    Spicy cucumber margarita
    Sofia B.

    Highly recommend! Service was great. Jerry the bartender was our server. He was attentive and respectful. We ordered spicy cucumber margaritas. Sooo delicious. Definitely would order again. I got the pollo a la crema with corn tortillas. There was the perfect amount of crema sauce. Garlicky and yummy. Tortillas were fresh. My friend got the chicken enchiladas and also very good. Chicken was flavorful and wasn't dry at all. Music was authentic and not overly loud. The place was clean and looks taken care of. I wish I got a photo of the food but we were too excited to eat

    Love stopping in for a drink and salsa. I've had the food and it's pretty good too. One bartender is a little light with the alcohol so when we see him I'm not ordering a cocktail I'm getting a michelada with negra modelo. Staff are alright bathrooms clean, tvs to watch the game and it's close by so we like going there.

    Drinks! Chellys favorite, Margarita flight Board, and Strawberry coconut margarita.

    Food, service, and ambience were great. The server checked in made sure we got everything we wanted. The food is flavorful and served quick! The beverages are mixed very well. Some of the most balanced drinks I've had.

    Dropped in for a bite and left feeling like family. The vibes were relaxed, the service was spot on, and the food? Let's just say my taste buds are still dancing. I had a Pacifico with a lime-salted rim, simple, perfect, refreshing. Not everyone gets the rim right, but they nailed it. Danae had the enchiladas and gave them the quiet nod of approval that only comes when it's really good. Now let's talk shrimp...thankfully not prawns, but actual large shrimp, cooked just right. So many places mess this up. Not here. These were tender, flavorful, and downright delicious. You can taste the love in the kitchen. Everything from the chips to the check felt like home with a twist of fiesta. If you' are looking for a spot that serves soul food with a Mexican heartbeat, Dos Compadres is it. Bravo. We'll be back.

    Came to eat at a decent time, sat me down and took them 10 minutes to assist me. Then requested to talk to manager and told him how they helped 3 families before they helped me and acted like he didn't care. No communication between workers. Bad service. Chips were also stale and they couldn't even offer me a cup of water.

    The Best I Ever Had!

    The chimichanga that I had at Taqueria Dos Compadres is the best that I have ever had! It was well cooked and delicious. It comes with your choice of meat, rice, beans, lettuce and guacamole. The taste is rich and flavorful. I had flan for dessert. Again it was the best that I have ever had. The flan is thick enough to stand up and thin enough to put a fork through. It is fluffy and delicious. The caramel is just perfect. It is flavorful and just the right consistency. The wait staff are attentive and friendly. The ambiance is colorful and welcoming. My only regret is that I can't take a picture of the food. I ate it too quickly!

    This is my second time coming here and the first after recently moving. I really enjoyed the amazing service. Plenty of parking in the back and a great ambiance with music and sports on tv in the background. We ordered the shrimp as an appetizer and I really enjoyed it. I also loved the molcajete and the chips and salsa. I'll definitely be coming back again.

    Camarones/Shrimp with a creamy mushroom sauce. Rice/beans/flour tortillas. Hardly any beans, very sad. :(

    I have never been to Dos Compadres before. We were in the area (McHenry Avenue in Modesto) with a friend, and I hardly ever have Mexican food! I love Mexican food. However, when we dine out, we usually end up somewhere else. It was clean and visually appealing inside. Lots of colorful displays of papel picado, "punched" or "perforated" paper. The flowers are pretty, and the booth we sat in was roomy and comfortable. The waitress was sweet and on top of it! She was friendly and helped us navigate the menu, since it was our first time at this restaurant. I was appreciative for her suggestions. She also brought everything in a timely manner, even when they started to get a little busy. My food was delicious. I asked for my camarones/shrimp with creamy mushroom sauce to not have any cilantro or wine. They were accommodating. It came with rice and beans, a little salad (lettuce and tomato) and choice of flour or corn tortillas. I was a bit sad that the refried beans were not plentiful. There was much more rice than beans (I posted a photo). The bowl hides the fact that there were hardly any beans to speak of. My plate was about $20.00. My friend ordered the Taco Tuesday special. Just $2.00 each. They come standard with choice of meat: beef, chicken, carnitas, or pastor, onions, cilantro, salsa, and lemon wedges. I ordered some tacos to go for my son, he only wanted the meat and easy cilantro. He said he wished it had a little cheese on it, but they tasted good. Overall, a good experience. I would definitely eat here again. I would just hope the lack of beans was a fluke.

    I prefer this vs chipotle. Got the veggie burrito and it was perfect (see photo). Service was friendly. Sat outside with my dog.

    I come here pretty often, and it's always a solid choice for Mexican food in town. The food is…read moreconsistently good, the drinks are solid, and they easily have the best chips and salsa around. Service is always friendly and reliable, which keeps me coming back. My only real recommendation is to avoid sitting in the bar area if you're in a hurry. Service there tends to move a lot slower, so it can take a while to get your order in and get your food. The restaurant itself is a little run down, and the bathrooms could definitely use some attention, but the bar and outside area is decorated nicely and has a good atmosphere overall. All in all, it's a great local spot and one I keep going back to.

    Unfortunately, this was a really disheartening experience…read more We waited over an hour for our food, and when it finally came out there was an issue with the size of the menudo bowl that had been offered to us. Instead of trying to resolve the situation or make it right, the manager, Noah, became argumentative and tried to debate what had been said rather than listen to the customer. After waiting that long, the last thing anyone expects is to feel like they have to argue just to be heard. What made it more disappointing was the lack of willingness to fix the issue or offer a solution. We came in hoping for a good meal and left feeling frustrated and unheard. It's sad because good service could have easily turned this into a positive experience. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case here. At the end of it he realized and came back and finally apologized.

The service was great. We were greeted with a smile. We arrived right when they opened, so we received our food promptly. While waiting for our food, we received chips and salsa. The ambiance was kinda quiet, being the only ones in the restaurant, but they had upbeat Mexican music playing. *The cook did get our order wrong, they gave my husband chicken, instead of asada.

    Great traditional Mexican food. This place never disappoints. I started with the whiskey smash,…read morewhich was a refreshing variation of almost a margarita. The complimentary chips along with their salsa and beans paired amazingly well. I proceeded to get the choose three build your own combo with a beef taquito(pictured), green chicken enchilada, and a chicken burrito. The beef taquito was first of all huge, the biggest one that I have ever seen. It came with plenty of toppings including guacamole, sour cream, cheese, cabbage, and tomatoes. The burrito was decent, definetely could have used at least some more salsa, ended up being a filler on my plate. I saved the best for last, the classic enchilada was smothered in a delicious salsa that I dipped my other two items into.

Apart from the food, the service exceeded my expectations and it is perfect for your next casual dining experience.

I asked for grilled chicken and got stewed chicken with absolutely zero flavor. They said it came with guacamole and sour cream--neither were anywhere to be found. The "salad" was basically lettuce, pico, and whole beans with a super tiny portion overall. I added bell peppers and onions, maybe five pieces total, and they hit me with a $6 upcharge. Would've been nice to know that before so I could've said no thanks. Final price for this subpar salad? $25. I actually had to go back just to show them. The bar manager, Hamad (spelling), tried to help by adding more chicken and then told me the sour cream and guac were "under the shell." Really? Who hides condiments under the shell? Total waste of time and money. I'm done. No more chances.
