El Rey del Taco — Restaurant in Myrtle Beach

Let me start off with saying I strongly dislike leaving bad reviews …Unfortunately this is a 1 star review ..walked in, seated quickly nobody here , menu was straight forward .. daughter ordered 4 tacos and food came out with hair in it .. ok stuff happens I get it … I also ordered an additional 20 shrimp tacos for my 4 other kids and me and my wife ..shrimp tacos barely had any shrimp .. the whole time somebody’s son was watching a horror film in the dining room and it was very loud ..waitress didn’t make sure we all had napkins … and when we went to the bathroom we looked at the cooking area and it looked like someone’s furnished apartment .. bathroom cleanliness was 8/10 .. only ok thing .. just really disappointed 140$ later.. sorry for this...

Definitely a hidden gem in the neighborhood. Just upset I was just driving through from NY down to FL because I would visit this place at least once a week.

Cashier who took our order was super nice and the food was incredible. Only thing missing from the pastor was a little pineapple. Don’t get me wrong though, seasoning was on point and it was delicious. But the Lengua was probably the best one I’ve had in my entire life.

The salsas were really good and if allowed, I would’ve paid for 2 quarts of green sauce to take home. The green salsa reminded me of a Peruvian and Colombian style of green salsa. Great flavor and perfect heat level.

For sure if I’m in Myrtle Beach again, I’m...

The kids behind the counter ran to get a woman who gave us a dirty look while coming out before even finding out how many people we had. She told us they didn’t have room for us, that they only have a table for 4. Mind you, every other table had more than 4 people. Immediately after us, there was a white couple who got turned away also and were angry that they were denied a table. Deductive reasoning would imply that we were denied a table because we are white. We went next door to the crazy Mexican restaurant and got amazing...
