“I was nearby visiting my wife in the hospital, and I remember seeing some young man wearing a Chicanos t-shirt near my house which is about 1.5 hours away.
So I decided to go by and get a couple of items to go and eat them when I got home.
By the time I got home it was really late, but I decided to taste everything anyway and it was absolutely fantastic!
Much better tasting than I was expecting and they were very generous with everything and their portions.
I got the pork posole, which came with a couple of bean tostadas! To my excitement and surprise! And the Posole?
Was both chicken and pork cooked into the stew, but here you have to choose whether you want to have pork or chicken. So this is something I was not used to and I thought I was going to be disappointed.
Having chosen pork, when I rewarmed it the next morning I was unbelievably surprised at how fantastic this was, easily some of the best posole I've had in a decade!
A carne asada burrito, which came with chips and salsa.
And I remember thinking to myself when I picked up the burritos oh my gosh this thing is really a big burrito! I haven't seen a real size burrito since I left the West Coast in 2010! ? The taste was absolutely fantastic and it even had grilled jalapenos in it which just kicked the flavor up another notch!
Not to be not to sound arrogant, but this Salsa was so good, it was like if I made it myself, super fresh! ?
I have to say my favorite thing was the chorizo tacos!
Anyone that grew up with real Mexican chorizo and knows what they're exactly it's supposed to taste like and these tacos absolutely did!!
Chicano's, Let me know if you guys sell your t-shirts, cuz I would absolutely and gladly wear one all over! I need a size XL! ?
Great job, cocineros! Muchas Gracias!“

“I Had* been trying every single place within 50 miles of the Poconos, i even went to NY to try to find really good tacos, I have to say this is the best place you can go for real Authentic Mexican Cuisine this side of Philidelphia food truck tacos! I have since brought my family and friends and we can all agree this is the best place to eat in Scranton. Enjoy!“

“I don't leave a whole lot of reviews but this place is above par. I am not one bit surprised all the reviews so far are 5 stars. I ordered delivery, they called to clarify a discrepancy in my order. Food was here in less than 30 mins and it was hot, fresh and so absolutely delicious! I feel like I just ate a home cooked meal that's been cooking all day. Highly recommend for great service, hospitality and amazing food“

“Excellent homemade & authentic Mexican food. We stopped by around 2:45pm, and the food was amazing. Mixed meat tacos on corn tortillas, and sopes. The side sauces that came with the meal were superb. Perfectly sweetened horchata as well. On our way out, we grabbed one of the pastries —- pan de leche (?)— reminded of an egg custard meets pound cake meets cheesecake. We will come back again soon.“

“Hidden Gem.
The guacamole is amazing. It's a must get.
Tacos the Monterey is worth getting. The house made chimichurri should be bottles and sold in stores.

They had a stage and probably have a band on some days.

Not a ton of tables unsure if it ever gets really busy but was there around 330pn on a Saturday.

We will be back!“

“My first time at this location. I stopped in after my VA appt. I just wanted to take a moment to highlight Mark! He provided excellent service and was very personable. We got to chatting about us both being veterans so that made my day as well. His energy is electric and contagious. You can't help but to smile! Thank you so much Mark!“

“I had lunch there last week (June 11, 2025) The Dickson City Location. I had a lovely young woman at the bar serve me her name is Jahijya. She was so nice, very friendly it was a pleasure having a conversation with her! I also met Jeremy the bartender he was also very nice and knowledgeable as i asked him about a few drinks the way he makes them. My meal was the lunch special $12.99 nice portion. 3 small chimmichonga's rice & beans. guacamole/ chips which i prefer on Friday made fresh table side. A great experience! Have been there before several times but this time was my favorite. Jacki“

“Best Mexican food in the area. Large portions. Very nice people. Highly recommended. Try it.“

“Their burritos are really good, though it seems like they've cut the amount of meat in each one and replaced that with more rice... Made with fresh ingredients and they are pretty big. One burrito will cost you about $13 as of February 2025, so it's not cheap. If you come while it's busy you may wait in line for about 20 minutes. The tables and bathrooms are usually dirty if it's busy. Burritos are good though 😁“

“Comida 100% Mexicana los caldos el pozole el menudo las quesadillas ni se diga un pedacito de nuestro México 🇲🇽 lindo y querido Dios bendiga las personas que preparan esas delicias“

“Met my children their last night for dinner. What a find. Easy to get to, not same old tired menu selection, great food with detailed presentation. Strong service staff. Look forward to going back when in the area.“

“The owner made margaritas for us and they were delicious. No mix used, which is bizarrely a rarity in Mexican restaurants.

Had Al Pastor, Birria, guac, queso. Everything was very good. The Al Pastor and guac especially were A+ 10/10.“

“I was feeling sick and I asked if they can make a soup for me and they was very kind and made it for me with love and dedication. The chicken soup was delicious served with a rice side and tostones (fried plantains).I am very grateful and I really enjoyed it!“

“The food was great. The birria tacos were so on point. The al pastor taco was best I've ever had. The pizza was excellent also“

“What a nice surprise 10% off for teachers.. thank you Taco Bandido.. delicious“

“Very clean inside- frequent here several times a month. They usually forget sour cream or other special mods, so double check your order if you do drive-thru. I am forever addicted to their Fire Sauce. Thank god they brought back fiesta potatoes and Mexican Pizza.“

“The experience was pleasant, the employees were nice, there was plenty of seating, my order was done quickly and efficiently, and the rewards program got me a lot of good deals on meals. The kiosk was a little difficult to deal with so I just scanned my receipts on the app to get my points.“
