El Matador Restaurant

"I don't think I could have been more disappointed visiting this location. The El Matador in Ogden was some of the best mexican food around, but this was bland, boring, not hot, and just completely and utterly disappointing. The service was even slow, with a bunch of young kids chatting around the store instead of checking on tables or even apparently running the food since what we had was cold. The enchiladas I had were somehow cold and burnt at the same time because the tortillas were hard and barely edible on the sides. I can't believe how poor this location was compared to the one that used to be in Ogden, I'm so disappointed that it closed and somehow this location stayed open. I would highly recommend the staff see how to add more flavor into their food or look into their previous location to see what magic it had that they are obviously missing."

"Well-- needless to say we will NOT BE BACK. I let the server know that the Jumbo Shrimp was not satisfactory, and it was on the rubbery side like it was overcooked. $7 for one Jumbo Shrimp to be served with ketchup and mustard. The owner came over to address my request to have this removed from my check and she usually is really nice but today was unfortunately a different story. She said she trusted her chef who said it was not overcooked and she was taking his word. She spoke to me like I just asked her for her life savings to be wired over to my account. When we asked about the sauce, she informed us that this is HIGH END cocktail sauce, and this is how "you people" mix it with ketchup and mustard. I addressed the "you people" comment as I don't know if she meant black people??...but I, myself and I am sure none of my ancestors have ever in life mixed Heinz together to make cocktail sauce. The soup was..rather salty, but I did not want to complain too much at first as I was already addressing the shrimp... but when she asked, I let her know it as well. The flavor of the soup was actually good, but it was just heavy on the salt. If I was not already on the verge of possibly sending my blood pressure anymore higher with the salted soup, I probably wouldn't have left until it was removed off my check. The salsa seemed jarred as it usually has more of a blended salsa texture this was like out of the jar salsa. If there is one thing, we have always loved about this place it has been the salsa and something was very different. It was really watery, and it spilled across my hands when the server set it down. I have always had a good experience prior to this but honestly my table will never be back. The way the owner addressed me was confrontational and it was just very embarrassing and not professional."

"Our server Logan M. Was great. Very attentive and quick to offer refills and another round of chips. Food was served hot and fresh. I would recommend the fajitas they were amazing. We ended the night with some churro bites which were a 10/10. Also very clean area. Thanks to Logan and the rest of the service for making a great night."

"The service was great. Super friendly staff and quick and efficient servers. The food was decent. The salsa for the chips and salsa they serve before the meal was different but tasty. The mango lemonade hit the spot. The fried ice cream was different. Didn’t seem fried. Overall a decent experience."
