The views from this place are simply amazing! I highly recommend making a reservation on OpenTable and requesting a table by the windows to enjoy the stunning ocean view while dining. The food? Easily some of the best Mexican cuisine in town—no small feat considering...Read More

I recently dined in, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. I must say though that you have to pay a parking fee for $30! Which I think is a bit crazy, due to having to pay $40 per person! When you go...Read More

Maria Cruz is the best person to ever exist. Let’s go back real quick. Entering El Torito, you are met with endless smiles and warm hospitality. We were seated immediately despite the immense crowd. Our server MARIA CRUZ walks out with a plate full of...Read More

We really enjoyed the experience overall, the food would have been 5 stars based on the salsa and chips alone, but the fajita trio was a bit underwhelming. The shrimp were not marinated, and weren't sauteed very well so they seemed boiled. The skirt...Read More

Great location, good food and large portions. Great view from the water side windows. We had a fairly long wait for our food but they brought us really fresh complimentary tortilla chips and salsa right away. I had the taco salad. Very good and HUGE....Read More
