Taqueria El Torito - Kansas City

The food here is great if they get it right. If you speak Spanish, great. If not, you might not get what you ask for. Some workers understand better than others and if you get the right person then you're in for a treat. Hits the spot when I'm craving Mexican food. The restaurant itself needs an update. It's toasty inside so I recommend takeout. It takes awhile for your food so calling ahead is always a plus.

Soon as I learned they had Gorditas, I about kissed the waitress. This place has authentic Mexican Food. Not gonna lie, I was a little disappointed in my gorditas. While the tortilla itself was delicious and crisp, the carne in it was a little bland. How about some salt? Sal? Maybe give some Lima? I will say, their salsa is out of this world. They have several different salsas, with a verity of heat levels and taste. This place is a little better than your average American Taco Shop, where the food taste like it comes from north of the Missouri River. This place seems to serve food from the Rio Grande. Also, this place is a Taqueria. It’s not your local Mexican restaurant. If you have visions of your local Mexican joint, your perception will be wrong. There is no American Flare here… Rating 6.0
