Toro - South End

I am generally against tapas bars because I love large portions of food, but Toro is where I go for cheap drinks. Can you say $1 tall boy PBRs? Plus they have great sangria and a good range of other drinks. I'll admit I have tasted a few of the tapas here and they are great, but I would not come here on an empty stomach unless you have a full wallet--after all it is a Ken Oringer restaurant.

I suggest the smoked duck "drumettes" with rhubarb and the seasoned corn, both make great bar snacks. beware of the hummus though, it was too cold and served with a few tough slugs of bread.

Toro is an ideal place to go after a meal in my opinion. You can split a pitcher of sangria or take turns buying rounds of PBRs for a cheap night of drinks. My friend Mike visited from New York recently and it was a good place to catch up on things.
