On a Sunday afternoon we tried to find a place that offers tamales. After calling multiple restaurants in Chula Vista, El Dorado said they have chicken tamales, even though this was not their normal menu item. We asked for a chicken tamale that was not spicy, and the owner said they had it, so we ordered 6 chicken tamales, 5 rolled tacos, and 2 slices of flan to go. The order came to a little under $40. The tamales had some kind of ground chicken inside and were spicy after all, but they were mediocre, and I would not recommend them (except on a Sunday). The rolled tacos were ok, and the flan was excellent. Overall a good experience for menu items that are not the restaurant’s speciality (seafood). I look forward to trying their bacon wrapped shrimp in the future.

I got the carnitas plate and my husband got a combo including 3 rolled tacos and a tostada. All were incredibly delicious and fresh! The menu included alot of unique options and I’m sure everything would be tasty. Our server was really nice and the whole experience was great.

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants. Food taste authentic, the vibe it’s really like at the abuelas house. The carnitas plate is my favorite, my wife loves the mojarras. And the carne asada is just the best!! We always go there when the in laws are in town.

A few things here. The majority of the food here was really good. I got the 3 Tijuana tacos which is the adobada, chicken and carne asada. The carne asada was extremely dry and not good but the other 2 were amazing. The waitress messed up our order but then her mom, such a sweet lady and very kind, fixed everything. Also, the mom made our margaritas from scratch!

El Dorado is one of my favorites out of the many excellent under-the-radar Chula Vista Mexican restaurants that need to be getting more love than they do.

I’ve been coming by this shop pretty frequently lately. I work down the road and I’ve found this place to have some of the best seafood options in the area.

Delicious food at reasonable prices. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Had a delicious 7 Marzs soup and my boyfriend had the Tilapia which I kept eating as well cause it was so good. Really enjoy dining here.
