Stopped today to grab some lunch. They are in the gas station parking lot at Douglas and Reno (NE corner). Was a couple guys in front of me when I ordered. Fajita de pollo with a side of carrots and jalapeños. Took abt 8-10 mins. Not to bad. The fajitas are pretty darn good with great flavor and plenty of them. Comes with rice and beans. Carrots and jalapeños. Pico, sour cream and the other fixins. Peppers have a nice bite but not to where you can't taste anything after. I like hot so no issues here. After I ordered there was a steady stream of customers. They do a good business. DO NOT BLOCK the gas pumps while ordering and they only take cash. Definitely worth it.

Food is good but they occasionally forget items at this location. Twice now they forgot our rice and beans.

This place was great. Ask for a carne asada/tripa burrito. It is the best meat combo for any burrito. You can thank me later
Carne Asada street tacos were amazing! First vist, but it won't be the last..

Northwest Reno Mexican Restaurant Tour. First time here. Ordered the Flautas. Food was warm when I arrived. Cashier was prompt and quick at handling my order. The store was clean and all the employees looked to be staying busy, but it wasn't too packed in the store (just a few customers). The Flautas were good. They were basic. There wasn't anything in the seasoning or the ingredients that stuck out, but as Flautas they were tasty. Sometimes food doesn't need to be dolled up to be good, and Tacos El Rey does it well. The food looks fine and tastes fine.

Best street tacos I've ever had but my favorite dish is the shrimp fajitas.

The service is always friendly and the restaurant is always clean! I recommend the a la carte burrito with chorizo, shrimp tacos, and fish tacos! The chorizo is so flavorful and packed with authentic Mexican seasoning and the tacos are topped off with a delicious chipotle crèma. All of the food is made to order so if you're in a hurry it's helpful to order ahead:)
The quesodilla was awesome definitely
