    A Something Burrito...
    Jeff B.

    Dang... This would be the first less than stellar Mex experience I've had in ML in decades. Had an early dinner with my fellas, and it was as memorable as eating Mex in Northern Manitoba. However, I will say that our hostess/server, was a joy in friendliness, and made us gringo gorillas feel welcomed and cared for. She was also an absolute smoke-show of my age, and my guys had to remind me that I was happily married to their momma. Regardless, my Milanesa Torta was a shoe leather sandwich, and the burritos my guys ordered were average at best, after a taste test by moi. Out of respect for our beautiful hostess, I will say no more...

    Jalisco Tacos

    I ordered the Jalisco tacos, it say that this tacos are made with steak, I thought it will be some kind of clean meat, good quality some how, but no, it was Diezmillo, this is a very cheap carne, I am not saying that is not good, just saying that the menu don't say on this specific meal that is Diezmillo, but in other meals it does. Given an advice to the restaurant, if you are going to use diezmillo on tacos at least chop the meat smaller so is not hard to chew, I took all the meat out off my tacos and sadly I end up having frijoles tacos, like they say "Para frijoles en mi Casa" Not coming back.

    Street Tacos

    Was in Moses Lake for a baseball game, and I know I can get some great Mexican food when I am in town. Wanted to try a new place and Tacos El Rey was recommended by my fellow yelpers. Man....is this place good. The place is clean and tidy, the staff was very friendly. Easy parking, but a little tight if you have big truck. My man crush and I were wanting something light before we hit the road back home - so we ordered the street tacos. For $1.89 a piece, I could have eaten 20! We ordered the carne asada and pollo, both were so fresh and flavorful. We washed them down with a couple of Dos XX. I do need to mention the salsa....a little on the watery side, but man oh man was it good. The salsa has a little heat, but it was perfect for us. I wish we had a place like this in N Idaho, so hard to find good authentic Mexican food like this.

    Tacos!

    Favorite place to eat, the hot sauce and salsa are hot and amazing! The food is always perfect, and the service has been fast, good price, friendly. Coming weekly.

    Carne Asada tacos, chips n guac and a modelo
    Peter K.

    Food was awesome, prices were low and service was friendly! Had carne asada tacos, chips and guacamole and a nice cold modelo. Nothing I would've changed and am very happy I stopped in!

    Very excited to rip into this, disappointment was soon to follow

    I really don't know how this place has such a high rating while the food is cheap it is not even edible. As usual when let down by Yelp I find most high rated reviews are by new yelpers that may or may not be fake reviews and the business is a advertiser and or offers specials on Yelp weird huh. I ordered the lunch special Carne Asada. The pleasant server quickly brought me my lunch. The. Carne Asada was some strange cut of meat that I have never seen before and I have eaten a lot of Carne Asada it was very fatty and had lots of gristle in it. I was unable to eat it as it had a weird flavor almost as the meat was bad. I am just hoping I don't get sick from that. The rice and beans were very blah but the salsa that came with the chips was very good and the service was pleasant. I did not eat my lunch but a bite of meat and some chips. I am still hungry so I have to find somewhere else to buy another lunch.

    Perfect fast service. Corn tortillas hand made. Flour are store bought. Food fresh and well prepared. Prices are reasonable.

    Hmm... Not usually a complainer, but using cheez whiz on your nacho plate? Come on. That's against the laws of God and men, I'm sure.

    wow...thank GOODNESS we recently missed the west-bound Moses Lake exit to S******ks, and found Taco…read moreEl Ray Espresso at the next exit (172)!!! It's true - the best parts of travel are found in the detours!!! It was early (6AM), we were tired, hungry and just plain crabby for all of it. We waited, in (crabby) silence, while the truck in front of us in the drive-thru took away a HUGE order of food & multiple coffees. It was a good sign indeed!!! So. Our turn. We ordered from the generous menu of items hand-made-to-order; yummy truck food with a generous splash of Mexican spice and care. I had an incredible pesto stuffed homemade bagel, and my husband had an overflowing breakfast taco. SO GOOD!!! This is NOT fast food - you may actually have to wait 4 minutes (!!!!), but OMG!!! worth every second. And wait - that's not all...BEST. COFFEE. EVER! Fabulous aroma & flavor! This was all served by the kindest human being, who cheerfully shared that she's up and at work there by 5AM, 6 days a week. Otherwise, she "sleeps in" and is there by 7AM...!!! So, to anyone looking for a destination breakfast on I-90 a stones throw from Moses Lake, we'll see you there. We salute the hard-working & generous Team Taco El Ray Espresso! You made a huge difference in our entire travel experience, and, maybe, just maybe, saved our marriage (you know, missing an exit? hungry? tired? no coffee? )

    Way too overpriced no need for a taco to be $5 this isn't a jaripeo. Just go to simply divine where…read moreyou can get the exact same drinks for $6
