Lunch for 1 on Margarita Mondays is fun at Toreros Mexican Restaurant in Raleigh! Plenty of free parking in the lot where the restaurant is located right off Atlantic Avenue. I was there primarily for a mid-day margarita and to take advantage of the special, which is classic Margarita on the rocks for $2 or Frozen for $3 with a choice of flavors. I opted for the mango and loved it. Complimentary warm chips and salsa paired well with my cocktail which came quick when ordered. For lunch ( which is served Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and weekends, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m) I got the steak fajitas. You get a half portion of meat, served sizzling hot over sauteed onions and green peppers. Served with refried beans, Mexican rice, corn or flour tortillas, lettuce, pico de gallo, Cheddar cheese, sour cream and guacamole. Even though it was a half portion, it was still quite a bit for me to take home. Maybe I got too full of the chips and salsa and margarita- I literally could just go there for that. Service was friendly, prompt and I would describe the ambiance as colorful. It gave the feeling that you were going to receive authentic Mexican food and that's why it's a place I recommend for consistent food at a decent price.

This reaturant has gone down hill. This was and has been one of our favorite Mexican restaurant for years! We moved to Durham and decided to make the 30 min drive over to Raleigh. That was a mistake. Not only was our waiter not that friendly, he never checked in on us, after received our food and we were one of maybe 5 tables there on a Thursday afternoon at 3 p.m. I understand that lunch combos are to be smaller. They are less food for a lesser amount. But to serve it on a big plate, with only half the food ... really? Also this small amount for ACP for $11? That's crazy. Also not even 2 bites in .. I find a HAIR! It was wrapped around the chicken and covered in cheese! *The manager did comp my meal and I did not order anything else.* We will most likely not be back, we will be going to the Mexican restaurants in Brier Creek and we recommend you do the same.

Can't believe it's been eight years since I've updated my review here, but I stand by my "consistently good" comment from back then. There was a period where the quality might have slipped a tad, especially when it came to their rellenos, but they are right back up there where I've always liked them. Nothing makes me happier than a combo of a chile relleno and a spinach enchilada with beans and rice.Husband's favorite is the fajita quesadilla with steak. Chips and Salsa are always good, and still complimentary. Prices reasonable. Portions gigantic. And service is always quick. Nice variety of seating, whether there's just two of you or a larger group. Patio seating available as well. It's in an old shopping center at Millbrook and Atlantic Avenue with plenty of parking available.

Went to this spot last night & shesssssh, I've certainly been missing out! Soon as you're seated you are given chips & salsa 10/10! Chips were cooked to perfectionnnnn. This is a small & cozy little vibe. We ordered the fajita nachos and chicken, shrimp & beef fajitas. Listen it was all soo bomb - meat for the fajitas were so tender and flavorful that I didn't even bother using the corn tortillas that came with it. They were running a great special on margaritas so we tried various flavors - raspberry, peach, mango and strawberry for $7.99 - all a 10/10. Do yourself a favor and visit this spot. Service was quick too! We went around 5pm right before it got super busy! Will definitely be checking them out again, so that I can try some other dishes. My phone died before I could get pics of the food and other drinks but overall 10/10!!!

We had fast and efficient service. We arrived right at lunch time and were seated promptly in a quiet booth towards the back of the restaurant. Even as people piled into the restaurant we were served promptly and the food was filling and hot. I absolutely recommend their steak salad.

The Carne Asada was good and the portion size was great! The rice and guac were good as well. The Miami Slammer was dangerous good! Service was great here too. They were very understanding and kind when my friend needed to move tables because a vent was blowing directly on her.

Good portions, wide variety of food is available. Server was quick and brought salsa prior to running out, he also refilled my water quickly. One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Raleigh. Nothing fancy just good food.
