2nd time dining at Toro. 1st experience was excellent… food, service, ambiance…. All terrific. This experience was not quite as good only because the food was just okay. Tequila was excellent, as was service and ambiance. However food was served somewhat lukewarm…. Not great.

The service was horrendous. The waiter did not bring our drinks. Has to ask him three times. He never brought the chips and salsa - we had to ask someone to get our check - would never go back even though the food was good

Food was good. Portions were large. Service was excellent. The only disappointment was happy hour pricing only available to bar patrons. If you are planning on getting drinks or appetizers I'd recommend starting at the bar.
