El Torito

Open

La Mesa

"the menudo was really flavorful and tasted authentic"
"you must try the deep fried ice cream"
Saturday brunch is about half the price of Sunday

A La Mesa classic since 1954, El Torito does Mexican comfort food with flair: guacamole mashed tableside, fajitas that arrive sizzling, and tortillas made fresh in-house. The weekend brunch buffet is a local ritual.
