If you don't already know about the little So Cal empire of taco stands that is Angel's, then I'm guessing you just got here, maybe you're from our if town... or maybe you just found the internet. Five stars. Estilo Tijuana. Some of the best Al pastor you'll find, and the place stays busy, so you never have to worry about the trompo sitting out for too long or re use from a previous day. I guess if I had to suggest one thing for first timers, if you've never had a vampiro, today's the day. Don't ask me about silly things like how the chicken is. It's just pastor or asada over mesquite for me. read more

I am so glad to live in Southern California where there are one million good options for affordable, filling, and quality Mexican food.  I got the Loaded Baked Potato, which came with approximately 2lbs of freshly sliced al pastor, loads of fresh salsa, cheese, onions, cilantro, and tortillas. It was so much food, I literally had three separate meals out of it. I also got the Al Pastor burrito to try and that was also just stellar. They have multiple locations across the LA/OC area so follow them on Instagram to see if they're outside and if they have any special deals going on for the day! read more

Angel’s Tijuana Tacos - Asada queso tacos - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

If you haven't been to Angels Tacos in Long Beach yet, you're seriously missing out. Their al pastor tacos are next level, super moist, packed with flavor, and the little slice of pineapple on top adds the perfect touch of sweetness that just takes it over the top. What really makes them stand out though? The handmade tortillas. You can taste the difference, soft, fresh, and they hold everything together perfectly. I will say, the guacamole wasn't my favorite. It's a little different here compared to other Angels Tacos locations for some reason, just didn't hit the same. But honestly, everything else more than made up for it. Highly recommend trying the corn quesadilla, the loaded baked potato (easily enough for 2-3 people), and the vampiro. This place is a must. read more

so delicious! I would definitely go back to angel's tacos again I will say, it is a bit on the pricier side as the loaded papa was $16, however, it was HUGE. I think I made around 6-8 tacos with it plus a bunch papa & meat left over as well. Tacos are $3.25 each too but they really pack on the meat so I feel it's worth it every once in a while. There can be a bit of a wait, so just be prepared for that. They also only take cash and I think zelle. read more

Angel’s Tijuana Tacos - loaded carne asada papa - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

Came on a Friday evening around 730pm, parked in the supermarket next to it and walked over. Carne asada taco- 4/5 super tender carne asada, really good, fresh handmade tortillas but i felt the sauce was too much, tortillas gets a little soggy and breaks apart, but still good Nacho with half al pastor and half carne asada - 5/5 HUGE!!!! Omg the amount of guacamole, lots of delicious meats, I love how theres both shredded and nacho cheese. The nacho was a lot for 2 people. I would come back for the nacho, must order for nacho lovers. read more

I've been to this taco stand a few times now, and after finally trying every type of meat they offer, I can confidently say I love them all. The seasoning is consistently on point, and it's always satisfying to watch the tortillas being pressed and cooked fresh to order right in front of you. At $3.25 a taco, they might seem pricey for street tacos, but the portion sizes make it completely worth it. Each taco is so loaded with meat that it could easily fill 2-3 regular tortillas. My girlfriend and I usually split 5 or 6 tacos between us, and for around $16 we both leave super full and happy. As for the meats: * The carne asada is a classic and delicious. * The chicken honestly surprised me -- I usually skip chicken when it comes to Mexican food because it can be bland, but theirs is flavorful and has become one of my go-to picks. * The chorizo has a nice kick to it and is probably the messiest option, but it's worth every bite. * The al pastor is my girlfriend's favorite -- perfectly cooked, thinly sliced straight from the roasting spit, and paired with roasted pineapple. * The cabeza is tender, juicy, and easily the richest of all the options. The atmosphere definitely leans toward the classic street taco vibe. The stand is right next to a big Savers parking lot, and a lot of people end up eating against the stone wall nearby. It's pretty dark since you're just on the street with street parking only (unless you grab a spot in the Savers lot), but that adds to the casual, local charm. This stand hasn't let me down once, and as a bonus, there's sometimes a churro stand set up right next to it. Six churros for $5 is the perfect dessert after dinner, and they're fantastic when fresh. One thing to note: the taco stand is cash only, but they also accept Venmo or Zelle, which is a lifesaver for people like me who rarely carry cash. Overall, this spot is a gem -- great flavors, great portions, and always satisfying. read more

4/5 only because of the tortilla! I know they'd have to prepare these beforehand.. and it felt like that. Other than that, the meat was great! Great texture and nicely seasoned. Will try their other spots (the ones that aren't a truck) read more

Found out about angels through a friend. The pictures looked amazing and loved that they add guacamole to all of their tacos. Friendly service and very quick. Loved all the variety of sauces and sides. We loved everything we got, but the meats were just a little too salty. Other than that they pack it with meat and it's a decent value. read more

Cash or Zelle only!!! This place is amazing! Their tacos are normally $2.75 but they tend to have deals where it will be $2 per tacos. You can follow their instagram for updates on prices, locations, and hours. For this location, the hours are 4pm - midnight but you may need to give them extra time to set up and prep, so I would suggest being there at 430pm but even then, lines are beginning to form already. Topping are placed on top of the food you oder by the cook but you can also ask for it on the side and they will also prep it for you. I def enjoy this bc it is more efficient and cleaner than everyone hovering around the toppings and doing it themselves. The tortillas are made fresh and the portion sizes are huge! I get their asada and pastor and they really pack on the meats. The quesoburrito ($12.50) is my favorite and I will def go back for it again! read more

Wow! I love when they make fresh tortillas in front of you well you order! We got the pollo and pastor tacos. Easy to line up to give them your order. They're quick and they don't skimp on the meat. Will come back! read more

Angel’s Tijuana Tacos - Pollo and pastor tacos - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

Came here on a late Saturday night and surprisingly it wasn't too crowded. Long Beach has had a major influx of TJ style taco stands, and from what I've heard Angel's is a pretty legit chain of taco setups throughout the LA county area. They have a convenient location as it's right in front of a huge plaza where most of the stuff is closed by night time, so you should have no problem finding parking. The staff were super nice and friendly. Prices are pretty good considering how much meat you get on the tacos--they don't skimp out! One of the things that makes this place stand out is they have fresh Al Pastor tacos (complete with the pineapple!) and they load it up with salsas and sauces ala TJ style tacos. I also had one of their keto tacos which was super yummy and cheesy, just keep in mind you'll need a lot of napkins! They have a wide variety of meats and they were all delicious so you can't really go wrong. My only caveat is just to make sure you're comfortable being on the Westside of Long Beach (although, it's not that deep in!). Definitely will have to come back here for tacos on another late night. read more

Angel’s Tijuana Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

Swung by a friend's place and happened to cruise past this unassuming little taco stand--just a humble setup, but the grill was roaring like it had something to prove. The scent alone could've sparked a hunger strike. I couldn't show up empty-handed (I was raised better than that), so I grabbed a few tacos that turned out to be nothing short of heroic. I went with the al pastor and beef--each tucked into a fresh warm corn tortilla and flanked by all the proper sidekicks: lemon wedges, crisp radishes, pickled onions. The kind of delicious that makes you wonder why you ever bothered cooking at home. Everyone was so nice too. Would eat here again! read more

Los Angeles and street tacos are synonymous. Angel's TJ Tacos is probably the best and most famous taco street vendors. We are lucky to have an extension of Angel's in front of this grocery store in Long Beach. Their asada is good as you get a nice charcoal flavor, but it's their al pastor that is really nice as it's cut directly off the spit. I like to splurge by spending an extra $1 per taco for a quesotaco with the cheese fried into the tortilla. If you're really hungry, you should get a papa loca (translation: crazy potato), which is crazy because of how much they stuff into it. With the amount of meat and fixings they stuff into the potato my wife and I were able to get a few meals out of this by eating it in some tortillas. If you are reading this review and you don't live near in LB, follow their IG @angelstijuanatacos to find which of their 15 locations that you live closest to in LA, OC, or the IE. read more

I have been waiting to try Angels Tijuana Tacos, first visit was five stars al pastor tacos from the spit were very good nice flavor and perfectly charred. Also tried asada, chorizo, and cabeza. Asada was a bit salty the others were good. This review is for the follow up since the location is convenient near the 710 freeway decided to get some tacos and picked up some al pastor unfortunately these were inedible due to the saltiness, quite disappointed since the first time this flavor was a hit with my son and I. At first bite tasted the saltiness, short moment later my son hands me back the plate and mentions the saltiness, being frequent taco stand patrons he knows his "red meat tacos". Friendly staff and efficient service. I don't know if I'll be back but hopefully this was a one off with the seasoning. Consistency is key in my opinion and this missed that mark. read more

Ordered tacos, asada, pastor and chicken $3.25 ea and asada burrito $13 And chia lemonade $6.50. Tried all tacos without salsa first asada soft tender and tasty. Chicken was juicy and the pastor was nicely marinated. With salsa on them a new level excellent. Definitely, will hit this spot more often. Red onions are a bonus. The burrito with grilled cheese spot on. read more

Tried to charge me 20$ for 6 tacos!! You are on the street not a restaurant! No beans rice ... Trippin!

This is one f my favorite taco stands in all of Long Beach. The staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is excellent. The food is full of flavor and super large portions. The carne asada has that really nice smoky grilled flavor that just adds an additional level of flavor. read more

Angel’s Tijuana Tacos - Half of my half burrito - Tacos Near Me - Long Beach, California

Angel's is the go to taco stand, and I've been blessed to live by one for the past 3 years from the Eagle Rock location to Long Beach. I love trying new places, and I've tried all the nearby taco stands. No one else comes close! Everything is made fresh and by hand. The salsas, guac, pickled onions and grilled onions are always super flavorful and packs a punch. My wife and I usually go with the Al pastor potatoes and they are hefty! It always takes us two sittings to finish them. Go with what you like and try the potato if you haven't! It's a game changer. read more

Just alright - nothing blew me away and the service was not great. The pastor, along with all of the other meats, did not look the most fresh but I will give them the benefit of the doubt that it was pretty late. Overall, I prefer my taco trucks in DTLA but I guess this is a good option in LB. read more

Hype. Their corn tortillas do have a distinct taste. But overall, the taco is not that great read more

Great al pastor tacos! Their burritos are really big and taste amazing as well. Easy parking in the grocery store lot they are set up next to. Will definitely come back if I am in the area again! read more

Decided to try this spot because I've heard lots about it and I'm a huge taco fan. I ordered pastor tacos and one asada. The tacos were a little salty for my taste, in the future I would probably get the meats in a burrito or try out the potato here just to mellow it out rather than eating it straight on a taco. Aside from that, the meats were packed with a lot of flavor and I can see why it's a popular spot! Not a bad place to try out, but if salt bothers you it may not be the spot for you. read more

Best tacos ever!! Try their Al pastor and carne asada tacos I usually get 3 al pastor and 3 carne asada with everything, (onions, guac, and hot sauce please!) 10/10 read more

Great tacos. Huge portions for a great price. Fresh off the grill you can taste. Taco Tuesday is a must ! read more

Went to try their loaded baked potato and I was a bit disappointed. The potato wasn't fully cooked it was still hard and had no flavor

I don't have to drive in LA traffic to get their food at their other spots in Eagle Rock and Echo Park then stand in their long lines. Glad they have a set up on this side of town in Long Beach with minimal wait. They have fresh hand made tortillas as you often see them making them. The flavor of their food and salsa is incredible. Get the loaded potato with al pastor you won't regret it. read more

Definitely worth the drive! Portions were more than enough and the horchata was gas (: 10/10 service.

Wow there was a big line it took forever because the tortillas are hand made .. but the tacos i had wore not good salsa was not good i did not like the food .. waiting to long for a taco read more

Charged me higher than what the menu stated , the food was ok but not worth what they charged me

It was cool...especially off the late night. Their customer service wasn't bad, quite friendly. And after walking past the other stands that were out, they had the more reasonable prices for reasonable amount of food. The location was right outside of the mineshaft but I'm sure they move around the area. read more

One of the Best Al pastor in town! Corn tortillas are made on the spot, huge al pastor meat roasting on the spot. I love all their green & red salsa, red salsa def have a kick, but it's good if you like it spicy. Their burritos and quesadillas are also good, huge! Great service, friendly staffs, line goes by pretty quickly, just be patient, worth the wait. They take cash & zelle. Follow on IG to get updated times and locations through out so cal. read more

Game changer! My friend has been telling me to try this place for years. We were hesitant, until we tried it. It changed our taste of tacos for the BEST! Hands down Al Pastor is the go to protein on any thing: burrito, taco, vampiro or nachos. Carne Asada is the second best. Followed by the Pollo. In my opinion the protein speaks for itself, the salsa, guac, onions/celantro is just an added bonus. read more

This is by far the best tacos I've ever had, hands down! I found out about Angel's tacos while searching for tacos and made the trek to their Eagle Rock location. Worth the drive, everything was bomb!! I was pleasantly surprised to find out they have a location in Long Beach, CA. After finding out about the Long Beach location I am here on a weekly basis to get my taco fix. I highly recommend the queso al pastor tacos... It's heaven in your mouth. Sometimes I feel the tacos are a bit salty, however the flavor, taste and generous portion size outweighs a little salt. Give this location a shot, it maybe your next favorite go-to local Taco spot. Can't beat 4 queso tacos, a burrito and horchata for under $30!! read more

Chorizo was greasy (what do you expect), but do not regret it. They were very quick and friendly regarding service. Luckily they took cash and Zelle.
