El Toro - Home for Steaks & Wines - Steak house in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

Amazing restaurant. The front staff are amazing and greet us perfectly. Chef Jaiden make the best steak, and also pumkin soup with scallop and grill prawn, also squid salad. Everythings make perfect TGIF.

Stunning, classy and classic noir vibed dining room with views of the open kitchen. Big, brash sitting booths oozing class. Staff are attentive (but not too much, this is big considering other SE Asian dining experiences), warm and helpful. There is an air of pride which was well received. Food is excellent. We were determined to try the Galician and ended up going for a rib eye - not all cuts were available when we dined but it’s the days before NYE, on a Sunday night, so definitely forgiven. It was delicious, not like other beef I’ve had. A few pieces definitely showed signs of extensive aging, with strong blue cheese funk. Others were more mild but very different from Wagyu or Angus - I would compare it more to a mild lamb flavor. Very good and very interesting. Sides were strong; crispy focaccia entree with a very light pate was delightful. Prices have gone up from what we saw on Google but we walked away with a very reasonable bill for the quality of food and service. I’d get here as quickly as you can before this place blows up and quite possibly, the prices with them. This is a 5-star dining room, really beautiful. Thank you El Toro!

We had an amazing dinner/experience at El Toro. The food was mindfully crafted and tasted incredibly. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. Jaiden, Nga and all the staff were beyond friendly and accommodating. We will definitely come back and highly recommend everyone giving this amazing restaurant a try.

Amazing set menu deal, with free pate + foccacia as an appetiser. The owner and staff were wonderful, so welcoming and made us feel comfortable. We had a very small error with a missing side, but we believe this was just a teething problem. Order the basque cheesecake! Will be going again very soon.

From the moment we walked in, everything about this restaurant was perfect. The food was truly great, with each dish boasting wonderfully fresh flavors. We started with the delightful pate accompanied by their homemade bread, which was an excellent beginning to our meal. We also thoroughly enjoyed the mixed grilled vegetables. the "Octopus-Prawn-Squid" dish, as described on their special menu, and it truly sent out the full, vibrant flavor that the description promised—a truly unique and delicious experience! We also thoroughly enjoyed the mixed grilled vegetables. We especially enjoyed the Op Ribs ANB, which was cooked to perfection and flavorful. What truly set this place apart was the exceptional service. The staff was very attentive, making sure every detail of our meal was taken care of. We were even looked after directly by the General Manager, Rafael, whose personal attention and professionalism made us feel valued and ensured our evening was seamless. A highlight of our visit was when the Chef came to our table. They personally explained details about the steak, served it to us, and then checked in with us in such a warm and friendly manner, which really elevated the entire dining experience. The environment was also lovely. The combination of the nice lighting, pleasant music, and comfortable temperature created a wonderful and relaxing ambiance. I highly recommend El Toro to anyone looking for amazing food, top-tier service, and a beautiful atmosphere. The personal touches from both the GM and the Chef made it truly special. Even the cashier had a very friendly and warm vibe, and was so kind as to help us take photos in front of the restaurant, adding a wonderful personal touch to the end of our evening. We will definitely be returning!
