We stopped at El Dorado on our way to Chicago and enjoyed every minute of it! We were pleasantly greeted by the owner who took amazing care of serving us to ensure we enjoyed our experience in his restaurant. We even shared stories of travels across the country, and it made us feel right at home! I enjoyed a fantasic burrito that was super filling while my wife enjoyed her favorite in hard shell tacos. The lunch special options were great. The owner let us know he has lots of travelers up and down the interstate that stop in, and as one of those travelers, I would highly recommend!

This was our first time here, but will definitely return. The whole experience was top notch. The 2 people that waited on us were personable and very patient explaining all the different things they offered. The plates were full and packed with authentic flavor. Try the 3 dip appetizer, but make sure you plan on sharing, because it was generous. The garlic shrimp was the bomb! The burrito grande was quite GRANDE! The prices were very, affordable and they offer take out !!! We will be a loyal patron!!

This place is an almost hidden treasure. If you like fish. I HIGHLY recommend the fish tacos. The best fish tacos that i have ever tasted in my life! And the shrimp tacos…don’t get me started! Oh my goodness good! And the store owner was so friendly and good to us. I pray that he gets so much business that he is forced to open a larger restaurant. Everyone, make time to get down to this hidden gem. You will not be disappointed.

We had stopped at this restaurant a year ago after the same tennis tournament that we attended in Chicago. While driving back this year 2025 I was searching for a restaurant at the same exit because it’s Merriville and I knew they had a lot of restaurants and I just so happened to choose this restaurant again by happenstance And lo and behold. It was the same restaurant. What a great experience again and now I will be referring this restaurant to anyone in the Merriville area needing a good place to eat. They’ve got great lunch specials Monday through Friday. We were admiring the nine dollar price for I’m sure an amazing lunch. The quantity that you receive is excellent And I had the burrito grande with Carnitas and my spouse had the quesadilla con Carne Asada with one taco de Carnitas. La comida fue muy rico y el servicio perfecto 100 porcentaje para ese lugar necesita visite cuando en Merriville.

We arrived and were the only ones there. We were greeted right away by the owner who was super nice. We ordered stuffed jalapeños ( which were fantastic) , burrito bowl with chicken and their lunch burrito. The food was great and came out quickly. We were stuffed and had to take the rest home. I got the horchata for the drive home and it was the best ive had around the area. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is in the area to give it a try. Cant wait to head back when we are in the area.

Wow! Great newish spot in the region! Service is great food os fresh and wonderful. We got the queso fundido to start and it came with peppers and onions that were so fresh and it wasn’t greasy like some others. My husband got the quesibirria which was so good and I got the El Dorado fajitas. Everything was fresh and tasty! Definitely a spot to go to! Prices are reasonable considering how much food you get!
