Steakhaus El Dorado in Bochum

We were there today for our wedding anniversary. The food was delicious 😋 and the whole atmosphere was perfect. Had the rump steak medium. We will definitely be back. Many thanks to the team.

We went here for dinner with friends in the evening. The reception and service is very accommodating, polite and nice. We had a round table for four people and we all ate steak. If you don't address these, you'll get your steak medium rare. The herb butter seemed homemade. The food was very delicious and the portion was sufficient. The salad from the buffet was also good. The ambience only gets 3 stars from me because the restaurant's interior and lighting are a bit too dark. But that's purely a matter of taste and everyone likes it differently. The store is huge and also has rooms for events. We'll definitely come back.

Very good cuisine. See nice staff. They are also suitable to book for large weddings or birthdays.

We are very satisfied. Not cheap, but worth it.

We're always happy to come back! The steaks are always grilled to perfection (even a 400 g piece) and can also be served on a hot stone if requested. The fillet is incredibly tender! The service is great, the owner is always courteous. The fried potatoes and princess beans with bacon are particularly great here. And even the coffee just tastes good. The ambience is slightly upscale and yet cozy.

We now come here at least twice a month to simply eat delicious food and relax after a hard day at work.

It was an all around great experience. The food was perfect, so much so that you wanted to order a second portion even though you were already full. The waiters were also really courteous and friendly, I found our slightly older waiter particularly sweet. So overall it was just super tasty and beautiful, I can recommend it 😍

Food 12/10 Very cozy and a nice atmosphere. Boss and his team/family Very nice and courteous people. You immediately feel very comfortable. They also have very good prices for the quality. Would come again every time.

Great service, super tasty beef fillet! I can recommend it 100%. Thank you Nemo for your hospitality..

We were in the restaurant today with 9 people. Arrival was at 5:30 p.m. and the last guests from our table arrived at the restaurant at 5:50 p.m. At first we were served normally and the drinks were taken. We then ordered the starters and the main course at 6:10 p.m. The starter was then served around 6:30 p.m. which was perfectly fine. I myself ordered the prawns as a starter, which tasted OK. We then had to wait over ONE hour (7:30 p.m.) until the main course was served. In the meantime, the waiter made fun of the fact that the waiting time was so long and we were all hungry, which for me didn't lighten the mood at the table but rather made it tense. Everyone at the table ordered different steak variations cooked medium. When we cut the meat, ALL of the guests' meat was still raw on the inside and the cooking level had NOT been reached. We then asked the waiter to come to the table to ask what went wrong with the orders and were initially met with silence from the waiter. After we had the boss at the table, he was lenient and reduced our price a little, but it was still a very disappointing evening. Unfortunately, I wouldn't come back because neither the food nor the service was convincing.

Good food, nice service, nice ambience

Thank you for always giving us the opportunity to hold our get-together with you.

I ate there twice in December. Both times the service was very friendly and accommodating. The steaks are of high quality and grilled to perfection. The side dishes and sauces also taste very good. There is free parking behind the house. Definitely reserve a table. I recommend this restaurant 100%.

We had dinner at El Dorado on December 17th with three women and a man and a small dog, We received a very friendly welcome, the service was very attentive, the food was fantastic, the price was also really good, the portions were very generous, everything tasted really delicious We were treated very lovingly and didn't have to wait that long for the food. All in all it was a great evening We will be very happy to come back, thank you again Best regards Andrea Obitz

Ordered fillet steak at El Dorado for New Year's Eve - the menu for Christmas was still being distributed, the selection was extremely poor - which finally arrived after 45 minutes. Our waitress was probably very old and demented, there is no other way to explain why our order from the table to the kitchen was incomplete, so we asked again. There was always a different waitress (were they actually trained waiters?) at the table and everyone asked us what another waitress already knew. When the food came, the herb butter was still missing! The side potatoes were probably leftovers from the bag because they were super puny. The fillet steak (!) had tendons and was anything but a joy. Our complaint about the stringiness of the fillet was not heard at all, nor did we get a replacement or hear anything that mentioned the word sorry. We eat out almost every week - never again at El Dorado. Not recommended. It's better to drive a few kilometers further to Bochum to the Rancho - that's great!

Had dinner there with my husband because we saw the video on YouTube of the boss and Abugoku. The helal steak was incredibly delicious! The side dishes were okay too. Unfortunately, I can't understand the taste of Boss's mashed potatoes with truffles. I didn't like it at all. All in all great again. The ambience is a bit old but still cozy and you have the feeling of being able to eat in peace and undisturbed.

I had the pleasure of visiting this steak restaurant and it was an absolute delight! The food was incredibly tasty - the steak was fried to perfection and the side dishes were excellently seasoned. The service was attentive, friendly and pampered us completely. A special highlight was the head waiter, an older gentleman with an incredible amount of charm and warmth. His stories and his friendly smile gave the evening a very special touch. A big compliment to the entire team! I will definitely be back and can highly recommend this restaurant.

We went to the El Dorado steakhouse in Wattenscheid with a larger group to enjoy our Christmas party and it was just perfect! Despite the group size, everything went wonderfully. We ordered à la carte and enjoyed a starter beforehand - everything was fresh, hot and served at the same time. The quality of the food was outstanding, the meat was cooked to perfection and incredibly tender. The service was attentive, friendly and professional. The cozy atmosphere rounded off the evening. Many thanks to the entire team – we will definitely be back!

We were at El Dorado today. We were absolutely satisfied. The food was super delicious! The boss and the waiters were very, very child-friendly. We will definitely eat there again. Thank you!

We had a wonderful evening! We were greeted very hospitably at the door and taken to a beautifully set table. The atmosphere is fantastic and I personally really liked it. Despite the large number of dining tables in the steak house, you have your privacy and you don't hear other people's conversations, so you can focus your full attention on your food and your company. I felt very comfortable. The service is very courteous and, as mentioned above, very hospitable. They have a good knowledge of the food, including the origin of the charcoal and, most importantly, the steak. We felt very well looked after by them. As for the food, I have to say it was a delight! After we placed our order, our dishes arrived fairly quickly. The starter of scampi in tomato sauce was very fresh and totally delicious. For the main course we had a fillet steak on a hot stone plate. The sizzle of the meat combined with the smell really whetted my appetite. The steak was cooked medium rare and cooked to perfection. With the herb butter on it it was simply wonderful. We decided on the ice cream in a baked marzipan coating with cherries, which we also really liked. We really enjoyed our evening at El Dorado and we'll definitely be back! Many thanks to the entire service team for the lovely evening!

Good steakhouse, never disappointed.

friendly professional service However, extremely expensive: Two side dishes (red cabbage, fried potatoes and sauce) for 18.90!! Red cabbage can be prepared in 1,000 ways. The style of the house was too dry for me and didn't suit my taste. Other family members left the red cabbage on the plate. Because I was very hungry, I ate it anyway.

Very good food, portion OK for us too. Four of us had Christmas dinner today.

Steakhouse Eldorado has been our Christmas Eve tradition for years – and it never disappoints! As always, the food is excellent and the service is extremely friendly and attentive despite the restaurant being full. The prices are absolutely fair for the quality of the steaks. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Great service, delicious food, just great!!!

The food was good, as was the service.

Food was okay, price was upper limit.

Very tasty, great ambience despite being in the middle of the Ruhr area

An absolutely fantastic steakhouse! The food was incredibly tasty - the steaks were cooked to perfection and the side dishes were simply delicious. The service was outstanding: friendly, attentive and always present without being intrusive. I was particularly impressed that there was hardly any waiting time between ordering and being served. The regular inquiries as to whether everything was okay were also just the right amount. Absolutely fair price for the quality offered here. Clear recommendation – I’ll definitely be back!

Is your meat halal? If so, why is it not written anywhere? Even your website doesn't say anything about halal Can you change that, right?

Highly recommended, especially the burger

Very tasty, friendly service, the best fillet in Bochum, we always like to come back..☺️

Satisfied for more than 30 years

We like to go to El Dorado whether privately or with company. As always, the food is great, the service is great, what negative things can you say otherwise we wouldn't keep coming back with friends and family. We can recommend everything from starters, meat, fish and dessert. Greetings from Beßling GmbH, which of course hosts its Christmas party there like every year.

The service was a complete disaster. We waited almost two hours for our food and everything was messed up. Some things we ordered didn't arrive at all, and even after asking several times, they weren't delivered in full. The chaos continued: at the end of the evening we paid for drinks that we ordered but never received! It seems like neither organization nor customer service is a priority here. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Wir waren heute zu zweit dort essen. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich. Die Speisekarte bietet eine gute Auswahl an Steaks, Vorspeisen, Fisch, und Geflügel Gerichte, so wie verschiedene Desserts. Vorweg gab es Baguette mit Kräuterbutter. Wir hatten Rinderfilet mit Pommes und Prinzess Bohnen und Pefferhüftsteak mit Kroketten und Brokkoli gewählt. Die Steaks waren auf den Punkt gebraten und das Fleisch war qualitativ super. Auch die Beilagen schmeckten sehr gut. Wir werden auf jeden Fall nochmal dort essen gehen.

The two of us ate there today. The reception was very friendly. The menu offers a wide selection of different steaks, appetizers, salads, fish and poultry dishes. We chose a beef fillet with Princess beans and fries, as well as a pepper rump steak with broccoli and croquettes. The meat was of very good quality and grilled to perfection. We will definitely visit this restaurant again.

Super delicious food and the staff very attentive and friendly. We would definitely like to come back.

very, very tasty. Friendly staff and very good prices

We went to the El Dorado steakhouse in Wattenscheid with a group of 15 people and can only say: it was a complete success! The steaks were simply outstanding – juicy, perfectly cooked and of excellent meat quality. Despite being busy, the waiting time was absolutely reasonable and the atmosphere was pleasant. The team looked after us very well and each of us was thrilled, whether with the side dishes or the different steak variations. It's impressive how the quality of the food remains at such a high level with such a full house. We can fully recommend the El Dorado steakhouse – a must for every steak lover! We'll definitely be back

We were there with our company last night for the Christmas party. I sat in front of an empty beer glass for an hour. After more than 2 hours we finally had our food. The older head waiter seemed very overwhelmed to me and perhaps the good one should think about his retirement. After more than 4 hours we were all finished and paid. I give it 2 stars because the fillet steak was really good.

Very good food in a nice atmosphere. Thank you, we'll be happy to come back

My husband and I were there for the first time today and we are absolutely thrilled. The staff was super nice and accommodating, the food came really quickly and in perfect time. The portions are also optimal. Everything tasted 1A. We would love to come back!

Absolut Empfehlenswert! Sehr herzlicher Service, freundlich und sehr bemüht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Zum Essen können wir nur sagen, dass es für uns das beste, authentischste Steakhaus in Bochum ist. Die Qualität des Fleisches ist überragend. Alles wird auf den gewünschten Punkt zubereitet.

All around an excellent restaurant.

very tasty food and the herb butter is also baba. staff very accommodating

I ate here for the first time with my girlfriend and we were overjoyed. The service was great, as was the food - the whole El Dorado team is super nice and responds to requests. We would definitely come back and always recommend the restaurant! :)

We had a great evening with delicious food and super nice service We'd love to come back

Great food, have been there a lot in the last few weeks. Great staff, extremely nice owner

Wir hatten für 5 Personen zum Abendessen reserviert, mussten bei Ankunft jedoch feststellen, dass der Tagungsraum von der AfD und deren Sympathisanten für eine Veranstaltung belegt war. Da weder wir noch unsere Freunde im selben Lokal wie AfD -Fans den Abend verbringen wollten, haben wir das Lokal, mit entsprechenden Ansagen an den Betreiber, wieder verlassen. Wir werden diese Erfahrung im Freundes-und Bekanntenkreis kommunizieren.

Good food, friendly and courteous staff, reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

I would like to give 10 stars for the service. Really good. Food was also really good. All wishes were accepted and implemented.

We have been here again and again over the last decades, be it as a couple, with friends or for family reunions. The food is delicious and the meat is prepared as requested. Side dishes lavish. The only three points for the ambience are because the restaurant is relatively dark inside due to its construction. Wattenscheid itself is not worth a visit, the steak restaurant El Dorado absolutely is.

As always, a dream. The best steak in the area. We always enjoy coming back ☺️

We've been coming here for a few years and there's nothing to complain about. The fillet is spot on and the service is perfect.

Everything here is great, highly recommended. Always my pleasure.

Excellent restaurant 💪 all recommendations

Decently large portion. Tasty. Waiting time isn't too long either. Staff friendly and nice. Gladly again. Seating also outside.

Every visit so far has been great! Service 1+ super nice and attentive. Kitchen 1+ super delicious food. Always my pleasure!

The food was delicious and comfortable to sit outside.

399g entrecote perfectly prepared and without any side dish just how “husband” loves it!!

Excellent restaurant, nice ambience outside, cozy. Great staff and the food.., simply outstanding..! I would like to give more stars, but we are limited with the number, but a 10/10 for me personally.

Pretty good, it used to be better.

The restaurant is very cozy and nicely decorated. The acoustics are very pleasant, calm music plays and you can have a good conversation. The service is very friendly and accommodating.

The food was simply fantastic from the starter to the dessert! The meat & side dishes for the main course were very delicious and fresh. The service was very, very friendly and attentive! I was there with my one-year-old child and was amazed at how child-friendly this restaurant is. My little one was also brought fruit to the table without being asked and we were often asked whether we liked it. We will come back !

Very tasty food, steak cooked to perfection. Salad buffet also good!

We ate there for the first time today and we are thrilled. Very nice service. Cozy pleasant atmosphere. The food was incredibly tasty and of top quality 👍. We would be happy to come back and of course we would be happy to recommend you!

Great restaurant, very nice staff, and delicious food. 😋

It was a very beautiful evening. The food and service were very good 👍 The restaurant is highly recommended. All in all very nice

Super tasty food and very nice service. Price reasonable.

The best food we've had in Germany! The service is at the highest level, the food is fresh and tasty, everything was prepared quickly, great! We will definitely return.

One of the best steakhouses I had a chance to eat at. Stuff is super friendly and ready to help. Food is AMAZING! We ate a whole platter with bunch of different meats and salads are free and you can take as much as you can. Definitely come and check it out.

The juiciest and best seasoned stake in Germany 👌🏼 loved the salad island, huge variety of fresh vegetables. The waiting time was short and the server gave us great performance cutting the meat !

So, they can definitely do steak. There are also vegetarian dishes, well and a vegan one.

Great food and service very accommodating!

A really friendly team and the food is amazing. Personally, I can only recommend it!

Great service, not an excessively long wait. The food tasted excellent and the portions were enough even for hungry people. Gladly again, greetings Gerd & Sabine (Jörg & Ingrid).

We have been to El Dorado several times and the food, especially the meat, is great. We were also very satisfied today.

Wir mussten sehr lange auf das Essen warten , 1 1/5 Stunden . Es war aber auch sehr voll. Service sehr schlecht, kein Personal . Es gab wohl nur 3 Bedinungen, wie ich gesehen habe. Beim bezahlen kam der Kellner mit der Rechnung nicht zurecht, da wir mehrere Personen waren und er alles auseinander rechnen musste. Hat mehrfach trotz Taschenrechner gerechnet und sich öfter vertan.

Wie immer ein toller Service, das Essen sehr lecker . Gestern Abend mussten wir ein bisschen warten aber es hat sich gelohnt. Sehr empfehlenswert 👍

Essen mit 6Personen, nach 2Stunden Wartezeit Schweinechampignon Schnitzel nicht durchgebraten und Cordon Bleu vom Schwein unter der Panade pures rohes Fleisch. Salatbuffet um 20.45 leergefegt und wurde auch nicht aufgefüllt. Da muss man sich fragen, warum das Restaurant so voll ist, ich besuche das Restaurant seit 40Jahren. Nach der Reklamation kamen zwei Personen aus der Küche und haben sich entschuldigt. Die Entschuldigung wurde angenommen, aber ich empfehle das Restaurant nicht weiter.

Sehr leckeres Essen hohe Qualität tolles Team

Es hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt. Das Personal war nett und aufmerksam.

Nach Umbau und Neueröffnung,einfach top. Freundliche,kompetente und schnelle Bedienung und natürlich hervorragendes Essen...Wir kommen gerne wieder 👍

Essen hat allen an meinen Tisch sehr gemundet, Service war aufmerksam und schnell,Alles in Allem ein gelungener Abend.

Sehr leckeres Essen, personal sehr sehr freundlich!

Alles perfekt ,ein rundum toller Abend. Und natürlich war das Servieren des Tomahawk ein Highlight, bestes Steakhaus!!!

Also hier stimmt wirklich alles zusammen! Das Esses ist eine reine Wucht, dazu einen leckeren 😋 Rotwein! Die Portionen sind sehr groß und lassen keine Gast hungrig gehen. Wir wurden außerordentlich gut und freundlich bedient. Eine Reservierung ist anzuraten.

Wie gewohnt exzellente Qualität. Das Fleisch auf den Punkt gebraten. Sehr zuvorkommender Service. Auch wenn es voll war, das Essen hat nicht lange auf sich warten lassen. Durch den Schnitt des Restaurants wird es auch nicht zu laut. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Waren Heiligabend das erste mal dort. Die Einrichtung ist sehr gemütlich. Das Essen wurde sehr ansprechend serviert und war sehr lecker. Die Service- Mitarbeiter waren durchweg zuvorkommend, schnell und alle sehr freundlich. Wir haben uns als Gäste willkommen gefühlt und hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt dort.

Es ist einfach nur schön hier! Das Essen ist sehr lecker und zwar alles was ich hier schon gegessen habe! Die Bedienungen sind super nett! Man fühlt sich richtig wohl hier!

Gute Fleischqualität und lecker zubereitet. Das Salatbuffet war für den Preis etwas dürftig. Desserts langweilig

Super Service, alle super nett und das Essen war wie immer auf den Punkt gegart und super lecker

Essen war sehr lecker Haben 75€ bezahlt sehr kleine Portionen .und sind danach noch woanders Essen gegangen. Nicht mit Hunger dahin gehen

Erst mit dem 4 Anlauf geschafft mein Essen zu bekommen, das Allerletzte. Beim ersten Versuch dicke Pfefferschicht auf dem Steak, welches ich so nicht bestellt habe. Und ich wünsche nicht dass Andere entscheiden wieviel Pfeffer auf mein Steak kommt, vor allem wenn man es mehrmalig betont hat. Beim zweiten Versuch komplett durchgebraten, total trocken und innerhalb von zwei Minuten am Tisch, es war bereits fertig und lag schon bereit darum. Dritter Versuch wieder komplett durchgebraten, lag auch schon darum so wie der Kellner sagte. Das ist schon peinlich für ein Steakhaus. Vor allem als ich dann endlich beim vierten Anlauf mit dem Steak zufrieden war, so wie ich es auch bestellt hatte waren die restlichen Familienmitglieder schon lange mit dem Essen fertig. Die Kellnerin sahen wir gar nicht mehr wieder, wir konnten zu Beginn Getränke bestellen, haben ein zweites Mal Getränke bestellt die wir nie bekommen haben aber auf der Rechnung stehen hatten. Man sollte sich soviel zumuten soviel man auch schaffen kann. Und man kann nicht alles mit dem Weihnachtsstress entschuldigen. Wir sind Alle sehr enttäuscht.

War alles super! Sind sehr zufrieden!

Auf Getränke kann man warten und wenn sie kommen dann auch noch doppelt.Das Essen lau warm serviert. Kann ich nicht weiter empfehlen

"Wenn dein Beruf zur Passion gehört, merken das deine Gäste." Wir waren das erste Mal zu Besuch. Reserviert via Webseite. Erinnerungs-SMS und Email kurz vorher (top). Dort angekommen wurden wir freundlich und warm empfangen. Das Personal hatte praktisch nur Augen für seine Gäste. Essen und Getränke (Vorspeise/Hauptgang) kamen in einem schnellen, angenehmen Tempo. Das Essen war geschmacklich und optisch on top. Einwandfrei und vorallem lecker!✨️ Das Ambiente ist ein Traum. Supergepflegt und man fühlte sich "zuHause". Danke für diesen tollen Abend und hoffentlich auf bald. Klasse Team im El Dorado. 🥰🤗

Man fühlt sich immer wohl und man wird immer herzlich begrüßt und toll bedient.

Sehr zuvorkommendes Personal, dass Essen hat uns allen sehr gemundet.Definitiv kommen wir wieder.
