Absolutely love this little Mexican spot. They've got a huge selection of tacos, enchiladas,…read morequesadillas, and pretty much everything I've tried has been amazing. I usually go for the steak tacos or the chicken quesadilla, and they're always bomb every single time. One of the best parts is the hot sauce bar -- we probably end up trying half the sauces every visit because they're all so good. The customer service is always friendly, and welcoming too. You can tell they really care about their customers and the food they put out. Definitely one of our favorite go-to Mexican restaurants!

The salsa bar was great- really enjoyed all the choices. Every employee we interacted with was great. It was super quiet but we were there at an odd time (late lunch/early dinner).

Wood booths with the El Jimador logo decorate each booth. The staff is attentive with numerous check-ins during the meal. Frequent water refills, extra salsa and chips and all around customer care make this dining experience a pleasant one. As for the food, the fajitas come in numerous combinations that include old favorites like steak and chicken, but also include creative combos like steak/chicken/bacon, which is one of my favorites. The fajitas, which I have had several times are excellent and flavorful. Fajitas are my favorite section of the menu. The other parts of the menu are less consistent. The tacos are good but inconsistent and lack flavor. Everything feels authentic and tasty. Overall I really like this restaurant.

Superb cocktails were his warm up. The food recs were the explosion, and man he was on point. Smoked wings, some of the best ever. Brisket tacos, fuhhgeddaboutit!!! Shaved steak panini put my wife and I over the top. We could barely speak as our mouths were perpetually full of our own and each other's meals. We communicated perfectly with pancake eyes, head nods, and eyebrow wiggles. Don't walk, run to Evolve. The only downer is that we don't have one closer, great job all!!!

The inside, outside, and bar are all seated on the waiting list. They sat the 2 of us at the bar and it was a fun experience. The bartender made great recommendations and was very knowledgeable about the menu. They have 8 draft beers on tap and a large cocktail menu. We started off with the crispy brussels and it was excellent. The balsamic honey reduction was a nice addition to the appetizer. We got two sandwiches (chimichurri steak press and brisket reuben) and both were very good and recommended by the bartender. I enjoyed the fries a little more than the chips for a side item. Definitely plan on coming back to this restaurant the next time I'm up in Clemson!

Definitely worth a visit if you're in Pendleton.

Several of us ordered them custom made. Everyone enjoyed them. Well prepared. The chips were crispy. They brought a warm bean dip with was great. They also have a salsa bar in the back with quite a variety of salsas to fit any taste... the spicy pineapple salsa was tops on my list. We had beer, wine, margaritas... across the four of us. Everyone liked what they got. The wine menu is basic, they have a bar so whatever you want is available, they had a nice selection of beer appropriate for the Mexican theme. We will definitely be coming back. Oh, we got there at 5 and were the second table occupied in the place. By 5:30 the place was full. So, on a Friday night be aware that the place is popular.

It was like dried ground beef, no cheese, no spices. The chili Relleno and the burrito was one had a wrap and one had a large pepper on the outside of the try tasteless beef . They tasted the same, both had dried dry tasteless ground beef and nothing else . I had to ask for hot sauce. I had the Le major and couldn't eat it ! Worst Mexican food I have had ever had -Service was lackluster - I barely got the menu and she a wanted to know if I wanted to order, no alcohol . Didn't even offer water . No condiments on the table to try to add flavor to the food. The waitress Never came back after ordering my beverage to see if I wanted cheese or salsa or hot sauce . Mary's grill on 183, California grill on Hwy 130 and Taco Riendo in Six mile are ten times better than pancho's in central . The meal was a feeble attempt at a Mexican restaurant, which won't be there long because of the "I don't give a damn attitude from kitchen to wait staff" for a few hours before. No one ever asked me if the food was alright . So yourself a favor and buy old El Paso taco mix because it's 19 x's better than Panchos in central !

We usually get a gravy boat size of queso at other restaurants I will say this is quite smaller for $6 we had to order a second order, but it was delicious and doesn't have peppers like most places which we liked. I got the El Burro Estrello wo onions it had green, yellow and red peppers and I got steak as the meat. It was very good. The sauce on this is amazing I highly recommend, I would def order it again it was so much food I'm so full. My husband got the pick 2 combo and got cheese enchiladas with rice and beans, he liked it and would order again. I can't tell you enough how good the salsa is here it's so good we ate like 3 bowls even my kids ate it and they won't anywhere else! Try it out it's a good place.
