Just wasn't too good all around. Probably the worst mexican restaurant I've been to.

Good atmosphere and good service, but food was nothing special, it was lacking in flavor.

**This review is from a visit on March 10th** When New Orleans meets Atlanta-Mex. Perfect for me! A lunch time craving for mexican with a flare I encountered Dos Bocas. Yes, two mouths - one for Cajun and one for Mexican. If only I had come here for happy hour! Located in a busy downtown area we were able to be seated immediately. Side note: Off to the bathroom? You'll have to exit the restaurant and visit the Hilton (connected). For starters, their gumbo soup. A tad spicy but nothing my taste buds couldn't handle, very rich and hearty nicely made. For lunch: Chicken Toluca. A chicken breast smothered in cheese along with tasty beans and rice. Trust me, this was so good I ate them all both! Time for a nap! Good place. read more

We came here and it was relatively empty. We were told it was a wait but that we could go upstairs to the bar. We went and were told to grab a table. Then the manager who told us to go upstairs came and said we couldn't be seated because there was a wait. Mind you we were already seated. The manager was rude and unaccommodating. They had a breakdown in communication as a business and they were unprofessional. I won't be coming back. read more

We were in town for the Queen concert and staying at the Hilton Garden Inn. We were pressed for time, so decided to to have dinner in the hotel at the Dos Bocas Mexican restaurant. We had a fantastic dining experience. The restaurant was spacious and clean. The fresh chips and salsa were a delightful start, and the guacamole and queso were both incredibly delicious. The friendly service added to the overall enjoyment, and their margaritas were the perfect complement to the meal. I highly recommend this place read more

We were staying in downtown Atlanta for business looking for a good places to eat. This restaurant presents well online and had great reviews, but when we arrived the entire downstairs was closed making it look like the business was entirely closed. Upon further inspection we were told that the upstairs was open, but there was no signage indicating that. We went upstairs and the place was empty. Staff was hanging around and joking not seeming to give a crap that they were customers or not. Really poor representation for this business read more

One word... DISGUSTING! Ordered Tacos and Queso to go for the very first and absolute LAST time on a whim. The queso is melted Velveeta cheese and the ground beef for the tacos taste like a mix for chili cheese dogs just HORRIBLE. The young lady at the hostess stand was nice however, they didn't have change in the register so we had to wait. The manager and cooks did not seem to really take pride in the food nor the customers. Dine at your own RISK! read more

The drinks are amazing! Our server was great and recommended her favorites. The salsa had similar taste and consistency to ketchup and the cheese sauce wasn't much better, glad we skipped the meal. read more

I was looking forward to a good Tex Mex meal while my daughter attended the 2021 CFA Bowl. Go Pitt! However, to my surprise at 7:30 pm they were only doing carry out and had run out of chips. That's not the best part though. I ordered a quesadilla to take back to the room thinking it would be a fairly safe bet to eat in the room. Unfortunately, it was a very messy quesadilla that required plastic ware to eat and of course none were included. Maybe I hit them on an off night, but logically with a bowl game in town they should have been far better prepared. There are plenty of other restaurants around the Hilton Garden Inn. I would suggest trying one of those for a better experience. read more

Thank goodness the IU game was on... it gave us something to do while we waited an hour for our food!! I believe that the waiter actually forgot us. So, putting our order in was a good 20 mins. Then, we waited another 45 mins to get our food. Management did apologize and the waiter brought me a free drink. The food was good. But, we weren't hungry, nu the time it came... because we had been through 3 baskets of chips. Not a place that I care to visit again... read more

I come to atl a fee times a year and this place is always a safe bet for me. I always make it a point to come here and get a queso and chicken fajita. Staff is super friendly and the free chips and salsa are delicious. read more

This place is mid, low service, and pricy for minimal flavor food. I do not recommend anyone come here. Although it did have a cool vibe.

The location of this restaurant was very convenient. It's attached to the Hilton Garden Inn. The atmosphere was very laid back. Overall the staff was very friendly but it took a while to be served our drinks. I ordered the Smothered Burrito plate. Overall the rice was pretty good, a tad bland but decent. I had Coke so it was as usual. My burrito was different. The sauce on top of the Burrito was giving Italian Marinara rather than Mexican. That was a bit off-putting. The filling was well-seasoned and tasted great. The salsa and chips did not disappoint. So I'm not sure what the deal was but I wouldn't highly recommend it. If your looking for just anything to eat go for it. read more

A great meal, and the bar staff really delivered. Great food, great drinks, very happy we dined here.

This place was the one of the worst food of our trip, with Waffle House being the worst. The hotel it's connected to was also trash service for the amount of money paid to stay there. Will never return to either. Called in a big Togo order for a bride and her bridal party. Said around 30 min. I waited at least 50 to make sure it would be ready. It wasn't. No one really acknowledges me for around 8 minutes and once I finally got a spot at the bar, the order still wasn't ready for another 20 minutes. We were on a time crunch, so this was completely unacceptable. I asked for sour cream. It wasn't in the bag. I will say the only reason it isn't one Star is the manager and crew member walked up to my room with me to carry the food. That was nice. However the quality of the food was awful. The rice was dry, the enchiladas were tough. The po boy had way too much bread and was hard to eat. The girl ended up throwing it out. Ceaser salad was mushy. I would never come back here. They also gave us 4 dishes we didn't order, which was cool I guess, if the food had been edible. Avoid this place at all costs. read more

I had a photo shoot in Centennial Park and came here with my photographer afterward to grab food and pick out my preferred shots. I was starving because I'd been fasting since the night before and it was going on 20 hours. I remembered this restaurant when it was under construction, so I was interested to try it out. We walked in and were greeted and sat. Our server came over with chips and salsa, then brought us water while we looked at the menu. The menu was very intriguing...Cajun and Tex-Mex?? Hmm...okay lol. I'm not a big salsa fan, but this salsa was really good. The chips were as well. I wound up ordering the enchilada verde which comes with rice and charro beans. My food came out rather quickly and I began to eat. The enchiladas were good, but with all the toppings, there was a lot going on and all the extra stuff wound up getting in the way. I didn't like the charro beans at all, and the rice was subpar. I wasn't too fond of what I ordered, but am willing to try something from the Cajun side of the menu. Our server mentioned this place is a tequila bar and has many different types of tequila, so I'd like to come back and try some of their cocktails. I'm not rushing back, but if I'm in the area, I'd give this place another shot. read more

Dos Bocas - Enchilada verde (comes with 3 enchiladas; I was starving, so I'd already eaten one before taking a pic), rice, and charro beans - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

For tourists, welcome to Atlanta, we are a great food town. Don't eat here. Why: Difficult to find the entrance, two levels unclearly marked. Lousy, indifferent service - AT LUNCHTIME. The waiter seemed very new and poorly trained. At least 30 minutes to order drinks and food, and then 45 minutes to get the drinks and food. The food was extremely bland - and the "charros beans" were more like canned. The rice wasn't even thinking about Mexico. Once we finally got our margaritas, they were very good, but we were never asked if we wanted another, or anything else. read more

We were starving and we were excited to see a Mexican spot. We didn't want to go to any chain restaurants. Atmosphere:. It was a pretty cool looking spot. It appeared clean. Service: we had Troy. He's probably the reason why we gave this place three stars. He was the best part of our visit. He was very attentive and friendly. Food:. I would have gave it two Stars. I don't want to say I'm a Mexican food snob but I do have some standards. Troy immediately gave us chips and salsa. It's not unheard of to have cold salsa but I just prefer mine room temperature. My friend ordered queso and it was just okay. Despite looking at the menu we decided to order fajitas. They were very expensive. I had the combo that consisted of chicken, steak, shrimp, rice, beans and the fixings. ,Over,$30. I thought the food was very bland. The only thing I like was the shrimp. I really wanted to love my meal but it's just wasn't there. We still decided to take our leftovers to the hotel. We were able to season it to our liking. Our bill was about $92 and we didn't order any drinks. ,No bueno. read more

After a long day in the Atlanta heat, we needed food and refreshments. We had chicken quesadillas and margaritas. The cocktails and food were fresh, flavorful and fast. Our server was attentive without being overbearing. Only 4 stars because the elevator was out of order. Will definitely be going again! read more

While I think the concept and idea is great, there is a lot that can be improved. To Start the chips and salsa are good. However, if you are going to charge $10 for Guacamole it should be fresh and made table side. I am not sure why the Guacamole I am sharing with my son is Ice Cold. As for the Queso, $8 for Velveeta ($4.98 at Walmart) and a can of Rotel ($.98 at Walmart) is obviously something anyone can do at home. The entrees were decent. The taco with beef picadillo did not have a lot of flavor, the Hamburgeusa was well dressed, but the beef patty was also kind pf plain. The nachos were plentiful, but again nothing to rave about. Overall, the experience was fair, but very underwhelming. read more

Nice casual atmosphere and very convenient to the Hilton. My son really enjoyed the complimentary chips. The service was amazing. Jo was so sweet and really provided great service. The manager Salvador made sure everything was right with our meal. I would recommend stopping in! read more

Good chips and salsa, but everything else sucked... Shrimp po'boy had way too many pickles and the sauce made it worse. Shrimp tacos were bland and the rice was dry. Told our waiter that and he says I'm sorry and doesn't do anything about it. No birthday specials except for extra bland food all for $41 before tip. Did have one beer which was recommended by the waiter - nothing special about it other than being from Stats. Too bad it's just a block away from me... read more

Great food but very crowded and not open past 9pm on the weekends. When you have events in every venue happening downtown you need to stay open later. read more

The restaurant was confused. It didn't know if it wanted to be Tex-mex or Cajun. We had a party of six and individuals went towards both cuisines. They were both mediocre at best. If you want good food, I'd suggest going elsewhere. read more

They closed the kitchen an hour early and we were greeted very rudely. Take your money somewhere else, customer service doesn't exist here.

The service was far from being good. Our server was slow and by the time he brought our food it was temperate, not hot. The food was okay and the following day it cause me to be in the bathroom 4 times. I'm not saying it was food poisoning but it did not sit well with me. As far as the atmosphere, the music was too loud for casual conversation with my family. read more

Warm service. Definitely a Tex-mex place, didn't really get Cajun at all. Margs were great. Yummy salsa and chips. Very generous portion of enchiladas. Great music! read more

The service was soooo slow, but I understand because they were short staffed. I got the shrimp poboy, and being from New Orleans, this was a great taste of home. It was an interesting combination of a menu to see both cajun and mexican food, but I guess that's the point of their name! If you're in the area, I recommend this place. read more

Let me start by saying that our server Jaylene was awesome. The food was really good and came out fast. We ordered the chicken tacos, the grilled shrimp tacos, and the beef tacos. All came with beans and rice and tasted great. Tortilla chips were good and tasted fresh. read more

Fast friendly service, food was good, came out fresh and hot. Good location if you're staying at the Hampton

Food was lack luster and quite pricy for portion sizes. Service during slow time was very much lacking. Drink order was not put in until our food had arrived. It seemed like we were almost bothering them by eating there. They also included gratuity on a party of 5. read more

So I called for a reservation for 15 gor us out of towner's! Walked in and I immediately new something was wrong. Sure enough, they mentioned that a reservation could not be set because they were open table. Asked for the supervisor and he apologized yet I left my number to call prior if there was an issue. Take this review as a caution if you try to reserve. read more

Two stars for the wait staff and the bartender. In order for this place to thrive they may need to look for new management. Went here on 5/14 and the server was so pleasant and her recommendation was spot on with the lemon chicken. We can't back for lunch on 5/15. We ordered two Cobb salads. It took over 30 minutes so the bartender took one of the salads off for our wait. The manager came over and put it back on saying waiting over 30 minutes should be expected. For salads with no one in your restaurant?! No sir it should not be expected and the fact that you reverse something that someone did looks really horrible and showed you did not care about the service or our time. The attitude of the management took away from appeal of the food. Don't waste your money at a place that doesn't care about read more

Our server was the absolute nicest! Super helpful! They do not have a lot of vegetarian options, but the charro with rice and the monterey bowl were very good for vegetarians! The chile con queso was also soooo delicious! The chips and salsa are so awesome too! Love this place! read more

Dos Bocas - singular shrimp - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This place came highly recommended by the hotel staff. We decided to give it a try. We are foodies and love trying new restaurants. That being said, this restaurant missed several marks. We ordered the beef tacos. I have had food from Taco Bell that tasted better. I'm giving two stars because I think 1 star is harsh. But honestly, I cannot cook AT ALL and I could've made better tacos. We ate it because we were absolutely starving, but every bite tasted like regret with hints disappointment and betrayal. We did not order alcoholic beverages but maybe we should have. I don't even drink, but I seriously contemplated knocking back a couple of shots of whatever just to numb my emotions. When the server says to "get the beef tacos just so you'll know you're really eating beef." I know, I KNOW, we should have left then but I went with the big back angel on my shoulder and decided to stay. This is the Temu of Tex-mex food. read more

Service was great. We sat at the bar and were greeted right away. Our food came out quickly and we even got a lesson on the differences in the tequila they served read more

Bartender was very nice, waitress ignored us. We asked for chips and she never brought it and completely ignored us while she took everyone else around us. Had to flag her down to order more, and that was after 20 mins of waiting for our chips we never got. Long wait, food is simply okay. Just skip this place and go somewhere else! read more
