I travel to this area at least once a month and I'm striving to find a regular place for my monthly travels to Denver. This spot was less than a mile from my hotel and I wanted to trial... First, I noticed that they carry several additive free tequila choices! I was excited to enjoy a couple of pours and possibly some food. It took several minutes to get an order....after the bartender acknowledged my arrival. Once he asked for my order and I immediately asked for a pour over ice (simple)....it took several more minutes to actually get my drink. The common theme was that he was acknowledging all the regular customers (by name) and catering to their orders and conversations. Once I caught on, I paid attention more....regulars got immediate attention and anyone new had to wait....one person sat for 20-minutes at the bar before his presence was acknowledged. I asked for another pour and included that I wanted my tab with the point. 10- minutes for the pour and another 15-minutes for the tab..... I wanted to make this a regular spot.....nope minimum tip and never coming back. Long term success is treating everyone with the same service. Best of luck. More time working the orders in front of you instead of yacking your jaws and "look at me" mixology drink actions to look cool. The only reason I gave 2-stars was for the tequila options. Do Better with service. read more

I went to Los Dos Potrillos expecting Mexican food and accidentally attended what felt like a playoff game. The place was so loud I half expected someone to start the wave. The food was... fine. Very fried. My taco salad hovered somewhere just above Taco Bell on the culinary ladder, which is technically an achievement. To be fair, the service was great--friendly and attentive the whole time. Unfortunately the air quality was less great. Someone nearby ordered fajitas and the smoke plume was so intense I started coughing and had to step outside like I'd wandered into a campfire demonstration. All in all: good people, average food, stadium acoustics, and fajitas that double as a smoke machine. read more

Solid choice for chain Mexican. Nice ambiance and ample space. There are plenty of specials and the menu has varied offerings. Chips and salsa were good, salsa definitely had a kick. Really enjoyed the house margarita, got the peach flavor and it was very potent. A nice pick for a quick and casual meal. read more

This was our first time at the Colorado location. Very clean and nice inside. We were seated right away. We decided to order a pitcher of house margs $33 and well worth it.They were good! Not too sour. The food was all good! Crispy taco shell and tostada. The green chili and red enchilada sauce was delicious. The food was a bit pricey, but I'm sure it is because of the location. We will still be back. Everything was so good! read more

Food was average. Beginning to become a less than ideal Mexican restaurant. The quality is slipping and yet the cost is not. High prices, low expectations. They've been better. read more

I love chile rellenos and on a recommendation I tried one here as part of the # 10 combo. The combo included an enchilada, beef and bean burrito and one chili rellenos. The enchilada was good as well as the burrito but the star of the meal was definitely the rellenos. Lots of gooey cheese with a large chili in a crunchy delicious wrapping. Probably one of two as far as best chili rellenos I've ever had. Everything was good, the chips and salsa were good as well as the chili that smothered my combo plate. The service was excellent, our waters were regularly refilled and a fresh batch of chips and salsa to replace the now consumed ones . I was told by my lunch mates that the house margaritas were very good but again I was the designated driver so no joy for me . The place was clean, affordable, ample serving size, good service and very good food. I wish Los Dos Portillos was near me. read more

The new location at Colorado blvd & I-25 is a huge disappointment! I've been looking forward to not having to drive to the County line or the Highlands Ranch location and gave the new location a chance. Actually 4 chances and each time the food was disappointing and 3 times the service was terrible! I really wanted it to work, but I'm done wasting my money! My last visit was so bad, I told the hostess about my experience with the bartender... humiliating to have to wave servers down to order, ask for chips & salsa, a napkin, fork, tortillas, another drink, & the check.... Food was disappointing. Never again! read more

I love Los Dos but this is the worst location. The skinny marg tastes like chemicals. The service isn't as fast or attentive. However, the food has the same great taste. The building is new and pretty on the inside. It was a beautiful day and had no outside seating available, which was disappointing but if there're understaffed I get it. read more

Los dos is the best! Had been to other south denver locations, first time trying this one. The inside decor is really nice, service is fast and friendly. Their food is top notch! Such an upgrade from the Mexican spot that used to be here. read more

Dined at Los Dos Portillos for an early dinner and it's my first time back at the formerly known as Hacienda (Uncle Julio's). The restaurant is a lot brighter and warmer feeling inside. Service was really good. After being seated the hostess then radios the waiter or waitress that a table was seated. Love this idea because they show up right away with chips and salsa. Our waiter took our drink order and let us look at the menu. I got the chicken taco salad and my husband got the beef taquitos. The food came out within 10 minutes. The taco salad was a good size and you won't leave feeling hungry. I would recommend for sure if you like a good salad. I'm pretty sure this place gets busy on a Friday or Saturday night. read more

My new favorite Mexican restaurant! And the best part? They are local and family owned! Everyone is super friendly and are knowledgeable of the menu. If you come here you have to get the chili relleno nachos. Don't make the mistake of not getting it. This dish is one of the reasons why I keep coming back. Their margaritas are also the best I've had! For our entree I've only had the steak fajitas which are also a 10/10. This restaurant so good that my partner who typically does not enjoy Mexican food, now craves to come here! We will be coming back very often! read more

Great Upgrade!! This is a wonderful upgrade from Hacienda. The interior has been updated - it feels modern, fresh, and open. Service is super fast! Loving the jumbo shrimp fajitas!This is a win!! read more

Very impressed, the wait on a Friday was only 20 minutes without a reservation. The mole sauce was made wonderfully, perfect combo of sweet and savory. Clean and decked for the holidays. :) read more

This place was good but left a lot to be desired. We had drinks and food. The staff were incredible and super friendly! The service wasn't bad at all. The place is super cute and nicely decorated. They did a great job with the decor! The drinks were amazing! We got the pomegranate drink and the Cantarito. Both drinks were amazing! They were strong and flavorful. The food was disappointing. I ordered 4 street adobada tacos and they were lacking in flavor. The tortillas weren't packing a punch, neither was their salsa. The cilantro and onion was a bit dry, which I assume happened due to my tacos sitting under the heat lamp. I added all the limes on the plate to a taco, and I even had to add salt, just to get it to a better place. They were fine. I wouldn't get them again and would try something else. We also got the Camarones Los Dos Portrillos dish. The shrimp was decent, you can't got go wrong with bacon and shrimp! However, as a whole the plate was just lacking something to make it a stand out. I think this is a great place for happy hour! Maybe an appetizer. Definitely will be coming back for drinks! read more

Stopped in on a Friday for late lunch. I had been when it was Hacienda and they did great brightening up the place and I think made a bigger center bar. With that said the booths are all soooooo tight. They have big booths that I think feed 8-10 but I saw a group so scrunched in. I think the builder missed measured because you can barely fit your feet in without kicking someone across from you. I ordered the steak and shrimp and the shrimp had a hot sauce it came in. It was very hot. The steak had no flavor whatsoever not even salt and pepper and was so grisly with a very hard knife to cut. I ate a few bites and just ate rice and beans. Got the Sandia margarita and was a short glass for $18!!!!! Like damn. Overall wasn't impressed. read more

Service/vibe: We were so excited for Los dos to open as we have seen the construction going on for months! We went on a Saturday night around 5pm so prime time. The wait was an hour and a half but they got us in around 45 minutes in! The whole vibe is pretty cute we sat in the bar area. Our waiter was really nice and on top of it. Food: The salsa was spicy (even for us heat levers so use carefully!). The queso was perfect could have eaten the whole bowl to myself. Steak fajita tacos were amazing! We will pass on the enchiladas next time. They had a wide selection of desserts that a lot of people were getting- we will have to try one next time! read more

First timer. They have taken the closed Hacienda restaurant and remodeled it. New tables and furnishings. The restaurant is cleaner, brighter and fresher. It has an "authentic" feel to it. Mostly all the servers are Latino. The menu has lots of Mexican food choices and the food items appear to be traditional. So how was the food? It was good. Yes, they do offer free chips and salsa. Hmmm, is it pricey? Yes and No. In today's world you would call it moderate. Most of the food items are priced in the high teens and twenties. I believe we all have gotten used to those numbers for a nice, not fancy, Mexican food restaurant. What about the Tequila? Lots of top shelf tequila, The good stuff runs in the $16 to $21 range for a cocktail. They have a nice selection of house made beers. I enjoyed a light colored lager. I'll return. read more

I typically have only been to the Highlands Ranch location. I do feel as though that location had better food quality and an overall better experience. I ordered chicken fajitas and a house marg. The marg had only a few specks of salt on the rim which wasn't a huge deal. The fajitas were very oily which I typically did not have that issue at the other location. The server was also EXTREMELY rude. I still tipped very well and panned it off to him having a bad day, but honestly it really impacted my experience. He was almost dismissive in a way, snatching the menus away, not really acknowledging us, everything we asked or ordered he seemed upset by. I was bringing my friend here for the first time since I told them how much I loved the other location and I feel it ruined their experience and opinion of los dos which is unfortunate. The inside is nice and looks new that's so great. Lots of seating options as well. read more

We wanted an adventure and were craving Mexican food, so we decided to try this place. It was quite the hike from where I live but worth the drive. It was Saturday afternoon and good weather to boot, making the patio for this location a popular choice. Inside the place was clean, busy and brightly lit. We were seated at a table near the entrance. Our server was kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He really went above and beyond. This place does the whole birthday singing thing and put a sombrero on the birthday person and take a photo. We didn't experience it personally but watched the whole production from our table. It created a welcoming, happy atmosphere all around. After we reviewed the extensive menu, it was a tough choice to place our orders. So many options. They brought over warm tortilla chips that were heavenly. I liked them for the fact that they weren't salty. I liked them so much that we devoured a basket and then they refilled it. They also brought over salsa. The salsa was way too spicy for us. So the brought over a mild salsa that was still too spicy for our taste. We are wimpy when it comes to spice. For our entrees my friend ordered the steak fajitas and I ordered the steak burrito. They were both delicious and more than enough food. On both meals we did find the cut of meat a bit tough to chew. The fajitas were plentiful and hot. They were your typical fare. The steak burrito was covered in green chili sauce that I found a bit spicy. I also wish it had had more cheese and beans. But excellent all the same. read more

Not your typical Los Dos - the food portions are very small compared to other locations - the steak fajitas and street tacos were particularly sad. I frequent the Parker and Littleton restaurants and this is the worst location I've been to, I gave them 2 tries since they opened. We had bad service at the bar tables, our server wouldn't come back to check on us or take our drink order until I had to get the manager. The restaurant is beautiful though! I hope they can up their standards to match their other locations. read more

Went to Los Dos Potrillos for the first time and the food was good, the service was alright and the Cantarito drink I ordered lacked of alcohol, tasted more like orange juice combine with Sprite. I wasn't happy about especially because those drinks costs $17. It wasn't to busy and the ambience was very traditional. What I really liked the most was that the food came so quickly. I'll back again because the smothered burrito was on point. read more

Los Dos has many locations across south Denver and I'm so glad that they took the old Hacienda and turned it into a new location. Their drinks can be a little bit expensive but Monday through Thursday from 4 to 6p they do have house margarita, wine, and beer on happy hour. I love their chili relleno nachos and I make sure to get it as an appetizer every single time I go! chili rellenos chopped up and topped with green chili! You can do no wrong! the servers there are always so nice and the inside is always loud and poppin! read more

Chili rellano was cold and mushy. Green chile smotheirng its was cold. Fajitas came out cold not even sizzling?!?! Unreal. The server just smiled like that was normal.

So glad the former Hacienda location is replaced with a Los Dos! Have been to the Parker location several times but think this will be the new go to. The location has more seating options and seems more spacious than other locations. We sat at the Bar and Wilmer took great care of us. We ordered my go to chile relleno nachos with a side of carne asada. They asked how we wanted our meat cooked, which was new to me, as other locations don't ask this. The steak came out perfectly medium rare. The margaritas were also delightful. Be sure to check the website against the cocktail menu as several drinks appear on the web but aren't on the menu. Overall, excellent! read more

This place has changed hands many times in the past few years and now it has landed on Los dos Potrillos! While I was a Hacienda fan, I was happy to give Los Dos a try and I'll have to admit I have not been disappointed. The food is always excellent. I even tried their breakfast burrito during this last outing and loved it. Along with that, the drinks are excellent. If you like Mezcal, I'd highly recommend the Mezcalita. We have already become frequent visitors in this establishment. read more

This location recently opened in April and was just as busy as their other locations. The estimated wait wasn't bad, and we lucked out because open seating was available at their large bar area. The servers were busy but continued to check in on us. The Elegante margarita was strong--Espolon Reposado tequila, citronage, and Grand Marnier. If you plan on drinking more than one margarita, I suggest getting one of their pitchers to share since one 16oz drink is $15 and the pitcher is $45. My chile relleno plate was tasty and filling. I am glad there is a closer Los Dos. I will be returning. read more

Los Dos is my go to for good Mexican food in the Denver metro area. We usually go to the Parker location because that is the closest to our house, however this new Denver location is close to my work. YAY!! I am so excited to have a new location so close to me. I just wish they had lunch specials. That is my only complaint. Other than that their staff is super friendly, the food is delicious and the quality holds up with the other locations and they have turned this building around so it is now open and vibrant. They have truly made a name for themselves here in the Denver area and I am here for it. If you need some help on what to ever get for an appetizer, check out their chile relleno nachos. they are AAAAmazing! read more

Out of all of the restaurants of los dos potrillos, this is the absolute best one. The food is better, the services better, everything is better at this location. This is the only Los Dos potrillos location that I come to and that I bring family from out of town and if we host a party. . My food came out on time. Exactly the way I order it. Same with my drink. My server was wonderful. And the manager came back to see if everything was OK. And so that makes it Absolutely number one in my book. This one is the one to come to. thank you. Love Dis on Mexico and Colorado Boulevard. read more

What a great new restaurant! Fresh made tortillas, amazing hot sauce and fresh made chips. I had the crispy Chile rellenos with extra green chile and my wife had the chicken fajitas. Both were EXCELLENT! This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant! Will go back often! read more

there was a misunderstanding on my order and I requested something else. The waiter, Antonio, after 30 minutes told me the kitchen was backed up. Another 15 minutes and Tony the manager stopped by our table to ask how everything was and I told him. He said 'Oh" and walked away. My friends finished eating and the waiter stopped by and said he would not charge me for my food...duh???? but he still charged me $5 for my beverage. I have never experienced as terrible service. read more

What has happened? Prior to this location opening we had great meals and service at other locations. Initially this location was OK but not as good as the other location. We that it was just "kinks" of opening but things have continued to go down hill. Today food took more than 30 minutes, during mid-afternoon (so not crowded) and was cold when it arrive. Service was horrible...Could not find waitress to inform of unacceptable food quality. I went to the hostess and had her find our waitress. The food was "remade" but still unacceptable but waitress never returned to check. No check was brought to the table so after 20 minutes, we again went to the hostess to pay our bill! read more

First time visitor, but I will definitely be back! Gorgeous restaurant with amazing Island bar. Really great food and service, and very fair and reasonable pricing, especially since the restaurant space and decor is very upscale and beautiful. Amazing bar with proprietary private label draught beer selections. The bartender Julian helped me choose a new (to me) private label draught beer that was a perfect fit for what I wanted. Very convenient location near Colorado Station, where I-25, S Colorado Blvd, and E Evans all meet. I live in the neighborhood, but definitely worth going out of your way for! I'll be back! read more

Great food. Great value. And our waiter, Gordon, was exceptional: warm, friendly, fun and great suggestions from the menu.

Service was very efficient. Ambiance was pleasant on their outdoor patio on this warm night. We shared ceviche, which was a huge serving. It seemed that it had been put together hours earlier and the avocados on the side were looking tired. That aside, the ceviche was good. We both enjoyed the coin margaritas. We also shared taquitos and they were delicious. The place was packed when we were there on a Saturday night at 5 PM! read more

The atmosphere at this new location is lovely. The service was friendly and helpful. The food was great. I loved the fiesta nachos to which I added barbacoa rather than any of the listed meat options. The barbacoa was tender but a bit plain. Another time I probably would skip the meat and ask for extra cheese. They could have used more cheese. My friend raved about the shrimp tacos. I might try those another time. read more

I just don't get it why people like this place...maybe because it's all shiny and new. The staff are super friendly, almost a too friendly with forced smiles on all their faces. It felt awkward and just downright uncomfortable, subservient like. The food was absolutely disgusting. The beans have the strangest flavor and fat coverage in my mouth and were super runny. The guacamole tasted like other vegetables and not like avocados, plus had a strange super shiny glistening glow to it. What was as the worst were the chicken fajitas that were super dry, chewy and tough. The flavor was ok, but it felt like the chicken was reheated or had been overcooked. My margarita was so salty that it tasted like salt water with juice. My husband even said that the food at Taco Bell is 10 times better than this. Forget Taco Bell...La Loma or Ni Tuyo here we come! What were we thinking?!?? read more
