Great spot! I enjoyed the atmosphere, the food, and the staff. To start, I had a spicy house margarita and poke nachos. Highly recommend both. I also had a beer battered fish taco. Also delicious. Definitely recommend this spot. Great stop! read more

Pozole was good! The salsa for appetizers was super delish! However, the 6 tequilas we wanted to taste were out of stock. Service was relatively slow, considering we were the only few patrons there. Very good coin Rita. I give you 3 stars for your inventory and service. read more

We came in here for a drink while waiting for a table at another local restaurant across the street, what an unexpected nice experience with an upbeat and sultry vibe. We sat at the bar, we were lucky enough to find two open chairs on a Friday night, as the rest of the place was pretty packed. Our bartender was great, I don't remember his name, but he had lots of tattoos, and helped me make my difficult decision between the rum Horchata and the premium margarita. I decided to opt for the margarita, as it was going to be less sweet before dinner. It was good, but for $22, I really couldn't taste anything premium or different from your standard margarita. The black lava salt on the rim was a delicious pairing. My date got a very simple vodka soda. I think next time I would definitely try the rum Horchata, it seems a little more unique read more

We went on a Friday evening and we were seating at one of the high tables right away. There was a good amount of people in the restaurant. The plantains were yummy and they added a little bit of rock salt which was different but I kinda like the sweet and salt combo. We got the chicken quesadilla which was so tasty with a good amount of cheese. We also ordered the fish tacos, barbacoa tacos and tinga chicken tacos. All of them were packed and were very tasty. Our server was very good. He did take a super long time to give us our check but that's ok since it gave me and my friend a chance to talk. Overall a good meal and experience. read more

Great dinner tonight with friends! DEFINITELY get a margarita. The blood orange and the spicy passionfruit ones were great. Then for sure get tacos, the beer battered fish, steak, and taco of the month were the table favorites. If you want an app, get the poke nachos-- soooo good. But you can skip the chips & salsa and the cojita cheese dip. read more

Big bar and fun friendly bartender! Pazole was good not chilie forward. The shrimp taco was so good. The batter was light and all the things on top were on point. The house margs were perfect! Add some more chilie depth the the pazole and it will be 5 stars read more

Hadn't been to Dos Santos in a while, and was glad we returned for the Agave Challenge. We were greeted and seated right away, but the restaurant filled up quickly and had the three staff members (manager, bartender, host/server) scrambling. I appreciated how they all chipped in to help, but there was a lag between orders and items being delivered to our table. There are many seating options available in this rusticly decorated restaurant. Most are high-tops, and the four low-tops that are available are placed very close together and all conversations can be heard. Our drinks were carefully crafted and delicious. The Summertime Sipper was a refreshing mix of fresh cucumber, jalapeno, tequila, and lime. The Quince Sour was a bit sweeter with lavender syrup, quince, mezcal, and egg white. Food is fresh and made to order. The poke nachos were an excellent start to our meal and arrived quickly. Full of fresh ahi tuna with sesame and sriracha aioli, served over house chips. The cup of pozole was served in a mug--perfect for sipping the broth. The tacos were great. The beer-battered shrimp was lightly battered with good flavor. The star was the barbacoa beef. A flavor bomb of sweet marinated beef with kimchi and sriracha aioli. I won't wait as long as I did before to return to Dos Santos. read more

Dos Santos for the win! Yummy tacos, yummy poke nachos, yummy drinks. It all was really delicious. I am not a fish eater by any means, but the poke nachos were stellar! By far, the best taco on their menu was the Barbacoa beef tacos. The meat was so tender, so well flavored, so very, very delicious! I will go back just for that taco! Drinks were also good. Dos Santos is participating in the Agave Challenge through the month of June. Their drinks were stellar and by far the best I've had so far. Servers were very nice, but were very busy and we had to wait a little bit for drinks, food, and check. They did their best. They did not have a couple of items on the menu as they were out of stock. Pro tip- they charge a 3% fee if you use a credit card and do not do split checks. However, the cute decor and set up as well as the barbacoa beef made up for all that. I will be returning! read more

Taco 'bout a great place!! My mom, sister and I went for lunch yesterday and we sat outside to enjoy the nice weather. It wasn't too busy for lunch which was nice. Since it was taco Tuesday it was 2 for 1 margs, and 2 different types of tacos (I think?) we got hibiscus margs and my mom ordered a coin marg. It was delish! I wish it was a tad sweeter but it was still good! I ordered the barbacoa taco, the battered shrimp. Both were so freaking delicious! The barbacoa taco has a great Asian twist to it and OMG it was so fantastic!!! The shrimp taco was a little too big for the tortilla if you ask me with all the toppings on it but it was still super tasty!! I can't remember what my sister and mom had but they both enjoyed theirs. We also had some plantains which came with a sweet crema and they were a nice sweet treat to end the meal. read more

Where do I begin? This is my must stop in Denver. The interior is very cute and at night the lights are dimmed and romantic. The monthly drinks and tacos make this a fun place to keep coming back to. The cauliflower taco is perfect! Also vegetarians...you can get the crunchy beef taco and substitute for black beans. I recommend a basil lime shot to end your meal! read more

In town visiting my brother and he took me here for lunch. Super cute decor and the service was great. If you love unique tacos this is the place to go. We got 4 tacos between us and shared. I got the pork belly and OMFG (which is tuna poke wrapped in lettuce) and my brother got the fish and taco of the month (seared tuna with a peach salsa). I'd absolutely get the pork belly and fish tacos over and over again. We got some chips and guacamole for table and we also ordered a flight of their 3 hot sauces which were incredibly hot but so good. Ask for a take out ramekin because I promise you'll want the extra to put on everything at home. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

Great service and the food was tasty. I was a little put off by the very low lighting. Had to use my phone flashlight to see the small letters on the menus. That said I am familiar with their menu. I brought my daughter for the first time and we ordered the flight of margaritas! Because it was her first time there the waitress brought us a taste of the basil margarita too! We had the taquitos and chips and salsa to go with the margs. We decided then to just get a couple tacos. I got the fish and she order one of my favorite...Chicken tinga taco and the beer battered shrimp taco. Like the fish taco it has habanero and a kick! She was happy and I look like a cool mom! read more

This spot is a treasure! I dined here with relatives and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. The music was upbeat (a bit on the louder side for conversation) and set the tone for a fun ambiance. The service was top-notch: friendly, enthusiastic, and prompt. The menu displayed an eclectic array of tacos and various other Mexican dishes. Among the three of us, each person tried 2-3 different tacos and they were all flavorful and aesthetically appealing. I'd like to come back for the all day happy hour or taco Tuesday! read more

Cute little spot. Burrito bowl was a surprise of flavors; the added barbacoa had an Asian inspired flavor which was unexpected. The service was good. They weren't busy since we arrived fairly soon after they opened on Sunday. The Mahi taco was delish, the chicken was actually mediocre. I think the tacos were a smidge overpriced but that's just me. read more

The OMFG is so brilliant. The lettuce for the lettuce wrap has gotten smaller but it doesn't change the fact that its taste is amazing. The margarita is ...trash for a margarita drinker . There is something else in it that I can't place, a preservative? A good simple marg should be tequila, fresh lime (not sure it is because it's a premixed drink) and an agave simple syrup (agave with hot water that cools so you can mix it)....this tasted like there was something fake in it. Chips are solid and so is the guac. Wouldn't be mad about adding queso to the menu. - Have you tried Alma Fonda Fina? Pretty crazy good. On insta @FloozyForFood read more

Came here on a Tuesday for dinner. The staff were very attentive, and we were seated very quickly. They have both indoor and outdoor seating available. The drinks were great and super strong. The food is what you would expect. Not traditional Mexican food and nothing special or stand out about this place, but it was fine. I did take one star off because they were out of almost everything. Except to pay around 40-50$ per person for a few tacos and two drinks. I wouldn't come out of my way to come here but it was an okay spot. Overall 3.5/5 read more

The service and quality of food is always stellar at Dos Santos. Our margaritas were very good and our tacos were very flavorful. We sat outside which was perfect even when it was warm. I'd definitely recommend this place. The only drawbacks are the price of food (even with happy hour) the bill adds up quick and they don't allow dogs in the outside area . We had to keep the dog on the outside of the gate. read more

In an emoji: Came here for a girls dinner on a Friday. Not too long of a wait for outdoor patio seats, which was sweet. Our server, Taylor, started off friendly enough. She messed up our order and when we pointed it out, got defensive and asked if we wanted the wrong taco on our bill (um, no?). Brought us what we ordered and said the bill would say 2 bang bang shrimp and 1 porky but they were the same price. Turns out, they weren't the same price. The wrong one she kept on cost more (shady move). We ordered 4 house tequilas on the rocks. In normal establishments, ice does not cost extra. While looking over our bill, we noticed we were charged an extra $2 per drink for "ice". When asking Taylor, she got huffy, snatched the receipt from us, and stormed off. Her manager returned, saying they charge extra $ for ice because the drinks also have .5 extra ounces in them. I'm sorry, what? It's one thing to charge more $ for more booze, but factor that into your price, don't make an "ice" upcharge and more importantly DISCLOSE that information! Tell me what I'm getting (fyi this was not on the menu) and if it's more than usual. As someone who was driving home, this is crucial to know and could be extremely dangerous. We got the bill settled and Taylor was extremely unpleasant until we left. Now, tacos. The mushroom taco was the best I've had and if ever forced to come here again, would make the experiment worth it. The beer battered mahi mahi taco was honestly, pretty bad. Really disappointing experience. read more

So we came here to grab a bite on Sunday during Pride weekend- I knew it'd be busy like everything was in the area. I was looking forward to all the different options, the place has a cool vibe and fun atmosphere but unfortunately the service was really lacking and the food was just okay. We ordered the salsa flight and guacamole as appetizers and a big array of tacos between our party. The salsas were great but the guacamole was served on top of a bed of chips, giving the illusion of a nice fat bowl of guacamole when it was maybe only 3/4 of a cup of actual guac. The salsas and guac were served with a really small amount of chips which were gone pretty quick - with no staff in sight to bring more, eventually we did get more but by that time our tacos had finally arrived. They serve them family style, all on planks of wood or big round platters - it looks great but the tables are small, so while the aesthetic is nice, you literally have no room at your table. I chose the taco of the month (Mahi) and the beer battered shrimp taco - both were okay. The Mahi was a nice chunk of fish, but lacked flavor, and the shrimp taco was mostly batter. We also ordered the steak quesadilla, a piece of it got dropped on the floor when they were bringing it to the table & it took a long time to get it replaced. Overall, the staff seemed confused and overwhelmed. A disappointing food/service experience but it is a nice location, so I'd like to give the benefit of thinking it was just an off day, but I doubt I'll be back to test the theory. read more

I just had one of the bed lunches I've ever had today at dos santos. I had a variety of tacos and all of them too notch.

The tacos were delicious. We had the steak, beer battered shrimp, & pork. We started with the chips & salsa which was a little disappointing because neither salsas they came with had any spice. Also had a house marg & ranch water which were great. The biggest let down was the no rice or beans on the menu. :( overall good food but not good enough to come back. read more

Well came here in a Sunday at 240PM. The time is important as they were not too busy and we were seated. It took about 10 minutes for anyone to take our drink order and an app. Well they have happy hour at 3 pm. Waitress came and told us she would put order in at 3 pm. Well 320 pm we got appetizer gets there but no drinks, we asked but she was confused took another 15 minutes to get our drinks, at this point we decided we were not staying, of course drinks come. We throw them down ask for check and it was literally thrown to us on table. Was thinking of moving down here and was looking at places but this left a bad taste and hoping this is not a reflection of Castle Rock! Ambiance as alright read more

Stopped by Dos Santos on a Friday for happy hour and had a blast! The happy hour food menu isn't that special but the vibes, drinks and food was sooo good! I had the basil limade but didn't love it so I switched to the house marg with a tajin rim and it was delicious! We ordered the tuna poke bites (tiny happy hour bites) which were tasty but not filling. I had two beer battered shrimp tacos and they were my favorite! My guest ordered a steak and a beer battered fish taco, and really enjoyed the steak but not the fish (compared to the shrimp especially). I would come back here for happy hour or anytime for good margs and tacos! read more

After searching for a fun patio to host our engagement party at we decided on Dos Santos. I'd personally never eaten here or sat on their patio. Only because we live in a different part of Denver now. Let me tell you...Dos Santos nailed my party of 50 people out on that patio in summertime. Nailed it. The patio space buy out was very reasonable and though we did go over it was only because I chose the Top Shelf Marg as my signature cocktail for the evening:) Here are the highlights of hosting our party there. 1) communication and flexibility. 2) they had multiple waitstaff servicing just us. This is a bigger deal then you'd think. We also had a bartender that was focused primarily on our group. 3) the food was excellent. Not at all compromised by the size of the group. 4) as the busy bride and hostess I can tell you I had to check in very little with them. They had it. That's worth it's weight in Gold. 5) the waitstaff was GOOD. Total pros. Not the young new kid they just hired. These were people that knew how to multitask and celebrate. I just can't say enough positive things about this. 6) the cocktails were gorgeous AND delicious. 7) all the other things I'm forgetting, they really couldn't have impressed me or my guests more. Side note: every one of the people at my party are in the high end service industry. We know good service when we receive it and we are not shy to celebrate it as it's become so terribly rare. Thank you, Dos Santos and all the staff that made our engagement party a smooth, celebratory, yummy success! read more
