Came here for dinner with friends and it was a nice enough experience. It wasn't crowded but service was a little slow. It was very friendly, however. We started with guacamole, which was okay. We asked for it medium and it was very bland.....I didn't taste any cilantro. I had a cadillac margarita, which was also fine. For my main, I had a shrimp quesadilla. That was pretty good. It would have been great if it had some beans on the side but there was a little quac, and that was fine. We were hoping for dessert but they only had churros and ice cream so we would have passed. Would have loved some tres leches or something. This is a reliable place for food that tastes okay and does not break the bank.

Dos Caminos overpriced 3 Taquitos

I'm only recommending Dos Caminos for 1 thing.... if you want to meet someone from out of town in Times Square and you want a seat to view all the action at that corner with TKTS. Otherwise: 1) The music was jacked up to the point we had to shout even though we sat right next to each other at the window counter, 2) Happy Hour prices are only at certain sections of the place, 3) It's ridiculously overpriced, 4) The food was OK, but there are many better Mexican spots a stone's throw away and elsewhere in the city. As my out-of-town friend who was at a hotel on W 46th noted, this is a place she knows I will never, ever go back to!

Upstairs and the bar area are kind of bland, but downstairs is a total vibe. Drinks were great food was good. Guac wasn't the best. We stopped for dinner before our Broadway show for a friends birthday. Would definitely come back.. customer service was really good.

Great place to dine.

We chose Dos Caminos as our pre-theater dining and it was perfect. We were seated downstairs and the place was lively and full of happy customers. As always, the service is stellar and every time is presented at comfortable intervals. We started with a frozen Prickly Pear Margarita and a Prickly Pear Mocktail. Both were refreshing and my pleasantly enjoyed brain freeze made it a highly recommended libation. Our entrees were both Tacos and they did not disappoint: Carne Asada Tacos and Vegan Cauliflower Tacos. Each were accompanied with rice and the Carne Asada Tacos also came with refried beans. Their seasoning was on point, each plate came with three soft tacos, and both courses were filling. Dos Caminos will always be at the top of my list and I'm glad that they are situated in the very heart of Times Square.

I love the location of this spot! It's right in Times Square and you can sit and watch all of the NY craziness from near the bar. I had fish tacos that were so yummy and filling & a passion fruit margarita. This place was super cute and affordable. Heads up they have a great happy hour but you can only take advantage of it if you are seated at the bar! I would come back :)

Gorgeous establishment and delicious food. Came here with my friend for an after broadway dinner. I loved the interior and the food. I had the taco bowl salad and a margarita. Both were delicious! I will definitely be back!

Queso Fundido (comes with 4 tortillas) and Beef empanadas (3) took the pic after my company started to indulge.

I've brunched at Dos Caminos before and always had the most pleasant experience. I've had my first dinner there and it was different. Margaritas (classic) tasted off. Almost artifical. Not sure if they used fresh limes. Couldn't even finish it. Apps seemed smaller, though delicious. Three entrees were served but two had to share a portion of rice and beans. I found it quite peculiar. I've never gone to a Mexican restaurant where rice and beans were shared with the table. Those entrees were the "Dos Enchiladas", which for what you got, the price point didn't seem to match. We were also told all entrees came with rice and beans. I got the crispy beef picadillo tacos. They were delicious and legit crunchy/crispy. My tacos held up perfectly and didn't break once bitten into. A very satisfying bite and I always appreciate a good sturdy taco. Nothing came with condiments. There was no salsa (save for a tiny thimble for my tacos), Pico de gallo or sour cream. I always found that to be a staple with any mexican dish. Perhaps they're doing things differently. I did end up asking for them. The ambiance is always on point as they have a ton of space to work with. It was lively and pretty busy. There is better Mexican but in the middle of Times Square, this will do just fine if you're looking for a quick, tasty bite.

This gem is a few steps off Times Square, like an oasis from that chaos. Margaritas are so good here, I loved the pomegranate one! We are from the Midwest (so lots of Mexican food experience) and this is my daughter's favorite place to go in NYC. She got the big bowl of tortilla soup - fabulous! Quesadillas also great! I think they have the BEST nachos ever, as they dressed each chip with beans & meat. Perfect! I will never have them the old way! Loved everything about this place!

Shrimp Enchiladas
Najwa G.

Dos Caminos is a reliable chain of Mexican food. It's not bad but it's not necessarily good either for the price, hence the 3 stars. My friend & I both got the shrimp enchiladas which were alright. As for the drinks, I say stick with the wine versus the margaritas as they're way too sugary (& I love sugar). All in all, this is a solid grab & go spot for a quick pre-theater dinner.

Birria Tacos, Rosemary Pomegranate Margarita  Both very good
Erin M.

Cute spot attached to the W Hotel Times Square. Was staying at the hotel so popped in for a quick lunch. Yummy Rosemary Pomegranate Margarita and delicious Birria Tacos. More bar space than table space -just fyi if they are busy, getting an actual low-top table with chairs might be difficult.

I went to Dos Caminos in Midtown for a team lunch with coworkers. We each ordered our own entrée and also got chips with salsa and guac for the table. The chips were great--I ended up eating a lot of it. I ordered the combo fajitas (steak and shrimp), based on the waitress's recommendation of popular dishes. Unfortunately, I think they gave me chicken and shrimp instead. Not a dealbreaker, but a bit disappointing. Service was okay--kind of hit or miss. They did a good job clearing plates and remembering to bring things we asked for, like the hot sauce (which helped bring some extra flavor to the dish). But overall, the experience didn't quite live up to the hype. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing really wowed me either. It felt more like a franchise spot trying to feel more unique than it actually is. Would I come back? Maybe. But I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

This restaurant was one of the few that were open and had seating readily available on Christmas night in Times Square. The food was good and wait time acceptable. I had the Birria tacos and my husband had the taco salad which looked amazing. The award-winning drinks we tried were just OK. My meal tasted delicious and authentic. The vibes were good. Only thing I didn't like was there was a literal line to use the bathroom. Maybe that's normal for establishments in Times Square. All in all, I'd definitely return.

We liked this place. 4 of us on Cinco de Mayo with a 5:30pm reservation. Had to wait a bit to sit down and loud as can be! Overall very attentive waiter for as crowded as it was and loved my frozen margarita. For Times Square not the worst expensive spot and overall good queso.

Ok if you wanna ball on a budget and be in midtown come here! $9 for a freaking burger? Unheard of…read moreanywhere in the city unless you know a guy. The mozzarella sticks said 5 of them but we got four of them. They were good none the less. ::bathroom alert:: Very clean bathroom. I was very happy about this because I had just ate. There was tons of soap, it smelled nice in there. The beer and shot special under $10 in the city? Haven't seen that in awhile. The beers are super cheap here as well. They feel like old NY prices! Can't complain. They have four booths in the back maybe it was three. I did notice one of the hanging lights was from an 80s pizza hut joint. Letting you know now the paper towels for your face at the table felt like jail toliet paper, very rough. The bar doesn't have bar stools with backs! You either need to get one or two tables by their mini kitchen, very hot there not recommended for preimenopause or menopausal women or one of the booths. This is a great bar they played 60s music a lot. Heard some weird al too! Very random and fun place to be. The bartender was nice as well as security! Try the burger! Worth the $9!!

We enjoy local bars ! And this bar was perfect for us to wind down with a couple of drinks…read more Great deals and not over crowded. Quick service. We are low key couple and enjoy supporting local businesses. They do offer food but we only wanted a couple of drinks. They have some booths available if you come w friends. So if you just need to wind down stop by local 42 for a drink or two!
