First of all, I always pass this restaurant in downtown. It's near the river but I never tried it till today. Delicious across all boards. They have mastered and perfected their drinks menu, the margaritas were extremely good, dare I say one of the best cocktails I've had in Reno. As for the food, paella was very tasty! 10/10. I will b revisiting. Ambience was very calm read more

I came here for happy hour (3-6 pm) and didn't want to leave! It's one of my new favorite spots. If you like Mexcal and La Condesa, you have to check this one out. All the margaritas on happy hour were great. I also tried the Toro Bravo (watermelon), Chapo Lo-era (prickly pear) and El Malo (Mezcal). We got the papas bravas to start since all employees recommended it them. They were not spicy but very delicious. The sauce on them was a smoked jalapeño aioli. The guacamole was good too and very shareable sizes. We then shared the quesabirrias, vegan ceviche and the prime asada tostaditas. Hands down the best choice was the quesabirria. We even ordered another round. Everything is about $9 on the menu which is well worth the quality and portions. The restaurant is very cute with views of the river. Great vibes! The staff was very attentive and nice. I plan on coming back for more happy hours. read more

I was really pleased with my visit to Toro Bravo. We tried a variety of items on the menu: guacamole, chorizo requesón, pork shank, tostada de arrachera, chicken empanadas, cilantro rice, and short ribs. Everything met or exceeded my expectations. The standout dishes for me were the chorizo requesón, cilantro rice, short ribs, and pork shank--each was flavorful and well-executed. The guacamole and tostada were solid and had the classic flavors you'd expect. My toddler especially loved the cilantro rice, tortilla chips, chorizo requesón, and short ribs, which was a big win. The staff were attentive, friendly, and very accommodating. We originally asked to sit outside, but when it got windy, they quickly moved us inside without any hassle. The restaurant also offers open outdoor seating, which is a nice option if you want to enjoy the view on a calmer day. read more

Admittedly, this review is insaaanely overdue because I forgot to check-in which was a rookie mistake. I visited Reno in August of 2025 and we came here for a team dinner that was spectacular! Toro Bravo is in a lovely part of Reno right along a small canal type body of water with other fun local businesses nearby. Stepping inside from the summer heat was very welcoming with dim lighting and generous AC. The vibes in here definitely scream date night but it was also great for our group of colleagues for a fun team dinner before a long day of work. We ordered a myriad of dishes for the table to try and pretty much all of them were a standout. Blue Corn Bread - this was a table favorite, easily. A light and delicious corn bread doused in hot honey and orange butter, this had so much flavor. And I'm not normally one for sweet dishes, but the hot honey was the perfect balance that had me going back for more. Papas Bravas - absolutely delicious and that jalapeno aioli was on point! Creamy Cilantro Rice - I'm a sucker for cilantro and this was the perfect side dish to compliment the rest of everything that we had. 10/10! Roasted Octopus - This was either my first or second experience with octopus and I was truthfully a little worried. My biggest qualm was how the texture was going to be but I was pleasantly surprised at how well this was executed. I actually kept going back for more bites! Paella - Last but not least, their paella was the perfect hearty main dish for us to split amongst the group. The depth of flavor was perfect and everything tasted fresh and of great quality. I'm not in Reno very often but I would 100% return to Toro Bravo in the future! read more

We have been wanting to come here! The Ceviche MIXTO was so fresh and tasty, octopus, fish, shrimp., sooo good and the empanadas de mariscos was amazing as well, the drinks... El Fashionista with Mexican ancestral corn whiskey and with Frey Ranch Distillery bourbon.. Yummm. Everything fresh and staff was very attentive. read more

My first visit here and it won't be my last! This is one of those great restaurants that make me worry if they are not busy. I had a terrific dish - sometimes it really pays to try something new - eggs, chorizo, potatoes, and other yummy things. (I miss the days when I could read about a menu item and remember the details!) Wonderful staff & service, amazing food, great beverages, very nice. I can't wait till it's nice enough to eat outside with the river view. read more

Toro Bravo - I think it's called Tortilla Espanol but I can't find the lunch menu online. - Steakhouses Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Was pretty anxious to try Toro Bravo and finally checked it out with some great foodie friends of mine. Heard a lot of mixed reviews but the online menu was intriguing and I thought the happy hour menu sounded fun. I had heard their ceviche was on point and the online photos looked legit. We were seated at probably my least likely to chose that table choice... oh well. We probably could have asked for a better table but I hate to start off being disappointed and making special requests so we politely sat at the table offered. It was immediately adjacent to the receiving end of the bar that servers pick up their orders and I just felt in the way. Our waitress wanted our orders yesterday however, having never been, I wanted time enough to peruse the menu. She dropped some tortillla chips and a couple very tasty salsas but no plates. We waited and waited and finally got her attention. The service was mediocre and I hate to feel like I'm trying to flag down a taxi in NYC to get simple requests responded to but that's kinda how it felt throughout the meal. We ordered a couple different ceviches and they were beautiful and well portioned. The Mixto ceviche lacked a little. Could have definitely benefited having more octopus. I found two small pieces. Nice sauce in both the fish ceviche and the mixed ceviche. One green sauced, one red sauced. Very pretty presentation for both. The happy hour tacos were tasty but not remarkable and the dish I was most anxious to try was the biggest disappointment for me. The Quesabirrias and consommé lacked the familiar flavor I'm used to and the crusty cheese exterior was missing entirely. Ennui..... The dessert menu looked amazing and we just wanted a nibble of something sweet so decided to just share one between 3 of us. The churro cake is to die for! Yay for dessert!!! read more

Antonio was our server and was a doll! He was super friendly and accommodating! We were thrown off by seeing double! My girlfriends and I had a great time and so glad we got together at Toro Bravo. The service was phenomenal and we loved the ambiance. It's a Mexican steakhouse, so we weren't sure what to expect, but it is was what we expected from the ambiance of any traditional steakhouse. We were celebrating a birthday and did our small gift exchange. We skipped out on appetizers since we were snacking on tostadas and salsa with our cocktails. We were excited about the drinks. I tried El Chapo Lo-era their prickly pear margarita and later tried Angel de humo- their pineapple infused mezcal with tajin on the rim. I don't know that I would order the prickly pear cocktail on my next trip back here, but the pineapple mezcal is a no brainer for next time. The girls ordered martinis and a variety of cocktails the three hours we were here. I ordered the short ribs and a tostada. The short ribs were super tender and it was a great recommendation. My friends ordered the paella, a skirt steak, tostadas, lamb shank, and pork shank. We also ordered brussel sprouts and potatoes au gratin for the table. We tried each other's entrées and still had leftovers. Everything was delicious and we had a blast here. I hope this newer local business is here for a long time. I can't wait to come back for dinner and to try their happy hour! Thank you Antonio for the hospitality. read more

We stopped by this place for Happy Hour. We decided to park at the Eldorado for free and then walk over a few blocks, rather than paying for street parking. It wasn't too busy on a Wednesday afternoon, but I made a reservation just in case. It was very easy to do with Yelp. We ordered the Papas Bravas, Oven Roasted Cauliflower, Charred Brussels Sprouts, Street Tacos, Prime Asada Tostaditas, and Quesabirrias. For drinks, we ordered the Toro Bravo, Paloma Mia, Sangre Del Toro, and Flor De Amor. The drinks came out pretty fast, same with the food. Drinks tasted pretty good, and they were $9 each - everything on the Happy Hour menu was $9 each. I enjoyed the Flor De Amor. The food was okay for me. Out of everything, I liked the taste of the brussels sprouts, papas bravas, and quesabirria. The street tacos and the tostada were okay. The meat didn't have much flavor? And it was hard to chew one of the pieces; I had to spit it out after chewing for a few minutes. Overall, it wasn't too bad of an experience, but there are better Happy Hours out there. read more

It's upscale dining but still has a nice refined casual setting. My company took us to Toro Bravo for our team building. The quality of the tortillas chips were delicious. Their sauces were tasty and smooth. What stood out were their papas bravas, very delicious, their beans side dish was great, and gambas al ajillo were flavorful. The arrachera steak was delicious loved the grilled onions , and the paella is very seafood forward and subtle. The seafood empanadas were nice, I feel like a nice sauce or chimichurri or vinaigrette would benefit them. The ceviche with leche de Tigre, mild in flavor but fresh-good quality fish. Their risotto stood out. Their drinks were refreshing and I enjoyed the strawberry margarita the best. read more

I've been three times now, once for brunch, once for happy hour, and once for dinner (The full gamut!). First time was dinner, and within the first month of opening. One of the dishes was good, and one kind of fell flat (beet salad). It felt disjointed like it was two halves of two different dishes. I'm willing to call it a new menu issue, and use my more recent experiences for rating in this review. When I went for brunch I got a chicken Birra taco and liked it a lot. I'm trying to cut-out red meat, so having chicken as an option is appreciated! Also getting to hang out on the patio looking out on the river was great. Finally I just recently went for happy hour, and I can say that like it's kindred restaurant La Condessa it has an awesome happy hour. A little on the pricey side, but the quality, and options mean that it's still a great deal. Also it runs until 3-6pm mon-thur, which makes it even better. Too many happy hour places end at 5pm, making it hard for me to make it on time due to me slightly long commute. Our server was borrowed from one of the other restaurants, but other than being a little unfamiliar with the menu he gave great service. Overall Toro Bravo is a great little spot downtown that I will be looking forward to revisiting. read more

First visit and will definitely return. The staff was very nice and patient with us as we contemplated on what items we should order. He was helpful in offering some recommendations, and they did not disappoint. There were four of us, so we opted to try different items to share. The ceviches we tried were delicious, and easily shareable as an appetizer. The NY steak and pibil were the perfect combination with the frijoles charros and paella. If you'll be having dessert, the churro cake is a must try. The watermelon margarita is refreshing and the perfect balance of sweetness. read more

Chips only 1/5 - sad!! Service - not great either, 2/5 stars Food 4/5 This place has been on my list since I found out about it. We visited on a quiet weeknight and had a reservation. We were seated at a table in the front...literally the only couple in our area. There seemed to be a more intimate booth option further into the restaurant but we weren't offered that. We asked about mocktails and were told that they can do any cocktails as mocktails. Lame. I want a specially curated mocktail, not a sloppy rendition of a cocktail sans alcohol. We were served two different salsas with chips. The chips were so regrettable - hard, cold, tasteless. We ordered the queso and beef empanadas to start. The queso had amazing flavor but was a bit congealed once it made its way to us. The empanadas were fresh but kind of bland tasting without the aid of the salsa. The menu was perplexing...the top of the entrees stated "to taco or not to taco" but didn't go on to describe what would be included to take the entree to taco status. We asked our server and she said simply that it's served with flour or corn tortillas. Maybe best to just say that on the menu?? We opted for short ribs with flour tortillas. Tortillas were fresh and warm and meat was tender and flavorful but fatty in spots. Overall not a great showing. Our service was minimal at best. Probably try somewhere else downtown next time. read more

S&*t happens. I get that. Its not how you fall but how you rise. On this evening I ordered the Beef Short Ribs on the recommendation of our friend. The dish was presented beautifully with a generous portion of beef as the center piece. Unfortunately, on this evening this particular cut of beef was exceptionally tough and virtually impossible to eat. We called over the waitress, explaining the situation. She apologized profusely offering alternatives on how they could "make it right". I opted to replace the Short Ribs with the Skirt Steak. Which was perfect. I ordered the Skirt Steak as my replacement order as it was what my wife ordered and frankly it looked amazing. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection, buttery, flavorful and delicious. I don't often comment about the tortillas that come with a meal, but the tortillas provided by Toro Bravo were next level. A touch thicker than your mass produced variety, their tortillas were just perfection. We ordered the creamy cilantro rice. Beautifully presented, I have to admit this was much better than I was expecting. Rich and flavorful. A perfect accompaniment to our mains. Our friend ordered the Paella, a spanish classic. Served with a bounty of seafood (calimari, shrimp, mussels, pieces of fresh fish), served over a bed of seasoned rice. Perfect execution. While the evening started a bit rough, Toro Bravo did everything in their power to make it right. A wonderful restaurant, situated on the riverfront next to the Truckee River, Toro Bravo is a perfect place to experience "up scale" hispanic cuisine. Bien hecho. read more

Came for a bday late lunch/early dinner after playing some Bingo nearby. A friend asked me to pick a spot and I have had my eye on Toro Bravo for a long time now. The menu displayed both breakfast and lunch offerings. I think two of us ordered breakfast type options whereas the other party ordered lunch. The portions were huge, everything looked wonderful. I went with the Breakfast Enchiladas which were perfect. Just a little kick. The table also ordered, chips with three different types of salsas. We ordered a churro cake for dessert and the staff were sweet and came out to sing happy birthday. I really enjoyed the aesthetics of the restaurant and would love to come back for happy hour or dinner. read more

Bravo, Toro Bravo! I absolutely loved La Condesa the last time I was in Reno and so when I mentioned it to a local friend, he recommended Toro Bravo for our group dinner. And wow, I didn't think I could be blown away a second time by the same owners, but Toro Bravo exceeded my expectations. Our group ordered the following to share: Papas bravas $12 Ceviche mixto $28 Blue corn bread $13 Creamy cilantro rice $12 Charcoal roasted Spanish octopus $44 Seafood paella $47 Charred Brussels sprouts $16 Churro cake $14 Pineapple bread pudding $14 This was definitely one of my favorite meals recently if not, to date! Everything was excellent, from the cocktails and apps to the entrees and dessert. I loved the octopus at La Condesa and loved Toro Bravo's just as much. Another group favorite was the blue corn bread. We had to order a second one! The service was wonderful; the staff was quick and attentive. We dined there back in August, and honestly, I still find myself thinking about this amazing meal! read more

Went last night before a Nevada game and was pleasantly surprised to find they had a happy hour menu! We had a table of nine, and the service was quick, attentive, and friendly. The margaritas were delicious and definitely hit the spot. My favorite dish was the papas bravas -- perfectly crispy with a sauce that had just the right amount of spice. I also tried the quesabirrias, which were incredibly tasty. We ordered the Brussels sprouts as well, and they came out nice and crispy. Can't wait to come back when we have more time to try even more items on the menu! read more

I like the location of Toro Bravo. It is situated by the Truckee River on Sierra St. It has a very accommodating atmosphere with friendly helpful staff staff. Toro Bravo has taken Mexican cuisine to a new level. It appears to me their ranking amongst Reno's best restaurants is around the corner. The menu, in my opinion, needs to be expanded to include more Mexican inspired side dishes. The wine list is short and, not surprising, has mostly unfamiliar foreign wines. Perhaps this may be attributed to growing pains. The food is excellent, a tribute to their well trained chefs. I had a a very generous piece of beef called "Picaña' (I believe that is spelled properly). I ordered it medium rare and medium rare it was. The meat was thick, with bits of buttery fat mostly at the ends. It was delectable, grilled to perfection situated on top of scrumptious potatoes. The side of creamy cilantro rice with bits of a mellow cheese was the best I have ever had. I also had the house made corn tortillas. Prior to our meal one of the employees brought us a bowlful of toasted small corn tortillas a green and a red salsa. Both salsa were not very spicy but they were gourmet quality - strained and a velvety smooth texture. All this and a recommendation by the manager for a 2022 bottle of Frog's Leap, Zinfandel. Step by step, day by day, Toro Bravos is being recognized for their excellence in service and their excellence in contributing to the Northern Nevada culinary experience. Plenty of parking in the city parking lot. Recommend reservations. $$$-$$$$. read more

My boyfriend loves Mexican food and really wanted to try Toro Bravo. We came in on a random evening without a reservation and they were quite busy. It was a 20 minute wait, but they got us a table no more than 5 minute wait. They recommended us to go wait at a coffee shop also owned by the owner, but we just waited at Toro Bravo since it was cold outside. Once we were seated, our server, Jesus, was with the table next to us. Another person got us our menus. After about 10 minutes, our server came to greet us and got drink orders. We ordered the following: - Ceviche Mixto: This was amazing! One of the best ceviche's I have ever had. The fish was fresh, and I loved how all the flavors blended together so well with the tortilla chips. 5/5 - Tamal de Camaron: This is a very unique take on a tamale. The corn rice inside was delicious and I loved the creaminess of the shrimp on top. Definitely recommend everyone to try this as well. 5/5 - Paella: There was a good amount of seafood that comes out on a very big pan. The rice was much drier than I expected, but the seasoning was good. It came with a choice of corn or flour tortillas. 2/5 - Ancho Chile Rubbed Prime New York Steak: The steak was precut and perfectly cooked to a medium rare. The dry rub had heat, but was not overpowering. The pickled onions complemented the steak very well. 5/5 - Churro Cake: This was recommended by our server. It was good to close out the meal with. There was a scoop of ice cream and caramel drizzled on top of the cake. 4/5 I enjoyed the full course meal and how they timed everything to come out one after the other. I am just disappointed in the paella, and hopefully it is not typically that dry. The interior is very classy and seems like it was well thought out when designed. The lighting at each table gave a very warm feeling to the atmosphere. Our server was very busy all night and still checked in with us to make sure everything was good. My boyfriend asked him where he got his black slacks from and he was happy to share, and even wrote down the whiskeys used in his drink. However, I did notice that our waters never got refilled and other tables had a big bottle of water. Otherwise, the service is top notch and definitely would come again! read more

Uhhh yeah. Thats a FIVE from me y'all. This is the type of dining Reno has been craving for so long and I couldn't think of two better chef/owners to make this one a reality. If you're coming to TB, come hungry y and bring your crew because this menu is meant for sharing and two people just ain't enough. Personal recommendation 6+ for maximum fun. Start with a cocktail and make it agave. I enjoyed a spicy pineapple Mezcal cocktail and it was delightful, with the perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy kick. There were at least two other drinks that spoke to me and friends of the table ordered those so I was fortunately able to try them myself, and they were delightful as well. On the food front if it sounds good, simply order it and if it sounds less interesting to you order it also because it's probably going to prove you wrong when it arrives. We sampled so much and all of it slapped. Halibut ceviche, the blue cornbread, prime New York cooked to a wonderful medium rare, papas bravas, paella, and octopus, all devoured and some duplicated because they were so damn delicious. We then had the beans! These are a MUST and ridiculously good! I know. Trust me! The potato gratin was also a superb version of this dish too and a nice way to have potatoes at this restaurant. Atmosphere is sultry and modern, but warm and cozy too. Service is friendly and well informed, and a wonderful part of the experience here. I can't wait to return! Need to get a group together! read more

Wanted to check out Toro Bravo this past year but haven't had a chance. Glad I was able to come through with some friends. I hope this place makes it in the long run. Service was great, the waitress explained the menu and the drinks. Had the Cadillac margarita and the El Inferno, both were great drinks. For apps, got the corn bread, which I thought it was just ok. Also got the papas and the ceviche, both were good and would get again. For the main, had to get Ancho NY Steak, it was delicious and cooked perfectly medium rare. For the sides, got the cheesy potatoes and the rice. Both were great. My friends got the fresh catch of the day, which was salmon and they loved it. Great experience.

If you want to experience Michelin level molecular gastronomy with a view of the river this is your place! The combination of two of the top Latin inspired restaurants is amazing. The service we had during lunch was legendary, it was perfect. Every single appetizer and entrée was 12/10. The plating along with the taste, whether they were sweet or savory. The Asada tostada was the king of the show. So many different flavors and packed with enough meat to fill up a big back guy like me. It really should be shared with two people. I took it down in one seating out of respect as I did not want to take it home and experience it later. It was all about now. Blue cornbread was delicious. Both of us thoroughly enjoyed it. Birria tacos were excellent, but the consume is where the magic was happening. This is another meal that might feed two people. The Shrimp Tamal is not just pretty, but is bursting with exotic flavors that dance around your tongue. A real treat! read more

River views, indoor or out. Beautiful indoor space highlighting the bright red toro (bull). Pleasant greeting to confirm our reservation. I strongly recommend reservations. Made ours from Yelp! Very nice drink selections. We chose a Malbec. Paired well with the skirt steak and filet we chose. But first we enjoyed chorizo with garlic ricotta and salsa. Least I forget the flour tortillas, 4-5 inches across and freshly made. I literally could do an extensive 5 star review on the tortillas alone. Tasty Brocheta filet on the skewer with onions. The rub was red, spicy and enhanced the flavor so much. Her skirt steak was perfectly tender. On the side we shared the huge Caesar salad with chicharron croutons. Seriously share this or make it your entire meal, it's large. Then charred brussel sprouts, again a serving for two or more. We skipped dessert being too full and satisfied. Our server was helpful and attentive. This is upscale in all aspects, decor, service and food. You will enjoy the experience. read more

Toro Bravo is an upscale restaurant located downtown on the Truckee River Walk and has both inside and outside patio dining overlooking the river as it flows through downtown. My visit was for dinner earlier this week and I took advantage of the weather and view to sit outside, I ordered the Empanadas de Mariscos for $18. The three warm seafood empanadas arrived shortly thereafter and were delicious especially with the supplied salsa crema to pour over. The salsa wasn't hot but added a nice touch spooned onto the empanadas. This is listed as an appetizer dish and not being too hungry was enough to satisfy me. Table service was good too.

Lunch on a Sunday and after reading all of the great reviews and loving La Condesa, I was a bit disappointed.

Ate at the bar and had El Fashionista cocktail along with the skirt steak. Both were great. Service was great.

Toro Bravo was nothing short of amazing. We chose this spot for a Friday night girls' outing, and it turned out to be the perfect pick. The restaurant has a modern, upscale Latin vibe that feels lively and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The service was just as impressive as the ambiance. Our main server, Jose, was attentive, professional, and had a sense of humor. He really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, and that kind of service never goes unnoticed. I'll admit, my first glance at the menu didn't immediately pull me in. It wasn't bad, just different from what I expected. But after giving it another look, I decided to try the Queso Asado al Horno, the Niman Lamb Shank, and the charred Brussels sprouts. And wow, 10s across the board. Everything was exquisitely delicious. The queso was chunky, warm, and perfectly gooey. The lamb shank was incredibly flavorful and so tender it practically melted the moment it hit your mouth. I'm honestly impressed it stayed on the bone long enough to reach the table. The Brussels sprouts were beautifully charred with the perfect balance of crisp edges and softer leaves, creating a great texture in every bite. Between the four of us sharing dishes, it quickly became clear that every plate was thoughtfully prepared and packed with fresh, vibrant flavor. I would come back here a thousand times over. The combination of great ambiance, standout food, and genuinely professional service is rare to find and Toro Bravo delivers. read more

Came here for a date night and was able to be seated right away. We sat inside but they gave a great patio when the weather is nice. They also have a bar if you just want to come in for a drink. Waitress was super kind and thoughtful. Respected the fact that we are slow diners (we like to take our time and linger). Recommended great cocktails. The short rib with the mole sauce and the shrimp tamale appetizer were the best things we enjoyed! Skip the paella--it's okay, but not amazing. There are plenty of other tasty things! Definitely on the more expensive side, but good for a special occasion. read more
