My husband and I were pleasantly surprised, we enjoyed the buffet. The food was excellent and authentic. The tamale wasn’t great but everything else was fantastic. Good service too. We both said we found our go to Mexican spot. I’m Mexican and wasn’t expecting good authentic food but it was tasty.

This is My GO TO, they have a great buffet, most all your favorites plus Flan and other desserts. The place is always clean and the buffet is restocked as needed, if you need anything, the friendly staff will gladly get it, most times you don't have to ask, they will check in often. It is a family run, authentic Mexican restaurant, not Texmex, but there are a few items if you like that sort of thing.

We were seated in like under a minute. The chips and salsa were delicious, the salsa had a bit of a kick to it, but it was still delicious. My wife and I ordered the burrito grande, and I ordered the rice and beans on the side. That burrito was almost as long as the plate they brought it on. But it was freaking awesome, it was off the chain. We really enjoyed going to El Potro and we'll definitely be going back there. And they have a buffet which we'll be trying out.
