Service was slow. I don't understand why when there were only us and another table in Who boils chorizo it was horrible it's supposed to be fried whole restaurant was vacant but we was placed near a table of 3 ladies who had the most annoying voices with a disgusting amount of swearing. Waitresses were nice. Will not be returning as its gone downhill the past few times we have been

What can I say, this place has it all. Been a few times and plan on a few more. Service is fantastic from everyone there. If your server is genuinely tied up on another table, the manager will step in to take the next order. Food is always 5-star. Well done all, we'll see you again very soon.

I should have realised something wasn't quite right when my wife and I went in at 1:30, we were the only people in the place. There advertising states that all food is freshly cooked, I think they mean microwaved. There is no way you can cook Zarzuela de Marisco in 4 minutes which is how long it took from ordering to it arriving on the table. As for Chorizo con Sidra don't get me started on that. You never, never boil chorizo in the cider which is exactly what I got, you fry the chorizo in olive then ad a little cider when the chorizo is cooked. It was awful. So our tapas: Gambas al Ajillo. OK Zarzuela de Mariscos. OK Albondigas. Just OK Paella de Carne. Nice Pescara Branch Frito. Just ok Spring Rolls. Nice Jalapeño Bites. Just ok Brochetta de Pollo. Dry overcooked Chorizo con Sidra. Awful First and only time I will be going.

We came here with friends, on a saturday evening. It was out first time here, and the walk down Netherhall road was very pleasent, with all the local restaurant smells mingling. On arrival we were greeted by a lovely lady, who seated us towards the back, in a nice quiet area. The atmosphere was lovely, and u could quite easily forget u were Still in England, and not a quaint little place in Europe. Our drinks order was taken, and we oooh'd and ahhh'd over the extensive menu. We opted for the 'all u can eat buffet' where each person chooses 3 dishes, then 2, then 1, and can keep ordering 1 at a time, until full. I opted for the garlic patata bravas, chilli prawns and halloumi to start. Oh my days!, it was so delicious. Beautiful king prawns with a olive oil and chilli dressing, perfect to dip bread, if so wished. I also tried the paella, the chicken wings, the chicken in white wine, and finished with another portion of halloumi. The dishes that food comes in looks small, but we all ordered different tapas, and was absolutely stuffed! I think we managed 7 dishes each. Definitely plan to come again. For 2 of us, with 2 colas and food came to £58. ??. Definitely value for money. The only thing the group and I disagreed with, was that we were unable to tip our waiter, a lovely young man, super polite, attentive and friendly. He explained he wasn't allowed to accept tips, as management took it from him. We believe if service is above and beyond from an individual, then a tip is deserved

Pretty lacklustre if I’m honest halloumi portion is tiny really tiny. Chorizo in cider sausage was cold and tasteless . Real shame

We had 3 delicious dishes each which filled us up. The dishes were large and satisfying. The rice with pork chicken and white wine, chickpeas and vegetables, lamb stew and chorizo, egg and potato were particular standouts. Service was fast and polite and for 4 if us who had 3 dishes each, a glass of Sangria, a non alcoholic beer, coke and table water, the bill came to just over £20 each which for the size, quality, variety and authenticity of the dishes, I felt was excellent value.

Heard good things and despite being from notts area, travelled with a friend to try out the all you can eat tapas at £24.95, you can pick three dishes each to start, from an extensive menu, then two dishes each then one and keep ordering one each until you’re full. Drinks and puddings aren’t included but are reasonably priced. We ate a range of dishes such as chicken, beef, hallumi, spring rolls, meat balls, pasta, aubergine, potatoes and all were hot, tasty and freshly cooked The staff were polite, chatty and helpful - the street also had several other restaurants that looked worth a visit and so no doubt we will be back to the area.

I'd had a hard day working in Hull and was driving to Stoke on Trent. My journey took me past Doncaster. I headed to El Torero. It was every bit as welcoming as I remembered. The food was amazing.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for the meal my friends and I had on Wednesday evening. We were the group that showed up. We all enjoyed the plates that we were served. Cooked well, served in good time and hot too. The pricing was easy to understand, the way the menu was laid out for vegan/vegetarian, fish and meat options made it easy to select the different plates and especially liked that you wasn't put in a position to waste good, tasty food. hen we return to Doncaster again, we hope to come by again for some more amazing food!

I’d give the food and drink a 3.5/ 10. Bland, over cooked and tiny portions, even for tapas. £25 each for food, and £18.95 for a jug of sangria, mostly ice. Over priced, tasteless, will not go again. Staff were pleasant enough, restaurant empty on a Saturday, lacked atmosphere. Used to be amazing under ‘El Toro’ management, since it changed to ‘El Toreo’ it’s just gone more down hill every time we’ve been.

We visited here for lunch, and had the all you can eat menu for £16. There’s a great choice of dishes, more than any tapas restaurant I’ve been to before. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and the service was quick. The food was amazing, we didn’t go crazy and had 10 dishes between the two of us, which was just enough for lunch. You can have more if you want it, but for lunch that was enough for us. It was fairly quiet, which is understandable for a Wednesday at 1pm. They really deserve to have more people in with such a good menu and bargain price.

We visited on a Friday lunchtime and had the all you can eat tapas menu at £16 ish per person. Greeted by pleasant and polite staff, we were the only customers at the time, drinks order taken, and we were served with complimentary bread and aioli. Fantastic choice on the menu, and after a short time we were served with our first dishes. Good portion size, hot and delicious. For me, the chuletas were too charred, but we really enjoyed the rest. We would recommend this restaurant and hope to visit again soon.

Been going here for a few years now and it’s normally decent food. Ordered chicken skewers and they came out still clucking it was that raw. The guy sat a few tables away then cut into his and it was the same.Manager came over and basically said it happens occasionally. Nice one pal, I’ll spend the next few days on the bog because you think serving raw chicken is fine!!!Manager who claims he’s not the owner but clearly is, he’s the most aggressive man I’ve ever encountered and has zero customer service skills. His staff are clearly scared of him which was extremely concerning for us as customers, I won’t repeat what one member of staff said about him but I felt genuinely worried.This place is slowly going downhill because the “manager” is a bell end. He was losing customers because he was so busy shouting at me for his kitchen staff’s mistake but he didn’t care.

The owner is very hospitable and will do anything to ensure you have a great experience. All the waitresses were lovely, polite, friendly and very professional. There is a really great choice of foods if you like Spanish dishes and or spicy foods. Menu is a little limited for younger children however but our 6 year old still went home full. It had a really nice atmosphere and would definitely go back numerous times.

We visited El Torero on a Sunday night. When we arrived at 8.45pm we were told that the kitchen would close at 10 so we could only choose 5 tapas dishes each from the all you can eat menu (£16) but the cost would still be the same! We were hungry so we decided to stay and try it. Unfortunately the first dish, Paella, was some sort of left over from earlier and had to be sent back. All in all the food was average at best and we felt rushed.

Booked here for the eat out to help out scheme (2weeks in advance) when booked explained that my son had a milk allergy and checked they could cater for him. They agreed they could and there is lots of tapas that is milk free.Turned up on the night... and the manager told us he doesn’t serve allergies due to kitchen size. He was very abrupt with his speaking and told his he refuses to serve my one year old. I explained that I had spoken to someone and he still refused to feed him saying it’s policy and pointing at his menu. After checking the menu it states they can cater for allergies but this isn’t happening. We was then left trying to find somewhere to eat! Avoid if you have an allergy!

Given that it was Bank Holiday we let a few things slide but after 20mins of not getting our drinks an seeing the party after us get served first we weren't exactly pleased. But ya know the little things. Food came before our drinks. Very bland we left the first dishes.We drank more than we ate haha Gave 2 stars because the lamb & prawns tasted great. Halloumi tasted store bought aswell as the ice cream. When we said something we were offered a free round of drinks. Great except they were flat.Recommended by a friend, place has potential just sad about the food.

Went to El torero again after having an amazing meal there last week with family. I took a friend who is gluten free and the staff didn’t understand what that meant despite stating on their menu that they cater especially for gluten free. The service was slow compared to other tables, our meals didn’t come at the same time so we had to wait for our food to go cold to eat together. The restaurant wasn’t even busy so I don’t understand why this happened. The bill was wrongly charged £30 under and when we were honest to tell them they didn’t thank us. Very disappointed after having a nice meal here before and how badly they served a coeliac customer.

Service at this restaurant was brilliant. I had to call multiple times to amend the booking and felt a right pain! However nothing was too much trouble. I really appreciated the call earlier in the day to confirm my booking details were all correct for later. The staff were amazing and I loved how they made an effort to pronounce the dishes properly and authentically (as a Spanish speaker I was very impressed!) We were a party of 10 to celebrate a birthday, needless to say the table got very loud! The staff were very lighthearted and didn’t mind, despite this probably making their order-taking more difficult! I love how the food was fresh to order. Everything was tasty, hot etc. Our only one disappointment was we asked to order more but they never came. Then when we followed it up and asked again we were told we couldn’t order any more as they needed the table back (fair enough) but then when asked if we could order desserts (of which are an added cost not included in the tapas price) this was ok?! All the food was great apart from the crema catalana we paid extra for. This was really disappointing and not authentic at all sadly. Highlights for the food across the table were the lamb chops, garlic prawns and creamy chicken. Non-alcoholic sangria was a nice alternative to a Coca Cola too! Great value for money and friendly staff, will definitely be back for my tapas fix.

We went on to order 2 further dishes and finished with 1 dish each. The food always arrived quickly and was great quality.We ordered more drinks before leaving which again arrived quickly.

El Torero offers an all you can eat tapas buffet however there are rules. On your first round you can order 3 dishes per person then 2 on your second round and from then on only one dish at a time, this means you cant fill the table with loads of dishes which you don't finish. The food is tasty and well prepared with a good choice of meat, seafood and vegetable options. Srvice was friendly but patchy as we were sat outside we were waiting for a long time and a drink we ordered never appeared but we were charged for it.

Booked a table for 7.15pm arrived early so ordered a drink at the bar we got taken to our table and given the menu.20 minutes later someone returned to take our order.60 minutes had passed before any food appeared at the table.Yes I get it was busy but it shouldn’t take that long to serve a table of six. When the food started coming the waitresses were bringing one dish at a time instead of bring a tray each to speed up the already very slow service.The food looked rushed and not presented to the standard we have had in the past.I do think the restaurant was over booked with peopleand to be honest no social distances were taking place as it was that full.A very nice young lad kept apologising for the wait but to be honest I was happy to get the bill and come home.I did say thanks to some of the staff that actually worked very hard but alot of training is needed for this restaurant to get better.Starting with front of house as the manager seemed very incompetent and seemed to enjoy blaming others for his incompetence.I asked 7 times for a pint of water as I was cramping up in the very hot restaurant and ended up going to the bar and getting served.Like I say There was some good points Like the lovely lady behind the bar who worked her socks off and the young lad taking orders.This has been very hard for me to write this as I love this Restraunt but it does need a shake up.

This was the first time in over a year that we had visited and we weren't disappointed. The tapas menu is even bigger than before and the dishes on offer were great. All of our dishes we ordered were delicious with only the liver being slightly disappointing as it was very tough and had clearly been overcooked. I also understand the 3 dishes, then 2 dishes then 1 dish to ensure no food wastage but we felt like we could've eaten another 4 dishes between myself and my partner but were told we could only order 1 more each on our next order. We had to wait a while to order our next dish each so couldn't be bothered to wait around to order another dish each after finishing. However this hasn't tainted our experience and we will definitely be visiting again.

There was a great choice on the menu and I have to say for all you can eat it was very good. The only two negatives were nearly £4 for a pint of coke and the service was a little slow at times.

Visited early evening at weekend and welcomed by staff and sat at table nice and quick. We had some good choices off the menu and can I just say, all were superb. All food is piping hot and fresh, it was a taste bud pleasure. We have visited a fair few Tapas places here and abroad and this is up there with them I would say.Definitely will visit again and would recommend anyone who likes Tapas in a lovely restaurant to try. Just a quick word on parking, there is some round the back behind the Mecca bingo hall that is pay and display. The NCP one next door to Relish is quite expensive if during daytime.But don't let that spoil fantastic food at this restaurant.

Me and my partner always go to this restaurant without fail, the food is sublime, absolutely incredible. The atmosphere is very loving, welcoming and warm. But the best part is the owner, he is the kindest, most amazing person. One of the many reasons we visit this restaurant. I can’t fault anything! We WILL be returning soon!

The food is sensational and always fresh and hot. For your £16.95 it is good value for money. However I take issue with the false advertising. El Torero promises all you can eat but fails to deliver...literally.You'll get your first 3 tiny portions pronto, then a longer wait for next 2 and even longer again for any after that. If you ask for more you get a sarcastic "You want to order again?". The only way I could conceive to get any more food was by other members of my party (who had finished) ordering dishes on my behalf. The staff are not daft however as "round 4" never arrived.The management have a diliberate tactic if you are a big eater which is to slow down the service. I appreciate they would make a loss if all their customers were like me... but this simply is not the case. The middle aged woman on the next table orderd one meat dish and a rice dish because she was on slimming world but still wanted to come on works Christmas do.El Torero are rubbing their hands together when they make huge a profit on these customers but unhappy to make a loss on the bigger eaters.Come on El Torero. Work out what your average customer eats, add your profit margin on and charge that. I would sooner pay £26.95 and genuinly have all I could eat. Much better than £16.95 for all you'll bring me. It's the principle. Unless its truly all you can eat THEN DONT SAY IT IS.If you like a "good meal" you wont enjoy El Torero.

The tapas is really tasty. We have visited a couple of times, and I don't think there's a dish I've really not liked. Nice to have a good vegetarian choice. Great value now that it is all you can eat.

A buffet style tapas so expectations weren’t high but actually hit the mark with Spanish flavours and textures. I would come again.

The service was appalling, we waited a long time to get our food, we were given the wrong dishes and the man taking the orders told us that if we weren’t happy too bad. The one star I’ve given is for the food. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone

We absolutely love this place the food is just amazing and we highly recommend it even if you’ve not had tapas before! This time we managed 6 dishes each and left stuffed! For £16.95 a person it is more than value for money!

If you live in the area or just visiting Doncaster you have to visit El Torero . The food is absolutely amazing and there’s a great variety of cocktails. I had the el torero ice tea! It was delicious. The food was so tasty and exceeded our expectations . Attila ,aka Leo the waiter , was so helpful and kind and made us feel like at home.

If you want amazing food and fantastic service, then take time out to visit El Torero. Myself and three friends called in one Saturday afternoon after drinks and were all served amazing tapas with top class service. Leo was attentive and courteous, the food and drinks were amazing.

Having been on many occasions, this place never fails to deliver. The staff are lovely and attentive and the food is by far the best Tapas I have had in Doncaster. I have visited others previously but this is now my go to place. Very reasonable prices between the al a carte menu or the all you can eat menu considering the quality of the food served. If you want Tapas and you haven’t tried this place, make it your next visit. You won’t be disappointed.

A rainy night in Doncaster did not seem promising but the staff and the food here made the evening quite magical. The variety of Tapas style dishes available and the reasonable prices combined to more than make up for the dismal weather

After originally booking online, we saw a disclaimer stating any waste would incur an extra charge, as neither myself nor my girlfriend had tried tapas before we decided to cancel, I phoned up and spoke to a really nice gentleman called Leo, who assured me that as it was our first time not to worry about any extra charge and he would be working that night and give recommendations on what to try so i decided to keep the booking, this was a mistake. Upon arrival we were met by a man called Ren, he was arrogant and not very welcoming straight from the start. When I mentioned about the extra charge if we didn't like something his response was "well we accept no waste" to which we replied “we have spoken to the manager and he said as it was our first time there would be no charge” Ren then grumbled something and walked away. We ordered two drinks, and then the first three dishes, while we were waiting we watched the barman make a cocktail drink for a customer then stand behind the bar and drink the remainder of what was made, with Ren. First 4 dishes came out, one of which was clearly cooked from frozen and not fresh like they say however, the food was still nice.

Very nice food. Some dishes were a bit bland or a bit chewy like the chicken and pork skewers however all the other dishes we had were really nice and filling. One negative was there was a very large table with about 15 odd people. We got 3 dishes between 6 of us and then for some reason, the larger table then got their dishes so we were waiting for the rest of ours whilst 2 of us were eating. Wasn’t really organised well. After this though, service was great. We will return and would recommend it.

From the moment we went in to the moment we left we were made to feel like we were valued customers, a tapas delight £13.95 each all you can eat, freshly cooked as you order, great lamb chops, prawns I could go on everything was delicious, staff were attentive but not pushy , proper nice eating experience, wish they had one in Blackpool.

I took my daughter and two friend to Doncaster for the weekend and stumbled across this place. We went in for dinner as the menu outside look very reasonable. Once enter we were greeted my Rachel Walker, who immediately made us feel welcome. After Rachel discovers that we were there celebrating my daughters birthday she couldn't do enough to make it special. when the girls ordered mock tails, she set the cocktail bar up for the girls to make their own, with the help of Sam and Josh ( who were a big hit with the girls) the food was very nice and at a reasonable price. Thank you Rachel for making my night easier . Tracy

I can’t recommend this place enough and I simply can’t thank Josh and team enough for their help. Back in summer I booked for a December group birthday in, Josh was amazing explaining all the options we had, always on hand at the end of the phone during planning. On the day, absolutely everyone complimented the venue, the service and the amazing carvery! Overall the biggest compliment was about the food! Highly recommended - you won’t go wrong here, you’re in great hands.
