I was at the restaurant last weekend. Ot wasn't very full and I was a little worried that like places that serve Saturday night food should be a complete good. But anyway, I and my boyfriend decided to eat something. The place itself looks good, there was a smell of food when we came in (good sign! The staff was cozy and). We ordered shrimps and mussels as a seafood paella for the start and the main. The food was delicious! I loved mussels and shrimp! Incredible taste and very fresh, you can try every piece of it. Paella seemed amazing and knew even better! I recommend this place especially for seafood lovers!
Super dinner!!! the very cozy room, friendly staff and fun, divine food! we ate the good tapas but the strong piece was the paella, really delicious!!!!!! all seasoned with sangria and Latin music.. a little bit of Spain in London! lovely, we will definitely return and highly recommended; Ps. at the end of the meal ask of Karamelwodka, you will not regret it...
The Bull called 'Loco' (the "crazy Bull), you can see within a few minutes that this place is the whole place! How on earth the manager put me in this business is beyond it is clear to me to see this restaurant not for long with the way it is managed. Considering another business perhaps, Mr.Director?First I would like to emphasize that I have been in this restaurant before during the years but only when it was called 2 NX under the old direction. They gave me a noch service, always leaving a tip and the food was always tasty. I am full of praise when it is due, however I highly recommend avoiding this restaurant. I'm really impressed, even today and it's the day after! This experience was unfortunately much more negative, which is a disappointment, considering the food had been reserved for a special family birthday that had been so expected. We booked a table for a large group of us, called us in advance to reserve and confirm that they had the facilities to host such a large group. The director confirmed that they were able to satisfy a large group, and told us he didn't understand it was for a birthday. In addition, it was confirmed that it is not wrong to divide the account between groups of people who attended and that there would be no problem with this.It could not have been more disappointed. We arrived on time as reserved: 19,00 .He did not greet us at all; they do not appear at our table and definitely did not make me feel very well received, so it must have been a positive and very happy experience. I was surprised that in a privileged place like Ealing Broadway, the service coincides with the expectations of the area.The restaurant seemed to be quiet west of London for a Saturday night restaurant. With some of the other tables full, it didn't seem like his most frequented night. This seemed odd to me, as I thought I was going to be more crowded by Valentine's Day. I'm starting to think about the shameful service is why not bring as many regular customers as you should. After about an hour, I had to approach the bar to ask if we could order food and drinks. They left me for five minutes waiting with no visual contact from the very rude waitress, who then looked at me like I shouldn't be in the bar. I've never waited a long time for 3 simple juices. There was no urgency, but it seemed that the staff was busy preparing to do ... nothing! incompetence come to mind ...Finally we came to order our last meal 8.15 h was not clear that we had to go and ask so there was a lot of walking around which a disaster looked, and ruined the experience in general. This place is not suitable for big parties. Given that I had confirmed the size of the previous group to attend, it was clear the staff kitchen/, etc., were totally disorganized we had food coming out at 8.30 ; 8.50 and finally my food arrived at 9.30 .I am sorry for its length, but I need to inform others of the absolute dislike I feel following that horrible service!My food came after 9.30 pm considering that I had asked in 8.15 , I was almost hungry and waited! Taking into account the menu was described as 'tapas', you can expect small dishes. However, this was not small, there were 5 pieces of squid on the plate next to some dried salad! I managed to have some visual contact and so I told the manager (very educated as I always care about personal will do something to my food if not). I was told that it was once a small portion to wait for more than an hour and there anything could be classified as a hunger I had. His answer was precisely this: 'Well, you know it's a busy table there are more than 20 people and I have other customers to serve. What, three orders? It's just one. It's not a main dish. ».I am disappointed by the pure daring that I could not speak. The manager left without any other communication any apology for the wait and the fact that he felt he needed to be sarcastic towards me went beyond. It is worse 15 minutes later, the same director himself approached my part of the table; he crashed a dish with a lot of squids, and we walked away.I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe 60 my mother's birthday had been torn apart unforgivably someone so rude. This was the manager, to get yelled! I don't consider myself a difficult customer, to be nice, and to be a little competent and I always propose. I can see so many people restaurants get there and the worst thing is to have more pressure for someone who is to make their work harder. But the reason he wrote this critique is to warn people about bad service, and for those who try this restaurant in the next few weeks that you will see that I am completely just about the service.He was so offended by his nasty attitude that he could not even eat the pile of squids (which he had thrown on the plate and crashed at the table). I had to leave the food because my appetite had disappeared something that never experienced as a meticulous enthusiast.I guess it's because they can't attend to groups about the size of... I'd say... 10 people. I advise the manager in the future to restrict us to a 5 8 maximum group table. The food to the GREAT lagoons of the left interval some people with the snacks and main dishes together, while some people do not get their main dish or for about an hour.
The food at this restaurant is outstanding, especially considering the price. I recommend trying the tapas offers for a variety of options. The char-grilled chicken is delicious, and the homemade sangria is fantastic! It is a family-owned establishment, so the service may be a bit inconsistent, but the owner often interacts with customers. The cocktails are also noteworthy. Definitely worth a visit!
I love decoration, service, food, drink and atmosphere here. 2 NX is a comfortable family member to hang out where you can have a coffee and read the newspaper, an all-out British night or a tasty meal with tapas candles. It really is like a home away from home, with comfortable sofas and personal talker and their chips and The garlic mayonnaise are to die! They even have live music some nights that is essential with a glass of red wine!!!

Now called El Toro Tapas. Ordered the lunchtime special, paella. Looked and tasted amazing. Great value for money and two free glasses of sangria. Wonderful meal. 10/10
I visited the restaurant last weekend. Ot was not very busy and I was a bit concerned that as for Saturday night places that serve good food should be full. But anyway, me and boyfriend decided to have something to eat. The place itself looks nice, there was a smell of food when we entered (good sign!! and staff was welcoming. We ordered prawns and mussels as a starter and seafood paella for main. Food was delicious!! I loved mussels and prawns! Amazing taste and very fresh, you could taste every piece of it. Paella looked amazing and tasted even better! I would recommend this place especially for seafood lovers!
We never visited this restaurant when 2NX but in January decided to visit as alternative to usual Tapas restaurant in Ealing as change name and under new management. We were surprised at how warm a welcome we were given and the food was excellent. We have visited two since then and standards and food quality is still the same. Great addition to good quality restaurants in Ealing and definitely would recommend and visit again. Nice work
If you're looking for a place to eat or have a couple of drinks in Ealing, 2nx is the place to go. Friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Would definitely recommend to anyone around the Ealing area.
I come here very often as it's quite local to me, this place is exactly what you expect especially after its recent refurbishment, 2nx now renamed to El Toro Loco is a great place for a girls night out especially on live music nights which is now on a Tuesday, I come here often for quiet work drinks or for a few cocktails with the girls, the staff are so friendly and it just feels like home here, the energy is so positive and lively that you never want to leave. Music nights are incredible and does get busy so I would suggest to arrive earlier and enjoy something off their new tapas menu.

Friendly, well-run restaurant. a huge fan of tapas and this place is top kitchen!
A jewel in ealing broadway! great eating, fantastic drinks and the best and friendly staff! Wednesday is a highlight of the week with regular live music by fantastic musicians. I recommend it!
Poor quality eating with very overpriced wine. order half liter rioja. but not seen label at a price of £14.95 tapas very bad.
