Horrible Experience This location was hosting a fundraiser for Tri-City Hospital last week, so we went to support the cause. Trying to be patient, we waited for half an hour before we went looking for someone to take our order.

Unsure who our server was since we never saw anyone but the manager, we flagged down a girl and asked her to check on our order because if it w... read more

Nick from Oceanside Yes!!!!!!!!!! I had the best dinner out I have had in a long time at El Torito, My wife had a coupon to get 10.00 off if you purchase 25.00 so we drove around talking about where to go.

good food good service The inside of the restaurant is beautiful! Very colorful and the paintings are great! The food is good. Not as authentic but good enough. The have a good variety of beer and mixed drinks. I think it's the best el toritos in the san diego county area. The service is friendly and attentive.

DON'T GO HERE If someone where to ask me to rate this place last week, I would have given it a 5 star plus. However, after the service that my friends and I had tonight makes me never want to go back to that hell hole again. The service was terrible. We waited for at least 2 hours to get one glass of water... it was four of us, and we kept asking the whole time we were there for water. We sat in the bar area, which can get really busy, and since one of the people I was with is a waitress herself, we understood how sometimes ... read more
