Morgan Wolfe
Stopped in here randomly the other day for dinner one night and had one of the best dining experiences ever! Our servers name was Olivia and she was absolutely amazing! Every recommendation and/or suggestion was perfect! She was so delightful & amazing to have as our server and was so fun and funny and welcoming & just really made the experience and dinner so much better! One of the best servers we’ve ever had. If you get her as yours you’ll have the best time! The desserts and drinks were absolutely phenomenal as well. The churros and espresso martini were perfect! 10/10 experience will definitely be going back!

Nice upmarket place to get Mexican food. The atmosphere is modern and chic and the food is good. They start you off with chips and salsa. We had a taquito appetizer which was very good. I had the chicken fajitas which were ok. The chicken was a little bland. The service is good but it was busy. This is a good place to go with friends. Having so many TVs around the restaurant was an interesting choice. They also have a nice outdoor patio if you want to eat outside.

Food was excellent, drinks were excellent, staff was amazing. A comfortable, pleasant place that I will be recommending to friends and returning to. The fajitas were the best fajitas I’ve ever had; ingredients were fresh and perfectly cooked. Sauces complimented dishes excellently. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I ordered the chicken tortilla soup which was delicious and the skirt stake carne asada which has ZERO flavor. I dont even like regular table salt but I just kept adding it. The skirt stake had no seasoning at all and the blue corn tortilla they used made it even more bland (if that’s possible).

Ok so the food was not good, we got the 60 dollar Taco board, tacos were on soggy soft tortillas and very dry, cubby tacos would have been better, but not enough sauce was provided to fix the dryness of the meat, the drinks were like flavored water. Our waitress Leanne was fabulous though, atmosphere was nice, they comped our desert because we were so disappointed with the tacos, the best part, the desert! the cheesecake flan I highly recommend!

Not a lot for vegans here and way overpriced everything. But the tacos, guacamole, rice & beans were good quality and tasty. One and done. Well, I may pop in for their margarita!

We went to Toro for the first time on Friday night and we absolutely loved it. The hostess, Olivia, seemed genuinely happy to see us! It was busy but she eagerly took our name and sat us. Our server, Ben, was awesome. You truly just need to tell him what you are looking for and he can direct you with the menu. He knows the drinks and food very well and when I found it confusing, he did not make me feel any type of way! He simply asked me what I was looking for and made the perfect suggestions. As we sat there, the bartender that evening, Blossom, quickly brought our drinks over and she was also incredibly happy and kind! A true ray of sunshine! We then sat there hoping the food would also be delicious because we enjoyed the people working there so much! Luckily, the food was incredible. Honestly, we could not stop talking about the flavors…and that is NOT our personalities at all! We will certainly be back…likely next week…
