Don Pancho Villa - Taco Salad and Quesadillas - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

No words. The woman in the front literally hung up the phone on my boyfriend after stealing our tres leche cake and drinks. So also gave us enchiladas Verde even though we asked her for red sauce. And my boyfriend speaks Spanish. Shame on the lady's at the front. read more

Came here just for El pollo en Mole verde, this may be the only Mexican Restaurant in the Tampa area that has this Traditional Mexican dish in their menu (Only weekends) but they have it. The mole was delicious, flavorful, the rice and beans were fresh and the homemade tortillas were perfect. To top things off I got a fresh Agua de Melon that made everything better! read more

Don Pancho Villa - Pollo en mole verde - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

The best Mexican spot for authentic Mexican food. This place is the real deal. Service is good, food is AMAZING. Their al pastor, lengua, and carnitas are my favorite. Their molcajete is massive but super tasty if you enjoy spicy foods. Everytime I am in town I make sure to stop by for some food and go next door for some groceries or Mexican snacks! read more

Always in search of a new Mexican place. I read other reviews on YELP so I went for lunch. What they lack in ambiance, they make up for in flavor and quality. The music is too loud. The menu came with no prices posted. But, I had a carnitas plate that was so good and so generous that I have fresh corn tortillas and carnitas for another lunch. The food is excellent and the service was prompt and friendly. I think I'll order to go next time. But this was a great experience. read more

This is my first time trying this place. I'm a sucker for Mexican food and I'm still searching for great here in Pinellas county. My son and I both ordered street tacos. One chicken and one carne asada. The carne asada was really good. The chicken was decent but not as good as the steak. I was going to get a margarita but at 12.95, I opted for a $4 beer instead. Some of the menu prices seemed a little high but the tacos were reasonably priced. I found it a little peculiar that they bring out a bowl of popcorn vs the traditional chips and salsa. It was good popcorn though and we ate it. Just different. The salsas are mixed for me. The red salsa is chipotle, which I do not like. The green salsa is really good but super spicy. I had to be very moderate while adding and it was still hot! I would definitely go back and try something different. Service was good and the restaurant was tidy. I give it a 3.75/5. read more

Genuine Mexican food clean you get a good portion for the money a little tricky to drive into the parking lot but besides that it's close on Drew and 19 on the east side of 19 I highly recommend it give it a shot. I don't think you will be disappointed. Service was excellent ambience. It was a restaurant. I mean, you don't go there for the ambience you go there for the food. read more

Long awaited tasting of Don Pancho Villa. Service was excellent, welcoming and friendly. Felt like a classic Mexican restaurant. The wood , chairs and tables. The main reason we're here the tacos!! We sampled; steak, pastor,cachete, tongue, tripa and chicharrón. Wow absolutely delicious each one. The homemade tortillas were superb. Nice thickness and texture. Wow definitely an unexpected gem of a place! read more

Don Pancho Villa - Half a burrito .. - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

If you want authentic definitely try this place! Highly recommend and will be our new go to spot for Mexican food.

Great Mexican food right on Hwy 19. Service is friendly and fast. They have takeout in their store adjacent to restaurant, also is a market. Loved the birria and shrimp fajitas. You must get the big bottle of Corona cerveza with the frosted mug and tanjin on the rim. Surprised with popcorn instead of chips but it was ok. This place always seems to be busy and parking is tenuous. Restaurant is clean well lit and plenty of seating, great for a date night read more

Food and service are great. Atmosphere is awesome! Specially when they bring flights of margaritas and music and dance. Prices is average for sit in restaurant. Waitstaff is great as well. I took my visiting family and they all loved it. read more

My bf ordered me cinco pollo tacos from here as a surprise. He told me that the server and cooks were lively and everyone was having a good time. So the ambiance was warm and welcoming. When I came home the tacos were waiting for me. He asked me to try them in front of him to see my reaction. Let me tell ya'll something out of majority of the Mexican restaurants I've tried in FL, these tacos are the juiciest. They are very succulent and have just the right amount of seasoning on them. Not dry at all, not over powered by onions and not greasy. Everything was evenly proportioned and so delicious. I couldn't finish all of them, so I will be finishing them tomorrow. I am one satisfied taco connoisseur. read more

Don Pancho Villa - Pollo Taco - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Where do I place my order from here? I found a sign indicating that the restaurant is now located next door, complete with a big arrow pointing in that direction. Once I entered the new restaurant, the staff quickly informed me that it's only for dine-in and that I need to head back to the piñata store to place my order. It would be much clearer if there was a sign stating "Dine-In Only; To-Go Orders Must Be Placed at the Store." It's quite confusing! The tacos al pastor were a bit rubbery for me, the salsa was like a thick pasta sauce consistency for me and it was ok. The guacamole was also ok. I don't see what all the hype was for here, The flavor was ok. I love authentic tacos but this place was a hard pass for me. The store where you order from is funky it's like a cool bodega that sells everything from toys and party supplies and food. read more

Locals eat and shop here and most only speak Spanish, so we knew it would be GOOD! Homemade tortillas were dynamite, not to mention the Fajitas and fresh fixins. Housemade sauces also great. Dinner for 2 with drinks for $40...and an adventure down the aisles as after dinner entertainment. read more

this place is good. it's a hit or miss with their tacos but it's one of our to-go places for tacos in pinellas county now. i like getting their lengua & cabeza tacos. My husband likes their carne asada tacos. their al pastor sometimes can be bland or undercook, and it's not cooked via rotating vertical broiler. the workers are nice, only the cashier area can speak english.. but there are times when i go there it gets difficult. This place is also a little grocery store. They have mexican snacks, drinks, candies, conchas! read more

This is my favorite spot for authentic Mexican food. The fajitas are always sizzling, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. My personal favorite is the Molcajete -- packed with amazing flavor, generous portions, and served hot in the traditional stone bowl. Great food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere make this place a must-visit! read more

I just dealt with the most racist lady that rang me up at the register. She even tried to grab my card from my hand when I swiped it wrong. This was such a disgusting encounter and I won't be coming back again. Not to mention they were cleaning the fridge area that holds all the fresh meat and there was tons of mold and scum throughout. Seriously nauseating. Then the fruits and veggies.. they had a million fruit flies everywhere. How is this acceptable? I feel dirty leaving that place. read more

Been coming here for years and always enjoy the tacos. Lengua, Tripas, and Cabeza being our favorites. Tortillas are delicious and if I'm not mistaken, are made in-house. Would love to see a salsa bar someday. read more

Definitely one of my favorite places to eat at service is always good. Food is really good. The tacos are good and the Mexican drink. Horchata is really good from there. The only thing that would make this place perfect in my opinion is if they had fountain drinks instead of pre-bottled drinks and offer free refills for the fountain drinks but overall good place to eat with family or just by yourself and also one thing I forgot to mention about the popcorn is not really that good read more

The food was fresh and flavorful. The waitress was pleasant and attentive. The parking isn't the best, so I parked in the adjacent lot, I had to circle around , but it was worth it. I had the pollo sopas and I would definitely order them again. It came with three, but two was plenty. read more

Finally had the chance to try this spot and what I thought was a small restaurant, like the tardis expands into this awesome bodega like shop with a kitchen and a glass wall of delicious pastries. For this first go around I got the sopes with chicken and they were really good! I wasn't expecting three in the to go box so I had leftovers. I also picked up some pastries. A single concha was more than enough lol. My bari friends: know that the serving sizes are big for us! So be prepared to take some stuff home. Service is what you would expect in a Hispanic bodega. If you don't speak Spanish then maybe order ahead. But if you aren't afraid then pop your head in, they were super friendly and helped me order. read more

Great tacos, no nonsense, friendly folks. Been there 4 times, always tacos, always way above average. They've expanded. For good reason!!

Not great Mexican food. Meat lacked flavor. Salsas were terrible for the tacos. Enchiladas had no cheese. Service was slow. Figuring out where to order and pick up food was chaotic. Market selection was fine. Dessert was terrible too. Ordered Flan, it was also terrible. Coming from Southern California, hands down worst Mexican food I've had in 20 years. Go to Antijitos in Dunedin or Las Californias in Oldsmar. Far better. read more

I went for the first time to try there tacos and in my opinion they are over priced. $4.50 ea. I ordered 6, do the math. Since they have a meat market, I purchased 1.5 lbs of meat, cilantro, 16 tortillas and made them at home the next day for less than $20 bucks. Don Panco won't get me again. read more

Molcohete - I had this every time I travelled to Mexico it haven't found the authentic in the US until now. We had more than one meal out of it and it was amazing! What a happy find. Reasonable prices, too. We will be back. read more

Don Pancho Villa - The sauces are decent. Not too spicy - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

As a gringo, best tamales iI have ever had! The only ones I have ever had, but my Venezuelan friend says same thing so take her word. I speak a little Spanish so fun to practice when asking a question. Judging by their facial expressions, they have no idea what I am asking., so just say gracias and go on my way. See some interesting stuff walking around cool Latin Market. read more

This is a market with a restaurant inside. Piñatas overhead and surrounded by walls of soda you can sit in a booth or at a table with chairs. The waitstaff is very friendly. The food is authentic and delicious . The Molcajete can easily feed two people and is delicious. The tortillas definitely taste home made as well. You can order a 32oz beer and a frosty mug with the rim covered in Tajin for that authentic hot day reliever. And the tres leches cakes when you walk in the front door are salvation worthy. (Restaurant in the back left of market. Butcher in back right.) read more

I had a chicken burrito nothing else and it cost $9.95! With a tax and tip $11.62 - nothing spectacular. Personally i think that is too high price for one single item and they don't have the prices on the menu anymore. Things have changed there. read more

Wow. Amazing Mexican food, very friendly staff, and friendly customers. This is at the end of a strip mall and is part mexican market and part restaurant. In my experience, in the United States, those serve the best food. They serve beer but not liquor, so no margaritas, which is disappointing because I bet they would make an awesome one. I had the garlic shrimp, which was fantastic. Very flavorful and cooked to perfection. My wife had the chimichunga. I know, gringo food. However, it was the best Chimichunga we have ever had. Incredible flavor along with a huge portion. The corn tortillas are made fresh and you can taste it. Just fantastic. Friendly people hanging out. I wish it wasn't the last day of my trip, so I could head back. read more

Don Pancho Villa - Chimichunga - Mexican Near Me - Clearwater, Florida

Best mexican food in Pinellas County. When you walk in youre going to wonder where the resturant is. You have to take a left past the counter and then take a right towards the back. Thats when youll see the tables. Grab a seat and get transported into Mexico! It gets really busy during peak times so you may have to wait a few minutes for a table. You know its good mexican food when 95% of the clientel are mexican. Not only do they have a great restaurant but its also a store with all kinds of mexican snacks and drinks. Service is always really good. Their fruit drinks are authentic and super tasty. If you want real authentic mexican food at a good price this is the place read more

Don Pancho Villa is a great little find if you are in the Clearwater, Florida area and craving some Mexican food. Don Pancho Villa is the epitome of a hidden gem, tucked within a market. The staff at Don Pancho Villa are friendly and professional and the food is definitely good. Don Pancho Villa is nothing fancy, but I have always maintained that the best Mexican food comes not from fancy, high-end establishments, but rather the best Mexican food comes from these little, mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Don Pancho Villa has a menu that offers many of the items you will find on the menu at countless Mexican restaurants and there is a definite reason that these items are so beloved and popular. The tacos here are definitely good and they are at a definitely good price point. I also considered going with a burrito, maybe next time. All in all, Don Pancho Villa is a great choice for Mexican food and I would definitely recommend here. read more

Great late night tacos and service. It's inside a Mexican grocery store and no one speaks english . So primarily its not for gringos ,if you show up there dont be acting like jabroni! If you enjoy legit fast mexican this place is for you music and all . Then pick up some quality bimbo deserts . read more

Let me start by saying I know my Mexican food and this place is one the best in the area. In case you did not know. The restaurant that used to be in the market is now next door in a new location that has been open for about 6 months. Love their food and friendly service! Must try - the mains dishes are very authentic and so good, any of the tacos, top notch and the steak quesadilla is amazing. I am not usually a fan of the quesadilla but a friend ordered it and it is so good. Try this place next time you want Mexican and you will not be disappointed. Also, they offer their meat, such as carnitas by the pound, so SUPER BOWL TACOS, OH MY, DEFINITELY!!! read more

Super tasty! Legit Mexican food as well as a market to go with it. There is a sit down area, very safe and clean, but not where I would go on a regular basis to sit. More takeaway for me. read more

Horrible service. Like almost comically bad service. The Carne Asada was overcooked and essentially in edible. In a very calm, relaxed way I tried to explain that to the server and she could absolutely care less. I asked her for replacement and she flat out said no we don't do that. If you don't like it, we can just take the plate away and you can order something else. But of course I would then be paying for two meals. We just paid up our bill right then and left. read more
