Handmade Quesadillas Served at Tacomasa Long Beach
If you're searching for quesadillas in Long Beach, CA, Tacomasa at 4740 E 7th St, Suite 130 is your closest stop for the real thing. We're a Tijuana style taqueria, a counter service Mexican restaurant rooted in authentic street food from the border region of Baja California. Our quesadillas are not baked in an oven or assembled from pre-shredded ingredients. They're pressed on a hot griddle, folded around your chosen protein, and finished con todo - queso, cebolla, cilantro, guacamole y salsa, the traditional way.
Con todo explained: In Baja-style taqueria culture, con todo means "with everything" the full garnish spread of melted cheese, white onion (cebolla), fresh cilantro, homemade guacamole, and house salsa. Every Tacomasa quesadilla comes this way by default, except Tripa and Lengua, which are served without guacamole per regional tradition.
The seven quesadilla proteins at Tacomasa Long Beach span the classic taqueria range: grilled carne asada (steak), marinated adobada pork, nopal (grilled cactus), pollo asado (grilled chicken), tripa (beef tripe), lengua (slow-braised beef tongue), and plain queso. Whether you eat meat, or you're looking for a vegetarian Mexican food option in Long Beach, there's a quesadilla here built for you.
The Quesadilla Menu - All Seven Proteins
All quesadillas served con todo: Queso, Cebolla, Cilantro, Guacamole y Salsa.
Note: Tripa y Lengua are served without guacamole.
BeefAsadaCarne Asada Char-grilled skirt steak seasoned and cooked over open flame. One of the most ordered proteins at any Baja taqueria smoky, tender, and deeply savory. | PorkAdobadaCerdo Adobado Marinated pork rubbed with dried chiles, spices, and achiote. Related to al pastor but distinct adobada is the Baja interpretation, cooked on the comal rather than the trompo. | CactusNopalNopal / Cactus Grilled prickly pear cactus paddles, cleaned, sliced, and cooked until tender with a light char. A traditional Mexican ingredient with a mild, slightly tart flavor. Vegetarian |
ChickenPollo AsadoPollo Asado Grilled chicken marinated in citrus and spices, the go-to for those who want a lighter, leaner quesadilla without sacrificing flavor. | BeefTripaTripa de Res Beef tripe, cleaned and slow cooked until tender, then crisped on the griddle.

A Taqueria Rooted in Tijuana Street Food Tradition
Tacomasa is not a fast casual chain. It's a multi-unit taqueria built on the cooking tradition of Tijuana-style street food the style that gave the world the Caesar salad, the Baja fish taco, and the carne asada burrito before they became mainstream. Our Long Beach location brings that tradition to the East Long Beach community at 4740 E 7th St, just east of the 710 Freeway.
What makes Baja-style quesadillas different?
Traditional Tijuana taqueria quesadillas are made on a flat comal (griddle), not baked or microwaved. The tortilla gets a brief press against the heat to melt the cheese and create a slight crisp, then it's folded and finished with the full garnish spread. The result is structurally different from Tex-Mex quesadillas thinner, crispier at the fold, and more intensely flavored from the direct contact with the cooking surface.
Ingredients That Matter
Every quesadilla at Tacomasa starts with fresh tortillas, house-made salsa, and real guacamole made from California avocados not a pre-packaged spread. The cebolla (white onion) and cilantro are chopped fresh daily. The proteins asada, adobada, pollo asado, tripa, lengua are cooked to order on the griddle. This is what authentic Mexican food in Long Beach looks like when it's done right.
