   Booked for a night with friends, x3 meat eaters, and x1 vegetarian. Quick friendly service. Loads of food to choose from. Tapas portions arrived hot and quick and were quick to take the next order, too. Nice atmosphere that didn't intrude into the conversation. excellent choice, and I will be happy to book again.

   Overall we were disappointed with our dining experience at El Toro. We were seated upstairs where the atmosphere was a little flat with lights that were too bright. Service was variable, one waitress was attentive but the other was inexperienced and would benefit from some customer service training - not smiling, asked to remove plates when we hadn’t finished, then left the plates for a good 20 mins after we had finished. When serving dishes to customers it’s better to say the name of the dish from the menu rather than ‘chorizo and chips’ for picadillo or ‘chips and garlic sauce’ for patatas aioli (neither dish has any chips).. We ordered 5 tapas between 2 of us. The food was average and not as authentic as hoped, with small servings, The estofado was tender but a mix of Spanish and Greek flavours with cinnamon and chickpeas (not authentic Spanish), and not a lot of meat. The alioli potatoes didn’t have homemade sauce and the calamari was chewy with coating that looked like it was cooked before, or not at the right temperature. We really wanted to enjoy this but at £9 or £10 per tapas it really wasn’t good value.

   It’s ok, quality isn’t great - lots of frozen-fryer stuff (beige cheese squares etc) and very low quality bread that made me sad.. Music and lighting pretty weird for a tapas restaurant. Not a Spaniard in sight. Won’t be returning. Plus side is it’s in a nice location…
