Here again but this time with 7 others. We were seated right away. Several of us got fajitas, one a huge taco salad, one quesadilla...all looked and were reported good. The tables were clean and cleared as soon as someone left. The waiter today was not as good as last time, really acted like he didn't want to be there, in spite of us all being cheerful. So really this is 3 1/2 stars. My dish was the taquito and it was not as good as the chimichanga I got last time. It was nice to have a table for 8 and enough room for everyone.

Ask for Jonathon and don't forget the Queso. Nestled in a plaza in Cary this spot will make you a lover of all things Mexican. I branched out to a new dish and I'd do it again!

I didn't know there was a Torero's in this neck of the woods! I used to go to one in Durham about 20 yrs ago that had fantastic mole sauce. I was happy to see it on the menu here. The place was hopping since it was lunch and it has the typical decor that so many Mexican restaurants around here have. I ordered the grande lunch size which is two enchiladas with the chicken filling. I was really looking forward to tasting that mole sauce that I remember from way back when. Meanwhile I was enjoying their salsa and chips. In fact, I'd give them 5 stars just for the salsa!My entree arrived and the plate was screaming hot so I had to hold off a bit. Finally I was ready to dig in and sadly the mole didn't has that same flavor as I remember and the color wasn't as dark either. It was kind of bland. The shredded chicken was a bit on the dry side and didn't have any grilled onions and and peppers inside as I remembered either. I Really tried to like it and make my taste buds think it was as I remembered, having had it so many times before way back when, but sadly it didn't. What a let down. Don't get me wrong, it was ok, just not as good as it used to be. My waiter was super nice and attentive as he could be given how busy they were. If I were around this area of Cary again I might stop in again and try something else on the menu rather than the mole.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Got seated right away. Service was excellent. Super friendly and efficient. Had two people took care of me. One brought chips and salsa. One took my order. They was on top of refills of my Melon Agua Fresca which I appreciate. The Melon (cantaloupe flavor) Agua Fresca was super delicious and refreshing! For my meal o got the Burrito rellano. It was sooooo good. I haven't had one since I lived in California. Definitely recommend! I'll be back for it again. Yum the atmosphere of the restaurant is great! It's also a half sports bar. It'll be nice to go back during a game and check em out!

An incredible place for Mexican food. What can I say, the chips were perfectly crispy and salted. The salsa was immaculate. And the birria tacos were made incredibly. The consume was to die for. A great place for Mexican food in Raleigh

My friend brought me here for dinner since I wanted something delicious: let me tell you I wasn't disappointed. The decor of the restaurant and clientele informed me that the flavors are not what I should expect of stereotypical Cary Mexican restaurant. We decided to skip the fajitas, even though the sizzling and smells tempted us and thought to go big. We ordered the the braised Lamb and Birria tacos: I'm still following that trend. Even though the Tacos didn't advertised with cheese, the server suggested it and I knew it was to be. Both were absolutely fantastic! One was a slab of lamb flesh, juicy off the bone goodness. A rich red sauce and my friend was an excellent in choosing the Chile poblano to accompany. The other being 3 tacos with a decadent Mexican au jus. The tortillas were struggling to carry the succulent meaty goodness.The server was a super nice and polite guy, sorry I forgot your name! He was very attentive after we got seated and team followed up with chips and salsa. Great service by the staff!

It's been at least 6 years since visiting Torero's which was one of our go to places until we moved across town. We always loved the warm ambiance and super friendly staff. Nothing has changed. The chicken fajitas were superbly seasoned and the shrimp had pleasant pineapple overtones and was perfectly cooked.Very affordable specials and fresh squeezed citrus is used for their drinks.99 sanitation rating always good to see.

Sadly disappointed in our dinner. Haven't been in a while and remembered a good experience in the past. Do not order anything with seafood - felt like I was eating rubber - both shrimp and scallops. Minced up and obviously cheap, frozen seafood - low quality. Everything just had a very bland taste -was quite surprised. Hope it was just a bad night, but will nvr order seafood here again that's for sure. Server was very nice and efficient.
