Almost gave up on take out burritos when they skyrocketed to $15. You have to try this place, amazing food. Good flavor.

Stopped in here for a lunch meal with my family and got the huarache with chicken. All together got a huarache with birria de rez and a bacon burrito. We all agreed they were amazing and the value is great. Such a huge quantity. Mine was $13!

Tried this place several times and the food has been great so far. Their online ordering system is quick and easy however there seems to be discrepancies with the food orders as something is always off whenever I get my items. Huarache with birria- I've never had something like this before and I love it. It is like a flatbread but better. The corn masa is fragrant and tasty. It goes very well with the lettuce and meat on top. Enchiladas - the rolls are smaller than what I expected but overall still good. The online ordering is confusing because I thought I was ordering pork and beef but ended up getting a pork, beef and chicken enchilada. Taquitos- again, discrepancy with the online system. It is a plate with supposedly 5 taquitos. When I placed the order for chicken, I got 5 taquitos. When I placed the order for beef, there was only 3. The taquitos are great and I really like the rice and beans it comes with but was very disappointed to have received 3 instead of 5 when I ordered the beef. Chilaquiles- AVOID. this is not edible at all. The tortilla chips they used were super stale and not fried at all. After putting the meat on top, it became a pile of mush. I was eating oatmeal texture tortilla chips and it was disgusting.

Really nice place to grab some Mexican food and agua frescas! The workers were really nice, great salsa bar! The chipotle sauce was amazing! The red/roja sauce is very mild though. Ordered a carne asada huarache, tacos, and a Al pastor quesadilla (came with beans and rice). Out of the three the quesadilla was my favorite, good flavor, meaty, and delicious with the chipotle sauce. The tacos were just okay, definitely not the best I've had, basic street tacos. I'm mixed on the hurauche, which is like a Mexican flat bread. The carne asada was really dry and the beans were dry as well... after throwing it in the microwave it was delicious!

We've been coming here for about 6 months when we crave a good burrito and don't want to spend an arm and a leg to get it. I found this place on Yelp back then. The food is good. Portions are really satisfying! We always get the wet carne asada burrito, huarache, veggie or chicken burrito, and also recently tried the Mar y Tierra burrito. I was wondering why the Mar y Tierra was almost $18 and that kept me from trying it, but today I was just craving it. And WOW. It was unexpectedly huge! They had to put it in a box to take it to go! Overall, for the price and portion of the food, this place is doing well. The workers are friendly. We've never eaten inside because it's a small place; we always take to go.

The portion size here is huge!!! Service was also fantastic, our cashier was so nice. Quaint restaurant but plenty of tables and seating. The salsa bar was also super clean. They have a peanut based salsa which was interesting! California burrito - huge! Enough to feed 2 people. Next time I'm going to request no beans and rice in my California burrito. Typically fries and carne asada is sufficient in a California burrito, adding the rice and beans threw off the taste in my opinion.

Absolutely delicious. We have seen King Huarache multiple times when we go to Costco across the street and finally had a chance to try them. Staff was very friendly when we first walked in. They have a kiosk so that you can order the food yourself. They have a variety of items on their menu but we really wanted to try one of their machetes or huaraches. We ended up deciding on a machete this time, and all I can say is that we were not disappointed at all. It was quite a bit of food, especially if you're eating alone. The machete comes with a side of rice and your choice of pinto or black beans. We chose the pollo machete and it was delicious. Make sure to grab some of their fresh salsas too. They make all their agua frescas fresh and their licuados as well. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area

2nd time ordering here for pick up since it's close to our house but didn't get to take photos before. My husband got the same burrito while i had the fish plate. Tonight was a menudo kind of night so we shared that which was super flavorful and the tripe was very tender - the best i've had so far. I was intrigued what a Huaraches was so i got that with black beans, green salsa and Cabeza as the protein. I must say it was very tasty! It's like a flatbread - meat was tender and i enjoyed the crunch of the lettuce. I did the combo so i chose corn and Jamica Aguas Frescas also refreshing and made nicely. I didn't see the inside, i just waited in the truck but the complex has plenty of parking. My husband said the owner was friendly and very nice. Also, they sell tacos in any kind of protein that they have, it's just not on their menu.

I first tried this place at my son's open house. It was so good. They told me they have a store front so here I am. I LOVE their salsas. It's one of the best I've ever tried. Red is my favorite. Spicy but still flavorful. We also ordered 4 tacos but my husband and I ate them before I could take pictures. The place smelled good when we walked in and felt authentic. Tacos were $2.75 each. Burrito was $9.95. They had a special going. Buy 4 tacos and get a free drink. We'll definitely be back.
