It's a nice place to slide in an try, never seen it overly crowded maybe covid related but I enjoyed the food service was fast, the waitress an Mgr worked together an knocked the tables out. Stopped by asked if we enjoyed our food an if there was anything he could offer service wise fast an nice

Chicken Rice Soup
Zacharias R.

I ordered the steak tacos they are ok I'll give it a above average you have to use the actual taco salsa to really get the full flavor and effect. But man that chicken rice soup... 5 out of 5 I mean it's visually beautiful, and makes your mouth explode. You can taste the Authenticity of this dish this is real as it gets. This soup puts you in Mexico having a traditional dish with your family with one bite!

Chicken Fried Chimichanga

Food was hot, fresh and came out quickly. Price was just right. I'm not often in the Plainfield area but if I'm in the area and craving authentic Mexican food I would definitely stop by. I would definitely recommend.

Burrito Loco
Sanithia C.

Food & service were excellent! It is called El Paraiso now. You get more than enough food for your lunch serving & the prices are reasonable. I will definitely be back when I'm in the Plainfield area.

It's a very beautiful set up, with art and different decorations, our server grace was awesome! Very on top of a large group order. Our food was great! Chips and tacos were fresh and tasty, and I enjoyed my pollo tacos with green sauce! Can't wait to go back!

Outstanding Mexican food. Truly, some of the best Mexican food I've eaten in Indiana so far. And…read moreTlahcos is located in Plainfield, of all places. What a pleasant surprise! I got the quesa birria tacos, which is shredded beef and melted cheese in a double corn tortilla. They come three to an order, with a cup of red consomme to dip them into, and a couple of lime wedges to squeeze over everything. They do not come with any sides, so I ordered the refried pinto beans and carrot rice, because I really wanted some rice and beans. Beans and rice are my litmus test of any Mexican restaurant, and I'm happy to say that the rice and beans at Tlahcos passed the test with flying colors, and they are sublime. I don't practice Santeria, but perhaps the people at Tlahcos do, because their food is bewitching. The carne asada was also ordered, and it came with grilled nopales (cactus), cebollita canbray (little onions), grilled panela cheese, plus guacamole, salsa, rice and black beans. It was a 98%, and what would have raised it to a 100% was if it came with tortillas. But really, it was a great dish! If you're a person who is used to eating carne asada on a regular basis, you will be satisfied with this one. Chips and salsa are complimentary, which shows that Tlahcos knows its Plainfield-area visitors. My children, who eat like birds, filled themselves up on chips and salsa and declined a full meal, but Tlahcos does have a kids menu. On the kids menu, you'll find arroz con pollo, mini cheese quesadillas, a taco, mac & cheese, chicken nuggets and a mini pizza. Kid meals come with your choice of side, which are fries, rice & beans or a cup of fruit. They have a full cocktail list, as well as beer, wine and hot beverages (coffee and tea). I got a Paloma, which was a little light on the booze, but tasty nevertheless. The rim of the glass was beautifully decorated with Tajin, which added a nice, spicy kick. It was one of those drinks that makes you want to lick the glass.

The proteins were tender and flavorful!! I i could eat 3-4 tacos in a sitting but didnt want to overdo it. If you're into spice, I always recommend adding the orange sauce to your tacos! Thank me later! Customer Service: Our waitress was very attentive. Unfortunately, I didn't get her name to be recognized but I have always been pleasant with service here! The staff is polite, attentive, and whether busy or not, the food comes fast, hot, and fresh! Ambiance: My boss and I went after work (5pm) and it wasn't busy at all in the evening! This was abnormal to me but I was happy to get seated quickly. They seem to have added more tvs since my last visit, but it is a welcoming space. Has an ice cream area and they also serve alcohol! I would highly recommend giving this place a chance!

We stopped in for Sunday lunch and to watch the afternoon football game. Inside, the dining room is a mix of booths and tables. There is a full bar on one side. We were told to sit anywhere. Emerson, our server, was friendly and attentive. Beverages, complementary chips and salsa came out quickly. Food came out quickly, as well. The salsa is really good with lots of sweet tomato chunks and spices. I had the Taco Salad with shredded chicken. The salad came in a fried tortilla bowl. The generous portion of chicken was moist and flavorful. The guac topping was delicious. My husband had the lunch special Chimichanga with ground beef. His plate was huge and colorful with pico, rice, beans and a cheesy covered chimichanga. The food is a step above your average Mexican restaurant. They offer daily drink specials (beer and margarita). I was tempted, but it was just too early in the day. They also have a kid's menu. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall lot and the restaurant is fully accessible. I recommend and will return.

Almost resembling a chain restaurant( which it very well might be--no idea if it is). We were promptly greeted and seated. A friendly server took our drink orders. I had the happy hour special margarita and hubby had a Modelo. We even put in our second drink order immediately since happy hour ended in a few minutes. The drink I received was salty and not sweet at all--however, the second one proved corrected and refreshing. We gave our food orders which consisted of the ceviche and the molcajete. The food came very quickly! Which made us very happy as we were starving! If you have never tried a molcajete--it feeds two easily. It has beef steak, chicken, shrimp and nopales. And the broth in the bottom of the bowl? Ask for more tortillas--because it's delicious! My goodness-don't leave it! We definitely couldn't eat it all and had to take the remainder home. As I write this--my stomach is growling. I can't wait to return!

They no longer serve coffee or just were willing to serve it because wasn't ready so that was already disappointing, everything kinda took a long time to get. We asked for a receipt because they use the little computers and overall just that took 10 minutes at least which is in a way a little outrageous. The place itself is always pretty and clean but the food quality for the pricing has absolutely gone down.

This was my first visit to El Potro Mexican Restaurant on Perry Road in Plainfield. Seven of us met…read morefor dinner tonight, and I enjoyed the company very much plus the X-large, comfortable, and spacious booth we were seated in. The restaurant filled up quickly, and it is family-friendly. They have a 4-top bar with high wooden stools and 6 tables in the bar area. It is partially enclosed, so you have some privacy. The menu has all the traditional appetizers, entrees, and desserts. You will find a variety of nachos, quesadillas, burritos, enchiladas, fajitas, and chimichangas. I had the Carnitas El Potro with chunks of tender pork tenderloin with onions and jalapeno peppers topped with shredded cheese and served with a side of beans and rice. I wasn't impressed with the pork chunks as they were fatty, but the beans and rice were flavorful. Desserts are available with Chimi Cheesecake, Flan, Sopapilla, and Ice Cream. I had the Flan and thought it was too dense. The Flan sauce was flavorful, but I did not enjoy the texture of this Flan, and it is my favorite Mexican dessert. I will not order this dessert here again. I'm still happy I tried El Potro's tonight and had the opportunity to visit with old and new friends. My entree, I'd say, is just okay, but what I had wasn't exceptional only due to the fatty meat. Some enjoy the fatty meat while others, like myself, do not. My sister loves fatty meat, so this is what she expects. Me, not so much. Our server, Laura, was excellent, and she didn't miss a step. Extra napkins, refills on drinks, additional chips, or salsa were refilled quickly, and used dishes were removed timely. Dinners arrived quickly and served together. My experience with El Potro was a pleasant atmosphere with average food and good service.

Amazing food!! All the workers are nice and the service was excellent!! Will definitely be coming…read moreback :)

I remarked to my wife that it's exactly what I want from a midwestern Mexican restaurant. I will definitely be back
