Dos Caminos was pretty solid. We had a reservation for 7 and showed up an hour early and they accommodated us with no problem. They sat us under a ceiling heater, which was so hot that we asked them to turn it off. It was a 60 degree day and heat wasn't needed much. We shared queso and guac - very delicious. Some people had margaritas and everyone seemed to enjoy them. We each had an entree, I had the enchiladas con queso and enjoyed them very much. Every person wiped their plate clean so I think they liked the food! Our server was ok to begin with but then I think he went on a break because for an hour or so, he was MIA and no one came to check on us. By then we had long finished food, sitting with empty plates and empty water and no one assisted. We had to flag down someone else to get the check closed out. Our server reappeared and we closed out the check promptly. The noise level issue was moderately loud, they had someone blasting music when you walk in but if you sit further away, the music shouldn't be an issue. The bathrooms are located down a flight of stairs and were decently clean. We came here because it was the only place that could accommodate a large group after a previous outing of ours nearby, so it was a good option. Would I return if I had other options? Probably not, the food is good but not spectacular and the service could use improvement. read more

The ambience on a rainy Saturday night was lively enough. It wasn't crowded though. The nachos were interesting. Not a pile of chips with toppings. These were individual pieces of chip, meat, toppings. A bit different than expected. The were also soggy unfortunately. They were tasty though. I ordered the skirt steak. Didn't expect it to be swimming in some cheese sauce. That was different. It was tasty but I could've done without the sauce. The dish came in a bowl so it was difficult to slice the steak. We were a party of 6 and the dining room was not full at all. The service was quite slow. Our server had to be flagged down for everything... drinks, food (we ordered everything at once when we saw how long the drinks took) and even the check. Ok choice in the area but keep your expectations low and you may get surprised. read more

While on break I was craving nachos so much. Decided to look up the closest Mexican restaurant. Stumbled upon this one. Since I only had 1 hour and was with my scooter the possibilities of me going inside to check out the restaurant was low. The host was able to accommodate me with seating outside, which was great because the weather was beautiful. One waitress was taking care of the guests outside. She was attentive; while still maintaining tables. Did an amazing job I would say. The food was the problem. It was all over the place and had so many burnt pieces. When i asked for nachos this was not what i was expecting, not sure what i was expecting but it definitely wasn't that. Menus are cute and the drinks were pretty good. View is Manhattan streets lol. read more

Dos Caminos used to be a neighborhood favorite 10 or so years ago, but it's not the same as it used to be. I came here for a birthday dinner with a group of friends. We were a large group and they were able to seat all of us early, which was nice. The food was mid-grade to be honest. We had 2 orders of queso and 2 orders of guacamole. The amount of chips didn't match what you would get and no one ever came back to check in on us. I ordered a taco salad, which was a nice portion. I had a margarita which tasted like a batch mix vs a house made cocktail. Our server dropped off the food and I don't think I ever saw them again. The bussers were the only people to come and check on us. We had an extremely wobbly table in the back of the restaurant. It was loud, so not a place where you could talk. Overall it was okay, but I wouldn't come back to this location. read more

Ordered nachos to compare from here and Electric Burrito. Placed the order on the phone, told them I was looking for good nachos, and I arrived 13min later, 10min walk back. The nachos were terrible. Chips were all glued together and soft. No part was crispy. It didn't sit long enough for it to have gotten that soggy so could tell immediately that the whole dish was microwaved. For the $24 price point this was super disappointing. Definitely dont recommend read more

Great location in the Meatpacking District. The service was excellent. Margaritas were $17. The food was Mexican, but very generic and did not use almost ANY spices- very bland. Many Mexican restaurants better food than this. Unless you happen to be in the area and starving, would move on and find another Mexican restaurant below 14th Street- there are plenty with great Mexican food! read more

I always come here while in NYC. It's conveniently across the street from SOHO house where I stay, so this is alway a stop for me. This girl loves guacamole and I can literally live off of it. So that is a MUST! They have great food but the drinks are amazing! I'll take 10 margaritas please! The service is good, they don't let you eat outside if you're just being a lush so they do make you order food which for me, I love to do anyways. Bring on the appetizers! Everything is always good. Ambiance is giving Mexican Theme, causal, but you know NYC folks are swaggy so some are dressed like models and some are just chill, so come as you are. I'm always in a stiletto and fit perfectly in. Happy Dining Yelpies! read more

The ambiance is great, but the food portion size (though still quite tasty) has seriously shrunk while the prices have really climbed. For some reason they're not running the ac indoors. We experienced quite poor service - we had to ask multiple waiters for basic things, and the waiter was confused about the meaning of veg vs vegan -- so be careful if that's important to you. Then the waiter had the audacity to ask for a 30% tip! We had a lot of left overs bc everyone was unimpressed w the experience. Let me just say though I love Dos Caminos - it's really my favorite and I save it for special occasions. This particular location was very disappointing compared to the others in NYC. Rather than being upscale Tex-Mex, this location is a borderline dive bar (which makes the pricing and request for a 30% tip ridiculous). read more

The main saving grace for this restaurant is their location and large seating area outdoors for a view of the city. We stopped by because of the Great Migration of Elephants exhibit in front of their patio area. The food is average. We ordered guacamole with chips, baja fish tacos, and sizzling fajitas with shrimp. The portions were small except for the chips. However, the shrimp was overcooked and burnt or charred. Non-alcoholic drinks were also overpriced. Our mocktail pina colada was 60% ice for the price of two drinks and more than double the price of our orange juice. The service was so slow that you felt time dragging on. It took forever to order as well as receive our food and takeout boxes, which never came. Hence, we just bagged our leftovers in our own containers and left after paying the bill because we had no clue when our waitress would return. Their staff is friendly, but it seems to run at their pace without considering the customer's time and money. Parking is tough on the street. Perhaps, you can luck out with a nearby lot if you're not taking public transit or a taxi. Given the above reasons, I'll likely try what else the city has to offer unless I absolutely need a break amidst the city for a pitstop her again. read more

My usual go-to spot for amazing nachos, they unfortunately changed their nacho recipe! It's now nacho toppings on tostadas and the portion is way smaller. Very disappointing. Did want to shout out Alejandro though, he is a great server and provided excellent service. Really bummed about the nachos changing. Bring back the original!! read more

A classic Mexican spot serving up tacos and enchiladas -- they're conveniently located right by the West Side Highway, would come back for drinks when their patio is open. The Fish Tacos were tasty, but the rice and beans were nothing crazy. I wish there was the option to order individual tacos rather than a whole platter. read more

Ready for a story? The waiters were great. Very attentive. The street corn and fajitas were great. I would skip the stuffed shrimp appetizer, was a bit underwhelming. The drinks were ok. As we're finishing up dinner, a mouse ran past the window. We jumped up and closed the window. But it didn't stop there, they continued to play outside in the middle of the patio as guests ate outside. It's NY so not much you can do but I would avoid sitting near the windows or outside if you come here. Maybe grab a seat at the bar or away from the windows to be safe. Street parking is scarce in the area so plan ahead. read more

Had an amazing experience at Dos Caminos thanks to Jorgie behind the bar! From the moment we sat down, he was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made the experience so much better. His cocktails were perfectly made, recommendations were spot on, and his energy was fun and professional the entire time. You can tell he really cares about creating a great experience for guests. If you're at Dos Caminos, definitely ask for Jorgie -- he's the best read more

I visited here for restaurant week: you get an appetizer and a main dish for $30. I got the avocado Caesar salad which was okay. My friend asked for agua fresca or Mexican coke and they had none (red flag). I ordered the carnitas tacos which were okay, not very juicy. You can definitely get better at any taco truck in Jackson Heights. I asked for green and red sauce and the waitress said they had no green sauce but that she would bring the red sauce. She ended up bringing chips and salsa. The salsa was trash. I ended up asking another waitress for green sauce and she brought it over right away. The waitress failed to refill our glasses of water and only did it at the very end which defeats the purpose. Dos Caminos is a tourist trap and is an Americanized version of Mexican food. read more

This is one of the best spots in Manhattan to have great Mexican food and drinks outside. There's a ton of outdoor seating along a charming cobblestone street. I like their fajitas- it comes with a heaping portion of sizzling meat full of flavor. I frequently come here for drinks, tacos, quesadillas, nachos, ect. For desert, I like their Dark Chocolate Tamal. Always excellent service, quality food, and a great atmosphere. read more

For my entree, I ordered Chicken Tacos with Rice and Beans. Everything was good. The waitress was very nice and she provided great customer service. The restaurant was busy and the noise was average. I enjoyed my food and the experience at the restaurant was nice. I would tell everyone I know about this restaurant and I will visit again when I'm in the area. read more

Food was good & drinks were ok. We were a party of 6 dining after a wake and wanted to sit in 2 particular areas but was not accommodated.

I came here twice for a lunch outing and I loved the food both times. I had the chicken burrito - it was so filling and absolutely delicious! I don't even usually eat burritos, but these were so bomb. I loved the queso that tops it, and the guacamole was so fresh and tasty. The only thing that I didn't like was the passion fruit lemonade. It was sour & tart. I had happened to have my own pineapple orange Tropicana juice, and used it to sweeten it up. The service was friendly and attentive. We were able to be seated immediately w. no wait. The ambiance was nice. They have indoor/outdoor seating. We chose to sit indoors and was still able to enjoy the fresh air that flowed through some of the open doors. Overall great experience and inexpensive if your on a budget! read more

I came here for an after-dinner drink. For just drinks, they only allow seating at the bar. I love that they have an entire cocktail section devoted to spicy drinks. I got the soho mango. It was quite sweet, but I loved the bold habanero flavor. I hadn't been to this restaurant in years and remembered it being a bit more upscale, but it had a nice, casual vibe. I think its main draw is the ample outdoor seating available during the warmer months. read more

This was my first time at this location, upon arrival we asked for reservation. The place was practically empty so we were able to get a table without one. The waitress was very attentive and prompt. She took our drink orders, I ordered a margarita on the rocks. The margarita was terrible, it was bitter and tasteless. I asked for another one and this time it was perfect. The right mix of tequila, lime juice, etc. I ordered the shrimp fajitas, it was delicious, very well cooked and seasoned. The guacamole and nachos was delicious. I had a great time and experience at this location. read more

The service deserves 4 stars, but we came for the food and it was okay. I have visited several Dos Caminos but this one did not hood a torch to the others for entrees. They were missing flavor. The quesadilla is usually none of my favorites but not today. It was a little too crispy and was breaking apart as I took bites. The sour cream was used too sparingly and could have helped the dry taste. The chimichanga had red beans inside and came with a side of lime rice and black beans. The tenderness of the pork was impressive but it also lacked flavor. My two favorite items were the tuna. That flavor and freshness was spectacular. The Birria was very flavorful putting a different spin on street food. The ambiance was quiet probably due to a Sunday when tourists have left. I have been to this location for appetizers on weekdays at the bar and have been impressed. read more

Food was excellent as always, vibes were great and Rony was an excellent waiter. I got the fish tacos and they were to die for!!

The food was ok for what it was but overpriced. I got carne asada tacos with crunchy shells and my wife got the beer battered fish tacos. Mine were not bad and hers were not good, nothing memorable. The staff couldn't be bothered, servers playing snooty because they think it's fancy. Ridiculous I won't be back. read more

The ambiance was great it was very clean, had exceptional lighting it was also nice and quite a great place to be and felt like it had an authentic Mexican and positive vibe. The service was also amazing our food came very quick and our waitress was kind and to the point. We ended up getting a side of guacamole, it had a good flavour but nothing too crazy. Meanwhile the nachos en cazuela were legendary. it was a burst of flavour that a review can't give justice, but take my word, it was a dish that was so good I couldn't take my hands off until I couldn't eat any more. read more

My advise to the diners is it's better to starve a bit longer than to enter this restaurant. My serious recommendation to the restaurant is either you need a 360 degrees turn in the quality of your food and hygiene or another option is to simply pull down the shutters. 'Appalling' is how I will describe my experience at this over priced place in the busy meat packing district. Cleanliness is a joke, their tables were smelly and silverware had dirty finger prints. We avoided looking at our plates, they say ignorance is bliss and we tried that. Restrooms are disgusting, not regularly maintained and plain dirty. If someone can get tacos wrong then it's best to stop serving food. We ordered two plates of tacos, the shells were hard on the edges; I don't know if they were stale or overcooked. The corn off the cob as the side dish was the only saving grace. We let the manager know, he was just apologetic but no further attempts at damage control. We weren't looking for replacement or money off our bill but some form of gesture shows your seriousness in doing the right thing. We paid $21-$24 per plate to eat stale food. The pics say it all. I'm surprised they have no notice from the health department yet. At last I can say I regret walking in, the joke is on me. read more

Alejandro M was a great server! He was very attentive and friendly! He always made sure we had everything we wanted!

I came here a couple of times to eat, and I was treated well and enjoyed my food. I also purchased food to go a bunch of times, as my friends also enjoy the steak quesadilla. But today... My friend went to pick up our food and they charged her of a delivery fee. When we called (she did not notice at the time of payment), she was faced with a confrontational attitude and was told that the delivery fee is applied because of the plastic containers. what? She was not given the choice and I swear this is the first time I hear of something like that. 6 dollars for ordering and picking up your own food. We didn't even use an app to order, it was done in person. Anything to not own your own mistakes and give back the money, huh? Never again. read more
