Your area is a food desert if you’re closed, so please don’t close! It was tough coming by on the bus on Tuesday and you being randomly closed that day.

I was traveling through King City for work and found myself only a few minutes nearby and wanted to check out the place.

There was a family of 3 eating right outside when I tried to open the locked doors. They insisted the restaurant was opened when I walked up to it around 7:00PM on Saturday June 7th, 2025. Signs say they close at 8:00PM. When I peered inside the windows I didn't see anyone.

The doors were locked and apparently it's closed, with the OPEN sign flashing, and with the time stating they close at 8:00PM... even the family there were surprised and said it should be opened.

I can edit this review if I ever get a chance to be back in King City.

Wow. The carnitas taco was bomb ass good !

Very good tortilla. Pork was very tender and super delicious.

Don’t let the simple decor fool you.

Me and my friend were traveling back from Santa Barbara when we suddenly got a craving for a simple bean and cheese burrito. The lady at the front was very kind but MAN were our burritos the worst we have ever had. The chips (which you have to pay extra for) tasted like saw dust and cardboard. The beans had a strange gritty taste and the cheese was that typical shredded Mexican blend you see at your average grocery store. Who puts Whole beans inside of a bean and cheese burrito. We were expecting there to be a cook making our food but right after the 16 year old was done taking our order she headed over to slop together our burritos, to then throw it in a comically large hot bag that said BBQ on it. After we tried to eat these, we were worried we might contract a virus. We still can’t get the taste out of our mouths. Unfortunately we don’t have much water in the car so we’re stuck like this. Wish us luck.

El Toro was excellent! I ordered a custom nacho salad - half the chips and add a bed of lettuce. It was better than every taco salad I've ever had.
It is in a brand new little shopping plaza with easy parking.

The Amtrak stopped in kings city for a food break and it was so nice to see a good healthy option right across the street. They were super fast and the food was delicious. Friendly staff also. Definitely recommend, it's my new go to food option for this route.

My wife and I came here for lunch and the place was empty. Order 3 tacos that came with rice and refried beans, tacos ok but the rice and the refried beans horrible no taste at all. I had a tortas it was ok, I had better. It looks like a steak sandwich instead of an asada that's usually cut up. Meat no seasoning tastes bland, the only three great things were the lime, soda and green salsa. Expensive also for those two items and drink over $30.

Wir waren auf Durchreise von Morro Bay nach Monterey und sind zufällig auf das Restaurant gestoßen. Wir hatten zwei "Super Burrito", welche echt lecker waren. Für den Abend haben wir eine Tüte Nachos und einen Becher Guacamole mitgenommen. Die Tüte mit den Nachos für 3$ war randvoll und haben echt gut geschmeckt. Besser als jegliche Sorten aus dem Supermarkt.
