Discover this place

El Dorado Restaurant and Bar, nestled in Brewster, NY, is a vibrant spot for Latin American cuisine, offering a diverse menu that showcases delightful dishes such as Pollo Asado and Asado Especial. Customers rave about the flavor and quality of the steak options, especially praising the combinations and soups for their heartiness and taste. From Shrimp Salads to generous portions of grilled meats, the culinary experience shines. Visitors appreciate the clean and spacious atmosphere, making it an ideal location for breakfast or lunch, particularly given its proximity to major thoroughfares.

However, service appears to be a mixed bag.

The bar area buzzes with energy in the evenings, drawing locals interested in a lively atmosphere. If you're in the mood for authentic Mexican-Guatemalan flavors, El Dorado promises delicious meals with a vibrant Latin flair, though be prepared for potential service lapses. It's a restaurant with great food and a vibrant ambiance, but it might benefit from a little polish in customer service.

Steaks, combinations, and soups are awesome!!! Service is fantastic. Nachos are also a great deal. Beef is better than chicken.

We stopped here for breakfast. They have a menu with plenty of options. The food was really good. The service was also very good. It’s big so I’d imagine you can always get a seat. It’s clean and a good atmosphere. It’s in a good location as it’s close to 287 and is on the main road near a few hotels and offices.

I wouldn't recommend this place. Food was decent. Nothing extraordinary but the service was absolutely terrible. ALL of the waiters just about ignored us & when I finally had to walk up to the counter to ask for the bill the person looked absolutely put out by the request. I don't expect hyper friendly service & can understand if things are busy it might take a bit but the place was practically dead with at least 3 waiters standing around at all times. Absolutely not worth going here.

Came in and sat down with waitor coming to give us the menu. As the waitress wrote down our order it seemed like she wasnt paying attention. I spoke as clearly as possible what i wanted. She wrote it down and continued ask the others. Now I am currently sitting at the restaurant waiting for my order that was made wrong. Brought the fried plantains out but it isn't as sweet. it tastes like a blend fried plantain without the sweetness. Service is alright but make sure you repeat your order to the waitress , Atmosphere is fine and food is alright for the price.

This is an OK dining experience. I’ll call it authentic because it was full of Mexican people - both eating and serving here. But, be forewarned: Spanish language skills are a MUST here. The food was good, and the World Cup was showing. But, my order was wrong and my gracious friend’s meal got cold while waiting for my right one to come. We asked for extra salsa, it never came. We asked for salad dressing, it never came. And, while the Horchata was only $2, it tasted a little thin to me.
