    This place is clean inside and looks nice. Don't let the old exterior fool you. The food was decently priced and their beans were awesome. Most Mexican food places have watery runny beans that are used just to cover your plate to make it look full. The cheese dip is phenomenal and they kept the chips coming. They could work a little in hostess customer service by means of when we were sat, they just laid the menus down and kept in walking. Didn't ask of table was fine and we almost followed her into the kitchen before we realized our menus were on a table behind us. The bathrooms are gross but who uses public restrooms anyway? Just don't go in there. They get a four star for not redoing the bathrooms. Otherwise it would be spot on.

    I grew up in Jackson and used to love going to "Los" to eat. This is definitely the best and most popular place in Jackson to have Mexican food! The family who owns it has been so successful that there are now 4 in the small city of Jackson. The cheese dip is the best! Their monster margaritas are awesome and well priced for the size.

My frineds from Phx didnt believe me and recently accompanied me ona trip to Jackson. They were amazed by Los and agreed it was way better than any mexican food they had received in Phx..

    I've eaten here more times than I could ever count! This place is great to meet up with friends and have a cheap and fast inexpensive meal. Or if you want to hang out for awhile they also have great margaritas! I missed this SO much when I went off to college and am glad I get to indulge in it yet again. If you're in a hurry and don't want fast food you could literally get in and out of here sometimes faster than you could a crowded drive thru!

    The WORST, WORST, WORST Tex-Mex food and horrible, rude service that I have ever experienced. My boyfriend and I were staying in a nearby hotel and walked to this restaurant, based upon Yelp reviews. As soon as we walked in the door, the waiter that seated us, acted as though we were bothering him for walking in the door. We ordered a beer and a wine and he just walked away. Came back by our table, slammed them down and walked on. Chips and salsa were brought by and the chips were stale and the salsa was like a flavorless tomato sauce. When we ordered the Taquitos Mexicana, they were delivered in the same manner and were just a pile of greasy, broken up small taquitos with very little chicken and very little beef in them (I will attach a photo of the plate). Rice tasted like bland plastic, the refried beans tasted like expired lard was used to make them. Nasty! We also ordered a shrimp quesadilla and it was barely edible. Shrimp was just ok and it was a flour tortilla filled with a mixture of cheap white cheese and a few small cold shrimp. Our rude waiter ran by again and motioned to us as if to say "can I take this away for you?" Clearly, together, we had not eaten but one bite of everything delivered, obviously we did not like it (or something could have been wrong with it), but he just took it away and handed us the check to pay. I can deal with bad food if the service is friendly and makes me glad that I at least tried it. The waiter(s) that we encountered here, just wanted us out and did not care if we liked the food or not. And, the crazy thing is, we ordered beer and wine (2 each, before we left), so you would think they would want us to stay and drink more. That is where they can make money. We were never so happy to pay our check and leave. I would NEVER go near this nasty, unwelcoming place again, even if I was starving to death. We never thought that the nearby Taco Bell looked so good.

    I remember eating at this Los Portales since I was a wee little one (20+ years). It has been around forever! Even before the Cici's Pizza that resides a few doors down. I've always enjoyed their food and great service. The only downside to this location is that it is a bit run down than rest of them... unless they've given it a face lift in the last 5 years.

    It was okay, just not spicy enough. I even asked for extra spice fish tacos, because the salsa was pretty much like tomato sauce...didn't seem like I got it.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
