The Toros

I decided to pop into El Toro in Brownsburg after my workout for some choripollo and was not…read moredisappointed! As I walked in around 6 p.m., it was pretty quiet (Monday night). As I placed my order, people began to trickle in. The dining area was open and spacious. There is plenty of room for a big party (two birthday parties going on with this trip), a cozy booth for two, or a cozy booth for just me! The food came out hot, fresh, and fast! They had dinner and drink specials and the staff was very friendly. The chicken was moist and tender topped with their homemade chorizo and smothered in queso. This is my go-to meal, and you can make two meals out of one dish, and I don't mean eat half and take the other half home for another meal, althoughyou could do that. I mean, if you're torn between tacos and nachos, then you can have the best of both worlds. This dish comes with three tortillas, and whatever of the delicious meat and cheese combo is left you can scoop up with the leftover chips you didn't finish as your appetizer. Winner winner, chicken and chorizo dinner! Highly recommend if you are in or around the Burg.

I went with a friend and while the food was good, the service was horrible. So bad in fact, I completely spaced even taken photos of our food. Our service was extremely rude to us but engaged with the other tables she was serving. When I inquired about the drink menu, she was extremely short with me. My friend and I both asked again where and she finally pointed to the spot. The whole time never making eye contact and acting as if we were a bother to her. When she took our order, she was very curt and not helpful at all. When we paid at the front cashier area, the cashier wasn't any better. Again, no greeting - no how was your meal, etc. Oh, and definitely no thank you! In fact, when my friend mentioned that our service was not good, she said "ok" and started talking to the other cashier. Do better!

Great food and wonderful service!

No carside delivery on this trip though, and the mix of ingredients seems to have shifted. My burrito had virtually no lettuce, less avocado, and more bean than before. The menu board pic shows lettuce no longer included with a supreme taco but we didn't order that so I cannot say for sure. We still enjoy the food but hope the balance of ingredients returns. We would rather pay more for balanced entrees than less for a shift to inexpensive ingredients. Down a star for that.

BUT Now it has been a while. and my husband and I have eaten here a total of three times. Some thoughts and the reason why it went from 5 stars to 2. The food is inconsistent. The tamales on the first day we ate here were HUGE. Like two regular tamales put together. The taste was great and we really enjoyed eating here. My husband was raving about the pico. It was delicious too We noticed that it took time to get seated as there was nobody to greet us when we first came in. Hopefully, this improves or has improved. The other two times we ate from here we placed an order on the phone and went to pick it up. The second time we ordered I wanted a tamale so I ordered one tamale thinking it would be the same size as the first time. Nope. It was a small tamale this time and not the one I ordered. I wanted the chili cheese one but got one with chicken instead. Not happy about that or the size. I was still hungry and disappointed. My husband ordered a dish that had pico because he was so happy with it the first time. This time however the onion was cut WAY too large and all the ingredients were different sizes. It was not a pleasant experience and he was also let down. We tried another time to order via phone. This time I knew to order 2 tamales so i can be full after eating. When I bit into my tamale I pulled out a LONG, fine, black hair...... Disgusting! I was totally yucked out and Im not sure we will be going back anytime soon. I know hair happens. But its just... I cant get it out of my mind that I ppilled someones hair from my mouth as I was chewing. *gag I hate that for them. I so much wanted them to do well and succeed because we want delicious, ethnic foods in Lawrence. Tasty tamales are so special and we NEED this here. But these guys need to remember why they started. I bet it was because someone in there loves to cook. But I'd suggest wearing hairnets when making tamales (Even if you are making them at home), cutting your food consistently, and paying closer attention to ensure that folks who order things get what they order. I def didn't want to eat chicken that day. Cheers!

I would not come back here, I feel like there are better places to get tacos and get a better service in Indiana.
