El Taco Bravo L.A

In a town where a lot of restaurants serve only lunch, we were glad to find that El Taco Bravo is open until 8 to serve a tasty, reasonably priced Mexican dinner. Mr. Cuddles got the chicken pastor plate – fresh chicken, very flavorful, with some hidden bits of pineapple. Along with the beans, rice & vegetables, it went very well on the fresh tortillas. Mrs. Cuddles got the Carne Asada plate – the beef had been waiting on the grill a while, a bit overcooked. Nonetheless, it had a good marinated flavor and a generous portion of it. The pile of fresh-grilled onions added flavor and crunch. The restaurant appeared a bit understaffed when we visited, with most tables not bussed and dishes waiting when we walked in. Only 2 people appeared to be running the whole place; still, we got immediate service and our food came out quickly. This is not the very best Mexican restaurant around, but it is a welcome addition to King City’s dinner scene.

We had been on the road since for hours with no food - so glad we found this great spot!! Service was quick food was good - worth the stop for sure!

I am from the midwest and this would be pretty good Mexican there. Great probably. But in King City it is gringo Mexican. Not bad. Good really. Just not as good as so many other random places across the southern half of California.
