On a cross country road trip with my new wife and we love great Mexican food! Panchos was above good, it was delicious! From the moment we walked in, we knew it was going to be a great time!! Great service, quick service, and smiles!! We got some margaritas and they were very tasty! Fried jalapeños = very good Flour taqueria= unbeleivable Allen=the man! Recommend!!! read more

Food was good, but service was horrible!! No napkins, no cutlery, no refill requests on drinks, no takeout boxes! No tip!! Had to get our own stuff from a cart in the room!! read more

After being told by the owner of La Flor de Mexico we can't park our 26' motor home in her parking lot. I said thank you and drove north to Pancho's Lucky for us good parking and good Mexican food Came in to Panchos and was greeted by a very nice young lady. She then showed us to our table. Our server was very helpful. We had the best Mexican food. The service was fast and as I said the food was the best. Pancho's was packed with family's and two large groups and we still felt as if we where the only ones in Pancho's. Thank You read more

My accountant showed me my stack of Panchos receipts and frankly, I'm not even sorry. The lunch menu can't be beat for taste and value. The salsa is the best in town. The staff knows us and has our order down. Going in there is like going to see family. The other places in town can't complete. It's exceptional. read more

Decent restaurant... very friendly service. Went there for lunch and had carnitas enchiladas with green sauce and shrimp with pineapple and peppers... high recommend on that last dish. Salsa was good. read more

From the Cuervo gold margarita to the delicious dinner, this was a home Ron for us! Hubby got chili rellano and I had tamale and enchilada. Chips were delish and we needed a second bowl. Everything was hot and as ordered, tamale was especially good with very lean shredded meat. Yumm read more

Cannot praise Pancho's enough. The food was excellent. The Service was great. They have. They have an outdoor patio that is covered and heated where they welcome dogs with a bowl of water. All that and they food is reasonably priced. read more

I haven't been to a lot of authentic Mexican restaurants to compare to, but the food here was very enjoyable! The service was wonderful! You got chips and salsa to hold you over, which I almost filled up on! I got 2 tacos which came with beans and rice. I got 1 taco with shredded beef and the second with pork, and they both had cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce. They were delicious....I enjoyed the shredded beef the most, but I would get the pork again as well! The beans didn't look pretty, but they were sure tasty! The rice was a little bland, but still yummy. The rice being bland actually didn't bother me because I most combined it with my beans when I ate it. I would go back if I am every out this way again! read more

Just had lunch at Pancho's again and again, the food was great. The wife likes the veggie burrito, which is filled with mushrooms, rice and lots of veggies, of course. I've tried their burritos, tacos and chimichanga and they're all really tasty, but I'm hooked on something that's not even on the menu. Ask for the tortilla soup. It's REALLY good. read more

8-31-14 I travel a lot looking for the different variations of Classic Mexican food We stopped by Panchos seeking a fresh well cooked meal. I ordered the prawns and scallops over rice and my wife had the combo beef enchilada and chili rellano My prawns and scallops were cooked perfectly and the quality of the ingredients was outstanding. Everything FRESH MADE. Tortillas, chips, salsa all home made and very good. My wife's food was very flavorful and a perfectly cooked. chili rellano , nice a crispy on the outside and loaded with cheese on the inside. Enchilada was loaded with beef and basted in a great sauce. Beans are homemade NOT CANNED and very flavorful. A lot of hard work goes into the preparation of the food and it is all served by a very pleasant wait staff. The fried ice cream was the crowning glory to top off this very pleasant experience. Very reasonably priced Portion size was more than I needed We will defanantly be coming back soon. read more

Pancho's - Prawns and Scallops done very well. Don't forget the fried ice cream. Well done Panchos. - Mexican Near Me - Brookings, Oregon

Great lunch, quickly served with good staff. Great enchiladas and fish tacos. Always eat Mexican here while in brookings.

Stopped here during my trip, wasn't certain what to expect. As Oregon isn't known for their Mexican food. Pleasant surprise, it was very good! read more

Excellent place to stop for great food and margaritas after a day of traveling. Super friendly staff make the dining experience very pleasurable. Sandy is one of the best waitresses! read more

Went to Pancho's for the first time Friday 6/23/17, on recommendations of locals. Probably for the last time as well. Again, this was a Friday night, but the staffing seemed unprepared for even a slow night. Poor service is the main reason for a 2 star ranking. My party of two ended up joining three other couples, as we discovered we were camped at the same park. Received the impression the management and staff were unhappy that we didn't call ahead for reservations. Foods were prepared in an adequate, but unremarkable style, however several repeated requests for something in particular, went unheeded. Not really working in your favor when someone requests whole beans instead of refried, then when your plate is presented with refried, you merely take the refried beans off and return the remainder to the table. Then take 10 minutes and 2 more requests for the whole beans! And as another review stated, if you don't remember the chips and salsa, (when they did furnish) it's just not an experience you'll want to repeat anytime soon. read more

Food is always good. Good salsa. Good wait staff. A must do, if driving through brookings. Our favorite Mexican place on that part of the coast. And the food is very fast as well. read more

I have been craving Mexican food lately, especially taco truck tacos. We stopped in for a quick lunch on Thursday, I had the fish tacos, grilled to perfection white fish, lots of fresh lettuce and tomatoes and an excellent Mexican ranch dressing. Yum! Ex BF had their new green pork salad loaded with flavorful pork, fresh vegs, and real pieces of avocado. Their salsa is warm and fresh and home made. Victor our server who is also the manager brought mild salsa for the toddler with out us asking, cool to have the little one get her own salsa. Good grill cheese sandwich and they let us substitute Mexican rice for the french fries. They have a good variety on their lunch menu with items under $5. read more

The food was ok but just ok...the service was horrible I don't know what was wrong with the older woman and the busser girls attitude towards me but they made the whole dining experience uncomfortable..As I always do I asked for spicer salsa I was wondering why the older lady was kinda smirking when she dropped it off at the table...ill tell you why its because they dumped a s*it ton of habanero sauce in their salsa and gave it to me sarcastically My husband was victim of it thanks...He has stomach problems as it is ....but you didn't get the last laugh I did because your plan to burn me literally didn't work because I drink habanero for fun haha to you I liked it!!!but what a nasty thing to do you could've really made some one sick that way!!! I don't think ill be returning just because of the service not even to the bar which I had enjoyed so many times before. read more

Went here last week and it was super slow, we were the only ones there. Went to the bathroom and there was blood all over the sink. When I went back for salsa and chips, there was a long hair on my husbands chip full of salsa. Not to mention the prices are now higher then Celito Lindo, and not as fast or authentic, not to mention at Celito Mindi, you can watch them cook your food. read more

We were recommended by a local, and what a great recommendation! If you are looking for obnoxious service and over-the-top decor that you'll pay for on the bill, go someplace else. What you'll find here is great service, with a really nice style, a casual vibe, and really good food. I had a Pancho's Enchilada and my husband had fajitas. We were both really happy. The food is flavorful and portions are (too) generous. Prices were very reasonable. Next time we'll sit at the bar. It looked like lots of great characters swing by!. read more

Sanitized, Americanized "Mexican" food. Looks like Disneyland, tastes like nothing. Bland, uninspired, tasteless. The staff however is very nice, and the restaurant is clean. If you want real Mexican food, this isn't it. If you want a margarita and pretend Mexican, then you could do worse. read more

Love this place! Super yummy food and the service is terrific! Highly recommend this place!

Brookings has no shortage of Mexican restaurants, and I've always found them average to just below. But Pancho's makes a great margarita, and their grilled fish salad is one of my favorite dishes at any restaurant in town. Would this be a four-star establishment in a bigger city? Maybe not. But if you're looking for the best Mexican in town, this is the spot. read more

I had the carne asada burrito here and it was AMAZING, one of the best burritos I have ever had! Highly recommend.

We went to Poncho's last evening. My husband & I had been there a few years ago & werent thrilled that our friends had chozen this restaurant. HOWEVER we were in for a wonderful treat. The menu had the regular Mexican cuisine choices along with some specialties. My husband opted for a combo plate which he rated 4 out of 5. Three of us had the Shrimp Lover's burrito and rated it 5 out of 5. It was very busy...to the hectic point, but our waitress, Cathy was attentive and explained that 2 large groups had changed seating arrangements twice. Even with the confusion, our food arrived within a decent time. Thanks to the good taste and quality of our food and our friendly waitress, we had a lovely evening and will definately return. read more

It was good to return to the restaurant formerly known as Rubio's (since the 1970's). Pancho's seems to have kept almost everything as it was, which is good! The service was great. The food, while, its own brand of Mexican, is also quite good. I like the chili relleno, enchilada and taco combo which has held the same price since forever. The salsa had changed slightly, but when I asked for a hotter offering, I was VERY pleased with the habanero salsa. The only aspect I would like to see changed would be the taco shells, but it's Brookings and I am happy it continues to be there! read more

Both the food and the customer service here is top notch. My wife and I eat here every time we pass through the Southern Oregon Coast. The fish tacos are excellent as are the cheese enchiladas. Super good, highly recommended! read more

The wife and I stopped in last night. I had the prawn lovers burrito and she had the chefs burrito. We split a plate of nachos. Delicious, everything was freshly made. You do get some chips and salsa, but spring for the $5 nachos, you won't be disappointed. read more

We come here often. Food is good, staff friendly & service is usually fast. Food quality has been consistent with each visit. Prices are good. Atmosphere is nice & colorful. read more

Good food and fast service. An enjoyable stop to get food during my Oregon drive.

Great happy hour. Careful, the margarita will give you a brain freeze! Good enchiladas. Great fish tacos and carne asada. Delicious chicken taco salad. Enough food for leftovers. read more

The food was nothing to write home about but the service was terrible. When I asked if there was a dinner special the waitress randomly points to an item in my open menu & say ' umm how about that one'. "No" would have been the honest answer. The chips & salsa were stale & bland, so disappointing. When our food did finally come, we had no silverware. She brought us silverware & *1* paper napkin. We did not see her again until she brought the check. We will not be returning. There are other places with better food & service that actually want to earn our money. read more

Just had dinner at Panchos on 9/27/2015, just want to fore warn any future diners. They lost over 7 of their staff today at once. The food and service was the worst we have ever experienced. It took over 30 minutes for the waitress to even take our order and she got my wife's order wrong after all that. The busboy was more help than our waitress ever was and we tipped him accordingly. read more

I ate at Poncho's for the first time this week. The food tasted alright but I also got food poisoning from it. I will never eat here again. read more

Very very very good. I've now eaten there 4 times in 3 weeks. The food was and is so tasty and the staff is wonderful. I agree with the first reviewer the Chili Rellenos are terrific. The prices are GREAT. Lunch is a really good deal. Like for Chili Relleno, rice, beans, ice tea it was $6.05. They do have a full bar and when I have had dinner I have had their margaritas that are very tasty. Its right on the 101 so if you are traveling north it is easy to spot. The parking lot is always full so they must be very good according to the locals as well.... read more

Solid mexican food with great prices. We were there with 8 people, everyone got something a little different and everything came out pretty good. Nothing super crazy, but good quality no frills food at great prices. Our tab for 8 of us, including a few drinks was under $90, and I would like to see you be able to go to most places for similar quality food and spend that little. read more

They have good food but don't always get your order right. Especially if your going through the to go drive through. In my opinion it's the best in Brookings so I will keep going back. Shredded beef burrito is the best!!! read more

The two of us went on a Sunday for early dinner at 4p. The service was very very slow. 20 min to get chips and water, another 12 min wait for our order to be taken. During that time, a gentleman that had ordered ahead received his food and the whole order was wrong (and he got rather upset). 52 min after arriving, we got our food. Food was hot and delicious, so I'll give them 3 stars, but we will not go back or even bother calling in an order. read more

Great staff, great fajitas, awesome margarita :) reasonably priced and in a great area! read more

Pancho's - Mexican Near Me - Brookings, Oregon

I love Pancho's! I know the family that owns the restaurant and they good a really good job overall. The service is always great and the staff is super friendly. This is usually my go to spot when I go out to eat in Brookings. They have bar seating and outdoor seating as well which is always convenient. If you're looking for a place to get the night started or to grab dinner I'd definitely recommend Pancho's. Their lunch deals are also phenomenal. I usually am pretty simple when it comes to Mexican food. I like to get a hard shell chicken taco, chicken enchilada and rice and beans. You can get that during lunch for about $5! read more

Uhm, it's sort of thoroughly average Mexican fare. Makes me miss Torero's, which was still open the last time I had been in Brookings. All things said, this place is not as good, the portions are huge and the staff was nice enough, but the food was just tasteless, and worst of all, there was no hot sauce on the table.... I generally prefer food much hotter than average, so I know that for American tastes Mexican will get watered down to below what I like, but there were no options for spiciness, and no hot sauce bottles on the tables, so there was nothing to be done to bring it back to a pleasant level of taste, which means that all the service and portion size in the world cannot redeem the feeling of averageness in the restaurant. read more
