The 37 Best Restaurants in St. Louis, Missouri
"St. Louis is home to many stellar Mexican restaurants serving tacos and chicharrones, but for truly beautiful and monstrous tortas, head to El Toluco. Attached to a small tienda in a nondescript strip mall in the suburb of Manchester, the restaurant has become a destination dining spot. Tortas are made with football-sized freshly baked loaves and filled with meat, queso fresco, Oaxacan cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and jalapeños, all punctuated by a smoky chipotle sauce. If that’s not enough justification to make the lengthy drive to West County, the pollo con nopales and lengua tacos are also exceptional." - Holly Fann, Joel Crespo
