El Torito is a popular Mexican restaurant that offers a variety of flavorful dishes. While some customers have mentioned issues with food quality, such as the taco salad lacking crispiness and the salsa seeming store-bought, the restaurant's service has been praised. The shrimp dishes were reported as overly salty and harsh during a busy Mexican Mother's Day, but the staff's efforts made the dining experience bearable. The chicken fajitas were not sizzling as expected, but the bartender and manager provided an excellent experience, with the bartender David creating great drinks and the manager Esther ensuring everything was going well. Despite some inconsistencies in food quality, the restaurant's overall atmosphere and service have been well-received by customers, who may be inclined to return.
