Torito Grill — Restaurant in Pearl River

My family recently dined here for our son's homecoming crew pre-dinner meal. I had never heard about this place before and I had low expectations going in, but the food was just really REALLY good, and I left very surprised. The menu is not super large which was refreshing because at typical Mexican restaurants the menus seem as long as a Cheesecake Factory menu and gives me analysis paralysis. I ended up deciding on the "Tacoberia" tacos (I think?) which are your typical iberia-style tacos but BETTER. The plate was comprised of crispy fried corn tortilla shells filled with juicy and tender slow roasted beef with fresh red onion and cilantro topping served alongside the tastiest and most savory consommé au jus I've ever had the privilege of enjoying. Let's not forget the refried beans, which I've never really liked ANYWHERE, but THIS was actually delicious for the first time ever! I was so surprised, and I nearly licked my plate clean. The service was good. Our waitress was friendly and made repeated stops by our tables to see if we needed anything and kept our drinks filled. The wait time on the food was a bit longer than I anticipated for what seemed like a slow night (there appeared to only be about 3 other tables occupied) but if waiting an extra 10-15 minutes or so is the cost for a meal THAT good and freshly made then I'll gladly pay it over and over again (to be fair though, our party comprised 12 people, so the additional wait time was probably due to them trying to bring everyone's meal out at once). The restaurant is not very large, probably 10-12 tables or so, and there are several TVs hung. Our table was placed right in front of a TV playing a college football game. The volume was a tad bit loud and made it difficult to hear our conversation sometimes, but it wasn't so bad that it warranted me asking to have it turned down (and maybe I was just having sensory overload). Anyways, I have to believe that I will be a returning customer soon to this gem. My compliments...

Hi everyone. I recently learned about this small family restaurant new in Pearl River,La. It is a nice place and the service was great. The restaurant decor is nice and was spotless, I tried their Monterrey Pollo chicken plate. It was a winner. The chicken was delicious and seasoned well, and the mixed vegetables were fresh cut and grilled perfectly. They were a very happy surprise since most time when a menu's lst fresh vegetables there from frozen. Totrito 10 Grill vegetables were fresh and delicious well served. Please do yourself a favor and order a serving you'll really enjoy them.. I definitely will make ths a regular stop on...

I visited Torito Grill expecting standard Mexican food. But, I was thoroughly impressed!! I tried one of the specials, Jamaican Chicken, and boy was it delicious!! The chicken was perfectly cooked juicy and tender, and the veggies were very fresh! I ordered the steamed veggies as a side they were fresh, not frozen/watery/bland. They were fresh and tasted simply amazing! I also ordered the guac salad and it was fabulous as well. The salsa was on point! That was the first time I have had such fresh food at a Mexican restaurant I will defintely be going back! . Probably for...
