Customer Reviews
King Taco always hits the spot. The meat is super tasty and tender, and the salsas are on point every time. I love coming here because they’ve got such a good variety of meats to choose from, so it never gets boring. Don’t skip the tamales, they’re legit worth trying.
King Taco in Pasadena is a local staple for a reason! It’s the perfect spot when you’re looking for authentic flavors and a convenient location. I find myself coming back here again and again for their consistent taste. If you’re looking for a casual, delicious meal with your family, I highly recommend it!
I live in the Bay Area, but anytime I’m in Los Angeles, King Taco is one of the first places I hit. It’s one of those spots I actively look forward to, and it never disappoints. This time I kept it classic: one carne asada taco, one al pastor taco, and a carne asada burrito. Everything was solid. The carne asada had great flavor and was cooked just right—juicy, not dry. The al pastor had that slight sweetness and depth that keeps you coming back for another bite. The burrito was simple, packed, and exactly what a carne asada burrito should be. The chili (salsa) really ties it all together—flavorful with a real kick. Spicy enough to let you know it’s there, but not overpowering. It’s the kind of salsa that makes you slow down and enjoy the food. King Taco doesn’t try to be fancy, the res
This place is definitely Top 3 King Taco spots of all time. I come here all the time, they are not stingy with the sauce. Service is always excellent, and it's down the street from my house. Yes the place is also always very clean, organized, and staff members are always friendly. Thank you for the great service!
I noticed this location and decided to come inside it was empty. I made my order and waited, after me there was a Hispanic gentlemen that arrived and only ordered one some, which caught my eye, I was interested why would anyone just come in to get 1 some, and i was thinking is the food bad or something. The guy was wearing all black attire and seemed not interested in talking or anything. I then was called up with my number and received the food. As soon as I took bites of the burrito, the bite was very inconsistent. The meat felt chewy, so much that it was not a sturdy and confident bite, it was as if your eating cartilage. The tacos were the same my family member mentioned. This restaurant is in a prime location but what i noticed that it was marinated but it still lacked the wow fac
