Los Potrillos Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Washington

I was served Pleasant, accommodating, efficient, small army of servers spearheaded by a young man named Nic. Worth his weight in gold!

The kitchen seemed to drag a bit, considering the lower occupancy of the restaurant at the time. When the food did arive, it arrived absolutely piping hot and bubbling. Just the way I like it. In my opinion, well worth the wait. The enchilada sauce had a good depth a flavor. Made with several different dried chili powders and what seemed like a hint of cinnamon. A bit on the spicy side, if that's your thing The Beer was served very cold but not icy cold. The very noisy bar Loudly Resounds throughout the whole restaurant. Almost deafening. Definitely this place's bread and butter

I had a descent and very cheesy chile relleno. It was a scrambled egg, omelette wrapped, Anaheim Chili pepper instead of the traditional whipped egg white, fried version. It was not my favorite style but, tasty none the less. Thh smooth, moist, masa on the tamale surrounded an overly generous portion of mildly spiced chicken. One of better things on the plate.

The cheese enchilada had, dare I say it, almost too much cheese. Very tasty and the cinnamon tinted enchilada sauce complemented it well. Not what I'm used to, but perfectly palatable.

The ricewas not over there greasy and was lightly spiced bringing out the subtle flavors. The beans were well-cooked, creamy and not overly salty. Well done on both

For old school Mexican Cuisine you really can't beat this place. I think I'll be returning when I'm in the mood for this...

Los Potrillos remains one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, and even years later, it continues to deserve a solid five-star review. The service here is truly above and beyond — not only friendly, but genuinely welcoming and attentive. Every time I’ve visited, the staff has been polite, cheerful, and dedicated to making sure guests feel taken care of. Their commitment to service is MORE than outstanding — they treat you like family the moment you walk in the door. The food is always delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. From the warm chips and tasty salsa to beautifully prepared entrées, everything tastes authentic and made with care. Their dishes come out hot, well-seasoned, and generously portioned. Whether you’re craving enchiladas, tacos, fajitas, or a refreshing margarita, you can count on great quality and consistency every time. The happy hour here is also a treat — excellent prices and fantastic options that make it easy to stop in and relax. The restaurant has a warm, clean, and inviting atmosphere that makes dining here enjoyable whether you’re with friends, family, or enjoying a solo meal. I always leave satisfied and looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommended if you want great food, excellent service, and a welcoming local spot that never...

Our server Gage was very kind. The Shrimp La Crema was AMAZING. The 3 bar drinks my friends had were not good, almost (😁) not going to drink them. I think maybe the ice is bad ? -two had a tinge of odd 'hose water' flavor but even the hot 3rd one has same flavor (everyone tasted all 3). I think the management left the staff overworked. I felt bad, 2 servers is all I seen the 1.5 hours we were there on Valentine's Day 😳 peek hours 6pm, but maybe others called out. Management should come up with a way for clients to know their servers name without making them ask. Maybe train them to introduced themselves, if they refuse, let them wear a name tag. Or give them drink coasters with their name on it and leave one on the table. It can be uplifting for them to have their customers SEE them. 'Hey you' can be degrading to both your help and your clients. Lastly the bill holders were the worst I have seen; severely dilapidated, grimy and gross to touch. I cannot believe you've let this small thing go this long without making it right. It makes me and others wonder what your kitchen looks like. The servers were superstars. The kitchen staff were superheros. The flavor coming out of the kitchen is the reason I will be back in the last week of April. Looking...
