I recently had the pleasure of dining at Dos Carlito's Restaurant & Tequila Bar, and let me just say, it was an absolute delight from start to finish! First and foremost, the food was simply incredible. The enchiladas were a true standout, bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. And don't even get me started on the chicken tacos - they were like a fiesta in my mouth! Each bite was a delicious explosion of taste that left me craving more. But it wasn't just the food that impressed me; the service was exceptional as well. Our waiter, Eri, was incredibly attentive and really went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed. His friendly demeanor and professionalism truly enhanced our dining experience. Now, onto the ambiance. The restaurant's interior exuded an authentic charm that instantly transported me to the heart of Mexico. However, what really stole the show for me was dining outdoors on the patio. The ambiance was simply unbeatable, especially on a beautiful day. It was the perfect setting to enjoy a meal with friends and soak up the sunshine. If I had to nitpick one thing, it would be the sautéed veggie tostada. While the flavors were delicious, I couldn't help but notice that the veggies were a bit on the raw side. However, this small hiccup did little to detract from an otherwise stellar dining experience. Overall, Dos Carlitos Restaurant & Tequila Bar exceeded all of my expectations. From the mouthwatering food to the impeccable service, it's clear that this is a gem of a restaurant that shouldn't be missed. I can't wait to return and indulge in more of their delectable dishes!

Enjoyed our dinner at DCR. Food was excellent. Service a bit slow. I had the Chicken Quesada and it was nicely presented, a good portion, and yummy

A fun find. We lucked into finding Dos Carlitos while staying in Santa Ynez. They have a really good size menu from which to choose. I'd go back.

BEST MEXICAN FOOD I HAVE EVER HAD! This restaurant was so good. I have never had a burrito this amazing in my life. Also, the margarita I got was SO strong it knocked me on my butt. In a good way. 10/10 absolutely delicious.

The shrimp enchiladas = one of the best meals I've EVER had!
We sat at a cozy table next to the fireplace. Ambiance was romantic and comfortable.
Cloth napkin Mexican food at it's finest! Yum yum!

Been here a couple times for dinner. It's really good. The only down side isn they don't take reservations, and the few times we've come we've had pretty big parties, so we've had to wait quite a while. But it's always been worth it!

I wish the server was friendlier but the food was fantastic and he was great with the service, just not real personable.

Best Mexican food in the Valley, even rivals my favorite in SB county, Los Agaves. My go to is a house margarita and the chicken burrito asado. A must have if in the area!

What a surprise to find this absolute beautiful gem of a restaurant in santa Ynez. Me and my wife were crusing around between buelton and solvang starving but everything seemed closed until we looked up this restaurant. Just by looking at the exterior I was already amazed. I'm not usually impressed, but surely this place would have to be special. Upon entering, we were greeted and seated shortly followed by a gentleman who promptly delivered our drinks with chips, salsa and black beans. Our sitting locations were perfectly spaced where we never felt intruded or close to anyone, the menu was not big only a page however the food was very delicious given time and form to perfect and balance taste in the meals. I ordered the burrito asado and my wife ordered the tacos al pastor, we both were surprised with the hearty and generous servings and extremely impressed with the taco al pastor due to the tortillas being so delicious and thick. One of the things that also caught us by surprise was how we never once had to ask for a refill to our drinks the gentleman was always checking up on our drinks. The interior was also a very nice all in all I will be recommending this place to everyone i can and look forward to coming back

We LOVE dos carlitos! Been coming here for years, whenever we pass through Santa Ynez. We even visited two days in a row this past weekend.... They have amazing salsa, to die for margaritas (Cadillac, baby!), food, and service.

I always get their two item combo: crispy chicken taco, cheese enchilada, and their caesar salad. It's soooo good, fresh, and flavorful! You won't be disappointed.

Carlitos has the BEST steak burrito i have EVER had in my life. No joke. Totally worth the $23 dollars. It was delicious, giant (ate half at Carlitos and took the rest to go), generous on the guac and sour cream and beautifully platted. Bonus points: it reheats well in the microwave.
The service was exceptional. The server, the runner, the hostess were all very pleasant, had good recommendations from the menu.
10/10 will be returning to Carlitos!

Santa Ines is adorable and the wine bar across the street was a great pre-dinner spot.
Do yourself and your taste buds a favor and visit Carlitos and Santa Ines for a fantastic meal, atmosphere, quick and dedicated to their craft chefs.
