    Sauce bottles

    Checked out Tacos El Rey for a late lunch. They're a food truck but have a warm, covered sitting area. Second location is out in Arlington. We dropped in on a late Friday afternoon (2:45pm). Food came out within five minutes. Two sauce bottles; salsa verde (nice unexpected kick) and salsa roja. - 4x Tacos - lengua ($3.25 USD), asada ($3.00 USD), birria ($3.25 USD) and chorizo ($3.00 USD). Favourite was the lengua. Chorizo was packed. Asada and birria were a touch dry. Grilled onions were nicely done - Enchiladas ($14.00 USD) - opted for adobada. Best of the meats we tried. No sauce but still flavourful. Rice was solid, beans unmemorable

    I love birria tacos, so I was sold when this place came up in my results! The quesabirria tacos themselves were delish and the consume was as expected. The beans and rice were disappointing, but that wasn't my main objective anyways. The HORCHATA though. DELISH. Probably the best horchata I've had. Enjoyed so much that I forced myself to same some for the next day's latte (which, I highly recommend!). Salsas were really good too. Nice workers, and they have a covered waiting area. They also had some seating if you wanted to eat on site.

    Absolutely delicious, flavorful, perfectly portioned food. Doesn't matter what you choose off the menu, it's all good. The service is super fast, we sat down and got up ~30 seconds later to get our order. This is a food truck but there is a covered, porched-in sitting area on site that is super insulated, so even if it's cold and rainy you'll have somewhere to sit. My only complaint is that it's 40+ minutes from where I live! So whenever I travel north, I always try to incorporate this truck for a meal on the way home--it's that good.

    Soooo good!! Authentic Mexican food!

    Authentic delicious Mexican food! Worth the drive from anywhere in western Washington. The torta was so delicious the carnitas were perfect. The burritos are on point. Being from Southern California, this is the closest I've gotten to a real authentic Mexican taco truck since being in Washington. The red and green salsa are also amazing! I would buy it if it was jarred. So worth it! Only 5 minutes from the freeway exit.

    It has been years since I've had this truck but it's still sooo good. My husband was coming back from golf and asked if I wanted something. Couldn't decide between tacos or a burrito and ended up with 2 asada and 2 lengua tacos. The asada was a bit dry but good flavor, the lengua was spot on and very tender. He got the pork wet burrito which I had a bite of and definitely getting that next time. What a delight - don't walk, run for your next great meal.

    The queso birria with consome is an excellent choice. The consome really adds to the flavor. I prefer the green sauce.

    Good prices, REAL carne asada. They make Birria Tijuana look like dog water and they're only a food truck vs a chain restaurant.

Menu…read morewise, Playa Bonita is a fairly standard Mexican restaurant with all the American favorites. The inside is colorfully decorated with music blaring, also typical. Service was fine; we didn't need much. It was late, and we didn't want to overstay their open hours thus ordering our usual dishes. Their tortilla chips come with both salsa and bean dip. That was different. The menu specified that "additional" costs more. I did request extra salsa to eat with the meal; I don't remember if I was charged. The Food: Carne Asada, $24.99 - 3.5 Stars Grilled skirt steak slices were well marinated and tender. The portion is smaller than hubby wanted. Cost is going up, and portions have been shrinking everywhere, so I can't really fault them. The grilled veggies with melted cheese were a nice touch. Camarones a la Diabla, $22.99 - 3.5 Stars The menu says HOT! This spicy dish is commonly a '3 stars' spicy for me, meaning not that hot. Their version is cooked with mushrooms and shreds of onions, the latter being a filler. This dish is normally shrimps and mushrooms only. For the cost, theirs is ok. I usually see larger shrimps and pay a higher cost. I always ask for no beans and eat the rice with salsa. We are unlikely to return unless our choices are once again limited by time of day. I decided to round down my overall rating accordingly.

The monster burrito had great flavor and the carne asada in the burrito was spot on. The five mini tacos with carne were incredibly dry. Very disappointing. If you dipped them in one of the sauces it was tolerable. We went back and ordered the churros. They were recommended on another yelp review. Holy cow, the churros and the quesadilla made the whole trip worth it. I am already planning a trip back for the warm churros.
