Dorado's Dive Club - Freeport

Very interesting place. Restaurant upstairs. Bar downstairs. The service was somewhat unstructured. But the food was good. The atmosphere was so.ewo between bar and hole in the wall restaurant (good). Then it went down to the bar and the staff was very nice (as well as above). Drinks were good. Live music was a welcome distraction.

There are a number of positives about Dorado. First and foremost, the service. Our waitress was kind, competent and friendly. I had badly bruised my thigh about an hour earlier, and my wife asked her if she could make an ice pack. I shrugged this off. ?Seriously?! I asked myself. ?Why would my wife ask that at a restaurant.? But the waitress said, ?Sure! I can make one.? And she did. A Glad bag and paper towels. Then my wife asked if they had frozen margaritas. ?No, but I can make you one.? And it went like that. Great service. The chips and queso were good, but the chips were a little thin/light. Toward the middle of the meal, they had become a little soggy from the humidity! I had the grilled fish tacos. PSA: the ?fired? fish option is a menu glitch; it?s supposed to read ?fried.? But the three tacos, generously packed, were excellent. The side of elotes was absolutely delicious. My wife had the fried fish, and she said the Tartar sauce was excellent. Fries were ok. The vibe/decor was ok, but not great. Dorado sits over a bar, The Well, and there?s live music, which admittedly can be a plus if you?re in the mood. I did hear them do a good cover of Hendrix?s ?Hey, Joe.? Prices were good for market. Chips and queso was $6, margarita was $9 ! , but entrees were reasonable.

Funny food! Drinks were great, appetizers were meh, dinner was good. Hubs had the **** Mary and Burger speaks for themselves! I had the shrimps Tacos and Mermaid? Water not as a fantasy of a presentation as a hub? Drink, but just as delicious. Live music below, service to your boat if you want.

10 stars. Best food, best **** Mary's, best service, best view of the ICW. We had an incredible dinner. First mini crab cakes, then seafood platter. Then enjoyed watching a beautiful Viking trawler pull up. All around 10 stars. You now have two loyal customers for life. Take my money please! ? ????

A pretty good experience while eating lunch. Not a fancy menu, but the food was good, delicious actually. We got to seat at the table of our choice and got a great view of the channel and the boats and barges going up and down while we were enjoying our meal. The waitress was very nice and polity and has a great time entertaining my 10-year old son. Did I mention that this place is very close to the beach and not crowded if you choose in-between hours?!
