El Potro Mexican Bar & Grill

The best. The food is fantastic and authentic. I have been coming here every year when in Chelsea since 2021 for either lunch or dinner. I have never been disappointed!! If in Chelsea, MA -- give it a try!!

Excellent Mexican food and extremely friendly and attentive staff! Great frozen margaritas! Highly recommend!!

I really like this place. Always solid.

Vegetarian and server did not respect the orders given! Gave wrong order and fought me on what I ordered even though we told him multiple times we are vegetarian. Would not recommend this location, terrible service and the guy is a terrible server. It’s even worse because we were the only ones there.

Just came here to have drinks with my girlfriend. The manager on duty was very disrespectful. I ordered a coconut margarita. The drink costed $13. When I received my check, I noticed that I was charged $16. I asked the manager about it. He told me that the extra $3 was for taxes even though as you can see on my receipt, I was already charged for taxes. He took the check. It took him 15 minutes just to change the amount. When I got my check back, he only took $1.14 off my check and said he wasn’t supposed to do that which is definitely not true. Avoid this place at all cost and go somewhere else. This management will try to get over on you.

Interior design is lovely, welcoming and warm. The staff are kind and professional..There is outside seating right in Union Square but 2 steak burritos for $40 is outrageous. Nothing particularly special about the product, probably sirloin..Very chewy..No chips and salsa included. I won't be back.

Great no-frills spot with good food and great service. Very chill outdoor patio. The servers were all very warm, friendly, and accommodating. My wife's veggie fajitas were too oily, but overall tasty and filling. My pollo asado was well cooked, grilled nicely, not dry, and good. We definitely will come again!

Some of the very best fajitas we've had around Boston!
Pretty good cocktails
Nice patio, but poorly lit after dark. They badly need some table lamps here or outside lighting.

It started with a bad margarita that was more like a sweet lemonade with the tequila that I didn't ask for ( I saw the bartender making my margarita) My friend and I ordered enchiladas con mole and tacos de adobada because we order at the Lowell location and yes....we wanted to compare and big mistake. I'm just going to end this review with...- we're not coming back-

Excellent, a highly recommended place. I went on Sunday with my mother and I was served by a very polite and friendly girl and the food was very delicious... here

Been here previously and had great food. On this occasion, we were seated and given water, chips and salsa... then nothing. I signaled to a server who gave me two thumbs up. After 20 minutes we finally placed an order but had to make it to-go.

Over, food was good but we were forgotten as customers.

Good luck with this place.
