Went in for Sunday lunch and our party of 4 was seated right away. Hot chips and a spicy salsa was served and drinks were ordered and brought rather quickly along with our ordered cheese dip. We placed our lunch order and enjoyed our conversation until the meal arrived with drink refills and chips coming, the food was delicious! They did a great job getting the particulars of the orders correct (everyone had something special). We enjoyed the meal and stayed at our table for a while talking and never felt rushed. The service and the meal was amazing! Will definitely want to be back! read more

I was disappointed in my recent visit to Los Potrillos. This was one of my favorite spots to stop on road trips... but it's gone downhill and fast. For starters, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the bathroom had 1.5/2 broken toilets and the floor was flooded with mystery liquid... I could barely make it to the sink without almost slipping. It also smelt horrible and the bathroom was legitimately falling apart[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Now onto the service... it took them 30 minutes to take our order (and it wasn't that crowded). The server was not friendly either. However, since they were out of guac she did give us free queso which was very nice. The chips and salsa were excellent, as was the Mexican rice. My $15 grilled chicken quesadilla on the other hand... was sub par and small (see photos). The grilled chicken itself was somewhat stiff. Some pieces had only chicken... others only cheese. This was discomforting. Where is the fusion of flavors? Anyways, this is not the restaurant that I remember. read more

Los Potrillos - Chips and Salsa - Mexican Near Me - Front Royal, Virginia

Always a great spot for incredible Mexican food and friendly service! The chips and salsa come out fresh right away, and the tacos and sizzling fajitas are packed with authentic flavor. Top it off with a cold margarita, and you really can't beat the fun, welcoming atmosphere. read more

Food and drinks were good. Service was very friendly but really slow. Like really really slow. Just be prepared to wait. Worth the wait but if you're in a hurry best to go elsewhere. It's a new establishment so have patience. Giving five stars because food and drinks were on point. I had the smoky pear, which was good. My friend had the margarita which she said wasn't too sweet, so it was perfect. read more

Great place to get a bite to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Really friendly and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Chips and salsa upon arrival which is always good. Salsa was much better than I expected. Really diverse menu so it took a moment to decide. Tried one of the combos. Overall the food is good just not as spicy as I'm expecting being from Texas. The red enchilada sauce was a bit odd tasting of cinnamon to me. Not over powering but more like a Christmasy flavor. Tacos were nice, surprising to see the use of white Mexican style cheese. Again I would have liked a bit more spicy goodness. Either way I did enjoy my meal. The service was excellent as well. read more

I was skeptical going in since they had just opened here in Luray, but I went in for lunch and it was amazing!! I ordered the grilled chicken quesadilla and I would highly recommend it. The guacamole was very fresh and the best I've ever had, the wait staff was super friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the decor is beautiful!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely will be eating there again!! read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant. All the dishes are tasty. Service is always great as well

Huge Margaritas! We had the Carne Asada Steak and Chicken tacos. They were excellent. The hot sauces they gave us with them were really good too. Chips and salsa app was above average. Wait staff was friendly and attentive. read more

Had an awesome meal with my wife two weeks ago here while on vacation to Shenandoah. The food was outstanding, one of the better burritos I have ever had. Service was very polite albeit didn't check in too often, and the ambiance was perfect for the type of Mexican cuisine setting. read more

Absolute gem this place. They even offer flour or corn tortillas. Service was on point and always asked if I needed anything. During lunch, my food was prepared quickly and with care. I had tacos al pastor which came with two sauces--delicious. I took a giant chicken quesadilla home as well as a couple burritos. I would choose the quesadilla and tacos over the burritos in the future, but nothing was bad. Also, the homemade chips and salsa are a nice touch. I live 2.5 hours away in Lancaster, PA, but will absolutely be back here when I travel again for work. Will have to try some of their other dishes as I'm sure they will not disappoint. read more

We spent the night in Front Royal in preparation for a ride down the Skyline Drive. We had been on motorcycles for 11 hours so we were pretty hungry. Let me preface this by saying we are foodies. I mean, like it's in our genes. We also cook and experiment in the kitchen a lot. Most of the time dining out is a let down. This place had the best burrito (my huband got the burrito Portrillos) and absolutely the best choripollo I have ever eaten. They include grilled pineapple with the choripollo, which was a first for me, and I will never have it any other way. The chicken was perfect, the chorizo was incredibly savory with just a touch of sweet heat and the cheese was not overpowering. My husband makes (and I can) his own refried beans from scratch but the ones here make us want to go home and figure out what they did to make them magic. The food was sublime, our waitress was attentive and funny and took the time to talk food with us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is relaxing but festive and the restaurant immaculate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We live on the southern end of NC but would make a motorcycle trip up just to eat here. It would be worth it. read more

Great food comes out hot. Always ask for Nancy you will love her. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have bar and many TVs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

I dont even think they tried to roll it tbh. Pretty annoying with how often we order. Almost 20$ for some food with a tortilla on top essentially read more

Los Potrillos - Burrito. 2/5 for effort. - Mexican Near Me - Front Royal, Virginia

This is in Riverton commons. Another in Strasburg. Great food, service and ease of parking. Also can charge your Tesla. Highly recommend

A very typical Tex-Mex restaurant with lots of menu options and huge portions. You get chips and drinks upon sitting down and the servers are quick with the orders. My boyfriend and I ordered the Mexican burrito which is actually two burritos (one with carnitas and one with carne asada) while I ordered the chicken and spinach enchiladas covered in their queso sauce. Everything tasted fine and I was super happy when they brought me some of their hotter hot sauce. P.S. The queso wasn't half bad! read more

I love this restaurant. They have a very large menu to choose from of just about any Mexican food you could want, and they give very large portion sizes. They also serve chips and salsa with every meal (including take out). I always order it as takeout, and they put the hot food in one container, and the cold toppings in another, so that the cold toppings like lettuce, tomato etc. don't wilt from being on top of the hot food too long on the way home. The hot food stays hot and the veggies stay cool and crisp which is what I really like. They use foil containers with paper lids rather than plastic, so they are environmentally conscious and you can recycle it. The price is also very reasonable too, especially considering the large portion size. A wonderful healthy meal for only a couple dollars more than a Big Mac combo! I loved the Enchiladas Verdes, which is 3 large enchiladas filled with shredded beef, tomatillo sauce, sliced avocados, and other veggie toppings. I loved the additional chopped tomatoes and what I think was pickled cabbage. Fantastic. Highly recommend! read more

This is one of our family favorites! We've never been disappointed! Well managed and hard working staff...give them a try read more

I got the Chili Rellenos combination with a chicken enchilada and a beef burrito and there was plenty to take home...pared with Coronalita margarita it was very good... sorry no room for dessert! read more

I ordered a simple appetizer of chips, salsa, and guacamole to go for the price of $8.00 and this is considered an app. This isn't even a side. So very disgusted in rip off. read more

Los Potrillos - Picture to show how small. - Mexican Near Me - Front Royal, Virginia

Nice place. Warm atmosphere. Nice staff. A little loud. Food was delicious and in large portions. Chorizo queso was flavorful and the chorizo had the perfect amount of spice. Jalisco Burrito was huge, had plenty of leftovers. Burrito advertised as having steak, chicken, chorizo and shrimp. Two little yet important details kept from giving 5 stars. The steak was very tough in the burrito and I was inning alone so the servers were more attentive to the larger parties. Overall an excellent dining experience. Will return next time I'm in town. read more

Great atmosphere! Delicious food! Excellent service! We ordered the Enchiladas Suprema, a sampling of all four types of enchiladas they feature. They were all delicious-- the chicken and cheese were my favorites. We also got the table-side fresh guacamole -- it was one of the most delicious guacamoles I've ever had!! My friend got the street tacos, they are overflowing with perfectly cooked meat. The carnitas were her fave. This is definitely going on our list for when I come to visit! read more

We have eaten here at least a couple dozen times. Today I ordered enchiladas Las Paz. They uses imitation crab. Seriously? At $16.99 it's one of the most expensive items on the menu. At that price I expect real crab. read more

We ate our lunch inside the restaurant. The salsa had just enough kick for me. The corn chips are good. I had the lunch chicken fajitas ($9.00) with the normal sides. There was a generous portion of onions and peppers in with the tasty chicken. The side dish had a large amount of sour cream and guacamole. I had a very small amount of tomatoes in with my iceberg lettuce. The rice and refried beans were very good. I had two flour tortillas. I think there should have been more, but since my wife was served five corn tortillas with her order, I used a couple of hers. My wife had the lunch carnitas ($9.50) which she enjoyed because of the flavorful pork. Our waitress did an excellent job of keeping our glasses filled and checking with us. After we placed our order, it was soon served to us. This was a good experience for us. read more

We really like the food here. The service is usually very quick and friendly. I've tried several options on the menu and haven't found anything I don't like. They have a good kids menu as well that includes items such as cheeseburger, so our youngest has something he enjoys as well. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere and service was very good[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] however I have to give 3 stars for the food. Not a real Mexican flavor or style. Ordered a carne asada and was very disappointed to find the order did not include rice, had to pay separate for it. The steak was very small and chewy not tender and a little salty and greasy not juicy. The salad had some sort of pink onion that did not taste good at all either. Ordered a side of guacamole and it was watery, that is not how guacamole is supposed to taste like. My husband ordered a steak quesadilla and it was plain if you wanted anything else with it was a separate order. The chips and salsa were good. read more

Excellent food. Fast service. Huge portions. No reservation needed. A definite must if you want authentic Mexican food.

This was a really really good restaurant.., the server was very nice and didn't rush us to leave, the interior was clean and well appointed, and the food delish. The four of us all had different things and most were excellent.., the chicken quesadillas were not special, just okay. I loved the red sauce they use, and the green verde .. we will be using this restaurant while in Front Royal from now on!!!!! Their sauces make the food amazing...try the Chili Relleno..., soooo good!!! read more

Delicious quick Mexican. Prices were a little high but they had all the options and everything tasted great! Conveniently located by other things and close to the hotel we were in. read more

Food is always good. Service never disappoints. Our favorite local Mexican restaurant

Got the "Potrillo" dish and asked for the steak well done. I know that is sacrilege but I only order medium rare steaks at restaraunts that specialize in steaks. When I bit into the steak it was medium rare. The rice and beans that accompanied were lacking in flavor. Definitely not a good place for vegetarians unless I missed the proper vegetarian dish. There is a chipotle nearby for those craving veggie dishes. read more

I really like this eating establishment. You can always get a great meal. Pork carnitas are wonderfully seasoned and tender. Nachos come "loaded." The chicken and spinach enchiladas another favorite. Their drinks (margaritas) trend towards the weaker side, but other than that you can't go wrong. read more

Used to love this place but something has definitely changed. The past two times we've ordered takeout from here it's been awful. Tonight's dinner will be the last takeout we will get from here. My chimichangas tastes like they were fried in dirty oil that wasn't hot enough to do the job. What little I was able to eat has me very sick on my stomach. read more

Excellent Enchiladas La Paz! The white rice was awesome, too! I will be returning to try some other things on the menu.

Passing through Front Royal and stopped in. SO pleasantly surprised!! Our server was Rosie and she was extremely attentive and helpful. They had a $2.99 margarita special and you could actually taste the tequila, delicious. Ceviche was excellent. Burritos wet stuffed full of meat and decadent! Highly recommend. So unexpected for a strip mall establishment! read more

Bad, bad business practice. Food is meh. Looks like the waitress is so unhappy with her job here. Not. Coming. Back. Ever. Again. Here's my story: We ate here and paid with a prepaid VISA gift card. Our total bill was $27.31 which I paid with our VISA gift card worth $25 plus some $6 cash for the difference and tip. The waitress came back and said they cannot charge the whole amount of the card balance so my husband said to charge as much as they can. She came back and said they charged $20 from the card, and gave me a receipt for $20. So with the cash i earlier gave, we were told we still owe them $1.31. I gave another $20 cash to pay for this difference and left more cash for the tip. When I later checked the balance in our visa gift card, it showed a negative balance of $2.31. They cheated us and lied when they said they only charged $20 from our card. read more
