    Chicken Enchiladas (3) with Rice and Beans $13
    Kay M.

    Small parking lot in the back. There's street parking in the residential area. Apparently they make everything fresh to order. Which means it usually takes 15-20 minutes for the food to come out. They have a good amount of people coming to dine in and well as take out. Saw several people picked up orders placed ahead. Recommend doing that next time since the wait can be a while. Got the chicken enchiladas (3) with rice and beans. The enchiladas were $8. The rice and beans were $5. The enchiladas were really good. A bit spicy, but good. The rice and beans were good compliments to the enchiladas. I wasn't hungry, but I kept eating cause it was so good. I appreciated the staff wrapping the container in ceramic wrap, which prevented the food from spilling everywhere.

    Chilaquiles rojos

    I love coming here for their chilaquiles rojos as well as the mole and menudo everything taste soooo good and it just has that homemade touch service is good the ladies working their are always super nice and their aguas frescas change but they're all amazing

    Chorizo mini burrito

    Randomly found this spot on my way to work ! Not only was the customer service good but it felt like I stopped at a family members place to get a quick bite. Food is so authentic and can always appreciate a home made salsa. I love that I got to choose from a large or mini burrito. I hate going to places where the food is overwhelming

    A restaurant down the street ignored me waiting for a table so I drove away and found Dorada Restaurant. I am so glad I did. They have a simple menu with only a few breakfast plates prepared in the traditional way. My Spanish is limited to food (la cuenta for favor!) but the ladies were friendly helping me order. I ordered the chilaquiles plate. It reminded me of a chilaquiles plate in Mexico. It had all the elements and streaky fresh scrambled eggs.!I can't wait to try Dorada for lunch.

    Chorizo burrito

    We drove in from Vegas early Monday morning & wanted a breakfast burrito before we checked in to our hotel for our vacation! Very cute little spot in a small strip mall of sorts. Very limited parking. You order at the counter and they bring your food to you. Lots of yummy options. House salsa was yummy!

    Best hidden gem in garden grove! Delicious authentic homemade Mexican dishes without taking a trip down south.

    El domingo 7/14/2024 lleve a mi mamá y hermano al Dorado a comer un menudo y todo iba bien hasta que la mesera decidió pasar atrás de el entre la mesa donde estábamos sentados y la caja registradora. Ella llevaba platos de comida en la mano y por pasar apretada atrás de él, a la mesera se le cayó el caldo de un menudo a la espalda de mi hermano. La mesera disculpándose de pura risa nomás, empezó a limpiar le la camisa con el trapo que usa para limpiar las mesas. Nunca ofrecieron una disculpa sincera y tampoco no ofrecieron un descuento por la inconveniencia. Quedamos decepcionados.

    Enchiladas Verde 5/5
    S N.

    One of the best Mexican restaurants I ate at. Very authentic. Some of their dishes are actually better than those from other popular Mexican restaurants. The outside looks unassuming, but they have regulars coming in and out, so you know it's good. They don't speak a lot of English, but we pointed to the food we want and communicated just fine. They do close at 6pm, so head over early if you're planning to try them out. Enchiladas Verde 5/5 - The dish comes with enchiladas, rice, vegetables, cheese, and really good salsa. The enchiladas are moist, flavorful, and enveloped in lots of sauce. Every bite is wrapped in deliciousness. Costillas en Salsa Verde 5/5 - Pork ribs in spicy green sauce. The pork is tender and melts in your mouth. Fresh tortillas 5/5 - These are great homemade tortilas. Fresh, hot, fluffy, and soft.

From the moment we walked in everything just seemed well put together. Shockingly there were only 2-3 other tables filled and you'll understand in a few minutes. We were greeted by a few staff very warmly and they were very patient and helpful as we ordered for our group of 5. Taquitos - crunchy and packed with meat! Guac was sorta under seasoned but it was still a good creamy addition to the steaming hot taquito. 2 Dorato taco plate - these were similar to the taquitos in all the good ways but even more packed with meat, crisp lettuce and mounds of freshly graded cheese...damn good! Looked around and this is what everyone had, even people after us. Must order one of these! YES, it will fill you up! Guac Mexicana - freshly made guac to order and it was great! Flavor was perfect and went well with everything. Beans - we're bean lovers and these were so good I had to call it out. The pico de gallo is a must as well, don't miss out on it. Spicy though! This is a must try for anyone in a 10-15 mile radius....and any closer you should run there! The restaurant was very clean, staff were attentive and pleasant from entry to exit...we couldn't be happier with our experience. Kudos to this place for running a restaurant the right way! They should teach other restaurants how to do business!

For $8, you get a whole mug, ice cold, no need for a refill. The shrimp enchiladas were spectacular. They chop the shrimp small so you're not getting huge chunks of shrimp each bite and they top it with either red, green, or mole sauce. The ceviche was great. Great flavor, crunchy vegetables, and the portion was huge. But that's not the best part. I'm a sucker for good refried beans. Wow. Some of the best I've ever tasted. You can just tell they smash them fresh every morning. So I got to talking to the waiter, who was great by the way, and he said a while back they changed from lard to real butter in their beans and what a great change that was. The flavor is next level. The service, ambiance, and food were great. I'll definitely be back. Hope you try it too.

We started doing a game where we'd pick something random on the menu, just to see if it was a miss. That's how good everything is here. From the carnitas plate, to the tacos a la cart and the Camerones that remind me of the day my husband proposed to me after a day in Bajamar. The service is also everything - they've got a great team dynamic and always seem to be talking about what's next in the kitchen, what needs to be prepared or what to turn over and make fresh. The cherry on top has to either be the custom made salsa bar or every single Mexican soda you can think of. Dine in, outside or takeaway. The ambiance is really all because of the food and how it feeds your belly and soul.
