It’s definitely a hole in the wall kind of spot. There is seating, but it’s always crowded. I did enjoy the tamales, the sope, and the tacos. Good prices. Parking is a little tight. I would definitely come back.

This is great place to go if you’re ever hungry and it’s very late. My whole family went at like 12:00 am and they were still open, so we didn’t end up starving that day It did take awhile as all King Tacos do but the burrito de lengua that I got was to die for. The burritos here are definitely my to go go and I recommend it to anyone out there. The place is pretty chill and the staff is always friendly regardless of how late it was. I was more impressed by the staff’s energy than finding out that the place closed at 3:00 a.m.

Maybe it’s cause it was near closing time, but the food was terrible. The chicken had a lot of large chunks of bristle and fat. This is the first time I got King Taco food this bad. The other locations were good but not this one.

I was in East LA for the weekend because I needed a cheaper Airbnb with a parking space since I drove down for a friend’s wedding. I heard East LA tacos are good, so I knew I couldn’t leave without getting tacos in East LA! I saw it as a good sign that there was a diverse crowd of customers that go to this spot – abuelas, teenagers, Black and People of Color, and people who identify as LGBTQ+

The food was mid, I was really hungry because I didn’t get breakfast that morning, and this was the closest restaurant I could find on such short notice. There were a ton of parking spaces, and I realized when I got out of the car, the rank smell of piss. It was horrible. I still went inside the restaurant, however. I will point out that the place was clean, and the service was good, but the food was not to my liking, I got an asada burrito with everything and an Agua Fresca, (hibiscus) When I took the first bite of the burrito, I realized the asada was burnt. Mom got three asada tacos, and they were burnt too, just not as much as mine. Dad got a cabeza burrito, and the taste was alright. The Agua Fresca was watered down a lot, and the masa for the sopes was hard to bite into. Overall, I won’t come back here. It took away my hunger, but I feel like it was wasted money on my part. Especially since I like to spend money on good food. My advice to the reader is not to order from here.

Classic Los Angeles Mexican food chain! With this East LA spot you can’t go wrong with carne asada, they prepare it just like I would at home. Cafeteria style interior with plenty of space to indoors and outdoors for the whole family.

Ridiculous that you have to pay for additional salsas, not the place to enjoy a good meal with limited condiments. Better go to El Gavilan or street tacos you get unlimited salsas, jalapeños and more at no extra cost.
