    Bland Mexican Food I've been waiting to give a review on them for many years. I'm glad that I finally get to give them a well deserved branding. I'm happy to see them sitting at 2.5 stars on Yelp, because that is right in the sweet spot. I've only eaten here twice in my life, once many years ago which made me sick, and here recently right after the OU game. I found myself on the east side of Norman around 8ish and in need of some mexican food. I thought to myself, maybe the first time years ago was a fluke, let's try it again. I thought the place was clean, the service was good. And, luckily I didn't get sick this time, which was a plus. Here is what we had: Chips - pretty good, although they were cold Salsa - the typical pulverized tomato style, it was ok. Tortillas - waiter said that they were homemade but they didn't look or taste homemade. Chicken Fajitas for 2 - I'm really not sure why this happens in some places, but it's as if they believe that cooking chicken with bell peppers and onions (together) by itself (without seasoning) will produce good flavor. Sometimes, I wonder if some mexican places like this are just mad about the popularity of Fajitas, and do not consider it relevant mexican food. Either way, these came out BLAND and I was barely able to choke them down. Beans & Rice - Beans were very bland, and the Rice was also bland & undercooked, not very good on either. Not impressed by them at all...

    An old standby, I have been going here for years and years. Very similar to Chelinos, and the singing guitar player adds a nice touch to the atmosphere.

    Service is slow. Food is mediocre and took 15 minutes to get my check. I'll skip this place in the future.

    I can't believe there are no reviews. Los Dos is incredibly popular in Norman. In most ways that one can describe in an online review, it's "just another" Mexican restaurant with a Northern (i.e. Tex Mex) bent. To my taste, and that of many in the southwest, it's the best one there is. This is a family restaurant with locations in surrounding small towns owned separately by different family members. In Norman, it's a tradition for students from socialists to frat boys to come here when parents are in town. I and many others took first dates here, including my wife. It's also very popular among the Latino/a community, at least those I worked with around Norman, and with a wide swath of locals who like good food. It's slightly out of the way, but they've had to expand the parking lot and people still park all over the adjoining grass field. Nonetheless, it's quite roomy and the wait is rarely over 10 minutes. The building gets painted a different outrageous color every couple of years, but the food stays glorious. My personal favorite is the often overlooked Caldo de Pescado, an amazing stew of shrimp, fish, carrots and peppers. Lots of restaurants have it on the menu; nowhere else does it pop pop POP! If you want to be slightly adventurous, ask for warm salsa. They used to bring it to every table, but I guess most people weren't eating it. It's a thin, cilantro-heavy salsa with very little tomato flavor. I haven't had a similar one anywhere, honestly, and it's my all-time favorite. Bisteck, shrimp verde, enchiladas...I could go on all night. Oh look, I have. Dang. Tex Mex is my favorite cuisine, and this is my favorite Tex Mex. Okay, okay, drinks: soft drinks are huge and refilled attentively. Margaritas are okay, and wonderfully inexpensive. Beer is bottle only, but much alcohol and you won't be able to eat even half of your heaping plate of goodness.

    There are some people in Norman who are very partial to this restaurant. The husband and I met some friends for dinner there the other night, and I cannot understand why anyone would like this place. It looked dirty. I don't expect a Tex-Mex place to be high class, but I do expect a certain level of comfort and cleanliness from any eating establishment. The food was okay. The husband got chicken enchiladas and I got cheese ones. He took his home, but when I went to eat the leftovers the next day he said he threw them out because he thought they made him sick. The service was decent until we were ready to pay, and then it took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to get the bill. I do not expect to ever go back, there are other places in the area that are way better.

    I've heard people brag on this place, but the food really didn't appeal to me at all. I ate there once and never had the urge to go back. Restaurants serving Tex-Mex in Oklahoma are a dime a dozen, and this one definitely falls in that sort of "average" category. The salsa was runny and the chips were too hard (overbaked). I prefer salsa that resembles pureéd tomatoes and it was nowhere to be found. The enchiladas I had were average at best. If you're looking for good mexican food, KEEP LOOKING, because you won't find it at "Gross" Dos Amigos. In Norman I prefer Tarahumara's instead, it blows this place out of the water.

    I can see why some people would really like this place and some would not. There are some things we had that were pretty good and some that were pretty bland so depending on what you order and what your taste preference is it might go either way. If I lived here I'd continue looking for a good Mexican restaurant to call my favorite. Give it a try and see whether you fall into the love it or hate it camp.

    This is one of my favorite places. The salsa is excellent. The service is fast. I've never had to wait more than 5-10 minutes for a table. The owner grows a lot of his own peppers and vegetables during the summer and spring. Ask for some of the very hot jalapenos if you are brave enough. The food is slightly Tex-Mex-ish, but definitely more flavorful than other alternatives. The prices are incredibly reasonable. The restaurant provides free chips, salsa, tortillas, and queso. I was surprised that someone said there weren't many vegetarian options. There is an excellent botanas plate that is vegan-friendly, plus chile rellenos, enchiladas, quesadillas, and burritos that are vegetarian friendly. The staff are also willing to make substitutions. We never have a hard time finding a vegan or vegetarian option.

    This is average Tex Mex on the east side of Norman. I had lunch at Los Dos on a Monday, arriving around 12:45. Service was fantastic, we were immediately greeted for our drink order, and chips/salsa/queso/flour tortillas arrived about 30 seconds after we gave our drink order. We then requested the relish, which came very quickly as well. I liked their salsa, it had a little more flavor that your typical gratis salsa at a Tex Mex/Mexican place. The queso was average at best. I had a lunch chicken chimichanga, which is very large and served with rice and beans. Great value for lunch. It is covered in the cheese sauce, which again, is just average. Service continued to be above average throughout our lunch. We received refills without even asking, and got our check very quickly. I didn't dislike my meal at Los Dos, it's just that there are other Tex Mex options in Norman that are better. So, I'd be willing to return, but it's unlikely.

    Trust the yelp.. We went on a recommendation of a friend after our old favorite TexMex changed their menu. This won't be our new one. Boyfriend is a vegetarian and options were limited. Service was slow (Tortillas came at same time as Entree).. I had a sampler plate and the oil just ran off the taco, the chili relleno was mushy, and the tostada was nothing special. It took a long time to get the bill.. we paid cash to not wait.. People were nice, but we won't be returning.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
