Very disappointed. We looked at the menu online and were so excited to eat here. We get inside and the menu only has 5 main entrees and no kids menu as stated online. We didn't stay, the food may have been great but not enough choices for us and no kids meals for our toddler.

We tried this place because it was close to the Outlet Mall in Simpsonville. It was a charming atmosphere, the service was wonderful and super friendly, and the food was delicious. Highly recommend!!

An absolute must! The food is epic - get the ramen and flan for sure. The team was so friendly and helpful. You can’t go wrong!

We really wanted to love Dos Mundos. The concept and plating were beautiful, but overall most dishes felt like they were just one ingredient away from greatness.
We started with the corn ribs, wings (half Viet Honey, half Smokey Anticuchos), and lomo tartare. The corn ribs were good, nicely cooked but just missing a bit of spice or heat to make them pop. The wings were flavorful on the outside, but the seasoning didn’t penetrate past the skin. The lomo tartare’s crispy rice base was too thick, which ended up muting the flavors of the beef rather than complementing them.
For entrées, the NY strip was cooked perfectly with a great sear and temperature, but the chimichurri felt like it was missing something, maybe an umami or acid note to tie it together. The ceviche Nikkei was fresh and nicely presented, but it tasted like it needed more time to marinate. Letting it sit in the sauce for a few minutes before eating helped develop the flavor.
The cocktails were solid. The Lychee Martini leaned too sweet for my taste, but the Summer in Saigon was well balanced and refreshing.
Service was polite but indifferent. Our server mostly just dropped the plates off without much explanation about the dishes or the concept. The restaurant was quiet when we arrived, a few people at the bar, mostly empty until around 8 PM. The menu was surprisingly limited, and when I asked if it was seasonal, I was told it wasn’t, which was unexpected for a concept-driven spot like this.
Also, our bill included a “tourism tax” (didn’t realize Simpsonville was a tourist destination, color me surprised) and a credit card fee.
Overall, Dos Mundos has great potential and beautiful presentation, but most dishes just need a small flavor tweak or extra touch and a little more attention to the overall guest experience to reach the next level.

Visited this evening for the first time and loved our experience! Appetizers, entrees, cocktails, and desserts were all so very tasty. The service was first class. Shelby county, this is a great restaurant! We will be back!
Udon and Rice dishes were fantastic, and the plantains and bau appetizer were great as well. Good beer/wine selection too. I would try a signature cocktail next time for sure. Several tofu opinions for vegetarians. Our server Melanie was so helpful in explaining the menu and helping us choose some delicious sauces to go with our food.
I took my mom here to Celebrate my birthday, on a Google recommendation. The food was kinda over priced for basically fried rice. The wait was really to long for our food. The kicker was the pompous behavior of a friend of the staff. Loud cursing, no respect for the patrons or the owners.

A great addition to Shelby County. Food is excellent and diverse…something for everyone. The service was top notch, even with a full dining room.

It’s an atmosphere one can’t forgot when tasting their delicious food, the sound of the bartender making another’s cocktail. The smell of their Salmon Yakitori is sweet and light and it is filling if you eat all 4 skewers yourself! HA! Best place for a nice dinner such as an anniversary, or a first date! Will recommend to those passing thru because it is an unforgettable! 10/10 guys!
