Los Portales Mexican Resturant

I am amazed by the service I get at this little known delicious restaurant. I have had my share of ho-hum places that think they have what it takes to be called a Mexican Resturant. I am not sorry to say this place is like a earthquake, it always rocks my world and my need for taste inexpensive taste bud turning food. OUTSTANDING !!!!!! Glad it is what it is.. Love the wait staff.. Never have to wait for anything.. Good Job...

I love Los Portales! The prices are great, and the atmosphere is friendly and warm. It isn't a fancy restaurant, but is like being in someone's home.The staff is very friendly, and will accommodate special requests. My favorite dish is the ceviche tostadas, it is the best in town. I get the mixed ceviche, fish and shrimp with lime, jalapenos, and avocado- it is WONDERFUL. You would pay twice as much for this at the fancier restaurants, and I doubt it would be as fresh.

I also like the tamales, enchiladas, chili rellenos- everything is good.

I have never had to pay extra for a second round of chips, and I have been going to Los Portales for over 5 years. Don't miss this restaurant. It is plain on the outside, but it is a treasure- if you like true Mexican food.

stopped by here with a few people as it was a convenient place to grab a bite to eat. the plastic on the tables does give the feel of a local family owned place with no frills.  the chips, salsa and guac were fine. the salsa was very good but the guacamole was just alright.  i had the tacos de asada and it was  tasty but not fantastic.  my only complaint was that the tortilla was a bit dry.  i would probably go again but i'm not sure it'll be one of my top choices.
