Location, hours, and visiting El Governador for Mexican food and seafood.

Where is El Governador in Anaheim?

El Governador is at 1513 E La Palma Ave, Anaheim, CA 92805. We serve Mexican food and mariscos from our Anaheim restaurant. Use the directions link to plan your route from home, work, or your hotel, and call (714) 774-0350 if you need help arranging a visit.

Is El Governador a Mexican restaurant near Disneyland?

El Governador is an Anaheim Mexican restaurant on East La Palma Avenue, outside the Disneyland Resort. If you are looking for Mexican food or mariscos during a Disneyland trip, compare the route from your hotel or park departure point before choosing a pickup time. Travel time depends on your starting point and traffic; we are not a restaurant inside the parks.

What are your hours?

The restaurant’s published contact information lists daily hours of 6 AM to 9 PM. Call (714) 774-0350 to confirm the hours for your visit, especially on holidays or when coordinating a meal around a park reservation. Breakfast items have their own listed service windows, so confirm your chosen dish as well.

Can I make a restaurant reservation?

For a table or a larger dining party, call (714) 774-0350 and share your party size, preferred date, and arrival time. Our team can discuss availability before you make plans. A restaurant table and a catering booking are separate arrangements; completing a catering request does not reserve a table.

What is the story behind El Governador?

El Governador is a family-owned Mexican restaurant serving the Anaheim community for more than 20 years. Our menu brings together Mexican classics and coastal seafood dishes for neighborhood meals, visiting families, and gatherings. The same restaurant also offers catering options for offices, parties, and events.

Mexican food, seafood & mariscos10 questions

Get to know the dishes before you choose your meal.

What Mexican food can I order at El Governador?

Our restaurant menu includes tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas, carne asada, chicken and cheese enchiladas, and beef or chicken fajitas, alongside Mexican seafood dishes. You can explore individual dishes in the readable menu or open the original printed menus. Listed dishes and prices are subject to confirmation when you order.

What does mariscos mean?

Mariscos is the Spanish word for seafood. At El Governador, our mariscos menu includes shrimp cocktails, ceviches, seafood tacos, fish dishes, shrimp entrées, and seafood soups. If you are new to Mexican seafood, tell our team what you enjoy and whether you prefer a hot dish, a chilled dish, or something with less heat.

What Mexican seafood dishes are on the menu in Anaheim?

El Governador’s published seafood menu includes aguachiles, shrimp cocktail, campechana, ceviche de camarón, ceviche de pescado, seafood molcajetes, fish dishes, and shrimp preparations. There are also shrimp empanadas, shrimp burritos, and seafood tacos. Browse the menu for descriptions, then confirm the current preparation and availability with our team.

Do you serve ceviche and aguachiles?

Yes. The published menu includes shrimp ceviche, fish ceviche, mixed ceviche choices, aguachiles, and an aguachile tostada. Preparation, ingredients, and spice levels vary by dish. Ask about how your chosen item is prepared rather than assuming every ceviche or aguachile has the same ingredients or level of heat.

What seafood tacos can I order?

Our menu lists Governador, Camarón y Pulpo, Mar y Tierra, and Ensenada tacos, as well as a shrimp quesadilla and shrimp burrito. These offer several ways to explore the seafood side of the menu. Check the dish description and ask our team about ingredients, portions, and the current preparation before choosing.

Are there options for people who do not eat seafood?

Yes. The published menu also includes carne asada, chicken dishes, enchiladas, tacos, burritos, tortas, and quesadillas. A group can browse seafood and non-seafood dishes together before placing a request. If avoiding seafood is related to an allergy, contact our team about ingredients and shared preparation areas before ordering.

Can I ask about vegetarian or vegan options?

Yes. Published restaurant options include chickpea al pastor tacos, cauliflower ceviche, vegan black bean enchiladas, and a vegan burrito. The catering menu also lists plant-based options. Tell our team your dietary requirements so ingredients, substitutions, and preparation can be discussed. A menu label does not by itself confirm that a dish meets every dietary need.

What can children order?

The published kids menu includes chicken nuggets, shrimp with fries, and a cheeseburger. Families can also explore the wider menu for dishes that suit their group. Ask about ingredients and preparation if a child has allergies, and confirm current portions and availability rather than assuming every adult dish has a child-size version.

Do you serve Mexican breakfast?

The original breakfast menus include breakfast tacos, guiso burritos, tortas, several chilaquiles preparations, tamales, and egg breakfast burritos. They also include café de olla, coffee, atole, and other drinks. Service windows vary by item, so review the breakfast artwork and call to confirm availability for your preferred morning pickup.

Can you accommodate food allergies or a milder spice preference?

Tell our team about allergies or spice preferences before you place an order. Ask about the specific dish, ingredients, and shared preparation areas; do not assume a dish can be made allergen-free or completely free of cross-contact. Our manager can discuss the request and help you understand which changes may be available.

Plan your meals for a Disneyland trip15 questions

Make breakfast, family meals, and hotel food part of your Anaheim itinerary.

How can I include El Governador in my Disneyland food plan?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. Choose the meal you need first: breakfast before your park visit, a pickup during a break, or food for your hotel. Browse the menu, note your group size, and choose a preferred date and time. For a direct request, our team confirms availability and details by phone. Allow for travel and pickup time when building your itinerary. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

Can I request breakfast before going to Disneyland?

You can explore breakfast tacos, burritos, chilaquiles, tamales, and drinks for your morning meal. Confirm the service window for each item and your pickup time by phone before relying on it for an early park arrival. Share when you need to leave for Disneyland so our team can discuss a practical plan.

Can I plan a family dinner for a day at Disneyland?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. Yes, you can explore Mexican food and seafood for a family dinner during your Anaheim stay. Choose dishes for the whole group, including non-seafood and kids menu options where needed. Call to confirm a restaurant visit or request pickup or delivery with a preferred time. Published closing hours may not match your park departure time, so check both. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

Can you deliver Mexican food to my Anaheim hotel?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. You can request delivery to your hotel address or order through the restaurant’s Uber Eats and DoorDash listings. Delivery availability depends on the address, timing, and service you choose. For a direct request, our team confirms the arrangement by phone. Ask your hotel about food-delivery access and where you should meet the driver. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

What details should I provide for a hotel delivery request?

Provide the hotel name, full street address, preferred delivery date and time, your contact name, and a phone number you can answer during the trip. Include useful arrival or meeting instructions. Check the hotel’s delivery rules first; do not assume food can be brought to your room or left at reception without an agreed handoff.

Can food be delivered directly inside Disneyland or California Adventure?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. Do not plan on a restaurant delivery reaching you inside either theme park. Our direct-request experience asks for a delivery address, and delivery access must be confirmed. For a park-day meal, discuss pickup from the restaurant or a permitted hotel or other meeting location instead of relying on an in-park delivery. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

Can I choose my pickup date and time before my trip?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. Yes. The direct-request experience lets you select a preferred date and time for pickup or delivery. Those choices are a request, not a confirmed time slot. Our team confirms availability by phone. If a meal needs to fit a park reservation, airport transfer, or hotel check-in, include that timing constraint when discussing your plan. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

How far ahead should I arrange meals for my Disneyland group?

Contact us as soon as you know your dates, group size, and the kind of meal you need. Larger orders and catering need more coordination than a few individual dishes. We have not published a guaranteed advance-order window, so ask our manager about availability for your dates instead of relying on a fixed lead time.

Can I place one food request for several families traveling together?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. You can build a direct meal request with several dishes or discuss catering for a larger group. Share the total number of people, any dietary needs, and where and when the group will eat. A manager can help compare individual meals, boxed lunches, and a shared spread. Confirm portions and final pricing before deciding. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

What should I order for a group with different food preferences?

Start by separating seafood, non-seafood, and dietary requirements. The published menu includes Mexican seafood, tacos, burritos, chicken dishes, and kids menu choices. For a larger travel group, boxed meals or a taco bar may be worth discussing. Ask our manager to help plan the mix and portions rather than guessing how many dishes will feed everyone.

Can I plan meals for more than one day of my Anaheim trip?

The direct-order flow shown here is a proposed experience, and its forms do not send requests. Share your travel dates and the meals you want help with, such as a morning pickup and a group lunch on another day. Our manager can discuss availability for each meal separately. Each date, menu, and delivery or pickup arrangement needs confirmation; a request for one meal does not automatically book the rest of your itinerary. To arrange food now, call (714) 774-0350.

Can I bring restaurant food into Disneyland?

Check Disneyland Resort’s current outside-food rules before packing a meal. Its official guidance addresses permitted food, containers, and food that requires heating or refrigeration. Choose a meal plan that fits the current rules and how you will carry it. Buying food from El Governador does not guarantee admission of that food into a theme park.

Should I plan to carry mariscos around the parks all day?

Plan to eat your seafood meal when you receive it rather than leaving it in a bag during a long park visit. Before choosing a chilled dish for later, ask our team about the food and check your storage arrangements. A restaurant meal during a break or a hotel meal can be a more practical plan than carrying seafood throughout the day.

Can I order after leaving Disneyland late at night?

Check the restaurant’s confirmed closing and order-acceptance times before planning a late meal. The published restaurant hours end at 9 PM, and availability for a particular order must be confirmed. Delivery platforms display their own ordering availability. A park closing time does not mean El Governador is open at that same time.

Can your manager help plan food for a Disneyland vacation group?

Yes, you can ask our manager to discuss a group meal plan. Share your dates, headcount, hotel or pickup location, dietary needs, and preferred meals. We can discuss restaurant menu options and catering arrangements that may fit your plans. This is a food-planning conversation; El Governador does not provide Disney bookings or park reservations.

Ordering, pickup & delivery8 questions

Know how the request works and how to get help along the way.

Do you offer delivery and takeout?

For delivery, the restaurant is on Uber Eats and DoorDash. You can also explore the proposed direct-request demo to choose dishes, pickup or delivery, and a preferred date. In the proposed live flow, direct requests would require phone confirmation; delivery-platform orders follow the terms and availability shown on the platform you use.

How do I order Mexican food or mariscos online?

Choose between the direct meal builder and a delivery app. In the meal builder, select dishes, adjust quantities, and provide your preferred date, pickup or delivery choice, and contact details. Review the request before completing the demo. For a live platform order, follow the restaurant’s link to Uber Eats or DoorDash.

Is my selected date a confirmed pickup or delivery time?

No. In the proposed direct-request plan, the date and time you choose are preferences for our team to review. The proposed live flow would confirm availability, preparation timing, and delivery details by phone. This preview does not send a request. Do not schedule a park departure or group event around an unconfirmed request. Delivery platforms show their own timing information separately.

What happens after I submit?

The planned live direct-order experience ends with a phone call to confirm the menu, quantities, date, fulfillment details, and final pricing. This design preview does not send an order, message, or callback request. Its completion screen is a demonstration, not a restaurant confirmation. To arrange food now, call the restaurant or use a delivery app.

Do I pay when I make a direct request?

No payment is collected in this direct-request preview. The planned workflow lets you review food choices and share timing before a phone confirmation. Final pricing and any applicable service charges are discussed with the restaurant. Orders placed through a third-party delivery service follow that service’s checkout and payment process.

Are online menu prices final?

The mockup distinguishes published menu prices from sample package estimates. Current dish availability, portion questions, changes, and final direct-request pricing are confirmed with our team. Third-party delivery services show their own pricing and charges. Review the relevant ordering channel rather than assuming a sample catering estimate is a final quote.

Can I change quantities or ask for changes to an order?

The meal builder lets you adjust dish quantities before review. You can also add notes about preferences or request a manager conversation. A note is a request, not a guarantee that a substitution can be made. After a real order is placed, contact the restaurant or the delivery platform you used to discuss whether changes are possible.

Can I get help from a person while ordering?

Yes. The Ask our manager action stays available while you explore, and the direct-request flow includes a manager-call option. You can discuss menu choices, quantities, delivery questions, and event needs. The callback form is a demo here; for help now, call (714) 774-0350.

Catering, business meals & seasonal favorites8 questions

Plan your gathering, office lunch, or tamales order with the right details.

How do I book catering?

Explore the catering menu or start from a sample package, then share your guest count, preferences, date, and pickup, delivery, or event details. Our planned workflow ends with a manager call to confirm availability and final pricing. The mockup demonstrates the request only; call the restaurant to arrange a catering order now.

What are the catering minimums?

General catering has a 10-person minimum. The on-site taquiza lists a 20-person minimum, while the self-serve taco bar lists 10. Minimums and the arrangement for your selected service are confirmed by our manager. For a smaller family meal, compare individual restaurant dishes instead of assuming every catering service fits your group.

What is the difference between a taquiza and a taco bar?

The on-site taquiza includes staffed taco service, while the self-serve taco bar is a spread your guests serve themselves. The published options each include a choice of proteins, with different service details and minimums. Tell us your location, headcount, and how you want to serve the meal so our manager can help you choose.

How long does the taquiza team serve?

The team serves for one hour for 20–50 guests, two hours for 50–75, two and a half hours for 75–100, and three hours for 100 or more. Confirm the service duration for your exact headcount, as the printed ranges overlap at their boundaries. Setup, timing, and any additional service are discussed with our manager.

Can you cater recurring office meals?

You can request recurring catering for a business and discuss a schedule with our manager. Share your company name, guest count, preferred frequency, meal choices, and location. The business request includes weekly, every-two-weeks, monthly, and discussion options. A recurring arrangement is confirmed separately; selecting a frequency in the preview does not create a standing booking.

What are the tamale ordering guidelines?

The seasonal guide starts with six tamales and one filling; for 12 tamales, you can choose two fillings. The published tamale menu includes savory and sweet choices, with warm drinks available to explore. Ask about the current fillings, quantity rules for larger orders, and drink availability when confirming your request.

What is in the fall and winter catering package?

The sample seasonal package features tamales and a warm drink, with pork, chicken, and rajas as the proposed tamale fillings. Proposed masa-based atole and champurrado flavors include chocolate, guava, nuez, and cookies. The package size and price in this mockup are placeholders; our manager confirms the final combination and availability.

Can I customize a catering package for my family or business?

Start with a package, enter your estimated guest count, and describe the changes you have in mind. The seasonal package also lets you explore filling and drink choices. Preferences are carried into your review, but changes, portions, and pricing require a manager’s confirmation. The sample package estimate covers its listed contents rather than every possible adjustment.
