Delicious food, great service and awesome drinks. We've been here 5 years, didn't think it was any good. We were wrong. One of my favorite spots. I totally recommend it. Looks like they're finally getting a much needed remodel. They've taken out the fountain.

Stopped in for lunch this week and tried the (tortilla) soup and (Mexican style) salad, which I had not noticed before on the menu. I was surprised by how much it reminded me of the Olive Garden soup and salad, which I love! All it needed was a little hot sauce to spice it up. Very good!

El Torito is in a great location. There is a lot of parking and hardly any wait time when I went. My server Allania was so sweet and perfect! She made sure I was set with everything as soon as I sat down. My food was hot and extremely delicious! I will definitely be back soon.

Yesterday my boy’s and I went to Sunday brunch for the first time. Our server Tiffany was amazing very attentive, efficient, and always with a big smile. To top it off the green chicken pozole was amazing. We will definitely return and have her as our server again. For such a pleasant and fun experience. Thank you El Torito for a great time.

Ate dinner with a large group at the Stockton El Torito. Drinks and dinner was good but our waiter Kyle was awesome! Personality plus, attentive, checked on us and was the best! Kyle could open a training center for all wait staff as he's that good. Thanks!

Even though they may have been short staffed the staff that was there was wonderful. We sat at the bar and had a delicious meal. A wonderful bartender with a beautiful smile saw to it that we waited for nothing. Very nice evening.

Date night did not disappoint. Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere. Consistent quality and is a pleasant dinning experience. I love the fountain

While the staff was friendly the facility was dirty, unorganized, and felt quite like no one should be in there. The salsa was really watery on the table. The food took a really long time to come. This was surprising because my friends and I were only one of three tables sat in the whole restaurant. When it did though the table side salad creation on the steak salad was really fun. The salad itself was tasty but nothing extraordinary.

Love this place!!!! Been here a couple times during the quarantine. It's a shame that this place is so empty due to that fact. Always friendly service, accommodating, clean, and tasty.

Our second time coming to El Torito in Stockton, picked up a family fajita dinner and did not regret it! Everything was great, I wish they filled up the rice and beans just a little more but next time I’ll just order more of the sides, no big deal! Service was fast, we made our order online and one of the girls came out quickly and was very sweet! The order was complete and she made sure everything was inside the bags for us. We will be back! Thank you

I had an excellent experience here. Finally, my family and I were able to dine out even if it was outdoors! The employees were great, the music too and the food and margaritas were just fabulous. We all wore our masks, used hand sanitizer and we all had a great time!

Everyone did an outstanding job considering what they had to deal with from the covid 19 fiasco the state of California is putting them through.

The food was delicious. Prices were reasonable. The service though was not up to par with the prices and atmosphere. Granted they had plenty of servers around to assist us, the server assigned to our table was not so available. She was friendly yes, I give her that. But I was hoping she would have been more attentive to her customers. I know being a server is no cake-walk, so kudos to all those who are still busting it.

My favorite spot for quality Mexican food. Service is excellent even when they are busy. Staff treated us so kindly. The place has a cool feel to it.

Sitting outside in the sun was lovely with amazing waitress who was very attentive and friendly. The food menu seemed different since I have last been there, so I am looking forward to trying some of their newer options next time I visit. I tried the steak fajitas and they were excellent for their Monday special. It was a nice portion and very tasty. I love their chips and salsa too.

Waitress was really nice, but eating outside was not as nice as being inside. Kinda cold, and the outside area could have been picked up better. Food was pretty good, and chips and salsa were very good as well. Service was very good with order and food coming out quickly. Had not been there in a long time. I'd try it again on a nicer day or evening and hopefully be able to eat inside. Pretty good considering the cold weather.

We received excellent service. The Margaritas were great and had plenty of alcohol. The bar top was a bit sticky but we enjoyed our overall experience. Definitely coming back.

I do not recommend going to El Torito for anything except brunch, happy hour, and/or taco Tuesday. Their regular food is whatever. I never was a fan. Their brunch however was amazing. We loved the variety and those pancakes were so good. I have only 1 problem. We got there a little late. Brunch ends at 2. I asked them if they end it at 2, can we still have brunch since we were seated pretty late. They reassured me that they would keep serving us as long as we were eating. Well 2 rolled around pretty fast. I went to get food, everything was gone. They didn't give us a warning. Plus they seated us far in the back where no one could really see us. I was pretty unhappy about this. I like the food, but if I would have known they would do that I could have ate somewhere else.

This is one of my all-time favorite spots to come to in Stockton. Whether it’s for a Sunday brunch, a nice dinner or just simple drinks and conversation. This place always seems to come to mind. I’ve also been here a couple of times during football season, as it’s nice to have a couple of drinks at the bar watching the game and eating some good food every now and again so I want to spark up some good conversation as well. We decided last minute to have dinner at the spot as a previous other choice had a very extensive weight. Once we arrived here we only had to wait about 10 to 15 minutes. Stopping here made for an awesome night.

Didn't took long to get a table. Guy was really nice with the drinks and the food was being served fast. The lady in charge of the dessert table didn't know what she was doing, she looked confused as to what to do or what was in front of her when I asked what was sertain items where she just gave me a puzzled look.. Overall everything was good but it does need a bit more variety and work at the dessert table.

Went in with the wife and kids. Food wasnt bad ordered dessert first because well you never get to it and always take home food so why not try it! Either way only got one refill and drinks were empty for a while for and by the time the food came the plates were super hot which makes me think it sat for a while which I'm sure it did as everything the waitress did took a while. Spent about 110 for a dinner for 2 adults and 2 kids overall could have been better for first time there

I love this place to eat. We order our breakfast and it taste so good. The server gives us an excellent service. You can take a lot of pictures while waiting for your food to be serve because they have nice picture frames and a fountain inside the restaurant. I recommend this restaurant to.my family and friends. You will surely love their food and service.

My husband and I had our first date here more than 33 years ago. It was a wonderful surprise to see it still open. So we had dinner for our 30th anniversary. Amazing! The food was sinfully good and the staff are the best! Here's to another 30!! 😊💛✌🏼👍🏼💜

Saturday breakfast was awesome! We sat in the bar area and got the best service! Hard to find a brunch spot on a Saturday which is the best day to have brunch. College football on, great spot for the best day of the week. Can't wait to go back.

Good quality average, service friendly. We were seated on the bar side of the restaurant and smelled sewer type odors. It didn’t ruin the evening but diminished the overall experience.

It was my birthday & 2 days before Christmas. It was late in the evening. There was like 10 of us. They got us in VERY quickly. We couldn't make up our minds. We had a young baby & a very rambunctious, slightly autistic 7-year-old with us. The waitress and staff were amazingly patient with us. Food was WONDERFUL. Drinks were great. Our server Alejandra, went above and beyond. Then there was Rachel, a supervisor (I think), made it's so warm and comfortable. Felt like being home. We will definitely be coming back. Plus she deserves a scooter for Christmas. LOL.
