    A family friendly authentic Mexican restaurant !! The service was amazing and the food even better. Nice huge portions of goodness. Will definitely be my go to when I want a good burrito!

    Al pastor burrito

    Brush up on your "espanol" if you're coming to eat here! We lucked out and had a translator eating with us. They did however have one English speaking waitress who was very kind and fluent in both languages so no worries if you don't have your own on hand... We went in for lunch around 12pm and there were about 7 other occupied tables there as well. We walked in and were greeted (the normal thing a hostess would ask) in Spanish and I gave her a clueless look. So I turned to our Spanish speaking friend and he took over from there... they have music playing just loud enough to where you have speak with a smidge louder tone to be heard. The place isn't the biggest or nicest but the food is good and extremely fast. Could be because we ordered street tacos and a burrito but regardless it came out in less than 5mins of ordering. I don't recommend the Al pastor burrito as it was just too mushy and ended up coming apart. The Al pastor itself was delicious though! The general consensus at the table was we'd recommend this place and will likely be back if in the area again.

    Excellent service. Burritos are a little bit of a let down. Had eaten here twice but was not blown away like other places such as Durangos on Page ave. The free chips and salsa for me was it's saving grace. The place is on the small side so take out would be the better option. Plenty of parking.

    Don't let the name deceive you. It's a Mexican restaurant. When I asked my Mexican friend, where you take your family often for good Mexican food and I'm not looking for a fine dine. I need authentic food. He recommended this restaurant. As soon as, we entered and before even we settled. The server surprised us with complementary tortilla chips and salsas. Server is kind enough to get me a tomatillo salsa (green one) . Not only that, she stayed on top of refill. We are overwhelmed. We had below items Chicken fajitas: Ample quantity. Felt like chicken is little dry. Different from familiar sizzlers if you compare with other Mexican restaurants. Burger with fires: Nothing special. Typical as the name says. I know, not me. My that picky friend. Street tacos : Chicken , beef and Al pastor. Yum and cooked perfectly. Sope: traditional Mexican dish. Fried masa base with toppings. I've to to honest. With my minimal Spanish understanding I thought it is SOPA(soup). Seems like I scored a A in my Spanish test . SOPE is different. Anyways I like it. Came with chicken , cheese and lettuce toppings. Nice ambience as well. It's a shopping complex. So no issues with parking.

    In a random breakfast craving, my partner and I decided to go King Burrito. I heard about it on someone else's review of it. It's one of those places where you can sit yourself so we sat ourselves at a booth and glanced at the menu. She ordered a breakfast platter and I got the California burrito. Wanted to get a basic meal before we dive into the other options. My burrito was a good size, I loved the tortilla used, and the price was reasonable. I would recommend it. I have to try the lunch/dinner options. (Also, they had a seasonal Mexican chocolate drink i didn't get to try, but next time...I will)

    Tres Leches
    Lisa O.

    My Dad and I always come here for breakfast or brunch because we love their food, and I highly recommend their steak quesadilla and strawberry aqua Fresca. The restaurant had beautiful holiday decorations, and as a bonus, they gave us a complimentary sample of their pineapple Agua Fresca. The service is always excellent, and Dad orders their filling breakfast burritos or omelets. I also treated myself to a tres leches and took that home to enjoy later.

    Carne Asada
    Michelle L.

    I had heard of King Burrito but had never been before. It's a dive in an old strip center at Midland and Lindbergh. My dinner date was hyping their tamales so in we went. Turns out tamales are a winter special and they didn't have any. Sad face! We regrouped. I got the Carne Asada and my dinner date ordered an assortment of tacos. The food was good. The service was spotty. There are 2 other really popular Mexican restaurants in this area that have meat markets attached and I'd probably choose one of them over this one but it's certainly worth a stop if you're in the neighborhood.

    We went to KB on a Monday evening, about 6pm. The place was busy but there were a few tables available. The service was a little slow but Litzy, our server, was busy so we didn't fault anyone for that. The place is very nice looking and judging by the clientele it promised to be very good and authentic. It didn't disappoint. We got our drinks and ordered right away. The menu was nice and mostly labeled in spanish which I also took as a good sign. I ordered the mixed fajita and my tablemate ordered beef tacos. The fajitas were amazing, the vegetables seared perfectly as was the beef, chicken, and shrimp. The tortillas might even be restaurant-made. If not then I need to find where they buy them, I've never had such great ones before. The mixed fajitas are well recommended. The side of rice was also very good and the refried beans. The vegetables and sour cream that come on the plate were very fresh. The tacos were stuffed full. There were three to an order. Also very good and recommended. The bill came up to $26! That was for mixed fajitas (three proteins!) plus sides, an order of three tacos and two diet cokes. We were amazed - we've had a lot worse food for a lot more money. Through our entire meal there was a steady line of people getting take out. Very popular and we can certainly understand why. We will definitely be back again when we're in the area. This restaurant did not disappoint.

    King Burrito platter. A lot of food for a good price!

    First time visiting. We were on the search for breakfast and King Burrito was recommended via Yelp. Small and quaint. Easy access located off Lindbergh. Self seating - this confused me a bit as there was no sign indicating. But the food was good and the service was quick. I ordered the traditional KB platter and my partner ordered the California burrito. A lot of food for less than $25!

    Flan!
    Megan E.

    My husband has been telling me about his work lunches at King Burrito, and I am always up for Mexican, so we finally got there. It's a small spot, warm and friendly, and there are clearly regulars, which is always a good sign for me. I had a burrito that was huge and a little surprising. It was warm but had lettuce and sour cream inside. Just a temperature surprise. Also the cheese was American cheese, which, while unexpected, was very good! My spouse had a monstrous and delicious torta. We decided to take home half of our food so we could get the flan. It was caramelly and delicious. The staff was quick, friendly, and efficient. I would recommend a visit.

    Barbacoa burrito

    After many, many months of yearning, I finally got to try King Burrito. With short-form content being all the rage these days, all of the viral burrito-building videos had my burrito envy at an all time high. While there are exceptions, most of the Mexican restaurants in Missouri serve an aldulterated version of Mexican food to appeal to a wider consumer base. Completely understandable, but disappointing for fans of Mexican food, nonetheless. Nothing about this restaurant was a disappointment, though. I literally have nothing bad to say. For starters, they give you two different types of complimentary salsa, and both are delicious. One is a standard sort of cantina style, the other is, I believe, a tomatillo salsa. The barbacoa was fantastic, too - this may be the best burrito I've ever had. To say that my burrito envy has been satisfied would be a disservice to what they're doing over at King Burrito. This prowess of this restaurant, at every angle, is truly befitting of a crown. Not only was it worth the drive over, it was worth the year long anticipation. I cannot wait to go back, and I strongly recommend that you check it out if you're in or around the Saint Louis area.

    Sometimes it's good sometimes it's bad. I guess it depends on the cook. I've never been to the location but I've order from a 3rd party.

The music in the background and terracotta designs highlighted the threads of Mexican culture but made the Homer statue appear to be a little out of place! Definitely a fun dining experience. The outdoor seating felt super spacious. It was a beautiful day and temperate weather to be able eat outside. It did have numerous umbrellas and a covered portion which kept most of the seating shaded. The service was friendly and attentive. The food was good. I was a little disappointed with the bread used for the Torta. I was expecting a bolillo type bread where it the outside is a crisp crust but the inside is airy, chewy and sweet. Instead it was a Telera Bread that was like a very crumbly messy french roll. The pieces of chicken were very thin and cut into strips instead of one patty. It was very dry and not much flavor. The fries were potato-y but not seasoned or salty. Very bland. The aroma of all the food was phenomenal. But tasting the flavors and eating the dishes didn't quite live up to the hype of my super smeller.
