    Steak tacos
    Dava P.

    We stopped by while in the area for a little snack. The prices are a little higher than back in the day when I used to live on that side of town but its been about 10 years. Not in the best area (OBT) but I had always picked up food to go which most do. We odered a few street tacos and ate there at one of the picnic tables. If you eat there like we did you might see a homeless person which we did and offered him a taco. Service was fine not much interaction because you order at the window then go grab it. Ambiance, I mean its an old checkers but like I said most order pick up and take their food to go. Food is still good as I remeber tho. I only give it a 4 star because prices and location. But I'd eat there again.

    I'm from San Antonio Texas so I would listen to my review. I used to eat Tex Mex and Mexican for breakfast lunch and dinner. This place IS GOOD!!! taste real! Doesn't taste fake like Taco Bell, everything taste real and homemade. I'm not lying. They are pretty efficient. I've read the drive through takes a while and while that is a little true (it's not a chain like McDonald's and it's real ass food so give them a break!) they still did make me a priority and get my food out to me while the person in front of me food was taking a while. I highly recommend. TRY IT NOW! It's like a rally's where u can drive through it or park and order at the window and sit outside. I got the nachos with chicken and the rice and beans sooo gooodddd

    Believe them. They are the king of the torta sandwich. I have been coming here for over a decade and I only wish I lived closer. I have eaten tortas all over and it still reigns true that Tortas del Rey is king. Honestly if you're coming here and eating anything else you're missing out. It's literally in the name.

    Checking out new taco place
    Bill S.

    I really wanted to like Tortas el Rey, after watching so many videos on TikTok and reading reviews on yelp it had me excited that I could finally find a taco stand that was reminiscent of the places I used to visit in Pilsen while living in Chicago. However, this was not to be. While visiting on a Thursday evening with no large crowd, we looked at the menu and ordered tacos for me and a chorizo burrito for my son. The taco fillings I chose were one each of: carne asada, chicken, Al pastor, and carnitas. We both ordered Horchata, then had an extended delay in waiting for our food to be prepared. I wish I could say that the extended delay for the food was worth it however I would be lying. My tacos were filled with a generous portion of meat, onions, and cilantro, and that's the best thing I could say about them while the tortillas were warm the filling was lukewarm about the same temperature as the onions my son, however, had a scalding hot interior to his burrito, which was so loosely wrapped that it fell apart. Every other taco place that I have ever visited has always given you two salsa cups for four tacos however there must be a shortage with their Verde salsa because I got one salsa for four tacos. The best thing about our visit was the Horchata at least that was good.

    Outside seating

    Don't come here for fancy... come here for excellent tacos at an incredibly reasonable price. $2.75 for one soft taco PACKED with meat. There are tons of meat selections from marinated pork, fried pork, chicken, steak, etc. They also have tamales, burritos, flautas, tortas, nachos, aqua frescas, and even desserts! You order at the walk-up window and there are a few tables outside to eat or you can drive up. Food comes out fast. Everything we ate was delicious. The best taco I had was the El pastor taco. The steak was a close second. The rice pudding was worth a try as well.

    Taco Carne Asada
    Barbara L.

    Carne Asada Tacos were a HIT!! The green sauce complimented the tacos perfectly, medium spice. The staff was very friendly. There is only outside seating and a drive through. The outside seating is clean and has umbrellas. Would def recommend if you're in the Florida Mall area.

    Grilled Steak Burrito
    Erlinda J.

    The closest thing to a SoCal taco shop in Orlando! I miss Taco Shops from San Diego. I know I can come here and get a piece of home. The onions are POTENT here so beware of that. I usually try to order with no onions if I can remember. Everything I've eaten here is so good! My faves: -Carne Asada burrito (no onions) -Fried Pork burrito (no onions) -Pork Tamale I prefer ordering ahead and picking up. When you order at the walk up window or drive through, it's about a 10-15 min wait if it isn't busy. There's outside seating with an umbrella shade at each table. There's minimal parking spaces and it's on a busy street(OBT). The food is worth every trip. I've never been disappointed with the food. The service varies but it's never bad. Some people are friendlier than others.

    Carne Asada Torta
    Jamise C.

    I can't imagine finding better tortas anywhere in Orlando. Everyone I've brought here has fallen in love with them and the horchata. It's a fast-food restaurant with a drive-thru and outside seating area. Please be aware that the wait came be long. I've gone late at night and waited 40 mins behind 6-8 cars. This isn't the place to choose if you're really hungry.

    Steak tacos
    Ron W.

    This place is spectacular. I've yet to try a torta, but I assume they are incredible given the name of the restaurant. My go-to is the steak taco with queso fresco added. So much flavor while being simple. They are small, so order at least 2-3 of them. I love that they give you lime wedges, two different salsas, and pickled veggies on the side. I also love the price! Do yourself a favor and order a sope, too. My favorite is with chorizo. They are very filling, so one is plenty. Order in advance. Then pick up. It's a much faster in-out that way. They have a few parking spots and tables. But I prefer to drive up and go.

    Santina R.

    Absolutely delicious, affordable and filling. You get a lot of food for your money. Authentic and tasty!

    Grilled steak taco
    Valentina L.

    Ordered for delivery to work. Chicken was good. Big portion of protein. Steak was better. Also a big serving of protein. Al Pastor / Marinated Pork was fire. Also a big serving of protein. The flavor reminded me of "mole" which I loved! The to go packaging was also thoughtful! Will be back whether it's delivery or pick up! Authentic and well priced! Way to go, Tortas El Rey.

    Sadie O.

    such a great easy spot to pop in for lunch or dinner! quick and friendly service. you just order at the counter and pick it up! they also have a drive thru option which is nice. my tacos were perfect and hit the spot. for $3 tacos and $2 hard tacos it's hard to beat. all seating is outdoor which worked fine this evening because it was very nice out. it's easy to understand why this place is so beloved!

    Tacos: Carnitas, Al Pastor, Pollo & Carne asada
    Tiffany M.

    Best authentic Mexican Tacos I've had in awhile. I kept hearing about Tortas El Rey, so I had to go see for myself. There's outside seating but also a drive-through and DoorDash available if you want to take it to go. Go here knowing what you're about to get, Mexican street food! Loved it so much, especially the price point. We got a feast, practically. For $35 we got 6 tacos, a sope, a Huarache and a Horchata. We didn't eat for the rest of the day from how full we were. Will definitely be returning for more tacos. The order took a bit but the day was so beautiful we didn't mind the wait. The staff was also kind so no complaints there as well.

    Disclaimer: this review is for the lunch buffet only…read more I went with my family to try the $18.49 all you can eat lunch buffet. This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.

I love their version of a crunch wrap as well as anything birria that they offer. My only real gripe is that their drink selection is lacking as they don't have traditional soda fountain drinks. It is basically just canned drinks or custom flavored lemonade drinks, which typically cost around $5 each. Also, make sure to bring your wallet as their food in general is $$$ for fast casual. However, the higher quality makes it worth it to me.

While we were eating, the owner came over around 11:15 and barked, "Time to go--leave, leave, leave," as if he were chasing animals out of his restaurant. To be clear, I have no problem with being asked to leave after closing. The problem was the owner's arrogant, aggressive, and humiliating way of speaking to paying customers. We were not loud, causing trouble, or refusing to leave. One polite sentence would have solved everything. The most disturbing part is that this was not an untrained employee--it was the OWNER. That means the disrespect comes directly from the top. He was happy to accept our money at 10:50, but twenty minutes later treated us like garbage he needed removed. Good food cannot compensate for an owner who shows this much contempt toward his own customers. There are plenty of taco restaurants in Orlando run by people who understand basic manners and appreciate your business. Spend your money at one of them. I will never return to Black Rooster Taqueria, and I strongly recommend avoiding it.

The margaritas are strong, but decent- they are clearly premixed so nothing outstanding, but still tasty and they do the job. The guacamole is also phenomenal. Do yourself a favor and give this local spot a try!
