As a foodie, they make the best Carne Asada in the area hands-down and their salsa is great too.

Great service, selections, and incredibly delicious food! The atmosphere was wonderful, with great music and decor. The service was top notch, very friendly and attentive without being over the top at all. The food was quickly prepared, and very nicely served with generous portion sizes and most importantly it was absolutely delicious. Loved our experience here, and can't wait to come back on the regular.

We came here for my sister and her husband's birthday celebration. It's a nice small, cozy atmosphere. The food, the music, and our sever Santos and his team were great. They were great at accommodating our big group. Drinks were fast and food came out fresh and EVERYTHING was so delicious. I was never a big fan of Mexican food, but El Potro has changed my mind. Thank you for a great time. We really enjoyed it and will definitely be coming back.

We were very pleased. The food was very straightforward and you get a generous portion for the price. We got a sampler plate and three entrees between three people and had food leftover for the next day.
