    Inside Seating
    Leonard A.

    Nostalgic vibes are in full effect here for me personally. I grew up eating tacos with flour tortillas believe it or not and it was just that simple thing that made this foodie experience a delicious one. We ordered the Asada and Chorizo tacos that came with a side of guacamole sauce and sliced radishes. Let me tell you, that sauce was banging and topped with radish? It gave it a nice crunchy texture that made this taco a banger. Oh snap, ok I forgot to mention the cabbage too! Combine all those components and you get a banging taco. Since it was my first time I got everything on the side and I hooked it up the way we wanted it. Now I know the next time I order these hand held morsels I'll just get them with everything. The place is small and has limited seating but it moves quickly as people eat and run. The service was good and the vibe is festive. And that's my take on it, Peace

    Many visits to this location under my belt and I've never been disappointed. I've also brought loved ones here from out of town and they always enjoy the food, appreciate the service, simplicity of the menu, and the fast casual experience. Staff try to keep the place clean and are always efficient and fast. I'm glad Long Beach has a location now!

    After hearing there was a Sonoratown in Long Beach, I had to visit! It's casual dining with quality taste! We ordered with the cashier. I got the burrito de asada and added the poblano. Best choice! I highly recommend! The tortilla was soft and buttery! The Manteca was worth it. Cheese was perfectly melted and everything came together perfectly. Food came out pretty quickly. They also have different sized bags of chips to choose from. We had some with the chiltepín salsa, it was firey hot and yummy! A must try for unassuming Mexican food.

    2 tripa tacos , 1 cabeza, 1 asada
    Fernando M.

    First time here. My coworkers wanted to eat here for lunch and they are always talking about it. The food was great! I had 2 tripa tacos , 1 asada, and 1 cabeza. To drink an horchata. Service was quick , the servers are all friendly. Small spot but has plenty of seating. I really enjoyed my food. Definitely coming back. One of my coworkers orders the Caramelo, which is a giant taco with all the fixings! It looked really good!! Going to get that next time.

    Carne asada tacos
    Erick M.

    Quality Tacos with Delicious Flavors! They make their own tortillas in house which gives them high credibility and they use quality ingredients. Food -Carne asada tacos are DELICIOUS. 5/5 carne asada is tender and cut to the perfect size. Tortillas are handmade. You can't ask for more, it's exactly what a tacos should be. Ambiance -proper Mexican food establishment vibes. It's well decorated inside and they play Mexican music for the vibes Service - no issues Overall if you like tacos or are craving them this, is a great place to check out! It's HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    Sonoratown continues to be one of my favorite places for tacos. We are so lucky to have it in Long Beach. They're known for their handmade flour tortillas that have an amazing bite to them. They were just awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand award this week for their excellent, affordable food. One thing that I appreciate about their tacos is that their meats have varied textures. The costilla (rib meat) is a crowd pleaser as you get the taste of the grill/charcoal. They have tripe that is crispy with corn nut texture. Cabeza (face meat) has a stewed texture. Unlike most places in LB, there is two hours free parking conveniently located across the street at the Harvey Milk Community Lot. This is easily one of the best options for tacos in Long Beach and, if you haven't had it yet, then you really should! This is the type of place that we need to support!

    Horchata
    Zeeshan Q.

    Sonoratown offers some very flavorful and fresh tacos and other dishes with a good selection of meats and toppings. I ordered the steak, chicken, and beef head, all of which were flavorful and tender. The sauces added a nice kick, especially the red one. Their horchata was delicious and very cinnamony. Prices were on the higher end for the portion you get. Overall it's a nice place to visit in the heart of Long Beach.

    Burrito 2.0 (asada) Chicken chivichanga With frozen margaritas
    Nicolas J.

    It was decent nothing that wowed me. Margaritas were decent, not crazy flavorful though. Staff were nice and service was decently quick after placing our order. Tried two different flavors of Margarita A burrito 2.0 with asada And a chicken chivichanga which was kinda small and I probably could've eaten two lol. Not a bad spot and I live close so it wasn't out of the way. Limited parking in the area, there is a lot with free two hour parking close by but during events that is a paid lot so be warned. Decent size interior, worth a try if in this side of Long Beach.

    My friends have always raved about Sonoratown's tortillas. They definitely lived up to the hype. I got a chicken chimichanga, an asada Carmello, hibiscus agua Fresca and a brown sugar pie. Everything was delicious. The servers are patient with newcomers. The casual spot has simple tables and fun colorful decor. I can't wait to go back to try more.

    Caramelos and Horchata de Coco
    Brigitte M.

    The tortillas tho.... Have been hearing a ton about this place, so came to give it a try. Interior is super cute with tons of seating. We ordered caramelos with the poblanos inside, as well as their horchata. Tortillas are some of the best I've had. Super soft and flavorful from the grill. The fillings and salsa were good too, but it was really wet, and the bean ratio especially compared to the meat, was a little off. Always am going to want more meat. Horchata was unique since it was coconut based. Overall solid spot with patient staff. Tacos La Rueda is still better, but will be back when in Long Beach.

    When you get inside it's a place where you order and then find a seat. We got here on a Saturday before noon and it was already packed but no wait to place our order. First of all one of their workers with the mastche and tattoos is so cute which is always a plus for the ambiance. It didn't take long to get our food. About 5 minutes and they brought it out to where we sat since we dined in. First of all! You need to get an aguas fresca. We got the medium for the orange mango and the Jamaica. They are so natural. I'm a huge fan of artificial flavor so this was a huge shock, but it pairs so well with their food. My only regret isn't getting the large. For the food we got the burrito 2.0 asada and the chivichanga chicken. The burrito was great but very heavy on the beans. Make sure you get extra green salsa. It's their best and a perfect balance of salty with a hint of sweet. The red salsa gets spicy. If you can't handle hot Cheetos don't eat it. Now the chivichanga thing was perfect. It's so tiny but the fact it's about $5 was perfect. I have never had something so well priced and portioned before. The way I can describe it if you ever wanted to taste high class Taco Bell that will make you want four more then you need to try it. And I mean this in the best way possible. It's so cheesy and savory and yummy!!! Truly just from these two dishes we will be coming back to try the rest of the menu. Our next dishes is to try the tacos!

    Bean and cheese burrito
    Jennifer L.

    The interior of the shop was very colorful, had a good amount of seating, and had loud festive music playing. We stopped in for a carne asada burrito and bean and cheese burrito on a week night and it was not busy. It's nice that they have smaller burrito options that are around $5! They were served with a grilled green onion and radishes The flavor of the carne asada was good, and the tortillas were nice and chewy and freshly made. The different salsas were tasty and the green was our favorite of the three. I'd say they were solid burritos, would consider dropping by for a quick bite if I was in the area again

    Burrito 2.0 insides
    Mark B.

    I have been wanting to try one of their 3 locations for a while now since I have heard so many good things about their burritos. Just looking at the menu, one of the things I liked was how they have party trays and sets you can order for larger parties. The restaurant itself is pretty nice and gives off a classic Mexican feel. Service was great and the food came out pretty quick. We ended up getting two Burrito 2.0s and a Chivichanga to try -- the tortillas were excellent and one of the highlights of the meal, and the fillings and meats were solid, with the salsa being solid as well. Was a solid meal overall and I'm happy I was finally able to give it a try. I would love to go back and try some of the other items in the future.

At the time, I enjoyed the food and considered the drive worthwhile. However, after the restaurant changed cooks, I noticed a decline in the overall quality and stopped returning. Today, I decided to give it another try and stopped by for a small bite. I ordered the vampiro, but unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The meat lacked noticeable seasoning or flavor, which was particularly disappointing given the restaurant's claim of cooking with mesquite coals. The tortilla topping also appeared to be more like a pre-made tostada than a tortilla toasted over an open flame. Traditionally, I would expect a lightly charred tortilla, which adds flavor and texture to the dish. Based on this visit, the quality has not returned to what I remember from two years ago. I was disappointed with the food and do not plan to come back to this location or any other for that matter.

They have a sit-down restaurant, a karaoke room, and even a walk-up window outside if you're just looking to grab something quickly. They're known for their tacos and their spicy habanero salsa, which definitely is spicy, be warned. LOL If you're dining inside, the chips and salsa are top-tier. Sooooo good and addicting! My personal favorite is the shrimp quesadillas. They're tiny, but mighty when it comes to flavor! I also like ordering their oysters. So far, they've always been clean, fresh, and hit the spot. They also have Micheladas, both the traditional version made with alcohol and a non-alcoholic version made with mineral water. Both are really good, and I highly recommend giving them a try! And for dessert, the rice pudding is served cold, and it's honestly one of the best I've had. Everyone I've brought here has been happy with their food and their choices, which says a lot because I've brought many friends and family here. As far as parking goes, you can usually find street parking, there's a parking lot, and there's also parking behind the restaurant. I will say the neighborhood is a little sketchy, but if you're local, it's really not a big deal. If you're coming from outside the city and aren't familiar with the area, I'd recommend just dining inside. There's a lot of homeless and liquor store activities across the street. It's usually not a big deal, but again if you're not used to it, you may freak out. Overall, El Sauz is one of my go-to spots for the late-night munchies, post concert, club, bar etc.

We were so excited to try this place but left very disappointed. It was about $2.7 per taco considering 6 tacos were $16.5. So yeah, given the price, there are higher quality options locally. These unfortunately were crunchy, chewy, premade tortillas, cheese not grilled in properly, birria and chicken so dry and stringy and also tasted premade (you can tell when the meat doesn't retain the juice and is dry, and the flavor is stale), and pickled vegetables that somehow didn't taste pickled. The other problem was the portion of the consomé size, which was way too small. The best thing was the grilled onions and consomé because you literally can't possibly fk that up. Although the consomé was a bit too gravy-like, and thick which considering the quality of everything else...was off putting. Ambiance felt fast paced, cramped parking, and a little dirty from being dated but it also had a fun, casual nightlife vibe. The service was fast and kind. They answered questions quick and politely without rushing us out of line. We had really high hopes for this place. This was not a first time either, we tried these guys years ago but even then it was mid. Now it just confirmed it. We do not recommend coming here unless you are craving tacos you can't make at home with premade ingredients, or find at another restaurant.
