El Potro Mexican - Brainerd

No frills dining room. Many times that's where you find the best Mexican food. Friendly service from the instant we entered the front door. Good food served quick hot. Extensive menu.

Very good Mexican food. Fast service and fair prices

Ordered the chili relleno, very small, not breaded, still had the hot seeds inside. The sauce wasn't good but the ground beef enchilada and the rice and beans were good. Small portions on a $14.99 meal. My third time eating there, can't say I'll be back. The waiter was very nice, doesn't speak much English. So I wrote my thoughts on the back of the bill.

Took my family out for lunch. I had the beef birria. The flavor was wonderful and not too salty. Good spice level. The complementary salsa that they serve is mild, but they can bring out spicy salsa if you ask for it.

Upon waking in the outside has a slight southwesty feel... Inside however was dated. Plain, boring...... The service was Good to great. We were Met with excitement, instant seating and drink orders that came within seconds.... The food: Flaming fajitas.... Very good chunky chicken and decent size shrimp that wasn't drowned in seasonings..... Not bland but could taste the chicken/beef/shrimp/veggies separately.. The rice so far was pretty decent and beat Pedro's rice frijoles..... Could have stood to get more char on the ingredients a hint more of Adobo or something but,,, it reminded me of being more authentic so,,,,, that was a plus !!!! 3.5 stars because of setting and I wasn't served with tortillas booth space is for skinny people ...!!!... ha
