Dos de Oros

Dos de Oros is located at the intersection of Peoria St. and E. Colfax Ave. It's in the parking lot just south of Colfax, on the west side of Peoria.

It's very busy, despite the Spanish-only menu, and so I didn't get to do my usual little interview about names and origins. Four tacos and a Mexican soda to go, and the tacos were great! She asked if I wanted everything on them, and that proved to be rice, of all things, and a pico de gallo sort of salad.

The name Dos de Oros means "Two of Coins" in the Mexican playing card deck, based on the Tarot, and it's also the name of a Mexican band.

How refreshing! This is a super fun topic to read, and even sip! Who says trucks and truck equipment is the only important topic? By golly,
what’s your brand, what tastes best, is important to all of us.
Thanks to Pilot and to Fleet Owner for reminding us of the simpler topics of interest to truck operators.
Thanks,

Does this place serve any California style Mexican food or just the Denver/New Mexico stuff.One way to tell is do they put green chilli (enchilada sauce) on everything. I'm still trying to find a place that sells good So Cal style mexican. If anyone knows of any please let me know.
