I have to say, my faith in this location has been restored! I reserved a table for our annual ladies ornament exchange. We were served by your waitress, Laura. She was very attentive, sweet, accurate and quick with our orders. I’m honestly impressed. She made us feel like we were the only table she was serving. Mind you, this was on a Sunday afternoon during brunch. Thank you so much Laura for your amazing customer service! Because of you we will certainly be back! And quite possibly for our 2025 exchange!

This was our 2nd annual family Christmas lunch for my father and his siblings. This year we only had 15 people and my only complaint was they brought the food out pretty much when a bunch of plates were ready and some dishes were a bit cold. Honestly we would prefer everyone eat as they are ready, we can't wait for others food to get cold. Our server was AMAZING though. Service was not an issue except for delivery of plates. The manager never stopped by. We will be booking another restaurant next year. I do recommend this El Torito for small groups.

I have to say I was extremely disappointed with our service. We went to celebrate my son’s 12th birthday. Food was forgotten, ordered incorrectly, and the service was terrible. I feel like something has happened to this location. I’ve been going there for years and the service has definitely declined. We will be spending our birthdays elsewhere in the future.

Still the best deal in town. The negative was the refried beans were way to running. Everything else was great. Lydia was awsome even since they were busy

Will not be coming back after 5 years of coming. No Tortilla Soup and waited a long time for Carnitas Tacos. They were also completely out of Ice Cream!

The food was delicious, from the turkey and ham and all the thanksgiving fares, all is seasoned well. The mashed potato was just perfect. Not to mention the servers were gracious.
