If i could give negative I would!!! Terrible service. Disgusting, overpriced "New Mexican" style food that is a JOKE! We notified the server that our guacamole was way too salty and he did nothing. Requested new guac twice and nothing! Food was way too spicy to enjoy, so spicy that coming from someone who eats spicy EVERYDAY was SWEATING as they ate!!!! We were being charged for beer that was not even on the menu! And when we called over the manager, the joke of an owner appeared as well...She stated that we need to "better read" the menu. When we proved to her that it wasnt even on the menu, she became enraged and so unprofessional!!! She kept repeating herself and was not listening to what we had to say. Under her breathe, my siblings all heard her say that "these people need to pay their bill and get the *eff out of here." I even told the owner her place and the food was a joke, but she simply responded with "Thats why this place has been open over 30 years!" ---Only reason its been open that long was because it was run by her PROFESSIONAL/ATTENTIVE family!! If you want salty and overpriced "authentic" Mexican food, head over to Dos Molinos! Needless to say we are never returning to this disgusting place.

The atmosphere is great. Authentic old Mexico style with eclectic style outdoor decor and seating. Our service was horrible though. One server came and brought a couple of glasses stacked up sat them on our table with two pitchers of water and walked away. We poured our own water and but then had to ask for a couple of cups for my niece and nephew. We then got a female server and my daughters boyfriend ordered a Corona and she brought him a Sprite. She did go back for the Corona but it felt like that set the stage for even worse service. We ordered a cheese crisp for my 5 and 3 year old niece and nephew and they charged for a plate for my niece to use even though the cheese crisp came on a pizza pan. My nephew just ended up using a napkin. They never brought enough napkins or silverware for all of us to eat our food. The tostadas were burnt but the whole time we were eating no one came to see if we needed anything nor could we find a server without getting up and serching. We finally had to get up and search for someone to ask for our bill. A guy came and set it on the table and walked away without a word. My daughters boyfriend took the bill and again had to go find someone to help him to so he could pay.

First it was the grandparents, and it was good. Then it was the two daughters, and it was really good. Now "the grandaughter" is in charge and this place went right down the tubes. The rice I ordered was soured, nobody apologized or took blame. In fact, they kept serving it. Ordered a pork roast and got shredded pork that was obviously pulled from a puddle of water in the steamtable. Watery garbage. When I called the manager over, she reminded me that her family owns this restaurant (about 6 times), but did not actually take blame. She argued with me about the definition of the word "roast." The artificially colored, neon-green margaritas really sent it the meal into garbage territory. Oh, and I waited 15 minutes before I was greeted by a server. I used to come here all of the time, but now that the grandkiddies took over, save your money for Taco Bell. Youll do better. I just cant believe the manager argued with me over the definition of the word "roast."

Since we are lucky enough to have this "New Mexican" restaurant close to us, we have been here many times to try out the menu. We have found that the Host/Hostesss are pleasant and accommodating and the servers are very attentive. (we have only had one time where the new server whom seemed very distracted, left us sitting outside without our drink refills for quite a while) They greet you with a smile even when it is Spring Training time and the place is PACKED. I am a Huge fan of the Pozole/Posole and Chile Rellenos, my husband really enjoys the Carne Adovado Enchilada dinner. The Salsas are amazing, Green and Red. Both together make "Christmas" for me which I order all the time. Their "Margaritas" are excellent (we order the Kick Ass Margars!) and to finish off our dinners we always gravitate to the "Flan". It is a great way to finish off an awesome dinner. Yes! We like it here!

Service The service was fantastic. Everyone from the restaurant was super friendly and attentive. Food The food can be hot and spicy but sometimes it lacks flavor. Drinks Margaritas are good and strong. Be sure to order your shot of tequila out of a jalapeño. I ordered the green chile stew. It was delicious. It was spicy. I loved it. It comes with a side of rice and it is a huge portion. I suggest eating half and taking the rest home to enjoy later. We also of course had sopaipillas for dessert served with ice cream. Delicious. Cleanliness This place was clean. Value The price that I paid for the meal was fair. I would go back every day, except for Monday and Sunday because they are closed. This place reminds me of eating at the most delicious New Mexico restaurants.

What a trip! Visited Los Dos Molinos in a party of four and had to wait for a table! At first they tried to stick us in a corner but we decided to wait it out in 100+ degree weather outside. When we did get a table it needed some coasters to stop rocking! I do not know how this happened but three out of four of us ordered the carnitas, hardly a sampling of the food. The carnitas were good but a little dry. The tortilla chips were warm but so thick they could have been used to hurt someone. More like warmed up Tostitos than anything else. The soft tortillas were also thick...more like pita bread but without the pocket. One of our party received his enchilada with an egg on top...that seemed odd but cool. The sauces were good but spicy by default.

The wife and I love hot food. The hotter the better. If I dont sweat its not that good. The salsa will make you sweat for sure. The carne adobada is absolutely delicious. I hear the blue tamales are as well but havent had them yet. I will try them soon. Update: I went back for my Bday. The service was extremely wretched. The main guy that is always there is not helpful at all and gives the absolute worst service. If you are reading this you know who you are you scrawny short little prick. The blue tamales sucked. I hear the original location is still good. Hopefully they will fire their main server and get a new one to save this place. I will never return to this location.

have been a huge fan UNTIL NOW! blue corn tamale - small and dry and hard like it had been microwaved! even the sauce did not help. not up to the usual spiciness on any of the food. I could practically drink the salsa. sheesh! so what is left - oh, yes - the beans. They were cold. as in room temperature cold. After taking a few bites I sent the plate back. When it came back it looked like they had scraped off some of the food and the tamale was even harder!! still room temperature food. now, if someone suggests los dos molinos I will suggest otherwise. Seriously, what happened to the food quality!!!! Go to Tee Pee. at least they are consistent and their tamales are good.
