    Would give 10 stars if I could! One of the best dining experiences Ive had in NYC. Incredible food with good portions and beautiful presentation. Wait staff was super friendly and informative, loved our server Ava and the excellent attention she paid to us. Will definitely be recommending to friends and absolutely will be returning here next time Im in NY.

    What sets this tapas place apart is that theres far more elbow room. You can actually hear your conversations! The food is delicious and theres a good set of cocktails. Service is a bit slow, even when the place isnt packed.

  • Review 3 (2019-04-06 - Rating: 5)

    This is a great restaurant. Came here as part of a bachelor party weekend and it was a blast. The service and food was exceptional. We had a wonderful tasting menu which was arranged in advance. The restaurant is unique, a little out of the way, but definitely worth it.

    This is more than a restaurant, it is a dining experience! Specializing in spanish tapas (small plates), Toro brings the flavors and excitement of spanish cuisine to Manhattans East Side. First off, the key to a great spanish tapas restaurant is fresh ingredients; of which I cant reiterate enough how fresh everything was. But what really set this place apart is how all of the little things they did made each dish come to life!I started with dates, stuffed with goat cheese and wrapped in bacon. The goat cheese added just the right amount of funk to stand up to the sweetness of the date and saltiness of the bacon. And the crisp bacon counterbalanced the creaminess of the cheese and the soft texture of the dates. Absolutely insane!The street corn stands up to any corn Ive had anywhere in the world. Again, as fresh as can be! Great char, creamy aioli, sharp cheese, and a squeeze of lime to add an acidic note to cut through the richness of the aioli and cheese.The octopus was the second best Ive ever had in my life. Octopus tends to be chewy but this was anything but. It was as tender as tender could be! It melted as soon as I took a bite. And the charred onions that were served with is had a great acidity and bite that didnt overpower the subtle octopus, but instead complimented it and enhanced the flavor.Empanadas were great; but even these were elevated with an insanely fresh and unique salsa verde unlike any Id had before.The steak was cooked perfectly, it was amazingly tender, and again, the accoutrements set it apart! From the charred onions underneath to the crazy-good chimichurri, everything on the plate enhanced the flavor of the meat and gave textural balance to the dish. Every bite was balanced and amazing.And best of all, the bone marrow. Ive eaten my fair share of bone marrow and this was by far the best Ive ever had. It was seasoned just to the edge of perfection. But the best part is that they paired it with fresh oranges and radishes and served it was amazing sourdough bread. The bread had the perfect blend of flavor, fluffiness, and crunch. The orange gave a perfect sweat counterbalance to the saltiness of the marrow and seasoning. And the radish gave a fresh pepperiness that carried the whole bite through. It was simply perfection!Once the meal was over the waiter brought over a shot (and by shot I mean about 2 and a half shots) of cherry and used the bone from the bone marrow dish as a luge to give me a shot on the house. And quite honestly the flavor profile of the cherry mixed with the meatiness of the residual bone marrow and seasoning was another trip to flavortown to end a perfect meal.All that to say, this has quickly become my favorite restaurant in all of Manhattan. Its priced well, great atmosphere, fresh, amazing, and inventive food, and a true culinary experience. This is more than just a restaurant, this truly is the flavors and culture of Spain put into a dining experience. If you havent been, go!

    Kitchen bar is where you can see all the action. Staff are super friendly. Food is great. Perfect place for gathering and romantic dinner

  • Review 6 (2019-05-18 - Rating: 4)

    Get some modern tapas and cocktails in a revamped warehouse with whole cured hams hanging from the ceiling. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Although the food was OK, and their fileté is a very good deal, if youre looking for genuine Spanish tapas there are better places in Chelsea. Cocktails were surprisingly good.

  • Review 7 (2018-02-20 - Rating: 5)

    Great tapas! Especially love the Galician Octopus and Sashimi dish (I forgot the name). Great interior - great for romantic dinner or group dinner

  • Review 8 (2019-07-26 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing every time we go. Brought my girlfriend and her cousins here the first time I met them, one of her cousins was so impressed she had her next birthday here. That speaks volumes about this place, if you come by Toro everyone will walk away with a wonderful feeling.

  • Review 9 (2019-03-06 - Rating: 5)

    Great dishes, amazing paella and jamon and excellent service. I had a great experience here.

  • Review 10 (2013-03-07 - Rating: 4)

    Loved this place - its a great after-work option, with a buzzing atmosphere and very cool, post-industrial decor. The small plates were delicious as well - the mac and cheese is amazing, but the artichoke salad was also delicious, and the lamb sliders were great too. Really high standards on the cocktails too - I had something delicious involving champagne.Wait staff kept bumping into me when they walked past, but that may have been in some part due to the small space at the front of the restaurant... overall Id definitely recommend it.

  • Review 11 (2020-01-21 - Rating: 4)

    We had our holiday party here and it did not disappoint. Huge menu and everything was delicious. The bottle list was very well done but the glass list was lacking. We went on a Thursday night after 8pm and we were all surprised at how quiet it was.

    Mother’s Day brunch, with fab food and service by Annie S.

  • Review 13 (2016-09-13 - Rating: 4)

    Fun spot for tapas and paella. The food is good. The drink elections arent that creative yet theyre expensive and weak. The food is good but hard to share with more than 4 people.Nonetheless, the food is well priced and its a nice after work atmosphere.

  • Review 14 (2020-02-14 - Rating: 5)

    What a fantastic meal! Great space accompanied by very good tapas. The staff was exceptional at handling my gluten allergy. I found many options to eat and they worked to make it the best experience possible. The octopus was very good and the trotter was a definite must order.

  • Review 15 (2018-11-13 - Rating: 5)

    Beautiful ambiance and bar. Great to enjoy with friends or a date. Food was very tasty, and I would definitely go back for the paella and grilled octopus! Entrance is located on the corner and up some stairs, not too obvious, but once youre in, its a nice venue. Service was excellent!!

  • Review 16 (2017-04-11 - Rating: 5)

    Probably my favorite Spanish restaurant in the city. From the food to the drinks to the service. Never once been even remotely disappointed. Good for family dinners but better for friends or work dinners. All the usual tapas fare but just on a higher level and some nice surprises along the way. If your alone or just in a pair, sit at the grill bar and chat with the cooks, they are a blast.

  • Review 17 (2020-02-22 - Rating: 5)

    I had a wonderful time. The staff was attentive and placed my guest and I in a great quiet area during the busiest hour, noting that the guests near us were conversing loudly. The chef prepared a fresh octopus for us and the waiter was very knowledgeable of his wines. Just a heads up!!! if you have a food sensitivity please make sure your order doesn’t have raw items and mixed meats. I ordered the caviar qual egg with sea urchin, and got a horrible food poisoning. My guest did not, proving this was purely a personal issue and not the cleanliness/freshness of the kitchen.

  • Review 18 (2013-06-19 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious, cozy, and friendly staff! Willow Road is a perfect addition to the Chelsea area. One of my favorite things about Willow is its a perfect place to have a great meal as well as just hang out at the bar with friends. They have amazing specialty drinks such as Romeo Blue and a nice selection of draft beers. If you havent checked this place out, I recommend you do so. You will not be disappointed!

  • Review 19 (2019-07-19 - Rating: 5)

    Great place with some pretty unique tapas plates - the workers are all very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu items. The cocktail options are pretty unique and creative as well. Overall was a great experience, definitely recommend if it fits your price range.

  • Review 20 (2019-06-03 - Rating: 5)

    Truely excellent dining experience. Came for a dinner with one other person on a Sunday night. We had the white Sangria and several small plates and a paella half portion.Mid range on pricing, great ambiance and very authentic cuisine. Gambia’s are a MUST.

  • Review 21 (2014-10-17 - Rating: 4)

    Cocktails and wines are terrific. Food is fussy and hit or miss — burrata and orecchiette dishes are excellent, bass is very good, as are the roasted beets and fried artichokes. Heirloom tomatoes and fig dishes were strongly flavored and not our favorite. Decor is chic and beautiful. Service is friendly and accommodating. Small plates mean prices add up quick.

  • Review 22 (2016-07-08 - Rating: 4)

    Very good Spanish food in a great space. High vaulted ceilings and a split level floor plan combine with a good selection of music to create a fun and lively atmosphere on the west side highway. Diverse menu of well prepared and creative dishes.

  • Review 23 (2019-06-08 - Rating: 5)

    We had a wedding here back in March. The venue and wedding package food are spectacular. Heather was amazing, accommodated every one of our requests and coordinated everything from the moment we booked to day of- she really is extremely easy to work with and aims to please. Countless phone calls, emails, checkins, agreeing to last minute changes, you name it she was awesome. Wife and I were impressed with everything- not a single hiccup all night. Excellent work by Heather and staff. Highly recommended for a unique, top quality NYC wedding with character and top service!

  • Review 24 (2019-07-07 - Rating: 4)

    Delicious tapas and paella. A bit expensive thought. I guess its for special occasions.

  • Review 25 (2013-01-25 - Rating: 5)

    Looks like a low key spot from the outside (right under the high line), but amazing atmosphere and food. Must try the fried chicken and mac and cheese. Doest get too crowded which is nice. Good place for 2-4 people.Try some of their whiskey too!

  • Review 26 (2013-06-18 - Rating: 5)

    Willow Road is the perfect place to hang with friends at the bar, go on a romantic date, or just having delicious meal with a group of people. The staff is friendly and approachable while the food has an elevated approach to some of my favorite dishes. I recommend it to everyone!

  • Review 27 (2019-04-08 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing!!! The food is out of this world. The Duck was my favorite, followed by the bone marrow. With that said, everything we tried was top notch. And we tried around 12 different dishes. Love, love, love Toro. Cant wait to go back.

  • Review 28 (2018-08-30 - Rating: 4)

    Did was great, staff was exceptional. Bar staff was extremely slow when we arrived but as soon as we sat the server was quick to make sure we got everything quickly. Recommendations from the waiter was spot on! Highly recommended the shrimp.

  • Review 29 (2015-04-12 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 33 (2015-01-15 - Rating: 4)

    DEAL MEAL:smoked duck drummettes: as many as you can possibly eat.bottles of red wine: as many as you can drink.lobster and truffle paella was overrated, in that it didnt have much flavor once you finished the lobster and truffles.service was awkward at times but ultimately still friendly. better at the bar.they also played 90s hip hop which was pretty muffled by the loudness of the venue. thats not a complaint.

  • Review 34 (2018-05-07 - Rating: 5)

    Fantastic food and service! For dinner, ask to sit at the front of the restaurant and not near the bar section as too dark.

  • Review 35 (2017-07-18 - Rating: 5)

    Was amazing, ordered several small dishes and not a single one disappointed.

  • Review 36 (2014-10-01 - Rating: 4)

    This is a review regarding the private dinning room of Toro.The short of the matter, a very intimate space with a complex backdrop provides a more than inspiring environment for food, drink, and conversation. I am a huge fan of the tree / foliage installation on the wall. The theme was heavy on the concrete and inset lighting. Tall ceilings and an overtly weathered metallic look provided a modern vibe with a skew towards the old Meat Packing district feel. The cocktails were tasty though nothing in the realm of a destination for mixology, but solid.

  • Review 37 (2019-10-16 - Rating: 5)

    Cutest restaurant in NYC! Good food and great ambience

  • Review 38 (2014-08-29 - Rating: 5)

    You have to get the foie gras here. Simply spectacular. The veal sweetbreads were also delicious, and the smoked duck drumettes and blowfish tail were also pretty interesting. The bone marrow was unfortunately a bit too greasy when eaten on top of beef cheek and fried bread (as suggested), but the presentation was pretty wow, and they were very thoughtful about ordering the dishes for a good overall experience. All in all a surprise hit considering the anonymity of the door outside.

  • Review 39 (2019-09-19 - Rating: 4)

    Stick to the tapas and grab a porrón for a good time in this upscale spot, well suited for parties and a clubby environment. Toro is a great spot to kick back and have fun, with a spacious bar area and a reasonable, yet tasteful bar list.

  • Review 40 (2015-11-16 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 43 (2013-11-10 - Rating: 4)

    Toro is a new Spanish style tapas style restaurant in the meatpacking district that offers great ambiance and mostly memorable food. The space is lush, open and inviting from the moment you walk in. I tried two cocktails, the first with mescal and apples was ok but lacked subtlety, however the Verdad y Amor which consists of tequila, hibiscus and ginger hit the perfect balance. As for the tapas themselves, most were excellent with my favorites being the peking duck drumsticks, the salted spicy shishito peppers, perfectly seasoned garlic shrimp and the creamy cheese covered corn. Bit less enthusiastic by the tomato bread, the ham wrapped figs stuffed with blue cheese and the oddly chewy pork belly with apples and rutabagas. Be sure to round out dessert with their signature churros accompanied with an orange chocolate dipping sauce.Bottom line: A great traditional tapas restaurant in a gorgeous space but a bit overpriced and overhyped in terms of the amount and quality of the food.

  • Review 44 (2019-09-25 - Rating: 4)

    Loved the vegetarian options out there, its mainly for non veg people but has good amount of vegetarian options too. I tried the corn tapas which has corn and cheese in it which was really good and also tried one potota tapas having fried potoatoes like potato weggies, the service is good, we also tried the red sangria pitcher which was good for 5 people taking 2 servings of a glass. The quantity portion is less but this is the typical at a fine dine restaurant like this, overall i liked it.

    I want to say that Andrew and Taylor change my mind about toro the service is wonderful. Andrew is such a sweetheart and so attentive with the customers. My husband and I are regulars there and the service Taylor offer us is amazing. Btw the food is insane delicious we love everything on the menu. Andrew continue making those delicious new cocktails 😘I just moved to Boston and I go to the toro here is amazing as well. But can wait to go back to NYC and visit you guys thank you. Danny & katie

    Didnt think I could ever love another restaurant like Toro Boston. Toro NYC is right up there! Same commitment to attention to detail with respect to service, environment, fresh food presentation and pallatte pleasing, unique taste in every bite. Restaurant, plate sizes, and tables are larger - and according, prices are higher. My only question....why is my favorite Mexican Street corn OFF the cob?

    This place was a great meal. Everything we tried was good. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to try some variety of things. The octopus was tender and great flavor. The interior was very nice.

    We hosted a group of 13 from work and the experience was fantastic. Great service and the food was delicious! One person was lactose intolerant and the Toro team was so accommodating to her needs bringing her her own version of the courses. Highly recommend this place.

    No photos tonight, but everything was picturesque. I hosted four guests for tapas night. Absolutely phenomenal! Steak to sea to earth - deep flavors and great variety. Drinks fantastic too. Try the Pizza Night!

    Maybe the best meal Ive ever eaten. The bone marrow was so good I wanted to rub it in my hair. Everything was delicious though, and the service was great. We took the suggestion of our server, and he nailed everything, right down to working around some dietary restrictions. Ill be back the next time Im in NYC!

    Place is amazing! The food was beyond fantastic, the atmosphere is very nice, its any thing you want it to be when meaning attire. If you wanna dress up fancy go ahead, or just wearing jeans and a button down. Also perfectly fine.

  • Review 117 (2018-07-26 - Rating: 5)

    The staff was very warm and welcoming, and the food was SO good. I recommend the bacon wrapped dates. I normally don’t like blue cheese but it went well with the other components of the dish. The paella was so flavorful that we asked the waiter to keep the dish on the table, even after everyone was stuffed to their limits. The corn was probably my favorite dish— it was crunchy and creamy. The white sangria has tequila in it, which may seem peculiar at first, but it was so delicious. If you are in the partying mood, I suggest getting a porron and asking a waiter to demonstrate it for you.

    A really high class Spanish place. Youre going to pay a good amount but everything we had was delicious. Definitely get the stuffed bone marrow, it was extremely hearty and flavorful.

  • Review 120 (2016-12-22 - Rating: 5)

    Truly a great, great place. Unbelievable food, staff, and wine. Dont listen to a loser named Asaf when discussing Spanish things. These types of ogres are never happy and dont know anything about fine dining in the Spanish way. They have poor manners yet dont think it is fair when they get it back worse. These people are barbarians in the truest sense- not part of decent society. Toro is hip, smart, delicious, and fun. Youll want to return and will have a great evening there. Notice this imp is the only one with poor remarks. Clear evidence the problem was this little man.

    One of the greatest restaurants in the city. Amazing selections of cocktails and super yummy food. If you’re going with 2 people, I highly suggest the counter top seats where you can watch the chefs prep your food!

    Came with a group of 7 and we all had a great experience. Service was attentive. The vibe of the restaurant is trendy without being snobby. As for the food, the steak, paella, octopus and duck drum legs are great.

  • Review 126 (2019-08-04 - Rating: 5)

    Almost everything on the menu was great! They try to accommodate allergies and the service was great. Dont forget to check out a night in Kokomo cocktail. A rather interesting and a very tasty concoction!

    Toro is a top 5 favorite restaurant in the city for a fun night out with clients or friends. Always lively with dozens of interesting plates to try from. Ive enjoyed bringing friends here since they opened a few years back. A MUST GO for a group. Plus, Porons! !

  • Review 130 (2016-03-04 - Rating: 4)

    Two memorable dishes were the grilled corn and the mussels with chorizo. The rest was really good, I just cant remember everything we ordered. They have some rotating specials which are worth a try... the night I was there they ran out by 8pm.Overall I liked the atmosphere of the place and the service was very attentive.

  • Review 134 (2016-02-09 - Rating: 5)

    Great place for everything from a dinner date to a group outing. If you can sit at the chefs table, and watch how beautifully dishes come together. Skip the paella, stick to the tapas.

    Spanish tapas restaurant in the end of an old warehouse. All the items are delicious. They have daring things for the daring and easy classic too.

    Willow Road is that rare combination of cozy neighborhood vibe, excellent and innovative food, and cool & unpretentious scene. I go there about twice a week since I work in the neighborhood, and always bump into old friends or meet interesting new people. Willow shakes things up by keeping it simple.

    Excellent food, though the prices are fairly high. It also wasnt the most casual place, but that can either be good or bad depending on who you are. But overall, it was an excellent place with great food!

    I came in last night with some friendly against my will. I HATE eating in this neighborhood. Meatpacking restaurants are pretentious, stuffy, and the food is never worth what you pay for it BUT.This place was warm, friendly, cozy, and DELICIOUS. We spent over 2 hours eating and drinking and laughing and the vibe was just right.A much needed addition to the neighborhood.
