The best place. Don’t eat any where else in town. Try the house salsa and hot sauce.

Great spot when I’m traveling alone and I wanna roll up to the bar for a drink and order anything from the kitchen (at the bar). Legit Mexican food and everyone is super chill. Sports on the TVs.

The bowl of soup was enormous! And delicious! My wife enjoyed her tacos. The local (Humboldt) Blurberry Ale was awesome. Great service. We'll be back. Great house salsa and chips too

Great food! The staff is extremely friendly. We showed up 30 minutes before close and was sat immediately with great service! Check this place out! Prices are around 16. They have a lounge in the back of the restaurant. When you're done eating, you can finish up date night with a few drinks. They also have drinks to go

I’d post a picture of the food but that’d mean I’d have to take a few seconds before stuffing my face. The number 18, a grande chicken burrito, 2 pacificos, delicious. Only eat here when you come thru town.

We were craving Mexican while we were visiting Crescent City and Toreros really satisfied us. We got the Lime Margarita, Taco Salad, and a pork dish. All were very yummy!

Dinner was delicious!! Casual Mexican dining. Hours are 3pm to 8pm. We were seated right away. Staff was friendly and great service. One of the house specialties is the chili Verde. So husband choose that I had a shrimp and vegetable dish. Husband says best Verde he has had in years. The shrimp dish was wonderful! Would definitely go back!! Gem!

let me begin with our appetizer, the Super Nachos. A combination of all the classic delicious toppings and a melted cheese mixture that I want to eat on absolutely everything for the rest of my life. In fact, I absolutely devoured those nachos with help of the company i was with (mostly me). Left me with just enough room for my chicken chimichanga combo, that which was perfectly portioned, filling, and delectably savory. the service was exceptional. the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. with a beautiful wood carving of a seagull placed in the center of the dining room. If you find yourself in the beautiful city of crescent, i highly recommend for an absolutely wonderful dinner experience. Toreros Famosos was a dream.
