The first-ever Long Beach Taco Week, taking place from April 20-27, highlights the culinary skills of the Latino community while also supporting local businesses in this fun celebration.

Hosted by Latina-owned Dream Agency and supported by the nonprofit Long Beach Food & Beverage, the annual Long Beach Taco Week will celebrate one of everyone's favorite street foods—the taco.

Just two months before Taco Week launches, the roster is already here with Chile Verde, Taco Shore, Black Pork, Komo's Cocina, Jimmy E's Bar & Grill, La Chancla Mexican Grill, Chinitos Tacos, Cafe Sevilla, Kalaveras, Zi's Kitchen Mexican Grill, Crack, Los Compadres and many more to come.

All of the participating local restaurants, food trucks and pop-ups will offer a diverse range of tacos, from traditional recipes with house-made salsas to innovative creations featuring ingredients like pork belly, BBQ brisket, jackfruit and mushrooms. Specials are priced at $5, $10 and $15, making it accessible for everyone to enjoy their delicious food.

Enhancing the community vibe of this first-ever taco celebration, the Golden Taco Award will be given to one participant, determined by diners' votes for their top favorite choice.

If you're a restaurant owner, it’s still not too late to also participate in the taco fun. To register, click here.
