I ordered a catered Nacho Bar lunch for about 40 new employees. I have used El Torero in the past for group lunches. Unfortunately, my past experiences were better. The cost was much more, for a lot less food, that just barely fed my 40 employees. This did not include the sides I had to purchase like olives, sour cream, jalapeno peppers etc. They gave me two bags of nacho chips for 40 people, one container of cheese etc. They began to nickle and dime me for things that should have been included in the over inflated price I paid, and were covered in the past. The employees enjoyed it. I think they just appreciated the gesture. Needless to say, I will not be using them again for this type of event.
The sister restaurant of this place used to be at North Druid Hills, bit ever since it closed down, we have been without a "go to" Mexican Restaurant. I had a hunch that this was the same owner and we stopped in and sure enough, the great food we were missing. We went on a Friday night and a good crowd showed up so it had a loyal following.
The service was on point as they were able to serve all members in our large work party (~20-25 people) very quickly. We all had food and were out the door in about 30 minutes.
Unfortunately, there was nothing memorable about the food to set it apart from other authentic Mexican restaurants. The queso was maybe a tick above average, though.
