King Taco lives up to its name and their tacos are amazing. Personally, my favorite item is their sope. King Taco has a variety of meats to suit anyone's palate and has great salsa to accompany all orders. My number 1 Mexican restaurant.

There are a ton of fast food - type Mexican restaurants, but no one offers carne asada as flavorful as theirs. Their carne asada had a hint of lemon and spices. Normally I order an all beef burrito or a carne asada quesadilla. I'm not a huge fan of their nachos though, they use that fake nacho cheese.

BEST beef tacos ever! their burritos are AWESOME as well! Their spicy red hot sauce is HOT in a good way if you like it spicy!

Good carne asada. I had a tostada with carne asada, onions, cilantro, and lettuce. Since I've been only eating a paleo diet lately, I didn't eat the fried tortilla, so all I can really review is the beef. It was a little bit too oily, but it had a nice lime flavor. Cheap, my food was only $5.

The restaurant we wanted to try in Pasadena was closed and we just happened to see King Taco nearby so we decided to give it try. There was a long line and I've heard from one of my co-workers that this place was good so I had a high expectation.
I tired beef taco and beef sopes. They were good and cheep but not sure if they were that good that I would drive 15 minutes from Glendale to Pasadena for lunch.

Can't go wrong with King Taco; the food is good and you can't beat the price, although the line gets fairly long at peak times. The portions are on the small side, so order a lot (which is fine since their prices won't break the bank). I try something new each time and haven't been disappointed yet.

Always consistently good. I typically grab a dozen tacos for the family and call it a meal. I think onions and cilantro are veggies!! They have a lot on the menu but, the tacos are outright the best.

KING TACO'S FOOD IS FAB ONLY DOWN FALL @THIS LOCATION IS 1. DURING THE WEEK ITS BUSY AS HELL AND THEY DONT TAKE PHONE ORDERS DURING LUNCH RUSH. SUGG.... TO EXPEDITE SRVS AND KEEP CUSTOMERS HAPPY TAKE ONLY LARGE ORDERS VIA PHONE AND HAVE A LINE MAYBE FOR PHONE ORDERS ONLY. 2.. MOST IMPORTANT PARKING SUCKS. DONT THINK YOU'LL RUN IN AND CATCH A QUICK TACO WITHOUT PARKING LEGALLY! PASADENA'S FINEST (JOKE) ON ALERT DURING PEAK TIMES TO WRITE THAT PARKING CITATION! SO DONT DO IT! PARKING HAS DETOURED COWORKERS AND MYSELF MANY TIMES FROM EATING THERE DUE TO THE PARKING AND LONG WAIT. SUGG..... HAVE CURB SIDE PICK UP. CHILI'S DOES IT..... HOP ON THE BAND WAGON KING TACO! EMBRACE THE NEW CENTURY!
