Taqueria El Torito

2724 Cherokee St.
St. Louis, MO 63118
314-771-8648
It may look like a grocery-store cafeteria (which, technically, it is), but once you're sitting in Taqueria El Torito with a bowl of complimentary homemade soup in front of you, you'll feel as cozy as you would in Mom's kitchen -- if Mom were Mexican and knew how to cook like nobody's business. Tacos and tortas (overstuffed sandwiches) are sure to satisfy your craving for a hearty lunch or midday snack. For a treat, stop by for the weekend specials: mole con guajolote (turkey legs in a smoky sauce tinged with unsweetened chocolate) and the surefire hangover cure: menudo.
