We love Ponces. The food, margaritas and staff are amazing. It's like family who really know how to cook.

My favorite Mexican place right now. Taco happy hour special is crazy good and cheap. I like the enchiladas, combination burrito, pretty much everything. Chips/salsa/guac/queso all outstanding!

Ordered to go the enchiladas suizas and came home with watery and unseasoned chicken, plastic cheese, and a hair in my rice. Disappointed in my meal, the quality is inconsistent each visit. I would recommend avoiding this place towards the end of the evening or at all at this rate. Waste of $.

We love Ponce's. They always give us excellent service. The food was wonderful but I had my mouth set for their mole, which they took off the menu! I had the fajitas and took home some enchiladas suizas! The margaritas especiales are not to be missed!

One of the few places that offer vegetarian beans & rice (not cooked in lard or chicken broth). We were so satisfied with the quality of the food (best burrito we’ve ever had) and the quality of the service!

We had Ponce's cater a nacho bar for an anniversary party and they absolutely hit it out of the park! From coming up with the ideas of what would be perfect for our group, to keeping us informed of when everything would be ready for pick up, and giving us everything we would need (especially the things we didn't think of) to make the food portion of our event sun smoothly, Ponce's was on top of it all. Of course the food was amazing! Their service was outstanding, and we can't wait to order from them again. Until we have another big event, we'll be stopping in for their great food just to keep ourselves happy. Don't sleep on their catering services! They are outstanding!

It seems like ownership or management has changed. I used to come here all the time and then s few years passed and I returned. The food was okay, smaller menu and staff aren't that interested in really serving.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Ponce’s Catering for our recent non-profit fundraiser, and they went above and beyond in every way. With only a month’s notice, Karen and her team crafted an exceptional catering plan that not only fit within our budget but far exceeded our expectations in both quality and service. Because food was included in the price of admission, it was important to us that our guests felt they were receiving a full experience—and Ponce’s delivered. The team arrived on time, set up a clean and well-organized service area, and managed an impressive variety of food and condiments with seamless professionalism. The food itself was nothing short of outstanding. Our guests could not stop raving about both the flavor and the generous portions. Ponce’s Catering struck the perfect balance of authenticity, freshness, and abundance—leaving everyone more than satisfied. We wholeheartedly recommend visiting their restaurant in Kensington, San Diego to experience their incredible food firsthand. And if you’re planning an event, trust us—Ponce’s Catering will not just meet your expectations, they will over-deliver.
