I was being harrased by someone at the bar telling me to leave within 10 seconds, otherwise they’ll be trouble. I went up to the Manager to complain about this situation, he said i had recently joined the group of people at the bar. Therefore that certian individual wasn’t at fault. He never escorted him out to begin with.

I had seafood and Mexican style food.
Just Superb!
Karaoke starts like 11pm. Fri, Sat, Sun.
Also suitable for dancing.
Girls (meseras) joyful and fully focused on you as a customer.
Beautiful night.
Also I would be there soon to meet the venezolana girl waitress Angy. Gorgeous.

We went to El Taurino Mexican Grill and really enjoyed the great atmosphere—the décor is awesome and the food was presented beautifully. However, we were pretty disappointed with the flavor. This was the first time we’ve eaten here, and honestly the first time we’ve ever had Mexican food with no flavor. Even my wife felt the same way. That was the only thing we weren’t happy with, but we hope they can improve because the place itself is really nice.

Some of the best chiles rellenos I've had, only major complaint is whoever does the music actively cranks it up higher to the point where hearing someone sitting next to you, much less your own thoughts becomes impossible.
Turn down the damn music. Great food.

This place is excellent. If you want authentic food with a great atmosphere look no further. I can't even begin to describe the absolute ecstasy my mouth was feeling after enjoying their al pastor tacos right from their rotisserie. Truly traditional and you can taste it! Their salsas are to die for and everything is made scratch! I wouldn't want to go anywhere else for my fix. This place is top tier in all regards and would highly recommend to anyone local or out of town. There's always a DJ on the weekends kicking it off with tunes anyone can get their groove on to. Last time I was here they even had karaoke and everyone was singing along. What a great atmosphere. The owner is always here when I am and very attentive if you need anything. He's such a gentleman and caters to every customers needs. Definitely going above and beyond for what an owner/operator. I literally can't say enough good things about this place. Not enough words describe what a great experience I have each and every time I come by. I can't wait for my next time here!

Thet are open ti 3AM and they have karoake
Service was terrible only had one person working the bar and food
The manager on 4-12-25 refused to give us our card back to my disabled mother because she couldn’t walk into the establishment. She sent myself(her daughter) to pay for her food and he never gave the card back, when I asked for it, he said he needed to see an ID. She then called to see if he could come outside to verify it was her and check her ID and he said “If you want your card you will walk in because it’s your problem not mine.”
I am glad I listened to the voice in my head to tell me not to get Portillo’s. I got the Taco Tuesday special instead and it’s amazing! 😍 10/10

Fish tacos are pretty good. The sauce is especially tasty. And kinda spicy too. Service is pretty good. In the very late hours (10pm onward) they even have a cop to help with pick ups cuz the karaoke music is so loud. This place has a bit of a hole in the wall vibe. Small restaurant size but good service and very tasty food. Update: I had dine in service and everything was really good. They give you three different salsa dips for the chips (on the house and free refills)- their salsa dips are very good. Just a heads up, they add on a cc fee so best to pay w cash. But just wanna add, I had Taco Maya today and I would say they are similar in level of quality. Side note: there is a bad review by McKayla C below and I would totally disregard that- they're just complaining about the fact that after 10pm, it's like Larga vida a México-they really get the music going so patrons can destress. This restaurant is not a club/nightclub-before 10pm, it's a sit down restaurant AND there is a bar. I went with my mom recently and she liked it. In the past I went with my friend.
