Delicious food and great salsa. Had no problem with the service, polite and knowledgeable staff. Great environment super festive and clean. Take out was also smooth and quick. Only issue was no plastic forks or anything in to go bag. read more

Another phenomenal meal at senior Poncho's. I chose the classic- the chicken and steak fajitas with the chicken blackened, my boyfriend got the enchilada trio. We chose to spend the bar this time and had a great evening. There's a couple of comfortable booths in there which was great. Bar seats looked comfortable, padded. read more

Food was excellent but service sucked. Waitress ignored us completely while catering to the table next to us. We were in the process of moving so we were dressed very casually and she was tripping over herself to serve the table next to us because they looked like they had money. We actually had to get up and go inside to get our check because she never came back to see if we needed anything. Will definitely NOT be back. We are usually very generous tippers but barely left 15%, she didn't even deserve that much. I guess nobody taught her to not judge a book by its cover! read more

WOW WOW WOW WOWWWW. This birria quesadilla? *Chefs kiss*!!! I didn't even know about it walking in. I asked the waiter what he recommended from quesadilla and he said birria quesadilla. He said "it's not on the menu but we make it" so I said sure. I'll give it a shot. And thank goodness I did. This is delicious. My boyfriend got the el grande and he liked his food too! read more

The food is very good and the service is also. The staff are friendly and professional. I have two favorites, one being the rice bowl with shrimp. Their new addition is the Tijuana Swamp Soup. It's not just a bowl of soup but a meal. It has clams, shrimp, fish chunks, tiny potatoes and chorizo. The broth tops off the flavor. read more

I have several food allergies yet the waiter came up with options for me. He was great! The food was amazing. Watching everyone else's food go by smelled so good. The place was crowded and the staff kept up with everything. We came to hear OTRA the band and have been pleasantly impressed with the food and staff! read more

Stopped by later this afternoon, my wife and I sat at the bar for an early bite to eat and a drink. My wife chose traditional enchiladas and I just felt like a burger. Drinks were great, food was excellent along with the service. Andy the Owner came to check on us and actually made our drinks and took our order. Needless to say we had another fantastic meal at Ponchos. My Angus burger was Fantastic and so were the enchiladas. If you haven't been, stop by and give it a try. read more

Got Senor Pachos takeout for our work lunch and wow was it delicious! The individual over the phone taking our order was very kind and was patient with our large order for the office. I started with the empanadas which were crunchy on the outside and so flavorful on the inside with the meat being cooked to perfection. My main course was the rice bowl which contained spicy rice, which did have a kick but nothing that overwhelmed my taste buds from the other incredible flavors inside of the bowl. It included black beans, greens, pico de gallo, and sour cream, and I added grilled chicken for my protein. The ingredients tasted so fresh - I mean look at that avocado glowing! The portions were pretty generous too - I had leftovers for lunch the next day. I really enjoyed it and definenly went to stop in to eat inside of their restaurant soon! read more

We normally love eating at Senor Panchos when we are in town at our son's house so we made a reservation for tonight on the patio. Speedy service and friendly waiter but the two ground beef taco salads were very disappointing. They contained barely any meat. The fries our kids ordered were also very small orders. read more

Tried out Senior Pancho's for the first time and enjoyed our experience overall. Pros: Good Service - we were seated quickly on a busy night and food came out hot and in a reasonable amount of time Good Food - chicken chimichanga was my favorite. Friendly Staff - everyone was nice and friendly, even when we made a mess on our table with the salsa (oopsie) Excellent Margarita - had the dragonfruit margarita on special, best I've ever had Good Prices - I was pleasantly surprised with our total bill Cons: Very noisy atmosphere - if you're looking for quiet or reasonable noise level, don't go during a busy time Guacamole not made fresh to order - while the guac was good, it wasn't amazing. I like when they make it right in front of you and you have the option of spice level. This was not the case here. But overall, a good place to eat. Very family friendly and great value for your money. read more

Great food. Many choices and we often hit Mexican restaurants when in NYC and Senor Panchos can stand with them. My Wife lived in Southern California and is familiar with authentic Mexican food. Very attentive service and a lively atmosphere. read more

Senor Panchos - Bean & Plantain Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Southbury, Connecticut

My wife and I went to Senor Panchos on a Friday night for happy hour (3-6 PM, M-F). I am always looking for a great happy hour and Senor Panchos has it. One of the best in the area IMO. I have to say, it took some investigating to find it too. The happy hour takes place in the bar area. There is, of course, the bar, but there are also tables too. Never fear, if the bar is full, you can sit at one of the tables, enjoy happy hour prices AND get table service! Bonus! There are $3 Tecate beers, $6 and $7 drink specials, $6 wine and $5 seltzers (see pic) and enjoy chips and the best restaurant salsa around for FREE. I ordered the cup of chili and a chicken burrito and my wife ordered the pork tacos (see pics). Everything was delicious and the service was great. All in, tip included, bill was under $50 total, wow. read more

This is a horrible restaurant slow service rushing to get orders that leave for 30min the waiter left after asking about the food we got two plates of three tacos on taco Tuesday the tortillas were hard and a pinch of cabbage and frozen fish patty on top it was horrible I ask another person for the check and left thankfully it was a one time stop will never come back I felt guilty not telling the people waiting to save there money I left no tip and I didn't feel guilty because it was horrible service cold and slow Taco Bell is better!!!! read more

Good choice for Mexican food in the area. Complimentary chips and salsa are very good. Usually get the steak and chicken fajitas which are generous enough to share. Good bar and outside patio. Service has always been excellent. read more

We love the food and the staff is very accommodating. Our latest favorite are the blackened chicken fajitas!

Great food but if you order on Grubhub be prepared for your food to come late and missing a few items. Usually they forget the sodas, once they brought the soda without the food. Tonight, they missed our sides of rice and beans. When they sent the soda without the food the manager just said, "oh the Grubhub driver didn't take the bag with your food". There was no sense of doing the right thing thing for their customer. Just a lack of empathy. I have since learned that direct complaints to the management is not worth it. This is the 3rd time in a row they messed up. And as they say 3 strikes and you're out. I won't be ordering anything with Grubhub and Senor Panchos ever again. My advice is if you want to get your food then visit the restaurant firsthand. If you get home delivery than if you are lucky you might get it ...eventually. Or not... read more

consistently the BEST mexican I've had in CT. My husband and I have gone there since they opened years ago. Andy, the owner is so wonderful! Highly recommend everything - our favorites are the burritos. Guacamole and salsa are fresh and tasty! Best frozen strawberry margaritas too! read more

This was so yummy and the perfect place for a cinco de Mayo lunch. Our server Christina made it even more special, she was alert, attentive and couldn't have been nicer. Every night was delicious and I love that the guacamole and salsa were obv. made fresh daily. We sat outdoors and it was beautiful!! read more

My first time trying Senior Panchos in Southbury, CT for a late lunch. I always start out with the not so good & end with all the good stuff. I waited a bit long to be seated considering there was only three or four other customers at that time. Once I was acknowledged and seated it was All Good! After getting my drink order the yummy homemade tortilla chips and salsa came out. For an appetizer I ordered queso fundido with chorizo. For those of you not familiar queso fundido is melty cheesy goodness. Not for those counting calories. The chorizo gives it that extra kick. For lunch I had steak quesadillas which were four good sizes pieces the steak inside so tender. The quesadilla was a nice golden brown. I opted out for the guacamole and lettuce on top but those are options. If you dont eat alot of the chips or get an app then most likely you'll need to order a side to go with the steak quesadillas Im hungry just writing this review! read more

Great place to meet up with friend locally or go out with the family. One of our regular spots, the Burritos and fajitas are always terrific! read more

I had gotten delivery recently and was surprised at how much you had gotten with a Beef Taco kids meal and Queso dip & nachos. Everything was very fresh! A full dish of fries, fresh chopped tomatoes, lettuce, & cheese along with two tortillas and a beef & sauce mixture! I huge bag of tortilla chips & a separate container of salsa! It was very good. read more

Literally should have just went to Taco Bell , would have tasted better for a fraction of the price. Their "Tex mex" burrito is literally wet mushy refried beans with a sprinkle of diced pepper (no onions or tomatoes were distinguishable in the slop). Oh and small tid bits of steak barely able to be seen or tasted in the mess of disgustingness. Also the churros that I ordered for dessert had green on them? Must have been handled in food prep area with avocado?? Not sure but just overall annoyed with this shit takeout meal. read more

Food is good, service is very personable, the margaritas are wonderful... all at reasonable prices!!! And outside seating . Try it you will like it read more

I ordered one of their Margaritas which was quite good, but I do not believe it had much liquor in it. I was told their Berritos are very good. I did order one that supposed to have steak in it. Well, it did have some steak in it, but if you like grissly meat you may love it. Not much meat though. Since I could not chew it, I asked the waiter to replace it with the chicken version. That was not bad. Maybe I am spoiled with the Berritos I got when I lived in San Jose Ca, or Las vegas. The service was very nice, the ambiance sitting outside is lovely. I feel a an 18.95$ order should HAVE SOME SUNSTANCE TO IT. read more

We had a wonderful experience at Senor Panchos Mexican Restaurant. It has been a while since we were last at a Senor Panchos since we don't live near one, but we were very pleased that we came to this one in Southbury! The owner/manager, Andy, greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome. He then recommended some of his specialties, such as the veggie quesadillas, shrimp and spinach quesadillas, the fiesta sampler, and the veggie enchilada sampler. We decided to try them all, and we were not disappointed. All the food was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The portions were generous to the point that we had plenty of leftovers to bring home, and the prices were reasonable. We particularly enjoyed the chips and salsa, which were homemade and delicious, especially since the chips had a good seasoning on them that other places don't have! The service Andy gave us was also very attentive and friendly since he ensured that we got all of our food in a timely manner. We highly recommend Senor Panchos to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Suppose you can't make it in person. In that case, they also offer delivery on Doordash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub for your convenience, along with the traditional pickup option. read more

I visited Senor Panchos in Southbury with a group of friends to catch up. The service was decent except for when an employee spilled a drink on my friend and all down her lap. I was surprised by how unapologetic they were. It wasn't like my friend was upset with them, but geez at least act like you care that you just soaked someone's clothes and now they have to sit and eat while wet. Other than that, the service was ok and food was good. The salsa is my favorite in the area. The rice bowls and burritos were popular among my group. It was quiet for a while while we were there and once we were getting ready to leave the restaurant filled up with other customers. Atmosphere is cute, location is convenient. I would most likely still come here as food and not too many good Mexican restaurants in the area. read more

Good food -good takeout - I love the roasted corn salsa and chips. I don't usually eat inside the restaurant but good margaritas too

Our favorite place to go! The food is consistently good every time. Our favorite is el grande combo but I've never had a bad meal here.

Even though we live further away, we recently had the pleasure of dining at the Senor Panchos in Southbury. We had a fantastic experience that made the trip worthwhile! The manager, Andy, was incredibly welcoming and ensured everything was perfect by visiting our table to check on our meal throughout the evening. It's evident that he genuinely cares about his guests! The food itself was outstanding! We had the shrimp and spinach quesadillas, the fiesta sampler, and the El Grande combo. Everything came out very flavorful and well made (especially the wings in the appetizer), and the portions were also big enough to have some leftovers to bring home, which is a plus. You also can't beat their homemade salsa and guacamole, which are out-of-this-world delicious! It's wonderful to have an authentic Mexican restaurant in the area like Senor Panchos! We highly recommend this location for a tasty meal and excellent service. We can't wait to visit again! read more

Best spot in town. Actually best spot around! Panchos is a classic place. Awesome service every time. Can't beat their margs either. I usually go with the frozen. Food wise I love the blackened chicken rice bowl and the chimichangas, but plenty other options to choose from. Andy and his staff are so dedicated and consistent. Definitely give this place a try! Special shout out to Pedro and Daris! read more

Best margaritas ever!!!! The taco salad is my fav as well as the fajitas. Always fun going to Ponchos.

Let me say, the food tasted great BUT, two major ingredients were missing from their AZTECA BOWL ....sweet potatoes as and hot honey, with no explanation. ALSO, I experienced four bowel movements, and extreme stomach pains, immediately after eating. I had taken three others with me for a birthday dinner I won't be heading back ever again. read more

love this place! We have been coming for years. The food and the margs are always delicious! service is great too.

Always amazing! Food is always on point and always fresh!!! Love Andy and the staff, highly recommended!!!
