Mario Lopez came to the US Pacific Northwest with the dream and vision of offering authentic home styled Mexican meals across the region and founded Tacos El Rey as a taco truck business in Dakima, Washington.
Mario developed an effective business model in order for it to be duplicated successfully.
Today, his brother and family continue to honor his name and legacy across the region with over 10 Tacos el Rey locations throughout Washington State, Oregon, and Idaho.
Mario's dream became a reality.
Thank you Don Mario and God bless you!

"Tacos El Rey is hands down one of the best taco spots and Mexican food around! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and authentic — you can taste the quality in every bite. The tacos are perfectly seasoned, the meats are tender, and the handmade tortillas take it to another level. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere gives you that true authentic Mexican Restaurant vibe."

" I’ve driven by this place a thousand times, it feels like. Never having stopped in
I asked ChatGPT today, “what’s the best Mexican restaurant for value, quality, etc?”
He came back with this (his name is Horus, don’t judge) as his #1 pic.
The algorithms and binary didn’t lie…
This place is crazy good, and friendly!
Will be back for sure! "

" The food is really amazing, I got their goat soup and tacos (lengua, cabeza, barbacoa) both of them are amazing. I didn't know what to expect with the goat soup, but it actually tastes good if you are into sour.
It tastes like pinapaitan in Philippines. The goat meat is super tender and not chewy at all so it's great! Their salsa for tacos are superb 👌 I love the guacamole sauce. There are so many things I wanna try so I'm definitely coming back! "
