Toro Toro — Chef Richard Sandoval’s Acclaimed Pan-Latin Steakhouse Inside the Worthington Renaissance, Where Rodizio-Style Churrasco, Creative Small Plates, and Hand-Muddled Latin Cocktails Transform Downtown Fort Worth Dining
If you’re looking for the most dramatically cinematic dining experience in downtown Fort Worth, look no further than Toro Toro Restaurant at 200 Main St. inside the Worthington Renaissance Hotel — the flagship Texas creation from globally celebrated chef and CIA graduate Richard Sandoval, whose 50-location, four-continent empire has earned him Bon Appétit’s Restaurateur of the Year, a James Beard Semi-Finalist nomination for Outstanding Restaurateur, and Mexico’s National Toque d’Or. Opened in Fort Worth in 2019 and immediately nominated Best New Restaurant in the city, Toro Toro offers a bold twist on the contemporary steakhouse by weaving the bold, convivial dining culture of Central and South America through every course and cocktail. The open kitchen, moody low-lit booths, dramatic bar, and live music programming create an atmosphere that guests consistently describe as the most sophisticated in the downtown core — equally suited to a date night, a milestone birthday celebration, or a power dinner with clients.
The menu at Toro Toro is built around the philosophy that food is a shared celebration, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the signature Toro Toro Churrasco — a Rodizio-style platter of Brazilian wagyu picanha steak, ribeye, BBQ chicken thigh, and Colorado lamb chops, carved and served tableside by your server in a theatrical presentation that TripAdvisor regulars describe as an experience unto itself, generous enough to feed four. Beyond the showstopping churrasco, the menu delivers inventive Pan-Latin small plates designed for sharing: Peruvian-style amarillo ceviche, a smoked swordfish dip with plantain chips, crispy prawns topped with fresh mango and house-made chili powder, a wagyu 10oz steak served with chimichurri, and sides like truffle fries, crispy Brussels sprouts with golden raisins, and roasted carrots that reviewers rave about nearly as much as the proteins. Hand-muddled mojitos, margaritas, and creative Latin cocktails crafted with fresh fruits, herbs, and house ingredients elevate every meal, and the weekend bottomless brunch at $69 per guest featuring unlimited brunch plates has developed its own devoted following.
