I was wowed. The parking lot was full and so I parked at a nearby business that had closed for the day. I was seated immediately. Everything was delicious. Although it was very busy, the members of the staff worked efficiently to keep things moving. I had the burrito river (the menu says it's half of the burrito grande). I noticed at a neighboring table that you can order fresh guacamole prepared at your table which adds to the overall atmosphere. It was a great experience. read more

Went here for a birthday late lunch. Table for 4 and got seated pretty quickly. The server was pretty nice and attentive- but she did forget to remove sour cream from one plate & then forgot to ring up & also bring over a non-alcoholic drink that was requested. However ! The guacamole made fresh at the table was AMAZING. but $15?! That's crazy. Prices were a little steep for the quality. The veggie fajitas were pretty good though. Could use a little less beans and more fresh veggies. They play fun little songs & seem to be quite liked by the locals in the area. read more

Saw this as we drove into the nearby hotel and decided this would be a better option than fast food for lunch. Wow! Such a good choice. I got the most delicious bowl of chicken soup I've had in years. Giant portion with huge chicks of chicken and fresh avocado. Even homemade tortilla chips on the side with the soup. Rice and veggies completed the bowl and I finished 90% of it! Really beautiful interior as well and the service was fast and friendly. Give the place a try! read more

To be honest, I wasn't a big fan of this restaurant. The service was good and fairly quick. However the food left some things to be desired. I wasn't a fan of the birria or Mexican rice. The chips and salsa was good. They also had jarritos so that made me happy. I probably won't come back here. read more

Well, it was great until we received our bill. We actually thought our bill was wrong because for $102 we had nachos, a burrito, one regular house margarita and two JUMBO margaritas. When we tasked for an explanation the bartender had to explain that the JUMBO house margaritas without any special tequila was $25 a margarita. The regular house margarita was $12. Asked the bartender how much a JUMBO margarita would be with a patrón or an upper shelf margarita and she said the same price. Is there a drink menu with pricing or even a list. We sure didn't receive it. I think if we would have been told the price we may have opted for something else. Lesson learned. I've lived in Chicago, San Francisco, Las Vegas, New York and I don't think I've ever paid $25 for a basic margarita, let alone pay for it twice. There is always a first and tonight was the night. The food was good, but this completely ruined our night. Very disappointed. read more

Whatever you do don't waste your time placing an online order because they won't know where it is. They made ours after we got there then brought out the wrong food then didn't have the wraps for the fajitas. Such a waste of time and effort for really mediocre food. Plaza Aztec is better. read more

Very average Mexican food, and average service. The fresh guacamole was the best part of the meal. I've never had a fajita with more onions and peppers than meat, but that was the case here, giant pieces of them with very little pieces of meat. Unfortunately I can't recommend this place. read more

The food was delicious, the service was top notch and the atmosphere was delightful. We will definitely be back.

Half pineapple stuffed with pineapple chunks. Shrimp, onions and peppers (Pina Rellena). Shrimp fajitas, shrimp tacos. Are all my fave items to order from this restaurant. Good service. Good decor and seating. Great location on Midlothian! read more

I gave it 3 stars because the ambience, music, service is all great. Food is overpriced for their quantity compared to other similar restaurants. Food has decent flavors, nothing out of the ordinary though, but cooked well. read more

Fun and authentic looking! I have eaten ALOT of Mexican food in my life. All different kinds and this place is at the top of my list! I was really impressed with how good the food was so far from the border but I would eat here again in a second! Everything came out hot, large portions and great service! My kids totally loved it! read more

Service was amazing. We had two or three different people checking on us. I ordered Vegetarian B. The bean burrito was a 'smear' of beans. It was so flat and tasteless. The cheese enchilada was a plain cheese soft taco and the cheese quesadilla was dry, with tasteless tortillas. Now add a sweet tomato sauce on top and that's it folks. Not a good combo of flavors at all. Definitely would not recommend! Another person ordered the expensive flank steak and nopalitos. It was a small plate for the big price tag, but they enjoyed the flavors. I like to judge off a bean burrito (because if you can do that right, everything is good) and for that I would give this a 1 star review. read more

Ordered tacos (al pastor, carnitas and carne asada) loved the carnitas and carne asada the best. I must say they are not stingy with the meat... very fulfilling and seasoned. I tried the peach margarita and it was ok, maybe a little too sweet for me...definitely could've use a little more alcohol. My server was very friendly. She made sure I was good during my visit. Grabbed some fried ice cream to end the night. It was good (not the best I've had) but hard to get into the ice cream at first until it started to melt. The establishment was busy, average noise level with one exception. There was a guy on his phone but the problem was he had the person on speaker and it was loud and rude. I wish they would've asked him to take it off speaker out of respect for other guests but other than that it was a great experience. Decor was the typical wooden tables and booths. It seems they have two sides for seating and they also offer outdoor seating as well... once the weather warms up read more

My family has been coming to Los Panchos for over 12 years, when it was still Casa Grande. We LOVE this locally-owned restaurant and have gotten to know several of the owners/managers over the years. The food is always fantastic (I especially love the Quesadilla Panchita, Mushroom Quesadilla, and Enchiladas Ricas) and the service is wonderful. Prices are very reasonable! They are always happy to accommodate special requests and over the years have become increasingly careful with vegetarian items so we don't accidentally get a meat dish. Recently, we even catered Los Panchos for a milestone birthday in the family and they knocked it out of the park with attention to detail, care, and flavor. Our guests were thrilled and so were we. Los Panchos never disappoints and is absolutely a must-visit in the community. Don't miss it! read more

I'm not a real fan of Americanized Mexican. I've spent a great deal of time in MX and they just don't make burritos the size of your head smothered in cheese. However, if I want to dine hang with friends, sometimes I just have to do "Mexican". I called early in the day to make a reservation, on the patio, for 10-15 people. No problem! When we pulled into the parking lot, I was a little worried. It was PACKED! Seating a large crowd anywhere can be challenging and my first thought was that there was NO WAY we were going to be seated in a timely manner, but when we walked in, we were guided to a table by very happy hosts, as requested, on the patio. The menu is expansive. The photos look amazing. The prices are decent, not what I would consider expensive. Most main dishes are in the $11.99-$14.99 range. The waitress was was super friendly and efficient. She didn't want to, but she cheerfully agreed to do sepárate checks. The food came quickly and everyone was happy with their meals. At Los Panchos, you get A LOT for your money. The side dishes alone, splayed with gooey refried beans, rice and various accoutrements, were in fact, big as your head. A dish of Fajitas for 2 was obviously mislabeled because it will surely feed 5. I ordered Tacos Al Pastor. This dish neither looked nor tasted anything like the traditional version, but it was delicious. The only thing that tasted Pastor-like was the pineapple chunks. I swear, the sauce had an Asian twist to it....I love Asian food, even in a Mexican restaurant. Bottom line, our experience was delightful and we will likely return. read more

The service was fast however the food was very bland, definitely in need of seasoning. The chicken wings were not appealing as they were hard. Only the freshly made guacamole was good. I don't think I'll be back again. read more

First time trying this place and we Ordered take out. I had the Pollo Fundido which was tasty. The children was cut up, which I didn't expect, but it was tasty. I liked the rice to. My wife had the steak burrito. To quote "that was some good shit". Delivery was prompt. Odd thing.. the on line ordering page was all in Spanish. We enjoyed the food enough to warrant going for a sit down meal. read more

The only Los Panchos in town that has Caldo de res (sopa de res). Also the only Mexican restaurant I've been where you'll be the minority if you're not Mexican. The food always taste delicious and fresh. I'm not expert in authenticity but I can tell flavors have no filters. The people here are very friendly. The hospitality is great. A place that is worth the trip for me. read more

Love the food and drinks here. The margaritas are a good size for a decent price and delish!! We got the enchiladas suizas and the burrito special and the portions were huge! The staff is friendly and efficient! Thank you for another wonderful experience! read more

We stopped by here to grab a quick bite to eat after a fundraising event. This place was packed on a Friday night. The parking lost was full and inside was wall to wall people. The server was quick, got us ordered and waiting pretty fast. The food that came out was good. My friends enjoyed their meals, I just had a drink. It wasnt the best though. I asked for a margarita and it was horrible. The salt was floating in the glass and made some of it taste salty and the drink tasted exactly like a sweet margarita mix - very much like a strawberry milkshake. I asked the server to replace it with one on the rocks to see if it was just a fluke, but it wasnt, the one on the rocks tasted the exact same way, so I just gave up and ate the complementary chips and salsa. If I ever go back I will stick to ordering food and leave the drinks alone. read more

Very disappointed in the service today ! You are going to sit there and nitpick when I ask you if there's gonna be sour cream and lettuce and charge me for both. And then when I go to leave, I ask you to take the remaining chips and salsa yet you won't add more salsa to it. But I can tell you one thing. This was my favorite Mexican restaurant, but I will never go back there again. If I could put zero up there, I would. read more

If you're a vegetarian, I would recommend not getting the Vegetarian fajitas. They cook it with the meat and I found chicken in mine. I was extremely sick to my stomach after realizing that they cook it together read more

I planned a surprise retirement party for my husband at this restaurant. I had approached several other Mexican restaurants in the area that flat out refused to accommodate a party of 25 people. I met with Oscar and he was not only very accommodating but kind and helpful. Everything was fantastic from the food to the staff, all the preparation they assisted with. It made this special day extra special. Thank you so much I appreciate all you did!! Highly recommend!!!! read more

A quite good Mexican restaurant in close proximity to Johnston Willis hospital.. the prices are reasonable and the dishes are all visually excellent. The fish tacos came with a thousand island dressing on them that I would ask to be held on future orders but other than that I would rate this a 5. All in all, we'll be back again. read more

Food and service were great. Group of 9, everyone was happy--you know how hard that is to make everyone happy?!? Great job!

Food was average, waitress was lazy and the bathrooms dirty. We won't be going back!

We've been coming here for years and have always been delighted with our experience but today sent it over the edge and I just have to say something! Melanie was sweet and intuitive and suggested something we would've never even known existed. The Molcajete Del Mar was absolutely lovely! read more

I miss this place so much. (We moved.) It's hands down the best Mexican food I've ever had, full stop. The price is awesome and the service is good, but dude, it's the food that brings you back here. It's almost addictive. This place just does it better than anywhere I've ever been. The steak is great, the tacos, the queso dip, get everything. read more

This restaurant so kindly accommodated our group of 28 for dinner. The staff were friendly, the food was delicious and I would definitely recommend this restaurant. I know it cannot always be easy to accommodate a large group but they did a great job! Good came out quick and hot! Thank you to Vivianne and Rosario who were very helpful! read more

The food was great. The service was great. We did initially get stale chips but I let him know they were stale and he quickly bought out a new basket. You can tell everything was fresh. The food was really good and one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to in a long time. The only thing I didn't like is the bill had a cash price and a card price. It was only about a $2 difference but it's the principal. read more
