Reviews for Torito Mexican Restaurant in San Antonio, TX
Delicious reminds me of my childhood. New renovations and new management! So delicious and affordable! Good was delicious and... the tea was refreshing! Read more
This place is a really good restaurant I discovered one day out of the blue. Looks a little rough but don't let that fool you. ... Been here like 5 times and food is always good and hot. It is a really good deal, the prices are really reasonable. The puffytaco with the enchiladas is a good plate. Recommend. Carne guisada was also good as were the rice, beans and tortillas. Thisrestaurant is a lot better than that other place a few blocks up the road. I think it has equally as good food as some of theother highly named and very over priced restaurants on the Southside. And you don't have to wait. Read more
It was delicious and fast service. The tortillas were off the chain. Yum yum get you some!
Tortillas are not good. Service is sub par. Ordered Chile Relleno for $9 and there is no filling?it?s just a Chile with ranchero... salsa. Mind you it took an hour to get my food. I?m ok with never coming back here? Read more
This is a truly hidden gem, of the Southside community. I personally have been coming to this wonderful family-owned... establishment since I was in my teens. I am now 53 years old and drive from the far north side of San Antonio all the way overto the south side Restaurant of my youth and my entire life. For a $6.25. Full enchilada Dinner or a $5.99 whatever lunchspecial is being had that day. My fiance and I Trek all the way across town to enjoy this wonderful homemade San Antoniooriginal authentic Hispanic / Tejano menu. Anyone by passing this little Hole in the Wall Restaurant would be doing themselves agreat disservice and not frequent in this wonderful restaurant. I hope you all give it a shot and enjoy the wonderful cuisine atthis little place called, Torritos. Read more
There?s some heavy Twilight Zone vibes on good ol? South Presa - as a matter of fact, I?ve always said that if a street could be... haunted, it would be this three and a half mile stretch of S. Presa starting at Steves and ending at Old Corpus Christi Highway- drivin? this road at night, preferably slightly chilly with a moonless starry sky (while listening to old surf instrumentals),it never fails to transport me to another time, it?s so quiet, so old, it could just as easily be 1962 as 2022 - maybe it?s thewidth of the road combined with the age of the buildings, lots and lots of still intact 1920s-1950s structures, hardly anythingbuilt after 1970, an absence of glowing billboard(s) and barely any streetlights at all - it?s what I would imagine a highway in1942 (in Los Angeles) looking like - and for every dimly lit semi-occupied building there?s about three or four completely darkand seemingly abandoned ones - if you could turn an Edward Hopper painting into a real place, it would be this dark and dreamystrip of South Presa - if the plot of THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE happened in San Antonio, it would have happened here onthis stretch of South Presa (and probably at the Motel 3 Johnson Court) - this is the old San Antonio, the original San Antonio- (and) then down there by the ghostly Hot Wells Ruins is one of my very favorite places for breakfast for dinner, the good ol?time-warped Torito Mexican Restaurant, built out of cinder blocks and (also) looking like something straight out of an old 1940sfilm noir (and) which (also) in my very humble opinion has some of the best chee-lah-key-less in town - I have love in my heartand also in my stomach - this is heaven on earth.

Hole in the wall for sure, but clean and freshly painted. Clean bathrooms. Always a good sign when your server doesn't speak... English, but you'll get by. Recommend staying with more traditional dishes and avoiding deep fried food, not their strong suit. Don't be in a hurry. Basic old school Mexican fair, homemade corn tortillas. We hit the spot after walking the river trailfrom downtown. Read more
I came here three days in a row, tried different dishes on the menu. Love all of them! The breakfast taco special between 6am... and 10 am is a huge steal (3 for 2.99!). I am on one meal a day diet so I eat a lot. But still paying less than $20 includingtips. The food is great. Large portions, good flavors, fast services. Clean and cozy. Read more
