They gave me spicy, mild, and queso ! They were all spot on. The food is set at a really good price. I ordered the fajita chicken chimichaunga with refried beans and rice. My chimichaunga was really good, it got soggy after awhile. Usually that doesn't happen to me. Next time I will get the shredded chicken instead. The taste was flavorful and it was cooked well. This restaurant has a very family friendly atmosphere that I loved. This will be my new spot when I'm craving Mexican food!

Dos Salsas has become one of our go-to Tex-Mex spots because they're incredibly consistent. Every…read morevisit has been solid, and one thing I really appreciate is that they haven't fallen victim to shrinkflation. The portions are huge, and we almost always have enough leftovers for lunch the next day. You can see by the photos we've tried just about everything aside from the American food on the menu, and it's been consistently good. The only dishes we wouldn't order again are the ceviche, and I do wish their house salsa had more heat. If you like spicy salsa, you may find it a little mild. Overall, Dos Salsas is one of the better Tex-Mex restaurants in the area. I'd take it over Chuy's any day. Great portions, dependable food, and excellent value keep us coming back.

The seasoning was on point and adding the red salsa to it gave it an amazing kick. Love it!

The staff was super nice and attentive, and the prices were reasonable. Unfortunately, the food and drinks were just really basic. The chips were okay, the guacamole was bland, and the margaritas were nothing special. For a Mexican restaurant, everything just felt a little boring and seemed more like bulk-purchased ingredients than something made fresh or unique. I really wanted to like this place, especially because the staff was great, but based on what we had, it was just too basic for us to come back.

My wife and I were actually headed to another restaurant, but decided to stop in at Aurora's for…read moresome groceries. I mentioned to my wife that these kinds of places often have kitchens and boy we were in luck. The man in charge, Albert, descended on us and started simultaneously asking what we wanted to order AND praising the virtues of his tamales, among other things. But he had me at "Birria". After being introduced to birria tacos by my lifelong friend, Joel, I have been a huge fan ever since. So we called an audible and decided to get an order for takeout (Albert could convince you to buy anything, I think). We got two orders of Corn QuesaBirria Tacos and the Jalapeño Popper Specialty Taco. Both were great and I especially liked the Birria Tacos, even eating my wife's portion... "You going to eat that?" Outside of the corner kitchen, convenience store is great, with all of the different varieties of foods, beers and other items that you would expect at Mexican convenience store.

The food is good but I, personally, don't think I can eat here again. The tacos are greasy and I think whatever they use to cook gives me really bad gas (bloating).

I went here with a large group (10) on Sunday last weekend. We went during Happy Hour (3-6p daily)…read morewhen their margaritas/beer/wine and appetizers were all $2 off. This is a very scenic and modern upscale restaurant near the heart of downtown Georgetown. The interior is nicely appointed and understatedly elegant. The inside and outside restaurant and bar areas are expansive but easily outstrip the provided parking. There is also street parking nearby, but don't be surprised if you wind up walking from nearby public lots or garages. I can easily see this place being packed. We had a reservation and were promptly seated and offered water service. As with most Mexican restaurants, there's an expansive menu, so we ordered drinks while we perused the menu. I found the Encantada margarita to be quite tasty, but it was a bit expensive. At $11 for a single serving with house liquors, closer to what we've come to expect locally for a Mexican martini (theirs was $18 with house, $24 with call). That's a bit over-the-top IMHO. We were offered complimentary chips and salsa; I remember the chips to be excellent, and the red salsa just right for my taste, but others remarked that it was too spicy. Our waitress (Paulina) joked that the only thing less spicy was their ketchup. They also have a green salsa, which is even spicier, but that we all skipped. The food menu has a lot of chef-inspired offerings. I tried the Grilled Chicken Tacos (Grilled Chicken, Cilantro, Onion, Fresco Cheese) at $16. I had one on flour and one on corn to taste the difference in tortillas with the same ingredients, along with a side bowl of black beans. I found them flavorful but also on the small side for the price. Additional tacos are $5 each. No rice was offered. This was one of their least expensive plates. We had a great time and our drink and food service was nothing less than excellent, but I couldn't help but come away feeling that, for a check that tabbed in just under $100 (with tip) we should have had a fuller tummy. Would we come back? Maybe. We'll have to explore their other options and perhaps graze more off the appetizer menu; however, less than $5 separate most of their appetizers from their plate dinners. This is a place to go for a culinary and visual experience, not an everyday meal.

Food was served very quickly & it was very fresh and had good flavor. In my opinion, the birria Tacos were not served to do the delicious meat any justice. It was more like plopped wet on the tortillas with the juice. They are not doing the meat justice by serving it this way instead of doing it with the birria & cheese seared into the tortilla then adding cilantro and onions like I've seen at every other place. It makes it taste so much better when it's not wet, but cooked into the taco and you're able to dip it into the consommé. It was a bit overpriced in my opinion. $56 for what you see in the pictures.

To Chef Felipe Armenta,…read more Please review your Georgetown Location. I was Up Charged a little bit under $4 by this location today. You have several signs stating a breakfast taco deal at $5.99 for (3). Today 5/9/26 @ 9:40am: I grabbed an order of Cactus and an order of chorizo. Based on your menu there is not an additional charge for this. The Total (including Tax @ 8.25%) is just under $13. We are in a time where disingenuous acts by your veteran employees is scrutinized past just an initial instance. Although I did speak to a manager by phone, I still find it necessary to bring this to the Company attention instead of sweeping under the rug by phone call. If this wasn't a recurring complaint (read your Yelp Reviews) about Up Charges, I would let it be. But this is not the case, it's happened more than a onetime mistake. How this affects the rest of the Shifts Employees is a tip will not be given, your employee already charged that amount. I have worked in service before and Tips are what have kept me and plenty other employees working for a company in our past. It's also a help for your business as your turnover will decrease, morale will increase, and so will customer relationships. Dishonesty like this though hurts this Location 3-fold and can be crippling. I agree with the majority, the breakfast tacos here are good especially at the price posted. But this hurts you today for Me and anyone reading this that wants to try out a breakfast taco spot Somewhere New. This review will potentially deter %5+ of New Customer acquisition which if you're a seasoned business person this looks small in the beginnings but very important to company growth. I suppose I say, today hurt your growth here. By the looks of it employees don't care, and it starts with the tip jar that can't keep them satisfied.. because they up charge. Good Luck
