“We love the other Pancho locations but live on the south east side. So to hear that they opened one 15 min from me was so amazing. They didn’t disappoint!!! The amazing service and outstanding food. Every time we come the food is hot and delicious, the service is fast, friendly and attentive. Our drinks are never under half full and when I ordered some cheese dip with my carnitas they brought it out with my food!! Any location you go to you won’t be disappointed. WE LOVE PANCHOS!!“

“This place is truly authentic Mexican food. I felt like I stepped into a little restaurant in a Mexican town and made an order of food there. Wonderful food. Will go there many more times!The food is made in a food truck/trailer next to the building. The cashiers bring it in to you. Not much space to eat. Maybe 6 or so tables. Lots of people get it to go.The attached grocery store is like stepping into another culture as well. Awesome place.“
“Delightfully surprised by this place. It was clearly a convenience store at one time, now a hole in the wall style Mexican joint with amazingly good food. They are still doing various renovations, so a bit cluttered inside but honestly that doesn’t matter - this place is all about the food. I had the Carnitas Tortas, basically a pork sandwich. It was so big I only ate half. Very tasty. The red hot sauce has a nice kick to it. They have authentic Mexican drinks available in the old cooler, including authentic Coca Cola in a glass bottle. I will definitely be coming back here to try the many different items on their menu.“
“I recently tried this elote food truck and it was really good! The corn was grilled perfectly, and the sauce had a nice flavor. They also topped it off with a generous amount of cheese. The people running the truck were friendly too. Overall, it's definitely worth checking out if you're craving some tasty elote in “

“Small menu with excellent food. I had the 3 taco platter with shredded beef, and it was outstanding. Beef was succulent and flavorful, flour tortillas were loaded with meat and shredded cheese. The green salsa set it over the top. Probably some of the best Mexican food I've had in a very long time, and I have a pretty high bar when it comes to Mexican food. The prices were very reasonable. We didn't have any margaritas, but the ones we saw going to tables looked good -“

“What a beautiful hidden gem! Every detail was top notch from the architecture, to the decor, to the thorough and friendly service. The food is fresh— not microwaved— and delicious.
