    chilaquiles minus the chicken
    Andrea G.

    I'm a California white girl reviewing a restaurant in Mexico. Obviously, I'm not an expert on authenticity. What I can tell you is that the food and drinks were good. I'm pretty simple. I like a classic margarita on the rocks and I'm not going to complain if it's a little heavy on the alcohol. I had two margaritas and they were delicious. It was lunchtime, but I ordered some breakfast. I have a place back in the SF bay area where I eat chilaquiles all the time. It's my go-to weekend brunch plate. I decided to try them at Pancho's. I got them minus the chicken and they were delicious. My kids got chicken chimichangas. They're normally burrito boys, but they decided to try something different. They both loved them but didn't touch their rice or beans. They said they were very plain. I didn't try them so I can't comment on that. The restaurant itself was very clean and comfortable. The waiters were friendly and efficient. The prices were probably high for the area, but they were cheap compared to what I pay in the SF area. My chilaquiles were $6.50 and my margaritas were only $4 each. The place was packed and everyone was having a great time as far as I could see. The only thing I didn't love was the volume of the music. It was difficult to have a conversation without yelling across the table. When the guy on the keyboard took a break, it was much better.

    Always go to Pancho's when we're in Nuevo Progreso. Great food, drinks and entertainment.

    Food was great! Ambiance was great! Server was a little inattentive, not busy just chatting with friends and watching the music, but the food made up for it!

    Mmmmm the best Mexican food I have had in a while!!! I'm from the valley but since COVID and the danger zones I hadn't been back in a while. Coming here brought back so many childhood memories and a sweet taste of home. We walked in perfect timing to see and hear the mariachis. We were taken care of quickly and the food was the absolute best part. I brought my boyfriend and it was also his first time in Mexico. Couldn't have gotten a better quick trip to Mexico. We shopped for souvenirs and the restaurant was exactly in the store too. Easy access, great food, great music and felt safe from danger and COVID.

    Where do I start? Let me start with great customer service. They cater to the customer. Food is delicious and very inexpensive. Clean restaurant and very clean restrooms. Let me finish with great drinks and most importantly is that they don't water down their alcohol here. Oh and I forgot to mention the great music. Don't forget to tip the band and your waiter.

    Never been to Mexico so while'll on the edge of Texas why not- we crossed the bridge and pancho bar had the highest rate ( we didn't wanna venture too deep into Mexico!) the streets are filled with venues wanting to sell you dental plans and tees... we entered a mini-mart that was HUGE with gift and things and a little grocery attached to it, the restaurant was inside this store- as soon as we entered you can hear the music and people clapping and dancing... I'm vegan so not a lot of options but I did get the veggie lancho ( bread and guacamole basically) nothing too special- I ordered a piña colada ( at first I didn't think there was any Alcohol in it, until I ordered my second glass...) I was tipsy on the walk back over the bridge... be prepared to show proof of your US citizenship along with some questions ( my questions were more intense than my hubby maybe be cause she knew I was a little tipsy, I was expecting them to check my purse but they never did...) I didn't buy anything just food! Lol here's some snaps!

    You are missing out if you don't come here. Seafood soup was amazing! Honestly it reminded me of a mexican gumbo. The flavor is outstanding!! Flan was also great. Can not recommend this place more. Did I mention strong drinks and great music!

    Chips and Salsa

    South Padre Island Beach Trip Day 3: Spent the day in Nuevo Progreso Centro!! This restaurant is upstairs above a local market. They have live music and a dance floor as well as a huge wrap around balcony! The food was good, especially the chips and salsa. The nachos on the other hand were not much to brag about. Very friendly and clean place to eat while visiting!!
