El Rey Del Taco Truck

Was out and about on 30th Ave and 34th Street and was feeling hungry. I step outside the pharmacy on the corner and boom. There is El Rey Del Taco Truck. The two gentlemen in the truck are very friendly. Ordered a chicken taco and a steak quesadilla. The total was $14.00 The chicken taco was great. Enough chicken to make two tacos. As I stated before I was hungry and ate the taco before I could take a picture. The steak quesadilla was also good full of meat and cheese.. I only ate half and I'm full. I would take a picture but I made it into a hot mess. I just want say thank you guys you made my day and I will recommend you to all my friends. Muchas Gracias. Comida muy Rica.

Amazing taco truck! Got some food to go and ate in a nearby park. The tostadas and al pastor tacos were perfect, and the quesadilla with chicken was also super solid. Overall a great option!!

To preface this review - I am not a food truck girl. I usually prefer to dine in but an Astoria Park picnic made my friend group decide to try a truck.

I ordered a chicken quesadilla expecting a normal meal but it blew my mind how delicious it was. I personally thought $10.40 was a steal for the portion size and quality. I would definitely expect this for double the price at a restaurant.

The wait was under ten minutes and the service was friendly. My friends all enjoyed their different tacos and the truck is in a convenient place in relation to the train (one block away) and Astoria Park. I can't wait to go back with those late night cravings to try something new!

Just Hoopla. -much a do about nothing!! After all the hoopla I had heard and read about their tacos truck, I decided to pay a visit. I ordered a chicken quesadilla and coke and took it home with me

My previous experience had been at the launch of the restaurant on 31st Ave last year, 2022, but the food truck is no comparison to their restaurant. The quesadilla was flavorless, even a bit dry. This was nothing how I remember the chicken quesadilla which had been soft and full of tasty chicken, beans, and guacamole. Instead, you find you are at your standard Mexican food truck with the standard traditional Mexican dishes which include tacos, and burritos, There is just nothing to write home about.

Indeed, when I took the food home it was hardly fresh and I was actually thinking of throwing it away. Still, I finished the food on principle. No doubt I will not be back.

Ordered:
Tacos de Birria (~$15): 3 birria tacos with consome, onions, cilantro, radish, green and white sauces

Aya's take:
The price of these tacos has gone up by $3 since my last visit a few months before. I love the consome soaked in the taco shell then grilled, making it super crispy and delicious. The birria is also bursting with flavors and the toppings take it to the next level. ~$15 is a bit steep for 3 tacos, but if you're craving birria, El Rey is not a bad idea.

Food: Let's talk about flavorful and fresh. Read the reviews on yelp after a fun night and here I am having to write a review to let you know that you should definitely get you some tacos.

Service: Fast; Friendly and Authentic

Ambience: I mean it's New York; clean area..., hoping if you eat there that you keep it that way. Use the trash in the corner.

Conveniently located and open late. Yummy, greasy, and loaded tacos. I'm thankful for their fish option, as this is not always available at other trucks. Carnitas is great too.

Inaccurate pricing as depicted on the side of their own truck.
Surcharges for credit card usage.
False advertising. Huge pictures of "Birria Tacos" on the side of their truck and "Sorry, I don't have it".
Food is merely decent.
Things have definitely taken a nosedive for this truck.

This truck has by far the best Mexican food ever!

Food: absolutely delicious! Every bite is dripping with flavor! The tacos are my go to, you cannot go wrong! The quesadilla is absolutely delicious as well but gets a bit soggy, so eat it right away! The burrito is worth two meals! Not a huge fan of the bowl, but that's just because their other items are very good

Price: very reasonable and cheap!

Service: super quick, friendly people

Happened to be driving by one night and spotted this new truck that just opened on Bell Blvd, so I decided to give them a try for the first time and the tacos at this truck are by far the best tacos I've had!

I tried the al pastor tacos and they were absolutely delicious! Every single bite had so much flavor. These tacos are currently my go to tacos, and they are super affordable, the service is quick, and the employees are friendly.

Since this truck is new on Bell Blvd, they are currently only accepting cash.
