What people say, in short
Recommendations are pooled across this brand's Las Vegas-area outlets, represented here by its Sammy Davis Jr Drive outlet. El Dorado Cantina is a Mexican restaurant that many commenters recommend, with one commenter calling the food authentic and a nice sit-down option. One diner singles out the breakfast chilaquiles with steak and eggs, another the asada burrito, and another the steak fajitas, along with the salsa, chips and enchiladas. The location is the main caveat: it sits next to a strip club a bit off the Strip, and one commenter says only a drunk crowd would enjoy it now, while another calls the food disgusting and tasting frozen and reheated. One commenter points to a Tivoli Village branch in a better area, and another praises a Southwest-side location for those bothered by the strip club proximity.
