    Birria tacos
    Andres L.

    Listen up! This spot is the real deal. Straight up authentic Mexican food that actually hits. It's located inside a plaza with plenty of parking. It's the kind of place you shouldn't judge just from the outside cause let me tell you... The food is legit. The tacos are classic street style with cilantro and onion, juicy, flavorful, and not dry at all. The quesadilla was crispy outside, loaded inside, and super satisfying. The burrito was grilled, packed, and filling in the best way. Honestly one of the best burritos I've had in a long time, and this one is memorable The birria with the sauce on the side is the standout. Rich, savory, and perfect for dipping. A little Messy but worth it. The Guac and pico tasted fresh, everything felt just right, and the portions were solid for the price. No fancy presentation, just really good, authentic food. Definitely a spot I'd go back to.

    Carne asada taco, al pastor taco and birria taco

    Went here for a weekly Sunday date with my girlfriend. It was around noon so pretty empty. Place plays music videos but has it at a decent volume and also plays movies with no volume on another TV. An array of seating options. When seated you order your drinks and get some chips and salsa. The salsa is is really good. Just the right amount of kick. I later used it over the green sauce they gave us with our food cause the green sauce had no heat at all. I ordered 3 tacos, carne asada, al pastor and birria. The birria didn't come with compote but they made a side of it for it for $1. It comes with the compote if you order the 3. Just something to note. The tacos were all delicious. I opted to using the salsa the chips came with since the green sauce wasn't that spicy but it all came out great. The compote was so delicious I decided to take the leftover home to mix it another day with some other food. Service was good overall. I ended up taking to go tacos to give to my family and our server had no issues with splitting the bill between the two orders.

    We had a boat day in Miami and were craving tacos found this gem through Yelp and it did not disappoint! The tacos were flavorful and fresh, and the drinks were perfectly refreshing with freshly squeezed juices. The service was fast and friendly even with a group of seven, our food came out quickly. There's plenty of indoor seating and the atmosphere was super casual and welcoming. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    Really good tacos and margaritas! Came in for taco Tuesday and the Pollo, Carnitas, and Al Pastor tacos were $1.99 each. They all had good flavor and the green sauce they came with was really good. Carnitas taco was the favorite! Chips and salsa were complimentary. They have good flavor choices for the margaritas, they were $9.50 each and supposedly they have happy hour Wednesday-Friday. I highly recommend checking this taco Tuesday spot out! It wasn't too busy and the service was good. Very authentic vibes.

    Super good came to try the chicken tacos and horchata the guacamole was perfect was so good I forgot to take the before picture

    They do not have military discount, but that's is not the reason for my 1 star review. While visiting Miami with a group of 4, how does it make sense to give a table of 4 people a SINGULAR salsa that small! When I ask for more she gave me 2 more. So someone had to share theirs. BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE! How in the world did they just select some of us to take gratuity. That makes no sense, so beware visitors 3 tacos and one drink will run you 20+ dollars and you may get a forced gratuity. The customer service didn't even feel hospitable and I'm Spanish my self so it's not like any of that demeanor was called for. Asada taco was dry, tripa tacos were not clean and taste grainy but the fish taco were actually really delicious and tender.

    Pollo, carnitas, al pastor
    Mag T.

    **Taco Tuesday $1.50 a piece all day.** Al pastor, carnitas, or pollo. The best was carnitas so juicy!!! Al pastor had 0 pineapple but still good! Chicken was ok a little dry. Tacos came with a spicy green sauce that was delicious!

    Top Miami Mexican restaurant for sure. I had the Chicken burrito from the Lunch Special Menu. I ate my burrito even before my friend started eating his second half. I forgot to ask if they do unlimited chips and salsa Great Service and Ambiance.

    Asada Torta - minimal meat.... was basically an avocado sandwich with pico.
    Keri M.

    Empanadas were frozen in the middle, chicken was dry, terribly overcooked and salty, and the Asada torta had a few pieces of meat. Horrible. Wish I could say something was good but the entire experience was trash.

Parking was a bit challenging due to the limited number of spaces, but once we walked inside, the experience more than made up for it. We were warmly greeted by Carolina, who also became our server. She was incredibly patient and took her time walking us through the menu, explaining each dish and how everything is prepared. Her dedication to customer satisfaction truly stood out, and we hope management recognizes what an asset she is. Carolina proudly shared that every item on the menu is made in‑house, and it absolutely shows. My wife ordered the Quesadilla de Pollo with a side of Arroz Mexicano and couldn't stop talking about the exceptional flavors. I chose the Tostada al Pastor, a small Tortilla Soup, and a side salad. Everything was delicious, but the Tortilla Soup was the star of the meal--a perfect example of why in‑house preparation matters. Since we're not from the area, we weren't sure where to go for lunch, and we truly lucked out choosing Don Maguey--and having Carolina as our server. Thank you, Carolina. As the banner on the app says, MEXICAN FOOD MADE WITH LOVE, and our visit proved it.

    BEWARE: Before I get to the food; the waitress is manipulating the system to receive more of a tip…read more My food total charge with tax was $60 and change, I left a $10 and change tip. When I looked 20 minutes after at my credit card statement read I had been charged $77 and change pending a potential tip on top of that, even with tip included it is still over approximately $7 what I signed off for. We called to determine the prices of each individual meal and "the manager" was stumbling to tell us the prices for everything. Even with the fake numbers that were given to us it still didn't add up correctly. I remember the prices for the 3 meals my family and I ordered and I remember what the check said. I let it be because maybe they need more than I do. As for the food, I'm born and raised on the border of Mexico and although I must say it does scream authenticity especially on appearance the meat is bland, and that "Mexican rice" is by far the worst tasting rice I've had. For a casual person that likes Mexican food you may like it, but if you know what you're tasting you will not. Also, they didn't have 4 different things on the menu available ultimately leading me to have to go with my 5th option. It is very expensive for what it is, and even more expensive when your waitress manipulates the system.

We went here between January 27 & February 6/2026. La Potranca has five Florida locations, but this cantina does not feel like a chain. Authentic sabor Mexicano with an excellent friendly staff. Family friendly & handi-able accesible from the parking lot. This location gets full by 7pm but there is extended service & seating in the common covered courtyard. Plenty of parking in this strip mall location. Service is excellent, fast, & great choices of tacos & drinks. You can choose from 14 different meats/cuts for your tacos, including birria & al pastor. Bow to the taco! Also gringas, vampiros, & burritos. They have bowls (they're BIG) & brunch. p.s. try the churros with 3 dipping sauces. Drinks are extra special here. The clamato & beer cocktail is very unique. Served in a Tajin rimmed large mug, with lime & a tamarind wrapped straw. Excellante! Also a variety of margaritas served in whimsical glasses & their three house cervazas (beers) on draft. La Potranca pays homage to iconic singer & actor Vincente Fernandez "King of Ranchera". Check out the interesting connection with the staff or online. The staff here is excellent. Very helpful when navigating the menu. Very friendly. True professionals. Special shout out to Mauricio & Ralphael - you hombres make this place truly special. Mucho Gracias. We give La Potranca our highest recommendation.

The hardest part about dining here was deciding what I wanted to order. I could have ordered the entire menu it looked so good! Helpful tip... check out the menu and know what you're going to order before you get in line. Otherwise you're going to be pressured to order at the front of the line. When you walk in, you place your order and pay for it and take a table number. You need to find your own table. Our service was pretty quick, despite how busy the restaurant was. My cold brew was very good and a nice start to the meal. Our guacamole came next and it was nicely styled with pomegranate, cheese and cilantro on top. Yum! The real star of the show for me was this unassuming looking House Club Sandwich that was to die for. Seriously ... it was so good. I ordered mine without the ham, and it was divine!

Online it shows the quesadilla is $13, when I ordered it was $14 + 2.50 for onions and tomatoes (which ended up coming on the side). Also, when I asked to order that, the waitress was a bit rude. So I ended up paying $17.82 for a terrible quesadilla and experience. I really liked the horchata matcha though (hence the 2 stars).

The open view kitchen allowed us to watch the handcrafted tortilla baking & wall showcasing over 400 mezcales & tequilas. We sat outdoors in the magnificent cacti garden. We started with frozen margaritas, they were smoky, icy cold & refreshing. We opted to share a skirt steak taco platter, passing up the insects on the menu.

An 18% service charge was added to our bill. Service was quick and on point.

    I've been going to Koko since it opened, and until now I've always had great experiences…read more Unfortunately, my recent visit during the Mexico World Cup match was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in a long time. Before going, we called the restaurant to ask if they would be showing the World Cup games, and we were told they would be showing all of them. Based on that, we expected a good viewing experience. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. There aren't enough TVs, many of the views are obstructed, and we actually had to move to the bar just to see part of the game. Even then, the music was so loud that we couldn't hear the match at all. When we asked the manager about it, he told us that ownership's instructions were to play music instead of the game's audio. That was especially surprising considering this is a Mexican-owned restaurant and the match was a Mexico World Cup game. The biggest disappointment, however, was the service. To be fair, the restaurant was only about half full, so this wasn't a situation where the staff was overwhelmed by a packed house or unusually heavy demand. I was there with two female friends. I ordered a martini while my friends simply asked for water. The bartender reacted as if asking for water was somehow an inconvenience. We weren't even served chips and salsa until we repeatedly waved down members of the staff and specifically requested them. The bartenders consistently ignored us. My friends waited nearly 20 minutes before anyone came back so they could order their martinis. We later ordered guacamole and the Leña skirt steak. The guacamole arrived promptly, but the steak never did. When we asked another bartender to check on it, he looked in the system and told us there was no food order entered at all. This was unbelievable because the original bartender had described the dish, asked how we wanted the steak cooked, and appeared to take the order. He simply never entered it. When we complained to the manager about the missing food, he told us the kitchen was already closed but that he would "make an exception" and have the steak prepared for us. That response really upset me because this wasn't us asking for special treatment--it was the restaurant trying to correct its own mistake. I told him to simply cancel the order. He then said not to worry because he wouldn't charge us for it, as if not charging for a meal would somehow make up for the experience we had just endured. I declined the offer, but he responded by saying he would bring it anyway and that if we didn't want it, we could just leave it there. To me, that response was even more dismissive and completely missed the point. Throughout the evening, the bartenders were inattentive, dismissive, and consistently rude. Their attitude completely overshadowed what had always been one of my favorite restaurants in Coconut Grove. By halftime, we had simply had enough. Instead of continuing what should have been a fun night, we decided to leave the restaurant and go home, where we watched the rest of the Mexico match in the comfort of my home. Sadly, that turned out to be the best part of the night. I'm writing this review because I know Koko is capable of much better. My previous visits have always been enjoyable, which made this experience even more disappointing. However, if you're planning to watch a World Cup match there, I would strongly recommend choosing another venue. While they may tell you they'll be showing the game, the viewing experience is poor, the game audio is replaced with loud music, and based on our visit, the service was, without question, the worst I've experienced there since the restaurant opened. I sincerely hope management takes this feedback seriously because Koko has always been one of my favorite restaurants, and I'd like to be able to recommend it again. Unfortunately, after this experience, I simply can't.

I was helped out by Adrian and his service was helpful in finding what dishes to order. I took my food to go and it was piping hot, definitely made fresh to order which I enjoyed. The nachos were what I was most eager to try as they are all the rage on social media. They lived up to the hype and that nacho cheese is absolute gold. I love that it's served in a pizza box. It just makes it iconic. It travels well and everything was still hot when I got home. The Al Pastor taco was just okay, nothing to write home about but now the steak burrito was really really good. I love that they don't have rice in their burritos and instead replace it with potatoes, which is absolutely delicious. They give two different types of salsas with your order plus limes and the green salsa is unreal. Add it to everything for a flavor boost!

I took a few bites and had to give the rest to our dogs. What a shame. My daughter couldn't finish her burrito either. I tasted her steak burrito and it didn't taste like any steak that I have ever tried. So disappointing. The guac and chips were good but they were like a little side dish.

Finally when she was helped, the guy said that the bag sitting there was ours!! She was highly irritated fir the poor service. He should have checked to see if his customer was there to pick up the only bag on the counter. In retrospect, we should have tasted our burritos before driving home to taste them but we trusted them. Sorry to say, we won't be going back.
