This place isn't for someone wanting "authentic" Mexican food. The salsa roja would have been better on pizza. The tomatillo salsa was sour and the salsa verde had a funny taste to it too. I ordered the queso fundido de camarón, I didn't even eat a 1/4 of it, and it was served with flour tortillas.. that says it all. So I paid over $20 for tostadas and a coca Mexicana. read more

The restaurant was not busy and it took 40 mins to get our food. We both ordered the fish tacos and they were very bland. A little seasoning goes a long way. read more

Great atmosphere and service. Dropped by during pride and had a great pre Natasha Beddingfield meal. Food was super great and the margs are strong. You also get a lot of food for your money. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

We've never had a bad meal here and the service is always fast and friendly. They really went all out for Valentines Day with the decor. Love the Birria! read more

Great food and SO much! I got the enchiladas and they were delicious. They have great chips and salsa, too.

This location used to be Acapulco Joe but I personally believe it is better now as El Toro. I recommend coming here for lunch, even if you have a big group. They have long tables and their service doesn't suffer for a larger group - they still make everything super fast. We brought like 12 people and they had everything out to our table within 10 minutes of ordering. They also have good lunch specialties. They are the only Mexican place in town with a tortilla bowl! You can also get this at brothers but it has no meat in it. If you want a traditional taco salad, this is the place to go! read more

They charge you 20% tip when more than 4 people no matter the service they provide No previous advise!! How you can prevent charging for an excel service guy did t receive!?? (20%) ! Also, Choriqqueso is not real cheese read more

I have heard wonderful things about this restaurant, but I was unfortunately disappointed. I think it's probably great for a fun event, when they have live entertainment. I went during the week. The food was not great and I wasn't a fan of the overall vibe. The service was good and they definitely made my friend feel special for her birthday. read more

Okay so 2 stars for food and 1 star for that very nice patio. The tacos were extremely regular. My husband ordered some special and it came with tortillas. He was disgusted by the tortillas. I think we'll be back one day though... but just for the drinks because the food was lack luster. read more

I go here a lot of lunch since it's close to the office! It's a great place for a large last minute lunch group. Service might take a bit since many large work groups like to go from my experience, but the food is always hot and super tasty. A fav of a friend and myself is the boss burrito. Though you can't really go wrong with anything here. I did come here with friends on the weekend and it's defining more of a fun party vibe! A friend was celebrating her birthday and we got one of the shots planes! It was super fun! The drinks are good. The food is good. It's a staple now! read more

Great food very fresh and large portions. The tacos are filling as you picture meats. The Dakota is overstuffed with meat pepper onion and cheese. Great flavors. Amazing drinks that are large and strong . read more

With no prior research or experience with any El Toros, I was not sure about what to expect but loved experiencing the fun energy on a Friday night. Though maybe not the top notch dining experience, the great drinks and lively feel made for a great night out. Fun place to go out with friends or to celebrate a birthday. The staff really work hard to make El Toro stand out from other Tex-Mex spots. read more

Went around 4 pm on a Thursday so there was no one there. Nice place..fairly spacious, nice covered patio. Tacos were flavorless and fairly dry, though large and filling. The roja and Verde sauces were good though! My guest was not amazed by her food either. read more

Acapulco Joe's would never! Come for the cocktails, not the food but only if you're in the area. We ordered cocktails and they were pretty good; Pineapple Mojito, Paloma, and Watermelon Margarita on the rocks. The good news is the complimentary chips and salsa were good. The guacamole had the right amount of jalapeño and the queso was just alright. On to the disappointment!! 2 of us ordered the quesabirria tacos. I've been looking forward to these all week. They were inedible. The tortillas were soggy and lacked flavor. There's something tragic about biting into food thinking it's meat to discover you have a mouth full of greasy blobby fat!! The "birria" had more fat than meat. What little bit of meat there was tasted old, seemed like it was scraps from earlier in the week. Neither of us ate our tacos. We opened them up then picked through to find the little bits of meat in the sea of fat. Lastly, we were given mole passed off as consomé. Our server seemed clueless about everything and basically said that's how it comes. DO NOT ORDER BIRRIA unless you like eating fatty mushy flavorless tacos. The ceviche was better than the tacos but not worth a second visit. My friend said it was watery and didn't have much flavor. We all liked the cucumber with Tajín, lol Save your coins. This should probably be a 1 star review but I really love guacamole. read more

I was so excited for Mexican food, came here and the wait staff was so very nice. The food came out after a decent amount of time. The plates were burning hot though, including the child's plates. My kids loved their food. However, my food had a metal shaving in it. They did offer to replace it but at that point I was already turned off of my food.... They did take it off the bill. Also the waitress never came and refilled my water.......... read more

Twice in one day?! A friend invited me to lunch and our first choice didn't work so he brought me here. We came on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated immediately with chips and salsa. Then it took about 10-15 mins for anyone to come take our drink orders and food orders. They were not busy and the staff just kept walking by. Finally after an uncomfortable stare off between me and the manager, she came over and asked if we had been helped. I had the quesoBirria tacos. I was expecting them to be dipped/coated in the consume like the photo in the menu. They were not and I could not find any cheese inside. The flavor of the beef is 10/10. It was really good. I came back that evening because I already had plans for a GNO. The vibe is totally different at night. The drinks are cute but not strong at all. The way they serve it ...cute and hyped up. The staff is less than friendly both times I was there. They were very busy at the evening but never apologetic. read more

Stopped by for a late lunch and the food servings were huge. I got the spicy pork with beans tacos. The filling was delicious however I tried it in a flour tortilla and it was even better (to me). The two sauces that came with it were outstanding. I actually ordered beans & rice but it was really too much food, but I enjoyed what I could eat. As far as the drinks and service, it wasn't the best. I ordered a sangria margarita and it had to be one of the worst drinks I ever had. It wasn't super busy but we had to flag our waitress down several times and it was at least another 4 times that we asked for the check. Great food, poor service!! read more

delicious food, fun music, and great service. No complaints for the circumstance. loved it

Fun atmosphere, good food. Lots of food options. Delicious drinks. Will definitely be coming back.

Everything was great! The frozen margarita pitcher and quesadilla were more than we could've hoped for!

I'd give this one a 3.5/5. This place is just okay - the drinks are good but the food is just ok. The food I got was not what ordered but it took so long to get the food that I just ate it. And they charge you for every little thing. The waitress was attentive but got quite a few things wrong (or maybe didn't understand us) but they weren't complicated asks. This place used to be Acapulco Joe's and was a whole heck of alot better then. read more

Went for a networking event and the customer service was great! They were fast and made sure we had everything we needed. I tried the fish Ceviche and it was delicious I also tried the margarita flight and it was so much to share with others at the table. Parking was easy due to there being a garage next door and ample street parking . The feel of the restaurant is very festive ! read more

I was browsing DoorDash for something new and it did not disappoint. I ordered the veggie fajitas since it was National Fajita day. There was tons of fresh veggies. I usually don't care for the rice at Mexican restaurants and am pretty picky about refried beans, but their rice and beans were the best I've had anywhere. My mom had tacos and nearly licked her plate clean. I'm sure we will return, especially after I read about the margarita flights in other Yelp reviews. read more

Maria provided the best service for our birthday celebration! Great atmosphere, music and food!

This place sure puts on a show. Fri night was karaoke night. They bring shots in an airplane with fire works and a whistle. Our table ordered quite a few for a bday so we were looking for entertainment. The reviews on here that are negative complain about the noise. This is a party/ hype place!! Not your typical family Mexican restaurant. If you like a hype environment this is the place to be. The reviews were accurate. Food was pretty much same as other places and came out quick. Drinks were all a presentation. Some came on fire or bubbly. El toro came with 4 diff full size drinks. We got the margarita flight. Passion fruit was good but too sweet. Jalapeño was spicy. Mango was just right. Forgot the other one. I made mostly videos which I can't post. read more

Went here after the Indy 500 parade and had a great time. The salsa and queso is great. Lyman is the best.

What a find, right downtown... who knew? This is a great place for fancy drinks. You can get super expensive margarita flights or even patron margarita trees which actually come with mini fireworks... I something at another table arrive in a toy truck and prepared tableside. I assume that this had to be either El Catrin or Volcano, but I could be mistaken. But even if you are just going for one glass of margarita here, you are in for a treat. My guest chose the peach margarita on the rocks. This was served apparently with dry ice. The server poured it tableside and the fog poured out of the glass for quite a while. Beautiful to observe. I opted for the frozen green apple margarita and as a jolly rancher flavor it came with a green apple tootsie roll in the drink. How fun is that? Veggie options are rather limited here, so that and the prices are the reason for only 4 stars instead of 5, I would love to give 4 1/2 stars, but that's not an option. Vegetarians only have the choice of salads and 3 or 4 other dishes. Sorry guys. Personally I had the Chicken Tin Tan, which I had never seen on a Mexican menu, so I had to check it out. Chicken breast topped with spinach, sauteed onions and peppers, grilled shrimp and covered in queso. It comes with all the usual fixings, rice, refried beans, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, lettuce and 3 flour tortillas. The chicken and the shrimp were excellently flavored and prepared just right. So often you get rubbery shrimp, not here though. And so much food too. You will need a box for leftovers here. read more

We went when it was busy. I took this into consideration, but our server acted like she didn't know what she was doing. Did not check on us, and alcoholic beverages came after meal was delivered. They also charge gratuity on tables over 4 and up, which as a server I have never seen anywhere. This was not disclosed to us and was not on the bill. They use the machines to pay at the table, so my total came up but that was not on there. Then it asks for a tip option again. Once I asked for a receipt, I saw the gratuity added. Should be told to customers. read more

I literally ordered and in 3 minutes she came out with the food so needless to say nothing was hot. Maybe lukewarm. I put 30 minutes on the meter and used 10 minutes it took me longer to pick out what I wanted to order on the menu. The steak burrito was very disappointing. I asked for no beans. They stuffed the burrito with lots of lettuce. The steak wasn't seasoned at all. Quite a disappointing lunch venture for me. I won't be going back. read more
