The service is always so friendly too and the food is delicious!! Just a heads up the "service" aka (Tip) is already included on the bill always. ”

“ Food was Delish. King of taco never disappoints. Food is yum yum and the margaritas are a must :) ”
“ Went to the King of Taco, and did not order any tacos. Ordered pozole verde which was the perfect steaming hot bowl of zesty flavorful soup that came accompanied with a plate of 2 fresh tostadas on the side for a windy rainy day. Staff is friendly, quick and efficient. Will be back! (maybe next time I'll order some tacos..) ”
“ Was really craving tacos for dinner one night and wanted to try out a new spot. Came across "The King of Taco" and the name spoke for itself. Ordered 3 tacos and a side order of rice for pick up, 2 steak and 1 carnitas. It was ready in 10 minutes. Once I walked in, the hostess gave me my order. The restaurant itself was so packed for a Thursday! The ambiance was nice, decor really stood out and the place itself looked very spacious. My tacos were pretty good! I ended up enjoying the carnita taco more, the steak was a little dry but the guacamole sauce was delicious! The rice portion for a small was huge! The veggies in it were a nice compliment. Overall, good decision for dinner and will be back to dine in person! ”
“ So good- the Fajitas came out hot and fresh- and while they accidentally added cheese onto my rice and beans, they were more than happy to exchange it for me. It's a medium size restaurant, with amazing food and service. The lighting can get a bit dim at night, but it's more for the ambience. My table mostly ordered fajitas - a testament to how good it was! Overall, love the food. I would love to go back just for the tacos in the future. I 10000% recommend the fajitas! ”
“ Great street tacos and variety of meats besides the usual steak and chicken. They had lengua (beef tongue), fish, tripe, and birrea (goat) I had the Tacos El Rey which was 4 tacos with choices of two meats. I did the tongue and chicken. Delicious. ”
“ The carnitas are delicious here. Made in a style of larger pieces, there is plenty of crispy, fatty, and meaty to go around. Every but is tasty! The gorditas were not like I'm used to from south Texas, more like two fried gordita shells used as burger buns, but the result was still very good. The shrimp tacos and tortillas were also good. Michelada was like a 6/10, not enough Clamato for me personally, and some sips just shot a bunch of large pepper flakes into my mouth, but pretty good anyways. The server speak English and Spanish, and they had multiple TVs with the EU football game on. Worth a stop, dare I say worth a trip for even. ”
