with el pastor and chicken. My husband ordered the taco salad. Neither bad quality but it was difficult to say they had flavor. I found myself using a lot of salt to finish my meal. The meal was reasonable (about $40/person with cocktails). I doubt that I would find myself going back. The food and drinks did not impress me as flavorful.

    Great food, amazing service and great place to bring the whole family! They have a lot of TVs playing sports games, great bar area and most importantly clean restrooms.

    Cafe Mexicano is the move!

    Dropped in after walking around 2 street & this cafe hit the spot! It took about 5 mins but it was good!

    We come here all the time. Best service - the staff is so kind, prompt, attentive, and always makes sure our drinks are full and we have everything we need. Food is great and very well portioned (get the spicy salsa), patio is dog friendly, and we always feel like family when we come in. 10/10!

    Carnitas tacos. There so good. Best Carnitas ever.

    Taco Tuesday was fantastic. Family owned. Great service. Friendly staff. My favorite Mexican place. Catering also.

    Chile Verde Burrito
    Michael G.

    I know this place is called Taco Shore but I decided to order a burrito because I'm a contrarian. First the positive. The service provided was exceptional. Our server was a super friendly and attentive server and she had great support from other employees. Great team effort! My burrito was pretty good, it was HUGE! I wasn't going home after, so I forced myself to eat it since I couldn't store it properly. I was full for 24 hours! 18 bucks to not eat for a day is a good deal in my book. I really loved eating outside on their patio, on a nice summer day, it's great for people watching on 2nd. Now the 2 parts I don't like. 1. They serve their salsa in these tiny little dishes that are probably made for soy sauce at a sushi spot. I get not wanting to have too much waste but 4 or 5 chips will empty the salsa dish. 2. I left my favorite sun hat at our table. I called about 30 minutes to an hour after I left to ask if they had found it and they said they didn't. I was devastated because I love that hat. My buddy went back the next day to see if it was found and he saw it displayed on the wall with some sombreros. I'm super glad they still had it but the situation makes me feel a little weird towards the restaurant.

    Overall, it's an OK experience. It's a typical American Mexican restaurant with a bar inside. They have outdoor seating. I ordered three tacos. They were more juicy than I like, but they were not bad either. My favorite thing was the salsa they brought, and chips were very fresh. Service was very good. They are very attentive. Sietting and decoration is kind of old. Prices are OK. Overall again it's an OK experience.

Since we were at the convention center across the street, Kalaveras is really convenient if you're around downtown Long Beach. We were seated immediately and had our orders fairly quickly. We had a long day of walking around, so we cooled off with a Mojito and La Katrina mocktail. I ordered the Kala Burrito while wifey ordered the 1 Enchilada and 1 Chile Relleno combination. Basic chips and salsa were brought out while we waited. Our waitress accidentally forgot my wife's mocktail and brought us two Mojitos. She immediately realized her mistake and gave us the second Mojito for free while she went back for the mocktail. Honestly that stood out as really good service. Naturally a free drink sounds good to most everyone, but the fact that she recognized her mistake and rectified it as soon as it happened speaks volumes of her professionalism. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time for being a pretty busy Friday night. My wife's combination plate was great with the Enchilada de Mole being the standout. My burrito was huge in size and very filling (I could've done without the fries in the burrito but that's just a personal preference and no biggie). Kalaveras can be slightly pricey but it's a good place to get some grub and drinks after a long day on your feet. Catch up with friends, go on date night, or have a family outing - Kalaveras is the spot for any occasion! They're open late, have lunch specials, daily specials, Saturday & Sunday brunch, happy hour, etc. They also offer a complimentary photo card if you want to commemorate your outing!

The guy finally came out, took someone else's order after us and his food came out within a couple of minutes. No joke. Meanwhile, it took our food 12 minutes; which isn't terribly long but we were already turned off at this point... I asked for more water (they have a self serve water jug), the guy didn't fill it. I asked for water again when our food came out (different guy). Then several minutes later the original guy said he filled the water. Ate our food. My bean and cheese burrito was meh. Kind of bland with not much cheese, and the cheese it did have was all clumped in one spot, not spread out evenly. My husband got his usual three tacos. He was very unhappy with them today. He upgraded to the homemade tortillas. They feel apart. He said it reminded him of tamale masa, they just crumbled apart. CONSISTENCY matters. We left unsatisfied and likely will not return. It quickly went from "wow this place is amazing, we found a new awesome taco spot" to "well, that was short lived". I'd also like to mention his 3rd visit with our daughter. They ordered. Waited 25 minutes. Still no food. He asked about it and they never put the ticket in to be made. UGH.

This is one of those places where you know exactly what you're going to get every time--great food and excellent service. The service is consistently excellent. The staff is attentive, friendly, and does a great job of checking on the table without being overbearing. Their salsa is probably some of the freshest and best I've ever had. It has great flavor and is one of the things I look forward to every time I come here. My absolute favorite is their green chile pork, which I get as a chile verde wet burrito. It is outstanding. I honestly haven't tried a huge portion of the menu because when I find something I really like, I tend to stick with it--and their chile verde wet burrito is just too good for me to pass up. That said, I've also had their ceviche, which is very good, along with their hard-shell tacos. Even the basics like the rice and beans are consistently good. I try to make it to Enrique's at least once a month, and after dozens of visits, they continue to deliver. Consistency means a lot to me when it comes to a restaurant, and Enrique's has earned my repeat business. Excellent food, excellent salsa, excellent service, and one of my favorite chile verde burritos anywhere. An easy five stars.

    Enrique's Mexican Restaurant in Long Beach was a great find. There's plenty of parking in the lot,…read moreso parking wasn't an issue, and the service was good. I ordered the pork shank in green sauce. It's not listed on the menu, so be sure to ask about it. The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and absolutely delicious. The portion was very generous--easily enough for two--and it came with rice and beans. They also started the meal with complimentary chips and fresh salsa. Come hungry if you order the pork shank! I would definitely get it again.
