Al Pastor taco
Helen O.

It was my first time to try this place. Since it's my first time I just order a Al pastor taco. There were about 4 to 5 jalapeño which I took them off the taco. Then as I bite into it, it was so spicy and it tasted salty, and no pineapple. I was glad I only got one taco.

When in California it's hard to get bad Mexican food; there's good, better, and great. I'd put this place in the great category. Here's why: freshly handmade tortillas, home style food presented beautifully, and the family is just nice. I had the chilaquilles with steak -- a must-try. My friend had the menudo and said it was spot on.

Found this place, although it looks interesting from outside , it's very clean and cozy once you walk in. We were a party of 12, they got us table right away. Nice servers, if you're expecting like fast food style ( taqueria ) , it's not, we did wait a little bit for our food, but you can tell,they made it from fresh, the ingredients are fresh & tasty.

Come here every so often and each time I am never disappointed. The place is small and the parking lot is also small with a bunch of potholes. However the food is worth it. So full of flavor. They have lots of food options. They are usually pretty quick with making the orders or packing to go. I love the option of calling over the phone or ordering online instead of making orders to go in person. Prices are decent. Portion sizes are good. I will definitely continue to come here

A local business and a family favorite, you can never beat the feeling of community like Los Potros. I went with my partner's family on a Saturday night, and there was just enough space to seat everybody. I was told that this was their all-time favorite restaurant, compared to the other two Mexican taquerias (Jorge's and La Mexicana), so I had to experience it for myself. We began our meal with a refreshing glass of horchata. The quality was impeccable, capturing the perfect balance of sweetness and spice -- it wasn't too sweet neither was it too watered down. It tasted really creamy and rich, and the cinnamon-infused flavor were a testament to the care and traditional methods likely were used. It was the ideal accompaniment, setting a delightful foundation for the rest of our culinary journey. The camarón a la plancha, which was my main dish, was presented with artistic flair, exemplifying sufficient plating that was both appetizing and aesthetically pleasing. Each seafood element was grilled to perfection, offering a delightful medley of textures and flavors that danced on our palates. The slight char from the grill enhanced the natural sweetness of the shrimp honestly, making each bite a flavor-packed experience. A key highlight of our meal was the tortillas--both corn and flour. The tenderness of the tortillas was noteworthy, likely crafted in-house with attention to authenticity and freshness. The corn tortillas were soft and subtly sweet, complementing the savory dishes perfectly, while the flour tortillas were equally tender, providing a light and pliable option to accompany the meal. The cleanliness of the restaurant was impeccable, reflecting a high standard of care and consideration for their patrons. Each table was spotless, and the ambience was calming and inviting. This attention to detail extended beyond the immediate dining area, imbuing a sense of safety and comfort that underpinned our entire experience. Overall, not only did we enjoy a delicious meal, but the environment and service collectively ensured that our visit was memorable. It was evident that this establishment takes pride in offering not just good food, but a comprehensive dining experience for everyone

STREET TACOS.  CARNITAS and PASTOR. $3.50 each
Matt W.

Simply the best carnitas and pastor I've had full stop. Driving to Yosemite from the Bay Area, I wanted to include a few stops along the way. Tracy was a logical location to search out some local traditional Mexican food. I love Yelp! The Guzman family at Los Potros have created a restaurant that is the perfect palate for their passion and creativity. Their Carnitas and Pastor are the best I've had not only in Tracy but in Northern California and that includes the Mission in San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley. My street tacos with traditional Carnitas and Pastor were so simple, but full of flavor and texture. I was so impressed with the street tacos that returned from my trip to Yosemite 4 days later to try their Enchiladas de Mole de Pollo. The lovely lady that served me was incredibly proud when she placed the plate in front of me that included 2 mole enchiladas with chicken, rice and beans - all for $14.00! The mole - an old family recipe was complex, chocolaty with deep flavors of roasted peppers and almonds. I savored every bite. Matt says if you find yourself near Tracy, or maybe on a road trip to Yosemite, think about a stop at Los Potros for a culinary experience you will never forget.

Super Burrito Famoso (wet)
Randy V.

Food good Service good Ambiance ok All of our plates good, especially the chili relleno burrito. I would comeback again

Asada Breakfast Burrito
Bels M.

I like getting food here but ordered an asada breakfast burrito today and wasn't real happy with it. It was all meat and a little bit of cheese and possibly one egg. It was a real meat bomb. It's really hard, it seems, for restaurants to get the portions right in a breakfast burrito. The ratio between eggs cheese meat and potatoes needs to be correct. This one was not even close.

Guacamole and Salsa
Chris P.

We've always enjoyed this restaurant. All the food we've tried has been great. This time we had street tacos, kid's enchilada plate and a bean/cheese/rice burrito. All the meats were awesome. Our favorite was the al pastor, although it was slightly greasy. The chicken was shredded and flavorful. The carne asada is also good. My daughter enjoyed her enchilada plate and my burrito was great. All the servers were friendly and fast. The dining area is small but has several tables that are clean and cozy. They also have good drink selection. Overall it's a great local place, and we will definitely be back.

Enchilada and carnitas quesadilla, rice and beans
Mary H.

Los Potros is one of the best local Mom/Pop Mexican restaurants. I love that they have shredded beef as it seems harder to find in Nor Cal. It was a staple in San Diego restaurants. The chicken quesadilla was great and the rice is some of the best in the area. Bathroom was very clean, which is so important! Huge variety on the menu and children's menu also. We will be back!

Queria portar mas appetito para desgustar unos cuantos mas.

Great service. Small dine in area, but food is consistent and good pricing. Parking is better now that they opened up the parking lot.
