    Scrambled Eggs (4) - by themselves
    Erika H.

    So happy to have discovered this neighborhood joint. I've only gotten delivery but food has been delivered quickly, is fresh and hot, and nothing is missing. Delivery guy is super nice. It's cash only but i thought prices were reasonable esp compared to the prices on GrubHub etc. Favorites so far are the shrimp tacos, agua fresca, coffee, and vegetarian nachos (which has actual vegetables in it!). They have a daily soup, which is also delicious. Highly recommend. Thank you, Panchos!

    Chicken Burrito Bowl

    I love this place! The food is always so fresh and filling. I'm never disappointed. The guy who answers the phone is also very nice! I definitely recommend them.

    Lots of food just not that great! Panchos is an interesting Mexican food dive. When you walk in you will notice it is a tight spot with a few tables and pizza???? What pizza? I guess that goes with Mexican now a days. They offer breakfast food, mexican, and pizza. I ordered the enchiladas which I was told was their best item and boy was I disappointed. The dish came tortillas, pork, rice, beans, lettuce, tomato. The pork was extremely dry and not very flavorful and same thing with the rice and beans. Overall it was very bland. The one positive is that I was very hungry and they gave a lot of food. In short: - A lot of food - lacks flavor - not impressed

    Excellent Mexican food!!! Fell in love with their breakfast burrito and alambre with steak -- costed $21 even. Alambre came with 5 pieces of warm tortilla, and I asked for green salsa on the side which was super refreshing. Big portions as well. I cannot wait to go back and try other dishes!!! Here is the updated price list!

    The place is your typical NYC hole-in-the-wall. There are about two four-tops near the entrance and three two-seater high-tops further back near the kitchen/register. When you walk in you either have a seat at the table if you're eating in and they'll serve you or order at the counter if you're ordering to-go. I love the fact that they have an open kitchen. It allows you to see everything going on and even your food being made. They have a variety of menu items to choose from; e.g. tacos to pizza, but what they're really known for is their Mexican food. Their burritos are great and so are their salsas. Both the green and the their red salsas are really good, so I now always request one of each; and yes, both are nice and spicy. They used to deliver on Seamless, but for some reason I keep getting calls from them to say that Pancho's cannot process my order through them anymore so now I have to call my order in. I know, I know, it's not THAT big of a deal but I enjoy the convenience of online ordering. Hopefully they do that again soon. Also they do not have just chips and salsa but they have chips for their nachos and salsas, so unsure why they wouldn't just let me purchase it that way. Eh, oh well.

    Breakfast burrito: yummm
    Ileana M.

    $8 got us food for two! Split what ended up being a huge breakfast burrito and thought it was great. There's egg, rice, beans, and mozzarella inside and it's served with pico, radish, and two hot sauces on the side. The burrito wasn't out of this world, but it was cheap, filling, and good. Friendly staff, too! Just a great place for a quick grab/go breakfast, though there's a good amount of seating, too.

    Alambres with rice and beans

    If I lived near here this would be my go to hole in the wall. We had the alambres with rice and beans and chilequiles. They were light and simple but so satisfying. Didn't make me feel like a dumpster truck after which was very so great.

    Too loosely wrapped and fell apart within too seconds
    Judy C.

    Worst Mexican food I've had. Overpriced, almost $14 for a burrito. The burrito was to loosely wrapped and everything fell out when I tried to eat it(the fact that it was too big also meant you probably would have trouble taking a bite and still keep the whole thing intact). I ordered beef, but I discovered probably different kinds of meats in there, and I couldn't even tell what kinds of meat those were, some were brownish and some were white. Gross. The chips was very hard to chew and doused in oil and too greasy. Gross. To be avoided!!

    I think I might need a return visit to accurately rate this place, since I only tried a single menu item- for now it's a solid three stars. I walked in this past Saturday, hoping to find something delicious and capable of saving me from/soaking up my horrible hangover. Panchos is definitely what you would call a hole-in-the-wall establishment. There are only a few tables in the place, and no restroom for customers. :( That said, the two guys working the kitchen area are very friendly, and the service is pretty fast. Then again, I was the only person in there at the time, so maybe it's not always so speedy. I wasn't amazed by the food itself, but found myself in awe of the massive tortilla-wrapped food plated before me. Not only are the portions huge, but the prices are a literal godsend to anyone who is on a budget. They didn't charge any tax, so the burrito was $10 even, the size of my baby cousin, and served with free guacamole and salsa fresca! That's a serious bargain. If you are waiting hungrily for your next paycheck and only have a few dollars to spend until Friday, I want you to try Panchos spot. And now for the food... I ordered a chicken burrito which comes with: sour cream, lettuce, tomato, rice, beans and cheese. I asked for jalapenos and onions, and their hottest hot sauce. My jaw dropped when this Godzilla looking thing was presented to me across the counter, and I knew I'd never be able to finish, but I attempted to tackle that beast, anyway. I failed miserably, but left Panchos very full. The rice was pretty bland, but the beans were decent. Their hot sauce wasn't even remotely hot- fine. The burrito was a huge mess after a few bites, so I had to use a knife and fork. It was just an OK burrito, but nothing to write home about. Maybe I'll come back, but I'll skip the rice in my order next time. Note: they also have a breakfast menu, and pizza?

    This is a little hole in the wall neighborhood Mexican place. I came for breakfast on a Saturday and got a breakfast burrito. The guys working there were friendly and nice. The burrito was massive, so I had half and saved the rest for later. It was about $9 with a can of soda. The food isn't anything fancy, but it's good and hits the spot. I definitely want to come back and try the tacos sometime.

We had our usual list of spots in Midtown East, but this time we wanted something a little different. We ultimately landed on Mexican, however even then there were several spots to chose from. One of my colleagues found CdM, and since we had nothing to lose we decided to check it out. In terms of physical space at CdM, there is very little; this is actually a walk-up spot hence it is solely a takeout restaurant. The menu is pretty straightforward - lots of Mexican staples with a good variety to choose from. The burrito bowl looked good so I decided to go with that - I was given choice of protein (I chose pastor) and types of beans (I chose black). The bowl was really good - all the ingredients tasted fresh and they were generous with the portion. They added sour cream to the top of the bowl and it came with a side of salsa verde which I thought was a nice touch. We also ordered some bags of tortilla chips to share - these were my favorite kind as they were semi-thick and super crunchy. Overall, I had a solid experience at Cinco de Mayo. It definitely hit the Mexican craving spot and I would have no qualms returning for another meal.

I didn't see any but saw buckets for umbrellas. I opted not to leave it there since I didn't wanna forget or risk someone taking it. I took it upstairs with me. My friend had arrived and was seated. Apparently, they do offer sleeves because she got one. But the 3 people who were at the hostess booth failed to offer me one. The beautiful ambiance will get your attention immediately. It is a stunning space. The tableware was gorgeous as well. We waited for our last friend to arrive who was almost half an hour late before ordering (we thought she'd arrive sooner). Our server, Matias was gracious about it the whole time. What we ordered: Drinks: Passionfruit Margaritas & Mojito - we were happy with them. Tlayudas, Guacamole y Salsas - this was really good and a great option for the table to share. The homemade chips alone were excellent. Liked all the different dips. Guac could've used some cilantro and more acid/spice. Tán Ceviche - I loved this. Super fresh and great flavor. Could use a touch of acid. My entree was the Shrimp & Crab Enchiladas - This was pretty good. The sauce could've used some spice and some acid to cut through the richness. My friend ordered the Yellow Corn Soup as part of her meal and she did not like it. She said it was too sweet which I thought was strange. I tried a spoonful and I agreed with her. It needed a savory note and again, acid would've done wonders. Also, the crab was a bit fishy in this. She enjoyed her tamal though. I tried a touch of the sauce and it was delish. My other friend had the Quesabirria which she was also happy with. To sum up: Ambiance: 5/5 The space is undoubtedly gorgeous. Food: 4/5 Beautiful presentation on everything but each dish lacks an element or two to make it a home run. Staff: Wait staff 5/5. Downstairs staff (greeters/hostess) 4/5. Needs to be more on point like offering customers sleeves for umbrellas or pointing out the buckets to put them in. At some point through our entrees a group of 3 women were doing a 10-minute photo shoot by the stairway where our table was. Absolutely inappropriate behavior and a manager should've stopped it. Camera flashes all up in our faces while we're eating wasn't cool. Overall, still a great elevated Mexican cuisine option. The slight tweaks would make this a 5 star place for me. I'd return to try more things.

If you are someone who is looking at an aesthetic place, this is a top contender. Unfortunately, I would say this place is better looking than the food is good. The food was fine, appetizers were all fresh but lacked any real depth in flavor. I wasn't too thrilled with the bone marrow I had either (but the tortillas come in the cutest basket). Personally, if it wasn't for the drinks and the space, I cant say this place is worth it - you're not coming here for the food. Another little complaint I have is the women's restroom on the second floor - right by the door is a floor to ceiling mirror which I understand was included to make the space seem bigger, but my friends and I agreed that it is a little misleading - I kept wanting to walk into it thinking there was more space there and not wall. I would recommend maybe putting a decal on it to clearly show its mirror.
