I got referred to taco El Rey by my banker in Ontario, she said this place is the bomb! So far so good a lot of Hispanics here so this must be a good hangout! Service is good so far huge menu, reasonable prices mariachi music in the background. I'm having torta à la Garcia my girlfriend's having beef enchiladas. The torta very fresh flavorful you gotta keep it in the wrap because it does fall apart because it has so much stuff in it which is Bueno. The enchiladas were OK. Come with the standard beans and rice. The enchilada looks like birra. Glad we stopped in.

I've been here numerous times and they've always had good food. I love their Sopes! They have never disappointed. Everyone working there has always been very nice and always very helpful when you need anything. I live out in Parma, but when I go into Caldwell, I like to go there.
