This was our first dining experience at the establishment. It was unfortunate that the server’s ring landed in our sampler platter. The burrito was missing the lettuce, tomato, sour cream garnish. The chicken tenders from the platter had a unfamiliar taste which was not a good taste. Portion sizes were good. Prices were good as well. If I had a suggestion for the sampler platter I will put it on a bigger plate so with the beef and cheese sauce that goes on the nachos could be on most each and every chip, instead of the few it covered. This experience left a lot to be desired. I wouldn’t give up thou.

My first and last time here. The food was overpriced for the quality. The Barilla tacos were $18 and very bland with no real sides or dipping sauce. I paid to buy rice and beans on the side. The chips and queso was $7 for a tiny cup of cheese. I spent $50 bucks total which was a waste. The quesadilla barely had any cheese holding it together and that meat was bland too. I had to circle the block three times to find a parking spot and pay for parking.

My boyfriend and I were there for lunch last week, we ordered fajitas and birria tacos which were really good, good service, and nice aesthetic and set up.

Los Potrillos (little ponies) Is my favorite Mexican restaurant in the Cincinnati area. It is located on the thriving Ludlow business district in gaslight Clifton, between skyline chili and Esquire theater, right across the street from Clifton market. You can try your luck with street parking, but more reliable is the Clifton merchants lot off Howell avenue. You can cut up the stairs from the lot and end up right across from the restaurant. Los Potrillos is a warm, cozy, colorful Mexican restaurant. When you enter the turn style glass door there is a beautiful, bright colorful bar to sit at. It’s a great place to watch sporting events with a few friends or to grab a terrific Frozen margarita, my favorite is lime with rock sugar on the rim. The medium one is about the size of a small aquarium. Straight opposite the bar are two rows of nice cozy booths. One row looks straight out onto the street. Upstairs are rooms with larger tables. They have no problem seating 20 people. Those party rooms can be loud and quite raucous, but very fun. The waiters make you feel like you’re right at home. All smiles and prompt terrific service. The food is fabulous. Queso fundido, guacamole, free chips and salsa, All the standard Mexican fare but done very well. They have a very healthy soupa azteca which is essentially a chicken and rice soup. Great if you have a cold. They have lots of delicious entrees. My favorite is Los Potrillos quesadilla which is a mix of steak, chicken, and shrimp in a delicious quesadilla. You can’t go wrong with anything. Their desserts are fabulous. So next time you’re looking for a fun and lively evening out with your family or friends, and a place to get some really delicious frozen margaritas, head to Los Potrillos in gaslight Clifton.

Decided to try Los Potrillos for a pre-concert meal. Only a block away from the Ludlow Garage, I was excited to find a great selection of entrees on their online menu. The dining area is a lot more spacious than the online photos portray. Staff was very courteous and accommodating the moment we walked in the door. We started with a Strawberry Daiquiri and a Margaurita; not a fan of the tequila used as it had an odd bitter taste. The chips, salsa and pico de gallo were great. My wife ordered the Burrito Mexicano, but felt it was stuffed with too many peppers and onions. I had the Quesadiila Tropicana, substituting Al Pastor for the steak. It was great, but I was surprised there was no tortilla on top. Didn’t matter because it was tasty and full of meat. Service was way above par; we were fortunate to have Juanita taking care of us. Prices were very reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get, making this place a good value. This was our first visit, and we’ll definitely be back.

Bueno?
So, while we were seated promptly and had some really good chip and salsa our meal did take almost 45 minutes to arrive to us. Most of the meal did hit! We had 4 kids pizza, 1 chicken and steak fajita, 1 fajita salad and a mex sampler. The reason for the 3 star was due to the length of time waited and the chicken wing in the sampler not being cooked all the way. Nonetheless, I have not written them off, but I’ll try to come back on weekday and see the difference.

Came in around 5pm on a Tuesday and it was empty. Sat at the bar. Comfortable chairs. Service was prompt and friendly. Atmosphere is colorful and bright and they play traditional Mexican music. They had a special for a bottle of Pacifico for $2.50. I also got a burrito plate for $13. Chips were warm and salsa wasn’t too cold. Good experience, I’d come back.

All 3 of us are formerly from Socal or LA to be exact so Mexican food as you know is expecting some high standards. As shown on my receipt, there was dishes of enchiladas del barrio & supremas. They said the sauces weren’t spicy, it had little flavor but the description says “salsa” which we were expecting to be somewhat spicy, but I understand as the majority of Cincinnati is white & African Americans to very little of other ethnicities.
The enchiladas had a generous amount of chicken stuffed inside, but of course you get to choose the option except for the enchiladas de barrio I think which is the top left dish. Each one had ground beef, chicken & a lot of cheese. Very good portions for what you pay.
The other thing when looking for Mexican restaurants or Mexican food in general is pricing. Lots of well received & high rated places but prices are high with people paying $4 for a taco. This restaurant if I remember was about $3, which is still pricey. My favorite Mexican dish is mole de pollo. Mole was somewhat sweet although not spicy nor a lot of flavor in it. The rice was pretty well cooked, soft but somewhat of a crispy texture, again with a generous amount of chicken to go with it. The chips are brought out for free, not sure if it’s bottomless but the salsa wasn’t spicy, a small hint of sweet but again not much flavor.
The burrito grande is a wet burrito, I took it to go as I didn’t think I would finish it but turns out my dish didn’t fill me. Filled with the typical burrito stuffing that gets eaten with a fork & knife. The salsas on it was the same as the enchiladas, not much flavor to it besides some sweetness.
The place inside definitely reminds me of what a Mexican restaurant would look like, authentic with their styling & decorations. My server, Armando was always checking up on us, great service & asked if I wanted another drink of Coco Loco which I promptly declined as I was the driver. The drink didn’t taste like alcohol or anything mixed, for a minute I thought maybe it was lemonade but I wouldn’t know although I couldn’t really taste it.
I would definitely come back to this restaurant again to try the rest of the items, it’s definitely an authentic Mexican restaurant, the experience is as close as I remember it to be despite the food lacking in some flavor which drops it 1 star. It’s better than that “Nada” restaurant for sure.
