    Fish Taco
    Aireal S.

    I only eat fish & veggies. To my surprise the fish taco was better than the cauliflower taco- I wish the cauliflower were deeply roasted but it was still good. I went back after I left to get 2 more fish tacos (overload) because it was so phenomenal. The tacos are actually really big! 2 or 3 is probably enough for one person. The staff was nice & you can earn loyalty points here. The tres leches parfait was PHENOMENAL! I would go back just for that! I love this place & will probably visit every time I'm in Murfreesboro! Thank you for amazing tacos!

    Fish tacos lunch portion. Pretty good

    1st time coming. Sat at the bar. Doesn't seem like they have a dedicated bartender, at least on this Sunday afternoon. Fish tacos (lunch portion) were pretty good. I'd def come back.

    Was just stopping through the city. We dined here on a Friday around 2PM! They have live music. He played Jazz which i thought was strange for a Mexican restaurant but it was still a nice touch. Customer service was just ok to me. Drinks were just ok. Couldn't really taste the alcohol. The food was also just ok, mine was actually a little cold.

    Complimentary Chips and Salsa - This was some of the best free salsa I've had in a while. It wasn't runny and had a touch of heat. 8.5/10

    This was my first visit here and it was really good. The interior had a rustic feel and was welcoming. Our server was very friendly and service was very good. We had several employees check in with us to see if we needed anything. They were playing some authentic Mexican music. They also have a full bar and several TV's just in case a game is on. It is moderately priced and the portions are above average. The food was good and was out to us in under 15 minutes.

    Service was excellent, food was tasty and good portions were great! There was live music that evening I went and it was a nice ambiance. Ordered the street tacos- one steak and one chicken. Both were very good, but I preferred the flavor of the steak (and it wasn't gristly at all!). Also ordered the side of rice and beans and it was a generous portion. I've never seen such a lovely and large "side of avocado"! Chips didn't have that lingering oil taste that can happen sometimes. Everything felt fresh. They have outdoor dining too!

    El Toro Loco is a good spot to satisfy your craving for Mexican food. We tried the salsa, guacamole, and queso and enjoyed them all. Our entrees included the chicken chimichanga and the shrimp tacos, both from the lunch menu. Our food was good, the service was friendly, and the restaurant (including restrooms) was very clean. I'm looking forward to returning soon to try some of the other menu items. Give El Toro Loco a try!

    Terrible food, no seasonings just bland. Also the host didn't believe that I was picking up the contents...not food!

    The food was great! I got the Cacti dish. It was really good. It's a little hidden gem. The service was slow but the food made up for that.

    We've been to a lot of Mexican food places in the area and El Toro our favorite. Food is a tad better, service is great and ambiance is fun.

    One of the best salads I've ever had!!!…read more Such a nice, beautiful, and fun ambience. They are also so affordable compared to other restaurants with such good ingredients, majority house made. I'm also super picky w coffee and it was also just as delicious!

    So we have come here several times for different occasions and today was the least enjoyable. For…read morethe good part of the visit: I love their outdoors area. The tent and bar area are great. They have also really step it up with the games and playing area for kids to just run around and enjoy their time while parents and adults can also enjoy their time. The food has gotten better but I'm still not impressed so I still think they're overpriced. Service: they did "try" to work it out but very poorly. My sister made a reservation for 13 people but somehow they only had one our reservation, quote "10 or 11 people" so they were not prepared either way. We only had 1 extra person showed up. They gave us one (1) picnic table for our party. Even if it was "10 or 11" of us we would have not fit in one of the picnic tables even adding the two chairs at the end, and we didn't. It's better to say they made a mistake than to blame the patrons. There were 2 open tables that could have been used but our server wasn't assigned them... the must dumb excuse on the book. I've worked in restaurants and we always made it work for the customer and the serve, mind you, they were right next to each other. Communication between managers, servers and host/hostess could have been better. Also, I don't like they make you share tables with people you don't know. I love meeting people but this isn't Monell's y'all. Get different kind of seating if you are not going to be open seating in that area. It makes it less awkward to our wallets when we are all chilling and ask, "can we seat here" knowing that you have to say "yes, sure" unless you have your people coming to save you. Overall all, having overwhelmed staff for a planned holiday that happens every years is just unpreparedness of the establishment and a sour taste to the customer. Please do come and try it for yourself.
