If you haven't been here lately...go again!!! New renovations! New Management! This place went downhill fast about 3 years ago BUT they are SOOOO much better now. SO give them another try! You will be so happy you did!
September 2025
I've been going here for years, and it's stayed consistently incredible in flavor and portions. You can't go wrong with their solid breakfast burritos, which are never dry inside. Their lunch and dinner is solid as well, though I admittedly tend to eat breakfast there the most.
September 2025
Las Potrancas was great. The restaurant itself is small, so I imagine that it will fill up fast on busy days. We were able to just walk in, thankfully. The portions are HUGE for the price. Most of our party ended up taking food home. The service was quick and efficient.
