“best keto tacos in the county.... excellent service and great atmosphere.“

“Hidden semi hole in the wall taco spot. Located in a large plaza with plenty of free self parking. The restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly. You can see them preparing all the ingredients as well as tacos cuesadillas, and burritos. There are a few indoor tables and seating. There's also a small salsa bar.
The menu is limited and straight forward. Basically choose the type of meat you prefer.
This is not fast food. It takes time to prepare fresh food made to order.
Tried the shrimp vampiros. It's kind of like a tostada so best to eat that first since the shell will fall apart if you eat your tacos or burritos first. It's very yummy!
Also tried the chicken taco. It was ok...nothing special about it.

Definitely get the free onion and jalapeno.

The salsa bar has your
typical tomatoes, onions, limes, etc. but it would've been nice if they had cilantro
There's also two containers with free beans so make sure to grab some.

Prices are a bit high for the tacos at $3.25. The vampiro is priced right at $4.15
Portions are a bit small but they make up for it with the free beans and salsa bar.

If you're in the area, it's worth a try. There are better Taco spots elsewhere, imo.“

“Nice lil “ma & pa “ place to eat.“

“Consistently delicious. Best fish tacos ever, crispy but soft inside, and so well served! I can eat the fish tacos all day, but if you ever crave something else- the tacos dorados are also delicious- beans, requeson or potato- all so good! The ceviche has also become a go-to part of my order. Lastly, the service is always top tier- everyone is so nice and incredibly helpful!“

“1. I really like the tacos at this spot, and I love the toppings that I can add to my tacos
2. The spot has fun casual vibes with high ceilings!
3. The staff was friendly and made the ordering process easy!
Note: There is restroom available for customers!

“Variety wise Guisados has the most unique flavor profiles for tacos I have come by in long beach. The sampler is a great way to get your whistle wet and see which is your favorite. The tamales will give any abuela a run for her money. The customer service is great and you can taste the love and tradition of put into each bite ❤️“

“So I live in Compton, only a few blocks from the birra spot. I'll be honest, I did not like birria de chivo but I came here for Father's Day because my dad who lives in L.A. wanted to try it. Long story short I had no clue what to order. Gentleman at the window was soo helpful and patient in helping me, the señoras are cooking in the truck so we knew it was going to be good. Anyway my dad loved it, and I tried it and I really enjoyed it. Just be careful with parking the lot they are by was full and and I parked on a side street and I totally missed the sign and got a big fat ticket. ??“

“Even if not stopping on the way home, the charcoal aroma makes their asada of the best fills the street almost everyday providing comfort for us in the neighborhood. As many reviews mention the pastor, it is worth its weight in gold. I bounce back and forth getting each.

My only wish, alongside one review, is that they were on the spicier side... Definitely doesnt diminish the pure excellence of this place though and they're of the best. I'll be back soon and thank you for being in the neighborhood.“

“Buena comida, lugar agradable y familiar se lo recomiendo al 💯 %“

“Great handmade tortillas! And the salsa is the best! Try the prime rib tacos, oh my goodness, and the quesadilla are ridiculous and so good! You gotta try this place!“

“This place is far beyond average. The chicken burrito was amazing. Lots of flavor and still can remember it. The place inside is sooo cool. The Fernando Valenzuela Bobble Head is great to see. We will be back. That chicken is legit !!!!

Parking: Actually a lot of spots.“

“My family is from Tijuana and I frequent often. This is as authentic as it gets. Best corn tortillas around by far. Best carne asada around. I would put this up there with some of the best tacos in LA. It holds its own. Make sure you get a carne asada queso taco with everything when you’re here.“

“Best Mexican food in Long Beach. by far. this place is amazing 👏🏿“

“I visit Long Beach California every summer and was recommended this location by a local.

Their 10 dollar family meal is amazing value. It comes with 3 tacos, beans, and rice. I got the al pastor as it was on the wheel. They were amazing! Slightly charred, seasoned perfectly, and a good portion. You make your order, they give you your food, and you garnish with whatever you like.

Obviously, it's 5 stars in my book.

Stop by, grab a bite to eat, and talk to some nice people.

Give it a try!“

“Food was good, definitely going back.“

“Well the food is okay. It’s a 8/10 the service is great 10/10. Well during the day if it’s hot then you better take home a eat or in your car. There no where to set. But your car. It really depends on you. The food is 8/10. So if your near the area. Give it a“

“buena comida y muy amiable la persona que nos atendio“

“Super recommended, better than the tacos bravos, the tripe is well browned with the whole pieces (not ground), the chorizo ​​is very delicious and the mulitas are not to mention well browned and not at all greasy when biting like in other places, 10 out of 10 ??“

“To top it off homemade corn tortillas, chorizo,Asada ,and Al Pastor, seasoned well good flavor all around no fat. Fire !🔥“

“Unos tacos deliciosos y el que atiende muy buen servicio“

“Al Pastor and Carnitas Tacos were on point! Carne Asada could have had some more char on it, but the flavor was there. Hand made tortillas and salsas are great! No Templeton sighting on this trip. 🐙“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“highly recommend went to the one in Venice Beach. sooooooo good!!!“

“I love Oscars, quality food and ingredients. Oscar is always super friendly and I love seeing his family hanging out. He’s there from early morning until late night and greets everyone with a smile and welcoming attitude. I am from San Diego and this restaurant reminds me of a lot of the Mexican restaurants down south. The food is very authentic and I love their salsa bar! The Cali burrito is delicious. Their breakfast burritos are delicious and affordable.“

“I just have to say this. EVERY time I eat at Casa Jiménez Huntington Beach it ALWAYS seems like the best meal (of any kind) I have EVER tasted! Last night was no exception. YUM. And congratulations on the remodel with a fancy new bar! You guys ROCK.“

“So so delicious 😋 I highly recommend this place“

“Delicioso, es como estar en Sinaloa“

“Lucky to arrive and no crowd. Seated right away and waitress provide drinks. Had many recommendations of plates to try. Went with the three ceviches … delicious. We order the aguachiles and molcajete as well. Need to go try, won’t be disappointed.Service is excellent, variety of Mexican food and seafood.“

“never had the tacos ... but the menudo is fire.... here.“

“Hard shell tacos and fresh Jamaica drink!“

“Only stand I go to, best pastor tacos, can’t be beat“

“Muy buena birria de chivo con su rico consomé y sus deliciosas tortillas recién hechas a mano misma calidad donde quiera que vallas ya sea en la lonchera o en cualquiera de sus instalaciones es el mismo sabor calidad y servicio“

“I have visited this place for the last 20 yers and I have tried their pozole, tacos, menudo, juices, etc. The quality and taste of the food has always been top notch.
Also, the place is well kept & organized. The employees have worked there for a long time and they always serve you in a efficient, attentive, and efficient manner.
Another thing I like is that rain or shine they open their doors every day 6 in the morning.“

“The best meat anywhere! Can’t wait to see them open in Downey!!!“

“Los uchepos😋 El servicio excelente“

“The tacos were ginormous and basically meat explosions. The burrito, while scrumptious, was a tad meat-stingy. This place has tables and seating coming out of its ears for dine-in enthusiasts. And don't even get me started on the parking – it's like they're begging you to bring your entire crew. The price? Totally reasonable, not a single complaint. I'd swing by again in a heartbeat to try more menu goodies.“

“Great service, the food was delicious and we continue to come back for more.“

“BEST TACOS IN GARDEN GROVE!!!!

This place is an absolute must! Everything from the meats, to the tortillas, to the sauces, even the customer service, EVERYTHING was spectacular!!! This is was my first time here and it was everything i ever wanted from a taco place. I highly recommend going here, if you’re passing by or a local, it’s a perfect place for some delicious tacos!!“

“Great food! Friendly service!“

“Excelente Servicio al Cliente y Deliciosa comida todo muy rico Se los recomiendo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best tacos in Southern California! if you visit Long Beach you have to stop by here. Forget about the street tacos it's dangerous you don't know what you're eating in the street, this is an establishment that's been here for many years clean and checked by the health department.“

“The meat has some of the better flavor ive seen in a long time. Tried the tacos and tortas and they were good. The torta seems a bit off. I feel like they are using the wrong ingredients or the incorrect order because the lettuce was soggy and drove down the taste. By no means is this bad food. I think it just needs some rethinking. Dont change the meat. Do avocado instead of guac on the torta. Find a way to keep the lettuce crispy. And i think the cilantro may not belong in the torta. But other than that this is a good restaurant. I think with some small tweaks, it deserves a 5 star.“

“Went today with high hopes .. the French toast was super soggy.
Matcha 10/10
Steak 10/10
I wished the menu mentions that the house potatoes aren’t just potatoes .. it’s a mixture of jalapeños and potatoes which I can’t eat since it upsets my stomach.
Overall a 3/5 … paid 90$ for 2“

“I have tried many taco places in Anaheim and this one is by far one of the best! The al pastor and carne asada tacos were both perfectly seasoned and tender. The place has many seats available. It is super clean and the service is absolutely amazing. They also had their own side bar for the toppings and sauces which was a plus. Highly recommend!“

“?? MÉXICO (via Eat the World Los Angeles) - No matter which of the two orders (bistec/cecina) you choose, your tacos look very simple when they are handed to you, a tortilla with one thin cut of meat on it. It is up to you to dress it up as desired, and they have all the options you could ever want. What seems like a simple operation starts to get much more complex the more you look as three or four homemade salsas are around, a pot of black beans is available for customers as well as some grilled onions in addition to the diced cebolla y cilantro.“
