Los Potros Mexican - Collegedale

Loose potros atmosphere is beautiful, the staff are always friendly, the portions are great, and the wall paintings on the walls are great to see while they are waiting for it.(which usually does not take long to get) they have a lot of delicious options to choose in their menu. I love the fajita gemüsequesadilla!

If you don't like spicy Mexican food, this restaurant is for you. From the salsa to steak tacos, every dish was lacking in flavor and any type of heat. Although the guacamole was pretty good with chunky avacado, onion, tomato, and cilantro. It was served with a half fresh lime, which when the juice was squeezed into it, the flavor was enhanced. It is the most Americanized Mexican cuisine I've had. The decor is beautiful with hand painted murals, and the service is fast and efficient. The menu is expansive so perhaps there are more authentic dishes to choose.

Ok, I have reviewed Los Potros before and really liked the food. But the last few times I have gotten food from the Ooltewah location, I have been disappointed. The salsa just tastes like tomato puree and the house guacamole, which usually has beautiful chunks of avocado, looked more like mush and was runny. The dinner burrito was all rice and lettuce. It had very little refried beans to the point that I was unrolling the burrito trying to find the beans. It saddens me because, up until now, this has been my favorite Mexican restaurant. I am not sure what is going on, but I hope they can get back to the quality they have had in the past.

We have been coming here for years and have loved it but the last 3 times there were horrible. The food was cold and unflavorful, the service was non existent and the wait time was ridiculous… I keep coming back hoping that it was just a one time occurrence but these issues have been consistent. Los Potros is about to lose a long time customer.

Hands down, one of my favorite restaurants to eat at! Food is delicious, and service is good.
