Tacos Uziel - Pop-Up Restaurants Near Me - Long Beach, California

Tacos Uziel always has a line but it move quick and it's worth the wait. The guys give great service, make your food to order, and are alway cool. Their tacos are so good, especially the Al pastor. I also love their carne asada torta. It's nothing fancy, just good asada, lettuce, tomato and fresh slices of avocado. They also have a tasty variety of salsa, grilled onions, jalapeños, aquas, and drinks. At torta and horchata will run you about $12, tacos are $3 ea. This is a popup, corner taco stand so there is a couple of seats and a small table. I love to order and just eat on the trunk of my car. If you're craving some quick tacos, give this spot a try! read more

They give you the burrito open and let you fill it with the sauces and chopped up veggies. It's inexpensive and delicious. Couldn't recommend this place more. Worth it if there's a line and the lines move fast. read more

Some of the most delicious tacos I have ever had in Long Beach and this is a city rife with places get tacos. My friend told me there is always a line to order food here and sure enough, there was when we arrived and it was even longer when we left with our food. But damn these tacos were so tasty. I am already thinking of coming back on taco Tuesday when they are only 1$ or maybe trying their burrito next time I come by. These are an absolute must try! read more

Some of the most delicious tacos I've ever had in my entire life. Came here late at night on a recent visit and had at least two or three different Taco varieties and also had something new to me a mulata. Is that right next to the taco stand had a table and chair that is set up. The guys that helped me don't really speak English but they were friendly and helpful nonetheless. If I'm ever in the area I will definitely be back. read more

Good tacos, just not necessarily as good as I had hoped based on the reviews. The portions are generous and you get plenty of meat. However I've had better at other places in Long Beach. The meat was good but not great, and the same for the salsas. They don't make their tortillas from scratch, which may or may not matter to some people. Again this place is good and I would definitely recommend giving it a try, it's just not my favorite. read more

Great tacos and burritos for a surprisingly good price. Their burritos are bursting at the seem with meat, and as of this writing, only $10--or $8 on Wednesdays. These are truly monster burritos that you'd pay about $16 for anywhere else. Cooked fresh in front of you, plus I love that they put cheese on the tortilla and then melt that in on the grill before adding in all of the other stuff. After grilling the tortilla and adding the core (meat, rice, beans, grilled onions...all optional) they hand it to you so that you can then go and put in other stuff, before taking it back and rolling it tightly. Their tacos are just as good, but I go for the burritos. They're a pop-up so they're in a few different locations. Most recent with in the old Firestone on 7th/Locust. read more

get the asada tacos PLEASE! The beef is crispy and the salsas are delicious - the habanero is hot as hell but so tasty. I recommend stopping at any and all taco stands and Tacos Uziel is no exception. Cash only. read more

Yummy street corner food with good prices for the amount of food given. I got the potato with sliced meat (sorry I can't remember the name). Definitely will go back to support this small business. PS don't forget to bring your cash as it's cash only read more

Tacos Uziel - Al Pastor burrito $10 - Pop-Up Restaurants Near Me - Long Beach, California

See all

The tacos I had (Asada, Al Pastor, Chorizo) were great. They're medium sized but very flavorful and well worth the $2.50 each. I also liked the array of condiments, including a spicy onion-habanero mix. I will definitely be back -- this is an exceptionally good place for street tacos, and I'm planning to try some of the other items as well. read more

The food is always on point and the people who work there are awesome! I'm not even going to mention the price on Tuesdays, I want for you all to be as surprised as I was. But you'll be blown away by what you get and how little you'll spend, trust me! There's only been a couple times where they weren't open on a Tuesday but that has been few and far in between. I believe they are open every night, I could be wrong. But you HAVE to go to this place one Tuesdays for taco Tuesday. I believe they open at 6pm, and you will wait in a line but it's SO worth it!! read more

I really want to gatekeep this spot but I'm not bc these guys deserve the love. The food here is phenomenal! The tacos, burritos, quesadillas, papa loca, tortas etc. all their ingredients are spot on. The meat is charred and grilled to perfection. Even the agua frescas are bomb! Great service, nice guys. Great spot, my spot! Always going here read more

Probably the only street taco joint in LBC that grills the asada on charcoal. By far my favorite place to pick up a burrito or some tacos. they are very generous with the meat, I usually ask for xtra asada on my burrito for an xtra $1. love they have the grilled onions and nopales. read more

Our favorite taco stand in LB Burritos filled enough for two! Extra large patio a of meat and amazing tacos. El pastor is our favorite but carne asada is a close second. Price are so reasonable Recommend highly read more

Taco Tuesdays $1 tacos. Carne asada well seasoned and marinated. Al pastor was very flavorful as well. Small size taco but lots of meat and sides available for your choice. Get there early on Tuesday bc there's a long line. read more

5 stars. This is my go-to for my Tuesday Tacos and burritos. I've been here a million times because it's right in front of the ballet studio En Pointe Dance and Fitness I have taken a million ballet classes from. The al pastor is off the charts and their $1 taco Tuesdays are to die for. They have the 3 chopped salsas, 3 types of liquid salsas, and they have these grilled onions and grilled cactus as condiments at times. The beauty of this place is that it sometimes has a little seating area, so you can eat it right there when it's not too cold. When you come on Tuesdays for their dollar tacos, the wait is horrendous, but come later in the night as the crowd generally dies down. The best part about their burritos is that it's super reasonable, $8 without cheese and $10 with; also they let you fill up the burrito with as much chopped/liquid salsa and anything else before they wrap it up. I eat here so often, I'm surprised I don't speak Spanish already. Thank goodness learning the language isn't a prerequisite to stuffing all this food into my tummy. read more

Please let me say I hate doing this. I've been coming to this taco stand for the past 2 years for the best $1 taco Tuesday in LB. This Tuesday was just like the others, or so I thought. Can someone please tell me how 10 tacos and a stuffed potato cost $35? I keep doing the math in my head and I can't make sense of it. It left me feeling taken advantage of, which I hope was not the case. If taco Tuesday is no longer a thing, then my bad. Maybe a bit more transparency will be nice. read more

My go to tacos spot in Long Beach! Very tasty and affordable. Cash only. There's a bit of a line but is worth waiting. Highly suggest it!

Amazing food. And they are out there rain or shine. The burritos are huge and such a good value for the money. The tacos are also really good. I have had both the carne asada and the al pastor. Both meats were so tasty. The guys are really friendly and the operation is very clean and efficient. We love Tacos Uziel! read more

Absolutely CANNOT PASS THIS PLACE WHEN OPEN!!! It's literally impossible!! CASH ONLY My hubby and I always get the carnitas burrito with grilled onions and ask for a grilled jalapeño as well after adding some spicy salsa. The service is A+!! Everyone is so sweet and friendly and as I'm writing this I'm literally feeling my mouth beginning to water!! They have el pastor as well! The carnitas though is simmering in a huge pot and then they take some out, break it apart (super tender) and grill it for a minute. Their tortillas are huge and usually ass cheese to throw on the grill and melt it. They have fresh acqua frescas, salsas, sliced radish and cucumbers. We've tried many places like this and Tacos Uziel is the BEST POP UP place we've found and we crave going at least once a week. There may be a line so be ready, but it moves fast!! Located outside on the corner so there's plenty of room for the line to sometimes wrap around the corner. We live these guys and might even go tonight! Sooooo good! read more

People that be reviewing these taco stands never had real tacos from the motherland before lmao. Had an Al Pastor and Cabeza taco and both were basura. read more

Although this my first taco in LA, this place blew my former favorite (Taco El Jalascience, Chicago) out of the water. It tasted super authentic and it was actually light on the wallet. Whatever the beef and cheese between two tortillas toasted on the grill is, I loved it. And the Al pastor tacos were to die for! I loved how you can add your own stuff and get sauces. My only negative are the small cheap napkin's. This place is messy, therefore those cheap diner napkins don't work really well. read more

Tacos Uziel - Murietta? And Al Pastor tacos - Pop-Up Restaurants Near Me - Long Beach, California

We have tried A LOT of the taco stands in Long Beach and downtown LA. These are hands down the best tacos we've tried. They're so good, they made us switch from our regular taco stand that we used to go to once a week. Now we only go here. The meat is soooo flavorful. The salsas are all really great too. The red has a sleeper heat that builds over time. And they have great toppings as well. They do always have a line but they're fast! And they're always friendly. Truly, do not sleep on this taco stand. There is a reason there is always a line there!! read more

These are some mighty fine tacos! I had 3 Pastor tacos and my kid had 2 asada tacos. Great flavor! I like their double thin tortilla approach. read more

Street taco stands are popping up faster than pimples on teenagers, but this stand consistently has a crowd gathering around it. The physical testament of customers can't be wrong. The service was efficient, with a wide selection of meats (including lengua, cabeza, and vegetarian). There were also grilled jalapeno peppers with onion that went really well with the tacos. You fill your own toppings to go and the salsas have serious burn. Parking was easy at the empty mechanic's lot at night or in the adjacent lot for the shopping center. We didn't order the drinks from them because my son prefer to get the boba drinks from Ding Tea next door. read more

amazing chorizo & carnitas, and their prices are great too! this is the best taco spot in the area by far

Enough said!! Everything is 10/10 Portions are great & food is delicious! My favorite taco stand read more

Cabeza tacos are the best here!!! The guys are attentive and they serve quick! Salsas are delicious too! They even have baked potatoes!

Classic taco stand with good food, generous portions, and friendly servers. $1 Street Taco Tuesdays or $2 regular tacos everyday. If you come on Tuesday, make sure you come early to beat the lines! They are super generous with meat portions and they offer a free side of rice and beans with every purchase. Bonus for the self-serve toppings and sauces, so you can load up! Tips: - Parking available in the Laundromat parking lot next to the stand - Check their instagram program for their updates hours of operation. They have been closed randomly before read more

This is a popular tacos stand in the area. It is located on Termino Ave and 7th street. This tacos stand is popular, and there could be a line at times. Services was fast. We ordered a cabeza mulitas, carne asada tacos, and el pastor tacos. All the meat were well prepared. They were fresh, juicy, and tender. There were 3 dressings, and I like the avocado dressing the most because it is not spicy. There were 2 drink options, and I chose the watermelon juice. There was a table with 4 chairs for customers to use, but I saw a lot of people bought their tacos as to go. Price was reasonable. Street parking. Will come back again. read more

I love tacos and I've driven by this taco spot many times. I finally decided to try it on a non Tuesday. Tuesdays the line is waaayyy too long. I had asada, chicken, chorizo, and al pastor tacos. They were all sooo good. I think my favorite were the carnitas. Everything tastes fresh. We also had a agua de pepino and jamaica agua. I prefer the pepino but that's just me. I am definitely going back to try their burrito and papa rellena. They are on the sidewalk so it's out in the open. You can either have it there or take it to go. The gentleman there are very friendly. read more

Definitely the best street tacos in Long Beach! I can see why there is always a long line, but it seems to move fast. It really feels like being in a taqueria back in TJ. For me the standouts were the Asada(smoky as it should be), Chorizo, and Suadero. So glad we have places like this around. read more

Finally I had cash while driving down this place and OMG super good the burritos are well packed and the staff is really nice just wished they take credit cards or Zelle just so I can come more often ! Other than that it's always busy so line is super long but I 1000000 recommend go get tacos tortas burritos I need to try the torta next lol read more

I'm fortunate to live close to this stand. Everyone in my family loves something here. My faves are the papa asada loaded with cheese, meat, and cooked onions. Also the burritos, especially the al pastor. Whatever you choose, the portions are more than fair! read more

Tacos Uziel - Firing up the al pastor - Pop-Up Restaurants Near Me - Long Beach, California

TLDR: If you see them, have cash, and can stop: do stop, get food, continue on. You won't regret it. Especially the al pastor. I'm not an expert on Mexican cooking, but this stand is slinging delicious food, getting through their line of customers quickly, and are generous with their portions. On the drinks side, I can only vouch for the horchata (great). I haven't found any better prices for what they're offering, but go elsewhere for greens; you'll find none here. Don't expect to chat, though; they've got a job to do: get the person behind you loaded up. There's no ambience here besides the (excellent) smell. read more

3.5. the meat is grisslier and chewier than you'd like. flavors are good. wish they kept the al pastor on the flat top a tiny bit longer to get some char. good prices. no handmade tortillas. liked the asada flavor. read more

We came across this place on Instagram about 3 months ago and have really wanted to try it. Today we finally had the chance and I am so happy we did! Mexican food has not hit like this in well over a year. Is it just me, or has food in general gone downhill? Anyway I cannot recommend this place enough. I'm very careful when it comes to pop ups. At the very least they have to have a good reputation as well as be busy. We ordered a carnitas taco and a carne asada burrito. The taco was $2.50 and the burrito was $10.00. The burrito by far was the better deal. It was LOADED with tender asada and I added beans and cilantro and onions. Before they wrapped up the burrito they offered to let me put on my salsa which I appreciated. It was super filling and I wouldn't want to eat it by myself. In fact we split it so it was perfect!! All for $10!!! Love it!!! The carnitas taco was amazing!!! Next time I'm going to order a carnitas burrito. But both were outstanding!! The employees were very friendly and courteous. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and cannot wait to go back. The only place I'd like to see improvement is the salsa. Their hottest wasn't that hot but the food was so good I don't really care!!! read more

Very good food the only problem was sitting outside but i don't mind since the weather is nice food was amazing they made the meats really good and the things you put on top of the food is good plus the horchata is amazing 5 stars read more

This place has some of the best Mexican food I've tasted period. They cook the carne asada on a grill and you can smell and taste the difference it makes in the meat. They also have chicken, al pastor, carnitas, and some other meats. I've only had the meat but my wife says the al pastor is legit. The only salsa I get is the green and avocado salsa. They're also bomb. The red is too hot for me. They also have other items on the side like onions and cilantro, limes, grilled onions, etc... Lastly, these guys are great. Check them out. read more
