We held a family BD dinner here. The food was well prepared and tasty. The ambiance was typical Mexican and enjoyable. The service was very good considering we had 7 folks (some children) and a FIFA World Cup match was on. read more

Mole sauce is horrible. Never again. Too loud! Waitress spoke in whisper and barely understandable with the racket. Out of cake.

We come here often. A great Mexican restaurant. This trip was for a birthday. Staff came out winging with maracas and gigantic sombrero fit the birthday girl to wear. Food is always delicious and service is great. Floor seemed a little slick which is not the normal. read more

Friendly staff. Good food and drinks. Loud as usual, possibly due to acoustics. Ordered an appetizer and our meal. The appetizer came out quickly, but as we were enjoying it, our entre's arrived, within 5 minutes. So here we are with a table full of delicious food. The food brings us back again and again. read more

Dos Reales - Chili Relleno - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

Dos Reales may become one of my favorite places to enjoy an authentic Mexican restaurant in the greater Kansas City area. We enjoyed a great lunch before going out to the Shawnee Mission Lake! At this restaurant, you are served complimentary chips and two salsas: one thick and one cantina style. We also started with some queso dip! For lunch, I ordered the Enchilada & Tamale Combination and my partner ordered a Chicken Chimichanga. We both left happy and full! If you are in the Shawnee area and craving some Mexican food, Dos Reales is the spot to check out! The service was quick and attentive. We were able to sit on the patio. This restaurant has exposed style dining on nice days too! read more

Staff didn't really come by and check on us and it was a little wait between chips and salsa before anyone came and got our order. Food was hot when it came out, flavors were okay. Watch out for the water fountain in the middle of the restaurant that watching several people almost tripped over. read more

Haven't been to your restaurant for a few months. so much has changed . This place has gotten very stingy on side dishes. The rice and refried beans portion are kid sized . When you ask for salsa 16 oz to go they don't tell you that it's not 16oz anymore it's a small maybe 3oz container. used to absolutely love this place will never be back again and I'll make sure to tell people my experience was horrible. i'd rather eat McDonald's and that's saying a lot. I know you have a new manager and his policy is quality over quantity. Can't you have both like it used to? read more

I've been coming here since 2010, as crazy as it sounds this was the first authentic Mexican food I ever had. Over the years the quality of the food and management has changed drastically! I came here for taco Tuesday and after what I experienced I don't think I'll be back no time soon. For starters it took someone just about 15mins to bring us water, then another 15 for salsa and chips. At the point when the server came to the table we gave our order right then and there to avoid waiting another 15 mins to come back, which was crazy because they weren't busy at all. I ordered fish tacos, which are normally amazing! This time around they were meh, they weren't seasoned nor prepared how there usually are. The cheese steak burrito which is another staple of their's was a disaster, the cook just couldn't seem to get it right. Not sure if he was new but it was a no go. I'm all for giving second chances I do recommend coming here, when the food is prepared right the food is actually really really good! read more

Excellent restaurant. Service is fast. Decor is nice. Good family restaurant. We have eaten here any time we are in the mood for Mexican, which is often! Restaurant is clean with lots of TVs for the sports. You get two salsas, a chunky and a blended. Both delicious and fresh. Anything with their shredded chicken is always juicy, well seasoned and delicious. Their margaritas are just fine. I normally just get a house margarita and it does the trick but of course they have the fancy margaritas too. This time I got the burrito bravo. My husband got the taco loco salad. Both were delicious and fresh. We've gotten their fajitas before too. Also delicious and enough food for 2. read more

I attended a class last night, the meal served was amazing, so delicious. Would recommend the chicken enchiladas and the chicken and steak fajitas, it was all great. Thank you! read more

I have been to Dos Reales multiple times for lunch, and have always had a great experience. Talked my wife into going tonight for dinner after a long week. We checked their hours and saw they were open until 10:00 pm. We arrived around 8:30 pm and ordered right away. Got our margaritas right away, spinach dip took 20+minutes. We opted to share a burrito for ease; however, it didn't arrive until after 9:15. We then waited until well after 9:30 to get our checks, even though we had our cards on the table since right after we ordered. Our waitress never checked in and when she finally brought our checks, it was evident we had interrupted her evening. If you don't want to have customers after 8:30, change your hours. Such a disappointing evening. read more

Some of the best el pastor tacos I've had, service is fin, and a solid atmosphere. Plenty of space as well, doesn't feel crowded. I typically don't do reviews but this establishment deserves a much higher score than what they currently have. read more

I came here upon a recommendation from a coworker. I was hesitant about coming due to a prior review on here that had a picture of a roach. I figured that was years ago and truly could have come from anywhere. I came during my lunch hour on a Friday. I initially attempted to order ahead of time and they were clearly having phone issues. I went ahead and call the Overland Park store who had no clue as to why their Shawnee location was having phone issues. She was very uninterested. Anyways the online menu was not very helpful as I was not sure if the tacos were hard or soft. Flour or corn. I drove over and they were not busy. I went to the bar and ordered the tacos and queso. The queso came highly recommended. It's very good and can easily be enjoyed in large quantities. The chips are really good. The portions are generous. The tacos were good. The rice and beans were very delicious. My favorite was the queso and chips. The price was expensive. Especially for lunch. However, since it was a large portion of food, I was able to share it with my husband and bring it home. The queso is $5 and the tacos with rice and beans was $17. The environment was nice. read more

Great restaurant. Food was decent but I really liked the atmosphere and the decorations. There was a cute fountain where you can throw coins in! A bit overpriced but it's a Mexican Restaurant in Shawnee so I wasn't surprised. I got the Ceviche and was a little disappointed due to lack of flavor and lack of shrimp. I was expecting larger shrimp pieces as well as chopped up avocado and cilantro etc... but it was just a mediocre version of that. Our waiter was nice! read more

Never had a bad meal here! I've tried and loved the fajitas, the chili colorado, multiple enchiladas, rellenos, and on and on. My favorite is the good old number 5, which is an enchilada, a taco, rice and beans. The service is always fast and friendly, and they are just wonderful. read more

Dos Reales - Number 5 - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

Food is great. But the last 2 times we've ordered thru Ubereats there have been problems. The 1st time the delivery driver was there for over 30 minutes. Last night, they did send the large cheese dip which we ordered. My daughter will only each the cheese dip and chips, which is why we ordered it in the first place. Very disappointed lately. read more

I had not been back to Dos Reales for probably a year, but I went back today and was very disappointed again. The person who I went to dinner with had a dish that they typically have at other Mexican restaurants, and she said that the sauce was old tasting. My meal was not very flavorful either. The service was OK, the one positive was that the restaurant seemed clean as well as the bathrooms. My husband and I used to frequent this restaurant all the time, but we noticed that the service declined and the food started to become more bland. read more

Dos Reales generously donated beef and chicken fajitas and enchiladas with all the fixings to First Baptist Church in Shawnee on Mon. night for our Reboot Recovery class. All the food was delicious! What an awesome and amazing restaurant to be so gracious and giving to our class!! I really think it some of the best Mexican food I have ever had!!!! read more

Taco Tuesday so tried a new place. Very cool inside and service was very good and she was very nice. Complimentary chips and two salsas. One was chunky and I liked it a lot. The other was more traditional but also very good. I had ground beef hard shell and chicken soft shell tacos. They were very big tacos. Tons of white meat chicken and lost of cheese. Very good tacos and by far one of the best values on Taco Tuesday I've experienced. It seems like many places skimp on Taco Tuesday-they did not. Great food, great service and fun place. read more

Dos Reales - Taco Tuesday - Mexican Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

Food and service are always very good and consistent. Prices are reasonable as well. I strongly recommend.

Ordered food for delivery today using their door dash service. Entrees arrived basically inedible. Everything was just swimming in cheese. Called the restaurant to discuss the situation and the employee said 'you have to call DoorDash'. Contacted DoorDash and was told this type of situation does not qualify for any compensation. Great, not, customer service. We used to be regulars. Need to rethink whether the loyalty is two way street. read more

After being skeptical of an authentic Mexican restaurant in Shawnee, I was pleased both times I have visited. The menu is large and I was hoping for a deep fried taco, however, based on Yelp photos I opted out. I prefer a real deep fried shell and not the store bought shape - if you know what I mean. Instead both my husband and I tried the Burrito Green Chile because we love a burrito spread and this was the closest thing. It was SO good. The flavor and sauce were some of the best green Chile I have tried. Highly recommend. Only negative - they could do with a bit larger portions of rice and more queso in the queso fundido. read more

I am giving a 1 star review for this particular issue. This Dos Reales location is one of our favorite places to eat, and we eat there often. Unfortunately, they have implemented a new policy that does not work for us. When we got the bill, there was a 3.5% fee added to the bill for credit card fee. We pay in cash so this fee is inappropriate in cases such as ours. They should rethink this. read more

NOT TEX-MEX, REAL AUTHENTIC FOOD HERE My wife and I come here ALOT. We travel to Mexico alot and we cant just eat anywhere, so we come here. The staff is always friendly, and is a clean place to visit. AND the drinks are pretty amazing too! read more

Food was fabulous. Service was great and very attentive. The restaurant was not busy at all. Everyone eats at the buffet next door. It's too bad. I'm sure people think the prices are high compared to the buffet. We had guacamole, cheese dip, margaritas, enchiladas, and burritos. Will definitely go back. read more

The service was good and the decor inside is. Nice. The chips were like super market. Not Good at all. I love mexican food and salty food but overall the food was way too salty. The enchilada sauce almost tasted like marinara. Overall there's a lot of Other options read more

The Burrito Bravo and coffee this time of the year is a great combination. The server was also very friendly upon greeting me.

Dos Reales is low key the best Mexican restaurant in the burbs. The staff is amazing and hospitable the bartenders are the best. They are always very polite and their daily margaritas are Fire!!! read more

Still one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the area and have been going here since I was a kid! I always have great service when I am here and our most recent visit was no exception. Our server was fantastic. He was very personable, funny, and did everything perfect. There was no wait and the inside was steady but not too busy for a Taco Tuesday. I've always loved the interior décor here and the working fountain has always been a great touch! The food never disappoints either thankfully. I got something different than by usual and was pretty happy with it (Quesa Birria) but it cannot compete with some of the even more authentic places in town. Overall, this is still a go-to Mexican restaurant for me and I am super glad they have stayed in business all these years. read more

Service was slow and not very friendly. The carne asada tacos were not authentic, only 1 tortilla and they were straight out of the package not even warm. The taco loco salad was not even half filled and when I asked for ranch dressing (twice) was given a package dressing. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

This place is just around the corner from where I work so I thought I would give it a try. I am so glad that I tried this tucked away restaurant. From the outside you would not expect the large dinning area on the inside. Within this hidden gems decor you will find spacious seating among water fountains inside. The menu is not packed full of so many choices that its hard to choose what you want, nor is it a small menu by any means. I think they found that sweet spot of having a great selection with out flooding the menu or filling in a lot of space with photos of the food. Another thing i do like is that they have dollar tacos every Tuesday. Just another great opportunity for friends and family to get together and have great food. I ordered the Tacos De Pescado (fish tacos) and to be honest i was expecting just the generic chopped up breaded fish style taco. Let me just say i was pleasantly surprised when the plate arrived and i saw that it was grilled fish and not fried and battered fish in these three delicious looking large tacos. The fish gets grilled fresh when you order these, so don't expect your food super fast. I can promise it will be worth the wait for this delectable dish. They don not skimp either, these three tacos had me stuffed! I barely even touches the side of beans and rice that came with them. I highly recommend stopping in to try this place if you are in the area. I truly don't think you will be dissatisfied with anything you order. Hope you enjoy read more

I ordered take out around 2:45. I think they gave me the $7 lunch version of the Green Chili Burrito, not the $14 version I paid for. Oh well, I'll hope they do better next time. They have great food, very friendly service too. In my Terminator voice, "I'll be back". read more

We love mexican food and After reading so many good reviews, we knew we had try Dos Realas. Started with the Dos Realas margaritas and they were wonderful. Service was great throughout our visit. DR was clean and bright and had a fun atmosphere. Really loved having the choice of 2 textures of salsa but found both to be very bland but kicked both up by adding some of their green salsa. Tried their espanaca but it too was very bland. I had a pork burito that was very good but a little light on the filling. Also tried a beef taco and was very disappointed. Tasted like taco bell tacos. Overall a little disappointed and probably won't be back. There were three of us and our check was $115 before tip. read more

Best Mexican in Upper Overland Park/Shawnee... I say this with some confidence as I really enjoy Mexican and try to find and eat at all the places I can. Since I live in OP this is the area I can get to easiest. For those of you that want something more authentic... I would send you further afield. But, for delicious food in great quantities visit either of their locations. There is one of of 75 and Antioch and the other (this one) at Quivira and Shawnee Mission Parkway. I have tried almost everything on their menu and can't tell you of anything I wouldn't order again. Of course I have my favourites. And this is one of the times I ordered just a TS Margarita and Queso Fundido... which is really fun to say! Also pretty fun to eat. My other go to is to order the Parilla Suiza with Chorizo (I am probably butchering all the spellings but I am Scottish and EVERYTHING is spelled wrong.) I tend to have it all mixed up so I can eat it like a fajita that has been mixed with queso for dipping. Then eat the whole thing with Tortilla chips. This is a place where I cannot encourage people enough to swing in and give it a try. I do not know how the prices on kid dishes are now... but several years ago this was a once a week place for the foster kids and I. And my wallet loved it! As did our taste buds. Rereading this review... I feel that I should quickly clarify a few points. This is Mexican food made for Mid-westerners. It will not be what most think of as authentic. The kitchen will happily spice it up or down for you on the individual dishes. Thanx for reading and keep on eating! RANT: Authentic... this is a terrible term. Authentic Mexican food is what? By definition it is food made by either someone who is Mexican, or food made using a Mexican method, or food made in Mexico. So, you will see me utilize this word very sparsely in my reviews. I do not believe in authentic as it is so variable. And quite frankly I am not so much of a purist that I don't just eat what I like. Authentic Italian... while delicious... lacks lots of components that continually get Americans to return over and over to Italian restaurants. This holds true for all of the ethnic foods. So if you just like good food then stick with me and I'll tell you all the places I like and why! Through Yelp reviews of course! read more

It's been probably 10 years since we've been here but happened to be in the area tonight and stopped by for Taco Tuesday. We will be adding this to one of our weekly stops since we live so close. Service is great and we had drinks within in minutes after walking through the door. The Carne Asada Taco's are incredible so vibrant with flavor and we got 6 of them for around $2.00 each. I was so busy eating that I forgot to take a picture of these delicious tacos when served but maybe you can when you visit Dos Reales in Shawnee KS next Tuesday. read more

Food is really great! Service was amazing! My favorite is the Shrimp Quesadilla and the house made habanero salsa.

My wife and I love this place. It's very good food and timely service. The prices are a bit high, but so is everything else in this area at this time. If you're looking for good Mexican food, this is your place. Enjoy! read more

We eat here at least once a month. The food and service are always great and they treat you like family! Highly recommend!!!!
