My spouse and I visited Dos Caminos Times Square on a Sunday
afternoon in mid-January 2020. We had tickets to a Broadway show nearby, and
Dos Caminos provided a convenient location close to the theatre. This location
of Dos Caminos is open daily for lunch, dinner, drinks, and late night. Guests
can book a spot using the online Open Table reservation system.
Dos Caminos has additional Manhattan locations including the
Meatpacking District (we dined there in October 2011; see our separate review),
SoHo, and Park Avenue. Dos Caminos is part of the BR Guest Hospitality Group/Landry’s
Restaurants, which also includes the Atlantic Grill, Bills Bar & Burger (we
visited the Downtown location in July 2016), Blue Fin (we dined there in
September 2016; see our separate review), Blue Water Grill, Strip House, and
Troy. BR restaurants are located in New York, Pittsburgh, Las Vegas, and
Chicago.
Dos Caminos occupies a corner location in Times Square on
the ground floor of the W Hotel at the intersection of Broadway and 47th
Street. The restaurant offers seating on both the window-filled street level
(at the bar, at high-top tables, at a high-top bar rail, or at tables that
share a banquette on one side) or in the basement (where there is a large bar,
tables and booths, and casual lounge seating groupings).
Dos Caminos serves Mexican cuisine. As a starter, we shared
the Tlacoyos, a sort of “Mexican Hot Pocket” of masa cakes stuffed with refried
beans and cheese and topped with crema, cheese, and shredded beef. For our main
courses, we ordered the Pork Belly Yucatan (yummy pork belly plated with
pickled red onions, cauliflower, mole, and tasty pineapple butter) and the Dos
Enchiladas (corn tortillas filled with chicken and topped with two sauces [mole
and salsa verde] with a side of black beans).
We enjoyed our meal at Dos Caminos; it is one of the better dining
options in the immediate Times Square area.
