    This was my third time at El Dorado Kitchen and it was as good as the last 2 times, excellent! There were 4 of us and everyone had a delicious meal. The service was also great. I can’t wait for the next time I’m in town to enjoy another meal. By the way, the first 2 times I was there for breakfast which was fantastic and this time was for lunch.

    Our dinner was fabulous and the service was excellent. We asked for a wine reco and they let us do a tasting before deciding on a bottle. Our server was a local and really hospitable and took great care of us (thanks Rene!). We truly enjoyed our experience.
