Best $12 shrimp fajitas I've ever had. Tons of chips and salsa, big portions for value, and very friendly staff. If you're coming in to see Superman, drop by here too!

The staff greets you with a smile. They are quick with service. It's not a large place but the atmosphere is fun. The food is reasonable in price and portions are good size. They offer margarita flights and pretty much any favorite Mexican dish you could want

I called an hour in advance for a table for 6 adults and 3 children and whomever took the call was very kind and assured the table would be available. We took my Veteran disabled brother for his FAVORITE Mexican food and the server was so kind to make sure we had everything we needed. She checked on us frequently, spoke to the children and asked them for their orders as well. My middle granddaughter asked "are we customers?" Normally a server will just speak to the parent. The food was hot and delicious. But besides the great service she made my brother feel extra special for his birthday and as you can see the expression on his face he loved it. Thank you El Toro Loco! We will be back.Vegetarian options: I noticed a lot of options, but I'm not a vegetarian so I just passed it by.Parking: Parking is on the street, but there is more parking by the alley towards the back, behind the outdoor seating areaKid-friendliness: The server spoke to the children and asked them for their drinks and if they wanted ketchup? They did get an activity placement, but nothing to color or write on the with. But they really were on good behavior. But I was able to find 3 ink pens in my purse. And they really didn't need them as the food was right out. They had enough booster seats for all 3 children and plenty more for other children if needed.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair easily to roll up on the sidewalk and roll right into the restaurant.

We didn't realize that the restaurant was closing early on Sunday, and going to be closed the following week. Initially we were seated at a small booth. We were a party of 4 full-sized adults so we moved ourselves to a more comfortable table. The food was okay. The steak tacos weren't tender steak. Wouldn't recommend them.

Was very disappointed with the service and the food, ordered a Ribeye steak rare and got it well done, told the waiter about and he did nothing, I didn't eat it and went to pay, told the cashier they needed to show the cook the difference between rare and well done, she said she was going to ask the manager if she could give me a discount since I didn't eat it and she came back and said no, I guess you get what they want to give you and still have to pay for it. Too bad for them it's more about the Dollar than a satisfied customer.

Great service on top of excellent food! Home run! Try the homemade house hot sauce- different (and better!) than any others we have tried. Priced fairly for the homemade quality!

This food far surpassed any other Mexican restaurant we have had in years ... our server was also excellent and offered different varieties of salsa and habenoro and jalapeño cream sauces. All excellent highly recommend!!
