Mexican Restaurants near Brandon

“Panchos Cantina in Brandon deserves all the hype and then some. We stopped in for dinner and were blown away from the moment the food hit the table. The carnitas came out sizzling on a cast-iron skillet piled high with tender, juicy pork and sweet grilled onions. It was the kind of portion that makes you stop and stare for a second before digging in. Every bite was rich, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Honestly, this might be my new go-to carnitas spot in Mississippi.

The sides were just as delicious. The rice was seasoned perfectly, the refried beans were creamy with that melted cheese on top, and the fresh lettuce, pico, sour cream, and guacamole rounded everything out. Even the grilled jalapeños were incredible. Everything tasted homemade and came out piping hot.

We also tried the street-style tacos, and those didn’t disappoint either. Packed with meat and onions and served with beans, rice, and sauces, they were a whole meal on their own. Generous portions all around, and everything looked as good as it tasted.

On top of the food, Panchos had live music going, which gave the whole place such a fun, upbeat atmosphere. Great food, great drinks, great music, and friendly service. It felt like the kind of night out you want to repeat.

We had an awesome time and will absolutely be going back. Highly recommend!“

“Our favorite local restaurant. They treat us like family and the food is always amazing. We go at least once a week. So wonderful. ❤️“

“Ordered a quick dinner to go. The order was ready fairly quickly. Service was excellent. Food was hot,fresh&delicious. I ordered a sampler, chicken fajita nachos and the special cheese dip. They were all delicious and the portions were generous. I’m sure we will frequent this restaurant again soon!“

“I wanna add my 2 cents to these bad reviews. This is a stop I always make when visiting Brandon because of its ✨made to order✨ and “fresher” options. So by not going in and *making your order* it will not be to your standard. Yes, I order a bowl and order inside through the line which contributes to more control over the meal being made. But also, it’s been high schoolers working every time I visit here. As someone who was once a high schooler working in the food industry, it’s not pretty 😂 some of us are just starting to learn how to prepare any type of food, ESPECIALLY to the standard ✨other✨ people have. Yes the drive thru is convenient but at that point, you’re leaving your meal up to high schoolers and that’s just that 🤷🏼‍♀️ So to my hometown moes, you’ve never let me down and no staff has ever been rude, they’ve always been so courteous!“

“I’m not going to lie this is perhaps the best longest standing Taco Bell location in the state. The food is always fresh and u remember dining at this location with my grandfather in the late 90’s it was good then and just as good now. I must admit, this Taco Bell location is perhaps the best and longest-standing in the state. The food is consistently fresh, and I fondly recall dining here with my grandfather in the late 90s. It was just as good then as it is now.“

“Excellent service and delish food.“

“I DoorDashed them and they went over and beyond. Good job cinco, I haven’t had food turn out this well in quite some time 👏🏻“

“The staff is very friendly and helpful with suggestions of dishes. The shrimp and octopus soup was the best soup I have ever eaten. All the dishes I have tried have been so fresh and flavorful. I highly recommend Xalisco for the best authentic dishes around Jackson.“
