Looking for delicious, authentic Mexican food?!! Well look no further, this is the place... I promise. My boyfriend and I have officially added El Burrito Rey to our “list” of regular places we order from and we crave it all the time! I could eat an entire bowl of their Mexican rice it’s so good. The beef tacos with onion & cilantro are to die for and the 3 taco dinner is my go to order. Generous portions & fair prices make it even better. Give it a try I do not think you will be disappointed :)

Another taco place I never been before. I can tell you this I liked the cashier she was awesome no attitude took our order with no problem. Again I am a taco queen there is a lot of competition out here. I got 4 steak tacos just to give it a taste, but as I am sitting there I see these screens with all these different items I got confused then lol, but my order was already placed. I also got the corn cup which is always amazing. I set there in ate my food was pretty good. No complaints I will return thanks guys. !! Question ? What’s with the flaming hots on some items, now that’s just too much for me.

Their burritos and horchata are the best thing on the menu imo. Do yourself a favor and try it. I had been hunting a good Mexican spot for two years. Glad I found this gem.

I LOVE the jerk chicken tacos, they are so FYE!!!! Whoever would”ve thought or known that a Mexican/Latino place can make jerk chicken tacos BETTER than these African places and I STAND on that! I don’t even get any sauce because it’s not needed. Im hooked to the point I haven’t even tried anything else on the menu besides the Mexican corn and it’s fye too! Eventually I will try other menu items but right now I just can’t get pass them JERK CHICKEN TACOS that I eat at least 3 times a week. They NEVER disappoint!

I recently catered from here for an event and it was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. The tacos were an absolute hit with everyone! Each bite was bursting with flavor, and the variety of options ensured that there was something for every palate. The meats were perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection, and the fresh toppings and salsas added the perfect touch. Not only was the food incredible, but the service was top-notch. The team was professional, punctual, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was set up perfectly. They made the entire catering process seamless and stress-free, allowing me to focus on enjoying the event. I can't recommend this place highly enough for any catering needs. Their delicious tacos and outstanding service will undoubtedly make any occasion unforgettable!
