El Toro is the Tex-Mex default on Garth — a Ybarra family restaurant since 1960, tortillas made in-house, and a green sauce that regulars will defend in a parking lot. It is loud, fast, and better than the national chains sandwiching it.
Weekdays it is lunch onward (11 a.m.). Saturday and Sunday open at 9 for the breakfast-adjacent plates. There is also a Bayway location (7529 Bayway Dr) if you are already on the water; this listing is the Garth room most people mean.
- homemade tortillas
- green sauce
