Three Generations Of A Nevada Family Have Owned And Operated The Legendary El Torito Cafe


There’s just something special about a meal that’s been passed down generations, where the town has grown to find comfort in an establishment they’ve known for so long. El Torito Cafe is the place to be for good food and good times. Stop by this Henderson, Nevada eatery to experience great recipes perfected more than 50 years ago today.

With a translation meaning “The Little Bull,” El Torito Cafe’s flavorful Mexican menu comes at the tastebuds full force! The restaurant is located off of the Boulder Highway in the southern region of Henderson.

Current owner, Gia Colletti, said that it was the dream of her grandparents to open a Mexican restaurant in the valley. Her dream came true! Diners have since raved about the menu and friendly ambiance, enjoying mouth-watering recipes passed down through three generations.


El Torito Cafe offers an inviting atmosphere with colorful Mexican and Southwestern motifs. Hispanic culture and love of family can be felt throughout the establishment, from the owners to staff and satisfied guests.

Patrons can choose from a wide variety of Mexican dishes. Guests go on and on about the chips and dip, enchiladas, rice and beans, and burritos among other delicious options. El Torito Cafe’s mouth-watering recipes are prepared fresh daily.

Classic Mexican tacos are a must, especially during Taco Tuesdays! The restaurant cooks with fresh ingredients and a heaping spoonful of family pride.


Don’t forget the dessert! The perfect way to cap any meal is to savor something sweet. Try the churro or deep-fried ice cream and you won’t be disappointed.

If good food comes from folks who cook with love, then look no further than the El Torito Cafe. It is a sure stop for authentic Mexican food, dished with multi-generational history, and loads of homestyle flavor.

To visit the restaurant online, see their Facebook page.
