    one of 2 combo plates - chicken enchee, tamale, crispy relleno. all in green chili.

    parking can be a hassle. great service. the place is clean & not overly loud. pretty reasonably priced and many options. my only negative is that they don't offer too many a la carte items, but they do accommodate substitutions w/ no extra charge (for us, at this visit, not sure that is standard). we were all pleased with our dishes and recommend this location (the parker location is too gringoed-down in our opinion & WAY too loud).

    Great queso, salsa, fajitas and drinks. All the best staples of a good Mexican restaurant. I usually try chimichangas when I go to new places but my gf and I split fajitas. They only have fajita plates for one but it was enough to share.

    I'm new to the area and wanted to try a Mexican restaurant. This place is absolutely amazing! It was packed which is always a good sign but the food speaks for itself! Everything that came out perfectly! It was very flavorful, presentation was nice, and our server was amazing! We ordered the queso dip, mango mango Margarita, steak burrito, and for dessert sopapillas. Definitely my new favorite Mexican restaurant! I highly recommend this place!

    It was about an hour wait on a Friday night. The space was bustling and loud. Service was fast. The food was delicious. I do wish they took the time to melt the cheese on my mocajete but it was still good.

    Los dos potrillos overall is a solid Mexican restaurant that you can visit. I will say depending on which location can slightly make one better than the other. We usually visit the parker Los Dos Potrillos, but this time we tried the original location. Our go to dish is the molcajete with the spiciest sauce. It is a solid dish, but for some reason, this visit, the dish dish not hit the craving per usual. Due to picking the spiciest sauce, they informed us at this location that the sauce would be on the side. I wish it wasn't because the sauce simmering makes a huge difference. The carne Asada fries was alright. I wish the meat was seasoned a little more, but it isn't the worst and better than a mid carne asada fries. I can share that I may just be spoiled from the fries I am used to from San Diego. I know because this location is the first, the restaurant is a little darker than the other locations and homey. It may be more authentic as being in a restaurant in Mexico. Personally, I love Los dos but I have a preference of going to the parker location. And last note, the parker is harder because it is a busier lot.

    First time coming to this location, and I've got to say, it was a much better overall experience than the one I had at the Castle Rock location after they opened. We showed up for an early lunch and were seated right away. I ordered the combination fajitas, and my friend had a beef burrito. Drinks and chips/salsa came out fast. Our lunches came out soon thereafter. I could hear my fajitas sizzling...that's how they should be...sizzling on a scalding skillet, not served hot on a plate. Beef and chicken were very good. Tortillas are delicious. Lots of peppers and onions with really good flavor too. You could tell it was all cooked together, not separate and then assembled at the end. Service was friendly and prompt the entire meal. Will definitely be back.

    Fresh tortillas and copy of check out much was split between 3 people.

    To start, this is my Favorite restaurant chain in CO! This was my first time at THIS location and the service was a little disappointing compared to the Parker location. Never refilled chips and didn't ask if we wanted refills. After asking for more chips 3x, I had to get a little snippy and once I did, the service improved. This Los Dos location has the mom and pop Mexican feel which I love! When you walk in it's like walking straight into Mexico. I didn't see the tortilla making station but I might have missed it. Food is AMAZING! Some of the best queso in town. Skinny Margs are THE BEST. It's pricy but definitely worth it. Parking here is terrible.

    Good food but the prices have soared, and it seems the portions are smaller. From a family restaurant favorite to the problems of success.

For two people, ordered a set of 3 tacos (2x barbacoa and carnitas) and then another 3 tacos (asada, carnitas, and pastor), birria egg rolls, and a bean, cheese, and rice burrito. Not a big deal but they put all the tacos in one box and I was able to differentiate which 3 tacos that I ordered. This place is super stingy with salsa. They gave me 2 tiny containers for salsa and then when I asked for a couple more, the lady said she could only give me two more. :( Excited to try the food and started off great with a simple bean, cheese, and rice burrito but outside of that everything else was very meh. Not sure how but all the meats were so dry, I ordered braised/slow cooked meats (barbacoa and carnitas). Asada and pastor were okay as well. Everything lacked seasoning and the salsa didn't add much to the tacos either. Birria tacos were also dry and consommé needed salt to be added. Value was not bad at $37.64. Tacos were about $3-3.20 per

The fajitas were very tasty and delicious--no complaints at all there. The toasted michelada was okay; I might suggest a salted or Tajín rim to enhance the flavor a bit more. The atmosphere had great Mexican vibes that I really enjoyed. Overall, thank you for a wonderful experience. I'll definitely be back!

The only downside was that bar service was a bit slow, but it was clear the bartender was working hard and handling a busy crowd on their own. Despite this, the margaritas were made to perfection! The queso blanco is delicious, the salsa is a bit on the runny and mild side, but overall, good.. especially with the fresh, house-made chips. I ordered the fish and shrimp fajitas, and while the seafood was cooked perfectly, the overall dish was a bit under-seasoned and left me wanting more flavor. That said, the menu has so many great options that I'd definitely come back and try something different. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'm looking forward to giving them another visit.

We were left completely alone while all staff members were in the back the entire time we were dining. They even had another customer that came in that was completely ignored. He had to ring the bell twice to get service. A redeeming quality is that it's open late, which is nice if you've been out drinking.

It was a very poor first impression. After being seated, things didn't improve much. The staff working the bar and nearby tables were very short with us from the beginning and gave off the impression that they didn't want to be there. What made it worse was that the restaurant wasn't even busy at all. I ordered a michelada, and honestly it was one of the worst I've had. I've tried micheladas all over the Americas, and this one was terrible. I specifically asked for it to not be too spicy, was told "okay," and it still came out extremely spicy. I couldn't even drink it. For food, I ordered a burrito while my friend ordered fajitas and a quesadilla. The pictures looked great, but the food arrived cold. We had also ordered well before the two tables next to us, yet they received their meals at least 10 minutes before we did. The only positive part of the experience was the woman who brought our food out from the kitchen. She was very kind and welcoming, and honestly the best part of the restaurant. Back staff should probably be taking the orders. After our food arrived, nobody checked on us even once. We were never asked if the food was okay, if we wanted another drink, or if we needed water refills. The server only came back when it was time to pay. Walked by us multiple times and never took the time to stop to ask us how we doing. There was essentially no service throughout the meal. I will say the decor and atmosphere were beautiful. The restaurant did feel like a small piece of Mexico, which I appreciated. However, as a Latino, the hospitality and service did not reflect the warm and welcoming Latino vibe I expected. Overall: great decor, but the service and food were extremely disappointing. There are many other Mexican restaurants nearby offering much better experiences. This place seriously needs to improve its hospitality and customer service.
