We really enjoyed our meal. But, it has 3 major issues to overcome. First off the beaten path and even a secondary path. Next the building is in the second layer of businesses . Making it difficult to even see the restaurant. Except a small one.All considered it has to a local, neighborhood place.aService was good. We were the only customers steered.. Another reason almost didn't go it But as I said we enjoyed our meal and the price with quality was# also good We have already mentioned it to family in Lincoln Will return at some point. As we don't live there

The sign on the door warned they were a carry out only restaurant, but I told them I wanted a margarita, and they let me eat in. And YUM! Admittedly, it scared me that this little hidden gem isn't on any of the Yelp lists people create. C'mon, Lincoln, NE! check this place out and add it to some Yelp lists! Here's why:The green sauce: avocado based. Get your healthy fats in the most delicious way possible!The customer service: bend over backwards outstanding. Literally they let me eat in, even though they only want to do carry out.The margaritas: STRONG! yummy!The street tacos: yes, I am a fan. These are exceptionally well made, really bargain priced. Lunch time, this place should be jammed. Please, dont let them go out of business, Lincoln! Grab a bite here, I promise you'll be so glad you did!

Went there late last night (a Friday), and we had great food and service. Extremely tasty chimi and enchiladas, fantastic salsa verde, and a really good margarita. We will definitely be back! Well done, Eli & Lisa!

The location is a tough one to get to, and it's in a strip mall so ambiance is plain. But these are absolutely NOT dealbreakers.The service was slow, I had to do a lot of the footwork myself, took quite a bit to get seated, despite a near empty dining room. The waitress got us sorted out and we ordered. The chimichanga was massive, came with plenty of beans and rice. My wife's shrimp fajita was small, but she's a light eater, so it was just right.We had to hunt our waitress down to get the check and pay... Service wasn't super attentive. But the food was really good, and you can see the grill/cook working his tail off, he was so busy that when I thanked him and told him we enjoyed the food, he didn't notice me at first.

My favorite Mexican restaurant in Lincoln. The grilled chicken burrito with the burrito sauce and #2 Eli's chicken are awesome. It is my favorite thing to get when we go there and will keep me coming back. Service was great and the owner is very humble and thankful. Thanked us multiple times for coming.

I've been rooting for Pancho Villa for years and always suggest people visit there if they have not before. But I am compelled to share this criticism hoping that the owners see it as constructive because they definately need to fix some things if they want repeat customers. I knew we were going to have a larger group of 8-10 on a Friday night so I called several days in advance to give them a heads up. When we got there, there was a handful of other customers but the place wasn't full. Ambiance has never been the draw for sure, the florescent overhead lighting is awful, but there also was no background music or anything. Just cold, bright, uninviting. The server didn't bring waters to everyone, which was odd but also not a huge deal. When we ordered our drinks, we all asked for a water. Our first round of margaritas was gone before the water arrived. It took a really long time for the server to come back to get our order. She wasn't around, no idea where she kept heading off to. I assume it's because they're shorthanded everywhere so she was helping elsewhere? Idk. She didn't seem to think it was a big deal to leave us hanging anyway. Once our food came out, it was good. I will give them that, Pancho's has good food and the green avacado salsa is absolutely delicious. We did have one person get the wrong protein in his meal and another whose meal came out a good 20 min after everyone else had been served. The owner did come ask how everything tasted, etc., but the server did not.After TWO HOURS of being there, we were still waiting for the bill. Finally one of us went to find the server and she gave him a long printed out receipt. She never asked who was with who and even though the couples were all sitting beside each other, our food wasn't grouped together at all so my husband went and got a pen and decoded it for her. I won't go there with a group again and probably won't ever dine in again. There's a lot of other mexican restuarants in this town that have a lot better customer service and provide a better overall dining experience. I honestly think they should pair down their menu and get a food truck or focus on fast casual dining.

Late lunch mid day. Walked in after seeing a couple cars out front. Not a single person dining here. Should have been our first sign. Quiet. Like uncomfortably quiet. Halfway through our visit someone turned on the tv to some music. No kids menus available. They were out. She just told us what was offered. $10 Margaritas over rocks wouldnt blend it. Heavy on the syrup. Couldn't taste the alcohol. $0.99 balloons and streamers used to decorate. Food was hit or miss. Some enjoyed their dishes while others didnt. Do not play to return.
