Great food and service. Specialty is the Birria. Generous servings. Huge variety of Mexican food options. No Crowds, no waiting. Family friendly environment.

Peinecillo in Adobo Sauce
Prentiss M.

Food was decent! Can't say it's the best just yet until i try a few more items. But atmosphere was chill, can get crowded around lunch time being its between two refineries. The waitress staff could improve slightly, I had a 2 hour lunch meeting and wasn't offered anymore water since i sat down. The guacamole in my opinion is tooooo salty, if you cut back on that a little it'll be just right. The lamb was tender just needs a little more love when seasoning. Happy Yelping

Best place for fried tilapia in Long Beach at Tepechi Restaurant. Always fresh and lots of food. Excellent salsa and chips with impeccable service. Limited parking so be prepared to drive around and look. Big restaurant with cool decors. Almost 30 percent of the people here get the fried tilapia. Highly recommend.

My husband took me here a couple weeks ago. I had never been or even heard of it but he went several years back.... It was really good. The steak with the dish that we got was SO flavorful. *yum* I'd definitely go back.

Birria (Large Original)
Gee M.

First time here. Was told about Tepechi from a friend of mine. I ordered a large birria (Original). Food came out out quick. Hot and very flavorful! The broth had a great flavor and the meat was cooked very well. The only thing this palce needs are home-made tortillas. That would give this place 6 stars. Other than that, service was great and the food was delicious. Come check them out.

We were craving birria and let me tell you this place does not disappoint. They have birria de res y chivo both very delicious. We didn't even take a before picture. The service was great and the environment was very nice. I felt like I was eating in Mexico but missing the Mexico vibes and smells lol. But I loved this place. I will defiantly be coming back here. Really good micheladas as well

Filete a diabla
Jailene S.

DELICIOUS!! From the chips and salsa to my entree, everything was phenomenal. Service was great, the server was attentive and did a great job serving me and my party while serving other larger parties at the same time. The ambiance is relaxing with good Spanish music playing in the background. Thanks!

Chimichanga Combo
Jesus M.

Today was my first time here, I had the chimichanga. It was delicious. The service was great and the place was very nice and friendly. The restaurant was playing great Spanish music. Would definitely come back again! The drinks were tasty.

Birria con consomé y tacos de birria

Very delicious and good quality food will definitely be coming back and definitely recommend

Chips and salsa

As someone who didn't grow up eating Mexican food I was never very fond of it. That being said Tepechi is around the corner from my job and is our go to whenever we have guest visit. It's probably not a stretch to say that they are one of my favorite restaurants not just Mexican food but in general. Food is very authentic and portions are generous. I haven't tried many different dishes because I always get stuck on Birria but everything I've ever gotten was delicious. Definitely stop in if you're in the area and looking for a good meal that won't break the bank.

I am a frequent regular and I highly recommend this place! I have yet to try their brunch, but I…read morehope to soon. The wait staff is incredibly friendly and the food is always amazing. The taco Tuesday deal is pretty great! I find myself there quite a bit! Also, the margaritas and other drinks are really good. I finally branched out on a non-taco Tuesday day and the butternut squash enchiladas, and the yellowtail ceviche were incredible..... like to die for. The Lola's margarita is always a hit. Probably one of my favorite margaritas --it's a classic. I recommend the patio area in the back when it's open, but during the heat and the inevitable bug problem that happens during the summer I would suggest sitting inside.

Spectacular Mexican food! I'm so glad TikTok recommended this place because I may have never…read morestumbled upon it otherwise! I stopped by on a Friday afternoon and waited about 20 minutes for a table. The wait was well worth it because each dish offered an explosion of flavors. My favorite dish was the birria, with the salmon ceviche as a close second. The mole was great too, but I'd say the other two dishes were more memorable and something I'd return for. I can't recommend the birria enough, as the flavors were reminiscent of what I've had in Mexico, very authentic. The space is small and can feel a bit tight, but sometimes the best food comes from these types of "hole in the wall" places. Ultimately, I'd say give Lola's a try! You can't go wrong with Mexican food!

Palapa next door offers the same food menu but has more drink options. Many opted for outdoor seating on the terrace due to the gorgeous views, but not wanting to wait we agreed to indoor seating. The interior of the restaurant is also very beautiful. The bathrooms were too dark for my tastes though. Our waitress was absolutely phenomenal, super friendly and anticipating all of our needs (water refills, leftover containers, etc.). Service overall by all staff was friendly. We were actually presently surprised with the taste of the food, thinking it might be more Americanized but they actually had very authentic and tasty totopos (tortilla chips). The tomato salsa that came with the chips was also very refreshing. We asked for hot sauce too and the house habanero salsa really packed a punch! We ordered carne asada nachos, pork belly chilaquiles (from the brunch menu), a breakfast burrito, poke, and steamed clams. The steamed clams came in a rich tomato broth and the breakfast burrito was massive. The poke was just okay and the chilaquiles a bit too soggy for me, and the carne asada nachos a bit dry. Nonetheless, presentation and portion sizes were respectable. The last comment is that food here is quite pricey but that reflects the likely high rent of a restaurant in 2nd and PCH. Ola still exceeded expectations and provided a more than pleasant meal.

Absolutely fire! This place was a smash hit!!…read more My brother and I came down here for the Formula Drift Championship and Night Lights car show. We were looking for a very authentic Mexican place that was clean and vibrant. From the moment you drive into their parking lot in the rear, you instantly know how much they care about every piece of their entire process. I'm telling you: the manicured parking lot, the detailed attention to us (even though we were the last ones walking into the restaurant at near closing time). They attended to us as if they were awaiting royalty! I've forgotten what real authentic service felt like, and this really smashed it. Beyond that, I can tell you that from the homemade salsa to the absolutely overabundant amount of ceviche, the generous portions of avocado slices on top of it, the authentic tostada, and the fajitas that we split were absolutely over the top. To have any other value other than 5 stars for this place is absolutely mind-blowing! This is definitely a destination location, and I will be bringing my wife and kids to thoroughly enjoy themselves and the quality of food that they have here. This is the Mexican place that has that authentic flavor, that 10-out-of-10 royalty-level service, at a very reasonable value in exchange for everything and more. *To whomever reads this on the ownership side, I personally thank you for the entire process and for the culture that you have created. A restaurant like this, hitting all marks, is definitely missing in our system and society today.

We came to celebrate two birthdays with a party of 15, and unfortunately, the service was extremely disappointing. Our server Enrique barely came around, and even when we thanked him, we received no response or acknowledgment. Customer service has just gone down the drain! At the end of our dinner, after spending over $600 as a group, my husband mentioned that we were celebrating two birthdays. The server's response was, "Well, I will have to charge you for two cakes because you didn't tell me on time." My husband paid for the cakes, of course, but the way the situation was handled was very disappointing and left a bad impression. We chose this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion, especially because we have been coming here for years, and unfortunately, the experience took away from what should have been a happy celebration. With a large party and a bill combined of over $600, we expected much better service and hospitality. Very disappointing experience, especially after coming here for years. Unfortunately we will not be coming back.
