My daughter, granddaughter and I stopped here to eat. We are not from Greenwood, however.... Absolutely wonderful staff!!! My granddaughter loved our waiter. She gave him a tip before we even started. After we ate she asked if she could unload the dishwasher, the waiter proudly declined lol. Good food as well. Hope to see them again soon! (I left a tip as well lol)

We love this place.

We have come here for over 4 years. The staff loves everyone and it is more than a meal. It is family. I love this place. Thanks again!!!!

Good service, great food. They had those typical Americanized Mexican dishes and a few seemingly authentic Mexican dishes. Their menu is very extensive, so if you go there everyone in your family will find something that they like. However, it is a VERY loud place, as they have multiple birthday parties a night and they come out singing and playing instruments. If you want to celebrate something and have fun, this is a great place. If you want to come here and enjoy conversation, you may want to avoid it on weekends especially. I liked my dish, it was a lot of meat. Very generous portion and it easily made two meals for me.

By far the best jalapeño margarita! They put dry ice in the glass- it must change the taste...it's outstanding! Stays nice and cold...so good!

The food and margaritas are delicious! We tried a burrito and steak tacos and would get both again big portions we both took home left overs. They give you chips and salsa as soon as your seated here. Service was great and we received our food very quickly. We loved the wall paper and giant TVs - perfect spot to catch a game. Check it out!! Cheers!

Bar empty tables

Service. Waiters and manager (white pants guy) talking and laughing with each other, sitting at tables and standing at bar. Slow service. Normally chips and salsa brought to you when you sit down, but drinks brought to us and then waiter disappears for the first time. Chips are only brought five minutes later when another waiter notices we don't have any. Five more minutes pass before waiter comes back, and takes order. Wait 10 minutes before refills on chips and salsa and drinks are addressed, and not because waiter or manager noticed first. It might be understandable if restaurant was busy, but over half the tables were empty and wait staff was texting on phones and talking to each other in bar area. No longer the best Mexican restaurant around.

Margaritas

We had a fun time at El Toro! It is more of an experience rather than just dinner. We went on a Saturday night and the place was hoppin'! I would say that is the only negative I have. The volume was loud! Music loud, their birthday celebrations were loud, and everything in general loud. It was a great time, but if you're expecting quiet, this might not be the place to find it. The salsa was some of the best I've had. We ordered the Texas Fajitas and they were fantastic. Plenty of food for two people and then some. Everything was great. We got two flavored house margaritas that came out with dry ice to add a little flare! They were short a host and a busser, but as hard as everyone was working, you wouldn't have known. They were on top of it even being short handed. We will definitely be back for another flare-filled experience at El Toro!

I'm always looking for a decent Mexican restaurant. It came down to choosing between this one and another new one that I wanted to also try. We went there for lunch. The prices were very reasonable for the amount of food we received. The service was nice, and the food was even better. The atmosphere was calm and the decor was very subdued and pleasant as it wasn't too carnival like or bright in color like some Mexican restaurants do. I am impressed with this place. The food was very flavorful. The only thing I can say is that the ground beef they used for the tacos and anything else was very greasy. The salsa was very good, but the chips tasted a bit older or stale. It might have been the oil (older)? they were fried In. I noticed next to the kitchen there was a storage room and there was a couple of giant garbage cans with lids that said chips on it. I wonder if that's the reason? Sometimes I judge a Mexican restaurant on their salsa and their chili relleno. Both of them were very good. I was perplexed a little bit to see a pile of seasoned ground beef piled on top of my chili relleno. If I order it again I'll ask that they not put that on there. The beef taco was overfilled with meat and not much of anything else. I had to ask for a bit more of the standard toppings. The refried beans were excellent and the rice was pretty decent too. I just feel like they put a little bit more thought and effort into their food and the flavor. The presentation was nice too. We also waited quite a while for food as well so it means that the preparation was also probably mindful. When we went it wasn't very busy at all as well. Although they are not perfect, I think as far as Mexican restaurants go, they are a pretty decent Mexican restaurant. I definitely would consider going again and maybe trying something different on the menu.

This is a little hole in the wall that won't disappoint. Their menu is massive so everyone will…read morefind something they like. Service is prompt and friendly. Overall ambiance is so cute. They did a great job. Only four stars bc the refried beans are made with white beans which was very unexpected and their salsa is verde (made with tomatillos?) instead of the traditional red tomato one. They should give you an option. Granted I didn't ask bc I wanted to see what the "standard" things are. Their chips are fresh and tastes like they make them in house. You have a choice of corn or flour tortillas with your meal. Plenty of cheese drip is included in almost every dish so if you prefer more traditional dishes (wout all the cheese) let them know. They took it out for us. We only had the chicken loko dish but that was good. Easy parking too. Solid 4

Ambiance: This place is super cute. It's admittedly a small place next to a vape shop in a dinky…read morestrip mall but they've decorated very well inside and done what they could. It's clearly a family run business with the daughters helping out front and a mom in the kitchen. The place is freshly painted, there are comfy padded booths, tasteful decorations, and unobtrusive latin reggaeton playing in the background. Service was very friendly and food could take slightly on the longer side but that's because everything is made to order. The moment we put our order in we could hear the kitchen (which was one lady) throwing stuff on the cooktop and working hard the whole time. Food: They served some complimentary chips and salsa which were very good. The chips are actually fresh fried still with the glistening oil on them. Likewise, we got a bunch of tacos and the tortilla shells were fresh fried and crispy which was amazing. Quesa birria - The birria has a very deep rich flavor almost like cabeza meat, it might be from the bone/marrow used in the stock but it has a almost game-y flavor I hadn't had before. The dipping broth was excellent and they serve it with sliced cucumber, radishes, grilled jalapeños and caramelized onions which was such an amazing touch. If you're not opposed to bold flavors I would recommend this. 4.5/5 Barbacoa taco - Not a saucy Barbacoa like Chipotle but equally as flavorful and tender. This will always be a safe bet if you just want a beefy taco that pairs great with their salsas. 4/5 Al pastor torta - My wife likes tortas more than me but I will say the Al pastor is great. They do not skimp on the caramelized pineapple chunks and the pork has a nice coating of that smoky savory achiote seasoning. The torta itself is balanced in terms of the lettuce, beans, and tomato. The bread tastes home made with a slightly chewy texture. 4.5/5 Horchata - It's creamy and rich but not too sweet and generally mild on the cinnamon, all around enjoyable. They give you a giant mason jar of it too which is like 900 ml! 4.5/5 Special mention to the salsas which are just plain great. The hot salsa is like a roasted jalapeño salsa with a smokey kick from either pasilla or guajillo chiles. The green salsa is just perfectly balanced with a gentle savory and tangy flavor that enhances whatever you put in on. Overall I seriously enjoyed Fridas. It is not fancy or innovative but if you're looking for a family-run hole-in-the-wall business serving authentic and filling food, I would strongly recommend giving this place a try. Just for reference, we got two entrees, an horchata, and a la carte taco for $40 (pre-tip) and were stuffed for the rest of the day.
