Zsolt & Elizabeth
Founders & Chefs

We are Elizabeth and Zsolt, the founders of El Dorado Taqueria. Together, we bring the bold, vibrant flavours of Mexico to weddings and special celebrations across Scotland.

Elizabeth’s roots are in Michoacán, where family recipes and traditional cooking techniques were passed down through generations. Those traditions form the heart of our menus today. Every dish we create is inspired by authentic Mexican home cooking — slow-cooked, full of depth, and made with care.

Zsolt brings years of hospitality and event experience, ensuring that every wedding runs smoothly and every guest feels welcomed. From the first enquiry to the final taco served, we focus on creating an experience that feels warm, generous, and memorable.

Our mission is simple: to serve genuine Mexican food that brings people together. We combine traditional methods with carefully sourced Scottish ingredients, hand-selected chillies, and fresh preparation to create food that is both authentic and refined.

We work closely with every couple to tailor menus around your vision, your guests, and your celebration style — whether that’s a relaxed taco feast, elegant plated service, or a full evening fiesta.

For us, it’s never just catering. It’s sharing our culture, our story, and our hospitality on one of the most important days of your life.
