Great service, generous portions, fair prices, tasty food. If you need to know more, you should probably just show up and have a meal! I first visited Los Portales when I started a job in the area, the HR team took the team of new hires there for lunch. I fondly remembered the atmosphere was that of a fun Mexican restaurant, and the food certainly did not disappoint. Fast-forward 18 years, as I was in the area thinking about where to take my family for dinner, and I recalled the previous experience and wanted to pay them a visit again. I showed up with my family of 5 at peak dinner hour, around 6:30, on a Sunday. We were immediately seated in a comfy corner booth that was perfect for my wife and I to help the kids get their food from plate to mouth relatively successfully. They have a nice children's menu buried in the massive menu of authentic Mexican items. We easily picked out food for everyone, and had a very nice dinner experience. The portions are large, so we had a to-go box of what we couldn't finish. Nobody was upset about having it again the next day!

We went tonight after returning a rental car at BWI. Indeed I have not been here in 11 years. I do remember something about my first meal here. It's a story I told my wife at least twice when we ride by on our bikes when doing the airport loop. I went here with friends from work back in 2014. What I marveled about then, was that table of 20 folks ordered some version of 20 different things. When the food came out there was very little ability for any of us to identify what we thought we had ordered. The servers got it right (I guess). What we ate was good and I had no complaints.So tonight same, thing, I saw a lot of similar plates. My wife got a burrito combo and I got tacos carnitas. Our plates did look different becuase the tacos were pre wrapped in foil (likely made in batches and sit?) We both enjoyed our meals and plan to come back at some point if we are in the area. I don't think we would make a special trip (about 30 min trip from door to door), but if we were out on that side of the airport-yes we would be back.The other curious thing is that I don't believe a single thing about the decor changed. There are as expected the classic Mexico colors, and there is a"cowboy" vibe with some of the decorations. Pretty standard stuff. The chairs are big heavy solid wood- certainly could be the same ones from 11 years ago. The servers are all polite, young energetic folks that seem to all contribute to each other getting things done.The prices are very reasonable, even at this point of time in our weird recovery or not economic climate. We were in a bit early, 1700-ish. Early enough to get a harried young couple with a toddler and an ill parented baby that would let out a blood curdling scream every one minute and 44 seconds. That's a bug not a feature...

This used to be the go-to place for locally epic tasty fajitas. They are now a bit... Underwhelming in their overall taste and flavor. A bit chaotic with seating and hosting. Unorganized with kitchen and service logistics. And sadly, dirty. When swept, the floor could create its own Mexican fajita platter. The menus are sticky. The seats are caving in and the artwork on the walls are dusty. Not exactly painting a pretty picture for you to order and eat food that you are paying for with your hard-earned money.

The food and service were amazing. The seafood burrito was so flavorful and humongous. The fajita quesadilla was good but was only half of full circle quesadilla if that makes sense. The shrimp and ground beef tacos were delicious. There's so many things to try on the menu so I'll be going back next week. The Cadillac margarita was really good as well. This isn't a fancy establishment, real mom and pop feel.

Such a great Mexican restaurant. They used to have a great spot in Bowie called Mi Hacienda and we absolutely loved that place we found out they had other restaurants under different names. Los Portales & there's one near Marley Station Plaza Gilbratar I think

I went to lunch here with a few coworkers last Friday. I really did not enjoy my lunch and did not think the quality is what it should have been. I was told this restaurant was "related" to a couple other Mexican restaurants in the county which I have been to before and loved. I thought this was a step down. I had the taquitos mexicanos and ordered a side of rice. They forgot the rice and I had to remind them. The taquitos came with two rice and two chicken. They were okay at best. I only ate the chicken ones and half of one beef. I got a glass of water which tasted horrible. It was clearly tap water. I attempted to order and pay for a bottle of water at which time I was told this was the only water they had. It seriously tasted bad and I barely drank anything throughout the entire meal since I don't drink soda. I just was not a fan and won't be back.

Large space. We were seated immediately. Menu is impressive. Mole and beans are authentic. I got the carne asada. Sadly, the steak was well done and therefore tough, plus under seasoned. My companion got the mole enchiladas and said they were very good. I would eat there again but try something else. My companion would definitely eat there again.
