Finally tried this place out! We had the papas asada and it was great! It wasn't dry. Lots of meat and right amount of cheese. Downside is just parking around the neighborhoods then you have to walk over. But hey I think it's worth the small walk and think of it as exercise before you dig into your awesome meal. read more

So, I turned to TikTok, the treasure trove of foodie recommendations, hoping to discover something special. That's when I found this gem! I realized that this pop-up was actually just a street away from where I live, which made the decision even easier. Upon arriving, I encountered a bit of a wait--there were at least 15 folks ahead of me in line, eagerly anticipating their delicious orders. After standing in line for about 10 minutes, I could sense excitement building in the air as the line inched forward. As I observed the scene, I couldn't help but feel the buzz of anticipation surrounding me.. The flavors of sweet marinated pork and fresh pineapple have a way of dancing on your palate. I plan to capture a few photos to share once I'm a little closer to the front of the line. Got a taco dinner $10 rice,beans and 3 tacos and Agua fresca horchata So here's the review I got three tacos Al pastor 2/5 no flavor .. it was missing more citrus and seasoning,even the piña bites where bland Carne Asada 2/5 it taste like reheated leftovers in which he poured all the meat on the plancha Pollo 4/5 had seasoning Rice 4/5 flavorful Beans 2/5 no flavor ,pinto beans Horchata 3/5 overly sweet Overall they hype is not what you think. Tacos are affordable,Agua frescas $5 Will I be back probably not. read more

Easy to spot with the red tent and was on a busy corner across from a Habit with plenty of parking. No tables to eat at so you have to either eat in your car or take it home. The line was long but moved quickly and efficiently. They stuffed the tacos and had plenty of toppings like cilantro, onions, lime, and a variety of salsas. Only complaint was that the meat (I got chicken) was too salty for me. The salsas helped counter it a bit but still too salty. read more

Oh wow! Some of the best street tacos I've ever had! The Al Pastor Tacos were amazing. That pineapple hit so good! My son loved the Papas Asada, which is carne asada on topped of a baked potato, which was cooked perfectly! We also enjoyed the Dinner Plate which has rice & beans. The beans were super delicious and you can tell they are homemade. FYI, this is an outdoor food tent with no seating, and no restrooms. Great service too! If you want authentic Street Tacos, this spot is legit. read more

LOVE this place! I like the buche, Al pastor, tripa, and cabeza. The al pastor is probably my fav(nice and LAYERED pieces of Al pastor‍) with a nice crunch but a clear sweetness and flavor. The tripa is S Tier in my head too(really crunchy) and the cabeza was solid but not outstanding along with the buche(good texture but lacked in flavor). Salsas are decent as well but al pastor is definitely a no brained if you're coming here. Parking usually in the lot (not sure if it's the same since it changed last time) but still not bad and worth it for sure. Service is no frills and expect a line. read more

From what I understand, this stand is a long time stalwart of the Long Beach taco community. I was in the area or at least passing through and I really wanted to try their al pastor tacos. I also like this place because it has a DIY toppings and salsa bar with fresh produce. I thought that al pastor tacos here were very tasty. When you get the tacos before putting on all the toppings, you can see all the seasoned ridges and layers when they slice the meat really thin. I also got a strawberry horchata or aqua fresca to wash everything down. They give you a really large cup and I couldn't finish everything but I thought that too was tasty. The service here is quick and friendly. I can see why people like coming here. The five years pretty lively because there seems to be always a line depending on what time of day or night you are here. read more

I loved coming here during my time in LB, and I HAD to stop by again being in the area last night. They operate late at night for those that have the late night munchies. They are a street vendor but this is basically where they are always set up, no physical store. Their food is soo good for their price too, $10 for a burrito that's bigger and more filled than a burrito from a Mexican franchise. I got an Al Pastor Burrito everything on it with no frijole, be careful tho because the sauce and grease will seep through the aluminum foil they wrap it in. The service is pretty good too, they take your order right then and there and start making it. Payment is either Cash or Zelle and that'll be at the end before you recieve your order. They also have a toppings/sauce table where you can get as much as you want, it's just the traditional toppings like cilantro, onion, lime, green/red sauce etc. read more

Amazing late night meal after a show. Great food, great hang. We'll be back, no doubt.

So happy they moved from Clark Ave For now enjoying parking spaces they have where they are at. Got papas con carne and very good. The al pastor tacos with pineapple so good! Tried taco with lengua and was good too. A lot of freebies like grilled onions, jalapeños, and all other goodies that come with tacos. read more

The tacos were OK. A bit salty, and I had to cover that up with their red salsa and it tasted a lot better after that. The portion was pretty generous. However, what I didn't like is they just threw my change in the tip jar. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that somehow they thought that I told them to keep the change. And I probably I would have, but I don't like anyone assuming, especially in this economy. I won't go back for this reason. read more

If I lived closer to here I'd come here damn near every weekend. The flavor is there! Decent prices with $2.50 a taco. Taco Dinner came with 3 tacos, rice and beans. The asada was amazing. Such good flavor and tender meat -- one of my favorites I've had in LBC. Out of the pastor and asada, I'd only get asada next time. Salsas: can't go wrong with any. The red one was super spicy tho! Parking -- easy to find in the lot behind them. In a popular strip mall off of PCH. Service -- fast, nice and have everything you need for a good taco stand including aguas frescas. Can pay via Zelle. read more

They have a sign $1.50 tacos on Tuesday, turns out it's only for the pork, it's mainly pineapple slices and doesn't taste like pastor, just pork, was 0/5 The tortillas are very thick and not palatable and dry, with street tacos you want them a little oily from the meat. Their plates are like flimsy writing paper, utensils to serve were thrown into the sides like pico de gallo and onion, pretty gross. They charge extra dollars for any little thing like a restaurant. They're literally on the side of the dusty road. I prefer the street tacos by 2nd st across Whole Foods, they're nicer and taste better. Especially their pastor. I was left with a sour taste from this food, the meat wasn't seasoned like last time, hit or miss. read more

Insane quality of food. For $10, i got 3 tacos with rice and beans. Wished i took a pic but the food was foo bomb to stop. They iced all their salsa, onions, etc and the spot looks very clean and professional. I hope they get more hype, their pastor seems like a signature thing, they gave a small grilled pineapple piece when u order pastor as the meat, it's cute. Their branding is a yellow truck with neon sign on top. Saw them at front of Richard's read more

Fire spot. The Pastor is a must. I always get lengua and carnitas too which are awesome. Great service. Fast, clean great spot!!

Solid 4 star. Had the Al pastor tacos and the carne and cheese thing (forgot the name). Was good although Al pastor could have been marinaded a bit better. Also, wife and I had a bit of the it's the next day, if you follow. People were / service was nice enough and it's a taco truck so not much ambiance to speak of. read more

The best tacos in the town, no question about this. I play in a basketball league in Seal Beach and my friend asked for tacos in the town. This place appeared and it was the best decision. Now, it's a new tradition for me to go to this place after the league game. The people are warm and easy to order from. It got that tacos atmosphere that you're looking for. Nothing beat this. read more

We were in the mood for tacos and there was so many options but I am glad we decided to give this place a try. The service couldn't have been any better especially for how busy they were while we were there. We ordered tacos de carne asada and al pastor and they were so delicious! We also ordered a carne asada quesadilla. The food was definitely delicious, some of the best tacos I've had. I also liked how they had the toppings/salsa set up so we can get as much as we'd like. If I'm in the area, I will definitely be back! Thank you again! read more

Best corner taco spot. read more

The best tacos in the traffic circle area! Even when they have a line around the corner, it's still quick and efficient service! The prices are well worth it also... it's common to see tacos for 5-7 dollars around this area, but I can get 4 Al pastor tacos and a Fresca for 20 bucks at this place! Sadly, the neighboring car shop and the plaza next to the pop up have restricted parking and will tow if you park there but please don't let that deter you from eating at this lovely spot. There is parking on the street available (see photo). Please be respectful if parking in the neighborhood adjacent from the corner, a lot of residents rely if street parking! :) Please give this place a try and you won't regret it! Salsa is bomb also!!! read more

Best taco stand in Long Beach, hands down especially tacos de pastor! Line can get long but they're fast

This is our favorite street taco spot! We have tried tacos, burritos, plates and their stuffed potato and all tasted great. The crew is very hard working and nice so make sure to leave them a nice tip . There's no places to sit but some people eat at their cars or bring some chairs to seat around the parking lot there. I highly recommend this location if you ever have a craving for some yummy Mexican food. read more

Love the pastor cooked over an open flame but please don't sleep on the asada here. My go to dishes: pastor burrito con todo, papas con pastor and asada quesadilla. All for $10-$12 bucks. Side of salsa verde-chefs kiss. Best Mexican food in the 90815 area code and it's not even close. read more

Good tacos, open late but call to get the address as it's on in a different spot. The asada and al pastor are bomb!

Came over on taco Tuesday (they do not have a deal). I was debating if I should get a mulita, but I should stick with taco Tuesday's tradition. Price was reasonable for tacos ($2.5 each). We got 3 el pastor tacos, 2 cabaza tacos, and pina juice. Meat was tender, juice, fresh, and hot. Pina was refreshing, and not as sweet. Staff were friendly, and services were prompt. The guy who prep my el pastor tacos has good skills as you can see from my video. I enjoyed watching him prepping my food. They are located in a corner of 2 busy streets. There was a line when I got there at around 7pm, but the line moved pretty quickly. I will come back again and try their mulitas. There is a small parking next to the taco stand that is belong to an auto body shop that customers can park. read more

This taco stand truly lives up to the hype. We arrived around 6:30 PM and there was a line of about ten people, but it moved incredibly fast, so don't let a queue deter you. The Al Pastor is without a doubt the star of the show here. Cooked on a traditional trompo and kissed by the flame, it has an unparalleled flavor with perfect charring. It's easily the best Al Pastor in the city and an absolute must-try. The Asada was also delicious. It features a great marinade and delivers that wonderful smokiness you expect from the grill. I opted for the taco plate, which came with rice and beans. Honestly, these seemingly simple sides were a pleasant surprise and really rounded out the meal. If you're in Long Beach and craving some outstanding tacos, particularly the Al Pastor, this place should be at the top of your list. read more

Hands down best in Long Beach. Juan and his team doesn't disappoint. We used to go out to dinner at restaurants we skip that now and just come here. Times are tough foods expensive. Here quality and quantity are the best. I suggest el hombre it's $14 and equivalent to about 10 tacos or any quesadillas if your looking for healthy option chicken is excellent. We also Hired them for my daughter's wedding reception. We got rave reviews all around. My husband's family is old school Mexican they all loved them. Don't go anywhere else open 6pm daily to I think midnight read more

Excellent food!!! The Al pastor tacos amazing!!! I couldn't choose the top second lengua, buche, cabeza, etc. They are very generous with their portions! Will return! read more

Some of the best street tacos you'll ever have, we're lucky enough to live near by so we're constant here for a late night dinner. They have an impressive selection of meats too. Highly recommended read more

This place always has a line and for good reason. Taco Tuesday's are the best because everything is discounted, not just tacos. But you gotta get the Al Pastor tacos. They have about 3 different salsas to choose from, a bunch of sides like sliced cucumbers, sliced radishes, roasted jalepenos, onions and cactus, onions and cilantro and more, all for free! They also have tasty beverages to choose from. I generally like to leave a tip to show my appreciation for their great price, great quality and abundance of accoutrements. Give them a try you won't regret it. At the moment the only accept cash, Zelle and I think PayPal. I always pay with cash. read more

Food: 4/5 Had the following tacos: asada, lengua, buche which were all tasty. Always recommended to eat there to avoid the taco shells from going stale. Plenty of condiments and drinks available for purchase. Service: 4/5 Staff was quick and nice. Everyone is putting in that hard work! Ambiance: 3/5 Lack of seating or tables. But that's part of the style of these pop up taco shots, really can't blame them. Reminder to dress warm is your going in the late evening because it does it chilly. read more

I see why the long lines. The al pastor is delish. Had in a taco, burrito and quesadilla. They move the line and the food is served hot, need to wait to eat. read more

This might be my favorite taco spot in town.. definitely in my top 5 in SoCal! Tried the al pastor and the asada tacos. Wow. Just wow. These are the definition of "simple is best". Juicy, packed with flavor, and they don't skimp out on the meat portions. Self-serve toppings and salsa, drinks, agua fresca. Just everything you need. Needless to say, I'll be coming back for more. They take Cash, Venmo, or Zelle. read more
