    We're regular El Torito brunch guests, so this visit was disappointing. There was a 25-minute wait despite several open tables when we arrived. The omelet station was unattended for a period of time, and the waffle syrups were nearly empty. Overall, the food quality did not match what we've experienced at other locations. Our server was really friendly but not very attentive, and we had to flag her down when we needed assistance. It also appeared the staff member bussing and maintaining multiple areas was overwhelmed. At $39.50 per person, we expected a more organized and attentive experience. We're hoping this was just an off day.

    Can you say "THE BEST MOTHERS DAY BRUNCH!!" because that's exactly what this is. El Torito is always doing their thing for brunch and they went above and beyond for Mother's Day! Delicious food, drinks, and even better service! Javier, the manager always is so attentive making sure we're well taken care of!

    We were charged $13.75 for each Cadillac Margarita x 3

    Sadly, we were overcharged for the Cadillac Margaritas. There is a huge sign out front for the Mother's Day brunch. On the bottom line you can see $5 Bloody Mary's and $5 Cadillac Margaritas. We will be back to be reimbursed. The restaurant was crazy busy when we left and didn't want to cause a scene.

    Thank you El Torito for hosting our Mother's Day event .. our booking was easy and smooth. Service was excellent, your staff was amazing , the restaurant had a delightful ambiance. Our taco buffet was really good .. will definitely keep you in mind for our future events .

    Not bad... Also, nothing mind-blowing. The food was very mediocre and bland. I remember El Torito being great in the past. It's definitely changed. The food was bland, and the beans were overly salty. The beans were gross lol The enchiladas were alright. Nothing to rave about though, sadly. I got the cheese enchiladas, and my husband got the shrimp enchiladas. The enchiladas were bland. The rice was maybe from the day before. Not fresh by any means. The service was good. They were friendly and very sweet. Our waiter went out of his way to surprise my friend with a dessert for her birthday. That was very kind. My friend loved it! We sang happy birthday to her. It was a good time. Service was 10/10 I just wish the food was better. I used to love El Torito. It could have been an off day for the rice and beans, and the enchiladas lol

    Taco Tuesday

    Came in for Taco Tuesday which starts at 4pm. We sat in the bar section and it promptly got busy. There was one bartender who also went around taking orders, one person taking care of the taco section including making the corn tortillas, and a server that was taking care of the whole restaurant. It looked stressful but they did an amazing job and then I saw more staff come in around 5pm. I had the carnitas and al pastor tacos and they also had beans and their famous corn cakes. I highly recommend this place for Taco Tuesday but unless you get there at 4pm, you might have a little bit of a wait.

    NACHOS SUPREMOS

    When walking in I see that the the area is clean and big! I did go on a Wednesday night and the vibes were so cool! Not too busy but a nice ambiance, when being sat I get my host Liliana she attends me and goes above and beyond she recommended a drink ( it had a watermelon slice) and it was amazing!! I frankly couldn't choose one plate so I decided to get a platter with three items so I can get a great taste of everything! The nachos were my favorite it had like an enchilada sauce and the egg rolls were BOMB.com!! The service was great and would recommend to eat here and ask for Liliana she was a hoot!!

    Got in quickly. Was greeted by Sol. She was so sweet and very helpful. She was never just standing around, she was running from table to table. Everything was great, food, atmosphere & staff.

    Javier is outstanding!!! Great service. Javier helped us find the dodger game and was very out going.

    I opted for the Cheese enchilada combo with the sour cream sauce. It is advertised as chicken enchiladas but I only wanted cheese.

    Wonderful atmosphere here. Very big place. We went for the lunch specials menu to check it out for the first time and I was shocked at the amount of food you get for $9.99 It tasted excellent and the chips were warm and fresh. Salsa was homemade and had a little kick. Service was on top of it with refills. Will go back for sure

A major selling…read morepoint was that they would take a reservation on a Saturday morning, when we feared everything else would be too crowded for a group our size, and a solid Yelp review finalized our choice. As it turned out, the place wasn't busy. A special treat was that a group of bluegrass musicians was jamming as we ate. Apparently they are there every Saturday morning. The ambience is quite dark and moody with wood paneling and minimal lighting that made me use my phone flashlight to read the menu more easily--more of the saloon vibe than a restaurant. But it fit the Western theme. The breakfast menu was pretty varied, the portions were large, and the food was pretty good, though not the best I've had. There was an error in one order, and I'll give the server slack because a group of ten is a lot to handle, but syrup arrived late for the pancakes, and butter and jam had to be requested for the biscuits. One odd thing was that they had no decaf coffee. The family was pleased. Overall, I'd call it a solid but not quite stellar choice for an old-fashioned breakfast in a theme setting.
