jalapeño in every bite yummy
Christina O.

My go to place to get my favorite ham and cheese croissants since forever bought a few of my co workers and they devoured it and said it was delicious and fresh if, you want to order a few of them you have to order it in advance so they can make it for you b/c these bad boy sale out quick. Servers are polite and sweet and the place is very roomy

3.5 Stars! Donuts and Asian Fast Food! Fast, Easy and Cheap..3.5 Stars! Where else can you stop  and get fast chinese style food and fesh donuts. Wait, theres more! They also have coffee and drinks and are open early.  Nothing beats an all-nighter that is topped off with a togo order of orange chicken, orange glazed donuts and a large coffee. Icing on the cake is that the donuts are fresh and you won't  leave with an empty wallet.   The ladies working here are really nice. The parking lot is small but I have always found a spot. This is a good choice if you are in a rush and want a quick bite, donuts for dessert and not spend a lot.  A dozen donuts will cost you about 40 to 50% less than some of the other local donut spots.  Overall, reasonably priced, easy parking, fast and easy lunch and donuts.

Neither bad, nor great. The food is decent & not too expensive. Menu consist of Chinese food, sandwiches, & donuts.

Closed!

I need my refund. I ordered for my daughters birthday party to be picked up last Saturday OCT 1st and your store is closed due to Gas Leak. I understand but you have to call and inform your customers who's relying on that food. Very unprofessional. Up until now the store is closed and i haven't received my refund.

Great selection of foods!

As donut places go, this is pretty standard offerings, but wait, they serve croissant sandwiches too, which makes a world of difference. Did I mention they make chine food too? This place has breakfast and lunch covered for the working folks here in Long Beach/Carson. The food is excellent, and the two women running the show have their act together. If you have a big order, they even through in a dozen donut holes for good measure. I can't say it's the healthiest of breakfasts, but it sure is good as we slowly get ready for another days duty at work.

A standard looking Chinese fast food joint. They have donuts, fruit drinks, sandwiches, great for those working nearby to stop for lunch. Although it looks very simple, this place has a great variety of food and combinations, something for everybody. The tuna sandwich, however, stands out above all their menu. It is absolutely the best tuna sandwich ever in size, price, and taste. If you like tuna, definitely worth a trip. Not much parking but it's never too busy around here.

Chinese food on the left. Donuts on the right with small seating area in front.

True to the name. Fantastic. The staff here are genuinely kind, quick and efficient without being…read morerushed, and have that sparkle in their eyes that signifies great people. Love the burgers. First time trying. We had 2 cheeseburger combos that came out to $27 and change. Lots of free picked peppers, drink refills, and ketchup pump- yay for no packets! Drinks are large! Fries on point with seasoning and texture. Similar to Pharo's Burgers in Alhambra. You have the option to order at the in-person walk up window or the drive thru. Suuuuper cool they have the option to dine al fresco or in a cooled indoor spot with booths and TV's with the latest soccer match on. We opted to do that and watched a bit of Madrid v. Barcelona. Great quick eats before teaching a Tai Chi class today!

I've given this place multiple chances simply because its location is convenient to wear I work but…read morewow I have yet to have my order 100% correct and each time there's been something a little off with the food. I know prices are raising everywhere but for the price you're paying, SOME food quality would be nice. This was the last straw for me, I ordered a taco and a chicken salad. The taco was so beyond salty and oily I could not eat it. It literally melted thru the bag that's how oily it was and the amount of lettuce on it was almost comical. The salad I thought would have grilled chicken nicely on top but it was actually a bunch of cooked chopped chicken and a grip of cheese melted on top (I was unaware this is how they did their salad so that's my bad but also why put a bunch of hot chicken on lettuce like that??) it wilted the salad underneath which already had some bad leaves in there anyways and kind of defeated the point of a salad for a healthier option. The service is hot and miss, sometimes they're nice enough but a lot of the time it almost feels like you're bothering them or something The inside is your usual American type fast food place. Their burgers and Fries aren't bad (when they give them to you and not a tuna melt instead) but all and all I think it's worth passing on this location. Save yourself some money and some indigestion.

Serving up Louisiana style fried chicken in the LA area, Louisiana Famous Fried Chicken has over…read more100 locations throughout the US, though none in Louisiana itself. Our group of four had a chance to stop by for an early dine-in dinner, and found the chicken to well prepared and tasty. Originally founded in 1976 in Los Angeles by a enterprising franchisee who wanted to create his own fast food brand, Louisiana Famous Fried Chicken soon became very popular with LA residents. As sometimes happens with immigrant communities by word of mouth and 'paying it forward', the burgeoning Cambodians began to be the majority owners of franchisees, until it resulted in the brand being sold to a Cambodian in 2009. Considering the largest concentration of Cambodians outside of Cambodia is in Long Beach, California, I wanted to try this particular location. They also sell donuts here, and my credit card bill actually listed the donut shop as the vendor...this for me is not a selling point, but was not noticeable during our visit. It's a walk-up set-up, where you order/pay for your food through security windows. We ordered a 12-piece family combo for $35.45, which included 3 pieces of breast/thigh/wing/leg, 2 small orders of fries, a coleslaw and 6 rolls. They also sell fried catfish and shrimp, so got a 4 pc shrimp ($3.85). They only sell drinks by cans or bottles, so got 4 cans of Coke/Pepsi/Squirt. It is clearly stated that each order is fried fresh, taking about 20 minutes. Our order was ready in 15 minutes, and we decided to dine-in (a small makeshift outdoor dining area with temporary tables was set-up). The chicken was well brined and had been fried well (leaving plenty of space between the chicken), with the outer coat being crunchy with a little bit of spice. For me it tasted very similar to the popular national chain, but with more consistency. The 'small' fries were not that at all, but very large...with one being enough to feed the four of us. The fries looked underdone, but were not. There were no condiments available, so the saving grace was the thin hot sauce that you could dip your fries and chicken into. The rolls were forgettable, and the coleslaw was grocery store quality (which I actually like). In fact, the chicken and sides reminded me of what you could get at a grocery store deli, except always getting the chicken fresh, instead of ones that have been fried too many to a basket and sitting too long under a heat lamp. Freshness definitely matters here. There was plenty of food for the 4 of us, with us taking half of the meal home. It reheated very well, providing us a good lunch the following day.

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. Flavor Profile (for reference): Umami-forward (savory, salty depth) Acidic or bright (tangy + sour) Pungent and intense (spicy and bitter notes) Drink Preference (for reference): Bitter-forward cocktails Balanced acidity Light sweetness only, not overly sugary

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.
