The waitress was also very good, Nice atmosphere, candles made a good ambiance. ”

the margaritas and guacomole are wonderful, and are a real draw to this place, also nice ambiance, but all the entrees ive tried, the chicken, the tacos, the fish, were all just ok to good. ”

The food was really bad and EXPENSIVE! ”

Although the restaurant was full, she took the time to answer our questions about their extensive teqila list, never rushed us, and at the end of the meal took the time to talk about some of the other BR Guest restaurants that my friends from out of town ”

The food was no better than a run-of-the-mill Burritoville, the portions are tiny, and the prices are abominable (and i spend a great deal on food) ”
- “
The food is amazing! ”
- “
the margaritas and guacomole are wonderful, and are a real draw to this place, also nice ambiance, but all the entrees ive tried, the chicken, the tacos, the fish, were all just ok to good. ”

They Rip You Off -- and I don't just mean with the mediocre food ”
- “
with the good food and excellent drink menu, you might need it. ”
- “
take that back; order some guac, grab a margarita or two, and then go elsewhere for some real food. ”
- “
The food was great, the guac is not to be believed simply perfect and the chips are standard good fare. ”
- “
Make sure to share an order with at least one person, otherwise you WILL consume the entire thing; and you should save room for the awesome entrees, especially the grilled fish selections -- yum! ”

If you feel that the blatantly careless service and disgergard for cleanliness standards would detract from your enjoyment of the fabulous food, avoid this place. ”

The food was great. ”

the weekend brunch is quite amazing as well - eggs with mexican food, such an interesting combination and made so well! ”

For a great Mexican food experience, try El Bocadito in the Lower East Side - it's cheap and the food is incredible (and authentic) -- also, the service is great there. ”
- “
couldn't believe how much our bill ended up being with such mediocre food! ”
- “
Again, our waitress came by to assert that she had HEARD me order the steak tacos (I haven't eaten red meat or poultry for 17 years). ”

We highly recommend the prickly pear margarita and the chicken quesadillas (LOTS of marinated chicken). ”
- “
The food overall was good, but salty and a bit greasy. ”
- “
This place was great, we had appetizers & main dishes. ”

The cactus margaritas are very good, as is the guacamole, but for people who enjoy good mexican food, there are much better places in NYC. ”

And the margaritas were tasty as well. ”

The food tasted fresh, and the server gave us wonderful suggestions. ”

dependable stand-by, this place offers good, clean, fresh food, but is hardly authentic. ”

Our food was cold (not to mention mediocre at best), and the complimentary drinks that are part of the meal were added to our check along with the appeziter that we never got. ”

But our last Dos Caminos meal started off with dirty water glasses and plates (guac & salsa bits) followed by a dirty cocktail glass - salsa mimosa anyone? ”

The food is good, but $25 for some shrimp and rice, and another $22 for pork and some tortillas is ridiculous. ”
- “
The portions were good, and the chopped salad with roasted corn, squash blossoms quesadilla, and sea bass were all heavenly. ”
- “
love Mexican food. ”
- “
However, the spicy guacamole made right at your table, prickly pear margarita, extensive tequila list, and mariscos tacos are all excellent options! ”
- “
Rest of my parties dishes were equally bad if not worse. ”
- “
The chips and salsa are great- I'm not a guac fan but those who sprung for it enjoyed. ”

Both times the food was amazing and margaritas strong! ”

The food is terrible. ”

don't mind spending a lot of money if the food is amazing but my group was very disappointed. ”

The guac of course is amazing and they REALLY dont kid around about their spicy level guac. ”

Chicken Enchilladas was awesome, chicken was well cooked. ”

My date got the shrimp quesadilla that would have been decent they left off that awful sauce and if the shrimp wasn't so tough. ”

Great ambiance, great staff, great location, great presentation and selection and most of all, everything tasted wonderful! ”

The waiter was very helpful and attentive. ”

Once seated, service was slow. ”

Despite the awesome waiter my dining experience was a WASTE OF TIME and $. ”

the bartenders were friendly. ”

Server was excellent but was bogged down with a large party with a demanding hostess, people kept arriving late, later and still arriving while others were eating. ”

Our waitress was nice, but nowhere to be found. ”
- “
The menu has changed, the crowd seems better, and the service is pretty good. ”
- “
Wandered in around 5pm on a Saturday night with no reservation, the hostess was very friendly and gave us a table but informed us that we had to be gone by 7pm because they were booked solid. ”
