This was my first time back at this restaurant since the pandemic. I understand business has been hard due to the pandemic and it is hard to find staff. I have always loved eating here, but it has went downhill (possibly due to management change). I walked into the restaurant to blasting music and flashing lights. It is now more of a party setting with boring staff rather than a family restaurant like it used to be. Today is Tuesday, when they serve the $2 taco. We were immediately given chips yet sat for 10 minutes, waiting for our server to come. Our drinks took a while to come, what was once the best lemonade I have ever had now tasted like water. I was given a new one that didn’t taste much better. I ordered ONE taco as the special and so did the rest of our table. Our server didn’t notify us what exactly the special is and neither did the sign. After waiting 15 minutes, our food comes out. We were given 3 tacos per plate. I asked if these were the $2 tacos and the person who served the food said no, but went back into the kitchen to investigate the issue and didn’t come back. The cheese quesadilla came out piled with cheese and grease, making it nearly inedible. The tacos were good but we were unknowingly charged extra for lettuce and sour cream. Our $2 tacos now cost $9.99 per plate. The sloppy cheese quesadilla costs just as much. We paid $5 for two lemon-flavored waters. Disgusted with our experience here, we just simply paid in an effort to leave ASAP, instead of complaining to them as they seem to not want to resolve issues within their restaurant. El Rey Azteca, please do not offer specials if you are not going to serve them. I will not recommend this place to anyone nor come back. Do not come here if you like background music to enjoy your...
