El Rey offers a lively atmosphere with excellent music, making it a great spot for those seeking a bar experience. The menu features gluten-free taco options, including the delicious birria and al pastor tacos, priced reasonably at $4 each. Nachos and chips and queso are also popular choices, although some chips can be soggy. Mezcal drinks are a highlight, with the flexibility to replace tequila. While service can be slow, the food is worth a return visit. El Rey is a great option for those seeking a fun, casual dining experience.
