So good! Know your Spanish! When your food is ready they’ll call your number is Español. I had the burrito. It was ginormous and absolutely delicious.

I was in town visiting family and friends when my brother suggested this place. I think this is a very solid choice regarding authentic Mexican food. I had a sope de suadero and a taco de al pastor. The food was so fresh and flavorful. The environment was ridiculously clean and inviting. (My apologies, the photo doesn't do much justice)

They have a wide variety of salsa in front of the counter, their melon drink is amazing and so are the weekend specials. Make sure you get their early and try their specials. The take away order was perfectly packed and stayed fresh. The chorizo taco was yum.

I have been to the mountaintop; Tacos El Gordo in Las Vegas. I've been chasing that dragon ever since, looking for incredible handmade street tacos. Walking in to El Toro I had high hopes; it was very clean with an expansive, modern dining room, efficient ordering counter and a toppings bar. Alas, the tacos were just average. We got Asada, Pastor and chorizo. Pastor was the best, and I'd even rate it Very Good, the chorizo was fine, but the asada was dry and flavorless. The tortillas didn't taste freshly made and didn't seem like they had been grilled. Don't get me wrong, they weren't bad. I ate everything on my plate, and some from my wife and daughter's plate, I liked it all, we would absolutely go back, but I've tasted greatness and this, unfortunately isn't it. This is good. We got mango aqua fresca and horchata to drink; both a little too sweet. I saw someone with a bottle of Modelo, so they must have beer. I feel like this review comes off a little harsh, but I think that is mostly my disappointment at once again failing to find a rival to El Gordo. In all honesty this place is big, clean, friendly, fast and the food isn't bad at all. I would have no problem recommending it and would absolutely go back.

Been love this place so much! My Spanish sucks but they are much better on working with English now since moving to this location. I love the beef head (cabeza) tortas the best. The carne asada platillos has crazy amount of food and it’s amazing

The service and atmosphere are really pleasant, but to be honest, I mainly go to a restaurant to eat and not to relax.
I ordered a plate of potato and chicken flautas and everything in the plate was bland: the flautas, the rice and the beans!!!
I also took a bite from my husband's plate of one cecina taco and to my dismay it only amplified my disappointment.
😢
I don't recommend this place.
