About Los Potros Mexican Restaurant

Los Potros Mexican Restaurant is a small Mexican restaurant brand name used by multiple independent locations in the United States, typically operating as full‑service, sit‑down restaurants. One well‑documented example is Los Potros Mexican Restaurant in Silver Creek, Georgia, which serves a broad menu of classic Mexican fare such as tacos, enchiladas, fajitas, combination plates, and margaritas in a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere.([bbb.org](https://www.bbb.org/us/ga/silver-creek/profile/mexican-food/los-potros-0483-80008629?utm_source=openai)) Many locations using the “Los Potros” name focus on approachable pricing, generous portions, and casual dining.

A charge labeled “Payment sent to LOS POTROS” on your card statement most likely corresponds to an in‑person restaurant purchase, such as a meal, bar tab, or takeout order at a restaurant using the Los Potros name. The descriptor format suggests a card‑present restaurant transaction or a payment routed through a processor that formats it as a “payment sent to” a merchant. In most cases, the amount will match your itemized receipt including tax and tip (if tip was added at the terminal) or an authorization that later settles for the final tipped amount.

If you do not recognize this charge, first consider whether you or anyone with access to your card recently dined at a Mexican restaurant named “Los Potros.” Check your email for any order confirmations or your paper receipt if you ate in person. To resolve questions, you can contact the Los Potros location you visited (for example, the Silver Creek, GA location lists its contact details and menu at lospotrosmexican.com) and provide the date, time, and amount of the charge so staff can look it up in their point‑of‑sale system. If the restaurant cannot locate the transaction or you suspect fraud, contact your card issuer to dispute the charge or request a new card number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement say “Payment sent to LOS POTROS” instead of a full restaurant name and address?

Some processors shorten restaurant descriptors to the core business name, so a meal at a Los Potros Mexican Restaurant may appear simply as “Payment sent to LOS POTROS” on your statement, without city or state. This is normal formatting and usually reflects an in‑person restaurant transaction.

What types of charges typically come from Los Potros Mexican Restaurant?

Charges from Los Potros Mexican Restaurant are typically one‑time payments for dine‑in meals, bar tabs, or takeout orders. The final settled amount often includes tax and any tip you added on the receipt or terminal.

Can Los Potros Mexican Restaurant place authorization holds on my card?

Yes. Like many restaurants, Los Potros may place an initial authorization for the estimated bill amount. After you add a tip, the transaction will settle for the final total and the original authorization will fall off, which can briefly make it look like you see two amounts until your bank updates.

I don’t recognize this Los Potros charge. How can I verify it?

First, match the date and amount with any recent restaurant visits by you or family members. Then call the Los Potros location you’re most likely to have visited—such as the Silver Creek, GA restaurant listed at lospotrosmexican.com—and provide the charge date, time window, and exact amount so staff can search their point‑of‑sale records.([bbb.org](https://www.bbb.org/us/ga/silver-creek/profile/mexican-food/los-potros-0483-80008629?utm_source=openai))

Does Los Potros Mexican Restaurant offer online ordering or phone orders that might explain this charge?

Many Los Potros locations accept phone orders and may partner with online ordering platforms for pickup or local delivery. If someone in your household placed a takeout order, the descriptor on your bank statement may still appear as “LOS POTROS” even if the order was initiated online or by phone.

How do I request a refund or correction for a Los Potros charge (for example, if I was over‑tipped or charged twice)?

Contact the specific Los Potros restaurant where you dined as soon as possible, ideally with a copy of your receipt. Ask to speak with a manager and explain the discrepancy. They can review the ticket in their system and, if warranted, issue a partial refund or void a duplicate charge through their payment processor.

Is this a recurring subscription or membership charge from Los Potros?

No. Charges from Los Potros Mexican Restaurant are generally one‑time restaurant transactions and not recurring subscriptions. If you see repeated charges you don’t recognize, it may be that someone is frequently using your card at the restaurant, or there could be fraud—contact your bank if you suspect unauthorized use.

What should I do if the Los Potros restaurant cannot find my transaction but I still see the charge?

If the restaurant is unable to locate the charge based on the date, time, and amount, ask your bank for the full transaction details (authorization code, exact descriptor, and time stamp) and share those with the restaurant. If it still cannot be matched, work with your card issuer to open a dispute or have your card number replaced in case of unauthorized use.
