El Toro is absolutely amazing! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making every visit enjoyable. The atmosphere is perfect--warm, inviting, and a great place to relax. It's our go-to spot every time! Today, we had the chicken and steak quesadillas, and they were delicious--perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We can't recommend this place enough. Love it here!

This restaurant is located right outside my neighborhood, and let me tell you, this place has some mighty frozen margaritas and delicious Mexican food. One drink, and you'll be sleeping the rest of the night, so if you like strong margaritas, this is your spot. The ambiance is alright. I sat in the patio area, facing a tv to watch sports while enjoying my food. I liked the restaurant enough to recommend this to whoever wants a New Mexican restaurant to try. Other than sitting here for an actual meal, I had ordered a couple of take-outs from here, and it only took twenty minutes for the food to be ready for pickup! They're fast.

Best casual Mexican place in Lexington. Plenty of seating. Parking is limited but usually fine. Right off Nicholasville. The drinks are huge, heavy poured, cheap and delicious. The plates are standard, classic Mexican American food. The pricing is cheap, the staff is super friendly and food comes fast. We came for a birthday party and they were awesome with getting everything on time. We also come for date nights/celebrations for small things and it never disappoints. Love it here.

Good service, fast although busy. The food was great. We got the guacamole and queso with the chips, and really enjoyed both. For dinner, we split the four burritos- one pork, cheese, beef, and chicken (two adults). We really enjoyed them, though I wasn't a huge fan of the pork. Beans and rice were seasoned and tasty. Margaritas were 2 for 1, though we were not a fan of them. They taste like straight premade margarita mix. The Dos Equis beer was nice and cold. Overall, good option!

Been going here for years, and is by far our favorite place. They take such good care of us and we never have to wait long for anything. We are greeted by multiple staff, and checked on regularly. Thank you for being so great!

We stayed in Lexington for a horse show at the horse park in May and El Toro was recommended by the Hampton next door. We ended up eating there the next 3 nights it was so good. Great service, cold beer, nice selection of drinks for my wife and huge menu. Try it, you'll like it.

Easily the best Mexican restaurant in Lexington. The food is fantastic, service has always been great, Rosa makes you feel welcome. The dining room is comfortable and clean. I can't think of a single suggestion. If I lived a little closer to it I'd eat there weekly at least. Go check it out!
