My name is Marcial (Frankie) Sandoval, the son of there oldest daughter Elizabeth Gallardo Sandoval. The first review I read about El Matador has something written on the blog that is not true!!!!! El Matador had been under only one owner for 40 Years! Please change your comments to show what is true!!! Tony, the chef has not been employed at El Matador for over 25 years. I know that Chava still works there but he was a bus boy for his first 15 years from his start date of employment. This is where I grew up since 1978, running and playing and raising my own family now, inside that restaurant. I want to make sure that no lies are circulating inregards to El Matador. If you have any questions please email me at sandovalmarcial@yahoo.com. I can prove with documentation that I am Marcial's grandson.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20215605.post-54273363273528419982008-06-27T11:38:00.000-07:002008-06-27T11:38:00.000-07:00Amazing restaurant, food and atmosphere.
