Went to this location on 9/16. Normally when you go to a King Taco you expect a wait time to get your food. It's a given however very unnecessary. But this location is by far the worst. A simple order of two burritos and a quesadilla took 1 hour assemble and serve. While speaking to others that arrived before me said they were waiting well over an hour for food that can clearly be assembled on the spot like any street taqueria. I say this because they got my order wrong and were able to assemble a new burrito on the spot in less than a minute. It just doesn't make sense as to why the long lines. The meat is already precooked! I wouldn't recommend this chain as you can find better and quicker taco spots in LA with better price points. read more

They completely forgot to make my order. After an hour of waiting and my order getting skipped I finally ask for my order and they tell me there is no more pastor and I now have to wait another 15 min Transition: ordene mi comida a las 1am y me dieron me orden una hora despues a las 2:08 am Y se les olvido mi orden asi que no pusieron al pastor y tuve que esperar otros 15 minutos. Se pasan read more

King Taco - It is 2:08 am the next day - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, California

The worst dammm king taco I've ever gone to in my entire life!! The workers here are very incompetent and do not care about paying customers. First the guard they have is constantly trying to intimidate the customers by looking at them in a very aggressive manner but I guess that's much needed when people are waiting over an hour for some simple tacos. Don't get fooled if you see a short line at the register this place is extremely huge and has a bunch of people waiting for their orders. Biggest mistake we ever made!! Although we did witness a Sheriff come in and order food and that order was prioritized so maybe next time I will just walk in dressed as a police officer so my order will take 5 minutes instead of an hour and 5 minutes. P.S. this location has no type of vibe at all! At least play some good jams to keep people distracted by the long wait. read more

King Taco - The perfect example of someone looking for an altercation from these walking hungry zombies - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, California

WORST SERVICE EVER! Ordered 3 Jamaicas and I was only given 2, went up to ask for our other drink and all I got was attitude. She gave us an horchata instead of the Jamaica and made it seem like it was our fault. Rude!!! While my aunt was taking a bite of her taco a hair was on it, my mom went up to let them know and they questioned if we had put the hair in the taco. Ewwwww!!! First and and last time at a king taco ever. read more

Went to king taco and the cashier was very unprofessional with actitud and messed up my order I said no beans and got beans instead of rice

Bomb bomb bomb There's always a long line but the food is fast and the service is good. The parking lot is a decent size but it gets packed, I had to park on the side but still it was close so it's coo. The restrooms we're pretty clean compared to other king tacos, so that was a plus. read more

This place isn't the same anymore... 20 minutes to order (only one cashier at 3pm on a Sunday) and another 30 minutes to get our food. To top it off, the tacos were cold. King Taco is overrated. Will make the trek to East LA next time. read more

The service in this location is horrible, they took over 40 minutes just to give me 6 tacos and a drink. Then i ask what was wrong with my order and they still took other 10 minutes to have it ready. I don't get how they're still on business. I wish i can give zero stars. read more

Looks like all the King Tacos have the same problem. Not enough cashiers and always big lines. Not sure if it has to do with not coordinating employee working hours to cover for busy hours but always same issue. Most of the time I just pop in to see the line but end up leaving to a different place. I like their food but their service is terrible. read more

A friend recommended the wet green asada burrito and my goodness... it's the best I've ever had

This King Taco location has the most options on its menu, which makes it so unique. From those amazing tortas to the new carne asada dish. Down side is, the wait time. You will always be waiting at least 30 plus minutes on a good day. Weekend crave? Forget about it! Plan ahead when coming here. Definitely recommended for good food though. This location offers online ordering. Consider that before coming here. read more

This certain location is home of the wet burrito and I can't get enough, they also serve menudo and chicken soup on top of the usual menu, which is amazing! Carne asada is juicy and has good flavor, burritos are a good size and their green sauce has just the perfect amount of acidity and goes very well with the dish. I absolutely loves tamales so I always get the chicken Or pork and it wasn't dry at all, very moist and delicious. If only this was closer to home read more

King Taco - Long ass like - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, California

What's the point of taking phone orders if they start making it once you get there? Accepting phone orders is misleading to people that are in a hurry. Wait time is ridiculous. You would think that with the volume of customers they get they will have more than 2 cooks preparing food. Food is good but service has been deteriorating the past few years. read more

Gotta wait 30 minutes to order and another 30 to get the food. Not an exaggeration lol pretty ridiculous

King Taco is one of those places that always hits the spot. This location is great, always clean and the staff is friendly. I almost always get the asada tacos. The meat it always flavorful and juicy. The red sauce is spicy and SO DELICIOUS. I've gotten the sauce just to keep at home since I don't live around a King Taco. Definitely good for late night eats as well. Yum! read more

I've been coming here for years! Service has gone down hill as well as the food quality. Today, I made my online order which I've done before. You have to wait for a text when your order is ready, I waited 22 min past the due time the email said my food would be ready. When I called they said I could go in that the food was ready, once my husband went in and got the food they text me that it was ready. They tried to say I had given the wrong phone information and that's why my food was sitting there for 20 something minutes. Mind you I've done this more than once. At first they would be ready by the time the email said, now they just don't care! And it was not even busy. They also forgot to give us salsa which was requested on the online order. NOW the worst part is that in one of the burritos was a rock, a solid rock! They have truly lost a loyal customer. Going to have to give another location a try. read more

Gave it an extra star (was gonna give 4 stars) because they give 50% off for military if you come in uniform ... Anyways, I had the carne asada burrito. It was huge but not too huge I couldn't finish it. It was tasty, filling, and adding the salsa to it made it even better. I like this place! read more

Does not take phone orders and has no outdoor dining. Long lines. Only lets one person in at a time to order so if you come in a group only one person can go in. No phone orders, how dumb! And before you can "place an order" over the phone but they won't make the order till you come and pay for it. read more

I waited 25 minutes for my soup, and I never got it and they lied about telling me to wait 5 minutes when I was basically waiting for nothing, I refunded my money back. read more

There was a hair on my food ! When I asked a service member for the manager she didn't want to get him. And when she did notify him, he didn't come either. Very unprofessional. This place charged me $3 jus for a side of jalapeños. Next thing you know they'll charge for napkins. If they want to have such high prices they need to have excellent customer service as well. Very disappointed ! I grew up around here & this place has totally lost its touch ! Never coming back again ! read more

Got the green cheese enchiladas and a few other items like the asada wet burrito and some asada tacos. King taco has the best green salsa so whatever you get tastes amazing! I had never tried their enchiladas or their wet burritos since there aren't any other locations that serve this extended menu. Definitely recommend giving them a try. Only downfall is there is gonna be a pretty long wait time read more

The worst customer service I've ever experience in king taco , I always go to my local king taco this time I decided to try a new one and it was so bad , the lady who gave me the food was so rude threw my food and I ask for another sauce she got more mad and threw me the sauce so unprofessional like if she pays for the sauce. So greedy after spending 40$ for two people. Fucken ridiculous. Will not be coming back. read more

The food is great! Unfortunately, The manager was awful, rude, not helpful! he was unprofessional. I called to inquiere about ordering food for a small event. This had been done before, but I was talking to him, he didn't want to help! I will not be going back! read more

Before I write my review, I'm gonna add the customer service phone number because no one should have to put up with crappy customer service: (323)724-0270. My friend and I ordered two regular asada burritos. We waited for like 45 minutes for the burritos and when they finally called our number they gave us wet burritos. So we went back to the registers and the lady said we had ordered wet burritos and I kindly explained to her that it was impossible because I don't eat wet burritos and because I am lactose intolerant and I don't eat sour cream or cheese. This very rude lady then told me she could remove the cream and cheese and I told her that I would not eat something I didn't order. So then the manager comes and tells me they would make an exception and give me what I ordered, but she had the absolute worst attitude and even seemed upset to help me. I politely thanked her and told her she wouldn't have to make exceptions if her register lady would've taken our order right. They finally took my order again and we waited an extra 20 minutes for the burritos. When they finally called us up for the burritos the manager kinda threw the bag at me and didn't give me napkins or sauce. We stood at the windows for about a minute and everyone was ignoring us until this kind man gave us salsas and napkins. The cherry on top was hearing all the ladies gossiping about me as I stood there and hearing the register lady call me "dramatic" in front of all her coworkers and all the customers as I was walking away. The manager was standing right by them as they talked they talked about me and she said nothing. Absolute worse customer service I've ever had! I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Please fix your online ordering, I called to order by phone and was told I need to order online. Once that is fixed, I would gladly improve this rating since this is such great food. It used to be available by a link on Yelp, that is no longer available and it is not on your website either. read more

Food is great, their salsa stingyness not so much ! Their beverage staff is very slow.

I went to king taco today and ordered a wet burrito, and I got a Regular burrito in a container. I paid for the wet burrito. I called to let them know, and the person on the phone said "Well what do You want me to do?" Are you kidding me?!?! King Taco has no Etiquette!!! They need better customer service. So disappointing.i even asked for extra green Sauce on the side I was told they can't give me more . Only two per order . .I order 3 tacos asada 2 taco al pastor and 2 Quesadilla . . read more

If I could do negative stars I would, not only did my family and I wait over an hour for food since they kept skipping our number . But when we received our food it was cold , I had told them to remake it since after waiting you don't expect cold food. The last part that will make me never go to a king taco is the fact there was rats , we didn't realize it until we were done eating. read more

Where do I even begin...this King Taco has to be the worst establishment out of all the ones i've ever been too and trust me i've been to most locations. The customer service is absolutely ATROCIOUS!! The women who was taking my order had no clue what i was even saying i might as well have been an alien from outer space by the look of confusion on her face. I asked for cabbage inside my burrito and offered to pay extra for the added feature to my food but she refused and said that task was IMPOSSIBLE!!! i was completely stunned i even offered to pay for any extra food material needed to complete my desired burrito. She then proceeded to take my order and ERASED my highly requested cabbage added burrito. So we had to repeat the process all over. This interaction took most of my lunch time causing me to be late. I have never in all my life have experienced a restaurant where they cannot accommodate a customer correctly. Their menu does not state no substitutions. The lady taking my order was not well qualified for the position of cashier. Maybe King Taco needs to reevaluate their hiring process because this seems to be a common issue at this location. read more

I love King Taco! Now the only reasons why I'm giving it 3 stars instead of 5 are due to the following: 1. Their burritos. I love a good burrito and don't get me wrong, their Al Pastor is delicious BUT they tend to load your burrito with rice and beans and they lack enough meat! It's 70% rice, 20% beans and 10% meat. I have included pictures. 2. The cashiers at the drink station are so rude - no interpersonal skills whatsoever. Not a hi, not a good afternoon, buenas tardes - nothing. They grab your receipt, mark it and give you your drink. They need to be more inviting. read more

King Taco - 70% rice, 20% beans, 10% meat - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, California

I ordered the Posole, which was awesome (very meaty) with the condiments. It was so big it could easily serve two, so I had to take the rest home. Next time I'll try carne asada burritos and bean and cheese burritos. Service was fine, unfortunately I don't speak Spanish, luckily my order was simple and straightforward. This young Hispanic guy let me go ahead of him and I mentioned this was my first time trying this place. After he ordered he told me where to wait and pick up my order. They were calling out order numbers in Spanish and I told one of the servers I didn't speak Spanish and what my order number was (she just looked at me). They kept calling out numbers in Spanish. Luckily another young man waiting for his order asked me what my number was and he let me know when my number was called (in Spanish). The place was clean and pretty spacious. I came on a Sunday, in time before it picked up, so the wait wasn't too long (20-25). I will definitely come back, as the food was great. To the two young guys who helped me out, I wanted to say thank you again to them! I even tried speaking a little Spanglish, but that didn't help either... lol. read more

Been coming to this king taco for 15+ years. Just ordered a burrito and the size of this burrito is so small. I should've ordered 2 tacos and I probably would have the same size meal as I did with my burrito. Disgrace of a 11$ burrito. No mamen. Pinches miserias. Prices went up and food portions went down. read more
