La Dos Gringas

Me and my adult kiddos/foodies were looking for a place to have a huge birthday meal. I didn't want to drive all the way to Albuquerque today, we just got back from a few days at the butte, so we yelped for a place in Belen. I've been to La dos gringas once before about 5 years ago when it first opened. I wasn't impressed then because I think they were still trying to get things together idk but anyways I seen that they have an 11 ounce burger! That's huge especially when I can upsize to a double! The waitress was really nice and she told us what was good on the menu. She said "everything", and so we first ordered their holy guacamole! I love good guacamole and this was really good. I did add just a little salt though. Complimentary chips and salsa are always welcome and their salsa is really good too. Has just enough bite but not over the top hot. My son's atuffed sopapilla came out and it was huge and served with an additional two sopapillas on the side! My daughter had green chile cheese fries and the portion was small and they cost $10, the green chile is good with a little heat. Next our double hub city burgers came out and they were big but I don't think they were 22 ounces big. Small portion of fries too for a $20 burger, after the extra beef patty was added. The red chile was good but not hot. We also ordered two of the fluffiest sopapillas I've ever had. Soaked them in honey, they were great. $83 for 3 people. But that's with extra beef Pattie's on two plates and the holy guacamole appetizer which is $10. Overall I think the food was delicious but a little expensive for what you get. I'd come back to eat here no problem.

Came here after flying into Belen Regional airport...The food is good; everything is extra spicy. There's a lot to choose from!

I had the green chile stew with a sopapilla. The potatoes were roasted prior and the chile was hot. The sopapilla was crusty and I loved it all. My companion had chicken tenders and fries. Both were crispy and met with her approval. Btw, the waitstaff are very friendly and accommodating.

Best food I have found in Belen. Delicious, great service, great prices! We will be back

Used to be good. Too expensive! $50.00 for two people with iced tea and no desert. Will not go back.

Called ahead to order Sopapillas 2 dozen, drove across town only to be told 5 minutes after I arrived that the kitchen said NO! They should have told me that before they took my order! Just arrived from CA, not a good welcome La Dos Gringas!

Wow, what a great place to eat. The service was top notch and so was the food. The tamales were fantastic and when you get here save room for the fresh sopas. Salsa and chips started off the meal. Quick service. Will be back.

Good Mexican food. Clean and nice atmosphere. I've had taco salad and beef tacos. I really liked the salad as I'm not a big spicy girl. Husband has had combination plate and Indian taco. All very good. FYI there's no alcohol. Service was ok.

We haven't visited La Dos Gringas since before Covid. Before Covid, it was decent, not wonderful. Last night, it was really nice! The greeter/seater person was cheerful, friendly, prompt, informative. The wait person for our table was considerate, attentive, friendly. We both had the Chile Relleno plates. The food was very good, the calabacitas were the best I've had in Valencia County. The sopas were fresh, puffy, not at all greasy. It was a real treat!

Over priced for Belen and the food isn't anything special.I wish Belen would get better restaurants.
