"Toca Madera is a “modern Mexican steakhouse” on W. 3rd Street that’s packed to the gills every night with people who clearly love hanging plants and food that tastes like nothing—because that’s all you’ll find here. We’re at peace eating lackluster food at clubstaurants (we expect it, actually) but Toca Madera doesn’t have any other fun elements in play to distract you from the fact that you just spent $16 on one scoop of sour guacamole or $22 on an al pastor taco with a tortilla that crumbles when you pick it up. If you want to meet someone for a quick margarita at the bar, this place will suffice. Otherwise, there’s no reason to come here. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
