“La veridad is off the beaten path. Don't waste your time with commercial chains. Be sure to Visit the authentic historic district of King City. Many restaurants to choose from, but this corner location was perfect. Busy, which is a good sign, but Swift friendly service and preparation for us eating quickly. The burritos were fresh. The carnitas, the El pastor were delicious. A bunch of sliced carrot rounds served with lemons straight off a tree gave the meal sunshine and a bite to bring it all together. You're traveling on highway 101 at 70+mph. Take a deserved break eat well, support local business, then you can get back on the road. But definitely visit La Potranca.”
“My husband ordered the chorizo scramble. I had the pork verde omelet they both were EXCELLENT. The homemade salsa and tortillas was a nice surprise. The food came out fast. Our server did an awesome job. On the road again??”
“Wow I can’t believe I’ve been driving past this place for so long. It is SO good I got the fish burrito and the chips and guacamole. Everything was fresh and had its own special twist. All you need is ceviche to go with it!”
“The people there are awesome they treat you like at home . They welcome all the time with politeness best food.Parking: Bout close to a hundred.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: All the time”
“We stopped to charger our electric car and we didn't wait on the car so we came to the cork & lough was worth it. Luke was our guy, and he was so awesome. The salads feel really organic, and I can tell they are working with local farmers. It's completely worth the stop.”
“Really lovely ambience and it was a nicely decorated restaurant. Great prices for the food quality and taste. They also served us some chips and salsa. Highly recommended place for a quick stop for lunch.”
“Amazing food and worth the stop in Gonzales when traveling down the road. Fresh made tortillas off the charts. We got one order of quesobirria $20 and it was huge with 4 tacos. We actually made two meals out of it. The cheesey meat filled tortillas and the dipping sauce was the best Ive ever had. There were several other offerings on the menu like the stuffed baked potato that I'm looking forward to trying.”
“Best Sushi in King City! Although the only place that sells sushi, their interpretation is very Mexican. Only seafood they have is shrimp but the uniqueness of including steak and chicken with the familiarity of cucumber, seaweed paper, and dipping sauces really hit the spot. Classic Mexican dishes including what they’re known for: Huaraches are tasty. They also make a fresh Mango Margarita and strong drinks.Parking: Couple spots in the front but downtown has a lot of street parking too.”
“I love coming to El Lugarcito. Whenever I’m passing through King City it’s a must stop. I LOVE how it’s a family run business. I saw a review about a baby in the restaurant, yes he’s the next generation. I remember fondly growing up local restaurants playing with the owner’s kids. The food, INCREDIBLE. My favorite are the carne asada plate, Diablo shrimp, and garlic shrimp. And it is FAST. Like wow is it fast. Great service, love the food, it feels like family.”
“Worth getting off the 101! Traveling back to San Jose we stopped in King City and found this restaurant. First, the service was great. The young man behind the counter patiently answered our questions and willing offered recommendations. The food was amazing and prepared fresh. They also had real Coke with sugar not HFC. Well worth the stop.”
“Best carnitas ever from a restaurant. Crispy, juicy, not large pieces, not excessively fatty. Very tastyNice peopleKid-friendliness: High chairs for babies.Parking: Don't let the shopping center setting dissuade you.”
“The lady who runs this place makes the sopes BY HAND - they are SO good.The horchata and garlic shrimp, camarones de ajo, the greens and cheese, everything was fresh and delicious.”
“Actually I was looking for some stuff for my car I founded at Salinas, Ca . This happened on September 3 2023.We drove since Los Angeles, Ca. We saw some beautiful places all the way long, we stopped at King City, Ca . We decided to eat at El Sinaloense Restaurant , It was crowded and you know where there a lot a people food is good. I ordered cheese Chile relleno and a chicken hard taco with rice and beans flavor was good my cousin ordered Carne asada plate he said was good too. Very good experience so far. Time to go to Salinas, Ca to pick up my car stuff.”
“The pizza tasted great, but paying a little over $30 for a "large" pizza wasn't? I don't think it was $30 great. But when you're road tripping with the whole family and want something easy that everyone will love can't go wrong with pizza! Friendly staff.”
“Ed's brunch burger was the best I've had. Garlic fries were addicting. Colleagues had chicken fried steak and an omelette - both raved about how good it was. Fresh brewed iced tea was a great pairing! I will definitely be returning whenever I pass by.”
