    I had a reservation for 7 pm on a Saturday. Showed up and they were closed. Not even a reason posted on the door. No mention with my reservation confirmation

    We have enjoyed the tacos, cocktails, and ambiance at El Dorado a handful of times before. This time was no different. The queso and guac made delicious starters. The Crispy Avocado taco was the birthday girl’s favourite, while I favoured the fish and pulled pork tacos. Try the purple rain sour- worth every penny. Attentive service. Great birthday evening out!

    Great good and service. Best guacamole ever! Yummy margaritas. Fun decor. Very accommodating as they quickly and seamlessly moved us to a quieter table away from large excessively load party.

    Great food, and the ladies loved the margheritas ... the tacos were superb but might have been less messy with double shells.

    Husband and I’s first time and it definitely won’t be the last. Cocktails, appetizers, and tacos were all excellent and back with great service from our awesome server. Well done and we will see you again soon.

    A delicious meal before we went out to a nearby show. The drinks were perfect (try the el Dorado marg!) the pulled pork nachos was smoky and sweet and the meat was melt in your mouth tender.

    The food is overpriced and very bland. Open kitchen with stuff everywhere. $15 for guac and tastes like it’s not even homemade and zero seasoning Very disappointing to be $100 for Chips & Gauc, Tacos and one drink each This place is a slow bleed, not worth your money
