Toasted Brunch Bar + Cafe, the newest concept created by owners of El Toro, opens there doors today for a soft opening in the space formerly occupied by Melt Bar & Grilled at the Mall at Fairfield Commons in Beavercreek.
Enrique Alvarez, El Toro’s district manager shared that “as a local family we want to stay in the area, so we continue to create new restaurant concepts to allow our family to have new opportunities.
Last year they added El Toro Express, near the Dayton Mall and mentioned they are currently looking at a potential 2nd location in Kettering. After 20+ years in the business, with Toasted I might actually get to see my kids before they go to bed at night.”
They’ve totally remodeled the 5000 square foot interior space, giving it a light and bright atmosphere. They’ve used their travels abroad to bring back menu ideas and flavors they are not found on local menu’s and look forward to sharing these items with the public.
Alvarez’s favorite menu items include:
Loaded Bagel Sandwich – over easy egg, sausage, bacon, hash brown toasted with may and a side of mixed greens with house vinaigrette or home fries
The Bavarian – Artisan sourdough bread, bratwurst, breakfast sausage, mozzarella cheese, carmelized onion, mixed greens, toasted mayo and a side.
