   Tacos and omelets were very tasty, food on the buffet line was fresh and replenished often. Our server Daizy was attentive and very nice. We will visit for Sunday brunch again.

   I recently went on march 9th and got two adult brunches which include, bottomless mimosas and complimentary pancakes but our server didn’t ask us anything or mention anything and didn’t mention anything because it’s HER job to say something. While other of her tables were served with mimosas and those pancakes.

   I have visited this location several times because it's close to our home. We went for Valentine's Day last night and made an Open Table reservation in advance. We arrived at 7:30pm (our reservation time) and checked in, the host let us know we would be seated shortly. Twenty minutes passed, and I checked with the host and was told I would be seen again shortly. Another 15 minutes went by, and finally, we were told we were the next party with a reservation to be seated. Our reservation was at 7:30pm, and we were seated at 8:25pm. I like El Torito for the ambiance, food, and drinks; the waiters are always accommodating. The front staff and management had difficulty with the number of walk-ins and reservations.

   Went for Sunday Brunch RESERVATIONS RECoMMEDED. There were a lot of people outside waiting to be seated I had a reservation for 2 and was seated right away. The restaurant was VERY crowded and Noisy. There were plenty of stations opened around the restaurant with different selections to choose from. the food was good there were enchiladas, rellenos, soups, salads deserts, and much more to choose from. there was a taco area also. Like I mentioned it was very crowded if you do not like crowds then I would go elsewhere. I think when they closed the Westminster store the people came to the next closest El Torito Cypress. At Westminster they had a courtyard where all the food was displayed at Cypress it was in the entry way in the restaurant in the bar area. There is outside seating available if you want. will I come back Maybe. Remember to make a reservation

   Good food at a great price in a welcoming atmosphere. We shared the family fajita platter and everyone loved it. The chicken tortilla soup was also outstanding.

   Gloria was a fantastic waitress! She was very attentive and even recognized my birthday by bringing me a little square of carrot cake and singing for me. The food is always good too, it’s one of my favorite places to eat.

    We had a very good time on Christmas Day. We were glad we made reservations mid-afternoon. Food was good along with the service. When we left there was a long line of people waiting to be seated.
