" It's clear that El Toro Loco is passionate about their food. The shrimp curry and the garlic fries were highlights for me – both were delightful! The staff were friendly, although it took a bit longer than expected for our meals. The ambiance added to the dining experience, making it feel unique and personal. I can see why people come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I was excited to try this restaurant, I sadly left disappointed. The portions were small, which didn’t quite match the prices, and I was hoping for a more authentic taste of Peru. The yucca fries were good but my main dish lacked seasoning. Service was polite, but efficient service alone cannot make up for uninspired food. I may return in hopes of finding something more to my palate. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to be honest, my experience at El Toro Loco was a bit hit or miss. While the ambiance was cozy and the staff welcoming, I found the food to be lower on the authenticity scale, especially the Mexican dishes. My companions enjoyed their meals, but my burrito lacked flavor and appeared less fresh compared to the Peruvian options. Overall, a decent experience, but it may not be my go-to for true Peruvian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm thrilled I discovered El Toro Loco! What a surprise to find such deliciously authentic Peruvian dishes so close to home. I particularly liked their seafood offerings—quickly prepared and satisfying. The service was prompt, even during peak hours. I experienced a lively atmosphere filled with laughter and great food. Great value for great memories! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a remarkable find! El Toro Loco impressed me with its hearty portions and authentic flavors. I ordered the Lomo Saltado, and it transported me back to my grandmother's kitchen. The service was equally charming, with staff who genuinely cared about our experience. I'll be returning for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! I visited on a whim and couldn't be happier with the discovery. The traditional Peruvian dishes here remind me of home. The seafood was exceptionally fresh, and I highly recommend their Ceviche and the Arroz con Marisco. Portions are generous for the price, and the staff is friendly, making the experience that much better. I will be back soon for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Seamlessly blends Peruvian and Mexican cuisine! My family and I tried a variety of dishes and shared the experience wholeheartedly. The shrimp tacos were a highlight, and the fish ceviche took me right back to my last trip to Peru. The friendly staff made suggestions that truly elevated our meal. While I felt some dishes were slightly pricier than comparable spots, the authentic flavors made up for it. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)
