Gift Tips

Try the El Rey burger or the El Rey Platter for a mix of Tex‑Mex favorites — the burger gets frequent praise for flavor and cook temperature.
Order the fajitas (especially the mixed fajitas for two) for a generous, shareable meal with tender beef and well‑seasoned chicken.
Start with the chips and salsa — the chips are often described as house‑made and come with a spicy salsa that's a standout.
Sample one of the margaritas or a frozen margarita flight; the house margaritas are popular and often recommended for happy hour value.
If you plan to dine during busy times, provide your cell phone at check‑in for text seating notifications and consider using the outside bar and patio while you wait.
