We used El Potrero for catering an open house! Food was delicious and received many compliments on the burritos and enchiladas. It all was great! Thank you! Food was ready when stated, came in foil pans that were easily placed in chaffing dishes to keep warm. Will definitely recommend to others.

Stopped in for lunch with an old friend. I had scanned the website menu the day before and knew I wanted the #5 lunch special - one chimichanga with rice and beans and a guacamole salad for $8.99. At the restaurant this option did not exist on the menu and I had to order off the "build your own". Got the same thing minus the guacamole salad and it cost be $2.00 more ($10.99). What's up with that?

This place is the best. The staff is always friendly, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming (and they keep the music at a nice background volume so you don't have to yell so your dinner companions can hear you). Definitely recommend them (and their desserts!) and we will visit often.
