El Torito Reviews
The food here has is excellent and the people employed are very friendly
Fresh taco buffet lunch special. Plenty of seating. Great food.
WORST EVER!
We had reservation, we reached on time, the restaurant made us wait on the table for 50 min only to tell us that they won’t serve us because they’re out of brunch time and we’ll have to wait another hour to get lunch if we decide to stay. There was no remorse towards this stupidity. The server took half hour just to get water and menu, only to tell us later that they can’t host us. UNPROFESSIONALISM at its best! Never stepping in there again. BEWARE!

El Torito is a restaurant that honors veterans by offering a 20% discount. The food has been described as good, and the service as satisfactory, despite being a bit slow. The restaurant is known for its traditional Mexican dishes and excellent service, as expressed by a family who celebrated a birthday there. The brunch option is also popular, with plenty of food and table options, although parking can be challenging at peak times. The location in a shopping center provides additional parking options.

They particularly appreciate the different meats prepared, the homemade corn tortillas, and the excellent service provided by servers. The restaurant is praised for its welcoming atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious menu items, such as the sizzling fajitas platter, fresh guacamole, and sweet corn. Servers like Juan Oliver, Fernando, and Balerit are highlighted for their exceptional service, professionalism, and personable interactions, making the dining experience enjoyable and memorable.
