Founded in 1974, King Taco started as a humble ice cream truck in East LA, quickly becoming a beloved Mexican fast food staple with 22 locations today. Serving a wide array of authentic Mexican dishes, King Taco has garnered praise from notable food critics and remains one of the original surviving restaurants in Los Angeles.
Painter Ricardo Barragan immortalized the early days of King Taco with a tribute painting, capturing the essence of the original marquee sign and the nostalgic 3rd street location where customers would enjoy their tacos on the hood of their cars. With a commitment to accessibility and inclusion, King Taco continues to delight customers with its rich history and delicious offerings.
