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

Birria con consomé y tacos de birria

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

Filete a diabla

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.

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.

Chile Verde Burrito, chicken Quesadilla, 2 Enchiladas with Guacamole and Sour Cream Combo
Mymy L.

Food did not disappoint ! Probably the best chicken quesadilla i've had in a while. Wet chile verde burrito was absolutely delicious (beans on the side) Came here after a night out & got exactly what I wanted + more. Guac was fresh too. Will definitely be back to try more here!

Food absolute perfection. This has become our favorite restaurant. The service friendly and personal. Chili verde tender full of flavor. Tacos and chili relleno my fav. The Birria the best. Comfortable seating. And good parking.

Of all the times I've been here, it's alway been great. The service was amazing and the experience…read morewas all great. This visit, we stopped by during happy hour. It's normally taco Tuesday or dinner. It wasn't busy when we arrived. Mainly everyone was seated outside which we wanted a table as well. There was one that we were interested in and asked if we could have it which the waitress working was ok with. But it needed clearing up. It took a while for someone to come out and clear and clean the table up. It was fine waiting but it was like did someone forget about us. Anyways. We got seated and then the waiting continued. It could be that they were short staff but it seemed like there was only one person working. It took a while for someone to finally come back and acknowledge us and take our order. After that the chips and salsa were brought out. Once we ordered the drinks it was easier to place everything together. Menu for happy hour is pretty limited. A few drinks and beer on drafts and for food, maybe 6 items on the menu. Went with an order of the street corn which was quite tasty. An order of the mole chicken nachos and the queso dip with barria. Out of the three, the queso dips and the street corn were great. Nachos were good but nothing really major. The flavors of everything were quite tasty. Dishes were 12.00 an item. For happy hour, it was decent and what we had was good. The service was pretty slow at the beginning. Only the front patio and inside seating was available as the back patio wasn't open. We did start to see other staff walking in so maybe there was only one staff during the time.

The restaurant was decorated very nicely. Outdoor seating as well as indoor. The service was…read morefriendly and on point.

There's so many places that you see constantly and walked by numerous of time and that is that…read more This place is one of them. I've always wondered what it was all about. Seeing people going in and out which I knew it was a restaurant. Last night we started off with drinks at the speakeasy next door. The two places share restrooms and that's how I found out about this place. Let me say it was a vibe. The first thing you notice from the back, the bar area and Photo Booth. And the live DJ keeping the place on its feet. We ended up wanted to check it out as it was a full restaurant and bar. Friday night without a reservation, spoke with hostess which they could accommodate 6 of us in a bit. Still had to close out at the other place before. The restaurant has a cool vibe with the main dining area in front, bar area towards the back side and on the opposite site is where the DJ booth was. Sam was our waitress who took very good care of us. Very sweet, friendly and of course attentive. Made sure that we were well taken cared of and if anything was needed she was there. It's a cool Mexican restaurant with a cool vibe to match. The place did get lively and was pretty full. You had parties up and dancing and enjoying themselves. Anyway, food and drinks. Started off with some spicy margaritas. Wow, they were strong but good. You had to sip versus drink... lol... Bartender was not playing and in a good way. The menu is somewhat limited compared to other restaurants but what was offered all looked amazing. A modern twist to Mexican food but still with the amazing authentic flavors. Instead of a meal we opted for à la carte and shared everything. Also was informed that the dishes are like tapas and great for sharing. Chips and salsa were brought out which both the chips and salsa were excellent. An order or the aguachille which had that nice sour taste with the lime juice perfectly balanced for the shrimp and trimmings. Served with tostada. The shrimp ceviche, another wonderful dish. Nicely marinaded in the lime juice was very flavorful and also served with tostada. An order of the enchiladas, came with three but we split it for 6 of us. The cheese and filling was very good. The molcajete served in a volcanic bowl stuffed with different meat, cactus, cheese all combined to create an amazing dish full of flavors. A must have and lastly the adobado hamachi collar, yellowtail. Very tasty but did have a fishy taste. Yes it's fish but still. Quite tasty and plentiful. Overall food and vibe was great. The place was definitely lively in the evening. We can finally say we've been and tried some amazing dish. It's a place that worth coming back for more. Parking is a little crazy as residential is always packed. There's a lot across the street which they do utilize but it's can be a bit crowded as well.

Usually for brunch time on the weekend. The first time I've ever had a Tlayuada was here a while back and have always enjoyed it. I was actually craving some since it's been likely over a year since we last visited. The hubby had 2 tacos plates. The birria was very good, the asaea delicious but very rich. I've never been a fan of black beans but these were tasty. My Tlayuada hit the spot and chase it down with a Penelope. When we arrived we were the only ones there. The server was attentive and check on us throughout our visit. Engaging and friendly. The interiors are cost and warm with plants and green as the main color. Nice murals throughout.

It was busy because of the large crowds. We waited for our waiter to come back so we can order some drinks. Once he came back we ordered our drinks which we waited another good 15 minutes for him to return with our drinks. The time line was too long of a wait. He left again, waited another 15 minutes to take our food order. Lol. Ordered my shrimp cocktail along with other entrees. Our waiter was ghosting us every 15 minutes. Overall, the ambiance was busy. It is expected because of the grandprix event. This place needs to up their staffing when events like this is taking place. Food was good but service was dissapointing.

Omg my friend's taco salad was an insane size hahaha. I got the enchiladas which were solid, nothing that really stood out. My friend got the mixed ceviche but they brought him only shrimp ceviche, when we pointed out the wrong order, they quickly took care of it. Then at the end we mentioned that it was both of our birthdays and they brought out 2 HUGE cupcakes!! I mean Ive never seen so much frosting in one place! Great view of the water, and they comp part of your parking so parking was just a few bucks when I left. We had a baby with us and they were super considering and a great kids' menu. Would come back here for a happy hour again!
