I'm exploring my neighborhood on my daily walks with my dog. This hidden gem is located in my hood on a busy street, a few blocks from the Beach. This restaurant is local and in walking distance literally 5 minutes from my house. I decided to try it after I completed my walk. Located on the corner of Broadway and Orange. It's a true mom and pop 20 years owned and in the neighborhood. Upon walking in your greeted immediately. The restaurant is clean old school in decor and very welcoming. I spent a few minutes talking to the owner about the restaurant she's a doll and very kind. I decided on a combination plate potato taco cheese enchilada rice and beans. I added pico de gallo to my order it costs extra. Salsa is free. Potato Taco Potato, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and cilantro. It's a very small taco I need this to be bigger in a combination meal. It's tasty too. 8/10 Rice Again small portions but it tastes very flavorful. 8/10 Beans Small portion very good flavor and seasoned well. 10/10 Habanero salsa Spicy deliciousness I loved it. 10/10 Avocado sauce? Spicy and soo good. 10/10 Pico De Gallo Too many onions for my taste it definitely needs more balance with tomatoes and jalapeno peppers but the flavor was good. 6/10 Salsa Very mild flavor and in heat it paired well with the complimentary chips. 7/10 Complimentary homemade and fresh fried. Tortilla Chips that were crunchy very fresh and taste soo good. 10/10 I'm glad I stopped by I'll definitely return I want try their Pozole Tamales and more of the salsas and chips. Until next time. Just me Shawn C. read more

Always great thank you, we get the albondigas soup and nachos supreme. Also the Habanero salsa is my favorite.

The food was amazing here, ambience was lovely, and service was incredible! OLGA was a fantastic host; she was very kind, and hospitable to my husband and I. It felt like our Tía was helping us! We ordered delicious Micheladas to start off, chips and guacamole and we both ordered wet burritos. I got the vampiro burrito and my husband got the California burrito! We cannot wait to be back! I will try the Chilaquiles next time! 10/10!!! read more

This is my local spot. My favorite thing to get here is the machaca breakfast burrito. The shredded beef is incredible and its so big. I normally split it and eat half for lunch. Their norma red salsa isnt very hot but is very pepper heavy so heads up. read more

Tried out some of their new dishes. The chilaquiles and breakfast skillet. They hit the spot. Always has a nice and cozy atmosphere and the owner is friendly as always. There's a new chef and some new menu items, so I'll be back to try some of the new stuff. read more

The worst food I've ever had on multiple occasions. Thought they were just having a bad day... no. 3 separate times, each time an even worse experience. The burger special was inedible, the burrito we ordered was tiny. Truly terrible food, sorry. read more

Wow, what a great little place with the best Mexican food in town. Just at Broadway and Orange, the staff is friendly and fast. It's fun to dine in and then stroll the 3 short blocks to the beach. The giant tostada was perfect with lots of chicken. And the carne street tocos were yummy. Dine in or pick-up. It's casual do no need to dress up. It's just the perfect little place. read more

Disappointing after reading a review of increased price and greed. I agree! I was about to delete my previous review but decided for an update. I stopped going here since my usual plate had increased by $5. I remember the increase since the start of covid of $1 and then $2 which was ok, but for no reason at all the same entre kept increasing. I have always ordered to pick up because their interior looks depressing. I haven't been back to support them in over a year and have no need to. There are better choices nearby for an $18 entre and actually enjoy dining in for that matter. Good luck! read more

I used to love this place. They have gotten so ridiculous. I went in to order a BRC burrito chimichanga style and she said "18.98" I said "18 dollars for beans, cheese and rice?" She said "it comes with sour cream and guacamole" I said "you mean the 1/4 of an ounce size "scoop" you put next to it?" The sour cream and guacamole is a teaspoon of each at best. There's a difference between inflation and greed. Or overcharging to make up for the fact that you have no business........because you overcharge.....so you have no business I will miss this place. read more

Went to pick up tacos & the waitress was on the phone talking to someone she didn't get off the phone while getting my chips together the never got off the phone TACKY read more

OK, this place is pretty amazing... Their Mole is bomb! So spicy and sweet. I absolutely enjoyed my plate when I came here on an early Friday night. It's pretty hard to find a well-made mole, but they definitely know what they're doing. I would say that my plate was rather pricey. It was about $30 for a plate and a beer and a tip, but the food is quality. Will definitely be coming back. read more

not only we found hair in the ships and salsa but there was a large fly larvae parading across their dinning area. DISGUSTING,,, WE RAN OUT OF THERE. GROSS. read more

If you want to eat authentic Mexican food this is the the best place in Long Beach. They have the best Menudo period. We tried their enchiladas and Chile relleno it was to die for. It's way better than Rivera's on 7th st. The service was amazing I felt like was at home away from home. read more

Really great Mexican food! Lots of standard items and plenty of traditional meals with creative and delicious updates. Friendly and prompt service, good prices and portions. Yes yes yes! read more

During the shutdowns due to the pandemic we've been trying to support local, non-chain restaurants. Hacienda Ruan is a family Mexican restaurant run by nice people. We were walking by and a woman popped out to give us a takeout menu, and we called in our order later that day. It was ready within 15 minutes and nicely packaged with a couple of salsas. I really enjoyed the smooth guacamole salsa that had a hint of spice. I haven't eaten inside but it looks homey and has a classic Hispanic feel to it. We ordered the Mar y Tierra Burrito with Carne Asada, grilled shrimp, rice, pinto beans, pico and cheese. It was pretty good, and I highly recommend that you order it wet. The slightly less good dish was the Enchiladas served with rice and beans, which was lacking a bit in flavor. I went with one beef and one chicken, and the beef enchilada was more flavorful than the chicken. The food was similar to Super Mex in my opinion. read more

The food here is fantastic and so is the service. I stayed and ate at the restaurant and the staff were so friendly. I love Mexican restaurants like this that aren't part of a big restaurant chain. Highly recommend this spot. The burritos were large and tasted amazing. read more

This place was a ripoff!! I mean straight robbery, I ordered a tostada ceviche, barbacoa plate which the serving is very small, a small side of rice for Togo and the total was $60 dollars!! I thought the chips and salsa was free it was 8 bucks for 2 orders! Wtf Never again read more

Good food, clean restaurant, great service! Today, I had a bowl of menudo. It was really good. I ordered it with extra meat for $4. But no extra meat. Go figure. I really do like the food here, but it can be hot inside as theres no AC. Especially during summer. Parking is impossible, but if you're in the hood, it's not an issue. Decent micheladas. read more

The food is delicious and the servers are very friendly. Will be returning in the future.

DO NOT GO HERE! I don't know how this place is in business. My first bad impression was there was no music and there was only two people in a place that seats maybe 40 people. I ordered chicken enchiladas with a chicken taco. The enchilada looked like it was made in 5 min. It was just chicken rolled in a tortilla with cheese and sauce poured on top. It still looked good, just lazy, but when I cut into the "enchilada" the chicken was the pinkest I've ever seen! When I told the waiter, she said that's normal and it stays pink like chicken tuna. I said "what is chicken tuna?" And the waiter shows me a picture of Chicken of the Sea brand TUNA!! She didn't believe me when I told her that's not chicken! I can't make this up. At that point I really didn't trust her about the chicken. She was still sweet and offered to take it back if I wasn't comfortable eating it. I was so hungry by then that instead of leaving I asked for a beans rice and cheese burrito with red wet sauce. I thought you can't mess that up and there's no meat so it felt safe. But the wet sauce on the burrito was brown and tasted like thanksgiving gravy. For all of that, even though she didn't charge me for the enchilada and taco plate, I payed almost $20 for chicken that could have given me food positing and a burrito that was aweful. Way over priced for less than basic Mexican food. read more

Hacienda Ruan - Beware! Pink Chicken! No that's not beef or pork! - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Everything on this menu is so good. From their burritos, to their tacos & their plates, everything I've had is amazing. My go to is the California burrito or the El Salvador burrito - you need to get extra green salsa because it is just to die for!!! Their chips are addictive, I finish them every time I say I'm not going to. Their crispy tacos are so good I get them in addition to anything else I order. One time I forgot I ordered and I was 30 min late to pick it up and they had kept my burritos warm for me that whole time! They're so quick to make orders, customer service is great and their food is fantastic - love love love Hacienda Ruan! I probably order from here at least once a week read more

I remember this place when it was called Mi Lupita's. Several years ago they didn't speak English very well, and my Spanish is limited, but they always treated me like family, and their food was consistently delicious! Although I moved out of the area long ago, I think it's still run by the same people. I notice they still have the George Deluxe burrito on their menu. I used to get it with carne asada and mojado style "to go" for my friend who lived several cities away, but said their George Deluxe burrito was the bomb! Really nice place & great food. I'll have to pay them a return visit soon! read more

Lowering the rating because they are still not open for folks to dine-in. They are still 100% to-go. Of, course they stopped including chips and salsa a long time ago because of inflation, which I understand. But, I'm done paying more for less for take-out. I'll eat there again when I can sit in a booth. I have lived right around the corner for over thirty-years now and guarantee I'd eat there at least once a week if I could actually eat there. read more

The staff was extremely friendly and the food came out pretty quickly! The taquitos were such a great crisp! I got the California burrito, which hit the spot. What you need to get is their churros though, so delicious!! read more

There was literally an open staple in my husband's food!!!!!! Omg this could have ended soo badley if he didn't notice when he was chewing he could have swallowed it! We usually get a taco for our dog too ... if we had given this taco to our dog it could have killed her!!! The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is bc we have eaten here for a few years now (the food is decent tasting & affordable) & I am a big supporter of small business. But honestly can't eat here again after this happened. A fully opened staple in the meat is very dangerous. read more

The service was really good and the restaurant is easily accesible. I ordered the chilaquiles rojos and they were one of the best i've ever had! Very authentic! The server was really nice and social, I enjoyed the overall vibe would definitely recommend!! read more

Run far away yelp community! I don't know how this place is in business! I came here due to the taco Tuesday deal advertised in their pictures (which is no longer a thing) and was let down knowing I wouldn't be enjoying my initial planned meal of street tacos and a margarita. I tried the number 7 combo with tamale, enchilada, and a taco plate. Now I don't think I've ever given a Mexican restaurant this low a star but it was truly terrible. None of my meal was appealing look or taste wise and I actually left the taco unfinished since I rather not put this "stuff" in my body since it's far from food. I also like many reviewers have a slightly rumbling tummy following this meal. I highly suggest checking my other reviews for quality Mexican food because even I can cook up better meals then this restaurant and I never cook! read more

We decided to look for an authentic Mexican place in the morning after a night of partying for a nice hot bowl of pozole and lo and behold, Google Maps directed us to Hacienda Ruan. It had a very unpretentious setting with excellent ambiance and staff- lots of booths and a friendly owner named Olga. She kindly went over the menu telling us what was great here and we decided to stick with the pozole as that was what we wanted- but not only was there red pozole, there was also green pozole! The dishes were just as good as what we had in Mexico! The flavor was full and we could tell the ingredients were fresh. We will definitely come back to try the rest of their delicious menu- there are a lot of authentic-looking dishes here! This will definitely be a regular place for us! read more
