Dos Amigos vs. Dos Primos

The time has come for the final verdict on this tasty little blog that's been a few weeks in the making.

...Dos Amigos vs. Dos Primos...

Dos Primos...
This joint's exterior is a little questionable looking but once you get inside, that's soon forgotten. It's a colorful place with a cute little bar and dining area... Small but it was quite the happening place when we went a few weeks ago. The whole gang joined - Katherine, Tyler, Michelle, Mark our producer and my date Jordan. We all ordered different things and the general consensus was all thumbs up. Chips and salsa were great. Service was friendly but a tad slow. I ordered an enchilada and a cup of tortilla soup. Both were great. The enchilada was especially delish! Chicken with Ranchero sauce.. Great! The tortilla soup was good - not the best I'd ever had but a great deal and a healthy portion for the price.

...Overall, my opinion is it's a good spot! The price is just a fraction higher than most mexican joints of it's kind in town but I think it was worth it. Another bonus: Nice bar with clearly posted daily drink specials and some really good mouth-watering tecate on tap... Not to mention the fab looking margaritas! I'll have to go another night to test the drinks.

Dos Amigos...
It's a cute place. I like the authentic mexican style of the sitting area in the entry and the general feel of the place. There is a little bar tucked away in there that looked pretty nice but I didn't make it through the saloon doors to check it out. Chips and salsa were sub-par to my taste buds. I'm not a fan of sweet salsa and this salsa was on the sweet side. The enchiladas were OK but the rest of the meal was uneventful for me. I'm not hard to please so I was a little disappointed but I like to give a place the benefit of the doubt. Maybe it was an off night... It comes highly recommended to me so I may have to give it another shot.

THE FINAL VERDICT...
DOS PRIMOS wins in my opinion! I want to go back and try a margarita and their chile rellenos, which are all the talk in KTAB's weather center. I was left with a great impression from the upbeat environment and fantastic flavor. Dos Amigos deserves a second chance for me but this battle has been fought and Dos Primos didn't need a second round.
