Trust us, you need to try this place.
El Gordo Seafood, on West Davis Street near the Bishop Arts District, has a big patio, a great setting for seafood and a cold cocktail. This is the second location of the restaurant, which specializes in ceviches and seafood boils. The space is owned by West Dallas native Jose Ornelas, who has always aspired to own a restaurant. Eddy Giron oversees the kitchen.We went on a recent Saturday, with perfect weather for al fresco dining.
We went with the ceviche , served on a long rectangular tray with more than enough seafood and avocado for two of us. We had a hard time polishing it off despite a good effort. Fresh, light and sprinkled in citrus, this was a beautiful accompaniment to a nice May day.When we asked our server,"What's good here?" he suggested the Cajun pasta , which threw us off at first. But we soon learned why he did. This dish comes stuffed within an inch of its life with cheese and protein.
We can imagine long afternoons on the patio with several more drinks, which several parties were knee-deep in. The service was particularly fantastic, too: They actually apologized for bringing our drinks out so fast."It's not pre-made, I promise. Our bartender is just super fast." Nice. El Gordo Seafood, 451 W. Davis St. Sunday – Thursday, 11 a.m. – 10 p.m.; Friday – Saturday, 11 a.m. – 11 p.m., it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we'd like to keep it that way. With local media under siege, it's more important than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
