El Rayo Taqueria is a solid choice for tasty tacos and margaritas in a laid-back setting. The outdoor seating is a plus, especially on nice weather days, and the outdoor back patio is perfect for summer drinks and food. The Pescado Carne Asada tacos and pulled pork rice bowl are recommended, with the Carne Asada being a standout. The beef is praised for its yummy consistency, and the food arrives quickly. The carnitas taco is delicious, and they have an impressive tequila selection. The quesadilla is also noted as very good. While the burrito felt like it was missing something, the overall experience is enjoyable. This restaurant is fantastic for those with celiac, featuring a gluten-free fryer, making almost all options gluten-free except for the burritos and quesadillas. The margarita is awesome, and the grill is shared, but it is easy to avoid cross-contamination. El Rayo Taqueria is a great spot for a casual meal with friends before a festival.
