    Pancho for Valentine’s Day was a given! I do not exaggerate when I say the ceviche has the best flavor of anything I’ve ever eaten. Obsessed! Highly recommend the oysters, pork tostadas, chorizo as well. Everything is so tasty.

    Panchos is as vibrant and lively as ever! Still serving variety of good quality, interesting and exciting Latin American dishes in a fabulous environment, and I just love the pisco sours. If anything, even better than on previous visits!

    Such a beautiful place, has good vibes. Food was lovely and staff were attentive to us. The only negative was the stools at the ‘counter’ seating were uncomfortable towards to end of the meal! Otherwise a great dining experience, got to try some new foods which was great!
