Food was eh. Shrimp was white with burnt spots. Probably cooked in a hurry.
Shrimp soup (Caldo de Camaron) made with shrimp without the shell and head. Not to my liking. Shrimp and head gives the Caldo so much flavor! And the broth was unpleasant. Made with broccoli and carrots. Did not taste like a True Caldo De Camaron.
Wanted to experience the “Wow Factor” but did not experience it here.
Did have some awesome Cantaritos! And service was great! Lively atmosphere! But it didn’t change the fact of the quality of these two dishes.

Definitely the best Mexican Restaurant in town! Shout out to our amazing servers… Aaron & Estaban! Food is as close to authentic Mexican food that you will find in any other Mexican restaurant for miles!

Great food, fun vibe, and killer drinks. Every dish was fresh and full of flavor. The margaritas were strong and on point but Michelada stole the show. Service was fast and friendly, and the energy in the place made the whole experience even better. A solid go-to for a casual night out or weekend hang.
FYI photos don’t do justice to the taste and flavors.

Initially I gave them only 2 stars because I was agitated over the attitude they gave me when asking for some extra chips. That said, I am a fair person and give credit when credit is due so here’s my initial review: Been here several times and we absolutely love it. It’s as authentic to traditional Mexican cuisine as you would find in the area. If you like guac you need to try their homemade one. Hands down the best! Their house hot sauce is delicious as well as their house salsa.

Ok so let’s admit there’s dozens of Spanish and Mexican restaurants along with food trucks all over Alamance County. Today, we went to San Marcos in Burlington for lunch. I am assuming they are under new management because the food and service was just horrible. I ordered a ground beef quesadilla and it only had ground beef and melted cheese for $9 bucks. I could’ve gone to Taco Bell and gotten a better one for less in cost. The service was awful. We had to ask for napkins twice being there weren’t any when we were sat down. I ordered the guac appetizer and for $6.50 it was a very small cup. For $9 at Toro Cantina you get a bowl and the quality is way better. They never checked in halfway through on how our lunch was. I can keep going but it’s not worth the extra key punches.
We are going back to the Cantina to hit the reset button. Hopefully we continue to get good service moving forward!

I had the King Toros burrito with shrimp and beef. It came with a good amount of guac btw. I’m going back to my 5 star review because they’re extremely difficult to beat!

I was lucky enough to eat dinner with my cousins today! They’re local and absolutely love Toros. I am wary about Mexican food because I have an onion allergy, which is pretty limiting as onion are a common ingredient in Mexican food. At Toros, my allergy was accommodated with no issue. I had incredible shrimp fajitas, and my family ate INCREDIBLE food also! I ordered a grande paloma, and it was ENORMOUS. We had an outstanding dinner with awesome and attentive service, great food, and at a great price. We plan to make this a tradition for our visits and we can’t wait to come back.

My husband and I tried this place for the first time for dinner and we will definitely be back. Our server, Brandon, was one of the best waiters we have had at any restaurant recently. He gave us good recommendations, brought refills without us asking, and checked on us several times during our visit. The food is reasonably priced and very generous portions. The fajita trio dish has more than enough for two people. Definitely worth being another one of our regular restaurants in the area.

Good food and service was great. We always had chips and drinks at the table. Alcohol drinks were strong.

Best Mexican food east of the Mississippi. We’ve been coming here regularly for almost 2 years, and it’s consistently fabulous. Every dish we’ve tried is thoughtfully crafted and unique, the service is phenomenal. I’ve had quality Mexican food in Arizona, California, and New Mexico, I can confidently say Toro’s ranks among the best! My favorite is anything with the shredded beef, and the tres leches cake for dessert.
