We ate dinner here twice while staying in Dale, Indiana. We picked it because it was the only restaurant within 20 miles that had decent Yelp reviews. Overall, it was a pretty average Mexican restaurant. The Margaritas were average, service was average, and prices were average. I doubt that I'll eat here again, but it seemed real popular with the locals. read more

Great! We found this place when looking for somewhere to eat one night in Santa clause. Great Mexican food and great service.

Yes the person was cordes listen well and Restaurant clean no sweeping when I am eating Food arrangement looks good l would go back again

I started by ordering a burrito, like I usually do at a Mexican restaurant. But because I'm in Indiana, I always need to explain to the server that I want a burrito with no sauce on it, because for some reason, Mexican restaurants in Indiana put sauce on their burritos. I have to do the whole thing where I hold up an imaginary burrito in my hands and take a bite. Like, look: This is me holding a cylindrical food item called a burrito. Notice the lack of sauce and the fact that I'm able to pick it up with my bare hands? That's what I want. A burrito that I can pick up and eat. (Which makes one wonder: How, then, are burritos different from enchiladas, in the minds of these restaurant owners? If you put sauce on a tortilla filled with meat and other ingredients, aren't you creating an enchilada?) The lady who was my server waved her hand and goes, "Yeah, yeah," indicating to me that she knew what a burrito was, and that I didn't have to explain any further. All right. Can you guess what happens next? Yes: She brings out a "burrito" with some sort of red sauce on it! Yes, all is right in Indiana, folks, don't worry: A burrito was indeed served with sauce on it, and the status quo was preserved. I got the burrito for my children, who promptly questioned why there was red stuff on it and told me they weren't going to eat it. So I performed some mom magic and scraped most of it off and turned it into as real of a burrito as I could. As for me, I got the Mexican chicken tacos, which came with cilantro and onion. They looked good, but they had that unctuous taste of butter. Was the chicken cooked in butter? That would have been an unusual choice for a Mexican restaurant. The chips and salsa were complimentary, though. The chips were pretty good. read more

For a small business, they're pretty good in handling a huge number of customers. There were 21 of us then a few group of families came. The place was full (approx 60 seated). Wifey got the Veggitarian dinner #4 (one bean burrito, one quesadilla, one chalupa. ), it was very filling, big serving, somewhat comparable to other authentic Mexican place. I got the Steak Jalisco and man, it has shrimp, a T bone steak covered with cheese, combined with the underlying sauce, it was a delightful meal. All of our friends enjoyed their respective orders and were glad we all dined here. A very good gem in a small town. A very good place to dine after a long, fun day at Holiday World. read more

Excellent salsa. Small town restaurant feel. Busy location. I think there were a lot of Holiday World guests who make, made this a must stop. Unfortunately, the staff were extremely busy so the wait to order was a bit long but definitely well worth the wait. Kids and I were in no hurry so it really wasn't a problem. I had the chicken on the beach, chicken, rice and cheese - yummy! My son had a ground beef taco and my daughter had rice, beans and a enchilada - she really like hers as she finished her entire plate, which doesn't happen often. Definitely a stop you should make read more

First off the customer service wasn't good at all. Waiter didn't check on us once after getting our order, not even to refill our drinks, or asked if we needed anything. the beans were like water to be honest, the beef in the enchiladas and burritos had barely any meat in them and had little to no flavor. The side salad was shredded lettuce with minimal tomatoes, and was very small. We had to ask for the bill multiple times. Would not recommend. read more

This little Mexican restaurant has amazing Mexican food and very friendly and prompt servers as well! I would definitely return, it's one of the better Mexican places I had been to in a while. Literally in the middle of nowhere. read more

The place smelled like a moist walled basement. The staff seemed cheerless although I was not expecting that from a country restaurant anyway. There were no paper towels in the restroom So over all customer service was poor. About food. We ordered shrimp with rice and beans 1. The beans were spoiled by adding unnecessary junk in it. 2. Rice were not fresh. Over all food was ok. read more

Still a fan but do NOT order the "chiles relleno"! I was SO SO disappointed!! Chile rellenos are traditionally poblano peppers stuffed with jack cheese, dipped in egg batter and deep fried with enchilada sauce over the top. NOT what I got! After waiting for a long time because they forgot to get it out of the oven I got... some sort of meat and cheese concoction!! No really! It was ground beef mixed with melted cheese - kind of reminded me of some type of dip - with cheese broiled on the top in a single serving dish. It took about 1 second for me to dig through it to find there was not a chile to be seen!! Actually my husband pointed out to me what looked like 1 chopped pepper in the mix, but that was all folks!!! I'm not sure where this type of chiles relleno came from but it's no chiles relleno!! read more

Very good food large portions n quality Fast service waitress very attentive and care about the customers read more

Jimador - Mexican Near Me - Dale, Indiana

Best Non-Franchise Place to Eat in Dale, IN. We had a bad run-in with the lousy Chinese buffet in Dale, and we were thinking of avoiding anything to eat in Dale unless it was a franchise. We did not want Wendy's or Denny's so we went into town to eat subway. When we got there, it was an hour and a half before closing and they had scraps for bread so we go "Lets eat mexican" We went to Los DOS Charros and it was fantastic!!! Hot food, fast friendly service. The waiter knew exactly what we wanted when we described what we wanted, and pointed it out on the menu. Even though it was a bit later at night, people were coming in still into this restaurant in a sleepy little town like dale. When we come back to town for summer, we will eat here again. PLUS 1 For Holiday Wolder-ers read more

Great food! Great prices! Friendly and attentive wait-staff. Everything I've had has been top notch. Very surprising in a little town like Dale. Skip the franchises. read more

They have margaritas and beer and that's just what I needed after a long day at Holiday World with the kiddos. The food was just what you would expect. The salsa had a little spiciness to it, which I like. read more

We stopped here on our way home from a work trip. Too early to grab lunch in Louisville so decided to stop here and glad we did. Lunch wasn't too busy and service was fast and friendly. Salsa and chips were tasty. I got the lunch chimichanga with beans for $5.99! I accidentally received rice, but the waitress was really nice and offered to bring beans. It was the perfect amount of food for lunch. read more

Jimador - Chicken chimichanga - Mexican Near Me - Dale, Indiana

Pretty good Mexican food. Chimichanga and rice was great. Highly recommend putting cheese sauce on whatever you order.

We stopped in after visiting Holiday World, before heading home. They were very friendly, fast with everything, the food was very good, and I will come back the next time we are in the area or even passing through. We were going to be driving and weren't able to partake in any adult beverages, but the ones I saw other people order, looked really good. If you're in the area, stop in and get some really good food. read more

Worth the short drive off the interstate! Great Mexican food! Wonderful customer service and our food arrived in a short time. Clean, nice restaurant. MUCH better than the other chain restaurants in the area. read more

Found this restaurant on yelp as we were visiting Holiday World. We were positively surprised. Outstanding and quick service. Ordered the tacos, the kids loved it and they want to come back. Definitely a go-to at our next visit to Santa Claus read more

We stopped here while on vacation from Texas. This was one of the best experiences I've had at a Mexican restaurant. Their "chicken on the beach" dish was delicious! I am so very picky, but I loved my whole meal. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his big burrito. The salsa was also very good, though not spicy, and it was even much better than at many Mexican restaurants in Texas. We will definitely stop here if we ever go back through Dale! read more

We always come here when camping at holiday world. The food is your average Mexican food. The service is good. Our biggest complaint is the wait time for food. 45 minutes for Mexican food is way too long. read more

Low key atmosphere, great food! It was definitely worth the drive (only 10 min) from Holiday World. We recommend the chile verde, beef burrito topped with cheese dip and picante sauce and the gold margarita! We walked away fat and happy! Ready for another fun filled day at Holiday World! read more

We were exhausted from a day at Holiday World and just wanted a good meal. We found this restaurant on Yelp and after reading some of the other reviews chose to try it out. We probably have a higher standard of food than most and WE LOVED IT! The staff was very friendly and fun and the food outstanding! We highly recommend to anyone in the area! read more

Food was BEYOND amazing and service was really good especially if you're in town for the Holiday World. The only restaurant in town, and best food compared to any place else in town. My family came two days in a row! The fajita's are amazing and the guacamole and not to mention the jumbo margaritas are great!! read more

Excellent food at a great price. I had the beef flautas and they were delicious. The chips and salsa are amazing. Great service too.

The food is ok. But the girl who answers the phone and takes the order is extremely rude every time. I feel like she's mad at me for ordering and always tells me I can't get the things I want to order I understand there is an extra charge and that's ok but she still tells me they can't do that. ? I mean How hard is it to substitute beans. Seriously. And she tells me it's Gona be really Long wait times. And it never is. I called. She said " Uhm well it's Gona be over 30 mins soo" like she's trying to convince me not to Order. She seriously does this every time. I hate ordering there. I live in a tiny town so there aren't many option uness I wanna drive to the next Town. Honestly that's what I've been doing lately. She's so rude that I drive to the huntingburg location to order. They are awesome and friendly there. I just really wish she would be pleasant on the phone. Is that too much to ask ? read more

Granted, Los Dos Charros is a hole-in-the-wall in the middle-of-nowhere, the food was absolutely incredible! We were in town visiting Holiday World, and ended up eating dinner here all three nights of our stay. The next time we visit, we will be sure to include Los Dos Charros yet again. read more

Food was very good. We ate here while camping near by. We took a chance, despite the fact that it doesn't like much from the outside. Pretty plain on the inside. Food and service both exceeded our expectations. We return next time we are in the area. read more

My husband and I really enjoyed the food here. We both had chicken burritos and they were very good. The beans and rice were also wonderful. Many times rice is plain at Mexican restaurants. I wood really recommend this restaurant. read more

We ordered the meal for two with burrito, chips and queso and chill relno. They brought us flour tortilla with ground beef and salsa with cheese on top, and a corn tortilla with ground beef, cooked salsa and cheese on top. No chille....the ground beef was flavorless. All in all the only okay part of the meal was the grilled chicken they gave my daughter, and the table salsa with warmed chips. I will always remember this place, because of its complete lack of anything remotely mexican. read more

I would drive from Bloomington to eat here. Really great and nice people. Get in there and get your Mexican on.

so good. i don't think there's anything you could order that could be bad, and there's a good amount of vegetarian options which i appreciate. would highly recommend esp after a day at holiday world. read more

Good tasting authentic Mexican food. Friendly service. Clean. Fair prices. A great option that is pretty close to Holiday World and beats any of the fast food options around there. read more

While traveling we used Yelp to find a place for lunch. There weren't many choices in Dale, Indiana so we chose Mexican and were pleasantly surprised. The food was hot and fresh and not overly spicy. As someone else mentioned, the chiles relenos were a surprise, not a stuffed poblano but rather a hot ground beef and cheese dish, but very good. I used it as a dip with the fresh warm chips. Tacos were great. Service was fast. I'd go back if in the area. read more
