El Torito Mexican Grill
4012 Riverside Dr.
Burbank, Ca 91505
A decent though not impressive Mexican chain restaurant. It has parking, and the food and service were not bad, and the food was not bad either. Nothing I would recommend, but not bad if you really want Mexican food. Actually we wanted to go to another restaurant nearby, but it was packed so we went to the bigger and less packed restaurant. The margaritas were OK and so was the food.
Well the hot sauce is weak as hell, but the Cadilac margarita with a shot of Grand Marnier was decent and not too sweet.
For dinner I wimped out and got the Tex Mex dish, a Chicken Fajita. It was decent, though only had 3 small tortillas, and the veggies were mostly onions with one or two pieces of Red Pepper, and the guacamole was mostly a chunk of hard avocado. it wasn't bad, but nothing special either.
My girlfriend Kelly and I ordered a desert that was supposed to be a brownie with ice cream on hot tortilla strips, but it had almost no ice cream and unlike described had a huge dollop of whipped cream, and also a huge chunk of Flan which I hate, so I was not too impressed. And what is up with it being different than on the menu.
Again, not horrible, but not too bad. A mediocre Mexican chain restaurant.
