This place was great! Loved that they are nestled beside Medina Coffee too! I had the breakfast tacos and the pancake platter....delicious!! The prices are great and the cashier is a sweetie! Definitely come here for breakfast and lunch!

Taco Rey is my go to spot for weekend breakfast tacos! Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the Taco Cabana assortment my boss will bring in during the week for morning meetings, but this is San Antonio and standards are high; especially on a Sunday morning. Their flour and corn tortillas made in house fresh, as are the fillings. Watching everything hit that flat top knowing it will soon be ready for devouring gets the day started right. I usually go for a carne guisada w/cheese and onions on corn tortillas, and the classic bacon, egg, and cheese on flour. They have a ton more on the menu (including actual breakfast plates) but love my usual order so much I haven't tried them unfortunately, haha.

I really like this little family business. I would give it five stars because of the combination of customer service and how the food taste. Definitely worth trying. It's more of a fast food place, but has that authentic flavor. The menu is pretty huge, so you will frequent this place often to try it all.

The flavors of food are okay but the portions are tiny at least when you order to go. Might as well go to a different spot get a bigger serving. 3.50 for a carne guisada is reasonable but not when it has like 4 pieces of meat, come on. And I've tried breakfast tacos and fajitas from here and they are all the same tiny size. You are definitely not getting your money's worth. The only reason to go to this place is if you live next to it and don't want to drive further down the road.

My co-worker and I order 20+ breakfast tacos here weekly and they always come out in timely manner. The cashiers are usually pretty friendly, and you definitely get a 'dive' taco shop feel. Personally, the breakfast tacos never disappoint, but they also aren't anything life changing. Pretty limited seating, but a great place to pick up some good food or dine-in with a small group!

Will not eat here again got street tacos and they burnt the meat and it is real salty. Plus he touches your tortillas without any gloves.

Why post your hours as until 10pm and not honor that on a non holiday? I ordered food an 40 minutes ago, and then they wait 40 minutes later to say my order has been cancelled, after my family had been waiting eagerly for the dinner. Thanks Baja Taco

Great food. The breakfast tacos are always made fresh per order. The trash can taco is the best taco with all the extras.
I agree with the previous writer about the tortas al pastor; they are fantastic! The guisada and carne asada tacos are also excellent. The salsas are made fresh; I can't decide if I like the traditional red sauce, the spicy green sauce or the hot habanero sauce the most. I guess it depends on your mood. This is a mom/pop operation and we should support it during these crazy pandemic times; the restaurant is always clean, and the food has always been consistent.

Found this place by a random google search. Not a lot of reviews on yelp, so we didn't know what to expect. They served warm chips and salsa when we sat down. My friend got horchata and al pastor taco. Lots of meat and the horchata wasn't too sweet. I was "adventurous" and got a torta. The bread was FRESH and the sandwich was tasty. You pay at the counter when you leave and we saw them making fresh flour tortillas. This place isn't fancy but it hit the spot! I'd absolutely recommend it. Also, service was prompt and friendly!
Mmm yummy
