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.

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.

VERY GOOD!!!!! We have it for 4 times in 3 days. And hope we could eat it all over the worldread more

I ordered a chorizo mulita, and it was delicious! I can't remember what the person I went with ordered exactly but he got asada. I tried the meat and it was good! I also really liked how they have separate lines depending on what you want to order. It makes the process feel much more organized and efficient. Overall, I had a great experience and definitely recommend checking this place out. I'll be coming back for more on my next visit!

It was exactly what I was looking for. Not only was the food great, the menu huge, the service awesome, super affordable and the vibe perfect, the tequila selection was top notch. First thing I did was see what tequila they had and - sure enough - they had the full suite of Fortaleza. Best Tequila on the planet IMHO. One note - the portions are huge, and all come with soup and chips and salsa. Highly Recommend.

They have a Loteria drinking game, with each card matching a drink on the menu. Fun idea, but when explained seemed confusing. The drink was ok, too sweet for me and a little small for the price. Menu highlights for me was The dirty corn, salsa flight, and my (2) taco plate. The dirty corn was a standout with elote-style corn in a bowl, topped with chicharron, chorizo, and spicy mayo. It delivers that street corn flavor, but with a good mix of textures and spice. My tacos were delicious. I tried one grilled shrimp taco and one carnitas taco, served with rice and beans. The blue corn tortillas were a nice touch and pillowy soft! The carnitas were amazing, great flavor and super tender. I shrimp tacos were just as good and when topped with their habanero, verde, and roja salsa, that heat and flavor depth gets elevated! Overall, it's a dependable neighborhood spot with a fun atmosphere, creative touches, and good food that makes it worth a visit if you are in the area!

We were seated quickly, my partner liked the music and vibe from the place. Service was great and checked in with us frequently. I had gotten the veggie omelet with a side of toast. My partner got the paisa bowl based on recommendation. The food was simple but good. My partner really liked the paisa bowl, the steak and chorizo were flavored well. It was rounded out with the beans and rice. Just very hearty and rich. The veggie omelet was good, all the veggies cooked through. Worked well for both of us. Savory but not heavy in the least which was great after the long night before. We'd certainly stop by again for brunch. Solid food, wasn't busy and service was great throughout.

We ordered the Sayulitas Burrito with shrimp, bacon, rice, lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, grilled cheese, and chipotle sauce, and it was absolutely delicious. Since we were just looking for a light snack, we shared it--and it was more than enough to satisfy us. I can't wait to try more items on the menu!

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.

Even with those minor hiccups, the service and food were so good that we're planning to return for dinner to see the show. Highly recommend!

We ordered the horchata, birria egg rolls, moms tacos, cheese enchiladas, and to-go the carne en su Jugo and another order of chicken enchiladas. We didn't skip on dessert either even though we were already busting out of our pants, so we had the best key lime pie in Vegas and that is no joke and so well worth throwing us over the edge. Thank you for serving authentic Mexican food and not the so-called Mexican food that this town thinks is authentic. Definitely made from the heart.
