    Vampiro tacos (carne asada, chorizo and al pastor). Dinner 2/16/2018
    Rayshawn W.

    Stopped by Tacos El Culichi's truck to try their vampiro tacos after a friend swore they were the best. After trying them, I can't say they're the best vampiro tacos I've tasted but can say they come close. The tacos are hard shelled open faced with melted cheese then topped with your choice of meat, onions and cilantro. Very similar to mini tostadas. Each meat chosen (asada, al pastor and chorizo) was flavorful with the al pastor being the best. The al pastor was both crispy and juicy. Like all other vampiro tacos out there, there's lots of cheese so cheese fans rejoice. Unless someone has tipped you prior on which truck to grab tacos from on Atlantic blvd between Alondra and Compton blvd, It'll be pretty hard making a decision on which to grab tacos from since there's taco trucks lined up one after the other parked side by side. Talk about keeping your competition close! Can't speak for the others (not yet at least) but if you're looking for good vampiro tacos then make Tacos El Culichi your pick. Flavorful, reasonable and quick in preparation. Dinner 2/16/2018

    Came here with friends and family. I had the "Vampiros" tacos which is basically a hard shell tortilla with your choice of meat, mixed in with cheese, cilantro, and onion. Also had the "cabeza" (head) tacos and "al pastor" tacos. Over all the taste was delicious. Salsa choices are , red, green, and other combinations. Not a super great location if you want comfort , as it's a taco truck with a few tables in the street. How ever, if you are in the mood for some great tasting tacos and don't mind a little wind in you face, come here.

    I've been a major fan of this taco spot since they first came to Long Beach. Decided to stop in and…read moretry this location before heading to work. My order is always the canajillo shrimp taco and zanadeado fish taco, no tortillas. Just a cheese crust style. Just as I thought, they nailed it! The tacos were awesome. The consistency with all 3 locations I have been to has been on point. The flavor hasn't changed. Usually that's hard with a non-menu item. If you have never had these tacos, I highly recommend them. The shrimp is stewed and the fish is grilled not fried, just how I like it. Shout out to the manager who was accommodating to my needs. His service to make it happen was on point. The cooks need a shout out too! You all are awesome! The restaurant was very clean and well kept. I definitely will be coming back to this location when I'm over this way. Thank you again for accommodating my dietary needs. You rock!

I remember I had the birria sandwich. I decided to try them again. Came to this location, and I get the economy is in a pickle. But, the prices we paid, and the taste of the dishes we paid for just wasn't making sense to me. With that money, I could have gone to the taquero de la esquina y estuviera más barato y tendría mejor sabor. I got birria tacos. The consomé was salty and bitter. The meat was flavorless y the tacos seemed to be burnt. For the bill to be over $60, like I'd expect more. Where is the line that restaurants draw in terms of what they are willing to serve ? We got a quesadilla and burrito. Well, it wasn't very impressive. It just affirms that I probably wouldn't come back.
