The food is absolutely incredible--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with so much care. Everything we've tried has been fantastic, and it's the kind of place we find ourselves wanting to come back to again and again. Downtown Littleton has plenty of places to eat, but Cencalli is the one we recommend every time. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. Do yourself a favor and go!

We arrived early at 5pm and it was already packed! The secret is out! Service was friendly. Margs were delicious. Good was great. Loved that the Burria tacos are crispy and not so oily that so many places get wrong. Chips, salsa and guacamole were great. Breakfast burritos all day which made my friend and husband very happy. I would probably get the tacos next time. We will definitely be back! Parking was easy to find on the street.

Went for the taco Tuesday deal. $2 tacos!? Yes please ! Ordered the queso fundido with chorizo --…read moreimpressively bubbly when delivered -- didn't find any chorizo. Once it cooled it became thick and coagulated. Not super appealing. I ordered 1 pescado and 1 vegan, not normally my jam but I thought I'd try it. One bite and had to set it back down. Tasted old refrigerator -- and no salt. It was quite disgusting. The Pescado was ok - pretty much what I would have expected. Not warm though. My wife ordered 1 al Pastor and 1 carnitas taco. Both were room temperature. Told the waitress and she brought another Al Pastor and it was the same temperature. The carnitas appeared to be yesterday's meat so hard and inedible. -- she lost her appetite and didn't eat anything else. Long story short, we won't be returning to Palenque ( note: the mgr removed the al pastor from the bill )

Food was really darn good, nice crispy relleno the way I like it, lots of chicken in the chicken burrito & enchilada, and just a pretty good meal all around. Prices were typical, but still got out under $70 for 3 large meals and a soda with a 18% tip.

My husband ordered the carnitas burrito and the green chile had no flavor; it literally didn't taste like anything at all somehow. I ordered carnitas sopes - let me tell you, their beans are GOOD!! - but not much here either by way of flavor either. And skip the tomatillo salsa; it is actually truly not good and opt instead for more of their red salsa. The red salsa is not spicy at all, but has a lot of really good flavor! We would go back, but not in any hurry to do so.

They took our drink order, were out of what we wanted so got something else. Then had to flag down a person to take our food order. When we got our food they gave us plastic spoons and said they ran out of silverware! We both got shrimp which ended up being horribly over cooked and fishy. After 2 hours sitting there I heard the server tell the new people next to us they didn't have silverware and gave them plastic also. Such a bad experience after the first time being so good.

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.

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.

To start, we were seated right next to the back door with an alarm peeping the entire time, despite the restaurant being practically empty. The service was disappointing from the beginning. It took quite a while for our server to greet and take our order, and we didn't receive enough menus or water for everyone at the table. Once the order was placed our server disappeared. No follow-up, no check-ins and the when food finally arrived meals and bills were mixed up. I had hope to place a to-go order, but the lengthy wait left me out of time. I later return specifically to place that to-go order hoping for a better experience, but unfortunately it was more of the same. The constant "honey" " darling" and "sweetheart" felt force and insincere, almost mocking . Which only added to the frustration. If you are looking for good Mexican food and don't mind poor service or less-than pleasant dining experience, this is the place for you! If customer service matters you might want look elsewhere

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.
