Tacos Chapala

The food was good. I actually wanted to try the seafood shack that is on this property but it was closed. So came Into this place, looked like a nice little hole in the wall but the girl taking our order was rude with a weird attitude, No customer service. I greeted her and she didn't ease up. she started talking to me only in Spanish so I did too , made an order of 3 different items and at the end when she gave me my order she just started speaking only in English. I was like um...okay? I'm not sure why that was necessary. Honestly I wouldn't come here again.

The food here is great, probably the best Mexican food in Long Beach, which is saying a lot. I've been coming here for years, tried almost everything, and have never been disappointed. I usually get something with carne asada, which is really well prepared - cooked perfectly with a great chop / texture, and no gristle or other unwanted stuff. The red sauce is also nothing short of amazing, if you like it spicy. No joke, it's that good - it should be patented, bottled, and sold in stores. I will always be back!

Tacos Chapala was a great place to eat after we got off the airplane and wanted a good place in Long Beach with an authentic Mexican taste. We knew we were eating good food when numerous locals kept coming in and then we enjoyed a delicious meal that was reasonably priced. The staff was also really nice and the service was fast. Enjoy Tacos Chapala when your in Long Beach, California!

To be fair I Really have only ever come here on Tuesday for, yep, you guessed it; Taco's. But I think this this will be my last trip. All tacos used to be $1.25, which is a reasonable price for street tacos with some flavor. For some unknown reason, carne asada tacos are now $2, while chicken and pork tacos are $1.25. I ordered 5 tacos not knowing about the price change, and that was $10, when it used to be 1/3 of that price. Then a med size Horchata for $1.90. Voila $13. When the whole lunch should've been less than $10. On top of all this change, carne asada was dry and lacked the flavor it used to have. The flour tacos themselves were a bit hard, but the only saving Grace the amount of food given, and the salsa is great and they come with sauteed onion's and Serrano peppers, upon request. However, great salsas and sauteed onion's and Serrano's aren't going to be enough to bring me back to Taco's Chapala. The tacos used to be amazing. Now there's no ama- or - zing.
