El Rey del Taco (Food Truck) — Restaurant in Raleigh

Best taco truck in the triangle!

I’ve been eating at El Rey for 5+ years now, and I’ve never once had a bad experience. Their food is so good, that when my wife and I got married earlier this year we decided to use them to cater our reception and they were amazing! Maria was very good at staying in communication with me, she helped me customize the menu in order to make the serving process move quickly, their staff is always friendly and helpful, their prices were very reasonable, and overall it was just a great experience. I would 100% recommend them for any event you need catered, or just to get lunch any day...

There was an older lady that when we came up smiled very kindly at us while she was cooking. The girl on the phone and the ones that gives you the food could be kinder. I’d go back for another...
