El Rey Cocina Y Cantina

Great Mexican food in Columbia! Ambiance is super cute, and their frozen Margs are great. They have authentic Mexican dishes available on the menu as well. I recommend dishes with seafood and Flan here! Will be coming back for sure to try more!

My husband and I came downtown not knowing what we wanted walked by and this place just seem to call to us lol…. No air on so do t go if you want to be in AC but man the food and drinks were amazing. The cucumber jalapeño margarita was PERFECT!!! The Birria taco plate was amazing the meat had excellent flavor and consume was yummy!

Food was fantastic! Margs are so good! I got their tacos and they were great! My momma got a taco salad and liked it, and my dad got their fajitas and really enjoyed those as well. The queso was queso, I feel like they coulda spiced it up a bit especially for being 10 bucks (for the large).

I want to come back for the ceviche and to try a few other things. But it's definitely somewhere I will be visiting again!

Final note- service was good but my only complaint is that the poor waitress didn't speak any english. I am usually fine with a bit of a barrier especially at a mexican joint. But she barely understood anything we said, which made getting recomendations for things impossible. I will say she was ontop of water and we got our food at a decent pace. But it was empty when we ate here.

Price- It is a little pricey but not terrible. For three people with 3 meals, a marg, and a large queso it was 80 without tip.

Visited on a Monday at 6:30pm and it was very slow. On a busier night getting food fast may be rough.

Like the look and overall feel of this place. The wait staff is very friendly. Food was very delicious, decent portion for the price. I do have to say the queso and guac is kind of expensive for the sizes they give you.

Have been a few times now, everything is amazing! I keep picking something new every time and each dish is better than the last. My current favorite is the salmon! Drinks are delicious and reasonably priced. Service has been top-notch. Definitely a contender for my new favorite place
