| - I've been a loyal customer since their Fort Apache location. When that location closed, I was devastated. Although another guy took over the restaurant under a different name (Paiz) and a similar menu, it was not the same. I've been patiently waiting to find out what Elena and her family had in store for the future; so I was beyond ecstatic when I saw news of Pancho's opening on Facebook this morning. I immediately rushed over!
Wow! Pancho's always had the best vegan Mexican food in town, but now they have a great looking restaurant to go along with the food. The old place was very plain. This location is a LOT bigger and everything from the wall decor to the stringed lights makes for an ambiance that matches the cuisine perfectly.
Their vegan menu is also more extensive than before, and I intend on trying all of their new items with each visit. I can't speak about their non-vegan items because I have never tried them nor will I ever. All of their vegan food that I've tried thus far has been delicious! My favorites are the crunchy potato tacos, the vegan nachos, and anything with the cilantro lime mushrooms. Their vegan beverage selection is all made in house and yummy as well, from their horchata to their fruit juices. They also have an alcohol license now. I look forward to trying their micheladas very soon.
The only way this place could be better than it already is is if they went 100% vegan, but I completely understand that as a business it's more profitable to be appealing to the general public. If you could not already tell, I am a huge foodie, and I can confidently say that this is my FAVORITE restaurant in Vegas. If I could give more stars, I would for this yummy vegan friendly restaurant that's run by a super sweet family!
