| - Toro Latin is a new restaurant that occupies the space that was once the TPC Grille, overlooking the TPC golf course, and with a small outdoor patio that benefits from green grass, a lake in the background, and our beautiful Arizona sunsets. The food and service have to compete with nature, and they both did so successfully on our visit.
Our group started with a couple of salads (the Toro Salad is huge), and the crunchy shrimp, all great especially the shrimp. The filet was a fine cut of meat and perfectly done, served with three sauces, the best of which was the chimichurri. The salmon was a huge chunk with a great sear, and the snapper was perfectly done but maybe lacked something in flavor.
Prices are high -- this is a resort restaurant -- but not outrageous.
I'm pretty picky, but I really can't find anything wrong with Toro Latin. But I'll be back to keep trying.
PostNote: Came back in February 2016. Still can't find anything wrong. Ribs also very good. One small point - you can make reservations for sitting outside but they may not honor it when you get there, such as if a large party calls and takes the entire area.
