Dos Toros TaqueriaC+Worth Trying
64 Court St, Brooklyn, NY 11201
· Mexican restaurant, Burrito restaurant, Taco restaurant
· 4.5/5 Google (1105 reviews)
Delivery · Takeout
Fast-casual Mission-style burritos and bowls with standout staff hospitality; tasty and efficient for downtown lunches but occasional service lapses and delivery issues mean dine-in or pickup is safest.
Why it gets a C+ for overall quality
Dos Toros Taqueria delivers solid fast-casual execution with standout friendly service and reliable burrito and bowl quality, but inconsistent execution with tacos and wet burritos prevents a higher grade. The downtown location offers convenient, practical dining rather than destination appeal, making it a solid neighborhood choice for quick, customizable meals rather than a standout regional destination.
Restaurant Summary
This downtown spot leans fast and friendly, drawing courthouse crowds and office regulars who want a quick, customizable burrito or bowl. Service gets shouted out by name, with one guest saying the team was warm and genuinely helpful at the counter. The cooking sticks to Mission-style comfort: steamed tortillas, melty cheese, and your pick of proteins, beans, salsa, and add-ons. The approach is classic and satisfying rather than flashy, suiting diners who value quick customization and consistent flavors. Queso and habanero salsa earn kudos, while tacos can suffer in transit—best eaten promptly. Families should find it easy for kids thanks to simple bowls, tacos, and quesadillas. You can dial back heat, skip rice, or stick to chicken and cheese. No explicit kids menu noted, but the build-your-own format makes sharing and picky orders straightforward.
