1. El Potro

El Potro offers good Mexican food at an affordable price. The restaurant is located in a strip mall in Winter Park. They look to do a lot of business with repeat customers, which is always a good sign that the food must be good. There was a lunch buffet as well as the ability to order off of the menu. The restaurant offered plenty of seating so it shouldn't be a problem getting a table even if it is busy.Since I have dietary restrictions I stuck to the menu and stayed away from the buffet. I ordered the Huevos con chorizo which also came with rice and beans. The sides were what you get at pretty much any Mexican restaurant, good but nothing that stood out. The main course was good and would order it again. They also brought out chips and salsa prior to the meal arriving. Again nothing stood out here that would differentiate them from any other similar restaurant.The service was good, but on the tad slow side. If you are looking for someplace to eat, I would recommend El Potro in Winter Park. I just wouldn't go out of my way to go there.

A friend from South Florida recommended this restaurant to us. We've been to several Cuban restaurants in the area, and had not been terribly impressed. But wow. This was so good, and so cheap. The key to any sandwich is the bread, right? this bread is fantastic, crunchy but not too tough on the outside, tender on the inside so that it presses down nicely. The Cuban delivers, but the Brenda is just incredible. I asked the staff what sandwich they recommend, and the Brenda was the pick.The soups are terrific too. The lentil and chorizo is flavorful and filling, but the caldo gallego is even better. The papa rellena, empanadas, and plantains were great as well.

This is not your usual Taco joint The food here is unique and interesting and everything is ala carte. You order at the counter, pay, and wait for them to bring your order. The tacos are small but loaded and surprisingly filling. The corn off the cob is an unusual side dish and it has a bite but it's not too spicy. The guac is fresh and tasty. In fact, all the food looks very fresh like you made it in your own kitchen at home. Reasonably priced? I don't know. $3.75 for a small taco was on the high side IMHO, but then again this isn't Taco Bell. I had the brisket and chicken tacos and both were good. The inside is tiny and there's no indoor seating but there are several tables outside. Free parking on their lot. I would recommend it if you want to try a more authentic taco experience.

I love this place. We live in Daytona, but we like to come here when we have the chance. My favorite is the Vaca Frita, which is a fried shredded beef. So delicious. I don't see this on many menus so I get it here when I come. Staff is always friendly and the food is outstanding and authentic. Also, you HAVE to get a cup of coffee. Try the Cortadito. Oh my goodness. Best in the universe. :-) One final note: they bake their bread fresh, so don't forget to order some with your meal. Thank you Becky, we hope to see you again soon!!!
