King Burrito

When a taco house spiffs up its space, the quality of food often decreases proportionally. So thank Our Lady of Guadalupe no one's wiped away the grease and grit that clings to King Burrito like so much menudo—which by, the way, they serve here next to huge tongue burritos ($3.90) and beef-head tacos ($1.25), both of which sound so much better in Spanish. Authenticity aside, gringo grubbers can grab hamburgers and hot dogs ($2-$3.25) piled high with chili, cheese and bacon as well as chili cheese fries and nachos ($2.50), but why would you do that once you've tasted one of their delectable carne asada tacos ($1.25)?
