I consider myself a bit of a nacho aficionado. If I'm getting delivery, these are my go-to nachos! A great portion, balanced toppings-to-chips ratio, so many sub/add options, fresh and tasty ingredients... A work of art <chef's kiss>.

Got Chorizo for the Meat Quesadilla Dinner Plate and it was a great portion. Chorizo was a little less than mild spiciness - might be considered spicy to a toddler though. Came with rice and opted for refried black beans which my toddler liked a lot and side of salad and tortillas. Great deal!

We usually love ordering from here, the tacos are usually so filling and jam packed with meat, we usually love the flavor and amount of meat on the tacos. However, today we were less than pleased. I would rate them a 4.5 any other time but today it's a 1.5. My al pastor tacos were really bean and pineapple tacos, not worth $13, besides not having enough meat to even taste, the flavor of the tiny pieces of meat was very disappointing. The carnitas tacos were okay, but the plate appeal was not there (when it usually is).
This is sad because this was one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in San Francisco.
(The 1st two pictures are from today, the 3rd and 4th were from before, same type of tacos).

Large portions of great tasting food at a very reasonable price makes this a go to spot for me. Best Agua Frescas in the neighborhood by far. Can't beat it all around.

Great food!!! If you're looking for Enchiladas, Pancho Villa has the best deal for delivery and the best quality, flavor and portions on the east side of SF. What confuses me is the extras; sometimes I receive chips & salsas, sometimes not. Sometimes a single serving of guacamole, sometimes a white salad dressing...I want chips and salsa, so I'll order a side, but then they additionally give me a bunch free with my meal and I have way more than I need. (???) Consistency would be nice. I love the butter Grilled Garlic Butter Fish Taco, but sometimes I receive one in an order and sometimes two. So, I'm not sure what an order actually includes. Once again, consistency is a problem. But the food is great and prices are reasonable for the portions. I highly recommend Pancho Villa.
