Ordered 10 tacos to go from Los Dos and they absolutely delivered. Everything was packed well and still hot when we got home. The tacos were flavorful, fresh, and generously filled--no skimping on meat or toppings. The tortillas held up great and didn't fall apart, which is always a win for takeout. Service was quick and efficient, even with a decent crowd. You can tell they know what they're doing. If you're looking for solid, no-nonsense tacos that travel well, this is a great spot. Definitely coming back. read more

This is the best hidden gem in town. It is hands down the best Mexican restaurant around. You won't be disappointed. Our all time favorites are the chicken quesadillas and the chicken tacos. read more

It's good every time. Every choice. Love it! Always hot and fresh. Never had a bad taste read more

Happy 14th anniversary on 4/12. I don't visit here often enough. I have never been disappointed with anything prepared for me and it is a treat visiting them. Everyone is always happy to see you and so much love goes into everything prepared by Chef Amore and her staff. Here's to another 14 years! read more

Amazing steak tacos and guacamole. Out of the red and green salsa I liked the flavor of the green better, and it was a little spicier. Great service! read more

Food is wonderful. Definitely tastes like home cooking from my abuela's kitchen. The menu is small and gives some very nice quality options. Ordering up at the counter and enjoying the meal at the table was perfect. At the end of our meal it was nice to have everything accessible at a front cart for taking leftover items home! The owner reminded us that there are specials that change every day and thanked us for our business. Very kind and welcoming- we will definitely be coming back. read more

I love this place way too much. Luckily I live down the street so I've been coming here since I was younger. Back then I use to get their steak bowls and I loved them. As I've gotten older I've become addicted to their steak tacos, rice, and veggie beans. & When I'm feeling crazy I'll get the carne asada lol. what makes this place stand out for me is the corn tortillas are like no other, you can taste how fresh they are and that they're homemade- they're incredibly soft and so so good. love that they use black beans instead of the traditional beans you'd usually get. the extra extra hot salsa is my all time favoooorite. it's super hot but it's so addicting. I also love how clean the place is whenever I walk in + the young woman who checks everyone out has been there for years and she's extremely nice and accommodating. Will never stop coming here as long as I live in the area. if I had one thing to complain about it'd be the hours or maybe not offering delivery. They close too early on weekdays (6:30) and then on the weekends they're only open till 830 so that's kind of a bummer. Either way not anything terrible enough to where I wouldn't come here over and over again lol. read more

Checked this place out. We all wanted some tacos. It's in a little shopping area. So plenty of parking. We ordered at the counter and sat down. Chips and salsa came out first. Chips were nice and warm. It's a small place but there are a few tables. They had the football game on tv and we waited for our food to come out. It was pretty quick and very good. Service was super nice too. Pricing was reasonable and they had a good variety of items to choose from. We all are planning to come back soon. read more

Cute little spot located in a strip mall. Parking is shared with the other businesses. Hannah was taking orders both in person and over the phone. She was super friendly and polite. I had the chicken rice bowl and it was very flavorful. I enjoyed the green salsa they served as well. Very reasonably priced and food was not greasy at all. read more

Our go-to place in DG for fast/casual Mexican. We love coming here on Saturdays for the tamales.

Had lunch here today. Still wonderful, authentic food of the Yucatán. Can't recommend highly enough.

The tacos here were pretty average but I can tell it is more authentic than most places. Quality- I got 4 different tacos and my favorite was the beef taco. The meats for all the tacos are seasoned well and fresh . Quantity- 5 bucks for a taco is pricy. Atmosphere- nice quiet place Service- pretty fast read more

Highly recommend you watch for the daily specials. Posted daily on their site and or instagram. The cheek taco, Lamb taco and the Pork Belly are outstanding. The steak dinner is also tasty and enough for two if you add a 4oz guacamole that comes with extra chips. Small menu. No burritos. Chips and tortillas are made fresh. You can often see the lady making them if you sit at the bar. Never had a rice bowl there so can't recommend. The soups are good too, they change daily. And quesadillas are great to dip in the green sauce. If you want more heat, ask for the hot sauce. It's fire. Good to mix into the mild for your heat preference. read more

Great tacos! And when I ate here, I accidentally left my laptop bag (with laptop), and by the time I realized it and called it was almost closing time. Not only had the workers already found the bag and kept it for me, but they were willing to stay late after closing just so I could come pick it up. So not only great tacos, but also above-and-beyond-all-expectation service. read more

I'm a little surprised by all the great reviews. We went last week - dined in - and have to say that the food was pretty bland. If you dine in - you get free chips/salsa - which were hot chips (temperature wise) and pretty good salsa to dip in. For meals - I got the steak rice bowl and my husband got the conchinita pibil. Both were fine - but both definitely lacking any spice to it. We weren't even given a side of salsa with it. Nothing special at all. I won't be returning. read more

To find an authentic taco spot near us is pretty difficult. So so happy we gave this place a try! It's a bit of a drive for us but so worth it- the staff are all so kind and nice too! My husband tried the carne asada and I had some- it was cooked perfectly and seasoned so well. Finding a spot that serves quality meat is always a task for us! We found that here. You can tell they take great pride in their clean kitchen and reinventing their menu and specials each day. I tried a chicken torta and it was amazinggg! Ask for the spicy salsa, it is picoso but very flavorful! Well done team! read more

Los Dos - Chicken Torta with fresh telera bread - Mexican Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

First time we ordered from here. The food and service were good but the price for a simple taco is pricey.

Another of these pretty casual Mexican cantinas. It provides some affordable Mexican food in Downer's Grove. Los Dos is a small place but has a surprisingly large menu. Even though the menu isn't that big either you can still find lots to choose from. There's bowls, tacos, and more authentic items. I came in for a fast lunch and decided to eat here. It has a counter to order at and they bring your order wherever you are sitting. The menu is written on a chalkboard and is pretty easy to understand. Food is pretty authentic. This isn't covered in lots of gooey cheese like at those fast food places. Authentic beverages. It's $1.80 for Jarritos and other Mexican pop. They have no alcohol selection. It has a nice selection of Rice Bowls. It's $8.95 for the one with no meat. This has beans, cheese, cilantro, lettuce, onions, rice, sour cream, and tomatoes. Get it vegan by not having the cheese and sour cream. They will add more vegetables to make up for this. Good authentic Mexican. It has a large amount for the size of the place. There's good choices for vegetarians. read more

Los Dos - Jarritos And The Rice Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

I took a chance based on some Yelp reviews and visited here after my workout 8/25/23....and I am so happy I did!! I ordered 2 steak Tacos, 1 corn 1 flour Tortilla, order of rice, 1/2 order of Guacamole. STEAK TACOS- The meat was seasoned nicely & was tender. Tacos come with onion & cilantro but you can add more toppings or skip toppings. They were thick tacos! Definitely get moneys worth! I ordered 2 steak tacos. With the sides I ordered I could have been full with just the one taco but I opted to eat the 2nd taco and take home some of the guacamole. GUACAMOLE- It's fresh and was made traditional with cilantro, onion and little bits of tomato. I am guessing you can ask them to leave out items you don't like...like some ppl don't like cilantro.‍ SPANISH RICE- loved the rice! it was fluffy and perfect. The order size is about a little over a cups worth. SALSA - I was given complimentary chips while I waited for my order and they were fresh and delicious! There was a green and red salsa accompaniment. Neither was very spicy..but the red was a tiny bit spicy. With my tacos, I was served a darker red sauce with an X on the lid & that one was delish & very spicy! Loved that one! TORTILLAS- I thought they were DELICIOUS ! Especially given that the tortilla business has gone to hell for the people who enjoy buying them to eat with a meal instead of bread. The commercial sellers of tortillas have ruined them with excessive sodium and fat and unnecessary preservative chemicals. BUSINESS ENERGY- Everyone I spoke with was very pleasant and very helpful. I spoke with the owner and she was equally nice. She told me to check the website for their daily specials which I certainly plan to do! There many things on the menu I plan to try so i will come back to add to this rewiew! Till then, "Be happy And be a good human! read more

Los Dos - Steak Tacos ,Spanish rice, Guacamole. - Mexican Near Me - Downers Grove, Illinois

This place is phenomenal. Another great find in the western suburbs of Chicago. It's a Mexican restaurant in the middle of a strip mall next to an Anytime Fitness. The restaurant has a number of taco options that are on the menu every day, and they update their Facebook page to feature a different special every day as well. The special that we had was smoked ribs, with salsa on top of it. I question how authentic that is, but it was definitely tasty. The meat came right off the bone. There are two options of tortillas, corn and flour, and both are pretty good. The two salsa options both tasted fresh and made that day. Not too spicy. I'm not a big steak eater, but the person in our party who ordered the steak said it was on the dry side. The Carnitas were nice and juicy. I especially liked the rice and the beans that came with all of the platters, because they were flavorful and rich. The food felt very Americanized, but that's okay. Hearty, tasty, delicious. They also had a delicious flan that was creamy and rich. They advertise a bunch of different flavors, but only had vanilla. So I got two! We will be back soon! read more

First time at Los Dos. Overall good experience. Positives: very fresh ingredients, flavorful. Great, friendly service. Negatives: prices quite a bit higher than the photos show here on yelp. Steak tacos about $4.75 now. Also, no options to save a couple bucks by buying a dinner. Everything is a la carte. Gets to be expensive. Many items, like burritos and flautas only occasionally available. Menu changes daily. read more

This place has hands down the best steak tacos, and beans I have ever had. I actually got into an accident at work and while I was in the hospital this was the only food I would eat. I actually injured myself further to stay at the hospital longer so my family would feed me those delicious tacos every day. If my fiancée would let me have them cater our wedding, I would leave her at the alter to go eat tacos. Edit: I left my fiancée because she dared claim that Los Dos was the second best taco she had ever had. She's obviously not well mentally. But that's ok cause I'm going to soothe my broken heart with some of their amazing made in house salsa. read more

Food is amazing. Help is very friendly and always helpful. It's a bit small inside so not much seating but still worth taking home if you can't eat in. We regularly go here throughout the year and will continue our visits. read more

Great service and booming business in a sleepy part of town! Obsessed with the tikka tacos. My boyfriend and I love a quiet escape and a sit down at their bar. Small quaint delicious read more

How have I not written a Los Dos review yet?! This gem is hidden in a strip mall, but so worth seeking out. Seating is limited, so I wouldn't suggest taking a big group to eat in house. Take out is better for groups. The menu is on a big chalk board. On our most recent trip I chose a steak taco and a salbute. The salbute is one of my favorites on the menu: a crispy fried and puffed corn tortilla with chicken, pickled onion, cabbage and tomato. Unique and amazing. The steak they use is fantastic as well, best eaten with just the onion and cilantro. The chips and salsa... phenomenal. The green is spicier than the red and is served in squeeze bottles. This time we also orders guacamole which was fresh and delicious. I've tried other items on the menu as well and we've never had a bad meal. I highly suggest a trip to Los Dos! read more

Fantastic food and excellent attentive service. The specials change every day on Facebook page. I love the tamales, spicy shrimp tacos, pork sopes, any soup and any stews are worth a try or two! The sauces are delicious! The guacamole is very tasty. One of the best Mexican spots anywhere. Ambiance is very casual with a lively counter overlooking the kitchen and only six or eight tables. They do a great carry out operation if you want to place a phone order. I'm usually placing a carry out order several times a month. read more

Great experience! They have fantastic and fresh food, and the service is fantastic! So kind and accommodating despite it not being a full sit down restaurant. Will be going back again! read more

Overall best tacos around! Staff are always friendly and they have some great specials. Highly recommend this place.

Hand made corn tortillas authentic tasting salsas super delicious and higher quality than many other places I've been to. So tasty. We got a lot of things to try but definitely recommended the beans. Rice taste like other places. But worth getting the salsas and tacos. Chips were not greasy. Pulled pork was dry and bland. read more

Los Dos is an authentic Mexican restaurant that offers both dine in and carry out, as well as delivery at times through Grub Hub. The food is fantastic, so so delicious. So good in fact that my Uber driver on day on the way to the airport one day, who was from Chicago, told me he drives out of the city to come here because the food is that good and authentic. The food is simple, but delicious. Freshly prepared in front of you. The staff is always friendly and if you come in regularly, like i did pre-Covid (now I order delivery), they ask you if you want your regular. What can I say, I'm predictable! I have tried a lot of their menu and it's all so good. The tortas, salbutes, tacos, rice bowls, quesadillas, guacamole, salsa, carne asada, all excellent. Don't sleep on their specials either. They're delicious and many times sell out. Every time I come here there is a line, or people eating, lunch time is busy (pre Covid), dinner is busy, I'm glad they've been so successful because the food is so so good and I love supporting small, local businesses, especially now. Looking forward to going back in person, which is hopefully soon! read more

I drove 30 min to come eat their food and Yelp showed they were open. And of course closed. Please restas if you close even if it's for inclement weather, UPDATE your Yelp and website read more

I absolutely recommend this place the food is delicious & the owner is very nice & welcoming

Great authentic Mexican food in Downers Grove. There are plenty of options around for Mexican, and this is one of the good ones. I'm glad my friend decided to take me here for lunch. The inside seating is minimal but still we got a table. The prices are on the higher end for something like this, but you do get great food. The steak quesadillas are amazing. The location is not the best but if you are in the area, give this place a shot. read more
