About El Torito

El Torito Taqueria & Mezcal House offers a great ambiance, excellent service, and delicious food and drinks. Despite its location, the restaurant makes up for it with its club-like aesthetic, numerous TVs, and chill atmosphere. The menu features mouth-watering dishes such as quesa birria, quesataco, and sautéed shrimp tacos, all made with handmade tortillas and homemade sauces. The guacamole and bean dip guacamole chips and salsa trio are must-try appetizers. The Mezcal Margarita is a popular drink option, and the owner's passion for Mezcal Tequila is evident in the various options available. The welcoming nature of the staff and pride in the restaurant create a pleasant dining experience. The inside is cozy and inviting, reminiscent of authentic Baja eateries, with friendly staff and a fun atmosphere. Guests often praise the food, especially tacos, birria, micheladas, and molcajetes, which are considered some of the best in the area. The restaurant is also known for its character, especially during special events like Halloween, when it is decorated and preparing for its annual haunted house, adding a unique touch to visits. Although the location might be a bit off the beaten path, the food, drinks, and friendly service make it a top spot worth visiting.
