About Taqueria El Rey
Taqueria El Rey is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in Detroit (48209), MI, independently run.
There is no star rating on file for Taqueria El Rey yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
It is on West Vernor Highway in Detroit. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.
