Torito - Mendoza

Finally a perfect place for a vegetarian/steak lover pair! Relaxing atmosphere with excellent service. A wide selection of local wines by glass and professional help in choosing a perfect one. My husband had a really good steak and I had a vegetable burger. The prices were also reasonable. We had a really great last night in Argentina here, would definitely recommend.

Popped in for a menu of milanesa napolitana. Ordered a few empanadas as suggested by our beautiful waitress. All lush (although I should be super picky the tomatoes salsa on the Milanesa should have been stronger and more interesting). Nice salad. She offered us a dessert as part of the deal, but honestly, you would have to roll me home if I had eaten it, so a coffee instead. I liked the facility inside. Nice and shady on the street. Would definitely recommend.

El Torito has a modern interior and gives him a quick opportunity. In the menu: assado. As an appetizer and then a NY strip steak (bife de chorizo) we went for a narrow grill. The steak was a little overcooked and the vegetable side dish consisted mostly of fried potatoes. Overall:not bad, not great.

We wanted to eat very early and El Torito was open all day. A good choice, we ordered the grill for two. Certainly a large part, it was really cheap for the amount of food she serves us. Imperial beer, even really cheap! Very friendly staff. No accusations, but a decent experience.

We ordered 2 burgers and fries. The meat tasted old and it was really dry, the bread also tasted moldy. The fries were ok and good portion. While we were waiting for the food they served lil pieces of bread with homemade mayonese, the bread also was moldy. We do not recommend this place at all, even there are reviews that apparently the food was good and its not! Better options in town, even the Burgers in Pizzaiolo are better than this! Plus the prices in here are so expensive comparing to other places!!
