Taqueria Panchitos in Richmond

i could give 10 stars out of 5 if it was possible...every time i come here the food is amazingly good, i don't see how people give this place 1 star. Best mexican food in richmond va hands down

Would give it 25 stars if I could. Went for $1 taco night (Wednesday)... so amazing, great tacos (ground beef and the pastor were our favorites)... super friendly service... best churro I have ever had.

By far the best Mexican food in the greater Richmond area, perhaps the entire state. I am reallky going to miss this place. Great prices and fantastic service always. Definitely come here if you want amazing authentic food.

First time here. I always pass by and say I'm going to try it I finally did. The lady in the front was a sweetheart. She helped me in choosing what to eat. I got the steak burrito which was delicious. The food is very reasonably priced! I had a whole meal fot 6 bucks! Outstanding! 👍👍

Authentic. Next time I'll get a whole charcoal chicken to bring home. Gloves masks and social distancing

Maybe the most authentic Mexico street food in Richmond in terms of cheap venue and menu choices. Meat portion in tacos on lighter side, but salsa and other side dishes are very good. Watch out for the manzano peppers!

Best taco place in Richmond. The most authentic!

Great food. Amazing service.

My new favorite taco place! I always get the regular corn tortilla tacos with cilantro and onion, I like to do the mix and match and get one of three different types. I tried to go on $1 taco day but there was a line out the door, so I might just stick to my taco Tuesdays.

The pastor tacos were amazing. Exactly what you want from a great taqueria. The melon drink was great as well, very refreshing.

Friendly service. Yummy tacos (I ordered the chicken, Al pastor and carnitas). I love that they let me mix and match tacos for the plate of three. Guacamole was also good. My friend ordered shrimp fajitas that looked amazing. I will definitely be back to try more menu items.

Really good! Definitely go on Wednesday for the dollar tacos and try them all!

Great experience. Our order was our in no time and customer service was excellent! We're from lower in VA, so this was a pleasant change of pace. The food is fresh, tables small, family atmosphere.

Some of the best Mexican food in the area. Wish they had more locations or a larger spot in a better location.

Best tacos! Not a fancy place but it has some of the best tacos ever. Small eat in area but lots of people do take out. Very nice staff. Also had a delicious fruit drink. They had fresh horchata, a sweet Jamaica (hibiscus) drink and one with tamarind available. Salsa bar with great variety. I will need to come back for more tacos so I can try all the salsas.

Everything is fresh and delicious. The churros are just perfect

Finally! A decent taqueria! Al pastor was excelente. Chicken and asada very good. Horchata was fresh. Service was great. My only complaint was the tacos dorados/duros use those fakey shells like you see at the Bell.

Tremendous street tacos and burritos. Never go to chipotle again! Way cheaper and better quality! The hot salsa bar adds so much flavor! I bring all my friends here now and I can't recommend enough to anyone in the Richmond area.

I dont get the 5 stars. Their tacos have no flavor. The barbacoa is not anything like any taquerias in texas or anywhere. Flavorless.

Excellent, authentic tacos. Come on Taco Wednesdays for $1 tacos, all types are excellent. The flan and rice pudding are also amazing.

Had $1 tacos and enjoyed it so much that I ordered more. Food was delicious. Seemed very popular due to influx of customers.

Get there early on Wednesday's. $1 tacos. Best Guac in town.

Fantastic. Good. Simple and a pleasure. Reminds me of living in San Diego. We will be back!

Amazing tacos and burritos! Service was fantastic

Small locarion, taste is ok but meat of tacos not that juice. I was expected price lower

real mexican food dont be scared the place looks cheap but the food is great!

My second favorite taco place. A great selection of Mexican staples as well as burritos and delicious dessert options. Salsa bar available with salsas and taco toppings. They stay busy, but have a decent amount of seating. The parking lot can be a tight squeeze at dinner time. Great place for a cheap and quick meal.

Food was fast, affordable and delicious. Place was small but clean and organized. Staff was friendly. I had barbacoa, cabeza, lengua tacos. The tortillas were soft and were not dried out like some places. The meat was well prepared, soft, not dry. Also not overly greasy. The salsa came in four or five varieties and spicy levels clearly marked. The music was a little too loud for my liking but others didn’t seem bothered.

Absolutely delicious and authentic tacos. I have literally had dreams about these tacos and I visit any time I am in Richmond. I LOVE the grilled green onions (cebollitas). Tripe and tongue tacos are a must-try if you're feeling adventurous! The salsas are fresh and incredible. I've also enjoyed the sopa de res and I love getting their tortas to go when I get a chance.

good carnitas, although,I'm picky jiat too much fat mixed in, very well cut up. not too oily though so also a plus. good tortillas and salsa!

I'm glad they're back with their Wednesday deal. The tacos are delicious and their sauces are great too. We also had some filled chorros which were hot at first but the taste and the cream was fantastic. Will definitely come again and again.

I ran across this place while visiting my granddaughter and now I can’t stop going. The chicken, rice and beans are delicious. Also the tacos were looking tasty. If every in the area stop by and enjoy some good food.

Chingon!!! That explains it. Food is so good, every time I'm in Richmond I detour to come here. Tacos are tasty and the menudo is done right too.

Cozy spot for some great Mexican food. Portions are incredible! Everything tastes like freshly cooked. You can also find local drinks here. Unfortunately, no cerveza to enjoy woth you tacos! Guacamole is the best pick for my dinner! Warm chips and fresh guac was enough for a decent dinner! In addition to chips, I’ve ordered fajita and that was also smells, tastes, looks good enough to keep my appetite high!

Panchitos is an authentic Mexican restaurant unlike Casa Grande. The tacos are good here, my favorite are tacos al pastor and tongue tacos. The tortillas have a particular taste like white lime, I like it but some people may not. I had posole once, and once was enough to not order it again.

Great Menudo all the time. Food here is very good!Comida siempre rica👌

Food was good. Ordered a whole chicken and chicken and beef tacos. The problem was making the order and how long it took. The person that answered the phone couldn't understand my accent and I couldn't understand hers. So it took forever just to get my order in. They should consider doing the number system like the Asian restaurants to eliminate the confusion. It also took almost an hour to get food. Luckily I called it in.

This is an unassuming place. Not bad; not fantastic either. They staff was friendly and patient while I change my mind about what I wanted to order at least three times. That means a lot to me. I didn't notice until I left the restaurant with my carry out that there were a couple of mistakes with my order. I'm not sure if I was charged or not. The food was pretty okay though.

I like the dollar tacos on Wednesdays. Not the best tacos but are still pretty decent.

Great for tripitas, (tripe tacos) taste like they would in Juarez

Super nice, clean, and welcoming. The food was great for the price. It’s really simple but that’s what makes it good especially the Chile.

This is the only place in Richmond that makes me feel like home. LA all day, everyday. Love it

Two friends and I ordered thru DoorDash. We ordered Barbacoa, 2 Carnita Tostadas sans jelepenos, 2 churros, 1 tres leeches cake, 2 carne asada soft tacos, and 1 burrito without pico de gallo, avocados, sour cream, or tomotoes (because my friend is allergic). We spent $60. After, someone from the restaurant called to confirm our order and advise we could not have tostadas or churros because the fryer is broken not only were we still charged for them, but everything was fully loaded and the restaurant refuses to accept responsibility for their mistake.

If I could give this place more stars I would totally do it! It's been such a struggle to find Good, close to authentic Mexican food and panchitos was my answer! I'd go there in the blink of an eye! I wish they had more restaurants though and not had to drive 30 minutes out, it's still very much worth the drive. I 1000000% recommend this place, go and you will not be disappointed! Prices are fair too.

Best tacos in town. You pay a little bit for them about $8 for three tacos but they are well worth i. A pro tip is to go on Wednesday during lunch and is dollar tacos..

I love the place,it’s a small place with usually quick service,the staff members are really nice as well and it’s cool cuz you can watch sports while eating

Great authentic Mexican fare, the green salsa is hot and has great flavor

The tacos and burritos are great, but be sure you sauce up at the salsa bar. The only thing holding me back is that they don't make their tortillas fresh. The difference it makes is a mile long wide and deep.

Just moved to Virginia from Texas... These are 5he best TACOS!!!

Amazing tacos!!! Exactly what I was looking for. VERY AUTHENTIC
