The food is amazing, the pricing is great, the restaurant is well decorated and impeccably clean. I personally love the cemitas. They are similar to a torta with a flavorful twist and pair perfectly with an horchata. Enjoy!“

“A Hidden Gem on Plum Grove and Higgins – A Must-Try!

We recently visited this charming restaurant located conveniently on Plum Grove Road and Higgins, with easy access from entrances on both sides of the building (formerly a McDonald’s). It was our first time dining here, and the experience was fantastic from the moment we stepped inside.

The staff greeted us warmly and made us feel right at home. When we mentioned it was our first visit, they went out of their way to explain the menu and highlight the house specialties. We started with chips and salsa, and what a treat! They served four varieties of salsa, each made fresh in-house. The flavors were unique and absolutely delicious—some of the best chips and salsa we've had in a while.

For our main dish, we opted for the fajita combo. The staff kindly asked how we preferred the steak, which we appreciated as it showed their attention to detail. When the sizzling fajitas arrived, they didn’t disappoint. The steak was perfectly cooked, tender, and bursting with flavor. The chicken was equally amazing—juicy, well-seasoned, and just as satisfying.

The tortillas were kept warm in a tortilla warmer, which was a nice touch and exactly how I like them served. The sides of rice and beans complemented the meal perfectly. The rice was light and flavorful, and the creamy refried beans rounded out the plate.

The location is just three miles from our house, which makes it even more appealing for a quick and satisfying meal. We can’t wait to come back and try more items from the menu. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and check this place out—you won’t regret it!“

“This is our second time having Pancho's do onsite cooking/catering for a party at our home, and it won't be the last! Everything was fantastic from the moment I called to book the event with Susie to confirming with Jesus to the moment when Jorge and his partner left (sorry, I didn't catch her name). There was so much food, everyone kept complimenting how awesome the food was. I was worried about not having enough food but there was so much with lots of leftovers! The staff is so friendly and accommodating. Their equipment was clean. They kept their area where they were cooking and serving organized and clean. When they left, there was no mess. I would, recommend them to anyone looking to have a taquiza at their home!“

“Delicious food and fantastic service!!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Qdoba on halloween with the devil. And I was blown away by the experience we received. It was exceptional as hell!

The food was delicious, as always, but what truly set this experience apart was the outstanding customer service.

We encountered a minor issue with my order, and the staff immediately took action to rectify the situation. Their promptness, professionalism, and friendly demeanor were truly impressive. They went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction, and we were incredibly grateful for their kindness and efficiency.

I highly recommend this Qdoba location for its delicious food and exceptional customer service. They truly know how to treat their customers!“

“Absolutely the best service and friendly environment that you could have at a food place. The best flavors and presentation of all there food options on the menu. I’m a loyal customer I’ve been eating here since they’ve opened. Very fast delivery of the food and staff will also ask to take your trash for you! 100% would recommend eating here for any occasion.“

“Tried Vegetarian Burrito and a Veggie Taco.Very authentic. Reminded me of Mexican food I used to have in Los Angeles.Corn tortilla taco was Ultimate !! It has plenty of Avocado as well.No Free chips and Salsa though. Have to buy separately. Cutting one star because of this. Otherwise food is very good.“

“It is my best go to taco place? Sadly, another location had street corn ? but not in here. I had salad bowl and it is sooooo good! Love the edible bowl, so crispy and flavorful. Mixture inside harmony with some fresh veggies and meat! They have plenty of seats but also drive through✨✨✨“
