    The girls running the bar and floor do a great job. They notice when someone new comes in regardless of how busy they are. They treat everyone as if they are a regular and/or want them to become one. The guys in the back work that grill like a fine tuned machine with orders coming out perfectly one after another. Cold drinks, hot food great value and food tunes. Perfect neighborhood spot.

    My Brother and I decided to go to the El Dorado Bar to watch all of the football games and to enjoy some good food. We have never been there before and we both enjoyed the great service, food, and entertainment. We liked are hamburgers, fries and reasonable drinks. We both met Lynn one of the owners with her husband. My brother and I are already planning to go back soon.

    The owners, Duke and Lynn, are super nice and social. Has a neighborhood feel, not pretentious at all. Had a great time. Try the Vietnamese egg rolls for sure.

    One of my favorite dive bars. Amazing food, drinks and service. The Duke and his wife are so nice and welcoming!

    Friend and I stopped for breakfast this morning, chef definitely needs more training, my meal came out very quickly, I was finished before my friend even got her food. Toast was not toasted, only warm. Chicken fried steak not crispy, perhaps undercooked. Food used to be very good, please offer chef additional training

    There are literally dozens of bars in the area to choose from. Although El Dorado has decent food and relatively decent specials what makes El Dorado the best by far is Victoria. She is charming, gracious, welcoming and makes everyone feel like regulars. She is a unique gem and a rare find. Without Victoria, El Dorado is an average local bar at best.

    I love EL DORADO!! I go there at least every week. Its a friendly, easy-going atmosphere with great food and drinks. I spent the week before my wedding celebrating the time with some friends because it felt like HOME. Try the Corn Dog.

    I have lived in the area for more than 5 years. And I always see the number of cars here and always think I should check it out. Yesterday was the day. It is not what I expected at all. It was super clean and nice and so many tvs to watch the football game. They had trivia which I wasn't there to play but we did and it ended up being pretty fun. The beers are huge and decently priced. Had a couple of apps which were also pretty good. The vibe was great and the patrons and staff were very friendly. I will definitely go back again.

    I live next door to this place and I can honestly say, of the 50+ times I've been there, I have never been unsatisfied with the food, drinks or waitresses! Their prices are low and the food is always delicious! Every time I walk in...I get greeted even before I take my seat which makes me feel very welcome. After my second visit, I get my drink as soon as I sit down, without even saying a word! I love this place and wish I were rich, so I could go every day and give my waitresses the tip they deserve instead of the mere 25% I can afford!

    El Dorado bar and grill the five Star dive bar. I started going there to follow a band that I like called the Blind Owlz The first time the service had a lot of problems but the second or two times since service has been really good and every time my food has been delicious so it's really pretty good. It would be nice if there was something to soak up sound in the room acoustic ceiling or carpet on the floor or the walls or something cuz the whole room just echoes all the time and it just gets a little bit noisy. I do especially like the fact that they support live music. So kudos to the El Dorado bar and grill for supporting live music!

    Great place to watch football , listen to great bands but bad experience with their Thursday steak special, took almost an hr to get my plate, server did not bother to let me know they were behind in their kitchen and the steak was aweful and full of fat and grizzle ! So I paid 15 $ for a good potato and decent salad, Hopefully the Mg will fix these hiccups. 😪 and find a more decent cut of steak !

    Come on in. Meet the locals and the family that runs it. Be nice and you become one the friends that all hangout here. Too many specials to mention and everyone we tried was good. Just kick it and enjoy that old time diner experience.
