First time here living here for 5 years and just down the street. Chicken quesadilla was okay. The chicken had no flavor. I gave it a 3 star because I loved the waitress that was helping us and she was very nice. Clean restaurant and obviously quiet for 10:00am However, we will be back! read more

The decor is totally authentic design I would dine here again ..... read more

So...they started handing flyers on peoples cars..and I thought cool a promising store to eat Mexican food...how wrong I was...PLEASE SAVE YOUR DINERO AND VE OTORO LADO ...first impression...the restaurant looks very great looks like a cool bar....food wise just like you vending machine..rigged....over priced...for beans.....bland...both food and sauce...maybe I should have gotten platter...but your burrito/torta/ and sauce is underwhelming...the food is catered to white people(sorry folks dont Lynch me) ..the only thing worth the trip was the cucumber aqua fresco. I hope my tip will save your store...for a little longer.. Ps...if your gonna post flyers...and be expensive...just dont...your wasting money...put money in your food...not the way your store or the menu looks...THE FOOD IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR APARIENCIA. read more

Well once again here for my father's birthday lunch.. this place continues to disappoint me and my family.. orders were wrong, brought out our orders almost an hour late and no tortillas until 30 mins laterthe prices not worth the food... need better management and more staff.. lastly my grandson food came out 1 1/2 hour late so his meal was free. The least they can do for the bad service!! read more

I've had breakfast and lunch here and it been fabulous. To start, the chips and salsa, stellar. This is the litmus test and it passes with flying colors. My favorite things to eat in any Mexican restaurant are wet bean and cheese burritos (these are wonderful here), cheese quesadillas (redundant, I know--and these are wonderful, but do not recommend for take away) and chili relleno & cheese enchilada combo (omg). The margaritas are also amazing. There is nothing I've had that I would not recommend. I go there by myself if I can't get anyone to come with me. Oh. The guacamole. To die for. The service is also lovely. Would I recommend? Yeah. read more

Picked this spot because they had convenient free delivery to work. We just paid tip. Note: It would be beneficial if you speak Spanish, but they had someone else, that spoke English, take my order over the phone. -Asada torta. 4/5 -Cali burrito. Tortilla was really hard. Mostly fries. Very fatty asada. Pico de gallo was delicious. After reading what it was supposed to have in it, it was a complete fail. No rice or beans or onions or cilantro. Only had fries, Asada, a tiny amount of sour cream and 1 piece of lettuce. 1/5 -Sausage breakfast quesadilla. Just basic. Too many potatoes. Barely any egg. Barely any cheese. Would not get again. 2/5 -Aguachiles. Very spicy but delicious. Lots of sauce. Too much that it spilled all inside the bag and tons of sauce was still in the container. 5/5 -Ceviche mixed boat. Good mix of seafood. Good amount for price, but not enough lime juice, so not too flavorful. 3.5/5 -Baja fish taco combo. Tacos were small. 3.75/5 -Free chips tasted like they were made in older grease. Nobody ate them. Will we order again? Maybe for the convenience. Will we order different items? Definitely. read more

My family and I have been a regular here ever since I was younger. It brings back so much nostalgia and joy for us to be here. Unfortunately, I think they changed management a few years ago. Ever since then it hasn't been the same. Went here today with my family and our waitress definitely wasn't familiar with the breakfast menu. There were combos that didn't actually include things on the menu (ex, the french toast combo doesn't come with hashbrown). We waited around 30-40 mins for our food, and it was just alright. Our combos came with toast too, and when we asked the waitress for it, she said "you have to ask when you want it, we don't just give it". I didn't know we had to ask for the food we paid for? Ever since management changed, we've tried to come back several times because we really enjoyed it before. Unfortunately I think this is the last time we'll be coming here. read more

I've been eating here for a few years. The food is really good. The service is as well. We usually have delivery. Also nice and timing is a plus. Well, I took my daughter and son n law from Texas for breakfast take-out. My 1st time inside. It was pleasant. They had live band equipment, TV's playing different shows. It was cool. Well, this time they received 4 stars because my order was half wrong. I wasn't a happy camper. I'll just check before leaving read more

The staff was nice, but paid far more attention to the tables with single men. That being said, we came about 1500 and there were only three tables with people so we hit the sweet spot time-wise. We shared five tacos then had individual entrees. I'll get into the details below. Tacos: we had the street tacos with cilantro, no onion. The corn tortillas were well prepared, we were able to make two tacos from each one ordered without the tortillas collapsing or tearing; definitely a treat. Al Pastor. I'm not usually a fan of Al Pastor, but here it wasn't overly sweet. My son said it wasn't the best he'd had, so we agreed to disagree. Pollo. The chicken was juicy and subtly flavored; although I prefer the hard chicken tacos at Baja Sonora, these were really good. Carnitas. The meat was juicy and really tasty. Birria. Very juicy and flavorful. Shrimp. Oh yum! The shrimp were of a good size, juicy and wonderfully seasoned. They weren't tiny, nor were they so large that they spilled from the tortilla; just a really good size to star in this taco. I ordered my usual "first time at a new restaurant" order of the chile verde plate. After the chips, salsa, and tacos I had to take most of it home, but only did so because I was taught not to waste food. Although the meat was tender, the sauce completely lacked flavor and the texture was...odd. The refried beans weren't bad, but the rice was completely dried out and crunchy hard. My son ordered the carne asada burrito, wet. He ate about half and shared a bite of the asada which was not seasoned at all. It also had no char so the texture was more braised meat than grilled meat. I was very happy we hadn't ordered a carne asada taco. All that being said, the chips and salsa were really (really) good. The chips were crispy, but not greasy or salty, and the salsa was a blended, not chunky, salsa full of flavor with no seeds or stems (don't ask! Lol) We'll definitely be back, but will only have chips, salsa, and tacos next time. read more

It was discussing I didn't even eat it! I wouldn't Recommend this place! I will be staying away! read more

Bonanza Restaurant - This is the piece of plastic I got on my food - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

I came here because Tacos El Cuervo down the street was randomly closed. Visually: Really nice art. Colorful, vibrant and eye catching! they have tall comfy booths on the perimeter and tables in the center. They have jukebox my daughter and I used. $1 per song. That's pretty cool! There wasn't anyone in here, so I can't really speak of the ambiance or people around. Service: Service was good. Not exceptional. Very sweet woman. Didn't check in on us, so my daughter had to walk up and tell her she wanted ice cream for dessert. Still nice though. Food: Tacos Tuesday- so I ordered a taco de papa, carnitas, and papa. All of them were 3/5. Maybe the taco de papa was a 4/5. It had repollo, diced tomato, lettuce and the papa was nice and salty. So, it was flavorful. The Carnitas was really bland and dry. My daughter's chicken Tacos (she asked for cheese on top) were not grilled. The chicken looked like they just took it out the caldo pot. So it was boiled chicken. Not good. Aguachiles-Okay, I am particular with aguachiles, I eat them often and pay attention to details. The plating was esthetically pleasing because the pepino and onion were so thinly sliced. However, this is part of the reason why I think it lacked in flavor. The lemon juice marinade was really watery and doesn't taste like they put enough spices or chile. It was not spicy, at all. I had to use the limes they give you for the table, salt. Pepper, and asked for their spiciest salsa to add to my Camerones. A good aguachile by my definition would be SPICY, marinate a little more thick consistency (not watery), good slices of pepino that I can scoop a shrimp with, good slices of onion for extra flavor. This was just an underwhelming food experience. read more

I'll have to give this location another shot. There were three customers sitting together at a table who received food and drinks. I place my order for the classics burger, no cheese, no onions, no thousand island dressing. Bacon,Pickles, tomatoes, lettuce, mustard and mayo. Burger arrived 15 min later with nothing but pickles and meet I ordered a margarita that was PURE SURGAR not sure what happened but I'll def give another chance. Expect to wait long for beverages and food to come out. read more

I love the upgrade to this place. The food is amazing. I really like the daily specials, and everything on the menu is adequately priced. Really good Mexican food. read more

Price does not equal portion. $16 for huevos con chili verde. Literally had 5 squares of pork. And a charge to use credit card. My bill was $35.28 and they charged a $1.41 "fee" for credit card on top of that! New owners are greedy. The busboy is gone, the servers have to wait tables and clean. I use to love this place, I will NEVER go back! read more

For decades, this restaurant had been part of our Sunday brunch family tradition. We would always come here for the Longshoreman specials. It's just not the same anymore. The quality is gone. read more

Had the carnitas wet burrito presentation looked good but food was flavorless the horchata was good though.

This place is hit or miss with what you get. If you get one of their juice drinks (they make a fancy apple juice that my friend orders every time), it's a definite hit. Their wet shrimp burritos are probably one of the best ones I've had yet (even despite random celery inside). But the shrimp cocktail... A medium is $14 for under ten shrimp, and then a lot of onions. Which is disappointing. Service is nonexistent after food arrives. Place settings are whatever is on the table, set goes for napkins. Overall, it's just meh. read more

I ordered the New York steak offered on their white board and it was served with your choice of vegetables, your choice of potatoes, bread, & soup or salad.. all for $9.99!! The place is a mixture of old western flair with a touch of Hispanic hospitality and the menu reflexes all that. read more

Was driving down Willow looking for any place that called my name for some good breakfast. Stumbled on this restaurant and seen a breakfast sign, so decided to by and try it. When I walked in the lady greeted me and said I could sit anywhere. Seems like all the booth seeting is to accommodate about 6 people, but they have plenty on seating. Menu has a large selection of different options of food to choose from. Good options from breakfast, lunch, dinner, and soups. Ordered some breakfast and the portions are definitely large and delicious. Will be coming out here again and will recommend it. read more

I have been coming here since the 70's when The Bonanza was a big trucker re-fueling diner. It's got a lot of the old school decor now, but is more Latino oriented, and they even have karaoke! Still good basic food, and warm welcoming atmosphere. Not gourmet or fine dining, but you are going to get good portions served with a smile! read more

Not bad but not the best. Got the Birria de Chivo tacos and less flavorful than anticipated. Also the pieces of sliced lightly grilled onion were quite large. The shells didn't hold up too well but I blame that on have to wait to for delivery. I'd probably order again but with modifications. read more

I been here a number of times and was never blown away by anything. Today I finally came to my conclusion. This place is overpriced for no good reason. That's beside the fact that my girlfriend and I both threw up after having the shrimp and fish soup. read more

I used to go to this spot several yers ago and quit going because I haven't been frequenting the area as much. Bonanza came up in conversation today, so I jumped inthe car and made to 20-mile trip from West L. A.. This place is a combination truck-stop/coffee shop which services local folk, truckers and longshoremen in the area. It makes all the sense in the world that the latter two would frequent this restaurant. The portions are large, the service is good, the food is good, the prices are fair and they are open 24 hours. I walked in, helped myself to a menu and picked a seat. Within 5 minutes a waitress showed up and politely asked me for my order, which I already knew. She immediately asked me if I wanted the free chips and salsa, which I said yes to. Within 10 minutes, there was my order staring me in the face. I ordered the Trucker's Special (3 eggs, 4 bacons, 4 sausages, grits, a biscuit and a small OJ). I also ordered a coffee. The food was good and the coffee was awesome. Regarding the service; the busboy came by twice during my meal to top off my coffee and the waitress came by twice to make sure all was well. I felt the service was great. Folks, this is not a place that you go to for world-class dining. It is a place you visit to get the job done with a professional server without the wait. The fact that they don't close doesn't hurt. I am now trying to dream up as excuse to go there again. Hmmm...who do I know in Long Beach...? read more
