El Potro Mexican Restaurant

Food was Great and more than fairly priced. Wife had wings (VERY CRISPY) and I had Carne Asada. Large portions. SERVICE FROM TATIANA was OUTSTANDING!!! Go for the food and I hope you get Tatiana for service!!!!! It’s a win and super win.

We come about once a week, driving by 2 other Mexican restaurants to get here. The service is always top-notch and attentive. Nathaly and Tatiana are pros and always make us feel welcome and well cared for. Oh, and the food, beer and margaritas are excellente!

They really did an amazing job adjusting my meal on my plate because I couldn't eat any carbs. So, in my fajitas, they grilled vegetables and added a salad with guacamole, and the flavor was on point. Thank you, we will be back. Oh! The skinny Margarita was amazing

This place always makes me and my family feel so welcome and we appreciate their attention to detail. They are quick and they work as a unit. They are always on point. I come here often but they deserve praise for their awesome food and service. It’s consistent and that’s hard to find these days.

This restaurant is so consistent. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Seriously great food and atmosphere! Saul was our server tonight and was stellar, just like the other servers here we’ve had on the other nights.

We love the food at El Potro, and always get great service. Our server tonight, Jose, kept our drinks filled, chips and salsa topped off and checked on us often. We highly recommend El Potro for authentic and delicious food!

Our server Jose’ was very attentive, prompt and friendly. We enjoyed the live music and the food is more than decent. Overall well worth coming here again

Our waitress was amazing! Super attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect. She really made the experience enjoyable. Will definitely be back!

Ask for Tatiana & you will not regret it. She’s wonderful & full of life, makes the best margaritas & is so much fun. The food is great, get the potro fajitas. The portions are massive. I love this place & I love Tatiana!

El Potro is our favorite neighborhood restaurant. The food is excellent, well priced, and served by an attentive team that makes sure your every need is met. Saul was our exceptional waiter this evening. All of their employees are great but he's the best.

We love El Potro, it’s the restaurant we visit the most. All the servers are always excellent, the food is great, the atmosphere is inviting and everyone is so kind. Nathaly has served our table many times over the years and she’s wonderful. It’s always a pleasure coming here.

Our servers were Nathaly and Saul, both legendary and hold professionalism to the highest level. No need to ask for refills and they are knowledgeable about the menu and all food. The kitchen deserves its respect as the food is always great and consistently delicious.

Love this place! Food is always on point and everyone interacts with you. Not only was our server Nathaly amazing everyone came around and asked about apps, drinks, dessert and interacted with our 1 year old playing peek a boo and talking with her. Very family friendly.

I cannot express enough how amazing El Potro in Conway is. My family has become regulars. The food is delicious, the drinks to die for, and service second to none. Ask for Nathaly - she is one of our favorites and always wears the warmest smile! We also always love the drinks by Tatiana! 1000/10 and a go to to every dining out experience, no matter the occasion!

We had a wonderful experience at El Potro, and a big part of that was thanks to our server, Reina. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. Reina knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, and checked on us just the right amount. Our food and drinks came out perfectly, and her positive attitude really elevated the whole experience. Excellent service like hers is the reason we’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you, Reina!

Had such a great experience at this Mexican restaurant! The food was delicious, full of authentic flavor, and the atmosphere felt welcoming and cozy.

We chose El Potro Mexican Restaurant to celebrate my son’s 15th birthday with our whole family, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding—everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of at all times. The food was beyond delicious and truly exceeded our expectations; I ordered the birria pizza and it was simply to die for, while the queso fundido was rich, flavorful, and unforgettable. Every dish came out perfectly made, and the portions were very generous, so definitely arrive hungry. What made the night even more special was how they celebrated my son—coming out to sing Happy Birthday, gifting him a delicious complimentary dessert, and even placing a mariachi hat on him, which made him feel so celebrated and loved. This restaurant truly went above and beyond to make our family celebration memorable. I highly recommend El Potro Mexican Restaurant and we will absolutely be coming back again. 🌮🎉

We love dining here! The food is always great, hot, and fresh! The prices can’t be beat either! We come pretty often and the service is always excellent! All the wait staff are very kind and efficient, we especially love Rosi- she is fast and attentive! Highly recommend this location!!

We definitely recommend and we’ll be back!

Absolutely great second time coming, this time better than last. We had Nathaly as our waitress and I’m here to say she was exceptional. From the minute we sat down, greeted us with a warm welcome, checked us every so often to make sure we were ok. Kudos to whom ever hired her, great addition to your team.

We came on Valentine’s Day. Everyone was very friendly. Nathaly was our server and she was amazing. She gave excellent recommendations. The food was delicious. Service was fast. There was great live music. Great date night!!

I just had lunch at El Potro on Conway and everything was excellent. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the service was truly exceptional. A special shout-out to Saúl, our server. His memory is incredible — he handled a table of more than 10 people with perfect accuracy, professionalism, and a friendly attitude the entire time. He didn’t miss a single detail and made the whole experience even better. Five stars for the restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and five stars for Saúl ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a beautiful experience coming here! This is my first time coming here to eat I felt like family first thing entering at the door. Everyone did amazing job, making people feel so comfortable with so many smiles. My server Martga did an excellent job serving me with her energy and smile. I had a stressed out day, and this was a perfect place to end my night with beautiful music and energy. I am a vegetarian and the cook did such a fabulous job cooking my dinner. My dinner was hot and delicious and I received my food quick. I didn't have to wait Long at all. Thank you everyone here, for all the beautiful smiles and welcoming energy! Queen Starlight ❤️ 🌟 ✌️

Saul is amazing! My wife and I come here all the time—this restaurant is one of our favorites—and Saul is always happy to see us. He’s a fantastic waiter, takes our orders perfectly, and the food always comes out fast. Great service every single visit!

My mom and I had an amazing experience at El Potro today! We were warmly greeted upon entering and our server Rosi served us with excellence! Rosi is so kind and sweet and made sure we had everything we needed. Bringing our items with the most pleasure and kindness. The food portions are amazing for the price that you pay! The food tasted like I was eating at my grandmas house. Savory, fresh, and full of flavor!

We had an amazing experience at El Potro today thanks to Reina! She attended us from start to finish and was incredibly attentive, friendly, and genuinely hospitable. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked in on us often, and did it all with a great attitude and warm personality. Her service truly made our visit enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back—thank you, Reina!

Five stars, without hesitation. El Potro is hands-down one of my favorite restaurants — the food is consistently delicious, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is outstanding. Tatiana ( the rock star) and Saul and Nati! are truly the heart of this place. They are always kind, inviting, attentive, and make every guest feel like family. You can genuinely feel the care they put into both the service and the dining experience. I was personally present the day a negative review mentioned an issue, and I can confidently say that it did not happen the way it was described. The staff was professional and respectful at all times. Unfortunately, some people are simply unhappy and choose to project that onto others. If you want great food, excellent service, and a place where you are treated with genuine warmth, El Potro is it. Highly recommended.

We LOVE El Potro. Saul was our server this evening and we had amazing service and the food was outstanding per usual. We are regular customers and also had amazing service on many of other visits with other servers. We love that el potro is part of the Conway/belle isle community and not a visit goes by they don’t treat us like family.

7-4-2023 Another good meal. Good service. 10-3-2022 Was a very good meal and the prices are not bad at all. Staff was friendly and attentive. Dinning area was neat and very clean. This building has been a lot of restaurants over the years I hope this one sticks around.

Texas rice was great. The tacos were ok. Casual dinning but very nice atmosphere. The menu has alot of options to choose from. The people from the time we got there were very nice and took care of our needs. We look fwd to going back

Food was very good! Quesadilla and Chori Pollo in our party. The salsa could use more spice, but it wasn't bad. Our server disappeared for long periods and we had to ask for our check. We would definitely go back.

Saul is amazing! He always takes good care of us. We love love love the fajitas and of course chip’s and salsa. We keep coming back and will continue to do so!

We were warmly welcomed and seated in a timely manner. The restaurant's holiday-themed decor was a pleasant ambiance, and our seating area was clean and well-maintained. Although it was busy we received attentive service. Stephanie promptly delivered chips and salsa to our table. My husband selected the chori pollo, which came with rice and a salad topped with guacamole. I opted for the queso dip, which was served with pickled jalapenos that I wished had been chopped into smaller pieces for better integration into the dip, and the small grilled chicken quesadilla. The portion size was suitable for me, featuring a generous filling of grilled chicken and cheese. My husband appreciated the portion size and found the chorizo to be milder than expected, yet still enjoyable. However, he was disappointed with the chips, which seemed store-bought, cold, and thick. In contrast, the salsa was flavorful. Overall, I would consider returning.

Pretty good Chicken Enchilada, rice and beans 🫘 plate. I've been to 50 places in the world. This Mexican restaurant seems pretty good. Thanks

EVERYTHING IS COATED IN SOME KIND OF CHEAP milky borderline stale AMERICAN CHEESE. I got a steak quesadilla, and my girl got the shrimp Quesadilla. The amount of steak was mildly decent, my girl had 3 pieces of shrimp. The rice and the beans taste like those samples they preserving and display on the vendor carts for a year. If you’ve never had Mexican food before, and just wanna say that you’ve been to a Mexican restaurant and your pallet is secretly only American food that’s only yellow or white then this is the place for you. It’s close to the airport and that’s why they must be roping people in.
