El Gallo Dorado is a classic, authentic Mexican restaurant known for its good portions and fresh, well-seasoned ingredients. The birria tacos remain a must-try, loaded with tons of steak and served with a delicious consommé. Customers have praised the tinga tacos and tortas, highlighting their flavorful quality, although there have been occasional inconsistencies in the tinga's taste and texture. Despite limited parking downtown, the attentive staff and generous portions make it worth a visit, especially for those craving authentic tacos or burritos. Many diners appreciate the great vibes and the ability to accommodate dietary restrictions. With big burritos and tasty soups, El Gallo Dorado continues to attract food lovers, even those from Texas and beyond.
