“ - The decor is synonymous with what you would find in a rustic, norteño setting. Situated in the corner of a small plaza, this Mexican restaurant is large, with plenty of seating. Very busy, but the service was reasonably quick. We were seated almost immediately, had our coffee in no time. We came for brunch. My flour tortilla had an authentic homemade taste, which I enjoyed. We ordered a plate that had a variety, to sample the staple foods. The barbacoa had the perfect ratio of flavor and texture, not greasy at all! The menudo was not as good as the one mom makes, but it was good, for a typical Mexican restaurant grade. Their coffee was good. We kept accepting the server’s refills. Their menu has plenty of selections to choose from for any time of the day. We will definitely be coming back to try the lunch menu. ”
“ The food was delicious and the service was great, very satisfied, love it ,its my regular place to go, AND THE BEAUTIFUL EMPLOYEES ”
“ If you want great Mexican food you need to try this place! Got served with some chips and salsa and queso as a starter. We ordered the taco quesadilla with fajita plate and the El Dorado panchos. Both of them well served,) as you can see in the picture and the fajitas have been one of the best I've had in a while. Great place, good service and prices. Highly recommend El Dorado! ”
“ We loved the botana platter for two. It was just enough for two big guys and probably enough for 4 average size people. It comes with a nice serving of rice, beans and guacamole , but very few chips and cheese. We also got two onion rings and two fried zucchini. We had beer with our lunch and it was very cold, so that was a plus. The wait staff was attentive and the place was nice and cool. Very comfortable. ”
“ 30 plus years in business this local honey hole serves it all. Extensive menu covers breakfast through lunch, dinner and homemade desserts. Quick service with a smile and great food. Don't miss the Caldos! Awesome place. I recommend and will return. ”
