El Torero

Food was good, but over priced. 13 $ for some 3 tacos plate that didn’t even come with a drink. had to ask for more hot sauce cause they only gave me one for each taco.

I have been coming to this place for the past 20+ years… The food has always been great… But their salsa is TO DIE FOR!!! I cannot say enough good things about it. It is flavorful, spicy and delicious!!! I LOVE IT!!!
Beans and rice are great, their ‘Burellenó’ (a chile rellenó wrapped in a bean and cheese burrito) is yummy, taquitos, shredded beef tacos and cheese enchiladas and their homemade chips are also favs of mine.
Yes, the prices are higher than they used to be and that does take away from the experience a bit but it is good food.

The place is not very fancy, but have very good, well priced Mexican food. I recommend this place to everybody.

Nothing like this, though prices have risen through the years. I m almost 40 and have been going to this hole in the wall probably about 39.5 yrs. Pretty dam close to home style Mexican American entrees I grew up with. Juanitas in Ontario pretty dam close to this style of food as well. It aint taco bell for dam sure… thank goodness

Breakfast burritos are fabulous. Hard shell ground beef tacos are yummy. They would have gotten 4 stars but they don’t open until 9 am and they are a tad bit slow. So if your are in a hurry on your way to work this is not the place for you. I haven’t tried any other items but I imagine it would be just as good as the burritos and tacos.

This is not an average Mexican fast food place within this area there’s 2 to 4 places you could choose from the Onie bath thing I can say about this place is they don’t have restrooms so you have to be ready for that :-) stay ready with clean hands
Their food is full of flavor homemade style authentic Mexican food I have never been dissatisfied with this place
I do removed you give them a try

Been a loyal customer for 30 years. Pork comb burrito ny fav. Shredded beef taco the best in town. Salsa is killer good. Its actually like a hot sauce and I have been begging for the recipe for 30 years, if I ever get the salsa recipe i will gladly give them 5 stars.

Stay away, Go across the street to The TORTA Dia place. The service was rude and the girl was eating at the counter when I walked in and completely ignored me. The salsa is bland, the Carne Asada was Salty and the tortilla was not fresh. I tried to give them a second shot and the failed.

I stop here every so often just for the chips and salsa. Absolutely love the salsa and sauce they make! If it’s your first time, try the beef and potato burrito. You’ll love it. However, it’s their burrelleno, or however you spell it, that they are famous for. It’s delicious.

This place is a cute right at home kitchen.
The enchiladas were amazing. The salsa very spicy and salsa verde was perfect. Beans are really addicting and the rice… now I hare Spanish rice but this RICE WAS THE BEST I HAVE EVER HAD!!! Nice employees too.

4 stars because I love the food here, but their prices have gone way up. Pretty expensive or fast food Mexican.

Not a fan. The place directly across the street is more authentic and better quality. It’s just upgraded Dell taco put on a plate. Idk maybe my couple times were just bad timing, I wasn’t feeling it at all

I was the only customer in line and the guy at the counter completely ignored me. He saw me, the phone rang and just answered the phone without saying anything! Totally unprofessional and not worth my time or money so I just walked out

Bland…
Ordered the specialty dish today for lunch, The Burelleno. Sounds like a great idea, a chile relleno inside a burrito, but sadly the execution of said burrito left me with a bland taste in my mouth. The beans inside the burrito ruined the taste, metallic, bland rosaritas canned refried beans. The chile relleno was mostly egg while the cheese was a generic cheddar instead of the authentic queso fresco used in real chile rellenos. The service was absolutely terrible, I had ordered chips to munch on but was forgotten by the cashier. This place is more or so a Tex-​Mex restaurant, it caterers to customers of a weaker palate.
P.S– I’ve had tacos from street vendors and they accepted credit without a charge. Please modernize and stop using the customers hard earned money to cover your bottom line.

Was sketched out at first trying this place 3 yrs ago. It was actually good. Had it again and it was amazing. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

Ok at best. Tried the taco plate for lunch and I was disappointed in the portions of beans and rice. Maybe that was a good thing. The beans were a bit dry and bland. The rice was decent. The shredded beef taco was tasty. For my $ 10 (including drink) I would expect something better.

It’s Taco Tuesday! So it was a must to eat tacos! !!! I’m Still a little weak to go out so my hubby brought home our yummy grub to throw down at the house. They were having a special… 3 tacos for $ 5. AWESOME deal so we choose 2 chicken, 2 shredded beef, 2 groud beef. We slso had to have their yummy Chili Rellenos combo w /​rice & beans. Soooo darn good! When you try their tacos you have to get the guacamole sauce! I put a layered of sour cream, guacamole, hot sause on a shredded chicken. .yum. everything I’ve ever ordered from them, have always been delicious. I also HIGHLY RECOMMEND their Pork & Potatoes & cheese burrito. All I can say is OMG! :) Happy Taco Tuesday Everyone!!!

Ok I’m such a fan of this place now! Went for lunch and took the hubby there for dinner! Finally a great Mexican food place! And to top it off they actually had hot salsa! :) we are super happy with this place and the service! Beyond great! Can’t wait to go back and try their other items! :)

We recently had pork chili verde catered for Christmas everyone loved it. It was a big hit. This has been a great place in Corona for as long as I can remember. My sister drives here from San Diego just for their tacos
A definite stop for anyone craving Mexican food

Flashback to my childhood but the big news is new ownership! Granite order counter, cleaner sitting area, new soda machine however the kitchen looks the same. Note… the kitchen is filled with moms… so if you want to have a «mexican home cooked meal», go to E.T.
I had the chili con carne which basically is the red sauce beef version of chile verde — it was hot. For those of you eating healthier, don’t bother with the chips, beans and rice.
If you like Miguel’s, you’ll LOVE El Torero.
Tip…ask for the hot sauce. They still make it home made.
