Camino Real Authentic Mexican

Met our daughter for a lunch date to catch up, the food was great and the server was fantastic

I debated about leaving this review but decided it needed to be said. Growing up, Camino was always a pretty reliable place to get good Mexican food. Prior to today’s visit, I had been 1 time in the last year and my family was underwhelmed with the service provided for the price paid during that visit. Regardless, today we decided to give the benefit of the doubt and try them again, hoping for a great experience. Instead, we got a worse experience than before- to the extent that I feel compelled to leave a review. 1st, We placed drink orders when seated. We were brought chips, queso etc, and we continued to wait for waters and coke. After 10 mins and a basket of chips, I relented and asked again for drinks. The server apologized and brought them out. No big deal I thought. Next, we ordered our meals- nachos, a chimichanga, and 2 sides of rice. We then proceeded to wait 40 MIN! for food that never came. We observed our server sitting in a booth on her phone for most of our visit and though she came by to offer refills, she never offered any update on our food until I again was forced to ask (after 40 mins) “so, uh…where’s the food”. She rushed to the back, then to the front, and was never seen by me again. No idea. We waited a few min longer, hoping the ship was about to be righted. Still no food. The final straw was seeing the guy next to us get his food within 5 min of being seated. We got up to leave and pay our tab for the queso and coke. The only reason I’m comfortable giving an extra star is because the owner/ manager did offer an apology at checkout and refused to allow us to pay for the queso and coke. I appreciated that. All restaurants have bad days. I hope this review is viewed by them as an opportunity to provide a better experience. I’m not often one to publicly blast a local business. I love small businesses; but 2 experiences like this back to back, and I have to wonder why there aren’t more negative reviews. Fortunately, as we all know, there’s no shortage of other options.

The service was very good I think the price is to high for the food but most places now days during this time of inflation so it's a decent place to go children friendly I think they try to do what they can do in today's world that is pretty good Kid-friendliness: I had Three children with me it wasn't any problem there at all Wheelchair accessibility: My friend is in a wheelchair we had no problems going in or coming out or during the eating either pretty good all the way around for Wheelchair accessible

The best in Dickson hands down. And Maria is more than amazing

Asked for shrimp but got chicken otherwise a very good restaurant. Loved the cheese dip and chips. Flan was great. There were several gluten free options.
