The aguas frescas were also really good, on the sweeter side, but still hit the spot and you can always let your ice melt if you're that type of person. The food trucks are lined up along with some vendors. So you can take a walk from being incredibly full from the scrumptious meal. It is pricey, but going ever so often isn't terrible.

Kevin B. recently wrote a review for the Long Beach area's "Meals on Wheels" program, in the review…read morehe described how helpful the service is for his father. I did a little checking on the program in my area and learned more about the vital support this organization provides. Kevin mentioned a food truck fundraiser for the group; I thought it sounded pretty cool - next thing you know I received an invite to his PYE! Food trucks, getting together with some great Yelpers, and helping a good cause - that's a five star combination - we were in for sure! Five trucks in were in attendance, a priority for my wife was having a healthy meal. In addition I had been a fan of Sam Choy during Chopped "Grill Masters" competition. Therefore, we gravitated toward his Pineapple Express truck. I was disappointed many of their menu items were unavailable. We ordered several items - some hits, some misses. There were tables set up with outside and inside seating available. A solo live musician entertained the inside seating area (some hits and some misses with him too!), volunteers greeted us and offered comment cards for feedback on the event. This was Kevin's First PYE! A fun group of Yelpers that included Rodney S, Laina and Rohlin A, Ruth T, Dave G with his family, and a few others were fortunate enough to join Kevin and his father. I noticed several of the volunteers came by to say hello to Kevin's dad, I could tell the volunteers truly cared about him, and valued him as a client of their service. It was nice to see. 10% of the proceeds from the trucks went to Meals on Wheels, plus we were able to donate directly to a collection container at our table. In addition to putting together a fun group, Kevin arranged for two indoor tables to be reserved for our group - felt like VIP's! Worked out very well - guaranteed seating, and a home base to come back to when going to try another truck. Kevin was a great host, joining each table for a while and making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. Kevin appointed Rodney as his official photographer for the our get together. Thanks for the invitation and Congrats to KB on a successful PYE!

I barely had time to scope out a table, when my three street tacos loaded with tender steak, cilantro and onions were ready. I added some green sauce and grabbed a few cucumbers from the condiment area and sat down with another solo lady diner. Corn tortillas sturdy enough to be single layered held up nicely through the meal. I like simple, quality, affordable food and Panchos fit the bill!

YessVera's Tacos in Long Beach is hands down my go-to spot for tacos…read more I've been coming here for a few years now, and tacos are one of my top five favorite foods, so I'm pretty particular. I've tried almost everything on the menu, with maybe one or two meats left, and everything has been great. I've had the tacos, nachos, burritos, and even the horchata, and they always hit. The sauces though... OMG. That's really what takes it over the top. They're so good I've definitely taken an extra one or two home to use with breakfast the next day. My favorite meat is the asada, and I also really enjoy their potato tacos, which I almost forgot to mention. Super flavorful and always satisfying. Customer service is really nice, and even though they're usually pretty busy, you still get your food fairly fast for the amount of people there. Just a heads up, parking is super limited, so I definitely recommend calling ahead, placing your order, and then picking it up. It's a food truck setup at a market, so it's not really about ambience, but they do have some outdoor seating if you want to sit and eat. Vera's tacos is just a great little spot with consistently delicious food. Definitely one of the best taco spots in Long Beach.

The carne asada here is delish - it's flavorful and tender. I like it taco form, but it's also great in a burrito. Whatever the case, the carne asada is solid. My favorite thing I've eaten so far are the tacos dorados de papa. For about $10, you get 4-5 taco(?) in a little foil tin. They're deep fried, topped with lettuce and crema. The tacos have just the right amount of potato to keep them meaty after a dip in the fryer. The toppings keep it feeling fresh. Deliciouso. Prices are very reasonable, if not cheap. Highly recommend Vera's Tacos if you're looking for something quick and easy.
