Had a great experience at Toro Toro last night. I called ahead to make sure meat is halal and they confirmed both on the phone and in the store that all meat is halal and only chicken is not halal. We tried an appetizer called short rib something to share and it was beyond extraordinary. It tasted amazing and was so soft and melting in the mouth. We had skirt steak and it was pretty huge 14 oz for $75 and they were cooked perfectly to our request. Steaks were really juicy and very well seasoned and it was one of the best steaks I ever had. Our waiter was friendly and professional and restaurant atmosphere was calm and classy

Very good service. Food is phenomenal and has great presentation. The bread they serve at the beginning is some of the best bread service I have ever had. The only downside is that because it's in a hotel that hosts events, the atmosphere may very. For us there was a part on the floor above that was literally shaking the ceiling. The whole four was reverberating from it.

We arrived without a reservation on a Thursday around 6pm and we were delighted that they were able to seat us quickly as we had a long 10 hour drive that day. Needless to say we were ready to tear it up on good food. We came here as me and my husband have been here before for cocktails and enjoyed our experience and said we would get dinner next time. We brought friends with us as we were all vacationing together to celebrate our anniversary’s. Let’s get into it- We were seated immediately and our server was at our table as we were being seated filling up our glasses with water. It gave us a chance to read over menus and have him explain things on the menu. Our server was fantastic. We ordered a good spread of food, some managed to get photographs taken before we jumped in. Everything with our appetizers was delicious and cooked great. The flavors were extremely satisfying after a day of snacking in the car. The Amarillo ceviche came as a suggestion from our server and it was absolutely delicious. 2 of us ordered the Wagyu, and both were ordered medium and arrived medium. They tasted amazing, so tender and flavorful. I like how they seasoned them and added the butter on top and it really made for an enjoyable meal. I also ordered the potatoes 3 ways and they were great. It had little crispy potatoes flaked on top, little tiny baby potatoes, and mashed potatoes. It was delicious. One of us said it was the best steak they’ve ever had, and for me personally it was in my top 5. I’ve tried lots of Wagyu and it was delicious, but I’ve had better. This is where the lack of 5 stars on food came from for me. I would absolutely come back again as it was a very enjoyable meal and really wasn’t a bad price for a very nice meal. Our server also made the experience enjoyable as we didn’t have to wait on refills, he was amazing at explaining any questions we had, and his suggestions also made for a very enjoyable dinner. The food also came out in a nice timely manner and we weren’t sitting for hours waiting so that was also nice to get dinner wrapped up quickly and into bed for our cruise the next morning.

Edit: originally gave 2 stars but then the food poisoning hit. Server had zero personality and was 0% helpful. The lobster empanadas were inedible and i let her know and they stayed on check. The crispy prawns were pretty good (hence 3*) but 1 of the 5 or so had either gone bad or was freezer burnt or something? So awful. I dont understand how this place has over 4 stars

Tasty and elegant, modern yet old flavors are how I describe the food. Delicious with a hint of fusion.

Just amazing from sharing plates, big portions thankfully our server guided us with how many as I wanted to try them all! Steaks looked amazing too. Great wine list and inventive cocktails. Brilliant service from staff who care you enjoy the food and look out for anything else you need. Price wise, cheaper than over priced south beach restaurants with poor quality and definitely service. Clever food, I had the Cuban cigar desert.....delicious. all the food was excellent and tasty and inventive.

This is my 3rd time here my last time this past Saturday my now fiancé proposed to me over dessert!! My favorite the la bomba I always order it and record when they bring out because it’s such a beautiful display and yummy! Also love their bathroom & mirror lol always clean too! I’ve had their chicken, fish and even the tomahawk steak & they are ALLL good dishes and worth the price!! I’ve never had an issue any time I’ve been here with food or service. Great atmosphere and staff!! Would recommend and will always come back!! Thank you Toro Toro for an unforgettable experience 1/18/25!!
