Zsolt, Owner & Head Chef
El Dorado is born from a deep dedication to authentic Mexican cuisine and cultural heritage, passed down through generations of family recipes. This rich tradition began with Don Jose’s grandmothers and is now continued by Elizabeth and Zsolt, who aim to bring the true essence of Mexican flavours to Edinburgh, Scotland.
Elizabeth brings her family’s time-honored recipes, while Zsolt offers his extensive expertise in restaurant management. Together, they are committed to delivering an authentic food experience that fills a gap in Scotland’s culinary scene, offering genuine Mexican flavours that are often underrepresented.
At El Dorado Taquería, we bring you authentic Mexican cuisine inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Michoacán.
Our Michoacán-style Beef Birria, slow-cooked for 8 hours with a blend of spices, is served with succulent tacos and a rich consommé. You can also savour our street-style Esquites, sweet and tender Pan de Elote, refreshing Aguas Frescas, and aromatic Café de Olla, each carefully crafted. From the satisfying crunch of esquites to the bold flavours of birria, every bite captures the essence of traditional Mexican cooking.
Each dish offers a vibrant, comforting, and flavorful taste of Mexico, transporting you to the heart of Michoacán with every bite.
