We were just aired by Rachel. She provided great service. Always coming to check if we needed anything.

My daughter and I have been coming for the better part of a year. Only for the brunch to enjoy the atmosphere food and of course unlimited mimosas. We have grown to know our servers, although everyone here has always offered exceptional service. I'd like to offer my flowers to; Andrea, Vanessa, and Karen. Not only is the food always on point our mimosas never run dry and they have yet to ever serve us without a smile on their face. read more

I had a really fun and great experience at the El Torito. Happy hour. The street corn was on point. The wings were so flavorful I highly recommend. And the flights have a great combination of different flavors to try as well. read more

El Torito was a 10/10 experience! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The service was friendly, fast, and attentive. Everything from start to finish was perfect. Definitely coming back! read more

Went for my son's birthday. Food was delicious but I was very disappointed with the waiter. I had mentioned that it was my son's birthday and he said he would get a flan with a candle. Well the time came to do that and he just gave us the check. How disappointing! A waiter should be listening to his customers and their needs. My son actually didn't care but I did. His tip could have been bigger read more

The food was excellent & Rachel, our server, was amazing & very attentive making my experience gratifying. I'd come back as she represented El Torito "Well"! read more

I'm rating for the brunch only. Have not eaten a regular meal here for quite a few years, although the food has always been good. As far as the brunch, it's fabulous. Love the selection of Mexican food, but also great omelette bar and freshly carved meats. Also have a taco bear with a variety of meats. My son loves the waffle bar, and they have a great dessert selection. The price point is good considering most all-you-can-eat brunches & the food is fresh and much of it made-to-order. read more

I want to write about the poor service I received January 13th. The "manager" Francisco made my friends and I feel extremely uncomfortable and pressured into writing reviews even though the service was terrible. Poor server was running around by herself while manager was walking around asking for reviews .... I've been coming here for years. Management has always been very poor. read more

Mayra is the best waitress here !! She did an amazing job explaining the menu and options we had available to us! Great vibe ! She was super nice and kind ! The churro pancakes are a MUST!! read more

Haven't been here for over a year because service wasn't good. I must say the food was on point and so was the margarita I ordered. Sadly the service wasn't great. Slow service from our waitress and she had low energy and didn't seem happy being there, hardly checked on us and we were her only table . If you don't like giving good service don't get into the service industry. We spend our hard earned money. Earn your tip at least. 5 stars for the food and cooks. read more

Ordered the Soup and Salad lunch. Finished half of the soup and asked for a container to take the rest home. The server and the manager both refused because it was an all you can eat and even though I hadn't ordered seconds and they were going to throw away the remaining soup because "corporate" wouldn't let them give me a to go container. This is an irresponsible and ridiculous policy that does nothing but promote food waste and is bad for the environment. On top of everything they now charge a 3.99% surcharge on every check to cover "rising labor costs." This has been a really sour end to an otherwise enjoyable lunch. They can do so much better with just a little common sense. Won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Hands down one of the best places in our clean restrooms always stocked up on to shoot amazing service. Karen is one of the most amazing people to be served by as well as Melissa and Andrea. These are the best people in AV to be served by especially when doing unlimited brunch, thank you to these ladies! This place has the best dining options as well as customer service I recommend anybody stopping by visiting or living in the area read more

El Torito - Mexican Near Me - Palmdale, California

WORST EXPERIENCE at any restaurant I have ever had. I reserved a spot for thanksgiving and they tried to put my party of 7 in a small booth. I asked for a larger one. The overweight male manager told my family no we could wait and that the next party was getting the bigger table. He was rude but Elizabeth the rude homely little girl at the front turned her head with the rudest attitude and snapped at me with sarcasm and smugness. Told me we can either sit of leave. She yelled at us and told us to either sit or leave. She was saving that spot for her friends and family. She was saying she was being so rude because we were "coming at her manager side ways." Her manger was trying to tell her to go to the back cus she was acting so rude. She refused to go to the back to cool down. His staff runs him, he isn't in charge of anyone there. And said she didn't care cus she's leaving this job anyway. I only stepped in because the manager and Elizabeth were both being so rude to my 70 year old mom. Elizabeth told us, "We're just wasting our time to not get to our Thanksgiving dinner." So happy thanksgiving, I guess. Good thing I had a back up. But I'll never eat here again. Hope her new job at the dump goes better :) I'm assuming that's the only place to hire such a trash attitude. UPDATE: Black Angus was much better. The waitress and hostesses were all super sweet and happy to be at their job. The food was good and wasn't as expensive either. My waitress was so sweet and we all had a good time there. So, I'm happy we didn't sit and we did leave this place. read more

We visited on Tuesday night with a party of 4 and it was, once again, a good experience. We arrived and were instructed to choose between the Happy Hour side and the dining side. We selected the HH side, and after a few minutes a booth opened up and we were seated. The service all night was very good. The waitress was prompt and professional. It was Taco Tuesday, so there was a taco bar, you order from the waitress and she gives you a ticket to redeem for tacos at the bar. I had Salmon Tacos from the HH menu, we also had a burrito and taco salad, all were well prepared. The HH drink prices were nice. Overall: Good place to grab Mexican food. read more

The burrito was good and the nachos were solid. The service was well prepared and by the looks of it, is very nice. What's better is that it offers a Veteran's discount every time we go here for Veterans Day. Definitely would recommend going here if you feel like grabbing Mexican restaurants. 8.5/10 read more

Arrived on a Saturday afternoon for a family lunch. It was not that crowded yet it was a 25 to 30 mins wait. The gentleman who was our server was nice and polite. Their chips and salsa was brought warm and the salsa was extra spicy [too spicy for me but my mom loved it]. For drinks, I normally only order Cadillac margaritas because house margaritas give me a headache. However, I ordered a pomegranate house margarita and surprisingly it didn't taste like syrup and it didn't give me a headache. After we ordered our drinks, they were brought within 5 mins. For food, I ordered steak fajitas and my mom and cousin ordered their fajitas combo. Unlike the drinks bringing brought within 5 mins, it took 55 mins to bring the food [and that is not a hyperbole]. To me, that was entirely too long to wait for food and it wasn't packed. Fortunately, the food was hot and so was the tortillas. The service could of been a tad bit better: the waiter did not refill our waters but nonetheless, service was decent. I would return for their fajitas and margaritas and hopefully it's a less wait time with water refills. read more

Kind, friendly service was very appreciated. Food was outstanding - truth be told, I love Mexican everything and was thinking I'd eat here every day if I weren't a weary traveler! Nicely done, thank you! read more

We both ordered Cesar salad. (mine with no chicken). it arrived as a large plate of lettuce. No Pepito, no cheese, no nothing. 20$ lettuce. and it took a long time to arrive. The waiter must have been new as no old timer would present food like that. We asked for the rest of the salad and eventually it arrived. too late. Also it was freezing cold with air conditioning. We asked to have it turned down a notch. Never happened so we bundled up and then just gave up and left. Never to return. Used to be good. sadly, not anymore. read more

We decided to try El Torito with a party of nine. Since some of our group hadn't arrived yet, we asked if we could be seated first and start ordering for the rest of the party. However, the host seemed visibly annoyed by this simple request, which immediately set a negative tone for our experience. Rather than being accommodating, the staff made us feel like we were an inconvenience. Good customer service should be welcoming and flexible, especially for larger groups. Unfortunately, this experience left us feeling unwelcome, and it definitely affected our overall impression of the restaurant. read more

When we first walked in, we seen a waitress sitting down eating her taco. Which happens to be the same woman that greeted us and walk us to our seat. But that's the only beginning. The waitress was so nice and so kind until I didn't like what I received because it was cold and honestly taste like leftovers from the night before. Because we ordered drinks we were there maybe 30 minutes after she took the plate. During that time she did not say anything else to us. All the great customer service skills she showed us had completely flipped. Honestly believe that they're racist because another group of Black people came in and she had a total attitude towards them. I will never go here again if I can give zero stars I would. read more

Service is slow, ordered the seasonal pumpkin pina colada and it only tasted only like pina colada mix with no alcohol, waitress with the glasses on was barely attentive and only was talking to a lady with silver hair, when she brought my ribeye tacos it had 4 pieces of meat in it. My boyfriend waited 20 minutes for his soup. Never coming back here again. read more

I don't give much reviews out, but I have to say, it's been a while since I've been to El Torito due to a bad service experience I experienced in the past. Except for this time around. Our server was super sweet, was attentive and recommended items we never would have tried but actually loved. She did say she was fairly new but we thought she did an amazing job! Food was great as I remember. Service was excellent. Thank you Klarissa for an exceptional service and best of luck in future endeavors! Will definitely be back :) read more
