In Short – Super-friendly waitresses in flamenco skirts serve up mounds of Mexican food and make sure you're happy, no matter how busy they are. It has all the usual suspects: tacos, enchiladas, burritos, tostadas, Spanish rice and refried beans. But there are a few surprises worth investigating. Combination dinners will satisfy indecisive diners and the nacho supreme, a generous platter of chips, cheese and ground beef, is topped with fresh, homemade guacamole. And if you love sweets, crunchy Mexican fried ice cream is a must.

Fabulous!
by AnnieBananie
El Matador has the best food. The salsa is so fresh filled with lots of vegetables and excellent flavor! It comes out warm...get cheese to put in it! It's delicious! The restaurant is so pretty and always clean. And the owner sure is a sweet man. He always brings our kids treats when we come in! It's the best in town for the price. The pork rio bravo is AMAZING. Yum, yum, yum!
- Pros: Most yummy salsa ever!
- Cons: None...

The BEST.
by AprilDay
El Matador is our favorite. The food at El Matador is the best! Literally. We've eaten Mexican at every establishment in Bountiful, and several other cities and states, and El Matador is still our number one. Maybe it's the homemade and flavorful BUBBLY hot enchilada sauce, or the fact that the owner hand picks the tender slow roasted meats...perhaps it's the atmosphere (The restaurant is gorgeous and the decor is so tasteful!), or the knowledge that the ALL the food is delicious and made IN HOUSE. I'm not sure where the magic comes from. All I know is El Matador is an experience that is definitely worth the trip!
- Pros: Amazing food, service and atmosphere!
- Cons: Such busy weekends!

Great family restaurant
by silvertop
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.
- Pros: large portions, low prices
- Cons: It's crowded on weekends
