There's always a fiesta at El Toreador. Chile peppers, bird cages, airplanes, and Mexican flags not only decorate the walls, but fill every nook and cranny of this family-friendly Mexican joint with a festive spirit. And it's not all show. We love the Maria Félix pinups and the assortment of 56 Latin American beers, but it's the heaping plates of plump, garlicky, Veracruz-style shrimp with peppery grilled onions that we rave about. It's the tingle on our tongue from a rich pumpkin-seed mole and the smokiness of the juicy carne asada that we remember most. Top it off with a decadent mango-passionfruit margarita, or maybe two -- El Toreador is only a few, happy stumbles away from the West Portal Muni station.
