Stopped in after an event for drinks and a bite -- great call. Even with the place buzzing, we snagged two seats at the bar without a wait. My friend and I both went with the margarita cocktail with a sugar rim and it did not disappoint. For food, I ordered the beef empanadas (three count) and they were juicy and satisfying. The dipping sauce was simple but it worked. My friend got the pollo ranchero and loved it -- we both left with leftovers, which says a lot. Oh, and the bathrooms were clean with multiple stalls. Always a win. Solid spot for a post-event wind down. Would definitely return. read more

Native Texan here, so yes--I'm biased when it comes to Mexican food. Unfortunately, this place was mediocre at best and overpriced for what you get. I ordered the carne asada and was genuinely excited, but it was a letdown from the start. They never asked how I wanted the steak cooked, which is a huge mistake. Then they covered the steak in cheese--why? That completely overpowered everything. I couldn't even taste the chimichurri. A suggestion: grill the steak properly and serve it simply. If you need cast iron, use a skillet--not a cast iron bowl. Don't drown it in cheese, and please don't cut my steak for me. I'm a grown adult and can handle that myself. On the positive side, the service was on point--our waitress was amazing. The inside was clean and had a kind‑of Mexican vibe going on. read more

Dos Caminos - Carne Asada. Blah! - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Went yesterday to specifically have an espresso martini. My husband and I ordered nachos, Chicharrón and two espresso martinis. They were out of Chicharrón - which the waitress had for warned us about that they may be out of them, but they're also out of espresso. We canceled the $22 nachos and walked out. Was a nice looking place and it was packed. The only thing we had was chips and salsa for the table and I assume it would've been good food, but I was very annoyed that they were out of the two things that we specifically ordered. Because of that we wouldn't go back. read more

They lie about their hours. It says that they close at 9 PM. I got there at 8:35 PM and they told me that they close the kitchen at 8 PM. It would be nice if they were honest about it on their page. And to make things worse, I called at 8 o'clock and they did not pick up their phone. read more

I loved the food here and sitting on the patio was so nice! Service was great, too. Felt taken care of but also free to take our time. I highly recommend starting with the queso with chorizo - delicious and a very generous portion. I also loved the birria tacos. Throw a margarita into the mix and it's pretty much a perfect meal! read more

The FINAL regular season pre-game lunch for Seahawks @ Panthers Sun 12/28/25 and this was the consensus location. I had a previous visit where the check calculation was a problem for our group inspite all of us declaring we wanted 'separate checks'. Sadly, we didn't get our checks til 15 minutes before game time. We didn't discover the mix up until well after the game. It took a few phone calls to finally get in contact with the Regional Manager, Daniel, but he was very responsive and promised an opportunity to make it right. We all shared a taquito appetizer which was OK, maybe a bit too crispy and not a lot of flavor. Ben had the Ridiculously Large Tortilla Soup which he said was very good and more than he could finish for a lunch meal. Isla had the cheese Quesadilla which she objected to at the beginning but relented and after eating it agreed it was much better than Taco Bell. She's only five so there's that. I had the shrimp & chicken fajitas which were really good! You get the option of corn/flour tortillas and comes with a generous portion of protein and so many good add on's: spanish rice, refrios, lettuce, pico de gallo and guacamole. Brian, the Manger, checked in on us twice and we had a great server who kept the re-fills coming and making sure everything was OK. This place gets very busy on game day so I recommend getting there by 11am when they open and they do accept on-line reservations. The Ally Bank parking deck is adjacent so it's easy access and relatively affordable for game day parking. You can exit to Good Samaritan Way and avoid the congestion on Brooklyn Village and Tryon Street. read more

I visited this restaurant in hopes of doing a buyout event. The space was very well decorated and lended itself to a nice space for a private event with outdoor/indoor options, DJ, etc. I was surprised that the restaurant (and event manager) did not make sure that we had the best experience, to include service. Our server seemed like they were still in training (slow refill of drinks, didn't bring share plates, etc) - why not assign your most experienced server to our table?? One of the first questions asked is about dietary restrictions - one guest didn't eat pork....her plate included beans mixed with pork. I shared my concern live time to the manager....no follow up at the end of our meal or beyond. Strange way to try and gain business for a buyout for your restaurant! read more

We were meeting someone in the area and were early, so we stopped in to have a drink. Cute space. The bartender was super super nice! I had inquired about mocktails, not listed on the menu and he offered to make me anything on the menu without the booze! He also offered us up some salsa and chips, which unfortunately we declined as we were heading to dinner! I'd definitely go back for a meal! read more

Dos Caminos was conveniently within walking distance from where I was staying, so I decided to give it a try! Upon arrival, I was seated without a reservation, which was a plus. I did wait a little while before the server came over, but once she did, her customer service was spot on. The ambiance of this establishment is very vibrant, with beautiful light fixtures and both indoor and outdoor seating options that set the perfect vibe. They started me off with complimentary chips and salsa--always a nice touch. For my entrée, I went with the pollo tacos, paired with black beans and rice. Honestly, after just one taco I was already full! To sip on, I ordered the passion fruit mocktail, which was refreshing and perfect for the evening. Overall, a great dining experience and worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

I went right when the location opened and again more recently and have had different experiences. I think for the portion sizes and price it is a little bit underwhelming. The space is great but I think it does so well where it is location wise with businesses and the stadium. The food was tasty but the drinks were okay. The first time I got the Birria tacos they were HUGE and more recently they were like wish me tacos. Small and hardly any filling. For the price you could find more authentic and filling Mexican food around! read more

I hate to be this person but this was genuinely one of the worst restaurants I have ever been to. From arriving, the host made us feel like a burden. Moving on to our server, and really all of the staff in general- no personality whatsoever. I work in the industry and have never seen a place with such little joy. At this point I was only hoping at least the food would be good. Unfortunately, it was terrible. Everything was cold and lacked flavor. I also really want to reiterate how terrible our server was. Last thing I think is ridiculous- the prices. $13 for the tiniest queso you've ever seen and $5.25 for a tiny glass of soda.. stay far away this place just made me sad lol read more

If you want good service, ask for Jordan! He made our experience great! The food was amazing and the ambiance was nice! I will be returning.

I'm giving 1 star because I liked their salsa. After 40 minutes waiting for our food, we cancelled our order. We had the guacamole which tasted store bought, and 3 fountain drinks and they charged us 33$. No apologies from management! Do better! read more

Our server Olivia, was great. She remembered everyone's orders. Food came out hot as requested. It was authentic and nice sized portions. .The environment was lively and energetic.

We checked out this popular Mexican restaurant-bar in Uptown Charlotte on a Saturday night... As expected, the place was packed...with a very loud, festive bar ambiance. Seemingly more bar than a restaurant vibe. A bit too loud and bustling...not at all relaxing. My husband ordered Dos Enchiladas, and I ordered Skirt Steak Asada...along with a side of Mexican City Street Corn. Well, right off the bat, it was a dud...because my husband received a wrong order. He might have returned it, but the waiter didn't stop back for awhile, so he just ended up eating it. Dos Enchiladas was supposed to be Chicken, but he said he received Shrimp Enchiladas...and he wasn't too impressed with the taste of this dish either. My Skirt Steak was a dud too. First of all, it was over 30 bucks, so I expected an amazing plate (at least a good plate!). Well, first of all, it was quite small. More importantly, it tasted so bland. The steak was too chewy, and the flavor-sauce was mild and underwhelming. Same with the cheese and the beans....all so soggy, watered down, and just Blahhhh. I could only down one third of it...and my husband helped eat most of it. For a more expensive Mexican specialty like this, I just expected better quality. It just wasn't. Sadly, it made me think of watered down dog food. Also, the corn was O-Kay, but it was overpowered by spicy powder (or whatever it was)...just way too much! Even their house salsa sauce tasted bad...with this weirdly bitter accent. THE only thing I enjoyed was this Queen City Margharita...which was jet black in color, yet surprisingly sweet and tasty. Service wasn't too great either. Again, the place was busy...and our waiter just wasn't too attentive. I literally had to go grab someone to get him to come to our table. He'd literally walk by several times without even glancing our way. Again, he brought us the wrong food (no Dos Enchiladas!)...and the rest wasn't too great either. Guess the only redemption was the drink...but it was quite overpriced. Overall, this was a dining experience we both decided not to repeat. Glad I checked it out, but never again. read more

Uptown Charlotte has rather lackluster food but this is one of the top restaurants in terms of poor food quality and price. I ordered the fajitas that cost 23 dollars and it literally came out in a child size portion. This is the kind of frustration that I find commonplace in the Charlotte food scene. Can restaurants finally start taking pride in their food? I'm hoping one day there will be a change... Photo included for reference. Service was fine... Ambience lack of ingenuity read more

Dos Caminos - Smallest fajita I have ever seen - Mexican Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I wasted my birthday evening here. I ordered a margarita that was so awful it nearly triggered my gag reflex, and even the waiter admitted he'd tasted it in the kitchen and called it disgusting. And my quesadilla: came out cold. I could've stayed home, made a quesadilla, and saved myself $18. Then our waiter blandly announced he'd bring my birthday treat "when he had time", completely killing the element of surprise and leaving my birthday feeling more "meh" than fiesta. It seems as though this place has not put the proper training and care in to their kitchen, bar, nor wait staff before throwing them on to the floor. Needless to say, I will never return. read more

On my trip to Charlotte, my mom's been saying she wants tacos, so saw this place had good reviews and tried it out. It was pretty busy since it's close to all of the offices nearby and at dinner time, but we're able to be sat immediately. We were greeted, brought water and chips and salsa, and after many minutes of contemplating, we ordered the following: passion fruit cocktail/marg, birria tacos, and carne asada tacos. The total came up to be around $60. Food was hot, fresh, and flavorful, and the portions are so filling. It's your typical Mexican restaurant in downtown Charlotte with all the perfect vibes. Definitely come check this place out! read more

Dos Caminos is located in downtown uptown at the corner of Tyron & Brooklyn Village. Large facility w/ lots of Latin decor throughout. Craving some good Mexican food, this place looked like the spot to grab a bite. I arrived close to 6pm. No advertised happy hour. Grabbed an open seat at the bar. Sprinkled tables of guests throughout including the bar. Bartender provided a menu but no recommendations or of any specials. Ordered Barria tacos. Unfortunately, you can't mix and match tacos. If you choose the tacos, you'll get three of the same tacos + beans and rice. Took the food to go and it was delicious. Both the bartender and hostess recommended the Barria tacos. I would too! read more

I came here when I visited my brother in Charlotte. We like to bar hop while strolling the city. I was craving a margarita and we decided to give this place a try. I've seen it before in my previous visit to see him, so I was pretty glad we got to come here. From the service to the prices, everything was pretty decent! We sat at a bar table and had some chips and salsa with our margs. They have a big menu and a variety of things to pick from. Definitely recommend if you're visiting the area! read more

A friend and I came to Dos Caminos for dinner on a Friday. We got there around 4:45 and had to wait to be seated outside. There were open tables but we waited. The host said it would be about 20 min. After about half hour, we went to check on our table and we were able to be seated right away. That was odd. Anyways, we ordered guac as an appetizer. It was good, but I feel like it was a little pricey for the portion. For our entrees I ordered enchiladas and my friend ordered fish tacos. The food was good. Our server was cool too. This place is okay overall. It's a nice option for uptown. read more

Food was great even though it was a bit overpriced for the food portions. We sat at the bar and the service was amazing, super attentive and friendly.

Came to celebrate my friend's birthday. We were seated rather quickly. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla and it was a bit saltier than I'd prefer. The overall review from the table was that their food was "meh" or bland. We did encounter two employees who were not the most friendly, but they did eventually bring the items that we were requesting. Service was pretty slow. Food in my opinion was considered to be a bit pricey for the amount and quality given. Overall, I would likely pass on returning there was nothing memorable to come back for. read more

Convenient location to meetings, Dos Caminos delivers a satisfying mexican dining experience given decor, attentive service and satisfying food. The blackened fish tacos were moderately sized while the house hot sauce/salsa delivered the taste and spice needed. No reason to pass up this spot if you're looking for moderately priced standard Mexican cuisine. read more

I genuinely thought these were some of the worst tacos i've ever had. the guacamole didn't have a lot of flavor, the queso tasted off, my tacos were just not it. my rice was also crunchy. incredibly over priced in my opinion. read more
