“Fish Tacos are fab!“

“Not local, coming from NYC. Wanted to stop for some Mexican food. Food was pretty decent. Big plus it’s halal. Didn’t realize there’s no seating options and it’s inside a smoke shop. So please be aware. But good food, decent price and plus supporting small business.“

“This was my first time here, and I have to say it was the best Mexican food I’ve ever had!! Highly recommend!!“

“Have never had any issues at this El Diablo, the staff is always great and the food is always good; not much more a patron can ask for. The only reason for giving four stars is due to the greed of pricing that I just observed. In no world should extra steak cost $8. Eight dollars for only about 2 ounces of meat is absolutely criminal. I understand meat prices might be a little high, but two burrito bowls should never cost $47. Time to continue making my own at home I suppose :/“

“I've had the Burritos, Tacos, and a Torta Cubana, all were excellent. I'll be back often.“

“The name changed over the years, from Tijuana Tacos to Jalapeno Grill to Kings Tacos. But quality remains same.They serve authentic Mexican food. Price is reasonable and portions are large. The atmosphere is good. But it's not crowded like earlier days.“

“Cannot even begin to explain how amazing the food is here! The staff is hand downs so sweet and welcoming! Would recommend this place to everyone!!“

“My wife and I decided to check this place out today. Turned out to be an amazing find. We tried the taco birria, asada tacos and steak burrito. The food was all around excellent. Customer service was very nice as well. What a gem for a quick authentic bite to eat. Great addition to the area.“

“Ignore the fact that we were too hungry to take pictures before we started eating, haha. The food was delicious and super cheap ($38 for these 3 plates + 2 sodas). The workers are very friendly and service was great. HIGHLY recommend the oxtail stew, the meat is super soft and juicy and just packed with flavor.“

“We found this little restaurant just passing by on the street and we’re so glad we went there! Delicious fresh-tasting food (we got some gorditas and also enchiladas). Really great flavors at great prices! The owners were very lovely and made us feel welcome. Don’t miss this place!“

Bought a Jarritos and a La Guerrense ice cream bar. 10/10 siempre. Looking forward to many more great conversations and great meals!“

“Food was awesome. Me and my family are new to town and this place is one of the best.“

“Not only is the food 100% worth it, the staff are incredibly sweet and caring. I had locked my keys in my car when picking up an order and they offered to take me to my partners job so i could grab a spare key. This is quality care and service and i cannot be more thankful for a taco truck“

“Great food... the best Mahi tacos. If you're there on a crowded night the waitstaff absolutely hustles, never a wait. The space is small, go early if you want to sit at a table on a night there is music.

Update 12/23/24... STILL love this place. I just wish it was bigger!“

“100% recomendado el caldo de res y las tortillas de mano“

“The food and atmosphere is amazing. Good music, and good food but the service is not it. It took about 10-15 minutes to even get our menus and she did not check on us once. Mind you, there were only 2 other tables. We had to find her to get the check while she was talking at the bar with her co workers. The chef is not at fault, the food was good. An“

“Best Taco Bell I’ve been to. The staff is super helpful and friendly and you can tell they get along. I usually wouldn’t leave a review but I wanted to share how good of experience I had. Naz (I asked his name) was super nice with my vegetarian order. Because I have dietary restrictions my order took longer but he was extremely patient with my order.“
