You will take several turns to get here, but it is worth it. Watch for El Dorado signs with arrows. A flight of steps takes you up to a room overlooking the marina and water. The windows are all very clean, so you can watch the pelicans diving into the waters. Waiters and waitresses are attentive and offer helpful recommendations such as wine pairings. I had a lovely albiriño wine from Piedra Del Mar (Spanish wine). My husband ordered a mofongo relleno de churrasco, which comes with a salad — flavorful mofongo and tender well seasoned beef. He drank Medalla, a popular big ñame Puerto Rican and local-to-Salinas beer. Like most places here, the salad is undressed, but they bring oil and vinegar if it is requested. There is no salt or pepper on the table, but we needed none. I ordered the red snapper filet with mojo sauce, a red sauce with cooked onions, and the tostones de pana. We dipped the tostones in the required Puerto Rican condiment,...

I am not easily impressed, especially in Puerto Rico where the idea of good service seems like a far away Disney fantasy, and if the place looks nice, the food is usually barely ok. Dorado's, however, met and surpassed the 3 most important reasons to dine out: the food. Everything I had was excellent in every way; fresh, relatively fast, and well seasoned. Second, the place: from the moment I arrived, parking was accessible, and even though the place was packed, we got s table for 2 right away. Most of the tables are ocean view, the bathroom clean, and an all around beautiful place with good vibes with folks talking loud and enjoying themselves! Last bit not least the service was spot on: I never wanted anything that wasn't immediately served and whenever my server wasn't around, whomever was there got us what we needed right away! Never seen such a busy 0lave ran so well in Puerto Rico. I highly recommend you...
