BarFly's Review of Dingo's

Not hard to imagine a Dingo's outside every twenty-second century left-coast megamall brightly-lit, colorfully-decorated, family-friendly franchises serving up a vaguely-Mexican-themed cuisine and vaguely-dyke-themed nightlife.

It's possible, of course, for the average clientele, enjoying a microbrew on the benches dotting Hawthorne's still singular enterprise, to remain blissfully unaware of either, of course (presuming it's not Thursday's Lesbian Speed Dating night), until your kid inquires about the 'Priscilla Queen Of The ’Ritas!' cocktail. 

Long enough established to be a Hawthorne fixture, but service and food have run decidely downhill in the last couple of years.

No bagged chips

The one thing they need to change, the chips. They don't make their own, they serve Tostitos out of the bag. Come on Dingo's, you are a Mexican restaurant. Fry up your own chips please. I can eat bagged chips at home whenever I want. No sense in losing customers to Por Que No over something so easily solved. Your Jalapeno margaitas are bomb.

Eeet's OK

If I need an NoSmoke bar martini in upper Hawthorne,it's OK, chat up the bartenders if they aren't too busy. Food? Food? Not so much. I mean you got Zach's across the street, c'mon!

ridiculous...

So, I ordered a "build your own" nacho for takeout. It consisted of chips, cheese, steak, sour cream, and guacamole. I also ordered the lime chicken enchiladas. The server told me the total would be 27.50! When I asked her why it was so expensive, she snottily said that I had added a bunch of things to it and then dismissed me with an enraging flippant air that stunned my usual mouthy self into silent rage. I stiffed her on the tip, something I never do, and went on my irate way. Come to find out, they didn't even give me sour cream and guacamole! Yep, I paid 15 dollars for chips, cheese, and dry meat and terrible customer service. Won't be eating there again. Ever.

At least they're consistent

The food is mediocre and over-priced, the decor is boring and already dated, and the staff is generally inefficient and pointlessly rude. Go to the E-room (and eat at the mexi truck, across the street, near 33rd).

Possibly the worst mexican food ever

horrible horrible horrible. I have no doubt in my mind that everything on my plate came out of either a can, or a pre-frozen bag. I've had enough spanish rice a roni as a child to know when someone trys to pass it off as authentic, and setting it next to a pile of rosaritta beans doesnt a mexican dish make. And on top of that, the beer was even gnarly. Myself, and anyone i've met who has eaten there, vowed to never do it again.

YUM!

Food is kick-ass, drinks are aight, service is acceptable...and on a summer day, sitting on the sidewalk on their picnic tables eatin' tuna tacos w/ my favorite bull dykes just can't be beat! Breakfast burritos are delish as are their specials.

Usually lots of lesbians of all flavors for their admirers to gawk at too!

Nice drinks

The Tequila Sampler's were cool! This bar is fun, the food is good, the Margarita was good but needed a little more tartness. The samplers allowed you to drink plenty of good tequila and still handle the rest of the evening.

Good food, good drinks, nice crowd

Not a bad place to hang out. Very good drinks, poured with a generous hand, and the food portions are ample. Everyone is friendly and it isn't smoky. Thursdays is wall-to-wall women-who-like-women.
