I mean its hard to type and eat............
Nom, I didn't get my round size from eating elsewhere
The Lil girl was an extremely pleasant hostess

Good mex...no frills here. Portions ate more than adequate. They make there own mild salsa, but options with more spice are bottled. The cleanliness could use some support. I would opt for food to go next time. The better news is I would come back. Lots of mex choices on the central coast. This one is not on the main drag but their prices reflect that...good value for money. They have a few standard mex beers on tap including Negra Modello.

The epitome of "unassuming," Pancho's offered up hot and tasty Mexican food. Our choices were the enchiladas suizas, with a luxurious green salsa, and the chicken avocado salad, topped with a sliced avocado half. This is a storefront restaurant, adjacent to a Rite Aid, and the food was outstanding.
