Review Los Dos Amigos - Salem

Good Mexican food. Old school typical decor. Good service. Plenty of parking. Salsa is tasty and just right spice level. I enjoyed my food, large portions, quality ingredients, well prepared. Nice bar and cocktails.

This used to be (4 years ago) a regular place to go. This time, I was just saddened. Service was good as always...when we got to the table. The food however.....clearly needs some help, maybe it's what you order. We got dinner combinations at $16.50 - $18 (the most cost effective item we found) and it's run of the mill Americanized- microwaved mexi food. My tostada was good but that's hard to mess up. My enchilada had almost no sauce and super covered with cheese. Nothing had spice or flavor to it and the rice was dry and lackluster. The combo for my daughter was bland and greasy (she chose the beef taco combo) and, the other half got ground beef enchilada and taco combo....again; no flavor or sauce. Then we get the bill and there is a service fee!!! Seriously?! I would MAYBE get a fee for say a party of 10 or more but, there was 3 of us and no children. Charging that will also effect the tip left behind. Overall, we will not be going back nor do I recommend.

I’m going to start this by saying I love food. I am not a picky eater, and I don’t necessarily have super high expectations. If it’s good, I’m eating it. My boyfriend and I moved to Salem about a year ago and have been looking for “the one” when it comes to Mexican food. This was the next place on our list. It had good reviews and was close to our house. We were seated quickly, and our server was right there to take our drink and dinner order. Things were looking up! When our food came, I can’t even explain the disappointment. I ordered the pollo a la Diabla, and my chicken was so over cooked and hard that I couldn’t swallow it without it hurting my throat. Even at this point, I kept trying to like it. The red sauce tasted like ketchup, and wasn’t spicy. My boyfriend got the steak and shrimp fajitas and was disappointed in the lack of flavor. He didn’t finish his meal and he always finishes his meal. To top it off, when we got the check, there was a service fee of $1.85 just to use my debit card. A service fee? Like really? I haven’t seen one of those in years. I felt so horrible for convincing my boyfriend to go out to dinner and this was what we got. A $70 meal that we barely ate because it was gross. We will not be coming back. Would never recommend this place to anyone who loves Mexican food.

I ordered the sopes de asada and man I did expect the portion to look like this. 🔥 the food was on point. Fresh ingredients. The fried ice cream is better than all of the other restaurants here in Marion Polk County. It hasn’t beaten Mexico yet. 😂

Came here for my pregnant cravings. Service was great!! And people super friendly! It was good mexican food, and their beans 😍 .. I'd come here again. Next time we'll bring all the family. Keep it up!

They are super great best food so far great perfect service i love it here!!!! We came from Portland to eat here!!!

I was pleasantly surprised. I had stopped going here awhile back but decided to give it another chance and I'm glad I did. They have a 2 for $30 lunch menu that I thought was reasonable. The food was fantastic. My only disappointment was the kids drinks are overpriced. They were either $3.50 or $3.75 each. Adding a maschiano cherry doesn't increase apple juice to that price point in my opinion.

Love the molcajete! Closest thing to the best I have ever had at El Barracuda in Puerto Vallarta! AMAZING!
