    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.

    This review is for the truck located on 172nd in Arlington. I've tried the tacos, burritos, and tortas over the last few months. The food is really authentic and I highly recommend the asada, lengua, and tripa meat options. The burritos have beans, rice, avocado, pickled jalapeño and lettuce . I order without lettuce...warm lettuce is no bueno. Tacos come with grilled onions, raw chopped onions and cilantro. Their green salsa is bomb! 4 star because it's hit and miss when the truck will be there and consistency is presentation is lacking at times. But otherwise, probably the best truck in Arlington/Marysville.

    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.

    Best place to go to eat six, maybe eight variety of tacos by yourself and reflect on the world's problems.

    Are street tacos your thing? Well look no further than this cute spot! This was the first spot we…read moretried after moving to the area. I tried the carne asada and pollo street tacos!! The pollo definitely hit the spot. It had so much flavor. We like to have one or two places that come in clutch for street tacos. This is our go to. Getting in can be a bit tight depending on what you are driving. They have a good sized menu and you can order through the drive through. If you want to eat them fresh once you get them, they do have a few parking spots. Feel free to order in Spanish too! Also, if you need to quench your thirst they have delicious Horchata and other Agua Frescas. These are legit street tacos so if you are starving get a handful. You won't be disappointed!

    Okay this is a small place with no dining room that I can see. Looks like drive thru only but there…read moremay be a walk up window since there is outdoor seating. I got the carne asada burrito. They handed me what looked like a rolled up newspaper wrapped in foil but it was the burrito! Filled with carne asada, rice, beans, and guacamole it was definitely filling. I'm usually not a rice and beans in a burrito guy but this one hit the spot. I ate the whole darn thing and I'm not sorry. The prices looked reasonable in a world where you can drop over $20 on a hamburger. I shall return.
