The birria chilaquiles were 10/10 really flavorful and well done. I asked for a side of spicier salsa, which was a good addition. My husband liked them too. The chicken and cheese pupusas were also a 10/10--fresh and larger than expected. The horchata was good, not overly cinnamon-heavy. Service was attentive without being over the top, and the restaurant was clean with a nice, laid-back vibe. We will be back soon! read more

Honestamente fue una experiencia desagradable ir a comer a este restaurante,servicio deja mucho que desear,meseras muy poco amables y nunca regresaron a checar si todo estaba bien,café de baja calidad y ya se sentía que estaba de varias horas en la cafetera,sin crema para café de sabores para ofrecer al cliente,comida insípida y platillo sin buena presentación! No regresamos a comer ahí,antes era uno de mis lugares favoritos! read more

Delicious Salvadorean dishes can be found here. I had the Carne Guisada off of the lunch menu. It is a beef stew with potatoes and carrots, served with rice. I ordered the Salvadorean homemade tortillas to go with the meal. These were made fresh and thicker than the usual corn tortillas. The beef stew was very much like what can be made at home and was very delicious. The beef was flavorful and tender. I also ordered a Queso Con Loroco Pupusa to try as well. This was generously sized and came with the curtido and a tomato salsa. There was plenty of loroco in the pupusa as well. The service was efficient and friendly. The meal took a few more minutes to be served as I had a couple of items that took a little more time to make. The dining room was comfortable and lighted well. There is definitely a return trip to try the other items on the menu. read more

Panchos....they started us off with chips and salsa on the table...Goodness ..that's what this amazing Salvadoran food was! First time for me and I loved it so much! I had beautifully cooked plantains (crema to dip in), a squash and cheese pupusa ..tried a garlic and cheese pupusa too...(served with a side of red sayer and cabbage slaw to put on top) DELICIOUS! We also had a huge bowl of Menudo (with all the herbs, onion, lime and fresh corn tortillas) a mango mimosa that was yummy. Great atmosphere..friendly servers, nice cozy booth ..brightly decorated. read more

I hadn't been here since 2017 and it's definitely changed! The inside is completely different from what I remember. It's bright and beautiful. The booths are comfortable. It's a pricey place so be ready for the bill in advance. We had expected mariachi band to be playing but they let us know they haven't it since Covid. I would come back again if they did! My best friend and I enjoyed each other's company, and celebrated her birthday. We each ordered a flight $30 each, the drink prices were not listed. We had so much food! We ordered the molcajete and it was delicious. I am allergic to shellfish so they were able to put it on the side for my friend to enjoy. The rice and beans were good and the salsa in the middle was good as well. I don't think I'm a fan of cactus but the chicken and steak had great flavor. The serving side was pretty big but wow this was expensive trip. read more

Service is horrible. When the employees mess up your order and you call them on it, they start being rude and get disrespectful if you ask for a refund. I had two employees rolling their eyes, calling me a liar, saying that their mistake isn't a problem thwt can fix.The woman with the glasses that is supposedly in charge threw the receipt at me . Once the owner told her to stop being an AHole and give me my damn refund. Oh by the way be careful when ordering. The girls will ask if you want it with everything in it as if it's what is included in the order and then start adding stuff without telling you they are charging you for it. Save yourself the disappointment and go to McDonald's read more

Las pupusas en Panchos estaban deliciosas, con el sabor auténtico que estábamos buscando. Pero lo que realmente hizo la diferencia fue la mujer que nos atendió para nuestra orden para llevar. Fue increíblemente amable y servicial, nos explicó todo con paciencia y una gran actitud. Da gusto recibir un servicio así. Sin duda, vamos a regresar. read more

Food is average. Not bad, just OK. My pupusa revuelta could have been better; a bit salty. My hubby's menudo was tasty. Soda was expensive, $4. Service staff was friendly and they seems to check on us enough during our visit except at the end, couldn't get anyone to come to our table to give us the check. It was nice, but I would say it's a "one and done". I do have to say they had some pretty bomb music playing. read more

Absolute WORST customer service I have ever experienced in my life. The two girls in the front are rude af. Especially the one who claims to be the owners niece. They mess up your order and then talk shit to you for wanting a refund. This isn't the first time these girls have been absolute bitches. You end up having to call the manager of the other location who ends up having to call the owner to handle their employees. And for the prices they charge this is absolutely unacceptable behavior. WILL NOT RETURN. read more

I just can't deal with the attitude from servers and I feel because we don't speak Spanish they're rude as hell. The food could be better but what can you expect from Victorville smh they need to hire better staff and also clean the place up. read more

Yum yum yum. Ooooh so yummy. I would sing Pancho's praises if I could sing. Pancho's is a must go. It was a moment in an oasis within the desert. It is just so absolutely good. I went looking for fantastic restaurants on this long trip and ran across Pancho's. There was plenty of parking and upon entering I was immediately cheerily greeted. I went outside to an enclosed patio where I sat beneath a large umbrella and a round metal table. It was quite comfortable and the tables were spread out to be COVID compliant. My waitress was wonderful. She was warm and informative. I ordered a mango margarita with a tajin rim and the cojutepeque entree. Cojutepeque consisted of chorizo, red beans and rice, avocado, and sour cream. There's no description I can write to make you understand how magical this entree was despite sounding so simple. The chorizo had a crisp casing and seasoned soft meat inside. It spilled out when the casing was cut. The red beans and rice was not a typical red beans and rice. It was nothing like I have ever eaten - flavorful, solid mouth feel, seasoned amazingly, almost meaty tasting. It was just amazing. And putting the avocado and the rice and beans together it was a sensational delight on my tongue. It was absolutely grand. The mango margarita was delightful too. A little sweet but it was very good. I had a couple. The price point was very good. For the amount of delicious high quality food I was very pleased. It was delicious. read more

I went there because of the reviews of a shrimp burrito. And to be honest it was not what I expected. It was bland and with no flavor. 3 shrimps in it perhaps. They need to I prove this burrito. I did not like it. read more

Excellent, traditional food. Ordered tacos and surf n turf burrito. Meat is flavorful and juicy, kids loves the rice and beans. Really good salsa and kind service. We stopped for gas and dinner in Barstow and this restaurant was the only place we saw people smiling read more

The food is ok but this place uses some of the cheapest drink products. I've had to send my drinks back several times. The apple juice tastes like apple cider from the dollar store, the orange juice also tastes like its from the dollar store, the coffee also tastes cheap and bitter, the ensalada de fruta drink has a diet aftertaste like sweet n low. We went yesterday again, and the service was horrible. We sat for 15 minutes without menus or any acknowledgment, even after we walked by the register and they told us to sit wherever we wanted. I had to get up to ask for menus, I had to get up to ask for more coffee, I had to get up to ask for the bill, I had to get up to ask for to go containers. Just no attention to our table at all unless I physically went to call them. This was Friday morning, and they had 3-4 tables at most, including ours, so it was ridiculous. We left no tip. read more

My wife and I visited Panchos on a Friday afternoon after it was recommended by some friends. We were sadly disappointed immediately and should have gone to McDonald's instead. We sat down and had to flag down a server to get menus. We then had our order taken and the service of food was slow. There were 10 flies buzzing around the window which indicates the place is probably not clean. The taquitos de res tasted like they were fried in old oil. We ordered a side of rice and it tasted bland. I was amazed they charge $4 for a side of crappy rice. The fast food taco joints serve better food that this place. They definitely need to clean up the place, kill the flies and change the oil in their fryer. Taquitos are hard to screw up but Panchos found a great way to do so. Los Alazanes Mexican Food serves better food than this. read more

Love this place. It's very cute inside and I love to eat here with my family. The food is delicious but sometimes it's not as good as other days. The service is usually great when eating in or calling in an order. It's a very nice place read more

Came to the DMV and saw this place across the street, checked it out on Yelp while waiting. Came in at 9:30 am and when I opened the doors the aroma of "Café de olla" welcomed us in along with 2 smiling faces. We ordered 2 Pupusas revueltas , coffee & horchata as well all ON POINT!! So happy I decided to give this place a try read more

Quaint little spot. Good ambience. Love the simple elegant Christmas decorations. I called in another order of their Caldo De Res soup (2nd time) It is absolutely delicious and needed as I am getting over a bad cold. It features pork shoulder, a few carrot chunks, potatoes, zucchini and cabbage. Tasty and filling. I think it's a little overpriced for the container size. I paid 12.99 and although there was a nice amount of meat, it lacked enough of the other ingredients for two servings. (Ie there was only like one small 1/2 of corn on the cob, one chunk of carrot and 2 chunks of zucchini). I also tried two of their hard shell tacos one chicken and one beef oh my gosh... it's Taco Tuesday and they were so good that I didn't get a picture, I just ate them up;-) The gentleman on the phone who took my order was a rude smart Alec and told me to give him 30min. I gave them 40min and still had to wait, but when I got to the restaurant to pick up my food the young lady was very kind and that is the reason why they they get 4 stars. read more

I've been coming to Pancho's over 10 years, and unfortunately, I won't be returning. The food is really good. However, I don't appreciate them adding extra fees to my bill. I understand that if using a credit card, they add 3% processing fee. Yet, twice I paid with cash, and they added an Operations Fee. I was given the difference back, and the person stated this is only happening to you. REALLY! I wish they would just increase the menu prices instead. Dine here if you want - just check your bill before paying. And, no... they didn't inform the other guest about the operations fee. read more

Unfortunately, this didn't live up to my expectations. The food was good and most of the servers were friendly hence the two stars but I didn't get what I ordered and there was no attempt to rectify it. I ordered a classic meat burrito. It was supposed to come with rice and cilantro according to the menu. Instead I got a burrito with only meat and beans. When I asked about it not having rice, the waitress said it didn't come with rice. I asked if she was sure because I almost always order burritos with rice and check for that. She said it did not come with rice and offered to bring a side of rice. I was charged for the side of rice and when I double checked the menu on my way out, it definitely did say the classic meat burrito came with rice. So I didn't get what I ordered and was charged extra. My friend got the Chile relleno burrito and his came out perfect and was good. read more

What Pancho's lacks in ambience they make up for in quality food. If you're up for something besides just Mexican food, their blend of Salvadoran. Dishes is top-notch. Especially the pupusa's! read more

Pupusas were amazing.. literally everything else was horrid. It was such a great spot. What ever change they made they should go back to before the changes.. bread for my menudo was burnt. Menudo had minimal seasoning. Have y'all ever heard of salt ??? And really charging for a damn refill $2.50 each. Sad sad. Service was horrible la uvita didn't pay attention to our table.. kept walking by like if we were even there.. I highly don't recommend this place. read more

My review of Pancho's servers very friendly inviting everyone that came close spoke. The one to help me told me about the best dishes to try and some options as for my next visits. The environment was clean good smells of authentic Mexican cuisine. Decorated in authentic Mexican decor. My thoughts on my Pancho's burrito( no cilantro, guacamole and no beans), and chicken and pork tamales. Burrito is hugh it's good, tasty but dry need salsa or something wet, but baby take my word do not waste money on the tamales they are very disappointing not worth your money, they put potatoes, green beans and other vegetables to stuff the tamales and it was a string of meat too much MASA and it was too wet moist...But I'm totally disappointed they don't give chips and salsa with orders.. but overall I'll go back and try something different... tamales 1 out 10, burrito 7.5 out of 10... read more

Quite frankly the worst menudo I've ever tried. Ordered a take out order and was so disappointed.

Chilaquiles were on the very dry side, pupusas ok and the burrito was ok. As well the ambiance was good, clean place. The service unfortunately was lacking no greet upon arrival, not once were we asked if we were ok, or needed something. Also we ran out of salsa and drinks... probably will not be back read more

This is a very slow paced place for food. Waited 45 minutes for a couple of cold pupusas.

Everything I try here is amazing and I have brought many people to come to eat here. My family been come there for over 10 years love it

Food was alright, fries were over seasoned it took forever to get our food when we were the only ones here(i wonder why) half the workers were sitting in the corner the worker spit on my mom, takes forever for refills, it's really hot in there the bread brunt there's bugs. Also couldn't really hear the worker and he lowkey gave me attitude. Random thumbtacks on the ceiling that fell down on my food, big safety hazard. This place lowkey deserves a lawsuit cus i almost bit into the thumbtack but oh well. There's also holes in the seats like if you have money buy new seats. The michelada tasted like water downed tomato juice. The soda was also watered down or something, didn't taste anything like soda to be honest. read more

Great authentic Mexican food. This place is superb. It's a hidden gem. It's near the DMV. It's worth the search and drive. I go there often and the food is excellent. May I suggest the fajitas. The best around. The staff are always nice and courteous. They check with you often and are very prompt. They are the example of service with a smile. Try this place and you will be amazed at how good the food is. Many thanks to all at Panchos. from a loyal customer. DN read more
