El Toro Mexican Cuisine

Apr 7th, 2024

Nice casual dining place within walking distance of hotels, good for anyone who's done spending their day sitting in a car and wants a bit of ambiance. Food was good, perhaps a bit heavy but this is the midwest after all :) Service was very spotty though, I wound up getting my drink after everyone else at my table. After a small table next to us who arrived later got their drinks, after our entrees arrived and I asked the second member of the wait staff who brought those to *make sure* my sprite was on the way. All the staff was friendly, for what that's worth. I figured I'd sleep on it before before deciding whether or not to leave a review but yeah, I still feel like that was conspicuously bad service.

We stopped here for a late lunch today and had a great experience. The food was very good, the service was outstanding, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. Our server was fantastic and I wish I'd gotten his name so I could praise him here. Prices are reasonable, and in-line with similar restaurants. I actually expected the prices to be much higher, considering the location. I had the tamale dinner, which came with two generously-sized chicken tamales, rice and beans. It was all delicious, and the tamales were outstanding. I think my meal was around $12. I'd be happy to eat here again. Parking: Parking is not an issue. Plenty of parking here. Wheelchair accessibility: While I don't use a wheelchair, I saw nothing that would prevent wheelchair accessibility. The entry is large and clear of obstacles, and the restaurant has both tables and booths.
