So I went there for the first time last night. Had high expectations since I’ve heard so many people rant about the place. So I start off with ordering a draft IPA and it was flipping warm. And I thought that was going to set the pace for the night. So after finishing the beer and getting our appetizers. Which were on point. Absolutely great. Next was a cocktail which was stiff. Which is also another bonus. Score. Then our main courses came out and boy how tasty everything was. Love this place and will be coming back.
Quick review for locals/SoCal. Sandra and I went to The Eldo - previously known as Eldorado Bar and Grill. I'll make this fast. Awesome! Food, service, drinks, all great. Lots of items for different palates. Beer menu is quite extensive. The chef is South African and has some amazing twists on typical pub faves like fish and chips and uses a unique white fish from South Africa. Bar is stocked with a variety of hard liquor, didn't see anything super top-shelf, but excellent. Most of all, the air conditioning was superb!! It was actually downright chilly in there [I liked it, Sandra had to get an extra shirt of mine from the car to wrap around her]. So if you live around here you have to swing by especially if it's super hot outside. It'd be worth a little journey if you're further away as well.
The food is great! I've had the lamb shank, prawns, filet mignon, the buffalo wings, the Tavern burger, potato skins, Mac n cheese, calamari, and even tried escargot. The service needs a little improvement. When a customer orders an app, the waitress should automatically bring appetizer plates and napkins/silverware. It seems that I always have to ask for plates and napkins in the bar area.
