La Potosina Restaurant

Very friendly staff and management. Food was delicious! Love the décor and cozy atmosphere. Very family friendly and again the food was really good. My wife and I both agree that we would make the trip to Danville IL from Urbana just to eat here.

Great restaurant!!!! Some of the most authentic food that I've ever tasted!!! Our server David was amazing too!!!!!! I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others!!!

Was looking forward to trying this place to see what the fuss was all about but was very disappointed. The server was abrupt and not very personable. Just seemed like he was churning through tables and trying to get people in and out super quick. The food was ok, portions small. Was offered no refill on the chips but was offered a refill at other Mexican restaurants in the area. Not a place I would return to again.

Why is there such a difference between the lapot on north vermillion and the one on south gilbert? Everytime i go to the vermilion store the service is slow and everything is flavorless. The lemonade is water with a tiny hint of lemon, the salsa just tastes like crushed tomatoes, the fajitas are bland. However everything you get at the gilbert store is brimming with excellent flavor.

Good food and good service always plus you can relax and never feel rushed it's the best around

I have never had a bad meal at this location. Service is always above average or better. We go here about twice a month. Great to see that they survived the worst of the pandemic.

I was in Danville and this was one of the few places that still offered dine in, so I stopped there for lunch. They serve Mexican food. I ordered the pork torte because it's one of my favorites and I always like to try it first at any restaurant. There was also a steak option, that I will order if I am ever out there again. The servers were efficient and friendly. They all observed safety protocols, such as masks and gloves. The booths are kind of isolated. Of course, they serve me chips salsa straight off. I also ordered a strawberry margarita which was huge. I had so much brain freeze by

We stopped there on 09-24-2020 for lunch, having driven in from Chicago. The ambiance was good, the food was great and the service was very good. We enjoyed our meal and would stop in again.

The food was decent, but not amazing. I asked for no cheese on my burrito, and sure enough, it came with cheese. We were told 10 minutes for takeout (2 vegetarian burritos) and it took 20.

The reason why you're not seeing any COVID-19 updates on this yelp page is because the business isn't following any state orders. No customers wearing masks, and only about 1/2 the staff wearing masks. Cooks wore masks below their noses. Definitely not recommended.

Great Mexican restaurant. All of us had an excellent meal. Service was friendly and quick. The steak Mexicano (rib eye) was tender and cooked just right. Price was an extreme value. Would definitely return.

Service was just ok and the food is just ok. I ordered Pechuga Potosina and it came out burnt. The free chips and salsa left a lot to be desired for. Find another place and give it a shot.

Yummy, Yummy, Yummmy..... did I say Yummy. Best Mexican Food I have ever had. I sometimes come back to Danville just to eat there.

Honestly, I get treated like an afterthought here. I often dine by myself due to my work schedule. I get awful seating and super slow service compared to when I come with a group. The last time I got a dirty glass with lipstick on it. I wish we had another option. Maybe I'll try El Toro next time. I'm thinking about going there now...
I should have tried it. My fajitas came and they were delicious but no tortillas for another 15 min.

The workers are very polite and they go above and beyond for you. The food is always great, and the free chips and salsa are an added bonus!

My fiance and I have been here several times now and everytime it's been Amazing. The staff are Great and the food delish. The restroom clean and smelling fresh. If you haven't been here what you waiting for. PS try the Mexican drinks as well they are just as tasty as the Pepsi products- try the Horchata 😉

Back home to visit my daughter and of course had to visit our favorite Mexican restaurant. They have completely changed the decor. It now looks old western. Very clean and nice. The food of course was fabulous as always. Service was very good. The staff is friendly and attentive. I have had numerous items on the menu and you can't go wrong with whatever meal you choose. If you love Mexican food like I do, you definitely need to eat here!

As travellers stopping overnight in Danville we wanted something reasonably priced and sit down. Yelp reviews left is to La Potosino on Gilbert St. The food was plentiful, service prompt, and the two "New Plates we ordered, Pechuga Cubsna and Pollo Huasteco, we're spicy and delicious. drinks were very reasonably priced. Highly recommend. A little noisy.

We love this place. It is a great stopping place between Indy and Champaign. Everything we have tried has been yummy. Great service too!

La Potosina (or "the Pot") is a good option for dine-in Mexican good for those that come hungry. The portion sizes are usually very generous and include chips and salsa. Went here for lunch today with a group of 3 and our overall experience was pretty average.

The table chips were fairly cold and stale and were never refilled. The salsa was pretty damn good, bulky with a hint of spiciness.

One of us ordered the quesadilla rellena, which was a cheese quesadilla stuffed with vegetables. Unfortunately he did not detect much (if any) cheese and there was a shrimp on the end of the quesadilla

I have seen some of these reviews with things like "Burger tiny and burnt not very good" and "Fried chicken sandwich was over cooked hard". That's American food. Why did you bother to come to La Potosina?

Also, La Potosina is *not* Taco Bell (where you feel it that night and the next day as well). Taco Bell is "Americanized" food, not *real* Mexican food. Please don't stoop to that comparison.

In the numerous times I have been to La Potosina, they have been courteous, kind and very attentive. I find that when I am respectful and kind, it goes a very long

I ordered chicken tacos. The beef tacos that I received did not amuse me.

I've always wanted to know where Doritos gets their chips before they put spices on them . . . now I know.

Highlight of the night . . . the urinal, and the Pepsi. The Pepsi was really good.

If I wanted to have a slightly spicy taste in my mouth and a bowling ball in my stomach I would've gone to Taco Bell.

I'll let you know if it stays down . . .

Favorite place to eat in Danville!!!

My family and I have been going to LaPot for years and never had a bad experience.
Two thumbs up!!

Best Mexican food in Central Illinois. The salsa is made fresh, but it varies...some days it's that perfect medium "heat" and other days it needs some hot sauce added for my taste.

I recommend the Pechuga Frita (Chicken Breast with grilled onions, cheese sauce, tortillas, rice, and beans), the Burrito Potosina with Shrimp, or the Shrimp Fajitas. The Fiesta Fajitas (steak, chicken, and shrimp) are also very good.

Any dishes with "Colorado" in them are extremely spicy.

I've had nothing on the menu that wasn't good, although the tacos and other ground beef dishes
