Pancho Villa Mexican Grill & Bakery

A must try if you are looking for *authentic* Mexican food! We stumbled upon it one afternoon and had a light dinner. Ordered a couple of tacos and the chicken tamales. Everything was made to order yet came out quickly. Lots of flavor, tasted fresh, and good portions. Servers were very nice and bathroom was clean.

Used to come here pretty often when I worked on spring street. The food has always been good. However this last time I went I ordered the barbacoa, which I’ve gotten a couple times. However this time I received more rice than meat. We were shocked at the small portion for $18 and asked about it. We were told by our waiter that even she was shocked but the cooks said that was the order size. It had never been this small previously and didn’t even feel like a meal. Very disappointing because I used to love this place, for the price I won’t be back due to having to buy more food to actually feel like I ate a meal and not just an appetizer.

Food tastes authentic, but prices are extremely high—$13 just for curtido and salsa. It’s disappointing to see such overcharging when local families just want a taste of home. Hope they enjoy those $13, never again will they get another dime from me or my family members. Each pupusa $5- ridiculous!

The best tacos I've had in a LONG time. The Barbacoa is the best, big fan of the birria tacos too. They also make pupusas which is so hard to find around here, they are AMAZING. Service is quick, the food is legit, 5 stars all around.

I heard wonderful things about Pancho villa. Sadly the tacos were underwhelming especially for 16 (4 dollars a taco ) + drink .. will definitely skip next time
