This was not my first time at Dos Locos and it won’t be by last. The evening started by taking 2 friends to enjoy a dinner out in downtown Rehoboth Beach.
I chose Dos Locos because it is a casual restaurant and my husband was dying for stonegrilled scallops.
As we arrived my friend said to her husband “let me sit across from Gloria…we are going to talk about fashion and jewelry….haha. That set the tone for laughter and a really fun meal to be enjoyed with close friends.
Dos Locos is located at 208 Rehoboth Avenue. Tel. 302-227-3353. Website? www.doslocos.com. The restaurant has a full size bar on one side and booths and tables on another. Even a private room is available for parties.
Alex was our server and he was really so attentive, as usual. Gosh we talked and talked….chips and salsa always at the table.
A few shots of tequila, a martini, and a margarita came to the table. The Margarita was freshly made; no mix there. It went so smoothly that another had to be ordered.
Some ordered from the stonegrill menu. Stonegrilling is very social. A stone is brought to your table and it is heated at about 700 degrees. You will be doing the cooking. All meat or seafood arrives raw. You can personalize it by cooking it rare, medium or well. When you cook on these stones the food is seared with all the natural juices inside. Very healthy; no oils and fats are included; just rubs and dipping sauces. All dishes came with a salad or chef’s side.
The Scallops.
The Scallops and Steak.
Another entree was the Steak Quesadilla which was grilled steak with melted cheese and a choice of Vallarta sauce which is a tomato sauce or the Santa Fe with jalapenos. She ordered the Santa Fe….Que bueno!!
I decided on Steak Fajitas. I love making my own. Temperature? Medium rare. It was a good size entre and it really hit the spot. Delicioso!!
As I looked at the table I thought it looked fun. Rice, beans, salsa, and dips!! Nothing else was needed.
It was such a nice evening…..Dos Locos has Happy Hour, specials pretty much every night of the week….they are also on Facebook.
Note: Dos Locos also offers a Gluten Free Menu
Gracias Amigos…Hasta Luego…

Tantos anos este restaurante ha estado en nuestra playa y que extrano que nunca lo habia visitado anteriormente. En una semana he ido 3 veces.
Oh, excuse me. I got caught into my Spanish. I was just thinking that this restaurant has been in our beach for so long and I had never paid them a visit. I don’t even know why. This past week I have gone 3 times. I actually found a waiter that I knew, Alex, who is working at Dos Locos and he took care of my family with his usual friendly disposition.
Dos Locos is located at 208 Rehoboth Ave., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. is 302-227-3353. Websited? www.doslocos.com.
First of all, I have to congratulate them for having a Gluten Free Menu. So exciting it is to find so many restaurants in our coastal area having this menu for the customers that have a gluten allergy.
The first night I went I only got a couple of pictures because I forgot to charge the battery. In the back of my mind I knew that I would be coming back to try one of the stonegrill meals.
Remember my old partner in crime, Debbie? Well, she was there with me again. Catching up after not seeing each other for quite some time. And, she asked me; what do you want me to order? It really did not matter as long as one of us had the stonegrill meal.
We took our time in ordering because we were bla, bla, bla, and more bla. Taking a look at the restaurant I want to let you know that it was very comfortable, casual and relaxing. A nice side bar area on one side; on the other, side booths and single tables were available. The restaurant also had another room in the back. It was crowded. It is a restaurant that welcomes everyone.
Our waiter brought us some tortilla chips and salsa. The chips were warm and a little salty; perfect. The sauce? I would have put more cilantro and a bit of lime juice.
Debbie decided to have the beef fajitas; hold the beans, please. Guacamole? Of course. I had that dish the other night and mine was good. Debbie really enjoyed hers today, as well.
Stonegrilling is done on individual stones that are over 700 degrees. What’s good about it? It sears the food at high temperatures, therefore, all natural juices are contained. It is healthy because there are no oils; the meats; so tender.
I chose a combination of Angus beef filet and shrimp. You can choose rub and sauces, but to tell you the truth I forgot about it and was not sure how it was going to taste.
When the stone was brought in, it was so hot; no wonder they say the stonegrilling is not for children. It looked beautiful.
Then, I followed the directions and turned over the food so it would cook on the other side. I cut and enjoyed a great lunch. I asked for a side salad. You had the choice of salad or rice. The taste of the beef was juicy and I must admit that I did not miss any rub or other seasoning. The shrimp were large and cooking them over the stone was perfect.
Dos Locos has a retail shop right next door. It is a Gallery. In it they have t-shirts, pick up souvenirs, plaques, hot sauces, and salsas.
They also carry the line of candy wrapper handbags. Popular and very interesting. Check that website www.nahuiollin.com.
It was already about 4:30 p.m. Long lunch even though it did not seem so. In the past I have said that sharing a meal with a friend is always….priceless.
Note: Dos Locos opens daily at 11:30 a.m. Check the website www.doslocos.com because they have so many specials and even Karaoke at 9:00 p.m. on Monday and Saturday evenings.
Hasta luego…..nos vemos……
