Great spot to catch up with a friend. I ordered the three tacos and traded out the rice and beans for salad. I also ordered the chips and salsa. The carnitas tacos were delicious. I’ll be back for those. The chips were freshly made and the salsa is a more pulp forward variety, which was ok, but not what I’ve come to prefer for salsa. There are gluten free menu options and vegetarian also. I paid about $30 with tip.
The staff were friendly and brought food pretty quickly.
Decor is flashy with a dios de muertos vibe. The chairs are not very comfortable – the metal variety. But the side it’s accessible. We were able to go on a Saturday afternoon without a reservation. It wasn’t too loud to chat at a regular volume.
You could bring kids here. Also be aware, If you park in the lot outside it can be about $9 for 2 hours. Get street parking if you can.

I went here for the first time last week. You order at the counter when you walk in. I ordered the enchiladas. They were excellent! They were like enchiladas in Mexico. The staff were friendly and the restaurant has a cool design. I’ll definitely be revisiting!

First time here. They are located inside a large building with other businesses. I do like the fact that everything is done at the register, so no settling the bill later or a server repeatedly checking on you working for a good tip. The food was fresh and tasty. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere felt like Mexico . I’ll come back again. It was pleasingly quiet. I actually like that the soccer match was on mute and really the only thing you heard was the staff interaction and the other customers. The Mahi Mahi tacos were good and the chips were really good and not out of some bag at the grocery store. I’ve never had carrots dipped in lime and chili sauce, but they were tasty!

Consistently flavorful and fresh-made food. Their burritos are delicious and hearty; love the barbacoa. They have housemade corn tortillas and crispy chips that are just right. I actually prefer to order at the counter then eat in peace so you’re not waiting for the check and receipts at the end of the meal. Friendly and prompt service. Clean.

Dos Hermanos is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Olympia! In the winter they often have pozole and it’s some of the best I’ve ever had. All of their food is delicious and everyone is so friendly.

This is an order at the counter and never get talked to again type of place but the way they charge should include full service. There were tons and tons of it was super strange, but the ambience is an open setting with other businesses and people shopping. We purchased chips and salsa for an appetizer, the chips were tooth breaking, yes I said that. My wife thought her tooth broke and she had swallowed it. But that didn’t happen. And the pain went away. We ordered the quesadilla and the smothered burrito, ate what we could and didn’t take home leftovers. The owners were friendly and nice. We tried to enjoy it, was just not for us.

Got the 3 taco platter and a pollo tamale. Was disappointed that the carnitas pork taco had pineapple on top which soaked into the meat. I am didn’t order taco al pastor which has pineapple. I was disappointed that the tamale and tacos were on the bland side. The refried beans and rice were delicious however. Just overall not enough spice for the meat. People were friendly but it was crawling outside with homeless. One scared me at the door. It was dark and raining so I don’t know if that was a factor. I would be willing to try a spicy dish but regular was too bland.

We had heard through the Newbuzz that this place had best tacos in WA state so we decided to try it out. Located in DT Olympia inside the 222 Market bldg. Cute enough. Order at counter then you sit down. To start, their menu prices are WAAAAY off the charts! Ok…we overlooked that for now. We ordered the taco platter (3 tacos) with rice and beans, 2 house margaritas and a quesadilla. GF doesn’t like the Mexican cheese so asked for different cheese instead. Only have mozzarella and they charged an extra $2 for it. OK… fine. Whatever. Prices are an issue but we’ll hold any further opinion for food and drinks.
The Margaritas were first to arrive. They are freshly made. Very tasty although glasses are bit small and lots of ice. The food took bit longer than expected considering its Mexican food but we assumed because of the fresh quality ingredients. First time the Tacos out came it had the Mexican cheese on it we didnt want. We had to send it back unfortunately. So while we waited instead dived into the quesadilla. There is no cheese on quesadilla (whaaaaaaat?). So no grill marks or crispiness you’d expect from a pressed q. Also they use shredded instead of grilled chicken which isn’t that great on a quesadilla in my opinion.
The saving grace were the tacos (once they came back) excellent, rich flavors and a delicious corn tortilla. Also fantastic rice and beans. All freshly made. That part was worth it but still… no cheese although they said they cooked it into the tortilla but we couldn’t find it despite looking very closely. Check for yourself in the pic. Do you see any cheese on the taco? What’s with the Where’s Waldo, find-the-cheese thing???
Honestly, this place is not worth the hype. You could do better at one of the many Mexican food trucks in the area. At least they put mozzarella or mex blend cheese on their entrees which is absolutely a staple of good Mexican food.
If you are in the mood for a finer Mexican dining experience take a trip to Montezuma’s in Tacoma (or Gig Harbor). It has all the same quality and flavors without the price, especially if you go during Happy Hour.

Our first out to eat since pandemic started. It was a lovely experience. Comfortable eating area. Top notch service. Friendly, kind and quick. We had fish tacos and chili verde. Perfect portion sizes. And both meals delicious. The hibiscus margarita is a definite recommend. You order at the counter, pay and then find a table for them to bring your food out. You also grab your own water from pitcher in corner. For us this was zero problem. But only mentioning in case this is issue for you. But staff was so courteous I am sure they would bring it for you. Overall no complaints. I definitely recommend. And will be going again.
