We visited El Taco Rey in Colorado springs while visiting down there.
It is right off of the down town area. At first glance it looked too small for four of us to fit. Once we got inside it felt about the same. There are only 6 tables inside and two outside but there seemed to be a constant flow of people in and out of there.

The food was hot and fresh. The tacos were very good. Kimberly and I always use the beef taco's as a barometer as to how good a Mexican restaurant is. We prefer the beef to not be over spiced and the shells crunchy. We weren't disappointed. The beef was excellent the shells crunchy and the taco's were stuffed and even over stuffed with ingredients. Kimberly had beans and rice and the beans were even full of great flavor. I had the Relleno's and they were really good. They used whole green chili's (stem on) stuffed with cheese, battered and fried to a crisp goodness and smothered in their good green chili. and my lunch even came with a small salad that kind of hit the spot for me.

Overall good food, and decent prices. It was about 8 dollars per person and we all managed to get full. You can even download the menu in a PDF from their website.
