My boyfriend and I decided to give this place a try one night after work…read more This restaurant is connected to Bodega 42, which is a Hispanic grocery store! They have so many different, foods, drinks, pastries, deli items, it's definitely worth exploring before or after dinner! There is free parking but the lot is not very big. You may need to park in the street (also free). Upon walking in, we were greeted by several employees! We opted to sit out on the patio, since it was a gorgeous night! After 10 minutes no one had come to the table... 15 minutes... still no one. No water, drinks or their complimentary chips. They weren't overly busy, so this didn't make sense to us. At minute 20 I got up to talk to a manger. The waitress saw me go up to the front and tried to wave me down to say "I got you." I'm sorry but 20 minutes in a restaurant that isn't packed is ridiculous. At the very least she could have brought water and said she would be with us soon, but she never acknowledged we were there. I spoke with the manager and noted that it had been 20 minutes with no one coming to our table. I told him i understood she had other tables but that we just hadn't even been acknowledged. He said "she doesn't have that many tables! Let's go!" He took our order on the spot! He brought us complimentary guacamole and horchata with our chips! That was a very nice gesture! I assured him we weren't out for freebies, we just wanted to order our food. He was very friendly and definitely took care of us! Our food came out very quickly and we were checked on multiple times. He definitely turned what was a very negative experience around! The vibes here are really great! The patio was so nice! It was well maintained and clean! The food: I got the pulpo (octopus) tacos! They had a tropical and buttery flavor to them! I opted to take the picked onion off mine but I'm sure that's tasty as well! The chips had a nice crisp and saltiness to them and the salad was one of the best complimentary ones we have tried! My boyfriend had the chicken fajitas and noted they were tasty with a solid portion. The horchata here is also pretty solid! Overall, this place is worth the try! Tip: don't get the dessert at the restaurant, grab it to go from the bodega! It's about $4-$5 cheaper!

The decor is so pretty. They have a great patio as well…read more We were seated quickly on the patio and our waitress checked in right away. We ordered the Queso - GET IT! It was delicious. You have an option of chips or tortillas. We asked for a sampling of the salsas. The green is mild, red is medium and they have avocado salsa which has some heat - it's not guac. We enjoyed them all. They have a great variety of choices on their menu. I went basic and ordered a chicken burrito - it's huge! You do have a variety of chicken to choose from. My Son ordered the Octopus and said it was really good and enjoyed the smoky flavor. It comes with green beans and they were good. Hubby ordered the flank steak, ordered it medium, it did come out medium rare, he didn't complain but he left a lot on the plate because of how rare it is. We usually speak up but he was full regardless. The service was great. The drinks were fun. I will definitely be back

Every single bite was heaven!! Not sure what they put in here but it's soooo good! The items with…read morethe birria were packed with meat! The burrito was very hefty, for me that is almost 4 meals. Loved that some entrees came with chips and guac. The spicy sauce that came with was very spicy so be careful but so delicious. The horchata was a bit disappointing, I've had it before but forgot what it was like, it just tasted like a sweet milk. No cinnamon taste. But it was still delicious. So easy to order at the kiosk. There are only a couple tables in the gas station if you want to eat in otherwise most people just take out. Few tables were set up outside too. The gas station is filled with drinks and snacks so it's easy to browse for extras while you wait for your food. It's a literal hole in the wall inside this gas station. I only wish the hours were better, whenever we get a craving for this it's always closed so we have to take advantage when they are open. Can't wait to try their other locations.

I really like the story that gets told about how this cookie-cutter gas station has a food counter…read morewith mind-blowing food. But that last part doesn't match my experience. I had so-so birria tacos (no consomme, single soft-corn tortilla) and so-so horchata (served in a sealed bag that looks like an IV pouch, actually kind of funny), along with a tasty and particularly juicy elote. My friend got the Asada Mulita and he quite enjoyed it. That seemed like a good deal for $9, and $4.90 per taco for what I got is okay. The ambiance absolutely does not rise above what you would expect from an unremarkable, utilitarian convenience store with a few tables that aren't routinely wiped down. You can order online (highly recommended) or from a screen near their covered-up window. Whenever a food place is clearly hiding its employees from its customers, I'm nervous that I will be ignored. But someone was constantly popping out and asking people what their names were, and telling them how many minutes they can expect to wait. (Waiting = standing next to the salty snacks shelves.) I see now that they have Al Pastor Chicken with Pineapple Pico and I definitely want to come back and try that. Maybe I'll raise my rating if I love it. Meanwhile, I'd recommend considering this at least for the experience, but order ahead and expect a 30-minute wait. Also note that they close at 7pm.

It was warm inside, didn't feel much AC in there. We had the carne asada torta on baked fresh daily torta bread. It was messy eat but it was good. Chile relleno was made fresh to order.

We also tried carne asada and steak tacos both very good. Overall good food but needed some more seasoning. Next visit will try the whole fried tilapia.

We ate here after church. I was tempted to get Tofurizo but it had onions and peppers added. I…read moreordered a Carnitas ( shredded pork) taco and beef steak taco. The tacos are street size and small. You get 2 for $7.30 per order. Other option for meat was chicken. I had some corn salsa, salsa, lettuce and sour cream on it. The meat portion was good so not skimpy. My husband had Carnitas burrito which was huge for $9.95. The reason for 4/5 is the steak was disappointing. Cut in small tiny pieces like diced onions. This made it seem tough and low quality. Also not medium rare, but medium well or well done. So I recommend not getting steak. They should have a Barbicoa or chorizo option. Thats why I like Qdoba better. Also Qdoba gives you free queso and guacamole. Here you are charged extra. Picture of said meals.

I ordered a burrito bowl and a burrito at 5:30PM on a Thursday. When I walked in there were 3…read moreemployees and no customers. The chicken and cheese containers were very near empty and it looked like the food was what was leftover from their lunch. I ordered anyway and hoped it would be more warm and fresh than it looked. I ordered double chicken on both meals and only asked for extra chicken after they put the normal 2 scoops for a single serving. When they added the extra chicken they added 1 small scoop, not even close to double. The cheese: they had to scape the bottom of the metal container and could barely even get 1 scoop for each meal. I asked for more and was provided another half scoop on each meal. Ordered sour cream on the side because I wasn't sure I wanted it in my food. CHECK OUT TIME: Charged for double chicken. Charged for sour cream on the side instead of in the meal. Charged for extra cheese. The guy at the register was rude and would only remove the extra cheese charge and said next time it will be extra $$. Extra money for cheese??? My Burrito was literally nothing but chicken, rice, cheese, and salsa. Never 1 single time have I had to ask for extra cheese at other Pancheros. Maybe fill your containers so you don't have to scrape for a scoop of cheese? The WORST part: Got home (3.5 miles away) and was eating 10 minutes after walking out of Pancheros door. Both of our meals were mostly cold. The rice wasn't even warm. The chicken wasn't cold, but wasn't warm either. Both meals were like eating it after it had been sitting for at least 30 minutes. I assume the rice and chicken were just sitting around for too long in Panchero's serving containers or they didn't have their warming station set correctly. Never have I had this problem before at other Pancheros, or Chipotle, or Qdoba. I won't be back to Apple Valley Pancheros.

Every now and then, the heater bins behind the counter look a little... shall we say... end-of-days? Like the food's been sitting there contemplating the meaning of life for a bit too long. But hey, we've never gotten sick. As for the restaurant itself--sometimes it gives off "needs a mop and maybe a motivational speech" vibes. And occasionally the staff looks a lottle (yes, that's a little but a LOT) unprofessional (colored hair and nose rings), but most of the time you can look right past these things because the food is good.
