Food was really terrible.. Not a good experience. We ordered steak fajitas and they were like leather. Service was slow.

Parking is a problem. Food was awesome but parking is a nightmare and I got towed ($256) The service was so-so. All in all a great place to eat but service could be better.

Awesome food!. I went here for lunch with a friend yesterday and it was great! The last time I tried to get in, it was too crowded. On Friday afternoon there's no problem getting a table. We got a couple of margaritas (two for one!), a big complimentary basket of warm tortilla chips and salsa and a couple of combination plates. All this for about $21 + tip. What a deal! The waitresses were very nice. I've got to start going back more often.

By the way, I had a chicken tamale, chicken quesadilla, and chicken taco with rice and beans. Scrumptious!

Awesome!. We arranged to have a celebration dinner at Poncho Villa for 30 people, at 9:00 PM on a Saturday night. The owner was prepared for us when we arrived, and we proceeded to have a fantastic night. Margaritas, chips and chipotle sauce (the BEST!) were brought promptly to the table. The dinner orders were out soon after, and were spot on.

The karaoke was a bit loud, but it added to the overall ambiance and fun!

As noted elsewhere, parking is tough, however, we were asked 3 separate times by the wait staff where we parked, just to make sure that we wouldn’t be towed.

Never again. We had the worst experience at Pancho Vs. We've been there several times, for 2-for-1 happy hour and decent mexican 'greasy spoon' food, and more often then not been satisfied, but the last time was terrible. The food was cold and soggy, it was bright and loud inside, and when we left, our car had been towed. We were in the gravel area at the back of the lot, and tried to tell that to the towing company and the servers in the restaurant, but they didn't care. Then we saw the security guard out in the parking lot watching people walk in to the restaurants on both sides, and on his cell phone, with the towing company I assume. He wouldn't even talk to us. What a scam. That $250 bill was the last we'll pay to Pancho Villa.
