★★★★★ 5.0 Ana Llapa · Jan 2026

Super cute restaurant, recommended to us by a local, and it did not disappoint. My husband wasn’t feeling his best that night, but we still enjoyed our visit. He felt his dish was a bit spicy, though that may have been because he wasn’t feeling well. I ordered a chicken dish and it was delicious, perfectly cooked, flavorful, and served in a generous portion. You’ll definitely leave full. I also had a margarita on the rocks, and it was perfectly made. The decor and ambience are beautiful, filled with well‑maintained live plants, and since we visited during the holidays, the Christmas decorations made it even more charming. The staff was outstanding. They were professional, friendly, and very attentive. When they noticed my husband wasn’t eating much, they even offered to bring him an ent

This place was surprisingly good. I had the chimichanga and it was quite delicious. The salsa that they bring is little spicy which I love. My niece had the Berea tacos and she enjoyed them. They give you plenty of food at the service was nice. I would recommend this place for a good birthday dinner there were a couple of parties going on and family having dinner so it's a good place for big groups. The only thing I don't like is the valet parking which is $10. It's right near the beach so that was awesome you can have dinner and then walk down to the beach.

★★★★★ 5.0 Scott Zip · Nov 2025

Love this place, we come here every time we are on travel and it never disappoints, even the staff has gotten to know us. Jalapeno margarita is great, the guac is awesome and the tacos are as authentic as sitting on a beach in Cabo. The interior is amazing, two levels with live trees and plants. Huge menu, as you can see my co workers were overwhelmed with all the potential goodness. Highly advise saving room for the dessert sopapillas

★★★★★ 5.0 Vincent C. Lascheid · Feb 2026

Pancho's is great. We go to the one here in Manhattan Beach and also the one on Centinela in Culver City. Both are great. This one is so cute. There is so much to look at inside. It is always clean and can get crowded. I don't know if they take reservations. This time we got food to go and all of it was great. What really stands out is their guacamole. It is thick and loaded with avocado and always fresh. Their tacos are wonderful and there is not a burrito you will not love--but I get the sour cream on the side. Their rice and beans are tasty and they make their own tortillas. To me, that is a big deal. They have a great happy hour. Their margaritas are so good--I order mine without salt, but you do you. The prices are fair for what you get. I think you will be happy here.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Izzy · Feb 2026

We had a pleasant experience overall. The staff was welcoming and genuinely kind, which made us feel comfortable right away. The atmosphere was nice and unique, giving the place its own special charm. The food tasted fresh and the ingredients were clearly high quality, though the flavors just weren’t quite to our liking. My only real issue was that my daughter’s order came out incorrect. Despite that, we appreciated the friendly service and the fresh preparation.
