Serving up some of the largest steaks in the capital for over two decades, El Dorado in Dickson is celebrating its 21st birthday this year and is inviting everyone to take advantage of the crazy specials available in the month of July.
Co-owners Chris and Johnny have been busy bringing the restaurant out of the 80’s with modern lighting, a new paint-job and carpeting in addition to some exciting new changes to the menu.
“We wanted to freshen up the restaurant for its 21st birthday,” Chris said. “To take it from the 80’s to now without making any drastic changes.”
Well known for its top quality grain fed steaks, fresh seafood and many more mouth watering dishes including veal, chicken and pasta dishes, the new meals on offer at El Dorado’s have not replaced old favourites such as the Chicken Whisky and Fillet Mignon.
“We’ve made sure we kept a lot of the favourites,” Johnny said. “But we’re making it more modern with meals like the new Panko Porter steak with crumbed calamari and hollandaise sauce.”
And don’t worry, the infamous one kilogram ‘Big Eldo’ steak is still on offer if you’re looking for a challenge. Eat it all and get your name on the ‘Big Eldo’ wall of fame!
With no hidden hire charges and a backroom that can cater for private functions of up to 100 people, El Dorado’s can help you celebrate any occasion. It has a real party atmosphere, especially on Saturdays.
“90% of our Saturdays are booked out,” he said. “It’s just a party atmosphere here; we cater for birthdays, buck’s nights and hen’s nights – anything really.”
What is different about El Dorado is the convenient pay-as-you-go system which allows individuals to order and pay for their drinks and meals without worrying about splitting the bill. Groups also have the option of ordering from their fantastic function menu including seafood platters, finger food platters and more.
This month, the restaurant has some amazing specials to coincide with their 21st birthday including free children’s meals* on Monday nights, $10.00 fish and chips on Tuesdays and Super $12.90 Schnitzels on Wednesdays. However, Thursday nights have been the most popular with 50% off Prawns and Oysters! Click here to take advantage of these fantastic special offers.
“We’ve gone stupid with the specials and have been booked up almost every night so far,” Chris said. “We want people to come in and see the new place, its new and more modern and the meals are still as big as they were and at reasonable prices.
So if you’re curious to see the changes, come back and help celebrate El Dorado’s 21st birthday this month – you definitely won’t leave hungry.
