Tacos El Rey 2 3336 Arapahoe Road, Erie, CO 80516

"Apparently their breakfast burritos contain no meat (not even if you pay for it). Perfect for vegetarians. This review is based on an experience from two separate visits. Visit #1 As I recall this visit took place around 8:00 in the morning. When I entered there were 10 or 12 people standing around waiting for their orders. I stood at the counter waiting for someone to serve me for a few minutesbefore someone finally took my order, no "good morning", no polite smile, everyone working looked totally miserable. After ordering I sit there for about 17 minutes (I remember because I was watching a video on YouTube and the time code said 17:33 seconds when they handed me my order) before they handed me my breakfast burrito. I remember it was weird because half the guys waiting for their food before me were still there when I left. The first thing I noticed when eating the bacon breakfast burrito I ordered was the prominence of huge potato cubes and barely any eggs. The second thing I noticed was that this bacon breakfast burrito didn't actually have any bacon in it. The chili was also kind of flavorless, all heat and no zest. Bizarre experience, lackluster service/atmosphere, and mediocre breakfast burritos with no meat. Visit #2: After about 6 months I decided to give them another chance, maybe they were just having a bad day the first time after all? On this visit I entered at 7:23 a.m. well after their 7:00 a.m. opening time. There was no one in the counter and no one came to serve me. So after 7 Minutes of waiting around I just left. Maybe they're better for lunch, but if you want burritos for breakfast, specifically bacon burritos, and if you want those burritos to have bacon in them, I could not recommend this place."

"Fantastic food and service. We came in around 6:40 and the guys quickly brought out order to our table. My boys had pork and steak tacos. I had the smothered burrito. Along with Mexican Coke. The salsa bar was great each with a good kick!"

"Was really excited to try this place after reading really good reviews but I am feeling pretty disappointed in the food I got. I received chicken street tacos with no cilantro and they had no green sauce for the tacos. Wasn’t terrible food but not worth the $20 I spent after tipping them. Probably won’t be back. So I half way appreciate the response to my review sort of but it’s laughable because why would I be mad about getting tacos with no cilantro if I ordered them with no cilantro? I just ordered regular street tacos. I never once said anything about not wanting cilantro. I expect to get all 3 of the ingredients on the tacos. I didn’t order them that way I ordered them from your cashier in person and either they messed up or your cooks did and forgot 1 of 3 ingredients. It’s okay tacos ay ay is much better!"

"Good flavor for a reasonable price. The smothered burrito was excellent with flavor. The food isn't spicy, so it should be palatable for a larger audience. There was no need to add salsa or hot sauce as flavor improvement. Soda prices are also very reasonable in a time when restaurants are charging over $3. The tacos are quite tasty as well. They certainly aren't large or overstuffed with non meat items, but they are full of flavorful meat. And 3 tacos and a drink for under $10 is a great lunch."

"Absolutely the best Mexican food I've ever had in Colorado. I grew up in Tucson AZ, and for a few months I've been craving the stuff I grew up on. For what you pay the portions are huge!!! I only ordered one and it was enough for both my fiance and I. The taste is amazing and authentic and flavorful. They know what they are doing her!"
