Chile Toreado — high-caliber mexican in Bridgeport. This is cooking with real conviction. Friendly without hovering. Christina Ewing: "The hongos enchipotlados was incredible as a starter"

“The staff was kind enough to indulge us with a sample of their green pozole with chicken, which was fantastic and flavorful”
Only giving 2 stars because I was given guac and wasn't expecting it. Worst tacos ive ever had.

“Ive been on the hunt for good Carne en Su Jugo and heard Chile Toreado was the best.”
Ive been on the hunt for good Carne en Su Jugo and heard Chile Toreado was the best. Let me tell you, they weren’t lying. The carne en Su jugo was so flavorful and delicious. The steak is good and tastes charbroiled, which I love! Only thing I wish was that it had more broth, so it could be more soupy. This was more like an Entree, but still delicious nonetheless. I also ordered tacos & rice and beans. 10/10. My daughter had the kids Milanese and mashed potatoes, she loved it!! Everything was cooked to perfection. I think it’s safe to say this is one of the BEST Mexican restaurants I’ve had.

“We had our backyard-wedding party catered by Chile Toreado and couldn’t be happier.”
We had our backyard-wedding party catered by Chile Toreado and couldn’t be happier! We live blocks away and they’re our favorite neighborhood restaurant so it was extra special for them to be part of our event. Everyone had high compliments of the food and owner Jaime and family helped make the day a great success!

“Muy buena la comida.”
Muy buena la comida. Food was good. Ordene un Mexican Skillet y estuvo rico. Las bebidas que probé fueron limonada y un café de olla. Ambos me gustaron. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Prices are very reasonable. There’s scaffolding and construction on the top floor but the restaurant is open. They bring you two sauce types, red and green. I loved the green one, didn’t get to try the red one though, next time I’ll try that one.

“The food is always delicious and the service is great too.”
The food is always delicious and the service is great too. The vegetarian enchiladas were goooood, the torta (chicken milanesa) so yummy and the Tlayula sooo good too. We all also had their fresh flavor water of horchata and Jamaica. The atmosphere was so comfortable. Great place to have a good and jolly meal.

“The Enchiladas de Mole, Tacos, Barbacoa with Mashed Potatoes and Choco Flan all had really great flavors.”
The Enchiladas de Mole, Tacos, Barbacoa with Mashed Potatoes and Choco Flan all had really great flavors. The flavors were balanced well. 4:30-5pm is a great time because service was fast, calm atmosphere, and very homey. If you are visiting, make this a spot to eat. You won’t be disappointed. Something extra about that Choco Flan, the chocolate cake melts in your mouth and the flan had great density. Thank you for a great experience. We will be back.
