Taqueria El Torito serves fantastic, authentic Mexican food that appeals to a diverse crowd. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, including the popular Carnitas (#36), tacos, and desserts like a two-layer dark chocolate and flan treat. The Al pastor tacos are absolutely amazing and by far the best in Kansas City, with generous portions of meat and a range of sauces, including a new habanero option. The restaurant also features a selection of Mexican sodas and delicious agua frescas. Prices are excellent, and the service is quick and friendly despite the high demand. While some staff may be less attentive, the food is always great, and the environment is lively, sometimes featuring a mariachi band. Overall, Taqueria El Torito is a great choice for Mexican food, catering, and grocery needs, perfect for families and definitely kid-friendly.
