    Birria Tacos

    My favorite downriver Mexican restaurant! I've been hooked every since their one year anniversary. I love tacos, not just any tacos but good ones and they have it. My favorite days are Taco Tuesday and Birria Friday. I've had their famous tamales and they are good as well. Consistency is important to a foodie like me and I always get great service and a full stomach. The restaurant is always clean and the staff is very friendly. Service is pretty fast for the most part and the food tastes very fresh. I've brought 5+ tacos and didn't get to them 30 mins later, they still were hotter than average and held up nicely. They make sure their food is served properly to go, so if you do have a long ride home it won't be a soggy mess. To me the Birria Tacos derserve their own paragraph. Don't let the price scare you away, they are packed to the max! I appreciate Maria's for filling their tacos with taco meat and not a ton of lettuce. Maybe 80% or more of meat instead of the usual half teaspoon is nice. My kiddos can appreciate that! The Birria is flavorful, tender and addicting. I often buy enough to share and still have leftovers.

    Everything. Prices are astronomical high. Waited 45 min to see a waitress for water. Never will return.

    Food is still really great, just in a bigger location…read more Been here two Sundays in a row for food. Their chicken is still mouthwatering. I tried their bbq ribs which I have never had before and they were amazing. They had a great char on them. Their tacos are still very good. I enjoy their carnitas meat. They don't give you the side of onions on your plate which is t a bad thing, but something I prefer.

    Just made my first trip to Taqueria El Rey, and it will not be my last…read more Dear God. The smell of the grilled chicken is heavenly, but I had a mission, and that mission was tacos. I'll have to come back for the chicken. Also Botanas. They are on the menu, and while I may have some deep reservations about this unique Detroit-Mexicantown dish, I'm going to have to return to try those too. But let's get to the tacos. I love that they are on small, doubled, corn tortillas. I love that they are only $3 a pop (less during Taco Tuesday). I love that they have some very traditional fillings. I love that they come with radishes and plenty of limes. After reading through some of the reviews I was compelled to try the following fillings, which are below in ascending order of their deliciousness: - Carne Asada: It's fine, but I wouldn't get it again. - Cabeza: Tender and flavorful, but oddly dry for a typically rich filling. - Carnitas: Juicy, tender, and delicious! A winner. Among the best I've had in the region. - Al Pastor: Yes! Finally! So far, the only good version I've found of this classic here in the area. I'd say it's a must order. Oddly, what dragged these tacos down for me was the choice of the corn tortillas. They were a bit too stiff, and their flavor was so pronounced that the shells overwhelmed the fillings. Typically in this type of situation, one can simply remove one of the two tortillas and just eat them gingerly to avoid the potential failure of the taco's structural integrity. However, my tortillas somehow fused together which made the operation impossible. What does that mean? Well, in future visits I am going to be looking for other ways to make the carnitas and al pastor shine! Maybe it's in a quesadilla. Perhaps a torta? Or could it even be atop a plate of Botanas? The mind boggles. But I'm looking forward to the journey and giving El Rey that fifth star when I find it. Oh, one last thing. The horchata is tooth achingly sweet. Next time I'll try another aqua fresca in the hopes it might be better.
