Love going there!
Best food in the area so so good
Carnitas is in essence grilled pork... with some seasoning. Here it's the acme of pork done well... tender and juicy in the inside but well done... slightly crisp in the outside... you like BBQ (...a lot of it ispork). You HAVE to try carnitas, here it's done like nowhere else Ive tried... and Ive tried it in many plsces both in Mexico and east n' west of the Mississippi...

Taco Rey | Mexican is highly praised for its friendly and efficient service, with staff known for being polite, fast, and positive. The restaurant offers a calm atmosphere, making it a pleasant place to dine. The food is consistently described as excellent, with many reviews highlighting the quality, flavor, and generous portion sizes. Customers particularly enjoy dishes like steak and chicken fajitas, shrimp tacos, and carnitas with jalapeños, which are praised for their taste and freshness. The refried beans and rice are also noted for their quality, standing out as more than just side dishes. Chips, salsa, and guacamole are favorites, with the salsa having a noticeable kick and a hint of lime. Desserts like flan and churros receive high marks for their flavor. Prices are reasonable, reflecting the portion sizes, though some find the portions large enough that leftovers may not be an option. The restaurant’s clean environment and welcoming vibe contribute to a positive dining experience. However, some mention that loud music can overpower the space, and portion sizes may mean no leftovers to take home. Overall, Taco Rey | Mexican is regarded as one of the best Mexican eateries in the area, especially appreciated by those passing through or looking for a satisfying meal after traveling.
