"The longstanding taqueria in Shaw expanded across state lines with an outpost in Ballston, complete with a 50-foot long bar and 10 different tacos on the menu. Those options include a “DC Taco” filled with panko-coated fried chicken breast strips, crispy potato frites, cilantro, and El Rey’s own mumbo sauce. Its biggest outpost to date recently debuted in Navy Yard with sprawling views of the Anacostia River and a terrific new taco menu." - Tierney Plumb
