Which one? I guess there's more than one Dos Tacos in Seoul, pick any one you like best. I'm not sure how many Chois Tacos there are. I've only been to the one in Sinchon. Git r done.

For cheap burritos, I prefer Choi's tacos. But Dos Tacos is good and they have more variety.

On The Border is pricier, but simply the best Mexican (TexMex) food in Korea and deserves a spot of it's own in the poll. Chili's isn't even Mexican food.

On the Border: best food & best margaritas, with primo tequila if you like, don't know how you can even compare the other stuff, which is, if, at best, Baja Light style junk--other than the great place in Songtan.

On the border is, imo, a glorified chili's. (I'm going to hear it now.)

The chicken in the fajitas taste like baloney and their chips have an aftertaste like baked tostitos. and what's the deal with teh chicken burrito with the white cheese/cream sauce? How about putting that little fact on the menu?

BUT their salad/rice/beans/fajita vegetables are great. And the service is quite professional. But the chicken breast was atrocious. Maybe just an off day.

I still think DT beats OTB in a burrito to burrito showdown, especially the potato burrito.

Ugh, I tried so hard to like Choi's Tacos, but they constantly fucked up my order. They would speak repeat my order back to me and STILL fill the fucking things with onions. Thank god On the Border opened up.

OK, seriously. I just did DT again. There is no way that chicken alfredo (?!) burrito at OTB beats the potato burrito w/ egg at Dos Tacos. No way, no how. Other plates, fine. Good stuff for the most part. But burrito to burrito, OTB is lacking.

I never tried a taco place with a Korean surname.

Dos Tacos is as good - and in fact better - than most Mexican restaurants back in my home town in Canada (only Senior Froggy's is better)
