It was a hot day and I left a meeting and when I saw the sphere somewhat close by, I decided to…read morewalk over to it and take a close look. From there, El Dorado Cantina caught my eye after looking at Mexican restaurants in the middle afternoon for lunch. I prefer stand alone restaurants, generally than restaurants in hotels or casinos. This review is for the Happy Hour menu. The restaurant had its Calaveras theme awaiting Dios de los Muertos. Very nice decor and friendly helpful server. I am gluten intolerant, or I would've ordered the mole, but I was there for their very extensive happy hour menu and from the following different kinds of tacos, I picked three based on her recommendations. The list of choices is: Carne Asada / Carnitas / Pulled Chicken / Al Pastor / Chorizo Corn & Poblano / Cauliflower / Crispy Beef & Brisket / Crispy Chicken / Quesabirria I chose the Al Pastor, Carne Asada and the Carnitas. Before my plate of three tacos I got a delicious basket of chips with green and red salsa. The tacos were filled with each particular meat and extras. They were all excellent with the Carnitas superlative, followed by the Al Pastor and then Carne Asada which needed a little salsa. I would have ordered dessert but I was filled up finishing the tacos. I might be gluten intolerant but I'm not glutton intolerant. Well done El Dorado.

El Dorado is such a cool-looking spot so I'll start with the positives. The decor is really nice…read moreand they have a lot of seating both at the bar and throughout. They have TVs if you're into sports. Service was great, very attentive and warm. The drinks were amazing, absolutely delicious. I hate to say this, but the food was only okay. If you're looking for authentic Mexican flavors, this is t the place for you. The green pozole was insanely salty and tasted only of cumin. The fajitas were okay, nothing out of the ordinary. The hard shell tacos were so hard they were hard to eat. And the meat inside was ground beef...just a weird choice. Overall, a good experience because it was time spent with friends, but the food needs work.

This place is definitely a Las Vegas gem! The atmosphere is so lively, and the ordering setup is…read moreunlike anything I've experienced before. They have different stations and lines depending on what you're ordering, with a huge variety of meats to choose from. I even spotted some more adventurous options, like cow brains and cow eyes! I tried the steak quesadilla, a chorizo taco, and a lengua taco. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, especially the tortillas, which tasted freshly homemade. The lengua taco was easily my favorite! The meat was incredibly flavorful and had the perfect texture. I've had lengua before that was rubbery and overly chewy, but this was tender and cooked beautifully. The green salsa added just the right amount of heat without overpowering the flavor of the meat. The chorizo taco was also excellent! The meat was well-seasoned, savory, and had just the right amount of saltiness. It came with similar fresh toppings and salsa, which complemented everything really well. As much as I enjoyed it, I would definitely order more lengua tacos next time! The steak quesadilla, however, wasn't my favorite. It was completely different from what I typically think of as a quesadilla. Instead of a soft tortilla folded over melted cheese and meat, this one had a soft, house-made tortilla on the bottom with a layer of melted cheese, followed by steak and the usual toppings, and then what seemed like a hard crispy tostada-style shell on top. There wasn't any additional cheese between the steak and the top shell, so the layers felt pretty separate rather than everything being melted together. I'm not sure if this is a different style of quesadilla, but it definitely wasn't what I was expecting! It wasn't necessarily bad, just not my preference. I much preferred the tacos, especially the lengua! Another thing I appreciated was how quick and efficient the service was, especially considering how busy and lively the restaurant was. I also love that they're open super late, making this a great spot for a late-night bite in Vegas. Overall, I'm so glad I finally got to try Tacos El Gordo! The quality of the food, fresh ingredients, fun atmosphere, and efficient service made it a great experience. Although the quesadilla wasn't quite my style, the tacos more than made up for it. Definitely somewhere I'd happily return to on my next trip to Las Vegas!

We came on Saturday around midnight, and it was PACKED. The ordering system was a little confusing at first. Right when we came in, we actually asked us how to order, and we were like, "uhh, I think we just stand in line behind whatever we want to order?" The al pastor tacos were SO good! The meat was juicy, and the sauce was super flavorful. The carne asada tacos were just okay for us, though. We also tried the vampiro, but we weren't fans of the tortillas that came with it. They were kind of hard and burnt. Overall, these are some hella good tacos, and the fact that they're open late is a huge plus! We actually ended up coming twice during our visit. Definitely worth checking out if you're staying nearby and wanting a late night bite.

They start you off with chips, salsa, bean dip and a cup of chicken noodle soup. First Mexican restaurant I've ever had a complimentary cup of soup . Everything so far was very good. My wife had the Veggie Fajitas with flour tortillas. I had the Mole Poblano. 3 largely pounded pieces of chicken with rice , beans , guacamole and flour tortillas. The Mole was very good. the Chicken even though they pounded it was a bit over cooked but the Mole masked the dryness of the chicken . Everything else was very good. My wife enjoyed her meal. The veggies were fresh and plentiful. Come to think of it both meals were plentiful. Next time I will try one of the many fish dishes . It seems to be there specialty.

Loved the esthetics of the place from the outside. We put our name on their waiting list which took…read more30 mins to be called in. The inside was also great to take photos of. Most waiters/waitresses were dressed in characters from El Chavo Del Ocho show. They even had a barrel where you can look like you lived in it like El Chavo. Loved how their physical Menu cover was made of what appeared to be wood. They served salsa and chips that were pretty good. Had real high hopes of having a wonderful experience here with my family but it wasn't so. That's about where our joy ended. After being seated by LA Chilindrina we waited 20 mins to receive our drinks but my Wife didn't receive hers at all. We were starting to feel neglected. Then it took 40 mins for for another waiter to take our order. Between the order being placed and the hour it took them to deliver our food, my wife noticed the people that were seated right before us were already finishing their meal. Then she also noticed that the people seated after us already had their appetizers. As my wife went to the restroom she found and told La Chilidrina that we were not happy with the service at all. She pointed out the guests before us and after us were being served and we were still waiting for our food. El Chavo asked if we like more "chile" and he showed up with it 1/2 hr later with the chips and salsa. Then we started to get bombarded which seems like by all the staff members coming to our table asking if everything was ok. At that point we figured we stayed this long let's at least try their food. Maybe that would make up for their horrible service. I ordered the chicken enchiladas and tasted bland. Family said food wasn't the greatest. After our plates were taken we were still asked if we wanted desert. Wife said no we just wanted to leave. Then waiter said that it would be on the house, and we still said we just wanted to leave. We are generous tippers and even with bad service we still leave a tip. This one we did not feel guilty for not tipping, nah it still sucks. We felt that there was no organized structure because we were being served by multiple people. If not mistaken there were 5 people interacting with us in total. Then we started to get their reason for the service displayed. If it were a reasonably new or recently opened establishment then we can understand. They have been in business for years and you would think that they would be pros by now. Then there were the guest before us and after us that were well tended to. All in all, unfortunately we will personally not be back again, which is a great shame for us because we would have loved to have supported La Vecindad. We hope this doesn't occur to you, but just heads up. Me: PiiiPiiiPiiiiPiiiPiiiiiii Wife: Wah Wah Waaahhhh

After my spectacular first meal at Toca Madera, I had to schedule a return, which I did Friday…read moreevening. This time my daughter and niece joined me. I was excited to dine in the main dining room rather than at my bar-area table from Wednesday. Travis, our server, was fantastic, just like Mariah on my first visit. I will say, it seemed even louder in the main dining room. The electronic dance music soundtrack makes you feel like you're dining in a hot dance club. Definitely not the place for a quiet dinner, but it's all part of the Toca Madera experience. We started with the Watermelon and Passion Fruit Margaritas. Both superb. For a starter, we ordered the Queso Fundido. It arrived at the table like molten lava, so we had to give it a few minutes before diving in. Once we did, it was incredible. For our entrees and sides, we had the Petite Filet and Seared Scallops. Both were awesome. We also ordered the Street Corn, which I had loved so much on Wednesday, and the Whipped Potatoes. The potatoes, with a little jalapeño oil and lime salt, were insanely good. During dinner, Travis treated our table to Toca Madera's fire shots. They arrive in tall shot glasses topped with a seasoned lime slice and sugar cube, which is then lit on fire tableside. It's quite the presentation and fits this restaurant perfectly. Apparently we made a good impression on management, because dessert turned into an event of its own. We were treated to a huge platter featuring the Brownie Celebration along with the Strawberry Tres Leches and Brown Butter Cake. It was quite a finish to the meal. As great as my Wednesday dinner was, Friday night was even better. And this time we had a ringside seat for Toca Madera's female fire performer, who came out at 7:30 and again at 8:30. Watching her perform just a few feet from our table was amazing and really capped off the evening. Two visits in three days. That probably tells you everything you need to know about how much I enjoyed Toca Madera.
