Came here for a work luncheon. The ambiance is really nice. Very decorative. The service was great. I ordered the lobster enchiladas. It was good but a little bland.
When they brought out the food, they brought 1 of 5 entrees. After about 10 mins, they brought 3 more entrees. Unfortunately, I was the last one who had to wait for their food and I’m the slowest eater. I think it’s better to bring everyone’s dishes at the same time. I understand that they could be short staffed and they wanted the food to get out to the customer hot and fresh.
The prices are pretty too expensive for me. Every item was about $30+. It’s definitely not a place I’d just grab lunch for work. I think this place is best for a work luncheon or date.

Exceptional! Went here for my son's 21st birthday and he loved it! Great venue, great food and great staff! 🎉
Wonderful experience at El Dorado. Been meaning to go for a long time and finally made it. We were not disappointed and will definitely be back and put it on our rotation of place to go.
Jorge was an amazing server. The food was amazing, especially the culichi and the quesabirria tacos.

This is a Peruvian fusion restaurant and they can also cook the way you want according to our server which we didn’t dare to do.
The grilled red snapper which was $50+ came out first which was shocking because we didn’t wait too long for it after we order.
The serving tray was huge and it was a good size fish until you flip the other side there was no meat on it.
We also had Lomo Saltado and it was average and the meat wasn’t that tender and gets chewy as it gets colder.
The ceviche was fresh but a bit bland.
The staff were welcoming and we’re happy for the warm reception.

Had the birria quesadilla and the queso and the Caesar salad and all were underwhelming. The plantains and the pico de gallo are great. The beef quesadilla would be better if it were served hot instead of lukewarm like I got today. Edit: had the chicken empanadas and same comment as the beef, this time they cut them into pieces and it was not hot. I won’t order the churros again, too much sugar and the chocolate sauce was lacking.

So glad I stumbled on this place. It was late and they still treated us right. Jorge the bartender was fantastic. Did the ceviche sampler. Aji de gallina was amazing. Don't skip this spot

El Dorado is an absolute gem! I stopped by after work and tried the Pollo Causa and Lomo Saltado, hands down the best I’ve had in a long time. It’s tough to find those dishes done right, but El Dorado absolutely nailed it. Every bite was packed with flavor and clearly made with care.
What really made the experience stand out was Manny, the owner. He’s incredibly warm, welcoming, and passionate about what he does, you can feel that energy from the moment you walk in. The entire staff was just as friendly and attentive, which made the service top-notch from start to finish.
The ambiance? Stunning. Super cozy, vibrant, and totally Instagram-worthy, the kind of spot you want to bring friends to or just treat yourself. And don’t sleep on the Pisco Sours, they’re dangerously good and crafted to perfection.
Can’t wait to come back. El Dorado has definitely earned a spot in my regular rotation!

The food is fantastic—highly recommend the empanadas, lomo saltado, and ribs. The owner is incredibly welcoming and always makes us feel at home. The staff is attentive and friendly. And don't miss the pisco sour—it's the best in town!

The best ceviche. A little spicy but delicious. My wife doesn't like spicy food but she loved the ceviche here.
