He invited me to do some taste testing and was genuinely interested in my opinion and would make adjustments to the formula when we would both agree that the drink need adjusting. He was relentless until the drink was perfect. All the bartenders were great and very knowledgeable. The scene is chill and laid back. The music was good and not too loud so it was easy to have a conversation. This is definitely a place to check out and enjoy!

When we got to the first landing area, we saw the sign and decided we had to go in and check it out. There is a bar when you first walk in then another bar to the left. We knew the security guard that was working and checking IDs so we were excited to say hi to him. The bar was super busy and all the booths were taken, but the bartenders took our order and by the time the drinks were made, two people were leaving and gave us their spots. We only went in for a nightcap after a dinner date so I'm unsure if they have food/ bar snacks or anything. We'd definitely go back if we're ever in the area.

Unfortunately, I have to update my review. I originally left an overall positive 4 star review for…read moreRock and Rye, and have been a loyal customer, having visited well over 20 times during my time in San Antonio. Instead of taking the feedback professionally, the owner chose to personally message me in a very unprofessional and rude manner. See photo attached. Yelp is supposed to be a place for constructive feedback, and that is what I originally gave. Rather than take constructive, and still overwhelmingly positive feedback, the owner responded with hostility and threats. This is concerning to say the least.... If this is how the owner speaks to someone who left a mostly positive review, I can only imagine how they respond to criticism. Unfortunately I can't recommend supporting a business whose owner behaves this unprofessionally. Future patrons should be aware.

Most experiences there were okay to start but then it just get weirder and weirder as the night goes along. This is like a beginners night club with a lot of weird people. Some of it is okay but again the later it gets, the weirder it gets. We had over the top security litterly pushing a group of girls down a flight of stairs when we were on our way out for the night. Some security definitely have ego trips here. Just be warned, theres sooo much better than this in S.A. and yall deserve better I imagine. This is a place trying to be hip/modern but then gets weird/over crowded and ghetto

Me and my…read morefamily decided to give this spot the benefit of the doubt due to its reviews but can see why this place doesn't have the 5 star rating. We went 1/31/25 and a fight broke out. Instead of "Security" doing their job and getting the perpetrators he went after the innocent group. And allowed them to keep getting attacked and beaten while standing there. It's mind boggling that this place is still running, It has incompetent security guards , staff and owner. This place needs to be shut down after reading the reviews and how their security handles situations improperly and how management hasn't made a dent to make changes, it's no brainer this place needs to be shut down . If you're looking to have a good time , I do not recommend this place at all. Your well being is more important.

I am so glad I decided to try Toro yesterday. I reserved a table for 5 at 5 pm pn a Friday inside…read moreby a window through their site. No charge for reserving. From the moment you approach the restaurant- Not even walk in- you are greeted by a professional and hospitable staff. In the front 2 young workers gave us sangria samples and helped take my photo. So smiley and kind. Then I checked into my table at the host stand. Our table was in a gorgeous lit room by the stairs. The inside was so breathtakingly beautiful and clean . The restrooms as well. Our server Omar quickly filled our drink cups with cold water and took our actual drink order. They have premium lemomades and also fountain drinks with free refills. When he returned he gave us great recommendations from their 8 dollar tapas menu on happy hour (M-F 3-6). We ordered 3: Tacos de Cochinita Pibil / Slow cooked pork marinated in achiote sauce . Calamares Fritos / Fried steak calamari w/ alioli sauce ... Albondigas / Five Spanish pork meatballs marinated in wine tomato sauce with bread .... The bread with the meatballs should be toasted and it was cold. The calamari were AMAZING. Not chewy at all. And tacos unique and flavorful. It took a while to decide but with Omar's guidance and a lot of research beforehand, I reccomend large parties order these to get the best tasting experience: Parrillada Española / Spanish grilled feast with morcilla, 4oz Spanish sirloin, chistorra, three fried jumbo shrimp, and poached potatoes with alioli Toro Paella / Toro's Classic recipe voted best in San Antonio! Jumbo shrimp, mussels, chicken, calamari, pork belly & spanish chorizo . The grilled platter came out first very fast and the meats were delectable. Love the sausage. Again... toast the bread but everything else was delicious. The paella didn't take long at all. It lived up to our expectations. Delicious and hot, enough to fill us up with whatever room was left. The nicest part was Omar brought us complimentary shots of some sort of strawberry cocktail with a chili rim. He was so thoughtful and brought my sister who was 12 a non alcoholic version. We cheered to a good time. It was so good!!! Then we asked for dessert recommendations. Omar suggested the Torrijas / Classic spanish dessert, bread soaked in sweet cream, fried & drizzled in honey .. so that's what we got. It was SO yummy like tres leches French toast. With their website you get a 30 dollar off first visit coupon using the inkind app. I signed up and it worked perfectly. After the discount all that food came out to $150. Insane for a party of 5. I tipped 30 and using that inkind app got 30 dollars cash back to use anywhere on the app. But ill use it here. Come to TORO for a great time. Linger. Talk. Enjoy unique flavors. Felt like going to Spain.

I know this part is outside of their control, but parking is absolutely difficult. The mall changed…read morethe closest parking to the Restuarant to paid parking. So just a heads up if you're visiting this location. Service definitely needed improvement as the waitress completely inattentive and only saw her twice during my time there. I saw a couple of other patrons just as irritated waiting and looking around for her too. When ordering I asked if the stock they used contained shrimp in it due to an allergy at the table. She continued to recommend every dish that contained shrimp rather than answer about the stock- even after being told about the allergy. Finally got my answer after pointing directly to the menu mentioning the seafood stock. Food was okay. Waited a bit longer but reasonably so due to the allergy and food prep. When the server came she asked if we needed more water- which we did. We waited the entire service for that refill, again nowhere to be seen. We were done with our food for about 30 minutes till she finally checked up on us, with the bill. The restaurant added an automatic gratuity of 20% mind you the restaurant policy was only for parties of 6 or more. Like it made me question the service at this location if they're getting tips but not delivering in service. Definitely wouldn't recommend this location.
