This was our first time to Planta, everyone was wonderful. The server walked us through her favorites along with the most popular menu items. Everyone we encountered appeared to be having fun working there. We look forward to going again and trying other offerings.

We got sat 5 minutes after we arrived and we were early. They tried sitting us in a little 2 seat booth but I’m a bit bigger and it was uncomfortable so they gave us a table. The food was excellent and servers were nice.

My wife and I are empty nesters with my son and his wife being nurses. Their schedules have them working the holidays. So, going to El Torito for the holidays has become a very cool thing for us to do. My wife and I enjoy the food and the appreciate the service for Christmas (on Christmas day, no less). Ricardo has been the best server we could hope for. Always keeping our mimosas filled. No complaints.
