My husband and I visited for the first time, and we will definitely come back! The young lady at the register, who had braces, was very kind and welcoming, which made us feel great. The taco plate is fully loaded and I’m picky with rice but the rice was super tasty 😋 The food came out quickly, and we loved the salsa bar with so many tasty salsas!

They never miss! My family and I find ourselves coming back, sometimes multiple times a week if we can! There’s always a fresh agua fresca to try, and the food is served so fresh. Try them out! You’ll want to keep going back I promise!

Ordered again from el rey and I was not disappointed. Tacos were on point like always that asada is fire I love the way you grill the meat. It is perfect.

I tried it again only to be let down again! They don't include consome when you buy birria which is a little strange. I wanted a refund and they told me I have to wait up to 5 business days to get my money back. I run multiple businesses and I know that you can return the money immediately even if it were charged on a card. It's just a matter of the manager wanting to be in control of a situation they've already lost control of. I do not recommend this place at all!

Husband and I order from here it’s so good everything is tasty. Great portions and tons of flavor!

One of the better Mexican food places not only in or near Orangecrest but also Riverside. I recommend it highly. Good place to dine in or take out. Their salsas and guacamole are very tasty and I don't remember which one it is but one of the salsas is a good spicy hot. And don't forget the free chips!

Server dropped a to go order. What was disturbing is instead of having integrity they all were looking at each other then around then each other then put put the food in the to go box. If they do this what else are they doing that's not to code. Good food though. Might have some extra flavor from the floor

A+ [would come again / 還會再來]

· incredible value weekday specials in Riverside (taco tuesday 1.85$ for carne asada / pastor / pollo as of June 2025)

· ayce chips + salsa on the self-serve side bar

· also have my favorite grilled onions + fresh lemon with three homemade sauces

· love how you can request extra onion + cilantro for free

· delicious grilled meat but tortilla tasted average + hard

· can sign up for their reward system for big savings

tldr: take advantage of their weekday taco special for best value! /ᐠ •ヮ• マ Ⳋ
