Food Stands near Long Beach, CA

“I found this new BBQ pop-up in Lakewood at the YMCA and I can’t say enough good things about it. From the kindness of the family that runs it, to the delicious food. Last week I had the 3 meat plate (I chose brisket, pork belly and chicken) which came with 2 sides and it was only $28! The brisket and pork belly were SO tender and juicy and had an amazing flavor! Earlier today I had the one meat plate with chicken, this coleslaw that is probably the best I’ve ever tasted, and their brisket chow mein. So good! Everything is homemade down to the sauces and they have things like burritos and Texas toast brisket grilled cheese. It’s called Axiom Kitchen. Husband, wife and kids and so kind…they made us feel so special. We haven’t had service like that in a long time. I know they are at the Lakewood YMCA on Sundays and I think Fridays and they are at another location on Thursday but I’m not sure where.“

“Did Poke2 and this spot is DEFINITELY NOT AS GOOD AS THE 1 IN DOWNEY! The veggie portions where laughable. Asking 50 cent for extra stuff. When they wanted to give so little. Tuna was good but service was to busy wanting to get back on there phones to make sure we were taken care of. Definitely will try other places but will drive to Downey to get our Poke.“

“First time in southern California ( landed in LAX) was driving down to San Diego for a job and really wanted to try some tacos. And found this golden gem on the way. Nice people, amazing tacos ( that remind you of Mexico) highly recommend to try it!“

“Anything walking distance from my house will get a try out of me. The barbecue here is delicious. Very well seasoned and flavorful. The sides were very good. The agua frescas were so good and refreshing also. The service was great! They gave suggestions and explained the menu amazingly. For the price, everything was worth it. One thing I hate is buying barbecue and being disappointed. Daniel's didn't do that at all.“
