Toro in Cabo was awesome -- great vibe, amazing food, and super friendly service. The tuna chicharron and short ribs were my favorites, and the cocktails were spot on. Definitely worth a visit!
One of the best meals I've had since being in Cabo! A friend recommended and she didn't tell not one lie. Starting off with the ceviche basically told us how the big hurt would go. Each dish got better and better! Ordered everything we had. Also note that the service wasn't pushy. They let us enjoy our food and didn't harass us to keep spending money like some other camp restaurants.
Our first time at Toro and everything about this place was amazing! Excellent service and ambiance. Our server Francisco was great and so helpful with deciding what to order. He made our experience very memorable. The food was so flavorful! And the bread and dip was to die for!! We can't wait to come back during our next trip to Cabo!
We had a truly excellent evening here! We just got back from there and are still talking about it. The setting is stunning...very nice decor starting with the grand entrance. The service was on point and everything we ordered was delicious. My favorites...ribeye, empanada, lomo saltado and the churros! Highly recommend it if you are in the area.
Amazing Caesar Salad! Wonderful service. Great atmosphere! The good was incredible. Even the bread and spread were fantastic!
My recommendation - Book a reservation and go and enjoy and amazing dining experience! If you need more info, read on. We visit Cabo San Lucas one or twice a year. The only mandatory item on our itinerary is dinner at Toro, the exception this time is we dined at Toro twice during our one week stay. The experience, the service and the food are always amazing. The cuisine is a fusion of Japanese and Mexican, add to that the Executive Chef is from Peru, and you get an amazing menu. The ambiance is wonderful, understated, simple, natural, and yet elegant. You arrive to a long stairway lined with candles. When you enter you are greeted and welcomed in. The main dining room has very high ceiling; the walls are lined with simple pottery that is artfully lit. The exhibition kitchen is on one side and the bar and sushi bar is in the middle. Beyond that is a patio with a whale tail fountain. We always request to sit outside. There are individual lights on the tables and heaters when needed. The service is always top notch. On our first visit Ruffo was our server. He was friendly, charming, and very accommodating. We told him we wanted to start with a cocktail and wanted to take our time and enjoy our evening. He was very respectful of our request and timed our food expertly. He was always available but never pushy. The whole staff works as a team, and your needs are always attended too quickly. On our second visit, Jesus was our server. Quite different from Ruffo, Jesus was part server and part entertainer. We very much enjoyed his service as well. They have a great specialty cocktail menu. I had a Manhattan, and it was presented with a single large ice cube and Italian cherries. Nice touches! The Food: We started with appetizers. The first round was "Humita" Empanadas and "Loma Saltado" Empanadas. They are served two to an order. Ruffo asked the kitchen to cut them for us, so they were easy to share. He announced when he served them that he would order the rest of our appetizers when we finished the empanadas. Nice that he was so in tuned to our request. Both were delicious. My favorite was the Humita, filled with yellow corn, cheese, and spices. Our second round of appetizers was the Short Rib Tacos and the Acevichado Roll. I am not a fan of sushi rolls or seafood, but this roll was amazing! The short rib tacos come three to an order, since there were four of us, Ruffo had a fourth added to the order. The tacos are very good. I could eat them and an entrée, Entress: Four servers approached our table with our entrees. All our dishes were presented all at the same time. Again, top notch service! We tried the Shrimp and Crab Enchiladas - great presentation and delicious. Cusco Style Chicken - perfectly cooked with a wonderful sauce. Catch of the Day - Seabass with a grilled stuff avocado and wonderful sauce to accompany it. The fourth entrée was the fish tacos from the appetizer menu, they were excellent. Alas after a few hours of great food and service where we done! And no room left for dessert. So, we had to make a second visit. On visit two we had all the same appetizers, but we order two of the Acevichado Roll this time, and we also added the Asian Vegetables Smoked with "Chaufa" Rice. Oh My God! This is what would appear to be a simple rice dish, but it was truly amazing. I could have ordered two order and made that my entrée. For dessert we ordered the churros and chocolate cake. The churros come with four dipping sauces and hot chocolate. The chocolate cake was moist and topped with mousse and ganache. Valet parking is provided. From the minute we walked in, until the moment we left, we enjoyed our time at Toro. It is rare that a restaurant can maintain such high standards over many years. We have taken many friends with us to Toro and recommended it to many others, all have raved about their experience as well. Did you book your reservation yet?
Loved their creative asian latin fusion menu. The menu is designed to be shared, so it's easy to try a lot of different types of flavors. My favorite was by far the empanadas which had a flaky crisp and buttery exterior. Service, like many restaurants in cabo was excellent. The staff was very attentive, helpful, and knowledgable about the menu. They were also very accommodating to add more vegetarian options like variants of their sushi (though there's already several options). Ambiance deserves a separate mention because it is amazing. A fire pit in the middle with couch seating surrounding it, a waterfall with whale statues, and large palm trees comprise the impressive outdoor space. I'd definitely recommend eating outside instead of indoor (which is nice too, but not as nice). It's a perfect romantic spot but also good for groups. It's nearby monuments beach which has a fantastic view so you can stop by there after as well. Will definitely visit again!
What incredible meals. First off, the patio is so stunning. They have amazing music, the lighting is gorgeous and moody, and the restaurant itself is so impressive. Service is top notch and very attentive, The food was so memorable - unique and delicious. I tried the beet salad which was really fresh and lovely. Had a wonderful crudo with roe that was deliciously acidic and fresh. Both rolls, one the more with more Peruvian flair, and the salmon were amazing. I would say the aburi salmon was the winner of the two, but it was close! We also had big plates of jamon that were delicious, and I had really unique margaritas with delicious black rock salt and a nice kick! Absolute gem of a place, and convenient if you're staying on the resort. Excellent restaurant.
When I'm in an all-inclusive resort, I generally do not want to leave since everything is covered. When it's a joint bachelorette party and the brides want to go off resort to a restaurant, you go. Toro was a delight. Thank goodness. The décor and art of the restaurant was beautiful. The food was excellent and since we had so many girls in our party, we got to try a lot of things! I will call out the standouts. The Mercado Margarita ( I think it was passionfruit?) was incredible. So refreshing and light at the same time. We spent a fortune on these because we kept ordering more. The Poblano soup. Holy cow. So flavorful and so freaking delicious. I will not forget that soup. Ever. Other items I recommend are the shrimp enchiladas, the Lobster roll, the Yellow Ceviche. Service was excellent. They were definitely on top of it. 10/10 recommend! If you're going to dine somewhere off resort, this is where it's at!
Beautiful restaurant. Attentive staff. The music was a little loud but the vibe was nice. Limited summer menu but everything we ordered was delicious. The complimentary bread, ceviche, fish tacos, and churros were all fresh. I was slightly disappointed that the menu on their website wasn't up to date, specifically the lomo saltado wasn't offered during the summer months. Overall would recommend.
Toro was by far the best restaurant we encountered in Cabo. The staff were amazing, the ambience was incredible, and the food was to die for. The sushi roll was the best roll I've ever had in my life and I will crave it to the grave. 10/10!
Service: 20/10 Food: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10 We've stayed at Esperanza multiple times and had no idea that this restaurant was literally right outside of the property. As Esperanza has a limited number of restaurants on property, we were excited to try Toro - and it did not disappoint! We were able to grab a last minute reservation and sat at the bar. Our waiter was friendly and the service was amazing. Food was inventive and delicious! My husband and I tried a variety of dishes to share and left very happy. Great wine selection as well! I don't drink hard alcohol, but their selection looked wonderful for those who do. Definitely worth a try! We will be returning next time we are in Cabo.
Toro is located at the Esperanza Resort and nearby is Cocina Del Mar, another must visit restaurant. Hit both in 2 nights and you won't be disappointed. Culinary genius is a great definition. Unique menu with outstanding presentation and flavors that will take you out of this world and back. The property and restaurant is very sexy. The staff is amazing, helpful and kind. The menu is pricy but most places in Cabo with a full experience of hand crafted cocktails, starters, main meals and desserts will run up your tab. The only difference is, this place is worth it. The small details matter and the flavors sneak up and make you say, hmmm, that's good. I will say less and expect that you Will come and visit. read more
What are an amazing restaurant this is! From the moment you walk up, you know you have entered a special place. The entrance is grand with a long stairway leading you to the front door. Once you get to the front door you are greeted by the hostess where you walk through a short hallway to the main bar area that is surrounded by shelves filled with pottery. The interiors are stunning!! We were seated in their outdoor patio area, which is absolutely beautiful. This area has a cozy fire pit area for lounging and hanging out with friends and is surrounded by small tables for romantic dinners or larger tables for groups. Either way it is romantic and the backdrop is a spectacular fountain with 3 whale tails as sculptures! The music is clubby and fun! Tonight our sever was Thomas and he was so good! He greeted us shortly after we sat down and got our drink orders. . He also told us at this point all the specials for the night. He gave us time to think over our choices and came back with the cocktails to get our orders. Then he coursed out everything perfectly. We started with tonights special of Toro and added Hamachi off the menu. Those were spectacular not only in presentation but taste! and the fish extremely fresh! Three of the four of us had a shrimp and crab enchiladas, all the other had the grilled chicken. All the portions were perfect and very flavorful! Overall, everything about this restaurant was spectacular including the two cats that wander through the restaurant. They only come over if you invite them, and they are adorable. I'm not sure if they're there all the time but they were there tonight. read more

This is my favorite restaurant of my entire trip. From the decor to the appetizer to the service at the end of the night everything was five star. The host, the servers, the entire staff were so nice and helpful at every and any moment. I highly recommend to make a reservation because this is a very trendy spot. Food: everything we ordered was well done and delicious. No one had any complaints of their food or drinks. The guests that attend this restaurant were also very nice and polite. Sushi and entrees were delicious. I recommend the lomo saltado and all the sushi rolls available. Unfortunately I do not have photos of the sushi because it was so good I forgot to take a picture lol read more
Above and beyond on excellent service and ambiance. To start you can bring 2 bottles of wine in for a recording fee which was great. We started off with amazing, delicious homemade bread followed by wine and excellent food. No dessert because we were stuffed. Definitely a place to visit for an excellent meal and experience. read more

The restaurant is located on the Esperanza Resort property. If you are in the mood for top notch sushi, steak, tacos, salads, fresh quality vegetables than this is the place. There is options for vegetarians and carnivores. Perfect for a group that can't agree on any one type of food. They have a good mix of Mexican, Japanese, and American food. Good for large parties as well as for a nice couple dining. The ambiance is fancy, however dress code is up to you. Service is good. Expect to pay US prices equivalent to other fancy 5 star restaurants. read more

This restaurant is absolutely amazing! A must visit of you are in Cabo. The short rib tacos and shrimp bao buns were two of the best dishes I've ever had! The seafood enchiladas and zareando fish are so fresh and full of flavor. With every dish the bar never dropped I can tell the employees and chefs put a lot of effort into making this a great dining experience. Waiters are very polite and attentive. Sit on the patio for a gorgeous view of the ocean and desert and you may even see fireworks! Haven't enjoyed a place so much in a while I will be back. read more
Upscale fancy sit down restaurant I found to be a bit of lack luster in taste. While toro is good it did not have the bam factor. If you want to go and be seen and pay $20-30 USD for an appetizer then go for it. Short rib taco... I can do better. Lacked the short rib fat and while tender it was not the bomb. Sushi was fresh and had much of the quality ingredients but 2 differing rolls I've had tasted identical. Empanadas was greasy and not crispy. Overall $170 for 2 people and was regretful. read more

You NEED to eat here if you're visiting Cabo. The service is always amazing & the food I can't even put into words!!!! The most perfect ambiance, everything is so pretty! Even ran into a warriors basketball player here! Recommend this spot 100000x!! read more
A really New Year's Eve dinner... started early but end super fun. So my first review of 2021 is here. A beautiful spot at the Esperanza but doesn't feel like a hotel restaurant at all. Bug patio with fire pit and blankets, needed them both last night! Ruffo took care of it all. Small plates and great cocktails! An octopus tostada to start with Pisco Sours, dragon tool and empanadas second.. loved them both! The short rib tacos were heaven and thank you Yelpers for that recco! A nice bottle of Mexican Chardonnay and on to churros server with hot chocolate! Prices are LA ish and it feels like the same vibe you'd get in and big city. But it was NYE so go big or stay home. Great CoVid protocol and good use of space to keep us safe! read more

My favorite meal while in Cabo! We shared the short rib tacos, lomo saltado empeñada, and Latin potatoes which were all absolutely delicious. Our waiter Jesús was very helpful, attentive, and funny. He even added an extra short rib taco to the order so we could each have two. The ambience was on par with the delicious food. All around 10/10! read more

Toro is one of the most beautiful restaurants in Cabo. The vibe and decor was perfect and made for a great dining experience. The service was fantastic and very professional. The sushi recommendation we had from our waiter was delicious and a nice change of pace from the traditional food in Cabo. Everything we tried was fresh and tasteful. The menu has a lot of variety from great empanadas, beautiful sushi rolls, steaks and delicious crab and shrimp enchiladas to name a few items. Great experience of fine dining. read more
