    Barbacoa and tongue street tacos
    Rebecca S.

    With it close to home, and the positive reviews, I really was hoping this place was going to be a 5. Maybe it's because we are Texans and want big, bold flavors, but we felt the seasoning was bland. The meat was definitely tender, but needed salt and flavor. I really enjoyed the beans and rice. We had the barbacoa, tongue and chicken street tacos. The tongue was my favorite. Service was very friendly and helpful.

    We stopped in here in a whim. My girlfriend and I were hungry and saw this place. We both love Mexican food and new places are always fun to try. We are sure glad we stopped in. The staff was extremely pleasant and the seating area was clean and wh maintained. Our food was made fresh and was served hot and extremely well prepared. The portions were huge and I had to get half of mine for the road. The beans and rice were especially good and the prices were reasonable. Plenty of private parking right in front of the building. We will gladly return to this restaurant in the very near future.

    The rest of the menu.

    The place is small and easy to pass by because it's in a small strip mall style storefront. Most of the business is people taking food to go while I was there. The house red hot sauce has good flavor with just a touch of heat on your gums. The steak tacos were full and tasty but needed a little more onion. Glad I stopped in, food has a real "taco truck" feel to it and who has ever had a bad taco truck taco?!?!

    It is a small, unassuming restaurant that does a lot of takeout business. Parking is a bit easier left of the entrance next to the car lot. But the menu is solid, and the booths are comfortable if you eat in. The food is great quality and tasty, and the plates are full. Their French toast and pancakes were perfect for my son, who is not a huge fan of Mexican food. They have several Jarritos flavors and sangria grape soda, too. You order and pay, and the food comes out quickly, so showing up hungry shouldn't mean you turn hangry. If you are looking for a solid Mexican restaurant with great flavors and good portions you should check them out. They will be there churning out delicious food.

    Took this picture of the breakfast menu on the wall this morning. They also have breakfast burritos that are made fresh.

    They open at 6 AM so this is a great place to grab breakfast on your way out for a Colorado adventure. Breakfast burritos are made fresh and you can see other items on the menu here. They also serve lunch and dinner.

    BIG BREAKFAST BURRITO- smothered- Yummm!
    Dave R.

    Awesome Breakfast Burrito- coming from a spice loving Gringo!...they offer additional sauce, but the flavor blend and heat level was perfect to get me through the day- hopefully! Its a little hole in the wall across from the street from the Exxon and Hyundai dealership. Clean and simple- complete with the mexican music coming from the backroom where the jabbering/laughing ladies prepped for the day. The menu looks inviting, so I will definitely be back for lunch and dinner when in the area

    Oh, Mama Sol! I stopped at this place after receiving a recommendation from a local.....a barista at a nearby Coffee shop stated it was his favorite local joint. Colorado is known for plentiful Mexican joints, so it was no surprise that this place was another one. When I arrived I had no idea where to park. The place was set in a strange street-side strip with to clear parking. I found a place next to the building and headed in. Small shop, kids hanging around the shop and a very young person at the register who waited on me the entry time I was there.....clearly a very family-owned business. Clearly "mom" Or someone was running the kitchen in the back. I ordered a combination platter....basically I was able to choose 3 items as a meal. I chose a chicken taco, bean Gordita, and a burrito. It was served in very little time. It was a lot of food too! The taste was outstanding. This is exactly why I ask for locals recommendations when I'm out of town! Real authentic flavor. Bottom-line. Get past the aesthetics. Get past the tiny non-polished restaurant. It's about the food & this place can deliver. Not only was it tasty, I was so stuffed afterwards.

    Tacos: chorizo, pork, chicken  Chips and salsa

    Service is great, food is even better. Simple and fresh ingredients and the meat is *perfect*. Pork taco was outstanding. I will definitely be back.

    HAPPY BELLYS

    best street tacos i've ever had! the barbacoa and the shredded tacos were so good and authentic! definitely our new favorite spot to get tacos!!!

    Bean burrito & guacamole tostada
    Deborah N.

    Simple and fresh food; friendly service. Good lunch take away. Got the combo with bean burrito and guacamole tostada. Big portion for one price. Plan to return to try their breakfast burrito.

    Taco plate to go.  4 tacos, beans, rice and salsa.

    I went to Smack Daddy's food truck and tried some of their food…read more Smack Daddy's is parked in the parking lot across the street from scoop ice cream shop. I ordered the quesadilla with carne asada and it came with two sides of sour cream, one mild salsa, and one hot salsa. It also came with garnish on the side of lettuce and tomatoes. The quesadilla was very good it had cheese, carne asada, onions, and some other peppers. It was not super spicy but definitely had a lot of flavor in my opinion. The cheese was extremely rich and made for a great quesadilla! The burger was very good, it came with a big side of fries that were very seasoned! The fries had a lot of salt, pepper, and other spices on it. I love salty food and thought it was perfect. But some people might think it was too much so you may want to ask light salt or no seasoning at all. The burger was very good and every bite had great flavor with the smack sauce, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and onion. I enjoyed both items that I ordered and had plenty left over to eat later. It was a little pricey as I paid $28 for the quesadilla and burger but it was reasonably priced for the portion size and quality of the food. I just expect things to be a little cheaper when it comes to food trucks. The service was very good, I had an older Hispanic couple running the truck when I visited and they were very kind, professional, and put love into the food. The ambiance is cool, I mean it is a food truck with no seating. They have some chairs outside but no table. They also sell drinks, the options that I saw were Coke and Pepsi. I would definitely give snack daddy's a try if you are around downtown Littleton and want to support this small business. I will definitely be back to try some more of the menu.

I have determined one really can't go wrong. This time we had the pupusas and smothered breakfast burritos, yes, for supper. The pupusas have that only-mom's homemade kind of flavor. I will be craving queso-chicharrón in the future. The smothered breakfast burritos, using a nice balance of fresh potatoes, eggs, and meat of choice, had layers of flavor, topped off with a delicious blanket of green chili sauce. I was not disappointed by the bacon in mine which was even crispy. In the past we have thoroughly enjoyed street tacos, smothered burritos, and chile rellenos- all great! Our server was attentive and obviously proud of their product (rightfully so). It is a small space and the seating limited but acceptable. We moved from booth to table, as the booths were pretty uncomfortable. This is a small thing in light of the excellent food and always very friendly staff. If comfort is an issue, don't pass on takeout! It was a nice evening and I look forward to introducing other friends to this dining experience.

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.

The host was welcoming and was provided with chips and salsa right away. The server was quick to welcome us, taking our drink orders, and providing us with more time with the menu due to our first visit. The menu is extensive and has the standard offerings of other local Mexican restaurants. Lunch included the Chimichanga with green chili and sides of rice and beans, and the other a combo plate of the Beef Burrito, Cheese Enchilada and Pork Tamale. The server asked if we wanted mild, medium or hot green chili, which was a nice offering. For us the hot green chili was very good, with enough heat to make us "sweat", but not overpower our taste buds. The medium was just about right for nice flavorful meal with the lingering heat. All the meals were served quickly and piping hot and had nice flavor all around. Overall, the lunch was good and service excellent, and parking was great with plenty of off-street parking. I would not hesitate to return when in the mood for some consistent and comfort Mexican food, and great service. Tips for your visit: Lunch time is a slower time for them, so both times I visited we were able to sit and visit with friends without feeling rushed.
