" I frequently dine at El Rey and I'm always impressed with the quality. Whether it's the tacos or the plantains, everything is on point! I appreciate that they offer unique beverages like their cantaloupe drink. Although I must say, sometimes the service could be more attentive. Overall a great experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here for a quick bite and I was happy with my meal. The flavors were good, but the service was just okay. I ordered the burrito and it was very filling. However, the wait time was longer than expected which was a little disappointing. Overall, I would say a decent experience but there's room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" The first time I tried El Rey was for lunch and I fell in love! The service was top-notch, and the tacos were divine! Super fresh and flavorful. My only complaint would be the price which seemed slightly up there, but worth it for the quality. I’ll be returning for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit El Rey, I enjoy the food! The service has been neat and welcoming, and I appreciate how there are multiple options on the menu. There’s something for everyone. I often get the Cuban tacos, and they have a distinctive taste that pairs well with their homemade hot sauces! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve visited El Rey several times and recommend it highly! The atmosphere always feels lively and inviting. The food is consistently yummy, and they offer many flavorful options. It’s the perfect place to grab a casual bite with friends after a long week. Check it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been to this restaurant several times and had some good experiences. However, my last visit was disappointing as the chicken in my burrito was raw. I promptly reported it and they were apologetic, but that only made an impact on my decision to return. I just hope they pay more attention to the food quality moving forward. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely evening we had at El Rey! The staff was accommodating and the ambiance was festive! We ordered a variety of dishes including tacos, burritos, and the ceviche. Every plate was well-prepared and seasoned perfectly. It’s hard to find culinary gems like this one that combine the best of Mexican and Cuban flavors. Highly recommend this restaurant!
