01/24/25There are many street food vendors popping up in Long Beach and I've tried a few. But this one here.... it's a yes for me all day! We ordered 2 carne asada burritos. They were very generous on the meat! Flavorful and assembled to perfection by friendly cooks! All the fixings were available on the side: radish, cucumbers, lime, onions, cilantro. At $12 per burrito (poster sign says $10 so I'm assuming $2 extra for asada. No, I didn't ask. I was hungry), reasonable price and well worth it! The burritos were huge! They post their location, date and time on their Instagram. Not sure how else they take payments but we used Zelle. Well lit canopies and their set-up was along a street that has a little bit of traffic flow but not like a main street. 10/10 - I'm definitely coming back!

Saw the truck on the side of the road so I pulled over to try it of course. WORTH IT. Just got a humble 2 tacos for $5! Al pastor -GREAT and comes with lots of meat, avocado sauce, red sauce cilantro onion and home made tortilla!Just a truck, but had small table space for probably 5-10 people.Service seemed fast for me, but I only ordered 2 tacos.This place is good eats! Go go go!

Tacos El Chico is a taco truck that's open late at night. They advertise through their Instagram what city and times they're open which is helpful. They have a Placentia location that's open past 2 am. Tacos were reasonably priced. They're known for their al pastor tacos and they definitely didn't disappoint. You can sit on tables that they provide in front of their food truck. I also got a hot dog that was priced pretty high at $8.00. The hot dog just had a bunch of bell peppers and tasted not that great. I was hoping for a bacon wrapped dirty dog so this $8.00 hot dog was extremely disappointing for the price . Come for the tacos!

A game-changer for late-night taco cravings! This is my second time having Tacos El Chivo (had at two different locations.) What sets them apart from other taco stands is their al pastor from a vertical rotisserie with pineapple and handmade tortillas! No need to drive out to LA anymore since it's conveniently located just down the street. All their sauces are all really good and adds the perfect kick to each bite. They post their location pop-ups on Instagram, usually with 2-3 spots in North OC. Highly recommend for a quick and satisfying taco fix!The service is quick even if the line gets long, and they make sure you have all the toppings and sauces you need. They also take zelle, so don't worry about bringing cash!

Tacos Pastor very tasty and delicious. Crapping them out the next day was the worst part. I don't think their meat or sauce was fresh lol.

It use to be a great stand to get tacos, sadly not anymore, last time the meat was really dry, like it's been reheated many times.

Tacos are great. Vampiro is amazing. Both Carne asada and al pastor are good. My friends liked the cabeza too. Sauces are amazing. Corn tortilla is pressed right in front of youI guess they move around / have multiple locations. I had them on east Riverdale Ave and n Lakeview Ave in anaheim. Corner of the parking lot of 411 N Lakeview Ave, Anaheim, CA 92807. You can check out their insta stories to see where they will be that dayStreet vendor so no seating. Payment in cash, venmo, and zelle.

This place realllllllllly rocks my socks. I know it's a curbside vendor but don't let the pop up vibe make you skip it. Pull over and check out what Tacos El Chico is all about. Their ingredients are fresh and tasty. They also hand make their tortillas right in front of you while you wait. My go to is the Al pastor with the pineapple. Make sure to follow their instagram to locate where their pop ups are for the day. Instagram : @tacos.elchivo. Their fast and friendly service is sooooo good. One thing be aware of their portions. They're big and never leave you hungry. I gave 4/5 stars cause the last two times I went they were out of chicken and didn't put slices of pineapple on the Al pastor.
