Taqueria el Toro

"CHECK THE BILL!!! Ask for a REAL bill… For some reason, you always end up paying more than the real amount because you get a non described non itemized receipt that is mysterious. When we added all the items up, it was far below the charged amount. When my friend and I complaint and requested a real bill, the sever, who was aware of their attempt of theft and embarrassed, tried to excuse herself by saying that she added $10 of tipping: We were only two people and the added tip was not disclosed, which means she could have gotten additional tipping from our pockets other than the stolen money, just because. You don’t want to go to a place that leaves a bad taste in your mouth or in your pocket."

"Great place to go to for a late night meal or snack. Great service and delicious food."

"Man El toro is super fire! Me and my son got the Steak burrito and steak tacos with lime and soda, man were they so good and I left so stuffed and full which is very nice on a hard working day!"

"My husband and I had lunch with my parents while visiting family in Milwaukee and Taqueria El Toro was a short walk. There was no wait time, they have lots of tables, the food is fresh and pretty authentic. The wait time for our lunch was not too bad. We ordered quite a bit of food to try out, total tab for four people was reasonable about $100.00. The server we had only seemed to speak Spanish but we were okay communicating, not sure about the other staff. We tried queso fundido with chorizo, various tacos and torta and quesadilla plates with horchata, Mexican beer and tequila. The restaurant and bathrooms were clean."

"I have been visiting the Taqueria El Toro truck on 51st and Oklahoma for a long time now. I kept meaning to try the actual restaurant. I heard they have the stuffed baked potato and have been dying to have it in my belly. My wife and I finally got the chance to visit tonight! The excitement and anticipation were tormenting my taste buds! First of all I am a born and raised Milwaukeean and I have to tell you Mitchell street is not the same as the 90s. That didn't stop me because I am all for supporting local and had to go! The outside of the restaurant is well lit and very easy to find. The dining room is very big and could accommodate a large group. There is a full bar. We went late on Sunday so there were not too many people there. The waitress was super friendly and kind. She only spoke Spanish but that's okay because, welll I am Mexican and I speak Spanish. She allowed us to pick any table. There was music playing at the bar and filled the dining area also. The music was not super loud so that I couldn't hear my wife but just perfect to create a good atmosphere. The menu is in full Spanish so if you don't know Spanish make sure you have Google Translate! If you know what you typically like at a Mexican restaurant you won't have any issue. We ordered two stuffed baked potatoes with Arrachera ( skirt steak) and cheese. Two pastor tacos and 2 barbacoa tacos. The barbacoa tacos are made of slow cooker goat meat. Don't knock them until you try. My dad used to make goat so I wasn't scared. They were juicy, tender and full of flavor! I absolutely recommend! The pastor tacos are made on a gyro style trumpet and shaved off. Served marinaded and with pineapple! Yum yum yum yum yum! They serve with lemons since all the limes lately have been dry! Now to the baked potato, it was baked very well and to perfect softness. It was opened and stuffed with chopped Arrachera meat and cheese. It was really good but I did feel it was missing something. Haven't figured it out yet. Using a tortilla I put the potatoe, steak and cheese pieces on it. A little guacamole and salsa and it was delish! Anyway you guys just need to visit. Don't stick just to the touristy, trendy and we'll known places and try local small restaurants!"
