Very good. Decent prices. Would definitely recommend! Very convenient and clean to go preparation. Salsas are spicy, if you have a lower spice tolerance, so keep that in mind. Service was good. read more

We were hungry and in the area so we figured we'd try this place out since it had really good ratings. This place surpassed any expectations I could've possibly had. The lady who attended us was very nice and hospitable, she even brought our food to the table. We ordered some tacos, an agua de piña, and an horchata. The tortillas, meat, drinks, and salsas are absolutely delicious!! I love that they have a little seating area with tables, we sat down to eat there and it was such an enjoyable experience; it reminded me of eating at small establishments when I'd visit Mexico as a kid. I don't live close by, but this is a place I would definitely come back to when I'm in the area. read more

Tacos El Rey is hands down one of the best taco trucks I've ever been to around the Santa Ana area! I stopped by and got the asada and pastor tacos along with a horchata, and everything hit the spot. The asada was flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The pastor also had that amazing balance of smoky and spicy flavor that great tacos have. Both came on fresh tortillas and included toppings like orions, chili, and cilantro. The horchata was super refreshing not too sweet as well. On top of the food, the service was quick and friendly. Ambiance was also super good. Surprisingly, they also deliver the food to you if you choose to dine in instead of takeout. You can tell they take pride in what they do. It's the kind of spot that makes you excited to come back again. If you're in Santa Ana and craving authentic, flavorful tacos, Tacos El Rey is the move! read more

What a delicious experience at Tacos El Rey! Their truck is on Fairview and they have tables and chairs so you can enjoy your meal there. Huge shoutout to the owner Eli for being so sweet and welcoming! And of course a shoutout to the chef for creating such tasty food. Our entire family enjoyed our meals tonight! We ordered Al pastor, asada and tacos de cabeza. Omg all of their meats are delicious and I honestly didn't expect it. It was a delightful experience. All of their salsas are delicious and they serve you fresh cucumbers and grilled onions as well. MUST try this spot! I will definitely, most certainly be back to get some tacos de al pastor and make sure to request some pineapple! This time I ordered an asada huarache. 10/10!!! Their drinks are also AMAZINGLY delicious! Their horchata 20/10 read more

I'm totally surprised this place doesn't have more reviews!! Found this truck on Yelp next to my house and it was a bonus that they're open until midnight. The lady serving me was super kind too! I'm not even exaggerating when I'm saying... these are some of THE BEST TACOS i've ever had, and I've had a lot of tacos from many places. Al Pastor Tacos (5/5): Now I'm very picky when it comes to my tacos, especially al pastor. This place nailed the seasoning and texture of the meat. It was so savory, sweet, flavorful and sooo tender! The right amount of grease and the tortillas were delicious!! Not to mention that the plate also came with grilled onions, cucumbers, and a serrano pepper, which really adds to the tacos in my opinion. Seriously, you need to try their al pastor, it was BOMB! Horchata (5/5): A lot of horchatas I've had have been gritty, not well strained, or just lacking in flavor and sweetness. NOT HERE! The horchata was creamy, smooth, and had the right amount of sweetness I'm looking for!! I love that it had a cinnamon swirl to it too when I got it. It has a condensed milk taste, which I assume they used, that makes it sooo addicting. Not even being dramatic, one of the top horchatas I've had. Another man next to me raved to me about their strawberry agua fresca! They make pina, strawberry, and horchata. I'll have to get that one next time! I'm definitely coming back to try more of their items, they just got themselves a loyal customer. RUN DON'T WALK TO EAT HERE!!! read more

Tacos El Rey - Al Pastor Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Saw all the reviews for this taco truck were pretty positive but wasn't sure since there was no customers,maybe it was the rainy day or still too early 17:40.I was already there so I said why not, if food not good then I just won't go back. Glad I decided to try it cause it was worth it, this place is good. Got the asada torta and darn it I should have gotten some tacos on the side. Truck had some cumbias going on in the speakers almost made bust el paso del chavo al estilo medio metro haha . Def gonna eat here when I'm in the area. Give this taco truck a try and support small businesses. read more

I used to work night shift nearby and getting tacos from this truck was my only joy of the work day. Two biter tacos. Ratios portioned appropiately. Tender meat. Salsas are very flavorful and I get extra to take home with me. I still come here weekly even though it's out of my way now. This place will not disappoint. I've seen the same family run this truck so it makes me happy to support. read more

Tacos El Rey - Tacos Near Me - Santa Ana, California

The spot is very easy to find with ample parking. The menu is thought out perfectly and they present the prices for each item according to the meat. The area is spotless and the workers here are so friendly! I love the sticker on the cup as well! It's those little things that make me go back. Called ahead to pick up the carne asada fries and they were ready within 15 min of placing my order. Once I got there, I couldn't help but order an agua de fresa. It was so yummy! Seriously, don't skip out on the drink. Next time I will forsure be trying the horchata. The fries themselves were loaded with toppings! The carne was not particularly my favorite, so I'll be trying the carnita fries on my next visit. The salsas are definitely on the spicier side. I kept adding more and more though because the salsa is that tasty! read more

The wife and I had asada + pastor tacos, asada nachos, and horchata and mongo drinks. All 5/5. I think this is going to be our go to taco truck for a while. I love that they accept Apple Pay / card. Customer service was amazing. Seems like a family that cares about their customers and their business. Very welcoming and kind. Tacos were properly portioned with meat and fillings. A lot of places mess up the ratio. The provided grilled onions and a pepper with the tacos, which I love. The asada meat is great and very well seasoned. The pastor tacos were not the sweet/pineapple variant, but were very tasty. The tortilla was perfect too. Not dry or falling apart. Asada nachos were perfect. Not wet and soggy. The nachos they use are thick and crunchy without being hard or taking from the flavors of the other stuff. Decent ratio of cheese too. The horchata and mango water were thick and full of flavor. Not too sweet, not too rich, but just right. I would go here just to get drinks if I wasn't hungry. Really good. They also didn't just give me 90% ice either, perfect ratio. The truck is a little tucked away, so you kind of have to know where you're going. They have an outdoor eating area with two clean tables and plenty of light --if you want to eat there. We took ours to go, but could have easily just ate there. My wife and will definitely be back there soon. read more

The food was absolutely delicious! I got the Al pastor burrito and it was huge! There's a little seating area with sauces and napkins and even hand sanitizers. The staff was also incredibly friendly and accommodating for my vegetarian friend. Highly recommend for late night post-concert yummies read more

Review from a motherland Mexican: The strawberry agua fresca is enough to return for but the food ended up being really good too!!! The chorizo mulita was my favorite, it's made with the small, street-taco sized tortillas so if that's all you're getting, get more than one. I'm a crispy tortilla girl and that was crunchy perfection. I also got the asada burrito which was booommmbbb. It had a different flavor than other asada but in a great way. The staff was super friendly and food is made to order so if you don't want to wait you can order ahead through phone. I will be dreaming of the strawberry agua fresca until next time. Will return!! read more

The best tasting tacos! Every single time I come, it never disappoints. Flavor is immaculate. The salsas are delicious also! Super friendly owners and fast service. They have some seating and lights outside and sometimes play music. read more

Some of the best tacos I have had since moving to the area! The asada and pastor had amazing flavors. My favorite is definitely the lengua. Super tender and delicious. I'm always willing to spend a bit more for great lengua! Lots of different meat options so you got variety. They also offer some grilled onions too which goes great with the food. I'm not the biggest fan of cucumbers but it does add some freshness to the meal. Service was perfect and the area has a lot of parking around so it's nice. Definitely check this place out! read more

Delicious! Definitely great food! We ordered a torta de Al pastor, tacos de cabeza, tripa, and asada and all was tasty. We also ordered a huarache with asada and it was loaded with beans, meat, lettuce, onions and cilantro. The salsas are hot and so delicious. The food is served with a side of grilled onions and serranos that were spicy for eternity!! The aguas fresca are fresh and made on site. They have strawberry, horchata, and pineapple. Yum!

Randomly found this spot on a desperate attempt to get something better than Thanksgiving food and it said open so we called in case it just wasn't updated and unfortunately that was the case. However, the gentleman that answered was kind! We went the next day and were glad we did because the food was well flavored and the employees were kind. Great food, even better service so the 5 star rating is not an exaggeration. This is definitely gonna be my new go-to spot! read more

What a gem of a taco truck! Was in the area and decided to check out "El Rey." Did not disappoint. I asked what was best and of course was given a variety of options. Tripas taco 10/10 (I don't even like tripas) Asada mulita (9.5/10) don't like cheese but damn it was good Tacos al pastor on point! 8.5/10 (missing piña but I'm from DF). Sope de asada was small on the amount but plentiful with meat 9.5/10 (i love sopes so no one gets a 10 except my abuela). The owners are cool AF. They bantered with me and even had a laugh about me potentially stealing their wallet (chilangos will know). The salsa was the best Mix of Michoacán and Oaxaca deliciousness. Not the spiciest, but solid, however the flavor was incredible. Please check them out. Easy parking and great food at reasonable prices! My favorite taco truck TBH! read more
