Want to give a big thank you to concierge - Alexis and Luzbieth for going above and beyond to get our group of 20 (celebrating our parents’ 55th wedding anniversary) a reservation at Toro one evening. We originally stood in line for 1.5 hours to ensure we could get reservations. We were second in line. When it was our turn, we were told it was too difficult to accommodate such a large group. Disappointed, we turned to concierge. A couple of hours later, concierge reached out to say they could make something work. The meal at Toro was wonderful! Our wait staff - Cris and team - were outstanding!! Cris was truly amazing and made our parents feel like they were very special guests. That meant a lot to us! Read less

Waitstaff in Faro was outstanding. Food was always fresh and yummy. Highly recommend. We purposely asked to sit in Brenda’s section each morning because she was truly awesome. Omelettes were always fantastic and the taco station was superb for breakfast and lunch.
