Make sure you have your facts straight before reporting on this stuff. As somebody close to the situation, this is grossly false.
This report is accurate and spot on. It is not wrong. That place is disgusting. It’s always dark in there for a reason.
Food Sucks, Management Sucks, They’ve let this place go down, it’s a shame.

A few years ago they were featured with Gordon Ramsay and had similar infraction and turned things around…seems to be an issue with restaurant that are family owned. Fix things for a while and here we are again. Been going there for over 35 years and then sum.
Restaurants get closed all the time. It’s not the 1st time nor the last time. The food is great and I’ve never seen a bug. I’ve been a regular since the 90’s. I’ll be back when they open again.
I love Los Toros, Nick the owner stand up guy and a true American hero .
