Great juices, great people. Absolutely delicious. I did not expect to find something like this in a town like King City, but it was great! Definitely recommend this place to people who are tired of fast food and want something healthy instead!
Simple interior, excellent food. I got a breakfast burrito which was smaller than I expected (honestly, it was the smallest breakfast burrito I've ever gotten) but simple and delicious. I also ordered the chilequiles which was excellent and helped round out the meal (i ordered an extra egg with it so 3 instead of 2). True authentic food. I grabbed some welches fruit snacks at the front and those were good too.
The people and the food at El Taquero Deli were both very nice. They served us cool, delicious drinks on a very warm day. I'm glad we ate there. Thank you.

El Taquero Deli is one of the favorite spots in King City, considered by some to have the best Mexican food south of Santa Barbara. The food is outstanding, delicious, and amazing with good flavor. Standout items include the hand made tortillas, tacos el dorado with pollo and carne asada, crispy tacos, lettuce wrap tacos, tacos dorados de papa, and tortas ahogadas. The aguas frescas, including amazing jugo verde and other juices, are also praised. The burrito is not huge but is considered quite reasonable, especially with a drink.
The owners are described as very kind, personable, and hard-working, making supporting this small business a pleasure. The restaurant has a new location on the 300 block of Broadway, a big new place in a busy area. While the atmosphere could use a little work, orders are taken well and made pretty quick. The business is also known for catering and for having a dedicated booth at the local Wednesday night market. Customers are super happy for the owners and plan to stop by every chance they get.
