    Plenty of drinks, fully stocked bar area!
    John C.

    Excellent authentic Mexican food with large portions ,professional,polite,and accommodating service with bilingual staff, with delightful Mexican decor. Awesome bar is separate from the dining and has seven flat screens to watch your favorites and both Mexican and American beers and alcohol as well as soda.Terrifc portions at a decent price. Plenty of drinks to choose from!

    That's the Oklahoma location where I found the truck.

    I found the truck in front of discount liquor around noon so since I'm trying to stop at every new food that I have not been to I stopped. The menu has all the standard Mexican items but I thought I would do a couple street tacos because I was not super hungry for a big lunch. I ordered the steak and Al Pastor tacos with cilantro and onions that were ready pretty quick, probably the quickest of any taco truck. I tried a piece of each meat first to get an idea of how the meat taste. The steak was good but not very exciting and the Al Pastor was the winner today with a tasty sweet flavor. The tacos were tasty on warm corn tortillas but I thought that they were small was my first impression. The Al Pastor taco with cilantro and onions was definitely the winner today over the steak. The bottom line is that if I was shopping the liquor store and the truck was out I would definitely try more of the menu.

    Ate at the restaurant on Mitchell. Food was delicious! Had the burrito, tacos and quesadilla. Chips came with 3 salsas - all very good. Downside was the menu is in Spanish & waitstaff spoke limited English. And didn't tell us you have to walk to the counter to get the bill. I'm will definitely go back!

    Pastor Tacos are amazing. Walked up and there was one person in front of me. Everything was prepared and ready to go in less than 5 minutes. I took mine to go. Neatly packed with lime and two different kinds of salsa. Again the pastor really impressed me.

    Mediana al pastor quesadilla

    For what it is, this place is amazing! After a night drinking at Bryant's, we needed tacos, so we ended up walking a few blocks to Taqueria El Toro. I ended up getting the mediana al pastor quesadilla. It was massive! If you're just looking for a drunk snack, I recommend the small. The al pastor was so tasty, and the whole plate was very greasy and cheesy and delicious. They bring you out chips and three salsas, which is great! The waitress was so nice (although be prepared to speak Spanish), and it was so cheap! Overall, perfect drunk food!

    Chicken Tacos and chorizo taco
    Jose N.

    The El Toro truck off of Oklahoma has been parked here for a few months so thought I'd give the tacos a shot. I will say that they did not disappoint. We ordered chicken, chorizo, and pastor tacos. The tortillas were soft and warm, the green salsa had fantastic flavors and was mild while the red salsa had a little more heat but still flavorful. My wife said her chicken and chorizo tacos were the best she's ever had. I ordered the pastor and the sweetness of the pineapple paired with the spice of the pork was an awesome combo of flavors, add the salsa and lime they provide and the flavors really pop. The pastor had a 10 minute wait, and I must say it was well worth it. If ever near discount liquor or El Rey give this place a try. Very nice people with fresh ingredients.

    Meat in the tacos was dry, no flavor. The cheese in the nachos was generic can cheese and the steak was dried up.

    The inside of the restaurant was super cool it was decorated. I went there for dining week and got…read morethe guacamole and queso appetizers, Argentinian Steak taco, Al Pastor taco, and Crispy Shrimp taco. It came with the Mexican Rice and Cowboy Beans and churros for dessert. I also got the Rudy's classic margarita. We didn't see the waitress too much but they might've been busy or maybe she was the only one on staff. She was super nice though and got all of our orders correct. When we asked to split the checks at the end, it was sort of odd that they divided everything evenly, including drinks and put 1/4 of each drink on each check. The guacamole was nice and fresh and came with little tortilla strips on top which I took off to dip the tortilla chips in. The queso was nice, salty, and well seasoned. The Margarita was delicious, well blended, just strong enough and a nice size. As far as tacos, The Argentinian steak taco was definitely my favorite. The meat was cooked perfectly and very well seasoned. The El Pastor was also very flavorful and the avo vinaigrette that came on it paired well with the dish. The shrimp on the crispy shrimp taco were big and flavorful, just a little on the dry side. The rice and beans were pretty standard, nothing super special or memorable. The churros came out warm, nice crunch on the outside and soft in the middle. The white dipping sauce reminded me of cereal and the darker one was a chocolate with almost a mole sauce type taste. Super fun place and I would definitely come back!

They specialize in elevated street tacos and small plates. Tuesdays have $2 tacos and Thursdays have $3 tacos, and the kitchen stays open later than most, midnight Tuesday through Thursday and 1:30am Friday and Saturday. They had space for our group, but could only split the bill two ways, and gratuity was automatically added for groups of 6 or more. I was the first to arrive and was asked to wait at the bar since they couldn't seat us until everyone in the party was there. I ordered the Hibiscus Lime Margarita. It was refreshing, and I would order it again. Our table had multiple baskets of chips and salsa, and I added a bowl of queso fundido (chihuahua cheese, pepper jack cheese, corn salsa, paprika, and cilantro). My end of the table went through it quickly. For my meal I had two tacos, the Gringo Pollo (part of the Thursday special) and the Tuna Poke. Both came with items removed at my request and were tasty. Service was quick, and Oliver was friendly. Prices are reasonable, though a bit higher than I'd prefer. This would be an occasional fun spot for me, not my go-to taco place.

The menu features small bites, chicken, loaded fries, and they have specials too. I ordered at the counter and got a text once my food my was ready. There's plenty of seating inside the brewery and the interior is unique because it used to be a church. Don't quote me on that but I'm pretty sure it was at some point. Anyway, I had to try the birria egg rolls because there was a ton of signage. First, they were quite large. The exterior had a great crunch and the interior was stuffed full of delicious birria, mozzarella, and chihuahua cheese. The ancho chipotle aioli was nice and smoky and paired well with the eggrolls. Definitely recommend and I wish I lived in the area because I could make a meal out of just these. I also tried one of the specials, the Chicken Tinga eggrolls. Again, they were bigger than expected, had a delicious, crispy exterior, and was stuffed full of chicken tinga and queso. It was served with a side of crema. Perfect pairing and I might have enjoyed these slightly more than the birria ones. I highly recommend that you check them out. I'm jealous that I don't live closer because we don't have a place like this in KC. They are definitely a unique place with delicious food.
