Food was delicious and servers were extremely helpful on what to order. The location has plenty of parking around. If you like hot sauces please try there carrot habanero hot sauce it was the perfect spice along with the sweetness from the carrots read more

Very disappointing tacos and selection. Food came out after about 40 min stone cold. First time coming here and it was not so good experience. Someone rating tacos more than 2 stars most likely didn't have good tacos. read more

Sydney Rodekuhr does an amazing job! Fantastic employee and attractive, too! Good restaurant, good employee.

I was in Denver for work & had the chance to grab dinner with a friend who lives in the area. Dos Santos was a suggestion from one of her friends - I am so happy we had the chance to stop here. We ordered guacamole - was nice and chunky, had great flavor and was incredibly fresh. Wish there was a little more! For dinner I got three tacos - Del Mar, Cochinita Pibil & Tinga - they were on the smaller side but were pretty packed. I would say if you're having this for dinner 3 is a great starting point. But if just a snack, one or two would be more than enough. I ordered the Del Mar with the fish instead of shrimp and it was so delicious. I'm sure the shrimp would have been just as tasty. I never say no to tacos - so I'm glad I got to swing by here! I was not let down at all. read more

I would give this place 5 stars but the tacos were overpriced, tiny, and too salty. ($5-7 per taco, yikes) Drinks and appetizers were delicious. Definitely recommend the salsa flight. Aside from that, their music selection was ON POINT and I could appreciate that. read more

I just realized that I never followed up my photo posts with a review which is a gaffe on my part as these are delicious tacos! I love trying vegetarian versions predominantly meat centric dishes. I am not a vegetarian but love the creativity of a vegetable being cooked in unique ways. The carrot mole tacos were awesome; packed with flavor and multi dimensional texture. I ate two and could have easily done two more. Instead I did a vegan cauliflower and veggie but the server made it non vegan by adding sauce and cheese which also made this a notable and delicious taco. read more

Kinda meh over all. The chips were very good. The salsas had good flavor but no heat. The arrachera, green chile chicken, and porky tacos had great flavor. Tinga was pretty good. The Del Mar was pretty bland. We found the two "super hot" house made hot sauces to be super mild. The house made Bloody Mary was both unique and delicious, but only came with a lime and was tiny. Where's the olive, pepperoncini, pickle, celery, etc.? The big draw back to me was no option for flour tortillas. Corn or lettuce only. Lettuce tortillas??? Unacceptable. Truthfully, the spiciest thing we had was the Bloody Mary. Lots of good, but basically balanced against the bad. Hence the solid meh... read more

Dos Santos - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Visiting from out of town and stumbled upon as we were walking to lunch. Ordered chicken rings chips, and fish, shrimp and pulled pork tacos...everything was epic. Margaritas on point as well. read more

Great food and service. Feels like a neighborhood hang-out. Good, shady patio. Good happy hour apps.

This is a lively, not to say frenetic, bar/restaurant in Uptown serving a minimal Mexican menu featuring appetizers, tacos & the like. We had tuna poke nachos & fish tacos on small plates, all well-prepared & delicious. We sat at the bar & found bartenders & waitress to be friendly & accommodating. All in all a fun, informal place to drop in on a midwinter night. read more

RIP Dos Santos. Service matters and this place has fallen off my radar 100%. Used to be my fave tacos in Denver but the food can only be so good if your staff works. The people in the kitchen are rockstars hustling away but the wait staff is, to be blunt, worthless. No need to go back, even the best tacos arent worth the money or poor service. read more

I'm staying in Denver with friends that hit this place up regularly. We arrived yesterday and due to the time change (east coast to mountain time), our schedules were a bit off. They started talking about tacos and guacamole and I suddenly realized that I was starving. It was Sunday and brunch was available...some fabulous choices of egg-infused and other breakfast item taco situations. The tuna ahi tacos (served on lettuce instead of a tortilla shell) were highly recommended...so that's what I ordered. Delicious! A little hard to eat...I made a mess...but the aoli mixed with slaw and 2 nice slices of ahi tuna on each one was a flavor 'splosion. Two of us got the tuna tacos; one got a couple of breakfast-y ones and one had the steak tacos. Great reviews all around. Oh - and we started out with 2 different kinds of guacamole and a pile of seasoned tortilla chips. So. Good. If you like a really spicy bloody mary...get one here. They have great happy hour offerings, too. If I lived in the area, I'd be here often. read more

Wanting fish and chips, my husband found that Dos Santos has fried fish tacos and he was sold. We went here for our most recent date night and had a great time. We started with the nopal guacamole. Nopal is a cactus that is used often in Mexican cooking and we hadn't seen it on a menu before. It was briny and had a gummy texture. It offset the smoothness of the guac well. I ordered a plain ol' quesadilla and my husband had two fish tacos and a cauliflower taco. The fish tacos came with a creamy aioli, but it was the cauliflower ones that he loved. They have a homemade choco taco on the dessert menu - our personal favorite ice cream bar - but we didn't have room. We'll definitely be back to sample it though. It's also worth mentioning that we had pretty exceptional service while we were there - making it all the more enticing to come back. read more

OMG! The best service. The best food. The best margarita. Highly recommend adding the spicy passion fruit. Tings birria was out of this world. The nachos to die for. And forget about the cremini boomers with steak tacos! read more

This was a great find! We went there last night on a whim and will definitely be back! Great vibe, perfect margaritas, and the food was so flavorful! We are big taco connoisseurs, and this place makes some of the best tacos we've had. Our server, Erica, was so friendly and knowledgeable! Top notch place here!!! read more

What will you find here? Solid tacos with a decent menu to boot. We popped in for a drink and bite to eat and I was pleasantly surprised. It was happy hour so I had to order a house Marg and some tacos of course. Started with the Tinga Chips which had chicken all over mixed with spices and goodness-definitely get those again. The taco of the day was a chicken, molé and a crunchy Brussel sprout topping which was tasty indeed. It's a good spot to hang out with mates, grab a drink and a bite to eat in a great location. Check it out for yourself. read more

Best tacos I've ever had! (I had the battered shrimp tacos). Their menu offers both vegan and vegetarian options with lots of flavor. My classic margarita was perfectly crafted. They offer indoor & outdoor seating. Great music playlist as well! I feel full & happy! read more

Dos Santos - Shrimp Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Gentrification wrapped in a stale tortilla. This is the first time leaving a bad review but these are by no exaggeration, the worst and over priced tacos I've had in my life. $60 for four teeny (like stupidly teeny) tacos and bad margarita, feels like a small hate crime. Korean beef taco was tough and soaked in soy sauce. Tinga taco was bad. The pork was o k but still quite tough. My drunk college roommates tacos were better than this, even Taco Bell is better than this and I'm not a fan of the latter. read more

Best taco joint in Denver. The bar tenders are top notch, especially Emilia, Bryan and Alex. The tacos are also out of this world. If you have the chance, try it out. read more

Man this establishment address used to be that dessert eatery in town which I like a lot. NOW that Dessert establishment moved, and its being re-placed by a NOT SO Authentic Mexican establishment in town though from what I know, I could be wrong in this, the Chef is Mexican. In terms of the Menu, it is slightly limited to my liking, since most of the items contain bacon or chorizo. Hence this time around I opt to have the Shrimp and the Fish Tacos instead. Dos Santos, I compared you to another establishment in town near or along that Colfax Ave, that has "Whiskey" in its name. YES, this establishment tends to be "hipster" magnet. But in terms of delivery of food-wise aka taste wise they can do better. They tend to fill the tacos with too much fillers like fried leeks what nots.. Hence this 2.5 STARS GENEROUS Review. In terms of the Desserts, we opt to share the CHURROS. We ask if they can omit Bacon coz I don't consume any Bacon or PORK products at all. Our request is being fulfilled. Our lovely server mentioned that it will take awhile for the Desserts/CHURROS to be ready since they are FRIED TO ORDER. YES its "HUGE". The "Looks" is deceiving indeed. Coz its looks good, but in terms of taste wise, it was just A-OK. Its NOT Wow-ing my personal taste bud. All in all, EVERYTHING IS SEMI-OK. Nothing fancy nothing to write about. Maybe I DID ordered the wrong dishes/items from the Menu. To return NOT in a hurry. Recent visit was on a Saturday. read more

Nothing to write home about. Food was good, but the tacos were lukewarm when brought out. It's annoying how they bring the tacos out on one platter, especially when there's multiple people in the group and you have to figure out which taco is which. Service was decent but waitress took a long time to follow up with us. Margaritas were really good! Ambiance is lackluster, divey, with uncomfortable seating. I think with improvements this restaurant could be great. read more

It was fine. This was the first place I ate out when I moved to Denver and it definitely set the tone for Denver's food scene - meh. My friend and I started joking when we went out to eat: "How's your food?" "It's good" "Is it good or is it Denver good?" "Just Denver good" My food here was just Denver good. Tried a couple of different things and it just was fine. Service was fine. Drink was fine. Nothing stood out at all so I probably would only come again out of convenience or something. read more

Great place for tacos and margs. Their Ahi nachos are so tasty too! It's a small place so there could be a wait but they have a gorgeous patio for warmer days. Definitely a spot to try! read more

Everything was absolutely excellent. I'm not one to write reviews unless a place was awful or exceptionally good. This place was amazing. The margarita was excellent, the tacos were excellent, their special of the month that was a "street corn" of such, was spectacular. Seemed a little expensive at first, but that was before knowing the quality. Yes on all counts to Dos Santos - and I would recommend the barbacoa read more

Dos Santos - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Loved the food here. Salsa was on point. Tacos were fantastic and drinks were so refreshing. One small qualm, it was so dark inside! I'm 26 and I could barely read the menu. I ended up using my phone's flashlight and then lending it to an older couple next to us so they could see the menu as well :) 1.5 years later update: my eyes are worse but the tacos seem to be better. This weekend I most enjoyed the pork taco and the mushroom taco. But damn... the steak taco was so good too!!! read more

I had such a great time here. I loved the atmosphere, the staff seemed genuinely happy, and the food was excellent. I am a tortilla chip fanatic and they were addictive! The blueberry beer was refreshing, crisp, and perfect. I wasn't too hungry and ordered one taco with mushrooms. They waiter was so kind to replace it for one without guacamole. I'm always too embarrassed to say I have an avocado sensitivity and misread the menu (Guak) but they were cool about replacing it with a modified taco. The Asiago flavor tucked away in the taco was the best part. I work in the area and am going to suggest to all my coworkers we come here next week. The restaurant has an awesome outdoor / street facing bar that I wouldn't mind dining solo at either! read more

Dos Santos - This taco was amazing! I can't wait to come back for more - Mexican Near Me - Denver, Colorado

To put it simply: good tacos, bad service. I have been here three times now and somehow always manage to get the not-so-nice blonde girl that works front of house. The interior itself is a bit dark and dreary but its really up-cycled from like, older lockers, wood and the like. The old exposed brick is very pretty and gives it lots of character. Small place with not tons of seating but a nice patio. They recently started running a pretty rad lunch deal though, with 3 tacos and a beverage for just 12$. I will be sure to keep stopping by as long as that's offered. Not my favorite place but I definitely wont say "no" if someone asks me to come with them. read more

I have to provide an update. We are here 10/7/17 and it was pretty bad. The OMFG was awful- so bland. All I could taste was cabbage. Pass. This was really a disaster. The beer is lukewarm. The vegan taco was cold. Person who dropped food asked if we'd like more chips that came with our $8.00 guac. Why yes we would please. When the bill arrived we were charged $0.75 for this. Really? In sum: -overpriced bland and cold tacos -poor service -lukewarm drinks -nickel and diming We won't be returning. read more

Great food always great music. Best service!!! We appreciated the two bar tenders on this Sunday afternoon - helped us pre game. read more

Food was amazing. The beef tacos were delicious. The marg flight is delicious. Sydney provided great service.

Love this spot! Food was amazing as always, and Sydney was awesome! Would highly recommend for anyone who wants good Mexican food

This place is great. Vibes are incredible and the food is so tasty. Kayla that works there is the best! She is so attentive and kind. It truly brightens my day when I walk into Dos and see that she is working!! Plus she makes the best margaritas ever!!!!!! read more

My husband and I stopped in for a quick happy hour and couldn't be more impressed. The poke bites and house margs were great. Our server, Sydney couldn't have been more attentive and friendly. We'll definitely be back! read more

Food was great but service is everything... our first waiter didn't even stop by again for 10 min another waiter was kind enough to to come over and check on us I believe one of the bar tenders in fact . He was very nice saw the guy kinda didn't want to be our waiter and stepped in . I'm not sure why our first waiter didn't want to serve us food was amazing as always but definitely hope for better service in my future visits we left the second waiter a big tip to thanks second waiter !!!! read more

I came here with some friends late on a Sunday for a quick dinner. We got the beef tacos, the mahi mahi, the ahi tuna, and the quesadilla. We also got the guacamole for an app. The food was all served family style, and we each ordered what we wanted. The tacos are small but it's easy to order more, and they're priced reasonably at 5-8 dollars. The tacos were delightful, the mahi mahi in particular was particularly tasty. The service was courteous and quick. I'll definitely return next time I'm in Denver! read more

Really good Mexican food. The bowl was also a great alternate. All the cauliflower based products are fantastic. I recommend the special shots read more

Kind and helpful service in the bar seating area (though the whole staff pitched in to help us when the bartender was busy), and yummy tacos + margs! Flavorful and creative menu (loved the OMFG lettuce wrap taco) -- but not authentic Mexican if that's what you're looking for. Good vibes here. The music was a little loud, but I'm more crotchety than I used to be, so ‍ read more

Meh, I don't know. I've heard rave reviews about this place and maybe it's just my hormones talking, but I don't think it's all that it's cracked up to be. Hubs and I stopped in for lunch after an appointment with the little one in tow, and we just weren't impressed. It's a hipster taco place for sure, so chalk up the rave reviews to the level of hipster-y vibes. We ordered some guacamole (basically 2 Tablespoons of it for $8) and while it was good, it just wasn't enough. We each ordered 3 tacos, which were street size, and voila, somehow we dumped $40 on a lunch that wasn't satisfying at all. The beef taco was probably the best flavor wise with tomatillo salsa and that quest fresco on top. But meh, if you're just looking to nibble and not starving, I'd say this might be your place. Otherwise, try Qdoba across the street. read more

Holy freaking criznap! I came here for a quick lunch on a Monday afternoon on the recommendation of some friends who live nearby. I have since been back several times. Each time I have enjoyed the service of an attentive waitstaff and perhaps the best street tacos I've found in the area. Understand these are kind of hipster street tacos, not the authentic taqueria-style tacos you'll find on Alameda east of Lakewood. They have a particular taco called "OMFG" which, appropriately, is the most delicious thing I've had from the menu. I've also had the steak arrachera and the roasted cauliflower. As an unrepentant and ravenous carnivore, I must say that I like the cauliflower taco more than anything other than the OMFG. It does seem that Dos Santos is much easier to get into at lunchtime than at dinner. My daughter and I walked over to grab a bite around 6:30 one evening and when we saw the crowd, we decided to go elsewhere. Reminded me of the Yogi Berra quote: "That place is so busy, no one goes there anymore." :) Truly a delicious meal in Uptown. If they aren't packed, go in and grab a spot and nosh some tacos. You'll thank yourself. read more
