    First time here, restaurant is clean and ordering at the counter was quick and easy. Menu is not overly crowded and seems like all the classics are on there. Ordered the chicken enchilada plate with red sauce. Sat at a booth, lots of room with mostly working folks taking their lunch break. Ambiance is a high 7, everything is clean and there is lots of room for bigger parties. My order came out quickly, delivered by a pleasant server and a "provécho" nod. Food was hot and the first bite of the enchiladas was a 10-star experience! What a killer, homemade, flavorful red sauce! The taste was unexpectedly stellar and the chicken/cheese accompaniment, with lettuce and tomatoes on the side, rendered me beyond content! I confess, this was my third straight day looking for a good place for enchiladas during my lunch break and I know now that this is the right place. The chicken enchilada portion size was huge, with a surprising amount of very good quality breast meat. There's a nice covered patio outside and more menu items for me to explore on my next visit, which are assured. I'll need to spread the word amongst my office co-workers and bring them along next time! Ps. Easy on the wallet!

    Food I has good taste and service is great. Carrot cake is delicious! Perfect place for a Mexican style meal.

    The food was amazing. I tried the tacos Pastor and Asada (fajita) and they were a 10/10. Came on thanksgiving night and they were open. Service was fast and friendly! Tacos were BOMB!! and fries were a 5/10, pretty average fries. Ambiance is very texmex and a couple of arcade games here. Im from kansas city and i definitely recommend this place.

    First off, one of the reviewers on here said they had a moldy burger. I'm sorry but not sure why anyone would believe them when they literally had a picture of a bite left. Like, really? Were you you trying to get a free meal and they wouldn't refund BC you ate 99% of your meal and you gave them a 1 star? Anyway...now on to my review. Wow! My Arlington friend recommended this place and am so glad we tried it! We stopped by after the Cowboys game on Sunday evening and it wasn't busy. It's a standard hole in the wall where you order at the front, they give you a number, than take a seat. Restaurant was clean. They had bussers and servers walking around. There are no drink refills since they have soda cans and water bottles. But they are only $1, cheaper than anywhere else. Posole- flavorful, hot 5* Barbacoa tacos - 4* not fatty, juicy and lots of meat to tortilla ratio (not sure what other reviewers were complaining about.) Al pastor - flavorful 5* Horchata - 3* I was excited someone said the best horchata vs other places but it was okay, just really sweet. French fries - 4* crunchy and hot, seasoning was nice This place is actually great. Food did take time coming out but we are not at a fast food restaurant so ‍. Don't be alarmed because I ordered in English and got my order correctly. I did repeat it a couple of times though. My friends ordered in Spanish and had zero complaints.

    No words for this place, this place was out of so many ingredients. The tortillas for the tacos are nothing closed to homemade and they are cold. The staff speaks Spanish and we ordered in Spanish but they still managed to get most of our order wrong. We came here because it is open 24 hours. I do not recommend this place to anyone!

    Pancho tacos never fails to disappoint. We always stop here before our drive back to San Antonio. You order in the front style of restaurant and sit, they bring out, you eat and head out. Very fast service which is super good since I was trying to beat the storm this last time going through Waco. Barbacoa is ALWAYS good and the menudo is a killer. I've had pozole as well and is good for hangovers, haha ! But seriously, I'm gonna have stop here every time I head back to San Antonio just cuz I know that last meal here keeps me coming by back

    Moldy bread. Burger was disgusting. Mediocre service.

The…read moreservice is always great from being acknowledged when entering to making sure you get everything you want. Our niece can to visit for a day and she agreed to join us to eat even though she says where she lives there is tons of Mexican restaurants. She was so impressed with the food, saying it the best Tex-Mex she's had. The place is fairly small with a separate bar area so the atmosphere is very easy to relax and talk while eating plus visit. Check this lace out, guaranteed you won't be disappointed!

    This Mexican hole in the wall appears tiny from the outside. The parking lot in this mini-mall was…read moresmall, but I didn't have any trouble finding a spot. The restaurant reveals itself to be larger once you're inside. It's a cozy dining experience and I liked the cluttered decor of Mexican tchotchkes and liquor bottles. The owners were very kind to reserve tables for our large group and arrange for us all to pay separately. I tried the cheese enchiladas and they were very filling - they came with Spanish rice and refried beans on the side. I was tempted by the taco salad... some fellow diners ordered it and they were serving size was enormous! Most dishes here seemed well suited to having enough leftovers for the next day.
