Dolores Mitte in Berlin

I can wholeheartedly recommend Dolores in Mitte. The food is freshly prepared, the selection is large—you can practically choose your own selection. When you enter the shop, you usually have to wait in line because it's busy. I was there recently, and they only accepted card payments. The ambiance is functional; I would describe it as a snack bar, which doesn't encourage you to linger. If you want delicious food without any frills, this is the place for you.

The price goes up, but unfortunately the contents of the burritos are getting smaller. But they still taste good.

Unfortunately, the tacos are super thin and fall apart under all the toppings, so you have to eat them with a knife and fork. They were also cold overall. The burrito was lukewarm to cold, and the tortilla was obviously not reheated. For that price, I expect more.

Absolute disappointment! The burrito was tasteless, the ingredients seemed old and the meat was tough. The portion was tiny for the price – a disgrace! The staff seemed bored and unfriendly, and the wait was far too long even though there were hardly any guests there. I absolutely cannot recommend this store and will definitely not be coming back!

The food was really delicious. The service is rather mediocre. The cleanliness was really lacking. Tables are stuck and the toilets are one of the most disgusting things ever. All in all, rather lower middle.

Always super tasty and the prices are more than reasonable. You get very, very full! The Choriz Soy in particular is highly recommended. It can get noisy when it's full, but I never had to wait long for my food

La comida estaba bien El lugar estaba bastante limpio Muchas opciones para comprar una comida o personalizar su propio burrito / taco Estaba bien - no es el mejor burrito que he comido, pero era rápido y a un precio razonable.

Mehukas ja maukas avocado-burrito. Nopea ja ystävällinen palvelu. Erittäin hyvä hinta ja laatu -suhde. Pikaruokalounas, menisin uudestaan.

The food is relatively tasty. The beef in our burrito tasted like shredded goulash, but was still relatively tasty. The food is good. The price was okay, but the hygiene was not good at all. The tables are partially glued and there was a lot of leftover food under our table. We probably only mop once a day here. The toilet floor was also completely soaked and paper towels were lying everywhere. It is therefore ironic that the company asks customers to disinfect their hands using the disinfectant dispenser in the entrance. I'll probably order it next time.

The tacos are delicious, the service is fast, friendly and not expensive 👍🏽

The burritos were very tasty but you can only pay with a card.

Solid food, unfortunately the spicy food wasn't as spicy as hoped. And the prices are a bit high for plastic chairs and canteen flair...

Great food seems pretty close to what you would get in cali, the service is great.

Quite tasty but a bit small for €13.90

Ordered Wicked beef plus extra of guacamole. It was delicious! The bowl size is pretty fair to the price.

Buena oferta de comida mexicana. En mi opinión todo muy bueno, pero los burritos muy cargados para mi gusto. Demasiados elementos juntos, que desdibujaban el sabor final

If I could minus star the rude lady behind the counter I would.

Very friendly staff, quick service, nice food :)

Simple, nice restaurant for delicious Mexican street food specialties. The burrito was really tasty and the prices for the portion were okay too. Gladly again...

The portions are generous and the price can't be beat. Absolutely recommended!

To be honest it was the biggest burrito i ever had in my life. Really cool place with friendly staff. They ve got their own beer very recommended. So if you re very hungry this is your place!!!

I had no idea about how tasty a burrito can be

Unfortunately, the portions are getting smaller and smaller; today my take-away bowl wasn't even half full. Really outrageous

The food was good, just a bit bland. But the toilets are filthy and full of graffiti.

Ordered a bowl for take away, it was already very cold, the aesthetic was not too good and I didn't like the nachos.

The taste of the food is as original as in Mexico. In fact, we think these tacos were better than the ones in Tulum. Accordingly, the store was very full and visually not an eye-catcher. Nevertheless, from today on our only point of contact for authentic Mexican food.

The lady who ordered after me was given priority with number 69, then I came with 68. She must have made nice eyes for him. I'll never come back here. Tipping will then also be eliminated. Thursday, January 16, 2025, 7:20 p.m

Food: 5 stars for fast food Deduction because cash payment is not possible, and the atmosphere is not too nice. Staff doesn't speak German. Toilets take some getting used to, they're certainly supposed to look cool in terms of the scene, but they come across as a bit dingy. No paper towels. Often very crowded.

Well, I live nearby and have been here several times. The food is delicious, but the service I just had at the checkout cannot be surpassed in terms of impudence. Today I ordered a new dish that I can't pronounce. The rude service person asked me something, I then said, the things that look like three corners. He told me what they were called, I said, yes, those. I have difficulty hearing in only one ear and have great difficulty pronouncing things in foreign languages. I say, yes those. When I was paying, he wanted to know what they were called again so he could make fun of how badly I pronounced them. I find this behavior to be deeply discriminatory and extremely inappropriate towards people with a hearing impairment. I hope this will be reflected upon with the staff and will not happen again in the future.

Average food, cheap. A lot of people. Once is enough for me 👍🏻

Can’t go wrong with the spicy chicken burrito! Very filling and tasteful.

Tuvimos un sábado por la noche ocupado. Hay un mostrador para pedir comida para sentarse y llevar. Ambos tomamos burritos y una cerveza Delores. La comida era preciosa y el servicio fresco y rápido, buen ambiente y cerveza decente también!

I had a burrito and the nachos. The burrito was really tasty. You could choose everything you wanted from sauce to type of rice and everything. On average, you pay €10 for a burrito, but it fills you up quite a bit. I would go here again.

Love it <3 best burritos in the world

Super Delicious, was super crowded but food was great!

Got a quesadilla and a burrito to take away, the chipotle salsa was delicious, portion size good. Not the best there are but they don’t claim that either and it’s definitely good

Once one of my favorite shops, the quality is still top.... unfortunately a big thumbs down for the cashless society.

Service was very kind, if you eat meat I highly recommend the pork burrito.

No recommendation. Much too loud music 🎧, quite crowded 🫤 and at the same time no hygiene after the change of guests at the tables 🫣. During the ordering process, the person at the checkout is helpless and cannot help with questions. 😑 Hardly any choice of drinks other than the usual Coca brands. Food was soggy, too spicy and not particularly tasty. Afterwards we had a stomach ache. 🥴 Unfortunately not great.

As always, very tasty and nice. A must if you are in Mitte.

Very tasteful and filling portions. Went there 2 times in my 4 day trip. Also fast food serving and the prices are good.

I came here with a friend and I really liked it. The service has been good, they have recommended us and they have hit the nail on the head with everything. The house beer is very good. I recommend the spicy chicken burrito. Moira I fell in love with you!! Marry me!!

Exceptionally good burritos, at least for Germany. Unfortunately a bit grubby, but part of the atmosphere :)

Some of the better mexican food that I’ve had in germany. The portions are large and the flavors strong. The spice levels are not as strong as what I’m used to in the US - would get extra spicy next time.

As an American who’s had Californian mexican, it was pretty good! The staff was very nice and efficient!

I used to come here often, but I don't go here anymore. The reason for this is that the employees do not comply with the hygiene regulations. They leave the counter area with their gloves on to take a break. They then come back in with these without having changed them and use them to touch the food and place it in the burritos.

Food is good, service was ok and ambience is not that nice.

The burritos and bowls are delicious, as are the quesadillas, but I expected more. Only card payment possible. There are two toilets. Indoor and outdoor seating options.

Very good store. Burrito were very tasty. Recommended

Good value for money. Very filling Mexican food.

In my personal opinion, the speed of service and quality has declined over the years. Have been here many times for work lunches and dinner, but in the last year in my personal opinion both the service quality declined and the flavour as well.

I'm like this, they're too good, after the first burrito I had to get another one. Crepi l'avarizia 🌯

The vegetarian burritos and tacos are simply delicious. Again and again.

we tried Mexican food for the 1st time and it was delicious.... friendly staff.... affordable Price...

Dolores has a great offering that smells and tastes like Sol Cal fast food. The vegan offering is very pleasing. Unfortunately, there is not a vegan alternative for everything. Vegan burrito with chori soy was very tasty and so were the nachos. The dips were excellent. The quesadilla was not as expected and not as good as the burrito. The staff is friendly but everything seemed a bit hectic and disorganized. Unfortunately, only card payment is possible, which I think is a shame. What also bothers me is when it is not possible to order in the local language because no one speaks German when placing the order. Despite all my love for multi-culture and appreciation of internationality, I don't like that, even though I don't have a problem with the English language myself. What is also annoying is the uncleanliness to the power of ten. Nobody wipes the tables and with the flow of people you don't want to think about it. The dish return trolley is located directly next to a guest table without a boundary. This looks unsightly, is annoying and certainly not hygienic. The music was somehow inappropriate and not authentic and too loud. All in all, the ambience doesn't do justice to the delicious SoCal food on offer. To go might be okay, there's no other way. Really a shame.

... Mexican fast food, but very tasty... the shop itself is germy, the tables aren't wiped down, really disgusting... the staff who don't speak a word of German don't care at all... Conclusion: you have to don't have it!

Unfortunately not tasty for more than 7€…

Great place, love their food. But wish they could do better with the ratio of their burritos. Their bowls are super nice too. Love this place. However it feels a bit overpriced to have to pay extra for pickled onions, cilantro, and sour cream. While I understand that guac may come at an additional cost, the prices for these other toppings seem somewhat excessive.

Vine a cenar temprano, muchas opciones vegetarianas. Probamos el burrito y quesadilla. Servicio rápido, comida sabrosa, precios razonables.

I’m from California and was walking by and had to give this place a try. I had a make your own burrito. It was ok, but the tortilla needs to be heated up longer and I tried the spiciest sauce you could get here. The spicy level doesn’t even rate 2/10 back in California. It was still a good burrito though

The food wasn't so good this time. Quesadilla were burnt When choosing veggie, mostly just onion... not good

A good opportunity to have a quick snack 🤤.

Great amount, filling, and quick service. I don’t have a big hand but still

Very tasty food🌮 Unfortunately there are often misunderstandings with the orders, but you can return them and get a new one.

Very good shop, highly recommended!

I have been coming here for a long time, but in last 2 times i noticed the food amount has decreased a lot. Its a pity, that we are not becoming full anymore. Serving plates as bowls, and burritos lost the half of their size :(

Pasé aquí para ab burrito de la noche, muy contento de gran calidad y un buen precio para la zona. Buen tamaño también y me llenó completamente!

Very tasty and there are many options

Incredibly delicious food, however very crowded and hectic. Will I come again anyway? Definitely, the food is worth it.

To change a little from doner kebabs, buritos or bowls, well cooked and lots of different recipes. Very good for lunch on the go.

To celebrate 20 years they just went to ..... Order a fresh avocado burrito but sub Chipotle salsa for fresh tomato and when they hand you a bowl without the Chipotle and then argue with you that that's what you ordered ... Mitte was always greasier than the Cburg location and I've had my last burrito here with them in Mitte. 😥

The stressed-out workers at the counter are unfriendly and don't even answer questions. Too bad. With an attitude like that, I'd rather not come back.

I’ve been coming here for years. To me it’s the tastiest burrito and the service is great. I always make changes to my order and they didn’t get it wrong a single time!

Okayish Burritos, a lot of options to choose from, maybe too many. In general the quality is absolutely okay, but it's really nothing more than just another fast food standard supply. Especially the wrap around the ingredients was a bit stale and hard and cold.

Burritos good salad bowl ok tacos decent. Cheap and cheerful.

All people working in Dolores is super friendly! The four stars are because of two things: - Burritos aren't stuffed with a good portion of protein. The protein portion is usually the smallest. And the times I ordered a burrito without an ingredient (like for example, without salad) I just got a smaller burrito, as they didn't compensate the size with other ingredient. - Small thing, but the payments machine defaults you to leave a tip.

The service is so friendly, there's nothing to complain about. The food is okay so far. Pulled pork wasn't my thing but I think the chicken was pretty good. Portions are definitely sufficient. Toopings are not saved. You can eat if you like Mexican. I have no idea if it's authentic but it was okay for me.

We had buritos, a quesadilla and tacos. Everything was fresh and very good. Be careful of pickles that are spicy.

Burrito was OK, but nothing more. Despite being "spicy", it was hardly seasoned and the consistency of the content was strangely uniformly soft. Nevertheless, it is important that there is also Mexican fast food and it was pleasantly quick despite rush hour. Price was also okay for the size of the portion (quite large). I would give it another chance with a different dish.

Unfriendly staff, is the menu also available in German??

I was one of your first customers back then and I still love you more than anything!! But I think it's a shame, you can't order extras from the delivery service, like salsa, coriander, etc. I need at least 4 extra salsa per burrito

fresh and filling food for a good price but no toilet :(

Quick stop for some quite healthy food👌

I tried burritos, bowls, tacos and chips almost all the available options. It’s decent enough to fill the stomach. But not my favourite Mexican restaurant. Too much crowded. And eating area is not very clean.

Pretty good Mexican food, quite authentic I would say. Good to grab something on the go or to eat in. Always a lot going on in there. But the wait isn’t too long. Definitely recommend going to. It is quite expensive but in today’s economy still fine though. Been going here for a while from time to time and it has always been really good.

One of my favorite mexican fast foods in Berlin. This time, though, bowl was not fresh and nachos was full of oil... Update: good tacos, but avocado bowl has a tiny amount of avocado. Still, it's more tasty than my last experience.

Taco tortillas were too thin and fell apart immediately. Despite that the food was fantastic, and at €8 (€13 with a cola) you can't beat it. Very worth it. Next time a burrito or a bowl for sure though.

As an American, I was curious to see if this lived up to the claim of being California Mexican. And honestly, it wasn't too far off! The chips were not great, overcooked and a bit on the bland side. But the burrito (got the wicked beef) and the burrito bowl (got the naughty pork) were both really good. Great amount, super filling, fast service. The agua fresca was also super good and authentic.

Good burrito and a generous portion.

It was nice, but I didn’t really love it. Still, it’s a decent place overall and worth checking out.

very tasty food! Tastes like California!

Food is tasty but Attention card payments only. So if you belong to the class which has no cards - no service.

Super tasty burritos with a lot to choose from! Rarely have we had such a good price-performance ratio. Would come back at any time 😍

Unfortunately no cash payment possible. Prices too high.

Good value for money, certainly and a tasty vegetarian burrito went some way to explain why this is the only restaurant in Berlin my sister recommended. They have their own label beer ‘Dolores Cerveza Clara’ which isn’t half bad neither. Added bonus for the dance routine to Earth Wind & Fire performed by one of the kitchen staff.

I had a taco bowl to go. It kind of messed everything up in the box which was alright. It was quite a small portion and the proportions of the ingredients (salad, meat, cheese etc) felt a little bit off but all in all it was good.

Well, unfortunately the cheesy chicken was terrible. Only pulled pork was delicious! Burrito was really a lot but fell apart. Can't recommend! At least not for the price. A water 2.50???

Dolores offers a take on Mexican food that feels more like a nod to Chipotle than an authentic experience. While the flavors are decent, it’s clear they’ve tailored their menu to cater to a broader palate, resulting in a version of Mexican cuisine that lacks the depth and richness you might expect from a more traditional establishment. One of the main drawbacks is the portion size. The servings are surprisingly small, especially when considering the recent price hikes. It’s hard to justify the cost when you feel like you’re not getting much for your money. Additionally, the payment process leaves a bit to be desired. Even if you’re just picking up a quick bite, you’re nudged into selecting a tip, reminiscent of the tipping culture in the U.S. It’s a bit off-putting, especially in Berlin, where service workers are generally paid fairly. This push for tipping feels out of place and adds an unnecessary layer of guilt to what should be a simple transaction. Overall, while Dolores Mitte might scratch the itch for a quick and familiar meal, it falls short in value and authenticity.

Good, very good. There are also vegan and vegetarian options

Summary: disappointing just overwhelming mushy burrito with unbalanced flavor with friendly service at the counter; I asked for a recommendation, because I’m not an expert in „Mexican“ food and also not a big fan, but the high frequency of visitors made me want to try it: the recommendation was the wicked beef burrito Dishes (- negative / = ok / + positive): - Burrito wicked beef: beef was ok, unbalanced flavor overall with too much of everything making it a mushy „I don’t know what I am eating“ experience; took a little bit of spicy and that was the major flavor I left with = added extra guacamole on the side which was ok Service: + friendly service at the counter Price: + fair price for value for a big burrito; I’d prefer if they added a little love and balance the amount of ingredients so that a well-balanced umami flavor results Atmosphere: + easy fast food style
