Dos Amigos

So as we were traveling to Chicago, we needed a bite to eat and discovered El Mexicano restaurant…read more I'm glad we did. First, the staff was very friendly and polite. The waiter was prompt and accurate. He was also very personable and it seemed like he knew many of the people at the restaurant. I took that as an indication they had a lot of repeat customers. Next, the food came out quickly and it was hot and tasty. My wife had the taco salad and I had the three street taco meal. My tacos were robust and delicious. We also enjoyed the dessert nachos, which were very good. The chips were excellent. As far as the restaurant, it had a great Mexican motif. Very colorful and vibrant. Additionally, it was clean and inviting.

This place had the best salsa I've ever had at any restaurant. The chips were perfect as well! I…read morehad the burrito suiza. It was beautifully cooked and tender, quite flavorful tiny pieces of steak wrapped in a flour tortilla, smothered in deep red sauce with some cheese on top. Served with refried beans, creamy and hot and a lettuce, tomato and sour cream salad that complimented the dish so beautifully. Very reasonably priced as well!

We tried a total of four different tacos, four different tamales, and a tostada. All were very good but the stand outs were the fish taco, green sauce pork tamale, and the al pastor tostada.

She gave us the standard chips and salsa to start and then brought salsa verde with the meal. I would definitely eat there again, but we were just passing through on vacation. The town is a bit sketchy, but I don't think it was just limited to this section. Hard to know that from just looking on a map, but wanted to throw that out there in case it helps someone else.

The table was dirty and the chairs were sticky. They brought our food. My friend's tacos had no tomatoes, no onions,and only two of them had cheese. The last one did not. My burrito had absolutely nothing on it except for the meat and lettuce. No sour cream, no cheese, no tomatoes, no onions. I pointed this out and asked them to either refund my money or make me a proper one. He said they would make me another one and he brought it out. It had meat, lettuce, a little sour cream, and two little squares of tomato placed strategically at the opening of either half. Still no cheese, still no onion and no other tomato other than the two little squares. I didn't feel like dealing with it again, so I just took it. Then we went to leave and he said that they were out of sacks. If you want to eat there again, you better hurry because I don't think they're going to be there long.

My husband and I LOVE Dos Amigos. It's definitely one of our "go to" spots to grab a quick meal or for take-out when we don't feel like cooking. Their steak tacos are amazing. I've also been pleased with their tortas, guacamole, nachos, and burritos. Their green sauce is awesome too! read more

The beans and rice tasted odd, maybe they used a really salty seasoning mix. It is not like anything I'm used to having with Mexican food and I didn't like it. But given how difficult it is to find edible food on this stretch of highway I would definitely stop here again, probably for tacos al a cart so I wouldnt have the rice and beans. The place is a stall inside of the truck, notna real food truck. It's is designed to look like the side of a food truck. That's not a negative but it's to help you find it if you're looking for it. Also, they were pretty busy on a Friday afternoon, so I guess they're popular here. I can see why they would be.
