Where to begin...ok first lets discuss the service here. Jolee, I believe was her name, was AMAZING! She was so friendly, upbeat and positive. Her bubbliness just exuded from her like sunshine! She was sweet and so helpful. So was fairly new to the area, so when we had questions about things here, she made sure to get us accurate answers, not just tell us something to be saying something. For being new to Atlanta, she had that down home southern hospitality down pat. Incredible server and made excellent recommendations. Which leads me to the food....I was a bit skeptical when reading that it was a Tex-Mex/Cajun flair type of place. I wasn't quite sure how I felt about combining the two...however, I was pleasantly surprised. We decided to try two very unique entrees so we could each try them.We had the Cast Iron Skillet Blackened Chicken with the red beans and rice and the veggies....and let me just say...absolute perfection! The chicken was sooo tender, and juicy and flavorful and cooked with love. I am VERY VERY picky about chicken and this one had me hooked. The veggies were outstanding and of course the red beans and rice were amazing as well. The second entree we ordered were the house enchiladas with the red house gravy- we chose to have the cheese enchiladas. Oh my! The house sauce/gravy that they put on their red enchiladas is bursting with flavor, not too spicy with just a nice kick. We also ordered the guacamole which was very good as well. The chips and salsa came complimentary with the meal- they were wonderful also. I know we are in Georgia, but the sweet tea here is other level- just the right amount of sweetness with a fresh taste. Loved it!The place itself had a nice atmosphere and setting and was not a crowded space, so you didn't feel like you were sitting on top of the other guests. It wasn't extraordinary by any means, but it was nice.If you are ever in Downtown ATL- head on over to Dos Bocas and ask for Jolee, she was the icing on the cake here. We will DEFINITELY come back.

Sat on the second floor bar on 9/18/24 around 5:20p. Bartender could have cared less about patrons. He was huddled in a far corner on his phone. I have to literally yell down the bar 3-4 times to get his attention off his phone. You are at work. Be at work. Had chicken tinga tacos. They were very bland. I would honestly rather eat at Taco Bell.

Would not go back. Don't recommend anyone do so. 1. Arrival get sent upstairs only to find upstairs closed two hours before closing time. Not busy. 2. Dive bar vibes on full display at premium prices. 3. Food took 30 minutes to arrive and was wrong. 4. Took another 12 to get plate out and still incorrect. 5. Tried to make it right by finding the server who was possibly a bit stretched but completely uncaring. Her solution was to take off what was incorrectly brought out the first time (didn't order it) and take off the incorrect second order. 6. Tried to order dessert but after waiting another 15 minutes still nothing. It was not busy. This is poor service and management. Not withstanding the food itself was at best a 3 of 5.

Interesting menu of Cajun and Tex mex - we enjoyed the food and the wide selection of drinks. It's a nice place after going to near by attractions of Aquarium and Coca Cola world

Came to dos bocas as a large group and we had a pleasant experience. Our waitress was very attentive and brought out everything we asked for in a timely fashion. The restaurant was clean and in a great location. The food was pretty good, once I decided what I actually wanted to eat. The bayou shrimp were hot, crispy, and flavorful. The fajitas were pretty good. They were not very hot but the flavor was pretty good. Overall, a pleasant experience

We went based on a recommendation from Embassy Suites. Despite what looked like small crowds, we were directed to bar seating as the only available option. The cocktails are awesome. I-10 traffic jam was perfect. Garish with grapefruit to complement the flavors instead of like, and it would be genius. The chips and salsa are some of the best we have ever had. In terms of entrees, I ordered the cast iron catfish. It was not served in cast iron and did not have a hard sear. It was also missing the red beans from the menu. The shrimp etoufee was fine. The server did not check on us once. We had to beg for our check then wait 10+ minutes for it to be processed. I am sure the food would have been rated better had the service and presentation been as advertised.

Dos Bocas is located inside/adjacent to the Hilton Garden Inn, which across the street from the College Hall of Fame and Olympuc Park.It is not either a Tex-Mex or a Cajun restaurant. Even if they say they are... When you are from there, you know what Tex-Mex tastes like. Maybe they grew up on the Stateline between Houston and NOLA? That will screw you up!Anyway, I had the chicken Enchiladas Verdes with rice and charro beans. It was actually good. However, the Enchiladas needed an actual Verdes sauce on top, and the rice was a tad bit dry. Beans tasted fine.The chips were fresh even if they did come out of a big bag into a hot box. The salsa was about the only Tex-mex about the meal. It was outstanding. It's not overly spicy at all.The bartender was on point and handmade the margarita to perfection.I want to give it 3.5 stars as its worth going back to, and it doesn't suck, but know before you go in what you are getting. It's bar food that wants to be a big restaurant.

Nice casual atmosphere and very convenient to the Hilton. My son really enjoyed the complimentary chips. The service was amazing. Jo was so sweet and really provided great service. The manager Salvador made sure everything was right with our meal. I would recommend stopping in!
