Had the build your own combo. The enchilada was so spicy it was inedible as was the beans. The tamale and rice were excellent though. When relayed my issues to the server she said sorry and walked away. Could have brought a substitution but ignored the problem. Have eaten at numerous El Doritos and have always had excellent food...m
