| - Came in for a quick dinner one Friday night. I've tried most of the Mexican places on campus, and since my friend had a car, we decided to make our way off-campus to Dos Reales, which has glowing reviews on Yelp.
We came in at about 8:30, the place had quite a few people in it, but there were many open tables and we didn't have to wait.
The inside looks like a Mexican cantina with lots of bright colors and even some rustic decorations.
We perused the extensive menu and settled on beef flautas for me and chicken tacos for her.
My beef flautas were surprisingly good. They were filled with a braised beef and green pepper that had a little kick to it. The rice was pretty standard but the beans were quite delicious. My meal was definitely good, a little better than expected, actually. She said her tacos were good and had similar good things to say about the beans. The chips and salsa were quite mediocre, probably not made in-house, but that's just a guess.
Our server was barely seen, as we didn't exactly need much from him other than to take our order and ask for the check.
For the price, the portions are good and I must've picked one of the better dishes compared to some of the lower-rated reviews.
Decent Mexican food off campus.
I'd come back!
