I had 4 corn tacos, and with the sauces being not super spicy yet so flavourful, it can appeal to everyone! It came with limes, onions, and cilantro and even some chopped radishes! It's very tasty and so worth giving a mega huge tip given the affordability! They are also considerate of those getting to go as the whole tray was wrapped in a plastic bag in the carry out bag. PLEASE support this cash-only business and give them a try. If only more parking was available, but what can you really do in this part of town? Only sub-5 rating I gave was the atmosphere, as you are subjected to the elements. (but more like 4.5/5!) I'll be back to give their chickens a try someday. Love how the grill is right there in the open so you know it's fresh! 🔥🔥🔥Best corn tacos I've had, hands-down.

Coming back from Belle Isle we stopped at the Taqueria El Rey food truck. Their smoked chicken had been our favorite before their fire. We ordered the whole chicken. The price is still reasonable and the chicken is still the best! We ate it in our car in the parking lot across from their food truck. The smoky, juicy delicousness of the chicken is just as good as their previous brick and mortar spot. We highly recommend them!

Grilled Chicken Dinner
They're back!!!
But it's now a different format as well as a different location. They're now located in a permi-truck format at 3344 Vernor Ave with picnic tables outside, so there's no inside seating. Hours are 11 am to 11 pm on Friday and Saturday and Sunday 10 am to 10 pm. Note, this location is not open Monday through Thursday. Tacos are off the chain, exactly as I remember in the dine-in restaurant. I'm unsure if they're still doing their pop up, but I'm sure it's on their Facebook page. Best Father's Day brunch ever!!!

I tried the chicken tacos, shrimp tacos and they were both deliciously seasoned and not dry at all. Their salsas are authentic and delightful! We also tried the fried chicken and it was amazing! They have the best margarita's here. First time here and won't be the last. It's hard to find a real Mexican restaurant and this is one of the best I've found in Michigan yet ! 6/24/21

I love this place! The tacos are so fresh and authentic. Every time I go, I get a margarita, tacos and the half BBQ chicken (which comes with rice and beans). The food is very affordable. You will not be disappointed. Also, this is a cash only restaurant.
