I went to Dos Caminos hoping to relive some of the nostalgia from the days when my friends and I used to frequent the place. Unfortunately, the experience did not live up to those memories. I ordered the red sangria, guacamole, taquitos, and cornbread. While the sangria came right away, it took twenty-five minutes to get my food. I watched others at the bar receive their food before me even though I had ordered before them. When the food finally arrived, it was a mixed bag. The guacamole wasn't as chunky as I was expecting and it had no spice at all even though I had asked for spicy guacamole. The taquitos were tasty. The cornbread was sweet and buttery, but the chewy overbaked texture was offputting. The saving grace was the sangria. It was refreshing and not too sweet. read more

The line to get in for a Thursday lunch moved a bit slowly, but once I sat (at the bar), service was prompt and on-point. The bartender served water right away and whipped up a red sangria in no time. She also left my receipt without me asking, making it easy to pay with cash and get out of there without needing to get her attention again. I appreciated that the quesadilla was not oily at all - so it was great finger food. I did wish the steak had had more flavor development. read more

Another 1 star review for the same location I have no idea why I keep trying. As a Laundry's Select member i am not sure I am shocked by the lack of service or the fact I do NOT ever get to use it. Tonight walked in, including myself 4 people at the bar. I waited 13 minutes and was never greeted and once I turned around the bartender and host were literally just standing there talking. Made eye contact and kept talking! As I walked out a waiter who standing near the front door smoking went to come in as the same time as my exiting and waited till I opened the door for him. This place honestly has the worst service at the bar!! Can I get a refund on membership?? read more

I came here for a family member's birthday & had a pretty good experience. The nachos were the highlight of the night & were perfectly placed & plated for everyone at our table to enjoy. I ordered the chicken quesadilla & enjoyed it, but other people I came with ordered beef & birria tacos & weren't too crazy about the flavors in both dishes. Our waiter was very patient & attentive with us & the restaurant decor was very picturesque. Overall a good time, not sure if I'd come back here for a special occasion though. read more

Visited Dos Caminos on a weekday for lunch, and it was absolutely delicious! The restaurant was extremely empty in the afternoon, so there was plenty of seating on both the first and second floor. The interior was decorated colorfully and festively. We asked plenty of questions to our waiter, who was patient and helpful. The food arrived speedily. I was really impressed with all the dishes we ordered! The Shrimp Enchiladas Suizas were particularly memorable. I enjoyed the citrus-chile marinated shrimp, which paired well with roasted corn, cheese, poblano rajas, salsa suiza, crema, and queso fresco. It was a rich and hearty meal with plenty of flavor. All the appetizers I tried were also really good. The Cantina Nachos had so many toppings, and the Taquitos de Pollo featured a perfectly crispy exterior. I can't wait for my next visit! read more

The manager or the owner here is horrible. My father is a delivery driver and had an order to pick up from this establishment. The owner started yelling at my father just for checking if the door was open, saying, "It's my door, you see the door is closed" and speaking to him disrespectfully. My father had an order with a scheduled pickup time, but the owner said, "I'm going to give you the order when I want to, not when you want it." He then wanted my father to go inside bc the door was open now, my dad refused since being treated horrible, then told my father, "I never want you here again. I want you gone." Of course, my father refused to take the order. The way he treated my father was absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. The inside would be dirty as well, everyone in there is nosy too. If I ever step foot in this dirty establishment, you'll have to catch me dead first. No one wants to go to a establishment where they aren't being treated fairly. read more

Service was a bit slow and not as on spot. Waiting a long time to ask if we wanted a drink and then took just as long to get them. The food was good , not much spice to it and wasn't even asked if we wanted any type of hot sauces. Still waiting for our server to ask if everything was ok and if we wanted desert. Ambiance is that of a Mexican restaurant but high class. Just need better service. My star rating is based on service. read more

Dos Caminos - Menu - Tacos Near Me - New York, New York

This is a solid spot for lunch, especially if you're near Grand Central and need a place that can easily accommodate a group. The space is large, lively, and comfortable, making it a great choice for bigger parties or even a casual work lunch. The menu has plenty of options, so there's really something for everyone to enjoy. I ordered the fajitas, and they came out sizzling hot, full of flavor, and generously portioned, definitely hit the spot. For dessert, I went with the churros and ice cream, and it was the perfect sweet ending: crispy churros with just the right amount of sugar and cinnamon paired with creamy ice cream. Overall, a convenient, spacious, and tasty option right in the heart of Midtown. read more

Our waiter was great (Cesar), the food was good and it's a great atmosphere in there. Very lively. My only complaint would be that the portions are on the small side, very little beans served with the fajitas and even less guac. But all in all I would go back. Big shout out to Cesar that did a great job serving us. read more

This is a fun spot. Great margs and good food. Dos Caminos has been around for ages and it's a staple. This was my first time in this location and Cesar, our waiter, was awesome. Super attentive, friendly, and on his A-game which really made our experience that much better. read more

The perfect spot for lunch. It's very affordable for it being in the middle of Manhattan. The guacamole was good and fresh, just lacked seasoning. The enchiladas were flavorful. The burrito was massive, but also very good. Server was attentive to us. Overall, I'd recommmend this place. read more

Great Mexican spot for a sit down and night out option with a huge cocktail menu! I came with my extremely vegetarian friend and we shared guac for the table and they were able to give us the queso enchiladas with green sauce (mole was not veg!!) and we ended up splitting that and it was delicious! read more

Our server ceasar-A was so helpful and went beyond since we had more than a few questions with the menu. Amazing service actually! He recommended birria tacos and it was absolutely yummy! It came with a dipping sauce- consume. I will definitely get that again. Im not a tequila drinker but he recommended a flavored margarita it so i tried it. And ended up liking the margaritas! read more

I can't say enough great things about Cesar A. I went with a group of my best girlfriends last night to the 480 Lex location in NYC. Cesar was just an amazing, fun and incredibly efficient server from the jump and this combined w my love of Dos Caminos food and drinks made this one of the best experiences yet. I seriously feel like you can't ask for better margs or Mexican food and Cesar brought that to the next level! thank you and will for sure be back soon :) read more

Cesar B and Chef Edgar went out of their way to make sure my group was happy. So personable and attentive, Cesar really made our night. Food is solid. Drinks phenomenal (great happy hour). Amazing vibe for large groups! We can't wait to go back to visit our new friends. read more

All I can say is WOW! What an exceptional experience with our waiter Cesar B. This location is so pleasant from the moment you walk in, to the ambience, and the food. He helped us with our food choices in addition to helping it come out quickly due to our very antsy toddler. We thank him so much for making this a memorable one for our family. Moments like these are worth cherishing. Thank you Cesar and I hope you get acknowledged for this. Many blessings and happiest new year - this is a MUST come and see. You will not regret it. read more

I seldom ever write one star reviews. The one star goes to my server, she was very sweet and helpful. Let's start with the $5 chips and salsa, the salsa was actually decent. The chips were a combination of stale, salty and undercooked (the chips were "glued" together by the oil they were cooked in); so for five bucks I got a cup of good salsa. Let's move on to the main course, I ordered their 8oz carne asada made with skirt steak. Ordered it medium rare, I think it was rare but there was no way to discern that because the steak was buried at sea in a gloopy mess of salty melted cheese, some other sauce along with some actually good pinto beans. The steak was cut up into strips in the mess, it seemed like it was untrimmed, there was a layer of gristly fat that's endemic on skirt steak and needs to be removed before grilling, here it wasn't at all. When I tried cutting the pieces into bite-sized pieces I couldn't. There were also unidentifiable pieces of some type mystery veggies which might've been tomatoes, but who knows? I also asked if it came with tortillas and it did, ONE large tortilla well soaked in the mystery sauce. The server removed the $33 mess from my check and I ended up paying for the overpriced chips and iced tea. Would I come here again? Probably not, they have a long way to go to earn my business back, and can start by going back to making simple food instead of whatever it is they're serving now. read more

A work colleague and I came here for drinks and a quick bite after working hour on a Friday evening. Considering Dos Caminos is near by our work office it was convenient to swing by. I have been to other Dos Caminos location in NYC; but I must say this one on Lexington Avenue was the biggest with 2 floors and a very happening atmosphere. I definitely found the interior decoration and art work appealing. Love the vibes. We ordered a few strawberry margaritas on the rocks that were obviously delicious with a strong mixture of tequila. For appetizers we shared the most delicious and fresh guacamole with crispy chips. We also shared an order of fish tacos. Each order came with three tacos; our waiter recommended we order 4 so we can equally shared in a party of two. It was my first time tasting fish tacos at Dos Caminos and I totally enjoyed the tendered yet juicy and flavorful fish with such yummy seasoning . We also ordered some french fries to soak up the tequila....haha! Overall, the drinks were great; our food selection was yummy and indeed shareable; the atmosphere is obviously delightful with worthwhile entertainment and the customer services our waiters provided were very thoughtful. Thank you Dos Caminos!!! read more

Stopped here for lunch today and was seated at a nice table. Service was a bit slow but the food was good. Nice menu with good Mexican dishes. A nice choice of Tacos to Burritos, Enchiladas, salads, Fajitas and more. Chicken Tacos come 3 to an order. Soft corn tortillas stuffed with chicken, lettuce, tomato, cheese and guacamole . Served with a small side of rice and beans. Chicken Cobb Salad - a large bowl with marinated chicken, tomato, avocado, chorizo, grilled corn, onion, queso fresco, and a side of cilantro-basil vinaigrette dressing. Happy Hour Monday - Friday 3-6 and all day on weekends. read more

A couple of my colleagues were looking to unwind after work, and since this Dos Caminos location is close to our office we decided to head over. I didn't know much about the place before going, but how can you go wrong with some chips, guac, and drinks? Dos Caminos is a chain with locations throughout the country - this is the first time I had been to one, so my opinion of the chain is solely based on this experience. Walking in, we were greeted by a grand space - high ceilings, high-top tables, and a bar along the back wall. It looked like there may have been a second floor with more seating, but we didn't explore that. We didn't have a reservation, but the bar seating was first-come first-served so we sat at some open seats there. The vibe was loud, with simple decor and clean lines. Before food, we got some drinks. I started with the Watermelon which was fine but didn't have a lot of watermelon flavor - it was also green which made me confirm I got the correct drink (I did). I guess my mind always thinks watermelon stuff is pink/red. Anyway, for round two I got the jalapeño margarita which was better. For food we got some shareables: chips with guac, queso fundido, and camarones alambres. Everything was fine; the guac was chunky (a good thing) but I would like to have seen more seasonings/flavor added. The queso fundido again lacked flavor, but the chorizo helped a bit. The camarones was the most noteworthy thing we ordered - they were wrapped in bacon and served with a flavorful slaw. Service was good - the bartender was really attentive and made sure we were taken care of. Overall, I had a fine experience at Dos Caminos. The food didn't blow me away, but for an after work spot to unwind and socialize, this is a good midtown option. read more

A bit pricey for tacos and quesadillas, $40+ without tax. The tacos were juicey and the sides of rice and beans were good, but I've had better. I felt like it was lacking something. It's really spacious with two floors for seating. The service on the second floor was a little slow, but that might be because of the size of the restaurant. Lots of businesses nearby hold their office lunches/dinners here. read more

I came here because this was the easiest to get to from my dr appt. The location is nice and the space is huge. Plenty of seating at the bar area and great for groups. The bartender was great he was very nice and apologized for a mistake that wasn't even really his. So I ordered the Cameron's alambres cheese stuff bacon wrapped shrimp. It sounded so delicious my mouth was watering for it. Well the bartender put it in and the I order my drink, the Spicy Cucumber Mint. Maybe 10mins later the bartender tells me they don't have it....who didn't let the front of the house know? I was disappointed but the drink was really well made and I was so hungry I went with the basic azz taquitos. For my meal I went with the fajitas steak and shrimp. The steak was well seasoned and tender. It had just the right amount of grilled veggies. Overall the tex-mex meal was good. I maybe back so I can try that app. read more

My girlfriends and I had the BEST experience! The first time we came we got seated upstairs where it was a bit quieter which was great for catching up. The food was great but the best part was our waiter Cesar B. He was so attentive, funny, didn't rush us, and just made the whole night so much fun! We LOVED our food! It was because of Cesar B that we recently came back again and this time it was PACKED, we were seated in the main dining area downstairs so it was a bit lively but it was so much fun and again we got Cesar B who made everything great! We love it here. I am just looking forward to the scaffolding coming down. We will definitely be back - but only if we get Cesar B :-) read more

We were in NY with our kids (7 and 10) a few weeks ago. An experience unlike any they have had. After five days - we were exhausted and as we were staying a few blocks from Dos Caminos, we decided to go in for a drink and dinner they would probably accept. Our server was Cesar B. and he was incredible. His spirit, attentiveness and effort to engage our girls turned the day around. Despite being hard blocked by our 7 yr old on every menu item --- he came through with ice cream (punt!). I appreciated his service to some exasperated parents. The food met our expectations and the atmosphere was very welcoming! read more

We visited Dos Caminos on 5/17 to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and we're still smiling about it. Cesar B. was our server, and he was nothing short of phenomenal--funny, incredibly personable, and somehow managed to anticipate everything we needed, almost like he could read our minds. He created a vibe that was relaxed, celebratory, and unexpectedly hilarious in the best way possible. The food? Absolutely exceptional--every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. Between the ambiance, the amazing service from Cesar, and the outstanding food, it was a five-star experience all around. We'll be back to this location every time we're in town--no question. Thank you for making our anniversary unforgettable, Cesar! read more
