El Torito Grill

First of all let me say that I did not expect to see that many hispanicos at El Torito Grill.

It was a happy day and a sad one at that, my son had finally tried........ a tortilla........
The sad part was that the tortilla was a flour tortilla. Yeah, yeah, i know, but we like corn tortilla over flour any day of the week (except for burritos, that is the only good thing a flour tortilla is good for).
He took a taste and we waited, he put more in his mouth again and started chewing!!!! For some reason at this point in my life im easily amused. My dish (chicken tacos) has a side dish of beans (i still make them better). I decided that Gavin should be introduced to more hispanic dishes.. Allllrighhhht!!! "sayyyy aaaaaa". He really enjoyed beans too for some reason.
Our waitress was a pro, a pro in a sense of trying to push up the tab, resulting in a bigger tip. "No Gracias". I speak spanish, i know what's up...
I chuckled when she said that she had lost her name tag because my wife questioned her name that she quoted us when being seated to the name tag she was wearing. ayyy ya yayyy, no bueno. I dislike fake mexican food.

Dim sum and some.

Dim sum is great. The only thing that i do not like is when the over zealous servers bring everything at once. Yes i understand that they need to give fast service but what ends up happening is that everyone in your table orders 2 to 3 different things. No bueno since it ends up being wayy too much food.
I personally enjoyed one server that was just the like guy from the movie Mr. Deeds. The spaniard that would woosh right next to you. This server was awesome, i would speak to my son and woosh, there he was to my left making an announcement of what he brought to the table. He would really squish in between me and the other person in the table. Woosh he would disappear as fast as he came to the table.
