We took their shrimp tacos, birria taco and the shrimp plate. Everything was so good, especially the shrimp. Their red salsa is *chef’s kiss*.

El Toro was excellent! I ordered a custom nacho salad - half the chips and add a bed of lettuce. It was better than every taco salad I've ever had. It is in a brand new little shopping plaza with easy parking.

Great food for decent price. Stopped on a road trip, and couldn’t have been happier we chose this over all the fast food options off the exit. You can order pickup online if you don’t have time to stop and eat.

Delicious! So so delicious! We had the Asada and Carnitas tacos. The meat was flavored well and the salsa was very tasty. Not too much heat, but tasty. If you want more heat, take a bite of the grilled jalapeño. It’s perfect. We also tried...Read More

Great spot for lunch while traveling. We ate on the patio. Kids enjoyed their burritos and we loved our empanadas! They have a good restroom as well.

So happy to stop by here on the way to SLO from Monterey (via Hwy 101)! Friendly and fast service and excellent tasting tacos (we got the carnitas and asado). The melon juice was also very good and welcome on a hot day. Thank you,...Read More

Everything feels authentic and good pricing. Being able to choose the meat for most of the dishes is great. Still a new establishment as of this review, but looking forward to see the new additions. Recommend the tripe tacos.
