9. King Taco

King Taco is THE best place for a taco run. Despite the fact that this is almost fast food and not family home cooking, it's really good!!! I have never had a bad experience. BUT....this location needs some work in the service area and parking.Service: Having been here quite a few times, there's been more than enough times where lines are long and there's only one register open. I don't get it. There's been times when they close registers when there's long lines. It's weird. As well, the wait for the food....25-35 minutes. But I guess it hasn't hurt business, people keep coming in. Although, it's not a good way to treat your customers.... whatever though, I'm the one spending money and they are happily taking it.Parking: Parking at the PR location is TERRIBLE!!! There's only one way in and out. I didn't know this was legal but it is I guess. The set up is like an upside down"L." You go in, straight and to the left, if there's no parking, you're out of luck. Good luck trying to back out because there's a line of cars behind you who are looking for parking and will not let you back out. If you see a line of cars, it ain't worth it...go somewhere else because you are going to be trapped and really no where to go. Their parking lot and set up needs improvement....BIG TIME!!!Overall, if you have the patience and you are REALLY craving that taco, this place is perfect. Aside from the imperfections, this place is great!Thank you for your review. We really appreciate it as it will help us improve in the areas we need it most. We are definitely working on our wait time to make sure we can reduce it as much as possible while still maintaining order. As for parking... We will look into that to find a better way to help our guests in and out of our lot. Thank you! Hope to see you again soon
8. El Pollo Loco
Reviewed By IceGmz
I love Mexican food and I love authentic Mexican food even more. This little fast food place makes grilled/roasted chicken that tasted like you're eating in Mexico at one of the little smoked chicken stands on the side of the road. AMAZING. The sides are pretty good, pretty standard pinto beans, mexican rice, they also have macaroni and cheese and guacamole. Their signature dish is the chicken. They also have a variety of Salsas to choose from. The green guac salsa with chips is the best. Words can only give you an idea of how finger licking good this chicken is. Try it in a tortilla today!!

I absolutely love this place. I liked them before but now that they have healthier options including quinoa and brown rice, my affection has grown!I also love their Beach Club because they sent me a coupon for a free meal for my birthday. You also get a coupon for a free taco when you sign up.The workers are always so friendly that I always feel welcomed.Their service is fast but their food always tastes of freshness and quality.Prices are reasonable at about $10 for a meal.The restaurant is a fun place to hang out in too! They have AC as well as an outdoor patio area. I'll definitely be back soon!

6. Casa Garcia
Reviewed By Doug F
The restaurant has been around since 1978. They boast that their nachos are the best in town and they are right. In addition to plenty of meat, beans and cheese, the smother everything with aujur sauce. The rice is always cooked just right and the beans are slow cooked daily. All of the burritos are huge. You will not leave this place hungry. Be prepared to wait in line and you often have to wait for a table to open up, but it is worth it!

4. Baja Mar Taco
Reviewed By Rachel Y
I happened upon this place by sheer luck. I was starving and looking for something better than take out fast food. I'm not a big fish taco fan but this place changed my mind. The portions are very generous and the tacos aren't falling apart while you eat. I got another surprise when I went by Sunday night. They'd just closed but when I walked to the door the staff signaled to not leave, they opened for me, and I was able to order. I opted for the shrimp cocktail...O-M-G-!!! What a delicious choice (and the serving was also quite generous). I've yet to try their soups and other plates but am already salivating at the deliciousness that surely awaits. Mmm, mmm, mmm!!!

This can be a casual shorts, family type of a place, or dress up in Sunday clothes. Our service was good and we really enjoyed experiencing some traditional Mexican food with a twist. The guacamole is delicious. The tacos, so yummy, and the bacon wrapped shrimp was delicious. Be prepared to be a little adventurous, as they highlight different styles, but it is fun to try new things.

Ok so I am not a complete regular but this is definitely one of our families favorite places to come and grab a bite. I love the fact that the tacos come in hand made tortillas, outstanding! the bolillo french toast was the highlight for me, you have to give it a try. Aside from those dishes we have also tried the menudo, albondigas, micheladas (of Course) and nothing has disappointed... The only knock is that the owner is at times a bit rude but if you come here enough you realize it is just his way of being, with that being said this is definitely one of my cities hidden gems, it is tucked away in a very small shopping center behind tacos mexico ( Booooo)
