I had my sisters birthday dinner there and wow, what a mistake that was. It started with the stale chips that came to our table.... We asked for another batch and it was just as bad. We ordered our drinks and they also got that all wrong. We ordered our foodand some of us got it before others and we had to wait for everyone to get their food before we ate and our food ended upgetting cold. And when finally the others got their food we ordered more drinks from the bar and we never got those but later onsaw that they charged us for them anyways. As you could see in our pictures, none of us were remotely happy. Listen, if yourgoing to El Torito just because it’s in Dana Pointe it doesn’t mean that the service is good only because the view is. Weall enjoyed the company but not the food or service. Read more
Great location and a good lunch menu. There was a good selection of lunch items and many items were large portions. Enjoyed the... lunch combo with the tamale and a chicken taco. Everything was hot - so happy about that. The taco fell apart when picked up butstill tasty. The tamale didn’t have that much chicken but the flavor was good. Make sure to check before you eat - there wasstill some remaining foil from the wrapper. Chips and salsa were good but the view is what it’s all about. The service wasgreat and the staff was very attentive. Will definitely come back. Lastly, they had one of the yummiest flan I’ve had in awhile. Read more
El Torito has good food and service but the margaritas are very weak and poor. We went for classic Taco Tuesday and enjoyed the... tacos, but we were so disappointed in the drinks. So we left and went next door to Harpoon Henry's. They have a phenomenal happyhour with tasty Mai Tai's. Next time we will just go there! This photo is from Harpoon Henry's! Read more
Such good stinking food. The fajita meat was cooked to perfection. The burritos were extra tasty. Really great food and awesome... place! Our server wasn't very happy but he did his job still hahah Read more
Took my grandkids here this evening and was so pleased with the service. It’s not just about the food, it’s about the... experience that I want to provide my grandkids whenever possible. Unfortunately I do not have the names of our waitstaff but Ibelieve one was in training. They were both great with my grandkids and made them laugh that deep gut laugh. Although it wasjust a simple dinner, I appreciated the attention we received and their extra effort to make a simple dinner a light and funnyexperience. Thank you! Read more
First of all I really like El Torito's food, it's delicious! But this location is my favorite El Torito restaurant because it's... in the Dana Point Harbor. The restaurant has great views and you can go out for a walk after you eat. I was there on Sunday, thefood was delicious, the staff was friendly, and the service was outstanding. Read more
Food was just average. Service was good but slow and a little disjointed. It was not a busy time of day. Food was presented... well. Chips and salsa average. Good views of Dana point. Read more
