El Potro - Grand Rapids

10 months ago I would have recommended this restaurant with five stars for both food and service. The last few times we have eaten here have progressively fallen dangerously shy of a single star. Tonight's latest and most recent debacle: Chicken that had soured, a waitress that couldn't be bothered and a miserable night ahead for me at home The most disappointing part was that our server didn't seem to really care.

Wow. Just wow. This meal was absolutely delicious, and the lunch specials are unbeatable! Got the chimichanga plate and the #10 lunch combo and including tip it was $25 (we got waters to drink). It was our first time visiting and we will be back!! Often!

Great fajitas, but they charge you for more than one tortilla at $2 a pop unbelievable! Extra cilantro? $2. Extra onion? $2. Salsa was very good, tortilla chips just mediocre, Margaritas were good. Limited choices for Mexican in the area so I suppose it will have to do.

Great Mexican Food in Northern Minnesota! Was surprised how much I loved this little locally owned restaurant. Great food, giant margaritas, chips and salsa. This place is a hidden gem. I've been several times over the years. Would recommend any of their burritos, huge and delicious. A few nice hot sauce options available. They have vegetarian options. Highly recommend.

Decent food, but know that the wait is very long. The parking lot is hard to navigate (don't even think about stopping here with any sort of bus, trailer, camper, or RV). The staff are always super friendly! Questionable fake tree inside ????
