Toro Place Cafe

Standard American cafe. Lean Reuben sandwich. There was nothing over the top about the meal. The staff was nice but the waitress was impersonal. Not that I needed any ‘how u doing sugar?’ Patronage. She had a mouth full of food when I entered the front door where there was a strange bar she stood behind and a separate register off to the right with another attendant. They rocked and rolled through orders serving folks efficiently. The outside patio looked nice and casual. Definitely an above average maintained diner with clean restrooms. It just felt out of place with such a busy Highway by the front door and weird parking by many folks. Something tells me that this whole area had a different vibe during John Steinbeck’s era. I should have checked out that museum in Salinas.

Great no-nonsense food served by two delightful waitresses. I’m happy we stopped at this out-of-the-way roadside eatery. Excellent food.

Always a go-to spot when in town. Cinnamon rolls and Huevos Rancheros are amazing. You really cant go wrong with this local gem.

I love this little place. It's always busy for a reason. Their french fries are outstanding, and honestly, I've never once ordered any meal that wasn't excellent. I love the Sierra Melt. Kid's menu is nice & inexpensive, and the staff is lovely. Parking is tough, but that's expected at a popular hole-in-the-wall sort of place.

My husband and family go here a few times a month for either breakfast or lunch. Wonderful, relaxed atmosphere & good food. Their chili verde is sooo good. (They usually only have it on Fridays though.) And their freshly made biscuits and huge cinnamon rolls are amazing!! My kids particularly enjoy their milk shakes. They give back to the community every year by hosting a toy-drive event too. Love the owner & staff!!

It was one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. I got the double western. it was great! The staff was nice and provided top-notch service.

Absolutely wonderful place to stop, it wasn't too busy so I had my order within 15 minutes. Everything tasted fantastic and I found the atmosphere very welcoming.

Best breakfast place around! The Toro plate was amazing. Potatoes were perfectly cooked and everything is home made including their delicious biscuits and lemonade. We didn't realize that our server was the owner till we saw his name tag. Josue was always smiling and on top of things as was his crew.

Great breakfast spot. We shared an Ouellette with bacon and avocado, and one of their huge cinnamon rolls.

Our Senior group loves this place. They like breakfast. I like the lunches. Tasty home baked desserts.
