1 star for their bowls. Chipotle bowls are much cheaper, more than twice their size, healthier ingredients, and much tastier.

The chilaquiles were pretty tasty and sizable portion. I liked the drink selection too, though was bummed at only canned or bottled drinks. One of my companions and I both had some indigestion afterwards, but overall the flavor and pricing seemed alright. The server was very helpful and this place gets you in and out quickly, which was very necessary for our party. Ambiance is quirky, bright, and fun. Seems like more of a summer hangout? Limited indoor seating, especially for larger groups.

This restaurant is literally one of my favorite places to eat every time we are in Bend. The service is super fast, their tacos are FIRE, and their margaritas sooo tasty - the mango margarita is a personal fave. There is not a whole lot of seating but every spot has been filled every time I go!

Green light red light, I’ve wanted to check this place out because when I drive by it looks popular. However I felt like I was back in Olympia at some dirty hipster cafe. My tacos tasted funny not in a good way either, service was nice but did not add up to the off tasting meat. Carne Asada to be exact tasted old or freezer burnt. Wanted to like ya all but I’ll keep driving by.

I wasn’t going to leave a review because if you can’t say anything nice… well, the chips were good. I woke up this morning with a sad stomach after tiny veggie tacos (mushroom taco and potato taco) that had flat, bland bits in it that I couldn’t identify by taste. The taco shell was greasy and limp.The rice and beans were literally cold. This is actually the third time I had been at this location. One time the carnitas tacos were good. Filled with tasty ingredients.The second time soggy, very little filling. Not favorful. Think I would learn. Going back for these veggie tacos, the honest truth I would rather have lost my cash on my way there than spent it on this food. Up your game, Mr. Sancho! You can only float along so long on hype and a swell cartoon logo. Ok, logo is good, chips were tasty, beer as expected. There, I did say something nice.

Glorified food cart vibes with $4.50 street tacos. 29 degrees outside but nan one outdoor heater is on and 75% of the seating is outdoor. Not exactly an inviting atmosphere on a Friday 12/1. No water in the ol’ self service watering whole. Ordered chicken tortilla soup that is actually closer to pazole minus all the other ingredients that make it pazole… tortilla soup that consists of broth and chicken. there’s no reason to come back or spread good word about this spot.

This place has super yummy fusion style tacos, great margaritas and a great atmosphere. The line is worth it!I have ordered from and sat to eat here countless times, and generally have been very happy. There have maybe been one or two times that the tacos seemed off, but still good.

Not only is this one of the most reasonably priced ways to eat out in Bend, it’s delicious, high-quality food. There is outdoor seating in an enclosed area with heaters, but it doesn’t get very warm on a cold evening. There is some indoor seating as well. They have lots of alcoholic beverages too, but I’ve never partaken. As a vegetarian, I always get the potato tacos and the veggie tacos. They have a vegetarian mushroom one too, but I don’t like mushrooms.

Went out with a group of friends. The Sancho Bowl was well portioned and had all the mixings, but the flavor was generic. I think I could heat up the same ingredients from canned food and equal its flavor. Staff was friendly, but I felt the same when I walked into a fast food establishment. I'll give another try with a different food choice.
