In Short
Torero's is known for its fresh, tasty, and "pretty authentic" Mexican food--as well as its casual atmosphere. Torero's features traditional Mexican fare, filling without being quite as heavy as the combos at other local cantinas. Torero's has a great bar with a good liquor selection, Mexican beers, huge margaritas, and just the right festive atmosphere.

Entering Torero's puts you in the mood for munching on Mexican. The decor appears to be traditional Mexican, and the food may be somewhat Americanized, but, well, most customers are American! The menu offerings are tasty and inexpensive, and business is usually brisk, especially at lunch time.

If you like sitting in a booth with a view of five TV screens on at least two different stations then this is the place for you. Absolutely tasteless food will compliment your aural experience of trying to sort out the various TV audios versus the piped in hispanic music. English is also not understood here very well. All in all, don't bother - go to El Rodeo instead.

The prices were excellent. The food was quite tasty. My wife had the chicken fajitas and they were excellent. Big portions and perfectly prepared. I had the chicken carnitas de pollo and it was wonderful. The salsa and chips were decent - the salsa was a little bland. The service was very good. We were seated promptly and attended to regularly. My only gripe was that our waiter didnt really seem very personable, but thats only a minor quibble. We havent been to too many Mexican restaurants since moving to North Carolina, but this sure beats the overpriced Margarets Cantina in Chapel Hill and the generic On the Border chain on 15 501 in Durham.
