" I visited Popo's after hearing rave reviews from friends, hoping to find a fantastic place to eat in Roswell. The staff were exceptionally friendly, but the restaurant itself could use some upgrades. I ordered a combo plate with a taco, enchilada, and sopapilla. The flavors were outstanding! However, the tacos could have used a bit more seasoning. Overall, a solid experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Popo's based on the glowing reviews, but my experience was somewhat mixed. While the food was decent, I found the flavors lacking a bit of the authenticity I was hoping for. The green chili stew was okay but didn’t wow me. Service was not great; the waiter forgot my order and brought a different dish. On a positive note, the atmosphere was quaint. I might give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I come here, I find something new to love! The red sauce is rich and flavorful, and they always serve up generous portions. While the atmosphere could use some sprucing up, it has its own charm. I just can't stress enough how much I like the food. The variety on the menu ensures there's something for everyone. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of the best hidden gems around! Popo's offers truly authentic and hearty Mexican food. On my latest visit, I tried their beef enchiladas and they were just divine! The prices are incredibly reasonable for the portion sizes you receive. Although the staff can be a bit slow at times, their food definitely makes up for it. Don't miss out on this place if you're in Roswell! " (*Curated Review*)

" After many recommendations, I finally had the chance to visit Popo's. I ordered the taco plate and was surprised at how fresh everything tasted. The salsa was bursting with flavor! The only downside was that my server seemed preoccupied and took a while to get my drink refill. I will return to try other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

My favorite dish has to be the carne adovada; it’s simply delicious! Popo's is a treasure for anyone who enjoys authentic New Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Popo's! Their food is so flavor-packed. I had the chicken enchiladas and the red sauce was just divine. Perfectly cooked and excellent presentation. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was casual and cozy. You get a lot of food for a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food.
