" I love this place! Their fish tacos are out of this world. Real authentic flavors and the food tastes very fresh. I also appreciate how they offer a nice variety of salsas to try. The only drawback is the limited parking, which can be a hassle, especially during lunch hours. However, if you can manage to snag a spot, it’s definitely worth it for a great meal. I highly recommend the spicy salsa along with their grilled shrimp tacos; it makes for a perfect combination. " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant's hidden gem! I've been here a few times now, and each time the food gets better! Their signature burritos are a perfect blend of flavor and freshness that never disappoints. The vibe is upbeat, especially during the evenings when the college crowd fills the place. My only complaint would be the parking, but considering the quality of food, I find a way every time. Highly recommend the surf and turf burrito; it has become my favorite! " (*Curated Review*)

" Señor Pancho is an experience. I've been coming here since my college days, and it’s always been a favorite! Their breakfast is amazing, especially the chorizo burrito, which is packed with flavor and makes for a filling meal. Even post-college, I find myself returning when craving a good Mexican fix. The casual ambiance is perfect for hanging out with friends. Just wish they had more seating; it gets crowded during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve never been to a place like this before! I had the breakfast burrito, which is massive and stuffed with all sorts of goodies. The flavors were on point, and they included generous portions of salsa. However, the ambiance is quite basic and could use some character. It’s clearly a favorite among college students, which contributes to a lively atmosphere but also a bit of noise. Regardless, I would certainly recommend this place—great food that is worth experiencing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Señor Pancho last week after hearing so many rave reviews about their California burrito, and while it was tasty, I was a bit underwhelmed. It had good flavor, but I expected the portion size to be larger, especially for the price. The atmosphere was nice and the outdoor seating was a plus, but my experience could have been improved with some more attentive service. They seemed short-staffed that day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a really fantastic experience here last weekend! My friends and I ordered several different tacos to share, and we were blown away by the flavors in each one. The ambiance was friendly, and the outdoor seating was just perfect. I can’t recommend the shrimp tacos enough; they were the highlight of our meal. I’ll certainly be back to try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Señor Pancho has consistently delivered good food. My go-to is the carne asada fries; they pack a punch in flavor and size, and they are perfect for sharing! The environment is lively, perfect for having a meal with friends. Though service can sometimes lag during busy hours, the taste makes it worthwhile. This is a place that I regularly recommend to my friends. " (*Curated Review*)
