A glass enclosed keg room with 16 different draft beers, a three-story glowing tequila tower surrounded by 80 varieties of tequila, and a wall of hand painted sugar skulls from Mexico are just the beginning of your experience at Torre! The margaritas are the freshest you will find – made with fresh squeezed lime juice – and the five different types of guacamole come made-to-order for your whole table to enjoy. Our menu is perfect for sharing: why choose from house-smoked pulled pork nachos, Prime skirt steak and citrus tequila shrimp fajitas when you can try it all? A variety of gluten free items, vegetarian dishes and a Kids Menu with a twist make Torre a place everyone can enjoy. Top off your meal with one of our delicious desserts – like churros, tres leches cake with avocado ice cream and Mexican hot chocolate – or grab a seat at the bar to taste a flight of premium tequilas. It’s a Mexican fiesta with a modern twist that’s fun, bold, and upbeat: a must-visit in the Lehigh Valley.
