Toro

Fantastic. We had so many dishes and everything was so good. The mushroom and potatoes were among my favorites. Can't go wrong with churros as a sweet option. The place itself was smaller than I initially thought but it made for a super nice dinner ambiance. This is a tapas place worth trying out! You can't go wrong!

The service at Toro was impeccable. The service is fast and the staff is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about allergies. Each time a dish was brought out I was told the allergens and reminded if I could eat the food or not. There is outside dining and inside dining as well. The olives were delicious, my only complaint was some were squishy. However, the portion of olives was the proper portion (massive). The sorbet I would buy the gallon. The octopus was delicious, except my ends that were burnt. The patat

Overall the food and drinks were good but the loud and crowded atmosphere unfortunately detracted from my enjoyment. Food: All the dishes were very tasty albeit on the pricey side. The octopus was our favorite, it was super tender and went perfectly with the accompaniments. The tuna was very refreshing but a disappointment considering the price tag.Service: The waiter was attentive and gave great recommendations. Atmosphere: The atmosphere is the primary complaint about the dinner. It feels much more like a crowded bar with the music and bumping shoulders, which is a shame considering the premium price of the food. We were so packed that the kind waiter had to pull out our table in order to access the inner seat. It was hard even to hold conversations without having to repeat every sentence. It just feels mismatched if you were drawn to the restaurant by the food.

Cute casual ambiance. I would say it's about 7/10 overall with food and service. Compared to a true Spanish tapas spot and a high end restaurant with phenomenal service. It was great, but not spectacular. Dishes were about for 2-3 people so I would order more than usual if you're hungry. It's best for a date, but not for a special occasion.

Food: Asado was so good - bone marrow was small but delicious. I loved with having with bread. It had different flavors every time I had it and they were equally delicious. Vegan paella was not too bad. Would've enjoyed more if there was more seasoning. The rice bottom was all burnt too much that I couldn't enjoy it. I usually like the bottom layer as it's crispy but this time it wasn't edible. Other than that, food was nice, staffs were friendly. The restaurant is very crowded and packed with people as it is really popular.

I stopped into this place on a whim and boy am I glad that I did. Very small place with a TON of flavor. The tostadas with the tuna was insane. Flavorful and fresh and the cilantro pulls the whole thing together. The burrata and radish dish was next and I was pleasantly surprised. Radish can be so bitter, but the burrata mellows it nicely. The nuts and citrus also add a sweet quality that makes this cold dish sing. Next was the flank steak. WOW! I wasn't expecting the punch of flavor this steak had. The star here was absolutely the sauce that accompanies the well seasoned steak. Lastly, the house sent over the deviled eggs. I'm not a big fan of anchovies, but they went well with the eggs and eventually took a back seat to the rest of the flavors of the dish. In addition to great food, the place is very well kept and the staff is incredibly accommodating and amazing. My server was wonderful making great recommendations and providing just enough attention without being bothersome. Overall, Toro was a home run for me. I'm looking forward to getting back there for another great Friday evening. But MAKE RESERVATIONS! It gets packed very fast!

Toros got to be one of my favorite restaurants in Boston. This was one of my first restaurants I went to when I moved to Boston 3 years ago and it holds up year after year. The food is delicious. The oysters are a must and so is the pork steak, mushrooms, and gambas. The bravas bomb is the most iconic. The service was great even in a torrential downpour our server still got us our food and even gave us complimentary duck wings for the weather and they were absolutely delicious . Located in the South End this restaurant is a great vibe and has great ambiance.

Really enjoyed my trip to Toro! Came with a group of 4 and were able to split a bunch of small plates. The patatas bravas, goat cheese, and empanadas were definitely the highlights for me!! Delicious. We also got the paella, and sliders as well as a pitcher of sangria. My only complaint is that everything was super expensive, but it's such a popular spot so I do get why!

Not sure why this place has such good reviews, I was very underwhelmed when dining here. Although the presentation of each dish was nice, I can't say that there was any dish that had a wow factor. Except for the empanada, most of the dishes lacked flavor. And the quantity of some of the items was not worth the price, given the lack of flavor. The service was good, and the place was packed, but there are much tastier places to eat in Boston.

Toro is a staple for dinner in Boston. We have been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. Favorites include: manchego, potatoes bravas, maiz asado, and shishito peppers. Best late night vibes, sometimes hard to find in Boston. The staff is super friendly too!
