Dos Banderas Restaurant

This was our first visit. The decor was nice, not over done. Staff was friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the enchiladas verde. The sauce was perfect for a hot summer day. The rice and beans were also delicious. At times other places I pass on them. My husband had a huge clay pot filled with chicken, cactus and beef. The flavor was so uniquely delicious. Almost smoky but not quite. Hard to describe. He also had a margarita, which was generous in size and alcohol. Prices were reasonable and portions were on the generous size for us. We are definitely coming back.

Food was crazy fast.
Upon seating, our server took our drink order and then came back a few minutes later for our food order. After he took our order he asked us if we wanted chips and salsa….
Isn’t that one of the main things most people look forward to when dining at a Mexican restaurant, chips and salsa?
I was confused and thrown off-guard by this question so I replied no.
All I could see was $$ Dollar signs flashing in my mind and I was nervous by how much they were going to charge for the chips and salsa, which honestly would have been fine if there was a charge it was just weird that he asked us after the fact if we wanted chips and salsa and it wasn’t clear how much they were going to be. Most people don’t have a problem paying a small amount for chips and salsa as long as the server is upfront with this information.
Food was very fast, hot, and had excellent flavor. The server tried to clear my plate when I was barely halfway done but honestly it might be his first job he just needs to not be so antsy when trying to clear people’s food so fast… Whoa.. so we just got our food two minutes ago, and it came in less than 2 minutes, we have not even been here for 10 minutes and now you’re trying to take my plate away… bro slow your roll! No complaints at all in the long-run… I am just passing this information on to help everyone there to learn from all of these fun little quirks.

I see this restaurant being very successful keep up the yummy food!

Overall the experience was okay. Walking in the building hard to tell that it was a Mexican restaurant. The waiter was great and very attentive. Food was good but we felt it was over priced for the small portion that we got. When ordering a soda like Pepsi or mountain dew, they didn't taste correct. We were informed it was because of the well water they had on tap that mixed with syrup.
