Praise be to the taco gods, as we've just learned Sonoratown, the Downtown L.A. taqueria beloved for its San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora-style flour tortillas, asada, chivichangas, and caramelos, is coming to a new location in Long Beach.
This new, southernmost Sonoratown will be located in Downtown Long Beach on 3rd Street, just a short drive down the street from Gusto Bread. According to co-owner Jennifer Feltham, people can expect the new restaurant to open within the next six months.
“The place is already set up as a restaurant so it shouldn't take us long, we’re working on all of our permits right now,” said Feltham.
Sonoratown opened in Downtown Los Angeles in 2016, soon gaining legions of fans and a coveted TACO MADNESS championship from the good, taco-loving people of this city in 2021. The business went on to spawn a Mid-City location in mid-2022.
