Great family restaurant – The El Matador in Ogden and the one in Bountiful are owned by two brothers, I've known them for over forty years. It's not authentic Mexican, but it's good food. If you found your food bland, next time try the chili verde. You don't stay in business as long as they have with the crowds they serve if the service and food are bad. Kids are always welcome.
Terrible Food – The exterior makes this a deceptive place -- looks great on the outside, but everything inside is disappointing (layout, decor, etc). Don't get the management mad, I've heard them get angry at critics and run them out the front door. This is weird place to eat. The food is 'cheese melt mexican' everything they serve seems to smothered with melted cheese -- with tomato paste that has almost no flavor. There are so many Mexican restaurants in South Davis County -- don't waste your money on this one.
A consistent treasure of Utah cuisine – There is a reason that El Matador has been in business for over 20 years - It's clean, it's good, it's family friendly, and you get a lot of food for your buck. I have been going to El Matador for over 16 years and enjoy it every time I eat. The owner is someone who takes pride in his business and I often see him interacting with customers, handing out candy to the little ones, and making sure that people are satisfied. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food, this may not be at ... read more
Everything is bland – This has probably got to be the worst Mexican food I've ever tasted, other than Del Taco. The salsa is warmed and tastes just like tomato soup, the beans are bland and tasteless. The servers snap at you when you aren't ready, and the owner is loud and seems very angry. Hate this place.
It's own class of mexican food: a local fav – I admit it, I love this place cuz it's american mexican food. The shredded beef is like none other and I love to get Raspberry Peach margaritas every time I come along with the salsa (which I buy in pint size and take home) I love the scones but hate the really dark I think it's a green room (no natural lighting) and they always try to seat parties of 2-4 in there and I have to be bratty and ask not to be seated there. It gets pretty crazy at lunchtime or the weekends and is a gr... read more
best mexican food ever, and great service – El Matador is the most amazing mexican restaurant I have ever been to. The service was excellent. we visit at least twice a month, and have always have had the best service from the waitresses (and waiter haha) and the hostesses and even the owner. The food is the best and i highly recommend the chili verde! El matador is family friendly and I highly recommend it to everyone!!
Great Mexican!! Always fresh! – I don't know what happened with the person that wrote that review below me...? But as you can see, El Matador is well loved for its great food, atmosphere and prices. The food isn't the most authentic...but it is still delicious. I have never had a problem there with the food, service, or quality. The sweet pork burrito is to die for...and the chips and warm salsa with melted cheese is so yummy! Our family favorite!
Worst I have ever had! – Where have the Utahan's been to for good Mexican food, that they choose to give this such a high rating? I would guess never to Mexico or Texas for that matter. I have traveled to both and do not see anything tex-mex or Mexican about this restaurant other than the name. The beans I had, tasted as if they had come out of a can. And the sauce was not Chile Verde as I have known it. To travel from Logan or Layton or downtown Salt Lake City to get Mexican food at El Matador is not traveling far enough, I... read more
AMAZING Mexican!! – El Matador has the greatest Mexican food in Utah! My family lives in Logan, UT and we will drive the hour and a half to Bountiful at least twice a month for El Matador! There just isn't a Mexican restaurant that compares. The food is fantastic, the prices very reasonable, and the service is nothing short of the very best! We've visited the Ogden location before and it just doesn't quite compare to the service and quality of the Bountiful location. The food is always HOT, and all of the sauces and flavors ... read more
