The food is hot and delicious. The size of the meal isn't huge like other restaurants but the quality far bypasses them. The service is fast and friendly. The inside is like average Mexican restaurant. Nothing too flashy.

The service is terrible! When picking up an online order that has already been paid for, they seem to be annoyed when you come in to pick it up. The food is subpar at best. Every sauce or cheese you get is extremely watered down.

About as good as Mexican food gets this side of the Mississippi River. Great service and great eats.

I wanted to try it since the reviews were so good but I will not be going back. I'm only doing this review to warn others, like myself, that are looking at the 4 stars thinking it will be great. I ordered the queso and it was extremely watery. Probably the most watered down queso I've ever see. The guacamole dip was like out of the jar type in the chip aisle, soupy-like in blender, not the fresh avocado kind most restaurants serve. It had an off taste too. The salsa tasted exactly like Old El Paso salsa. I really believe that's what they must use. On a positive note... the staff were friendly and the fajitas were decent.

Service is always top notch friendly every time we’ve eaten here, probably 25 times or more. Never been disappointed. My wife’s favorite is Special Lunch #1 with Poblano and soft Taco. I’ve always enjoyed their Shrimp dishes and had Taco Salad with Shrimp. the Shrimp are always cooked to perfection, a good size and plentiful.. Never anything but delish reasonable meals.

El Torero is one of the best Mexican restaurants I have ever been to. My wife and I frequent this spot and enjoy their delicious food, amazing salsa, and incredible hospitality. The staff is incredibly kind and always welcomes us with warm smiles and infectious kindness. We stumbled across this spot randomly on a Sunday and have gone many times since. Every new dish I try is incredible. This spot is so good that I reactivated my old Yelp account just to write this review! The ambiance is casual and welcoming and the perfect place for a fun and easy meal with friends or family, or friends AND family! 10 out of 10 would recommend.

This place is AMAZING! My husband and I recently discovered this spot and have not once been disappointed. The staff is beyond kind and hospitable and they make us feel welcomed and like family when we arrive. The food is fantastic, we always try new things and everything we have tried has been better than we could have possibly expected. This is our most favorite Mexican restaurant in the state and we highly recommend it! My husband asked me to include for fellow chorizo lovers that his favorite dish is the Burrito Adobado!

This was a fabulous discovery! My fajitas came out sizzling and scrumptious. Jose's did not steer me wrong, and it was mucho bueno!

They were not prepared at all for this holiday. Staff was running around with their heads cut off. No one particular waitstaff per table. Everyone was doing everything: the lady brought us to a table that wasn’t clean. My friend and I cleared the table, wiped it down in order to set down. We placed the dirty dishes, spray bottle and towel on another dirty table. 15 minutes later a man came and took drink orders. 20 minutes later we asked for menus. Then a different man brought the drinks. An hour in a lady came and took our order. 30 minutes later my food came, but my friends food didn’t. We asked 2 of the waitstaff where her food was and the lady said the kitchen was crazy. 15 minutes later I kid u not her food came from the opposite direction of the kitchen. We asked for a second drink, 15 minutes later it came. We asked for the bill, twice, literally 15 minutes later we received it and to top it off when we were leaving we had to wait yet again 15 minutes to pay!!! From 6pm to 9pm for just 2 people. They were very unorganized. But I understand it was a holiday.

Just left here, and the customer service was great! And most importantly, it was so clean in there. I'm a clean freak. They were nice, and respectful. I'm heading home now to try the food. If it's as good as a service that I just received, I'll be back again
We went there for the first time and the food was phenomenal. I ordered the chicken , steak and shrimp fajitas with the side of rice and refried beans with sour cream, lettuce and guacamole.Our server, Jose, was fast and friendly.The food came out literally sizzling! It was so good I literally almost licked the plate. Everything was eaten and scraped. Bravo El Torero!

This is a little gem of a Mexican food place tucked into a strip mall. And I'm from Texas, so I KNOW good Mexican food. The margaritas, both frozen & on the rocks were spot-on. The cheese dip with ground meat & pick de gallo was delish with warm, crisp tortilla chips. Although the cheese was a little thin it was perfect with the pico added in. The quesadillas were stuffed full of fajita meat, onions, peppers & cheese. Really yummy & large enough for 2 people to share. Our waitress, Angelica, was very pleasant, helpful & efficient. Her service was excellent! I just wish we lived closer so that we could make this a regular place to eat.

Everything we ordered was old and disgusting. I ordered Carne Asada. It was dry and had no flavor. My friend had fajitas, but they were cold. I did enjoy the margaritas. The ambiance was a bit strange. The girls at the bar were hilarious. They don't make there own tortillas?? Anyway, I'm never going back.
