History
El Torero Mexican Grill was opened in Cape Girardeau in 1992 by Daniel Alvarez. His hope was to bring authentic Mexican cuisine to the Southeast Missouri area. The Cape Girardeau restaurant was a success and in order to satisfy customers, Alveraz expanded El Torero Mexican Grill; opening locations in Jackson, Perryville, and Marble Hill. For more than 24 years, El Torero Mexican Grill has been serving the Southeast Missouri area and has remained the number one choice for Southeast Missouri area diners for authentic Mexican cuisine. El Torero Mexican Grill's festive atmosphere, friendly service, and authentic dishes makes the dining experience special. Come visit us and see why El Torero Mexican Grill remains the area's favorite Mexican restaurant.
