This week I had the urge to eat fish. The owner served us a Spanish Sea Bass. Absolutely delicious. White meat with vegetables and potatoes.

We had an amazing experience at Sancho. The staff and service was fabulous, we were a party of 8 celebrating one's 80th birthday, and everything was served efficiently and with style. The suckling pig dish was delicious, spectacular even! The presentation with which they brought it out and served it was a highlight. The musical accompaniment was wonderful, too, including the staff singing "Feliz Cumpleaños" to the birthday girl. Our family visiting from out of state were amazed, and the guest of honor thrilled. It wasn't a great time but read more

My hair stylist told me about this place about 2 years ago because I always went to KFC before cutting my hair. One day I gave Sancho a try and KFC has never seen me again! This place has good daily special, great prices and good quality and variety. Last week we came for the Thursday dinner with the violinist. The attentions were great (as always) and the food was excellent, I had the pork filet Mignon and my girlfriend the rabo encendido. The music wasn't my favorite because it was too fast for being at a restaurant, it felt more like a party music. I like coming here for lunch and also the Paella special on Mondays! read more

We went on a Friday night. The cochinillo was very good. They make a show of it. They turn off the lights they make an announcement. Someone from your party breaks the plate that they used to cut it with. The paella was also very good as were the appetizers like croquetas were also good. The deserts were also good. The ambience sucked. It was very, very loud as a group came in to do their Christmas party and took over most of the restaurant. They brought their own DJ. The house would not quiet their DJ. They had promised us they would. The staff was ineffective. Later when that group left they had a DJ with karaoke. The service was slow. I would've given this restaurant four stars except for the ambience which really should've knocked it down to two stars. read more

I lived a few minutes away from this restaurant for almost 30 years and never went to it. A few days ago I was looking for a place to take my mom for Mother's Day and I found this with very good reviews on Google and decided to give it a try. SERVICE: I didn't think that I needed a reservation but I suggest you make one. I'm not sure if it was because of Mother's Day but the place was packed. We got lucky that we only waited 5mins for a table. One of the waiters came to us waiting by the entrance and he quickly grabbed a table for us. The place had like 7 tables with 12+ ppl in each of them. It was insanely packed but our waiters were smiling, funny, professional, and moved pretty quick considering the amount of people there. Great service. FOOD: Delicious, delicious, delicious. It's rare to find chivo (goat) but they had it and it was tender and delicious. My husband ordered sangria and I had a sip of it and it was also very good. The food is Spanish so there's a lot of good food. ATMOSPHERE: Good stuff. So much fun! They had a singer and he was truly excellent. Then at some point they turned off ALL the lights and two waiters came out holding a huge tray with a whole pig on it and one of those firework thing that they always set up in the VIP areas of clubs when you order bottle service ? (Hopefully I'm making sense) Well they had that on the pig and they were bringing it to the middle of the restaurant. Everyone was clapping and making noise. The head waiter had a microphone and said that they would cut it like they did back then for the kings, he then grabbed a large plate and hit the pig in a few areas to cut it. Then he said "and to show you this is a real plate we'll brake it". He then slammed the plate on the ground and everyone went crazy cheering. There was so much excitement. It was full with many generations and everyone was enjoying the fun and food. It was great. Not sure if all this was just for Mother's Day but it's worth visiting. It's been around for more than 30 years and with good reason. read more

My parents and I went for happy hour and we were not disappointed! The ambiance was great. Our server, Nara, was very friendly. We had some warm bread, and shared the gambas al ajillo, the croquetas de bacalao and ham, a piece of tortilla, and the garbanzos fritos. Everything was delicious. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Estuve aquí el sábado y a pesar de que el ambiente era acogedor la comida no fue la mejor. La paella de mariscos estaba sin sabor y muy poco marisco para el costo del plato. El término de la carne no fue respetado pues pedimos específicamente que se cociera bien y si buscabas un veterinario todavía salvaban al animal. I was here on Saturday and although the atmosphere was cozy, the food was not the best. The seafood paella was tasteless and very little seafood for the cost of the dish. The term of the meat was not respected because we specifically asked that it be cooked well and if you looked for a veterinarian they still saved the animal. read more

The food was yummy. We had patatas bravas and they were good but I've had better and they didn't taste authentic. The churrasco though, was great. The French fries that came with them were literally drenched in oil and burnt. I didn't like it. But the service was good and the environment was good especially that we got to see a "show" of them they brought the pig that takes 4 hours to cook. It was a cool experience. They turn off the lights and start singing and cut the pig traditionally. It was cool. Other than that, just a standard Spanish restaurant. read more

I ordered the seafood Paella to go. It was excellent, full of Spanish taste. I ordered a bottle of Albariño (Santiago Ruiz), but it was overpriced! read more

We live nearby this restaurant, and we've been talking about trying it out for quite a long time ... and we finally did last night. Being a Monday night, it wasn't too busy with plenty of available tables, and we were sat fairly quickly. They have a large bar and a set up for live music, probably for weekends I would think. Our server was very friendly, and informed us of the specials of the day, which included 50% off the sangria. We loved the basket of bread they brought... It tasted like the crust of a wood-fired oven pizza! We both had the sangria and it was delicious. Considering it was not a busy night, our food did take a very long time to come out, but I'm guessing it was made fresh to order. I was very happy with my dish, the Zarzuela de Mariscos. Very tasty! Would like to come back another time with a larger group, and order of one of their Paellas. read more

1st of many visits. Food and service top notch. But the food!! You have to visit to understand the full experience.

Foods are very salty, and very hard to communicate with the server in English. Will not go there again

El restaurante no es barato en absoluto, sin embargo, le sirvieron a mi marido un "bistec" que básicamente parecía una galleta de galleta molida y le sirvieron a mi hija pescado congelado, lo cual el camarero no tuvo ningún problema en admitir. Nunca vuelvo a venir aquí, aunque me quede al lado de mi casa. The restaurant is not cheap whatsoever, yet they served my husband a "steak" that basically looked like a skillet cookie of breading and served my daughter frozen fish, which the waiter had no problem admitting to. Never coming here again, even if it is within a walking distance of my house. read more

Overpriced for the amount of food given I had the oxtail with moro rice and sweet plantains. The taste was good, but the portions of the oxtail was way too small. It was one big bone and one small bone read more

1st time trying Sancho and I was a bit disappointed. Ordered hot tapas to start out. Garbanzos fritos, croquetas, and a mix of fried shrimp, squid, and fish that had so much breading that you could not tell which was which. All 3 were definitely sub-par. We then ordered Paella with chorizo, pork, and chicken. The food took a long time, well over an hour. The taste was fine and the portions big. However, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. Felt is was quite overpriced as well. I will not be going back any time soon. read more

This place is ridiculous for the prices they charge. A quick search would have yielded much better places with character, better food and proper service. Don't bother, but if you already did, try Casa Juancho or El Rincon Asturiano for a proper Spanish experience. read more

First time dinning by a friend recommendation. When we came the restaurant was not busy and we hesitate to stay but then decided to give it a try. The Sangria Blanca was delicious, strong and sweet like it should. The appetizers were on point and the entre an absolute paradise. The meat was juicy and well seasoned, vegetables were actually fresh and so the plantain. Dessert with torta San Marcos and vanilla ice cream to finish the course. I have to admit I was impressed with the service and the food. Shout out to you guys!! We'll done read more

Amazing service!! Friday nights they live flamenco singer and dancer. It totally sets the Spanish ambiance. The food is authentic Spanish and you can't go wrong with anything you order. The red sangria is delicious and not sweet. I highly recommend making reservations to sit inside when there is live entertainment. They have a bar but without seating. You can order bottle of wines or pitchers of sangria. You can also bring your own bottle of wine and pay a small corkage fee. read more

We were looking for very good Spanish food and definitely it was the place. They have a very good 5J ham, an excellent cheese, and the wine doesn't stay behind. The service was really nice and the ambiance perfectly to share among family and friends. read more

We booked ahead for Mother's Day because hey, it's Mother's Day, we knew it would be PACKED. We arrive about 10 mins earlier, they said we had to wait because our table was not ready. Again, I get it, I'm early, it's Mother's Day. We waited, ONE HOUR, with reservations! They finally sit us, another 15-20 min wait to just get a drink order in. From our 8P reservation, we started eating around 10:15P-10:30P. All and all: FOOD is GREAT but you will wait and service is not great. read more

My son wanted to celebrate his Birthday at Sancho specifically because of The cochinillo. It did not disappoint. You need a reservation and It needs to be preordered with a deposit. They make a whole little show about it. It was very good. Nicely seasoned, juicy, very lean and the skin nice and crunchy. Grant you we bought for 6 six people and 8 ate of The cochinillo. I was a little disappointing in the portions of the sides: yuca, moros & plantains. I think they could been a little more splendid with the moros ( that's a cheap side). The rest of the party enjoyed other more Spanish dishes. Again disappointed in the portions. Their sides could be more plentiful especially for the prices - not cheap. Great place for a celebration. Live music. Friday Spanish dance. Good service. read more

Great service and nice ambiance. One of the few, REAL Spanish restaurants around. Made reservations for 6 for the cochinito and were sat down immediately. We shared the cochinito and sides between 6 of us and it was more than enough. Appetizers were also delicious, especially the croquetas. Sangria was yummy. Live music was nice. Would return. read more

Where do I start?! I have eaten here a couple times and have also planned an anniversary party for about 20-30 people, and all I can say is that the experience has always been phenomenal. The staff are highly attentive and helpful when it comes to recommendations in food and drinks. They have live music on the weekends, so it's very relaxing, specially for a family dinner. The food is delicious, and very authentic to the Spanish cuisine. They also have a great wine selection and homemade lemonade (kids will love). Servings are large, therefore 2 can easily share. For dessert I love the cafe Bombon, that's what I usually go for for in Spanish restaurants, and it didn't disappoint. We had the stuffed peppers, coquettes, tabla mixta, and serrano ham for appetizers. They have hand cut potatoes, and a great veggie mix side. Definitely a place to try when you're in the mood for tapas, wine, or just Spanish food. Enjoy! read more

10/10 recommend. The rabo encendido is delicious as well as the garbanzo frito. Will be coming back!

Came here for my mom's birthday with my family, she had heard great things however it didn't fully meet our expectations. My family got the paella and it was okay, the individual paella were supposed to come with maduros and they didn't come out until like 15 minutes after starting the meal. I got the churrasco, and I realize this isn't the best place for this but it was super alright, nothing special. The service was mediocre at best, our server seemed to not really udnerstand what we ordered and at the end we got the wrong check. The location is also not ideal for the type of restaurant since it seems misplaced where it is. Also we did see tiny German cockaroaches on the windows inside near where we were which didnt make the food very appealing especially for the price of the food... Overall 3 stars might be generous read more
