This place is always hopping for good reason. The food is consistently delicious, the margaritas are solid, and the salsa is genuinely good. One thing I really appreciate is the fast service and how quickly the food comes out, even when they're busy. The service is impressively fast. The ambience is great and there's plenty of seating, so even though it's popular, it never feels cramped. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Los Dos Portillos is consistently good. I've been to multiple locations, and the quality is just as good every time. Occasionally, you'll even catch a mariachi band, which adds a really fun, authentic vibe. One time they even humored me and played "Poco Loco," which thoroughly delighted me. There will almost always be a wait on Friday and Saturday nights, but honestly, it's a reflection of how popular the place is, and it's worth it. I grew up in an area with a high Hispanic population, so my standards for Mexican food are pretty high. This place absolutely delivers. It's one of those spots I keep coming back to, and I'm never disappointed. read more

Ahhhhhmazing food! Always great service. I discovered that there is a back patio which is so nice when the weather is good! The steak nachos and table side guac are phenomenal. Although I do find it annoying that they put huge chunks of steak on the nachos so you have to individually cut them up. Nachos shouldn't require silverware. The margs are tasty! Prices are fair. We have taken family and friends from out of town and all have been satisfied each time. They do have a wait during popular times so be aware of that but you can always get a drink at the bar. We love this place! read more

This Los Dos Potrillos on San Juan Way has improved over the years. The first time I ate there it was not good. I have decided to give it another chance, so I went back a few years later, and the food and service was much better. They have a big menu with several great meals. One of my favorites is the Los Dos Potrillos burrito. It is a large chicken and bean burrito smothered in their excellent green chile. The service has improved, but still needs more improvement, thus the 4 stars instead of 5. read more

My favorite Mexican in denver! The chile relleno nachos are amazing, so are the Birria tacos.

Our large group of 15 had dinner at this lively restaurant. They don't take reservations and we were told to go early given its popularity. Our server did a pretty good job of getting all our orders correct and the dishes were brought out quickly. I had a beef fajita which came with accompaniments of tortillas. guacamole, shredded cheese, beans, etc. The portions were sizable and the taste was decent. The salsa that came with the chips was hot and full of flavor. read more

Beef Enchilada take out. Bland and flavorless. Worst Mexican food I've eaten. Popular restaurant so perhaps take out doesn't get much attention to quality? read more

Terrible blocks of cheese in chile relleno that tastes like soap. All their dinners are overloaded wit tasteless cheese and they charge a lot for that. read more

The food and their service is great. I absolutely love their Chile Relleno Nachos. Minor observations: The decor is dated and it looks like it could use a refresh and deep cleaning. The restroom is definitely in need of some TLC. read more

Amazing everything. Plates are huge and make for take home. This is our go to mexfood at leást once every 2 weeks

I have been wanting to try this place, they get a lot of good media. My niece & I were the first customers today waiting by the door when they opened. The place appeared to be clean but my menu had quite a lot of dried food in it. I ordered the Los Dos Potrillos enchilada's and my niece ordered the Chili Relleno nachos. The food arrived quickly and the initial presentation was good. The guacamole was fresh as were the vegetables. My entire lunch was cold. The beef enchilada filling was rotten and had a strong flavor. I couldn't finish anything because of the bad taste in my mouth from the beef. My nieces chili relleno nachos were swimming in grease. We had 1 entree, 1 appetizer and two glasses of water and the bill with a 20% tip was $43.88 for a lunch neither of us ate. read more

Food was great but they charged birthday treat and service was extremely slow. It seems not that busy

Enjoyed our meal here. Good Mexican food. Loved my fajitas. Kiddo loved their quesadillas Service was good. Big place inside. Plenty of seating, large several rooms. Nice bar too! read more

The chips and salsa were all homemade and I really enjoyed the spice level of the salsa. The service was very quick- I think it was less than 3 minutes before my food was out after ordering. I appreciated the fresh made tortillas that were served with the fajitas. read more

The food is always good. They give you plenty. The servers have always been friendly. It is a casual atmosphere. If I had one complaint it can be very busy. Hard to get in. Around or after 5pm. Which speaks to quality of the food. read more

This was likely the best chile verde I had in my trip to Denver. The steak burrito was excellent, as were the carnitas and chicken chile verde burrito. They make their tortillas fresh in house, and you can taste the difference. read more

We love everything about this Los Dos! The food, the service, the atmosphere, all are perfect. Elizabeth is incredible, ask to sit in her section! She is so kind and makes you feel like family. She is quick, thorough, and always so happy and friendly. The food here is delicious and we have tried most of the menu items. They also have the best Diet Coke! read more

No good. The service here is very bad. You will wait so long and met with bad attitudes- The waitress kept rolling her eyes and laughing when we asked for things. We were so confused Also the food is so salty and may contain something that didn't agree with us. We had very bad headaches and didn't feel good read more

Had lunch there with some friends today. The food was well prepared and flavorful, and the ambience was hopping and fast. The wait staff was double timing since it was a very busy lunch hour which was good business for the restaurant. What was annoying was the final service. We had asked for receipts for card charges and a return of change from cash - neither happened. When the service ignores the customer requests perhaps for desiring bigger tips on the charges, that is disrespectful and unreasonable. We all agreed if we did this place again, we would stay until our requests were honored and handled correctly. read more

Elizabeth (Location#2) is simply the best. Her attitude and attentiveness is second to none. The food is consistently great. Highly recommended and if you eat here and you get Elizabeth as your server, you are in great hands. read more

We went last night for my wife's birthday (a Tuesday around 7pm). The food we ordered came relatively fast, however, our server never checked back in during the 40 min after dropping the food. My meal was not good, could be a mistake they may have been able to fix. Because the server never checked in I didn't eat it and ended up asking for a refund when he came with the check. I didn't eat not get to eat a meal. Bad experience for our family. read more

1. Bad and slow service, and has been for the last three visits. 2. Food is good, but not worth waiting so much. 3. I tried to get a printed receipt, and when I finally received it, the waitress was rude In handing it to me. 4. Cost of food is high. 5. Ambiance is reasonably good. read more

My sister lives in Littleton, CO, and her family often eats there. My sister took me for my birthday. We shared two appetizers. Chili Rejanno and guacamole were made at the table. We couldn't finish all of it. I was happy we couldn't finish everything because I took the leftovers home for dinner the next day. Also, my sister told them it was my birthday. They brought out a sopaipilla the size of the plater. They topped it with strawberry preserve, chocolate drizzled all over it, and whipping cream. I hope it's on the menu because when I go back I want one. I want to repeat my lunch. read more

This is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, when our son visits from abroad, this is consistently the first food he wants to eat. Portions are large, service is friendly & typically fast. The menu is vast, options are plentiful & the food is always tasty. If you are planning to visit on a Friday or holiday such as Mother's Day, be sure to arrive early as there is almost always a wait. read more

Food was great. Waiter was especially good to our special needs person. Great option all around!

I like menudo but the last two times I had it the pork tasted old, very old like it was frozen for multiple times. I know this because I am a cook. Why do you use old ingredients? Why not stick with fresh tripe only and get rid of the pig feet unless you can provide fresh ingredients? Disappointed. read more

Jose, one of the bartenders, is probably my favorite on all of Denver. The whole staff here is pretty amazing but he's def top two and not number two! The Micheladas - the best in all of Denver. Can't argue with me on this one, just try it and you'll see. Everything I've ordered to eat here is good as well. read more

Service was fast and good. Salsa and chips are excellent. Husband had the chili relleno plate and liked it. I had the shrimp tacos and they were awful. A handful of tiny salad shrimp spread over 3 small tortillas. Very tasteless and disappointing. We won't be back. read more

Although Los Dos Potrillos is a chain, I just had to try it. I'm a fan of small strip malls and this was the perfect location. Every single staff member was so kind and took great care of us. The service was attentive and quick. If you have a large party, this restaurant can surely accommodate. With several large seating areas, Los Dos can certainly get packed, but it was only a little busy when I ate here. Complimentary chips and salsa was good, but the salsa was too spicy for me. Like most Mexican restaurants the menu is several pages long and packed with tons of different options. It was a bit overwhelming for me, but I finally settled on a combination plate. Chicken enchilada, chile relleno, taco, rice and beans. Yeah, that's all one plate and boy was it yummy. Definitely a top Mexican restaurant for me and the taco shell wasn't soggy like most other places. I will be back for sure! read more

This place has gone down hill real fast. Used to be one of our favorite restaurants but I don't think I can bring myself to go back again. Service has become terrible, had to wait 15 mins to watch the server help the 2 couples who came in after us, then ignore us again when I asked if we could order. Also the take away orders have become a rip off, I ordered a 3 taco meal with sides and barely got enough meat and such to make 2 tacos. Used to be great place WHAT HAPPENED???? read more

We went as a family Saturday night. I'm not a huge Mexican food fan and it surpassed expectations. Street tacos were great. The desert was great too we recommend the churros and mini sopaipillas. The staff was friendly as well. We will be back! read more

Food was amazing as always, which is why I'm writing this review. Immediately on arrival my family starts eating the chips/salsa. The salsa looks like the Costco brand w an added ingredient! I'm pretty sure it's MSG.. my entire family immediately became lethargic and fell asleep. We all woke up w pounding headaches. Even the Birthday girl turning 6. We lost an entire sat afternoon and evening. We slept,in complete agony. On top of that we had LAZY service, accompanied w heavy doses of eye rolls. None of our plates were taken away at any time. Our drinks went empty for way too long. When my husband asked her to take his empty glass she gave an eye roll. She said she'd come back and never did. A good 40 min later my husband asks her "can you please take this empty glass" she takes it w yup,another eye roll. My husband had mentioned our little one was having a bday. And she forgot. When reminded,another eye roll. When it was time to pay she was no where to be found. We had 3 people looking for her on their walkytalkies. The headaches started immediately! Blurred vision! Numbness in our hands and feet! Looked it up,it's MSG symptom complex. We've never had this happen at the original location. What ever Los Dos is doing to their food needs to stop. I have pseudo tumor and this almost took me out! ambiance was awesome. read more

NEW lunch special announced! pick two items for just $24.99 Why on earth would one pay $25 for a sub par lunch? at a Mexican food joint? Their food is nothing special. Almost a glorified Taco Bell but with a huge dollar tag attached. Their chili is SO hot that it covers up the bland everything else, and I couldn't find one piece of pork in the chili. This used to be a great local place we enjoyed going to. They have become greedy and their food is NOT good. Their servers are efficient. The noise level is high. read more

I was so excited to dine here. I ordered the 4 chicken street tacos. It sure didn't look like the picture above. There was scant chicken on each and barely any avocado. For the price I would have expected overall better. read more

This was the best Mexican food I've ever had. Only available Monday - Thursday, the barbacoa queso tacos are the best thing ever. Comes with consumé, rice, refried beans, and we had the Cadillac margarita, which was fantastic. Service was great and super sweet. Would obviously go back a million times. read more

Before coming in I was expecting to give this restaurant a 5 star review, their Instagram posts always look so amazing; but that's not the experience we received. The Service: for me this is the most essential part of a great experience, for a Sunday evening the waiters looked annoyed at any request our table had. Perhaps they had a long day, I get it; but our party did not feel welcomed. The food: the food was a solid 6/10. There was no true flavor to the dishes we ordered and we didn't get that wow factor that would make any person come back. The food needed more salt, seasonings. The best thing we ate was the Guacamole, that was spot on delicious. Would I come back? -I'd like to give another location an opportunity to change my mind, but I wouldn't come back to this Littleton location. read more
