BEST taco spot, closed down but they relocated at 3749 E. Grant rd. !! Great food, good hot dogs I recommend the chipilon! Toasted hot dog bun with melted mozzarella cheese inside! Yummy

Tacos were great and the people are super nice. Love the cucumber palate cleanser too.

Had hoped for a much better experience than what we had here, but maybe our expectations were too high. We had heard rave reviews about this place and were excited to try it out. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. We ordered takeout and had to wait over 30 minutes for our order even though there was no line. The food we ordered was not complicated so I have no idea what took so long. Once we got the food, we were surprised at how small the tacos were, they were literally about the size of a sand dollar. I've never seen such miniature tacos in my life. We also did not get what we ordered, I ordered two hardshell tacos and we're given these teeny tiny soft shelled ones. I didn't realize the mistake until it was too late and we were home. The food was OK, but I would not say that it was exceptional. I wish that it had lived up to all the hype.

Food was delicious but I (and others) just waited 25 minutes for four tacos and a Caramelo. The woman next to me waited 20 minutes for a chicken quesadilla. The whole time, with an empty restaurant, we watched staff just standing around in the kitchen while 4 people waited for to go orders. To top off this experience, as my food was handed to me I was told that they didn’t have the two Sonora dogs I ordered. I have to imagine that this was a one off experience and maybe a bad day for the staff but this totally ruined it for me.

Great caramelos. If you don't know what a caramelo (or karamelo) is it's basically a quesadilla with carne asada inside and a hallmark of Sonoran Mexican food. Food was great and nice that everything comes with a side of beans, avocado, and salsas. Definitely will visit again

I've always loved karamelo king and I recently moved on Pima close to the restaurant location so I figured I'd give it a try. I ordered the carne asada burro, which is $7. I figured for it being $7 I'd be getting a regular/medium sized burrito, right? Wrong. Although the burro was great, tasted wonderfully. I was extremely disappointed with the size. It was the size of a little kids burrito. Extremely small. It was the same size of the tiny plates they give you for the cucumbers. A normal sized adult would have to eat at least 3 of them to compare to eating a normal sized burrito. I did not mention my disappointment to the cashier as I was extremely hungry. Just wanted to mention the price gouging and how I believe they could do better in size.

Gave the owners daughter a ride in a lyft and she convinced me to give this place a shot. God I wish I hadn’t waited so long to walk in the door!3 words: off the chain.Absolutely delicious. I went with the Karamelo King and let it ride, and boy what a ride that was.Savory, saucy, limey, cheesy, absolutely hit the spot as far as Mexican street food goes here in Tucson.I wholly recommend this place for the casual diner looking for something authentic as far as Mexican street food and even more so if you’re balling on a budget.You’re tastebuds will thank me.Smoke. Cook. Eat.Cheers!

The tacos were great! It's a no frills type of place, the food came out quickly, though perhaps that might be since we were the only customers there. Would definitely recommend the Lorenza tacos!

My wife and me both had the Karamelo King taco and we both loved it. Then they brought us out a Birrio Taco. Both were excellent. They hot dogs are by far the best I have had. A small dining room. It's our new goto place..thank KK!
Caramelo with shredded beef THE BEST ! Super nachos YUMMY! Sonoran hotdog so-so I felt it needed a spice kick. Did take 30mins for our order (one cook/one waitress). However, was worth the wait. Will be back to try the tortas and tacos.
