Founded in 1974, King Taco began operations from a converted ice cream truck in East Los Angeles and quickly gained popularity for its authentic Mexican fast food. Today, it has expanded to 22 locations and is recognized as one of the few surviving original restaurants in Los Angeles.

The restaurant is known for its wide variety of traditional offerings, and its legacy is celebrated in a painting by artist Ricardo Barragan, which pays homage to its early days. King Taco has become a beloved staple in the community, maintaining a strong commitment to accessibility and inclusion.
