Toro, especially, is a local legend. It is located in a totally nondescript mini strip mall in a mostly residential neighborhood just north of Tapiola. Spartan is really an understatement as far as the decor goes, but the portions are epic. And the steaks are pretty good -- as long as you are not expecting something like Morton's or Ruth's Chris.

Highly recommended.

Cheers,
