Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Hey, what can I say, it's pretty authentic and the people are friendly, but this is nothing to get excited about. If it were cheaper and the foods was a little better I might return. Three stars is generous. They need to muck it up a notch or lower their prices. The place was empty when I are there, and that pretty much says it all. Good luck guys.

Wow, over $17 for one dinner and queso and then they want to charge you another $1.34 for freaking tortillas. What the hell. This dinner really cost about $3. Rip off Won't ever be back, too many other options

My prior review was based on the first time I'd eaten here, three and a half years later, I had to update. This place is consistently great. The food has never once, been anything but really good. It's consistent, which has not happened at any other Mexican place I've been to in the area since I've lived here. The service is attentive and friendly no matter the time of day. In 20 or 25 visits, I have never seen a dirty table that wasn't cleared in moments, never had to send back a dirty fork, or had to wait more then 2 minutes for a refill, no matter what I was drinking. On top of the photos on the wall are just stunning, the owner has an artist's eye.

I like these guys. Always had quick service, good Mexican street food, nothing fancy, Mexicans work here and run the place which is a plus, Really good Texas Margaritas. I think it works for what she is ... I keep goin' back, call me crazy but I dig it !

I always try to give a place a couple of tries before giving it a bad review - they could have had just an off night. But sadly, El Torero has a lot of those it seems. The place doesn't seem like it was built with Mexican in mind - with a counter to pay at and the cheapo seating, it looks like it was supposed to be a fast-food place that went under. The random nature scenes on the wall don't tell me anything that says 'Mexico'. The pay station is crowded and shows off too much stuff that should be 'behind the scenes'. There's nothing fancy on the oversized menu - the same menu at any mexican restaurant, but in a giant oversized sheet that's hard to hold. The ordering is also a little weird. We ordered our drinks and the waiter left the ticket at our table. When we wanted to order the food, he took the ticket back. Why leave that there? He also left it right in front of our toddler, so there's not a lot of situational awareness here. The food was unimpressive. The guacamole and salsa were clearly from a can or a tube - in fact, I would be surprised if anything was made on premises. My chimichangas were dry and not very flavorful. Also, apparently steak and shredded beef are the same thing, despite what I get at other places. I guess the food wasn't truly BAD, but it was definitely not good. I could forgive weird decor, poor service, and unpleasant food if it was all really cheap. Nope! I ended up paying as much for our crappy meal as I would if I had gotten alcohol at a good mexican place. We only went here because the place we wanted to go was crowded. I wish we had just waited in line instead.

El Torero is overpriced, greasy and their dishes don't have very much taste. The floor is greasy and you have to sit in fast food-style booths. For example, a burrito, taco & beans on the dinner menu is around $10.50 and is VERY bland in taste. At similar restaurants (e.g. El Porton) - the combination dinners are a dollar or two less expensive and have much better taste. Do yourself a favor and drive the extra mile to Tara Humata, their food is much better quality there - we won't be going back.

Live in neighborhood and drive by the restaurant often but never been in. Had mexican urge and Frontera has closed so thought I would give it a try. Wish I hadn't. It is undoubtedly the worst mexican food I have eaten in a long while and the service was horrible. The salsa was out of can with cold chips. The lunch combos are higher than most of the chains around area. Ordered chile relleno and enchilada. The chile relleno was an overcooked, slimy mess sitting atop a glob of half melted shredded cheese flooded with a disgusting red sauce. The cheese enchilada was so hard it required steak knife to cut through even after being drenched in, you guessed it, that disgusting red sauce. The whole experience was a disaster from the cheap seating & decor, could care less service & horrible food. The new Rojo Cantina across the street is a far better, less expensive choice.

Some well made Americanized Mexican is a beautiful thing. And the food at this Roswell staple is just as beautiful as the owner's intriguing photography that adorns the walls. It's not as cheap as my beloved Viva Mexico in Marietta, but it's just as fresh and tasty. The "Special Taco Salad" is a generous portion of crispy lettuce, topped with some of the best ground beef I've had, along with a literal mountain of guacamole and sour cream, crowned off with a single tomato slice, all piled high in a freshly fried taco shell. Delicious. Their salsa is a bit watery, but has a nice kick, and works well on their thicker-style tortilla chips that are served warm. Service is excellent, though do keep in mind they close for a couple of hours after lunch and reopen for dinner at 5pm, and they are also closed on Sundays. All in all, a very solid choice for Mexican food in Roswell. Now I just want to try one of their frozen 16oz. margaritas (for only $6)!

It was between this place and a place claiming to offer the best burgers in Roswell. My wife chose this place. I ordered the Flautas with beef and guacamole. Sure the seating is like your typical Mexican restaurant but it is bigger and the service people were waiting immediately to help you. It was more than adequately staffed with attentive older gentlemen. The place is clean and comfortable and wasn't crowded. There were about 4 or 5 other couples or small groups there at lunch (1:00 on a Tuesday). All three waiters were waiting for the next client. The food arrived promptly. It was definitely above average. I had ordered the cheese with Jalapenos on top of my Flauta. It was $5.75 plus $1 for the cheese with jalapenos. It was great. I cleaned my plate. When it comes to Mexican food, you pretty much should know what you are getting, and this place served what you expect a good, decent Mexican food place to serve. Then I looked up, and that was the reason for the five star. The owner is a big-time nature photography buff and there are probably 60 really, really cool nature prints. His name is Manuel Magana and under most of the prints it says photographed by Manuel Magana, Cozumel, Mexico. He's got a lot of marine aquaria, my favorite, but also a lot of fauna stuff like jaguars. You can spend a half hour in here just looking at the cool photos plus he has a print of more at the checkout counter. The photos are what gives this place the 5 star. Manuel Magana owns 7 of these around Atlanta it seems, hence he obviously has the time to indulge an incredibly rewarding hobby. I am glad to be able to partake of some of the fruits of that. Seriously, eating here is like discovering a hidden edition of National Geographic.

If you want to get regular come here. Good food, fair price, great atmosphere.

My wife and I have been looking for a new restaurant and after checking this one out on Yelp, we decided to try it. It is our new favorite Mexican! The food was excellent (not too bland as often happens when dealing with the general public) and the portions and prices were both good. The photography was every bit as interesting as a previous review said and we will definitely be returning soon!

This is a good, solid hole-in-the-wall Mexican place. I like the fact that they have the typical Americanized dishes, but they also have some more traditional Mexican dishes too. You can get a numbered combo, or a great specialty dish at this place. Some of our favorites are the Mexican Stew, Huevos Rancheros, and the El Diablo. If you're like me, and your food isn't spicy enough unless there are flames coming out of your ears, then go for the El Diablo and tell them you like it hot. THEY WILL DELIVER THE HEAT. If you're a wimp, they make plenty of mild things too :) It's a little on the pricey side for the type of restaurant that it is, but the food is great, and appetizers like guacamole and cheese dip are huge and will serve several people.

Food was decent, the ambience sorely lacking, even for a Mexican restaurant, which usually get a "pass". The inside looks like a Dairy Queen and they should really not take tables at 1:45pm when they close @ 2pm if they arent going to let you eat in peace. We got there @ 145pm--- at 2pm exactly the music gets shut off and all the staff comes to sit around and look at you and wait for you to finish. Awkward!!! I was bummed b/c I was having lunch with a friend I hadnt seen in ages and didnt want to be rushed out the door in 15 mins. Surely they must have sidework they could do or something. I dont think closing for 3 hrs a day is the best business decision, but hey, its a free country.

this is one of the worst mexican restaurants i've ever been to. went with a group, and we were all very dissatisfied. the margaritas were very weak and not particularly tasty, cheese dip was a really weird consistency (though it was not queso fundido), and out of three dinners, no one enjoyed theirs. i had the mixed fajitas.. flavorless meat, and way too many tomatoes in the skillet
(1)James C.
I still love this place.

I'll get this out of the way now: Their Bistec Ranchero is fantastic (and enough for two people). Everything else on the menu is so-so. I wish they put more time into their vegetarian options.
