El Tornado

My wife found this store/ restaurant online we read the reviews and decided to go and check it out and it did not miss! First and foremost the people are super nice very friendly and answered any questions we had. The food is no doubt probably the best in stanly county and you get alot of it. Steak quesadilla, al pastor tacos and al pastor torta was what we ordered and it’s cooked to order these men and women really deserve all the reviews in the world and I highly recommend this place 100x over. Thank y’all for a great experience

This is a hidden gem for Stanly county. The folks running the shop were very friendly and helpful. The little grill in the back serves amazing food. The tortas are absolutely massive, and full of flavor. I would recommend this business to anyone!!

My family and I have gotten food from here multiple times now. Fantastic tortas and quesadillas! Food is always made to order, hot and delicious, and full of flavor. This past time we placed an order, we asked if they had any guacamole. They said it’s not something they had on the menu all the time but they could whip some up for us - holy cow, it was THAT good! Give this place a try, you won’t regret it.

So delicious I rarely eat out Mexican food around here but I love el tornado tacos!

Fantastic! My whole family is hooked. The torta sandwiches are delicious and huge, and the tacos come fresh and hot right off the grill. Just walk to the back of the store and everything will be made fresh to order for you.
