Yummy food that's organic AND available 24/7!!!
I first came to El Dorado because of all of the billboards that say "organic Mexican food." At first glance, my expectations were pretty low. I mean, come on...it's attached to a freakin strip club and it's open 24 hours. When I think of restaurants that are open 24/7, I immediately expect the food to be similar to the caliber of Dennys.
Wow, was I wrong! I can't say that they serve authentic Mexican food, because the food I ate in Mexico was definitely not as pretty and did not have as much variety as El Dorado has. El Dorado has managed to find the midpoint between authentic Mexican cuisine and healthy. I don't know how else to explain it. It's simply healthier Mexican food. One of the bartenders explained to me that the entire restaurant is 80% organic. I also love that they offer so many veggie options. I've tried a lot of their menu, but my two favorites are the Chicken Tinga Tostadas and the Veggie Burrito. My boyfriend is a big meat eater and he ALWAYS orders the veggie burrito because it truly is THAT good. Of course their tableside guacamole is a must as well! Most of their entrees come with beans and cilantro rice...OH EM GEE....the cilantro rice is sooooo addicting. I'm drooling right now just thinking of it. It really should be called butter rice because that is the more prominent flavor, but I guess cilantro sounds cooler.
Depending on what time you go, you may see some drunken idiots on occasion. I look at these occurrences as free entertainment, but the staff is usually really good at diluting situations before they become too much of a nuisance.
