Dos Reales Mexican - Champaign

Our friend Mrs. Velasquez raved about the restaurant, mentioning the generous portions, friendly staff, and cleanliness. She visited with her family to celebrate her niece's graduation from the University of Illinois.

This restaurant truly deserves all five stars. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the Fajita Salad and it was a large portion of flavorful ingredients. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, the chicken was tender, and the rice was mixed with an amazing cheese sauce. And to top it off, my generous salad was under $10! Incredible food for an incredible price. The service was outstanding as well. We arrived just before 3PM, when the lunch specials end. Our waiter kindly allowed us to still order from the lunch menu, which we greatly appreciated. We were also treated to complimentary chips and salsa (2 types) right away. The waiter not only refilled our drinks, but also brought more salsa without us having to ask. I've never been to a Mexican restaurant where they refill the salsa before. I definitely want to return to this restaurant. Highly recommended!

Staff is great. They work hard. Food is above average to excellent. Shredded chicken delicious. Ground beef tasteless. Jalapeños outstanding. Drinks just ok.

We are new in town and wanted Mexican food. The atmosphere was lovely and we were seated right away. There was light Latin music playing in the background and the servers were all dressed in white button-down shirts with black pants, giving off a very professional vibe. Our waiter was knowledgeable and accommodating. The food was delicious, with generous portions. I ordered the fajita burrito and my husband ordered fajita tacos, both of which were seasoned perfectly. At the table next to us, the wait staff sang a happy birthday song in Spanish. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant.

Great place for really good Mexican cuisine! The service was attentive and thorough. The food portions were generous and flavorful. We had a combination of things pork, tacos, the Acapulco a kind of mixed plate, and the guacamole (this was more of an avocado dip than traditional guacamole). We went during lunch on a Sunday and it was relatively full. We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the early spring sunshine. Their margarita was tasty too. Great place outside of downtown Champaign.
