    Tacos al carbon
    Sandra J.

    We have been coming here for years ! Knoxville has a lot of bad Mexican restaurants and this one stands out as being one of the best. First you can tell by their salsa ! It has flavor !!!! There is nothing on the menu that is not good

    Gavijota Fajitas
    Dylan S.

    One of the better Mexican restaurants in South Knoxville. Their salsa is pretty good. guac is meh, and the cheese dip is your classic runny Mexican style queso. The street style tacos are alway good, I usually go for steak or al pastor. The gavijota fajitas are really good, as is the molcajete. We've been a few times for lunch which is pretty standard menu wise, but prices pretty well. Their top shelf margaritas are always on point. Pro tip: tell them no ice in the drinking glasses bc the pitcher has too much.

    Classic chicken fajitas (on plate vs skillet) Just as good!

    Excellent service. Food is always high quality, hot, and plentiful. We always take a box home with us. The atmosphere is dim but cozy.

    This place is not authentic at all. The burrito had a piece of chicken in it. Would not go again.

    Had a decidedly average dinner here. The staff are all friendly and the service is good, but the food is nothing to write home about.

    We ate at Pancho's last Sunday. The food, services and prices were great. We ate outside and had a great time. We'll definitely go back.

    First, I thought I had reviewed them already-- so if I do two, that's why…read more I'm giving this 5 stars relating it to other SIMILAR places-- that is, Mexican restaurants within a grocery store--- i.e. more limited menu (although their's is pretty broad), not full bar-service (but they have beer), and not fancy. For what it is-- it is really scrumptious. I had a few tacos, a ceviche tostada and a beer. BIG lunch-- I took one taco home. All the items were really chock-ful of meat. The carnitas on that taco was way too much to be able to pick up the taco with it all inside. They had a good mix of onions and cilantro on them, although I'd have preferred to add my own (I LOVE cilantro). I wish it was nearer; I'd go back often.

    This restaurant is located in the back of a Mexican supermarket. It's not very big and if you're…read morecoming here during the week come before noon, a lot of construction workers come in here and fill the place up. The salsa and chips--- First bite tasted like tomato paste to me, very tangy and had a kick of spice. Chips were warm. No Guacamole!!!! What Mexican place has no guac? Chimichanga de pollo-- Shredded chicken with some onions, peppers and covered in cheese sauce. Fajitas mixta-- Steak was a little tough and chicken was very thin slices. Lacked some spices. More onions, green peppers and tomatoes than meat. It wasn't bad, but for our taste we have had better. The whole meal lacked spices. Would we recommend? Yes, give it a try, you might like it. Salsa is good but it's too tomato pastey for us.
