I normally do not this in the beginning. Stay away. its not worth it, overall. The food is decent but nothing special in taste.... Some of the meat was over cooked. I had to ask for a spoon for the sauce. It was not really filling. Service SUCKS. We hadto wait for service after seating at the bar. The waitress did ask help on everything. At the end, we had to beg to check outto leave. First to get the bill and next to get a person at the register. Skip The Bar. We sat at the bar. There is nobartender. It is just the wait staff. The Margaritas are a store mixes. (see pictures) There Basic Margaritas arestore bought mix with no additives. I could not taste much alcohol in them. Read more
First time coming here with my co worker and glad we did. It was like finding a hidden gem. We started off with a couple beers... and had chips and salsa. Then my buddy and I both had carne asada. The food came out hot prompt and delicious! A lot ofrestaurants I've been to sometimes the restaurants are hit or miss, but I am happy to say that this place is A one all the wayaround. Will definitely be back again! Read more
I will start this out with I love going to Mexican restaurants. I love trying new Mexican restaurants. When my Buddy suggested... we come here, I was like, I am in. We got here, and they were super busy, but we didn?t have to wait long to be seated. They gotour Margaritas to us pretty quickly. I have to say their Margaritas area is pretty outstanding! They are delicious. Also, chipsand salsa are yummy, salsa has a nice flavor, and the chips are nice and crispy. I am unsure what I ordered and was confusedwhen they brought it out with the soft taco shells. It was a T-Bone steak with sauce on it. Not sure what the taco shells werefor, but it was a pretty good steak, and the rice and beans were also pretty good. I am coming back here to check out other menuoptions. Read more
El Toro has a great Mexican dinner at a family restaurant. The decor is unique and reflects the Mexican heritage and matches the... atmosphere. There is a bar to sit at or booths for dining separated by large booth partitions. I had two cheese enchiladas withrefried beans and rice. It was very good, not too spicy and covered with lots of white cheese toppings. The enchilada sauce wasvery good too, and the chips and salsa that came with dinner was tasty. My wife had the beef taco and beef enchilada dinner andshe said it was very good. The staff was friendly enough and it looks like an authentic Mexican family restaurant. Read more
Great place. High quality furnishings. Friendly waiter, food is very good. My only complaint was the bright LED light above the... table the prevented me from taking good menu photos ???? Read more
I was in town for business and this place was next to my hotel so I thought I would give it a try. I?m from Texas and I was not... sure what to expect from this place. My burrito was large, and tasty! Stuffed with steak chorizo topped with cheese, shrimp andpineapple! I?ll definitely return if I?m in the area. Read more
This is a good Mexican restaurant with a real nice dining area and a friendly staff. The best thing on the menu is probably the... shrimp quesadilla but it is a bit small. The portions are not as large as other Mexican restaurants and it's a tad pricier, butstill a good place to check out. Read more
