Though El Rey is always overly loud and raging with bros, it is completely forgivable because the tacos and nachos are so good. Whether you eat inside, take it to go, or snag an order at their street window, no one will be left hungry. For drinks there are pitchers of margaritas and micheladas. For food, steak nachos and all the tacos are great.
