"Our usual favorite Mexican restaurant is Agave Azul. However, recent changes such as charging for chips and salsa, raising prices, and the condensing of their menu with several favorite items of mine no longer available, has made me interested in trying more places. I had been to El Potro once before a few years ago, and since it is across the street from Agave Azul, I thought we could head that way and make our final decision when we neared closer. With agreement from my friends, we decided to give El Potro a chance and have dinner there tonight. The ambiance is very casual and comfortable. We felt at home here. The service was also great. Our server (I believe her name is Stephanie) was very kind and attentive. I want to apologize here because while I tipped above 20%, my bill was low so my tip was not very impressive. On my drive home, I reflected on it and felt guilty. Next time, I will do better, so I apologize. Our server was wonderful. We were served complimentary chips and salsa and as our bowl neared empty, our server asked if we wanted more which we said yes to! The salsa has a great amount of spice to it and the chips tasted fresh. Our waters were topped off timely as well. The queso dip appetizer we ordered was also yummy. So many menu options which was exciting! For my entree, I got a cheese quesadilla with beans and rice. While the beans and rice were just okay, my quesadilla really hit the spot! It's a simple tasty classic. My friends enjoyed their meals as well (spicy watermelon rita, supreme burrito with shrimp, half order chimichanga). At the end of our meal, our server asked if we wanted dessert. We were stuffed but want to try something next time! I also want to get a margarita next time too because I tasted my friend's and it was delicious! Another bonus: the prices here are absolutely refreshing! Times are tough right now, so it was nice to be able to go out to eat and relax without breaking the bank. Thank you very much for serving us. You deserve a much higher rating than your current 3.9. Hopefully my review will help. We look forward to returning!"
