Reviews for Taqueria El Torito in Monterey, CA
Excellent Mexican restaurant. Most flavorful veggie fajitas I’ve ever had and decent price. Delicious margarita (also good... price) and guacamole that they prepare freshly in front of your table we made our fajitas vegan by asking for no cheese/sourcream. Could use more vegan and veggie options, but everything was very high quality and flavorful. Staff were super friendlyand kind. Would recommend and go again. Read more
Great restaurant with a very nice view from most tables. Excellent for a family night out or with a larger group. Mexican... specialties are a lot better than average. Cocktails are good though the mixers are a bit depressing. Nice selection of beerstoo. Main courses are definitely higher quality than the starters, which doesn't mean they are per se bad. Just a littlegreasier. Tortilla crackers are a true delight, and the salsa sauce as well as the hot sauce too! Read more

Joseph was absolutely wonderful. One of the best waiters we ever had. Very patient and Explained everything on the menu. We got... the $25 ultimate fajita dish that we shared between us and it was enough for two people. View is amazing. Couldn’t ask formore. Really nice experience. Read more
We went for a vacation in Monterey and were looking for a good Mexican place. This place has good variety of dishes and drinks.... We ended up going pretty late in the night and missed the beautiful Beach facing scene. Def recommend this for amazing Mexicanfood. Read more
Definitely make a reservation online if at all possible, even if it's only a couple hours in advance. We waited about 45 minutes... less than those who arrived simultaneously without a reservation. Food is great and fairly priced. Ocean view is beautiful andpeaceful. Drinks are mostly standard with some fun creative additions. And even though I only mumbled a joke about it being mybirthday (but it really was), I got flan & a song. ?? Read more
Not only is this place gorgeous, the waiter Joseph was so kind we came back 2 other times after. Joseph answered all our... questions, greeted us with a kind and wonderful attitude, and was all smiles. I can say the service here? Gorgeous. The foodhere? Delicious. The atmosphere here? Upbeat. The view? Breathtaking. This is one of my favorite restaurants ever! And ifyou’re #glutenintolerant they’ve got you. The birds are also the entertainers. When you tip, they get part of it too ;) Read more
The chicken taco salad are great and huge. Always love the ocean view, this one in Monterey has validated parking for their... location. There's generally a wait but walk around outside and they'll text you when tables ready Read more
