El Toro Cantina & Grill, Inc.
1917 Nicholasville Rd
Lexington KY United States
A beautiful Mexican cantina and grill, which includes an outdoor dining area under roof, complete with painted wagon wheels. The restaurant occupies approximately half of the existing building, which at one time, long ago, was used in its entirety by another Mexican establishment, Casa Galvan, and, in the early 1960s by Matthew's Restaurant. When first entering El Toro, one faces a multi-colored chalkboard which features daily specials and select entrees. Mexican art is everywhere. Some of the chairs and tables up close to the windows are of genuine Mexican construction. At the rear of the restaurant, one finds faux bottles of some of the finest tequila and other libations, artfully filled with colored water to keep thirsty patrons honest. It is a formidable display, and quite inviting. (The real bar can provide much of what the display doesn't.) Both booths and tables abound.
