Amazing food and amazing people who want to serve!! If you are coming to have a conversation meeting, I would probably not recommend because it is very loud in there, but other than that it is amazing!! (I also HIGHLY recommend they're queso) read more

Very good atmosphere and excellent food! Staff was great and the food came out pretty quick! A little out of the way but well worth the drive. read more

The best fried shrimp! We like to pick up and take out when we're nearby. I've not been to hear music but, looks like it'd be a fun time. Very large inside restaurant with good service. read more

The service was excellent! Kayla did a great job! Wish more servers were that good and attentive I had the blackened sampler. The salmon was a little dry but shrimp and catfish and veggies were delicious. Hubs had the fried catfish. I was very good as were the beans. Didn't care for the creamy, sweet potato salad. Like ours with mustard and dill pickles. I was very surprised at how good the prices were! This was our first time to visit but we will be back! read more

Wonderful experience! Great food. The king crab was to die for!! Max and cheese balls were on point. It's a great atmosphere and fun for friends and family. The specials couldn't be beat. read more

We had the shrimp boil. It was great. The atmosphere is very relaxed and fun. I will definitely go again.

Have been to Abilene quite a few times but dining choices are limited. Had all day to pick last nights dining spot, had a inkling for oysters of the half shell and Potosi had them on the menu. We arrived at 6:30pm, was told that there were no table available only bar top so we bellied up to the bar! The female bartender was wearing lots of hats and aprons! We ordered fresh and grilled oysters to start with! Both were excellent. The Blackened Salmon was okay, would of be better if it hadn't been so thin, Beans and French Fries were very good. I had the chicken fried steak with baked potato and grilled vegetables. Hats off to the grill master on the Vegetables! Poor little potato was loaded but DRY, my fault though because I didn't rectify the situation. The Chicken Fried steak was nice and hearty next time I will ask for more gravy. Can't wait to return for some more oysters!!!!! read more

Seriously great. We loved it! Good food and great atmosphere! Almost doesn't feel like you're in Abilene more so a Fort Worth vibe to it. Can't wait to experience it during a live event. read more

Potosi Live - Battle of the Bands - Seafood Near Me - Abilene, Texas

This place is a nice music venue. Glad that the area has a nice large music venue that should be able to draw some larger performances from time to time. The bar has decent beers on tap. The food however is just meh. Last time I got food there the "shrimp cocktail" was basically cold small salad shrimp in a glass of cocktail sauce with some saltine crackers. The "lobster Mac n cheese" that costs $6 is basically Kraft macaroni and cheese out of a box and a lump of some generic lobster meat. Not really mixed in there, it's one lump with Kraft Mac n cheese. Haven't tried too much else of the food so far. Would recommend for music shows. Wouldn't be your first choice for dinner though. There's plenty of parking space out back, maybe they should invite food trucks to use the space. read more

Went to a private party. The atmosphere was great. The food was very good and a great selection of drinks. Service was very kind and helpful. Definitely recommend and will be back. read more

Potosi Live - Mahi with double grilled veggies - Seafood Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Drum beat of music drowned out the music. Maybe loud drum beat makes people eat and drink more? Mahi-mahi was VERY tough. Never had mahi-mahi that tough before. Fried shrimp was good but not as good as Sam's Seafood but they were closed last time I went by. Everything was WAY TOO salty!! read more

Love the way it looked and the way it was set up walking in! The vibe was was so much fun and the live music was bad ass. All the food looked amazing. A great spot for a "Saturday night for the boy", take your significant other to or bring the whole family and have a great time. The service was great had positive energy and made u feel welcomed even walking in u r greeted with see the kitchen cooking all the food and they even welcomed us. little slow on getting refills but it was a pretty busy Friday night so not upset about it. Definitely will be returning next time We come into town. read more

Good food, great service, fun environment. Will definitely return when we are in the area.

To start it off we made a reservation for our family of 5 at 3pm on a Sunday, the greeter sat us at a 4 person table and didn't offer an additional chair so we moved ourselves to a bigger table. For the first 40 mins we were the only people in the whole entire place. The waitress came and only brought 4 things of silverware even though there was 5 of us. She asked our children what they wanted to drink, they asked her what they offered and there was no response she just stared at them waiting for a response. We weren't given any menus when we arrived, we had to ask the waitress for them. My husband sat with an empty beer for almost 10 mins before she came to ask if he'd like another one. The waitress was more worried about playing/texting on her phone then taking care of us. We ordered our lunches and 3 of the 5 orders were wrong. I ordered a blue cheese burger and they brought out a regular cheeseburger. My husband ordered a chicken fried steak and the salt flavor was SO OVERPOWERING , that he couldn't finish it. THIS MAN CAN EAT, never picky and it made his stomach churn. Maybe if she focused more on taking care of her customers then her phone she wouldn't of gotten the order wrong. The food is ok, definitely have had better at other places. More training and less phone play could make this a 5 establishment. The customer should be more important than whatever you got going on with your cell phone! read more

Potosi Live - The empty seats all around us, yet the service left more to be desired - Seafood Near Me - Abilene, Texas

Potosi Live was a SOLID 5 star experience. I'll explain later. They took the 4 of us to a table for 10. What? The second table was dirty. Third table we kept. Colby was our waiter. He was fantastic. Good job young man! Music started 5 minutes later. LOUD! We were the table in the far back of the room. We could barely hear each other talk. When the food came out, we were all impressed. Everything was delicious! I love a shrimp boil and they did a great job at a great price. I will definitely get it again. There was plenty of staff to keep everyone happy. We certainly enjoyed the live music, and will go back again for the dueling piano night. Now, why 4 stars? The music was just too loud. So loud that you could recognize the song, but not understand the lyrics. Just talking across the table was a pain. This is probably just fine later in the night, but not early evening. We had a great time and great food. We will definitely go back, but I'll check the calendar for nights with no live music. See ya! read more

BAR REVIEW MAY 22, 2021 Sat at the bar for 20 minutes with one female bartender passing me by 4 times without even an attempt to take my order. When I called out for her attention, she chastised me for interrupting. After another 5 minutes she took my order. I asked her to start a tab and she said we can't do that tnite. Fast forward 20 minutes, I came to the bar and stood for 15 minutes without anyone asking to take my order. I did get one bartenders attention and asked for a beer when she got a chance. She indicated she would get right to it. After another 15 minutes and no beer or anyone asking me to take my order or even acknowledging me, I left. Not good Potosi!!! read more

Great food but music is way too loud. Do not sit near the speakers if you intend to have a conversation.

Came for work lunch. Started with stuffed jalepino and Mac n cheese balls, both were good. Then had a beer or 2, kind of disappointed in the choices, kind of thought they would have a wider selection. I had the brisket sandwich, a little dry needed a little more sauce, fries are good. Others had the A1 burger, 1 guy liked it as is the other said his needed more A1. Next I'll have to go for the music. read more

Potosi Live - Menu code - Seafood Near Me - Abilene, Texas

So if you've been to one restaurant in Abilene, you've been to them all. The service staff walked around like they were all on speed. It was filled with melanin deficient individuals who don't have taste buds and who are content with greasy food and country music that tells tales about riding dirt roads with your memaw in the bed of your Ford while sipping on your key stone beer. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is wonderful. The service is very good and friendly. It is great for gathering.

Server Annie was wonderful. Fried catfish was awful. It was about 10 fish nuggets that were 90% crunchy batter & 10% fish. It had no fish taste. Everyone around me was enjoying their other dishes (not catfish). Two of the pieces contained zero fish. I was starved and disappointed. Everyone around me enjoyed their non-fish meals and made a lot of yum sounds. . read more

It's a cool place. Food and drinks are okay. The music is very loud. Can't really socialize with anyone at your table read more

Love the venue itself- great space for large groups and live music, but the service is horrible! I have been to Potosi Live on a number of occasions, each time, hoping for a better experience! Last week, I waited 20 minutes for waters for the table, then another 45 just to have our drink order taken. Food comes out at random times. The drinks are hit or miss- guess it depends on the bartender. I ordered a chilton, which they put artificial lemon in- YUCK! The whole point of the drink is fresh lemon! My friends and family have decided enough is enough. We won't be giving them ANOTHER chance. Very sad. read more

Grabbed a quick lunch here today on the way to the doctors. They are only open Thursday through Saturday. My husband got the fried catfish and was very happy with his meal. I ordered the black and salmon and for my taste, it was a little bit too much seasoning on the salmon, so I only ate one of the two generous pieces. The hush puppies are rather bland, and could either use some sugar or some other pizzazz. The royal vegetables were a bit to seasoned also for my taste, but were good. House salad was just standard bag, lettuce, but with carrots and some cherry tomatoes added. They could stand cull lettuce. Overall good service & food. read more

When we walked into this place it was rather cool looking. It is quite impressive. In where you eat there is a dj area where they control the music. Then they have a stage for performers at night. It then has an area for concerts. The food was just okay. My food had to be recooked again. And, the waitress overcharged on the bill. read more

Great food and drinks, live entertainment tons of fun. Always a good place to meet family and friends.

Lots of fun. From Cowboys games to live Music every weekend, this is the place! The concert series in the Summer are always fun too.

LOVE THIS PLACE! Great service and amazing food! Definitely take the time to come out and enjoy the atmosphere, food, and drinks. Great place for hanging out with friends! read more

Here for a Pat Green concert, not allowed to leave the venue to check on babysitters and kids and be admitted back into the venue. Our home was less than 5 minutes away. Bad policy and rules by management, will not attend another event at this venue. read more

Food and service is excellent. A lot of choices! Huge atmosphere that makes it fun. Always enjoy going here

Went in with my family to have some crawfish and shrimp. The food was amazing!!! And the service was even better, Annie was great and helped us with any questions and brought everything out so fast! Totally recommend read more

Great space. Definitely more of an event venue with food rather than a restaurant with entertainment. Not sure what it is like at lunch but for a dinner crowd before the band took the stage the piped music made conversation at the table really difficult, if not impossible. Service was good but it was obvious they were a bit short staffed which is par for the course right now. Food was decent but everything on the menu was overpriced by about $1.00 or so considering the size of the portions though there were plenty of fries. I'd say out of the six meals at the table the catfish and the chicken fried steak were the best. The grilled chicken sandwich, the brisket sandwich and the brisket burrito were on the small side. Brisket had good flavor but was a smidge dry. Not as good as when it was JoJo's Barbecue in this same location. That being said no one ordered the seafood specialties and the crawfish boil at the table next to us was huge. Verdict--make the drive from Abilene for the show on the schedule but not necessarily for the food. read more
