Reviews for Los Toros Auténtico Español in Halifax, NS
Dry friendly staff, great menu variety, gluten free options available(ask and don’t go by the menu gf labels), nice patio and... view. Not Spanish and authentic. It is a Mexican adaptation of Spanish food. Read more
Just come here, don't ask questions. Order the paellas, doesn't matter which one they are all great. Then have a chilled glass... of white wine and enjoy life with your bourgeois friends. ***Laughs in delicious*** Read more
I can't say enough good things about this place! Due to a recent surgery, I have a difficult time navigating restaurants due to... new dietary considerations, but the food here was PERFECT! And very reminiscent of a trip we took to Spain years ago - veryauthentic Spanish food! It was a lovely sunny day, and we were looking for something filling, but light, so that we didn't feel"heavy" after our lunch. My husband had the most beautiful salad, and I had the scallops (tapas), and both were exactly theright choice. The food was delicious, the service was perfect, and the location was beautiful.

Wonderful food and warm, friendly service! Server Danielle was a joy! My husband and I shared a smoked salmon and crab crostini... app, Valencia paella, and churros for dessert. Portions are large. Our first authentic paella and we loved it! So delicious! Read more
I almost didn't end up going to Los Toros for dinner and I know now that I would have regretted missing this amazing opportunity... to enjoy scrumptious food. The paella was delicious and arrived fairly quickly. I liked how the dish had both shrimp with shelland without shell on. Very helpful for my picky husband that doesn't like peeling his shells. The mussels were cooked toperfection and very smooth tasting. The chorizo added a kick of heat while the chicken blended well with all of it. The rice waspacked full of saffron that you could taste, smell, and see. My plate was covered with left over oil but I scraped every grainof rice. My husband also ordered a sangria, the rose petal, which has a rose wine from Spain and I am enticed by the sweetnessof the drink. I'm a picky drinker (everything tastes sour or bitter), so I highly recommend it for people who like sweeterdrinks. Read more

Ordered the seafood paella for 2-3 people and the churros. Paella was more than enough for 2 people. If you were 3 hungry... eaters however, might not be enough. In terms of taste - great! However, I would have liked to have tasted the spices a bitmore. It seems like the prawns is what captured the most flavour. Although one shrimp did not seemed to be deveined, the restwere. The shells on 1-2 of the prawns were pretty hard to get off, but then again it’s paella, you need to use your hands!Churros were amazing - fresh, warm, crunchy on the outside, doughy in the middle. The chocolate dipping sauce was not necessary,but was not the best given that it seemed milk/watered down (or maybe it was the type of chocolate syrup used). Service wastop! I believe our waiter’s name was Ryan. He was quick, attentive and respectful. Great conversationalist as well. Nothing tocomplain there. Keep up the good work. We sat outside as it was a warm summer evening. There were some fruit flies, but notenough to bother us during our meal. The inside of the restaurant was very nice and clean, and so were the bathrooms. Thelocation is weird due to it’s proximity to the ferry terminal on one side and the Tim Hortons on the other. But honestly, ifit was placed anywhere else, I imagine it would be at par with the other high end restaurants on the waterfront. In terms ofprice, it was all decent given the level of inflation we are dealing with in 2022 - $90. If anything I would say the Churroswere on the expensive side for how many you get. Definitely recommend to quell that paella craving! Read more
