Dos Salsas

Review Title: No Salsa – Full Disappointment in a Grand Setting Rating: ⭐☆☆☆☆ (1/5) Review: We walked in with high hopes because the building is grand and the space is beautiful — you’d think the food would match that vibe. Unfortunately, it was a total letdown. The tacos, enchiladas, rice, beans, and even the tortilla soup were bland and flavorless. The food just didn’t live up to the impressive setting. The salsas were the biggest disappointment. We got three different kinds and not one of them had any spice or real flavor. It was like dipping into watered-down tomato sauce. Honestly, the place should be called No Salsa. When a Mexican restaurant can’t get the salsa right, it sets the tone for everything else. In the end, the lovely space is just a wasted opportunity. The staff was friendly, but that can’t make up for food this disappointing. We left having to plan another birthday lunch somewhere else to make up for it. Honestly, I have no idea how they stay open. Not worth it, and I wouldn’t recommend it.

The food was okay, house margarita was great and I enjoyed the atmosphere. However, I was surprised by how expensive the drinks were, and I found your gratuity policy for larger parties a bit concerning. For groups of six or more, I understand that a 25% gratuity is automatically added. However, if we choose to split the check, each person is then charged a separate 20% gratuity on their portion, and the receipt still prompts for an additional tip. This feels excessive, as gratuity is already meant to serve as a tip for the service.

Bang for your buck! Easy parking and the food, service, and atmosphere were wonderful. You get lots of food for the price you pay, and the drinks are also delicious. There was a live band and karaoke for Friday night dinner, and their happy hour is hard to beat!

Stopped here to celebrate my cousins bday. Wr didnt stay to eat. But, my sister & I sat at the bar for a cocktail, chips & salsa. Whoever the bar tender was she made us a delicious margarita🍸 on the rocks. The salsa and chips were so good. We stayed long enough to see the food my family ordered and it looked sooo good !!! They give you alot of food, too! Next time we go to Austin ,TX we will be back to this place for sure!

Realized I’ve never reviewed this restaurant after having come here for YEARS and loving the experience I have every single time I come. My 3 friends and I enjoy the ceviche, the tamales, the quesadillas, the enchiladas, the flaquites, the stuffed pechuga and a bunch more. That isn’t even mentioning their drinks which are also fantastic — never had a bad drink here! Tonight we had particularly fantastic service from Javi(or Xavi?) which was what prompted me to check to see if I had reviewed Dos Salsas yet. The entirety of their wait staff is efficient, professional, patient and kind. We always feel so welcome when we visit here, and I can look around the restaurant and see that the other patrons feel the same way. That takes a lot of work to maintain and it’s worth a shout out by itself! The location seems to be very well-managed, with several different people checking on us throughout the night. I would recommend Dos Salsas to anyone, no matter your age or walk of life I bet you’ll figure out how to have a good time here. They even do events like karaoke! Go to Dos Salsas!

Exceptional service and a wonderful atmosphere. The food was exquisite, and the frozen margaritas were absolutely delicious 😋. The restaurant manager, along with her staff, provided us with first-class service.

Good old clean Tex Mex food, huge!! 2 stories!! Nice decor with several TV 📺 to watch F1 or Longhorns football or any sports. They have karaoke on Fridays and Saturday, full bar, and great service.

food was good and affordable for austin! fast service and my water glass never ran empty. couldn’t finish all the food because its so filling!

I normally just go in for happy hours & drinks and occasionally I may have date night here and indulge in some food, but mostly for drinks. I must admitt that I'm secretly crushing on Hilda the bartender lol.. Izzy is a very cool person and she gets you taken care of.. overall the restaurant has a nice layout to it. There is a down stairs and upstairs sitting. A great place to take a date.

This place used to be great, but it's not worth it anymore. The food is still good, but the service is shockingly bad--even for a patient person like me. We walked in to an empty restaurant after lunch rush and waited awkwardly while the host texted for nearly 2 minutes before even acknowledging us. The server didn't know the menu, didn't mention a lunch menu, and forgot basics like chips with queso, plates, and tortillas with fajitas. We had to repeatedly ask for everything. No one checked on us, and we only got help when another staff member noticed us while cashing someone else out. To top it off, a $10 tip was automatically added--which explains why no one seems to care. This place has seriously gone downhill. Don't waste your time or money here. Ordered: small queso, 2 soft drinks, fajitas for 2 = $82

I have been going to their Georgetown location for years and the food is just as good here in Austin, but much better parking! Nice large location with a large open dining area on the second floor. The first floor area was closed during lunch, so a sign pointed us to go upstairs. Elevator for those who can't or don't want to do stairs. I had the cheese enchiladas. Very good. It was a workday, so no drinks, but maybe next time for dinner or the weekend. Service was good, but not great for lunchtime. A bit slow and there was an issue running my friend's credit card - he said it was short - how would that even happen if he keyed it correctly? Added a delay to an already rushed lunch.

Came for lunch with a coworker and had a great experience! Dos Salsas lunch menu is a really good deal with awesome portions. I got the two chicken enchiladas which came with a soup or salad and rice and your choice of beans. We also got an order of queso to share and it was very good. Service was good and fast and the restaurant itself is very large with nice seating. Overall great spot to grab a quick meal!

Went to a birthday party event here and I ended up ordering the three beef enchiladas with rice and beans and the red gravy sauce. All in all the food was okay but it was not outstanding. Tex-Mex. There are many other local places where you really get that good. Tex-Mex taste. Also had a large margarita which again was very mediocre. I usually get a buzz off of a large Margarita anywhere but didn't get anything at all. Unfortunately, our wait person was not as attentive as she could have been, I know we had a large table of about 12 people, but the restaurant was not that busy. Stuff was forgotten or never refilled until asked, that kind of thing.

My favorite Mexican food spot (that's happens to be 3min from my apartment)! The food and service never fails! They have a restaurant upstairs and a bar downstairs. On the weekends they have karaoke so if you're not into loud noise while you're eating, avoid those times. The drinks are great and they are not light on the pours!

Angie was a great server for our table of 18! Great menu for all. I'm excited to go again and try their lunch specials!

Food was pretty good, service was good. The DJ blasting dance music was a little off. We couldn't get out of there fast enough...

My partner and I came here on a Saturday evening with no expectations and ended up having a wonderful time! We were seated fairly quickly even though we were told it would take 15-20 minutes (we originally went downstairs to the bar and got a text within five minutes). The vibes in the upper floor seating area were very lively! They had a DJ which eventually transitioned into live music and we really enjoyed it! There were a few large groups there (like 10+ people) so it seems like a great place that can accommodate large gatherings if needed. The vibe could be best described as a wedding reception. The food itself was also good. We enjoyed the salsa and queso. While I can't vouch for my partner's shrimp rellano, I can say that my cheese enchiladas were delicious and came with a huge helping of beans and rice. I was able to bring home enough leftovers for a second meal the next day! Overall, I liked the experience and would come back

When in Texas, you must Tex-Mex! I try not to miss an opportunity to get some Mole Enchiladas when possible and Dos Salsas did disappoint. At the Domain, I stopped in for an early dinner. There's plenty of seating and my server Devon (who shares my same name) was great! Dinner started with - you guessed it! - dos salsas! And ended with delicious fried ice cream, one of my favorite treats that I rarely get a chance to enjoy. If you're in the area, stop in and give them a try!

I ordered a queso for takeout here and it was a generous portion at a reasonable price so I was satisfied. Service was pretty friendly, and the queso had good flavor. The chips are very thin and weak so they tend to keep breaking, but it is tasty because they are fresh tortilla chips. I would definitely come back and try other dishes.

This restaurant is fabulous! We went for lunch and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The service was superb! The food portion was generous and was very good. The atmosphere was happy and welcoming. They have specials too! I highly recommend this restaurant!

Another fabulous meal at this location. The service was excellent. Our waitress was polite and very on top of refills and making sure everything we ordered was to our liking. We were seated as soon as we walked in and did not have to wait long for our food and it was nice a fresh. The house margaritas are the best!!! We will return on our next trip to Austin!

Been a regular here for a while but not after tonight. To begin, the drinks arrived late, the waitress forgot my tortillas and let my food get cold, and got my friend's order wrong. So wrong in fact that she is not allowed to eat pork for religious reasons and she gave her beans with pork. Additionally while we were eating, she took away our plates we were using and didn't even apologize once for any mistake she made through the night. Overall, it is a shame to have this experience but it is also disrespectful on how the waitress managed everything and didn't even seem to care at all. In fact she even chuckled when confronted with the mistake of giving the non pork eating person, pork to eat.

Usually, the service is great. Today I went and the waitress brought the wrong water and soda requests. I wanted jalapeno infused margarita. She brought it out but put the spice salt on my wife's bloody. She brought half the food out 30 mins after we got there. Then brought her only other table food. Then ours minus the rice and beans. We had to remind her, and she brought the wrong beans out. Not once did she say sorry. It was 1PM and it was not busy. The wife and daughter had fajitas for two. A massive plate but one flour tortilla and 3 corn, were brought when we asked for both. Clueless. To top it off the phone rang for 10 mins, and no one answered when I wanted to speak to the manager. I didn't want to embarrass the waitress, so I tried to call. The worst service I have ever seen

Good was great and our server Alanta was awesome!!! I would love to have her every time. Made sure we had everything we needed.

Waited almost 40 minutes on food after it was placed and our bartender wasn't really attentive at all. It was fairly busy so I can understand to an extent however after waiting awhile to even place an order and having to ask for chips and salsa after being served drinks is kinda annoying. We ended up asking to take it to go IF the food was ready to which they said sure and that took a while as well. In the meantime, the salsas were watery and not spicy much at all.

Dos Salsas has an interesting setup - there's a bar area on the bottom floor but the actual dining is up a pretty tall flight of stairs (it's also accessible by elevator). The dining area is large but a bit of a crowded setup - it honestly feels a bit more like a cafeteria than I expected. There's a stage at the front for live music but none happening while I was there for lunch. The free chips and salsa were appreciated but we didn't love either of them. The red salsa was pretty tomato-forward, while the green had a strong raw onion bite to it. The service was friendly and fast, and we were able to order soon after we got seated. I ordered the mole enchiladas with black beans. The sauce was quite good, hitting all the right mole notes without being excessively rich. The enchilada chicken was a little bit dry but not too bad. The black beans were exceptional and easily my favorite part of the meal. Overall, this seems like a decent TexMex place where you could reliably get a table most times - it's nice to have these spots in a city as busy as Austin.

Great atmosphere. Service at lunch was quick. Dos Salsas platter was excellent. Had 2 cheese enchiladas (added queso) with beef taco and guacamole.

My wife and I have found our new hang out! The food is great but the service is awesome. Izela is an amazing bartender and always takes great care of us. I highly recommend!!

Staying at a near by hotel and thought since this place was in walking distance it would be a good choice. I ordered the Parrillada which consisted of chicken, beef, 2 shrimp and spicy sausage. With charro beans and rice. Charro beans were the only thing flavorful. Spicy sausage was No Bueno and didn't even bother to finish it. If it wasn't for the lime I squeezed over the food it would have been bland. Never going back again. Wish I would have went somewhere else.

Omar was a great waiter. Definitely will recommend him. He went above and beyond in his service. Very polite and very happy personality. Will me coming back and asking for him.

Portions were very huge. The plate was the size of two of my heads. Rice and beans were tasty and flavorful. The avocado salsa had a nice kick to it. The barbacoa was good too, but just a little dry. My friend got the enchiladas, but he said all he could taste was just the corn tortilla and he couldn't taste any of the beef fajita. We went on a Sunday and it was very packed, so we understood if our waiter would take a while to get back to us, but it took us 2-3 times to get his attention. He would sometimes look in our direction then disappear for a while to the kitchen or something. Another table next to us who had a different waiter came after us and left earlier than us just because their waiter got their order and check to them immediately.

I had a fantastic experience at Dos Salsas. The atmosphere was inviting and the food was delicious. Our server Ben was was amazing, attentive, friendly and made out experience unforgettable. Will be coming back, thanks Ben !

I just left this place (Memorial Day). It was completely dead, which is great when you're wanting a quick dinner without a wait. I go inside and sit at the bar as I was alone. I sat there about 15 minutes, and no one came with a menu or ask me for a drink order. There were 2 bartenders extremely busy making drinks, and there were numerous waiters standing around near the entrance to the kitchen, I suspect because they were not busy. Instead of helping me at the bar when I'm sitting just a few feet from where they're standing, they continue standing there doing nothing. I leave. I go to the host stand to let them know I'm not getting any service at the bar. So they take me to a seat in the dining area. Same exact thing. I sat there about 15 minutes and no server ever came. So I went back to the host stand again asking if I need to move again to get service. The hostess said my server is "right there". They pointed to a girl sitting on the bench in the waiting area doing absolutely nothing. So I left without dinner. I can't believe what I experienced.

Great time! Had the Mango Margarita! Service great! Ambiance was great! Thanks Hilda!!!

Hilda was amazing! 10/10 service Drinks & food came out quick! Will be asking for her again!

I came here with a group during a work trip. First thing, this place is huge -- great for busy nights... not too long of a wait. They offer complimentary chips and salsa (ergo, dos salsas ). First off, service was great. Very attentive and answered all the questions that everyone at the table had. While the food wasn't bad, it wasn't too memorable. It was a little bland, tbh. Maybe Tex mex isn't for me. ‍

This was our first stop on our trip to Austin. We went on Christmas Eve so it wasn't busy at all. The place was decorated for the holidays and very clean and cute. Our waiter, Franco, was great and deserved more than 5 stars! Everyone was attentive and helpful and all the food was delicious. I'd recommend everything we had (especially the queso dos salsas and choco flan) and would definitely be regulars if we lived here.

Omar our server was attentive and amazing. Our food was delicious and we will definitely will be back when we come back to Austin.

We were randomly browsing on Yelp for a Tex-mex place and ended up here. We ordered a couple of things. One chimichanga and one burrito. The veggie burrito was filled with veggies, which were not very good in taste and the whole thing together didn't taste very good. The beans were also okay. Same with the chimichanga, very okay in taste. We also ordered a drink with light ice, but when we got it, it was filled with ice and we had to remove a plate full of ice cubes from it. Which brings me to the service. It's not great I think, worse than an average restaurant. Our server was quite rude which also affected our overall experience. The vibe of the place was good since they have live music and karaoke, but that after a point was also too loud.

We are on a small fun weekend staying near the domain and decided to try this restaurant as we had never been. It seems fairly new as it has only 3 locations as if now. I want to start with our waiter. He was training a new employee and was super friendly and helpful. He helped us choose drinks and was fast and friendly. I got a shredded chicken chimichanga and Shana got shrimp tacos. Mine was pretty good, good flavor and a good size, not small but not so big it was too much. Shana enjoyed the shrimp tacos but as a shrimp taco affinado they were not the best she has had in Austin but still good. The drinks were flavorful and large. It was a nice experience, large with a sitting/waiting area when you come in, then you go upstairs to eat. Overall it was good. Nothing overly great or awful about it.

Thank you Abigail for the great service and for your kindness very recommend I hope we get her next time we come again

Omar did a great job. Pechuga a La Crema was amazing. Good house margaritas. Would come back!

Drove out to Dos Salsas on recommendation from someone who lives in my home town and visits Austin occasionally. The rundown: - located up near the domain, this is a very big building but all of the restaurant seems to be upstairs? Unsure what's in the downstairs other than the entrance doors - the staff was very nice, and quick to help - best part of the visit! Our waitress even had a handheld to let us pay right with her - we started with chips, 2 salsas, a blue frozen margarita, and queso. The queso was good but we'd wished there was more - the food was okay, nothing super special. The plates came out hot and pretty fast. We both ordered the chicken enchiladas which were pretty standard chicken topped with queso as we requested. Overall this was a solid visit , nothing standout food-wise but a good meal at your average going out to eat price

The staff and cooks deserve all the praise. The chicken fajitas were delicious and came out quickly! Will definitely be coming back.

This place is a trap!!! Lol but I mean that in a good way! I was lured here, literally lured here by the smell of the chefs cheffing it up in the kitchen. You could smell the food from across the street and by street I mean the Domain because it's located right across the street off Burnet Rd. It's a 2 story building but the actual restaurant is upstairs. They have stairs and an elevator and a nice little waiting area downstairs. I only ordered drinks and YES they were delicious. I ordered the Dos Salsas which is named after the restaurant. I cannot remember the name of the other drink my better half ordered but it was delicious and we have pics to prove it lol. They also have a stage I'm guessing for live music and screen tvs for your viewing pleasures. Ofcourse their are a few cons but nothing major as it's my personal opinion. Although a wonderful establishment it felt more of a cafe type setting. The seats are pretty close to each other and offer no privacy....that's it. We're you expecting more? Lol no this place is awesome I will definitely be back to try out the food but so far so good

My server Hilda was fantastic! It's great to be at a place that provides good customer service! The manager checked in and I've got to say these suisa enchiladas are as delicious as the ones I got in north Texas. Will be back. High recommend! Oh and the charro beans are fabulous

I went to Dos Sala to spend my money and give a tip ,I was ignore by the host and the other man..I had to ask do we sit down ourselves they look dumbfounded . So we left... I HOPE THE MANAGER will see this and get their workers to be attentive, so disappointing we just left from there. I don't usually say negative things but this one takes the TACO......... I don't want to give them any stars. Keep Austin Beautiful & Organically Weird

As a San Antonio native, this place is pretty overpriced and mediocre for Tex-Mex, but a somewhat better alternative to many other places in Austin, particularly in the north area. Convenient to the Domain area, Dos Salsas is a chill Tex-Mex restaurant and their margaritas and fajitas (amongst other classic Tex-Mex plates) will hit the spot and fulfill your craving. Much better pricing than Valencia's Tex-Mex IN the Domain (only worth going to for happy hour, if even that). The fajitas are decent and the margs are pretty good. You get your typical chips and salsas when seated, and the service is pretty standard. They also have karaoke nights on weeknights sometimes. It can get pretty busy towards the end of the week, but it's a consistent spot for all your Tex-Mex cravings!

Good afternoon, I did speak to the manager since May 17th. He was very nice and apologized for the events that transpired which apparently are not an every Friday occurrence. He spoke to the DJ and staff as well. I wondered if maybe they could do DJ 7-12pm and karaoke 9-12? It was nice to hear he was having conversations about it and said he'd contact me with any other updates or changes. It was a frustrating experience but maybe after the bad/sad feelings, I might give it a try again but with my friends. My husband isn't convinced just yet. The guacamole enchiladas and Centenario were good choices in my opinion. During lunch the restaurant seemed friendly and the previous waitress, despite being new, was really good which led to the 2nd unfortunate experience. The elevators are also in great working condition and the restrooms were very clean. I have been to the Cedar Park and Georgetown locations which are my favorite but I live very close to the domain so I figured why not. Several coworkers really like the other locations but have not tried this one. So maybe we'll all try the domain again at some point or I'll cater for our firm because it was better than LT down the road. Have a good one!

Average Tex-mex with reasonable prices and good service. The fajita beef was thinly cut and slightly over cooked. Will come back when in the neighborhood but wouldn't necessarily seek it out

Excellent quesadillas! Really good red salsa and guacamole! Hot and fresh with tasty suiza sauce and red sauce!!!

The place is clean and the staff is attentive. They give you free chips and salsa, the green salsa is my fave! I got the taquitos appetizer and flautas lunch special with came with a tortilla soup starter. Nice views of the domain, and they have limited covered parking which is great.

Our waitress was friendly. It was a holiday, so everyone seemed a bit overwhelmed by the crowd. We waited about 15 minutes once we sat before getting water or were greeted. The food was alright! Nothing wrong with it, and everything was cooked well. Margarita was good too!

So, easy to get to, great tacos, the best barbacoa, and the best salsa! Great chicken flautas However...the chicken they use in the tortilla soup is a little too lean...

Hilda crushed our service! She always made sure we had what we needed, always very attentive! Ranch water was superb.

My husband and I found Dos Salsas a few months ago and now we go several times a week the food is phenomenal I have never had anything that wasn't amazing. Francisco is one of our bartenders and is amazing !!!! He makes the best drinks, super friendly and very attentive. I highly recommend.

Went on a Saturday DJ at the Bar. The service was horrible. They had ONE person doing everything attending to the customers and making the drinks. It took a long time for our drink order and we couldn't even order appetizers. Left and will NOT be coming back. Music and service were disappointing.
