Los Portales

Paying extra for a chips/salsa refill is kind of sad, but the Mexican food is very good here. Los Portales is solid Mexican food in the area. They are inexpensive compared to other food options in the area. I’ve tried the Los Portales Super Burrito and Margarita. The wet-style burrito was delicious and filling— yes, loaded with meat. The sauce seemed tomato-based and had a slight kick of spice. The menu was extensive and it was hard to choose. I was happy with the burrito and margarita. There is one complimentary basket of chips and salsa. The downside is having to pay for a refill of chips! They are family oriented and the service is great. Parking is very easy in the lot as it’s in a nearly abandoned plaza.

Today I worked hard, and I knew I would not cook. I stopped in for dinner, and it was exactly what I needed. I had chicken fajitas and a margarita. It was just right. I really admire the owners and staff for working during the pandemic so people could eat out. Their hard work and family atmosphere is apparent.

It is good mexican food. I wouldnt necessarily go out of my way to go to it. The only reason I give it a four is the seating. They sat our party of 6 at a four person table and there were about 10 other empty tables and three other groups of customers. It made for an uncomfortable lunch and we ordered less because of it.
