Sol Toro - Montville

Sol Toro has a great Taco Tuesday deal with their Taco Special of the day. And if you don't want to leave your meal up to the Taco Tuesday gods, the tacos a la carte are not that much more expensive. Coming in, we were seated by the host and our waitress came to give us our menus. The ambiance is lively and elevated casual. The space is a little more modern but the vibes are definitely for everyone having a great time. We were lucky to have the barbacoa tacos run out and them being replaced with short rib by the time we ordered. Because the kitchen only had enough barbacoa for one order, my partner and I were able to try both the barbacoa and short rib tacos while still paying the Taco Tuesday price (score! . Before getting our tacos, we started our meal with some tasty coconut and mango margaritas and complimentary chips and salsa. My partner swears that the corn chips we had were the best he's ever had (which I might agree with . The corn chips were thin but sturdy and perfectly seasoned without being too greasy or salty. The salsa was good with the chips. Onto the main event: tacos. The Taco Tuesday Tacos also come with a side of creamy savory tortilla soup. It was my first time having tortilla soup and it was so good and creamy and the perfect thing to accompany the tacos. Portion wise, the tacos are big and they are generous with their meat portions. Taste-wise, my partner and I both preferred the barbacoa tacos which had a hint if spice, sweet, and savory. They were also really juicy. The short rib tacos, on the other hand, were more on the savory side and had a more predictable meatier taste. Both tacos were still very good. I also ordered a side of their matcha hot sauce, which I was warned, is very hot. Thankfully my spice tolerance is pretty good, but I would not recommend the matcha hot sauce to an average joe. The matcha hot sauce was surprisingly refreshing and cool tasting but the spice hit the back of the throat, making it very difficult to have it in large amounts. Overall, I've had some really good tacos and I'm happily surprised that Sol Toro's barbacoa tacos could stand up to some of the tastiest tacos I've had. I came to Mohegan Sun to gamble but now I have to reconsider if the main event is the gambling or the eating.

Very good food ,reasonable prices and great service.i had the chicken tacos in a soft corn tortilla shell which I would switch to flour if I returned. My husband had a delicious huge chicken quesadilla.both came with rice and refried beans. Table Chips were delicious and plentiful..other than not caring for the corn tortilla shells we had no complaints. Food: 4

We ate at Sol Toro last night for the first time prior to a concert in the arena and it was amazing! The food was delicious (we had the empanadas as an appetizer, I had the chicken tacos (the best I've ever had) and my friend had the chicken quesadilla--all of it was beyond delicious). Service was great and loved the ambiance. Will definitely be back!!

The food, drinks and service always go beyond expectations. If anything needs to be changed, the servers and management go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction. This last trip included a special menu item for Mexican Independence Day and was one of the best meals we've ever had. I wish they would add this as a regular menu item! Otherwise, we love the fajitas, shrimp ceviche, spicy pina margaritas, burritos, and tableside guacamole especially when Lucia adds her magic. Everything is above par!

With everything going on in the world I've been struggling. However, after trying their corn and tomato salad... I'm gonna be alright till at least the end of the year.
