El Dorado Mexican Restaurant

"Everyone needs to come here. My wife had the fajita taco salad and I had the pulled chicken taco salad. They were both excellent beyond belief. The meat was plentiful as were the beans and cheese. The taco bowl shell was fresh, light, and crispy. The service was excellent as she was attentive without being annoying. We will definitely come here again when we are in Gainesville."

"Food was absolutely DELICIOUS and portions were HUGE! And the prices!!! Such great value for what you get. I was also very appreciative of how clean & nice it was inside. Service was excellent and I love love the artwork on the booths and tables!"

"This was clearly a Chinese restaurant with colorful paint added to make it feel like a Mexican restaurant. When you walk in the smell of musty, dirty mop water hits you in the face. Ceiling tiles look moldy and falling out of the ceiling. There was water on the floor coming from the women’s bathroom, have no idea if this was coming from a toilet or sink. Against my better judgment I ate here anyway. Service was five stars. Food was pretty good. Not the best I’ve ever had but not the worst either. However at the end of my meal is when I noticed all the baby roaches crawling around on the floor next to the table. I wish I would have saw those first. Absolutely disgusting. How has the health department not shut this place down."

"The soup was phenomenal. The rich broth was loaded with flavor and it was served with lime, avocado, chopped red onion, and cilantro on the side to add as the diner prefers. A pinch of the red mole added a great kick of spicy and smokey flavors. Entrees are served with chips and salsa, which has a fantastic flavor and consistency. Within walking distance of several nearby hotels, I would highly recommend it for travelers."
