- Bone DaddyJanuary 27, 2020My baby brother brought me here to celebrate my birthday. Our best friend is Mexican and he said it didn't taste authentic. Their baracho beans were were too spicy though. 9.5/11
Combat CriticNovember 14, 2013El Potro was a pleasant experience ... El Potro is a welcome delight. Reasonable prices, excellent, service, quality food, decent drinks, and FREE CHEESE DIP, CHIPS, AND SALSA … HOOAH!- Combat CriticNovember 11, 2013Cheese and onion enchilada ala carte - $2.50. Mildly spicy sauce, plenty of cheese, and nice presentation. Very good food.
- Cat McGowanNovember 3, 2015Best tacos in town. The salsa is amazing, and the black beans are sooo good!
Jason BarrMay 18, 2014Great service! Affordable American style Mexican food. Free cheese dip too! You may request spicier food but be careful!
Enjoyed the atmosphere! The free cheese dip was a nice touch. The food was well flavored and tasted great!
Jerry CollinsFebruary 15, 2019First time, jalapeño cream cheese enchilada was great. Good chips and nice salsa.
Emily BlewJanuary 30, 2012The fajita enchiladas are pretty good, but plan on only eating one or sharing!
Reid PettyFebruary 3, 2013Bring earplugs! Loudest restaurant I've ever been in. Everyone is literally shouting.
Kameron DembyApril 10, 2012Was horrible service food and all of the above... Hair in the soup and tasted like gravy on my burrito
John-Francisco MariñoFebruary 3, 2012No good! They'll skip you and serve people who come in after you.
