" Visiting Los Portales is always a joy! The staff are courteous and accommodating. The tacos here really stand out—perfectly seasoned and authentic! While I found the chips slightly on the bland side, the main dishes are filled with flavor. Can't wait to go back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently went to Los Portales with family and we were very satisfied! The food is authentic and well-seasoned, especially the salsa and guacamole. The staff were friendly and welcoming, certainly contributing to a pleasant dining experience. I’ll definitely be back, especially for the tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a huge fan of Mexican food, and Los Portales did not disappoint! I ordered the carnitas tacos, and they were fantastic! The flavors were spot on and felt very authentic. The ambience of the restaurant was lively and comfortable—the perfect combination for a great dinner. Will definitely be returning soon for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time at Los Portales, and I enjoyed the experience overall. The decor was colorful, adding to the festive mood. The nachos we started with were good, but my main dish of chicken enchiladas was lacking the expected flavor kick. The staff was great though, very helpful and attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic food and lovely service at Los Portales! The chips were crunchy, and the guacamole was fresh. I could have eaten that all day. The enchiladas were rich in flavor and very authentic. It felt like I was dining in a family member's home rather than a restaurant. I highly recommend this place for anyone craving real Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Los Portales for the first time last week, and it was quite an experience. The service was attentive, but the food, while tasty, unfortunately lacked the spice and authenticity I was hoping for. I expected a little more from the salsa as well. But the ambiance was lovely, and it has potential for a revisit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Los Portales exceeded my expectations! The staff were incredibly warm and the food was simply delicious. I ordered the tacos al pastor, which were perfectly seasoned and came with fresh cilantro and onions. The margaritas were fantastic as well. I liked how they offered a variety of options for both meat lovers and vegetarians. Definitely a place I will be recommending to all my friends! " (*Curated Review*)
