Pancho's Villa

First visit to Pancho’s- the best Mexican food we’ve had since arriving to Anchorage in June 2021. A TON of food for $13-$15 per entree- definitely reasonable. Ground beef nachos with melted shredded cheese- that is one thing we have not quite adjusted to- no queso dip- BUT this was still pretty good. Good flavor, chips were crunchy and yet weighed down with fresh toppings- excellent! The ground beef enchiladas, beans and rice were delicious also- way more than enough for two people. The only thing I would change is there was no salsa that came with the order. I read they had great salsa- prob should have asked for it- otherwise still awesome. Thank you!

It's my second time going here. The food is not bad by a Longshot. The only thing is that service can be hit or miss depending on who's working. My two experiences were different as day or night. I recommend their tamals and their frozen margaritas. As a bean lover, their beans weren't the best but with the type of rice they pair it with, it's a good combo. Their pork was probably my favorite, so I recommend their carnitas.

We were always loyal to LaMex since our first date there 47 years ago but since they went out of business we were looking for a New Mexican place to eat. After trying several places and unhappy we decided to head to Spenard and try Pancho Villas. It’s an old building and been there as long as I can remember but the food was fantastic. The best crisp tacos I have ever had. Flautes, enchiladas and rice included. We finally found our New Mexican restaurant. Don’t let the location or building keep you away from this great food, fast service and friendly staff. Also full bar service.
