Been coming here with my grandpa since I can remember, and I haven’t been back since he passed away but my fiancé took me here for my birthday and the food is just as amazing as I remember, if not better. And the service was great, Dayana was attentive and sweet. They even sing happy birthday panchita like I remember. Thank you bringing back so many memories at el Torito with him.

The staff was super nice but the food was only okay. The establishment is old and dated and dirty. Also, the area the restaurant is in feels like a deserted wasteland with shady characters all over the parking lot. Such a waste of an amazing area on the water.

My husband brought his entire agency and patients for a banquet style dinner. The food was VERY good and so was the service! We had 33 people and three children. I was so excited to eat here!! I used to visit the San Diego location with my grandma when I was younger. It still taste delicious! I also feel the menu is Very Reasonable and the portions are large. Come for a visit!

Came here for a going away party for a friend. Food is good, water front view is nice, service is okay.
Glad to know they are still in business. They’ve got good deals on drinks and tacos in the cantina section, but we were in the regular dinning area for our party. Still prices are reasonable.
A couple of Mariachi singers we serenading when we first arrived which was lovely, but made it challenging to hold conversations.
Staff is friendly, and things move at a slower pace, which is perfect if you’re looking to hang out a longer a while.
Unfortunately the rugs are worn through in some spots. Hopefully they can be patched or replaced soon.

Perfect place for a summer sundown supper. Our waiter MANUEL serviced in a friendly warm manner. He gave us recommendations, specials, listen how we wanted our order and even tempted us with dessert. Come during the weekdays during sunset for breath taking marina bay views. See you soon again El Torito, thank you!

Had lunch with some friends and it was a superb afternoon. We were greeted with a happy smile as soon as we walked in the door by the host. Our server was just as friendly and delightful. She had a great since of humor and such an awesome personality. I wish I can remember her name, cuz she definitely deserves it. She was always checking on us to make sure we were okay or need anything. Our drinks never got halfway empty. She was a fabulous waitress !!!
The food came out in a timely manner and it was sizzling hot and cooked perfectly. The food was not only tasty, but down right delicious.
While we were eating the manager came over to our table just to say hello and see if he could possibly better our visit. He couldn’t, cuz we were already having the best services ever. Hands down we had the best waitress in the world. I just wish I could remember her name.
The restaurant was very clean. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. Having a view of the bay watching the planes and boats was really nice too while eating lunch. It could even be romantic if you went a night time.
I had a couple cocktails during lunch and they were spot on. Not too much ice and you could definitely taste the alcohol.
I highly recommend coming here for a bite to eat or for a cocktail. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

I love Eltorito. The food was great. The signature fajita is big portion and flavourful. The meat was tender and tasted awesome. Atmosphere is great. Next to the water. Highly recommend.

This place has a nice view but that’s about it, furniture is run down bathrooms are nasty, food on the floor when I walk in and an hour or so later it’s still on the floor even after I asked the waitress if she could clean it . Dirty tables broken tiles around the windows .

The grilled chicken fajitas here were really good – juicy, flavorful, and served sizzling hot with veggies. Loved the presentation and the portions were generous. Nice spot to enjoy a meal after a walk on Marina Beach!
