One of Corona’s older Mexican restaurants serving excellent food, burritos, tacos and other Mexican specialties. This restaurant has a small dinning area with some benches outside. Was here on a taco Tuesday afternoon and it seemed too hot inside so we enjoyed our tacos outside on the benches. The tacos are like home made the best in the area you get 3 tacos for 7.99 which is an excellent deal. There’s plenty of parking. Restrooms are outside and you need to ask for the key. Recommend this establishment for some excellent Mexican dishes.

I was really hoping I’d found a hidden gem. I went based on the reviews on the hard shelled tacos and flautas. I placed my order for 2 tacos and clearly ordered 2 flautas. I ended up with taquitos instead of flautas. I let the cashier know she got my order wrong but she didn’t seem to care enough to correct her mistake. So, I just kept the taquitos and hoped they were good. The taquitos were below average and the guacamole was weak also, no flavor like store bought or fake. One hard shelled taco was shredded beef, but was bland. The ground beef taco was actually tasty. Too bad I wasted calories on this place.

I’m always on the hunt for a good hard shell ground beef taco. And this one here is among some of the best I’ve had. Nice and crispy. The beef felt nice and full. Flavor profiles seasoned well. Cold sliced cheese. Diced tomatoes, and cold lettuce. Great crispy hard shell. I ordered the 3 for 7.99 deal. The other thing missing for me was sour cream. I will be sure to add that next time. The salsa had a great bold flavor as well. Nice indoor space. And it’ll be a must visit for me whenever I’m in corona.

Recommendation: hard shell ground beef tacos

I keep coming here for memory reasons. I used to come here when I was a teenager and now in my sinior years. The food is good but not worth the horrible adettude from staff. I went there to dine in and the tables where dirty, no big deal. I asked the guy in front nicely for a napkin so that I could clean the table myself in wich I had no problem with that at all, I know sometimes they get busy. The man never answered me about the napkin but instead I saw him telling a woman to clean our table. So I saw her coming out with a cloth and started cleaning 2 other durty tables and cleaning the top of the trash rim while walking over to clean our table. As she aproched our table I let her know that I was not confortable with her cleaning my table with the same cloth that she used to clean the other tables and she got upset telling me in a very rude maner that the cloth had clorax on it and that it was ok to use. I told her that I prefered cleaning my table myself if she didn’t mind and she rudly ignored me as she proceeded to clean the table with the dirty cloth while complaining about my request. After she left I ask for a napkin and cleaned my table with alcohol myself. Then later came another lady with the same cloth asking me if I wanted her to clean the table in which I said no but thank you. I also let her know that I had already cleaned it and I mensioned to her nicely that the other woman was very rude, although she wasn’t as rude as the first woman she ignored my comment and walked away. I was in no way rude to anybody there and certainly did not deserve to be treated that way. I could not believe the unesesary rudness and it certainly took me by suprise. It ruined my meal esxperience and I never receaved an apology at all. I saw the rude woman talking to other customers there and perhaps complaining about me, staff kept glancing over to our table in wich was more rude to say the least. People sometimes blow there nose, spit, or just simply leave germs on tables after eating wich is totaly normal but that is why you should always cary a bottle of disinfecting spray and a clean cloth to clean the tables for health reasons and to protect costumers. Very disapointing and concerning healthwise as well as how they think that that type of hossttle rude behavior is exceptable. Food is ok but not worth my money and time. I regret my visit. Hopefuly they wont do it to other costumers for they act very snoby and intittled. They should be greatful and be nicer to their costumers because thanks to them they are in business.

We’ve been doing business here for 28 years & love the food! Unfortunately this will be the last time. All because of a simple mistake and rude employee.
My wife placed our usual order of hard shelled chicken tacos with extra cheese. I picked up the order after practice, got home took a shower and settled down to eat. Unfortunately we got beef instead of chicken. No problem; it’s happened before. Went back to get the correct order because we don’t eat beef. This guy checked the order and insisted my wife ordered beef! He was rude and refused to correct it. I asked if he was the owner & he said no & the owner wasn’t home! He said he didn’t know her phone number and refused to give his name! All over an about $10 bucks! Ok, sadly we won’t be able to support this business anymore over this guy!

After almost 30 years my husband and I went for lunch today and they did not disappoint. The burrelleno tasted just like we remembered it, the taquitos were crunchy with their guacamole and sour cream and the torta de carnitas fresh and delicious! We will need to come back with our daughter and introduce her to a new-old restaurant!
Thank you, Tacos El Torero

Wanted to try a place I haven’t been to in years and remembered liking it back then. Still small and simple. Open air kitchen and it looks clean. Flavor is good and portion is good. Prices have changed though. Two burritos and a soda we $28. But it seems to be things are now everywhere. We will be back.

I would not come back here again. Overall the food was good and the salsa. Even though they only have one type of salsa it was pretty good. But having so many people not only the people that work there but also the customers just staring at you, especially when you notice they were staring at you and you smile at them, some of them just kept staring. Felt so uncomfortable being there. Not much seating. It feels so crowded. Music is loud so had to talk louder which we didn’t like

Food is very good there , when I’m forking and I take a lunch I go there if I’m out towards Corona, the chili con carne and rice is very delicious and so are the tacos I highly recommend to go there.
