Apologies if the name is wrong but believe our servers name was Alex. I will say he did a great job maneuvering between all the tables. Constantly checking in never felt left out or overlooked. Beautiful restaurant, if you can grab a window seat EVEN BETTER. Now to the actual review. The food was GREAT. Restaurant was jam packed and the food was HOT and TASTY. Drinks are great. Not enough great things can be said. Definitely will be back. read more

I really wanted to give this place 5 ...ambiance is great. Welcoming and cordial. unfortunately the white meat on the chicken was just dry and the service was just as dry. It looked great and the flavors were solid but the execution lacked and the ability to correct was just as bad. I didn't get my order for 20+ minutes which explains the dryness...dark meat still was moist so that was nice and the saffron rice and veggies were cooked perfect al dente. They didn't give me silverware for at least 10 minutes after food arrived. After I expressed the dryness of the white meat to the bartender/waitress said she would get me some new meat...other girls failed to execute and took my full plate of uneaten white meat. read more

DOSALAS - Chicken - Latin American Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Olgatron was the best server ever. AMAZING FOOD & drinks & service! Love this restaurant. Will always recommend this to family & friends.

Food was great! Wasn't disappointed with the service either. Would recommend! Great place to go out on a date!

Came for happy hour and really enjoyed the harvest salad and steak tacos! Steak and chicken were moist.

We sat outside on a lovely Friday afternoon but probably got there too early as there were few customers to dilute the over-attention of the 4 energetic workers who tried desperately to upsell us. We were there at 1:00 for a light lunch and didn't care to drink much. If you are going to charge as if the intention is to keep the riff-raff out the service better fit a wealthy clientele and not badger them to buy more food and drinks. The food was unremarkable. The DoSalas Latin Bisque was disappointing, with surprisingly chewy chicken in a thin soup that had a main note of bbq sauce. I thought they might be working out the kinks as a new business, but they opened 10 months ago. The setting is very nice, but I have to wonder if the nut is just too much to cover, or if a new manager is pressuring servers and plying them with Redbull or something. If you are going to charge $11 for a small plate of carrots, I suggest the proprietors visit Canlis in Seattle to witness how they let the wealthy exist in peace. read more

We loved our first visit to Dosalas. Upscale eatery on the waterfront with great views and ambiance. Small plates are a little pricey but very good. My wife and I shared the paella for two which included lobster, shrimp and a couple of different mussels. Rice was done perfectly and the spice was nicely balanced. Plenty of food for the two of us and we didn't have room for dessert. Service was spot on, attentive but not hovering. Food came out very quickly, probably because we were there just after 4 PM. Another solid restaurant in this developing little trendy waterfront area of Vancouver, highly recommended. read more

Sunday Brunch that had numerous issues. Wrote an email about it to 'guest services' - silence.

I have been to Dosalas twice now and have been continually impressed by the ambiance/atmosphere and beautifully plated food that we received. Service was slow the last time we went as the bartender unfortunately didn't put our drink order in. However - we were given 2 complimentary flutes of the house tequila to make up for the mistake. Every time we go my boyfriend and I get the paella for 2 (pictured). It is savory with excellent flavors, fresh ingredients, and a perfect serving size for two people. I recommend Dosalas for a special occasion as it is on the pricier end, but you do get what you pay for. Glad to have them at the waterfront for a dressier and fancier option. Disclaimer: last time we went, I observed many guests that were coming in and/or leaving the restaurant not wearing masks. I did not notice staff not masked, but if you are COVID-conscious I would not recommend this restaurant during the omicron and delta spikes. read more

Came in for a birthday occasion at about 7 pm and was disappointed because their tomahawk and pork chops was sold out ended up ordering the filet mignon medium well done When we got our food the steak was undercooked and the mash potatoes was too watery and so as the salad under seasoned and watery ended up throwing half the food away. My initial reaction was nice looking restaurant but food was a disappointment. read more

I have not idea why this does not have 5 Stars across the board. The food and service were spectacular. We had the clams and oysters which were so flavorful and the Tuna appetizer. Wow we would eat here again in a second to try more. We also had the sampler margaritas which all had excellent taste and variety. read more

Empanadas And some really amazing drinks.... all of the above food was just brilliant and extremely well made.

This was our third time here, never had any issues, last night we went for a friends birthday. We ordered a mojito and there was no alcohol in it. The waitress took it back and 30 min later said they had run out of the rum and that's why there was no alcohol in it and they didn't want to open a new bottle due to quality control we had to wait for an hour to get a mojito with vodka in it. It was just a weird situation, it wasn't that busy either, and we have always spent hundreds of dollars here, our highest bill being 700 ish. It was disappointing and kind of embarrassing when done in front of our friends read more

Really fun, Las Vegas club atmosphere. Great place for drinks and scenery, but not for food. We had several small plates. The best could be described as decent, but some were really pedestrian or worse. My recommendation is to stick with the guacamole and street corn. read more

Hubby & I were so excited to try out Dos Alas for a nice date night...quickly ruined by poor service and sloppy presentation. To start, our waiter Alex forgot about my drink, (which btw I saw posted several times on IG as an awesome drink) husband had to get up to find our waiter! When my Tiffany drink finally came almost 40 minutes after placing the order the box drink was splashed all over the box, the glass was gross and sticky...and the drink itself extremely distasteful! I totally understand when the place is busy, however, the quality and taste are extremely overpriced for what I received. We've been here a few times and sadly each time the service is slow and drinks lack quality/taste! Would recommend management to conduct sampling or check in on your customers, especially for those prices. Final note the atmosphere is like always stunning, no complaints there. read more

There are a lot of really great options here for a fun night out. The ceviche, cauliflower and empanadas are always a must for us. The chicken plate was good. The flourless chocolate dessert is also amazing. Mocktails are okay, not sure if they are worth the price. read more

Modern spot with great vibes! We were able to make reservations over the weekend. Once we arrived, we checked in with the host and waited for our table to open up. When our table was ready, a host led us upstairs to our table. Our server was very attentive and made sure that we were taken care of by periodically checking in. We ordered the Froze, moscowlito mule, a glass of sparkling rose, short rib empanadas, Dungeness crab toast, and Mexican street corn. The food was great and I would say that the drinks are even greater! Dosalas is a great establish that overlooks the Vancouver waterfront, has great food and drinks, plays great music, and has decorative interior that are great for photo ops! Overall, a wonderful place to check out for any occasion. read more

I was so excited to try a new place. The ambience, decor, and the look of this restaurant is gorgeous. I love the chandeliers every detail had thought put in it. Don't waste your time on the Caesar salad. The drinks were pretty cool and sophisticated however my drink was not worth $22. Our food came out before our drinks. The food is so expensive and it does not match the flavor of the food. $175 for a steak? And if you're vegan forget it. Several bus boys came to our table to remove dishes and we weren't even done. They told us to get 3 to 4 dishes per person there was two of us and we ordered four Which was plenty. There's no room on a two top table if you order four dishes. read more

Sabrina was great! Very friendly and helpful. I had a fruitful experience. The Nachos were divine steak was tender and cheese was tangy. Tequila was wonderful read more

Flawless experience and some of the best food I've had in Portland, let alone Vancouver. I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing view, I had not realized it was on the 2nd floor over Wildfin. Don't worry, there is an easy elevator up. My group can't do stairs. We asked for small plate suggestions from our server and were blown away by the recommended cauliflower and the crispy ribs - soooo good. I also had the salmon, which was amazing. The quinoa was done almost rissoto style and was so flavorful with a little surprise of whole almonds. Everything at the table was very good, not one complaint or regret. Drinks are pricey but good, and ours came so fast that I made a comment to my group. The restaurant gave me a really nice dessert for my bday too. read more

My wife planned a surprise anniversary dinner tonight and what was supposed be a special, memorable night turned out to be a night out in hell. What a shame and embarrassment for a place that tries so hard in aesthetics but falls short in value, quality and customer service -- the things that truly matter in a restaurant. 1. We arrived about 45 mins early before our 7pm reservation to grab some cocktails at the bar and were seated at the outside patio. 20 mins past 7pm and after consecutive inquiries with different staff that walked by, we were still waiting to be seated for our anniversary dinner. 2. Finally, a host came out to apologize about the delay and proceeded to escort us to a small table across the bar inside. Right away, we politely reminded the staff that we had a dinner reservation and that we wanted to get seated somewhere else away from the bar. The server objected and walked away for several minutes. She came back finally and once again, apologized about the mix up and let us know they finally arranged for a more spacious, appropriate dining table for us. This was already about 45 minutes past our 7pm reservation. 3. Who knew things could get even worse? As soon as we were seated, a server named Allison introduced herself and an assistant she was training, and proceeded to tell my wife and I, "hello and welcome, ladies, how are you?" Shocked and annoyed, I turned to the server and told her who I was and that she should not make assumptions based on people's appearances. I could not believe how incompetent this server was especially working in a culturally specific restaurant. 4. By the time our dishes arrived to our table (pork belly, short rib, tortilla soup, ancho rubbed salmon and two cocktails), what was supposed to be a fun, memorable evening was already negative and frustrating. The food was bland, some dishes including the soup arrived cold, and just like many other reviews have indicated, the prices were excessively overpriced. Bottom line: I do NOT recommend this place to anyone. This place lacks professionalism and customer service, competent staff, culturally responsive and respectful servers, and overall quality and value. Don't be fooled by its hollow aesthetics and spend your hard-earned money somewhere else where you will be treated genuinely with respect, attention and care. read more

I don't even know where to begin..... terribly unhappy hosteses....... sassy little water guy and a poor excuse for a manager with no common curtesy! We were greeted like we did not belong. Then we requested the blinds to go up since all the tables wanted the same thing, manager came out and said everybody wanted them closed very rudely. Then we proceeded to get multiple dishes with different color hairs in it! We complained and they still acted like we did bot belong! Listed i am a local business owner and i would never dream in a million years of treating someone as they did us on my wife's birthday! Not just by one person but 4 and the disrespectful manager! Ps.... ill take taco bell over this discriminatory crap hole any day of the week!!! read more

Tequila Tequila Tequila!! Wow did the new tequila bar and restaurant at the waterfront live up to the expectation! I honestly can't decide if I enjoyed the food, the drinks, or the restaurant more. There is so much detail throughout this restaurant, it embodies the essence of class. Each drink has beautiful presentation, the old fashioned comes in a smoked glass case. The food is family style, so small shareable plates that keep you coming back for more! The fried short ribs were my favorite, I've never had anything like it. They were crunchy and crisp on the outside and so tender and juicy inside. Amazing experience! read more

Nice river view ambiance. Not a quiet place, however a great place to socialize with friends or one on one with a special friend. High top tequila in margaritas. Good food, friendly service, and clean. read more

We were pretty skeptical about this place, but wanted to give it a try. Before you see the 2 stars, I do have to mention the Seafood Paella is delicious and the grilled octopus is amazing. We also had a hamachi crudo, I had a bone in one of my pieces so it wasn't cleaned properly. --- It was all booked up when we came, but the front host said she can seat us if we choose to stay at a maximum of an hour. I was reluctant but we rushed up anyways because we really wanted to try the food. We got two drinks, can't quite remember what they were, but I had a pretty nice Old Fashioned come out in a presentable smoke box and she got a variant of a tequila sunrise. What we ordered: 2 cocktails, Seafood paella, Grilled Octopus, Hamachi Crudo. Total bill, roughly $180. I felt that if they knocked down each entree by $5-8 bucks, I'd be a bit happier. Obviously I couldn't have my full dining experience as I was kind of being rushed, but our food came out quickly and we were able to finish in time before the reserved table guests came along. Here's my absolute take: it's overpriced for Vancouver. I've lived in LA for a long time, I've spent a lot and a little at different restaurants all across the country and I can't find any reason to justify the pricing. I'll admit, it must be to cover the cost of the extravagant decor (which also looks really nice.) The views are really nice within the restaurant and the overlook onto the Columbia is amazing, but why pay wholly for that experience? I think my biggest qualm was when I inquired about the Tesla Tequila shots ($300 per shot). I told the waitress I had two bottles at home that retailed for about $250 each. She said, "There's no way our owner would charge $300, it must be the "Extra Anejo" version of Tesla Tequila. Right....unfortunately, The "Extra Anejo" version of Tesla Tequila doesn't exist. Something about this place makes me felt like I was poor entering it. Maybe it was the server. read more

Best restaurant in Portland/Vancouver. Amazing margaritas!! The food was so so good. We had the empanadas (best), corn, mashed potatoes, pork belly, crab toast, Brazilian bread, and the corn chowder (only thing we didn't love). I will def be back time and time again. I'm shocked that this place has 3.5 stars?! If you are on the fence, don't listen to the haters it is absolutely worth and you won't be disappointed. read more

Probably closer to a 3.5 but I'll bump to 4 because the vibe was fun! Overall i get what they're going for- trendy, Instagram-able, fun and creative drinks, good food. The margs were actually great! But once I saw a cocktail for $30 I was like honey I'm from chicago and even we aren't that nuts (most of the time) The tuna tostadas were awesome and honestly the salmon was great too. The octopus you can skip- I love grilled octopus but this was not as buttery and soft as I've had. The tempura cauliflower was also tasty! I'd get those three and share. Overall fun- but a weee too pricey for the quality. If you're looking to splurge for a bday or date night, I'd say go for it read more

Made reservations waited for 20 minutes in the downstairs lobby. (After our reservation time) As group after group walked in and was seated. No big deal, sat outside very nice view and fire display. Food was ok at best, by no means justified the prices for the delayed, mediocre, and overpriced experience. Service was terrible, couldn't remember to bring a Pepsi or a beer took 25 mins after ordering a second beer to actually get it.... that's after the waiter checked in 4 times saying "you don't have your drinks yet " it was two of us dinning. we ordered the same "dinner" if you can call it that more of a overpriced appetizer mind you they came 15 minutes apart..... Just offer a meal not your overpriced "small plate" Stuff people go to dinner to eat dinner not snack on overpriced cheap food served every 45 minutes. In conclusion, this place is all about Appearance (location is nice) but the mediocre food, slow service, and lack of a real dinner was disappointing. read more

Went to DOSALAS Latin kitchen + tequila bar last night for dinner. The tuna tostada appetizer was a small portion, and a little salty. Flavorful but lost the main ingredient in everything else. Could be saved if they added thicker chucks of tuna. The saving Grace was the seafood paella! The paella and all the seafood was cooked perfectly and had great full flavors. We ended with the cheesecake which was also very nice. Overall would definitely go back. So many other dishes I would like to try on their menu. Plus amazing decor and atmosphere. read more
