Toro
About
Toro is a Spanish tapas restaurant in Boston’s South End known for its Barcelona-inspired small plates and energetic atmosphere. The menu, created by chef Ken Oringer, features hot and cold dishes designed to be served and enjoyed tapas-style, so a meal is shared across the table. The restaurant presents itself as the work of chefs Oringer and Jamie Bissonnette, and it bills the food as award-winning Spanish tapas.
Toro has been open since 2005, a history it sums up with the line “partying like the Spanish since 2005.” The Boston Globe has called it the place that started many Bostonians’ love affair with tapas. Alongside the food, the beverage program features classic-inspired cocktails and an eclectic, carefully curated list of natural wines, rounding out a menu built for sharing.
