  • Sometimes I catch something out of the corner of my eye that takes just a little while to register with my brain&rsquo

  • This was the case with Pancho Villa&rsquo

  • The interior is packed with Mexican kitsch

  • Service was friendly and prompt with the counter woman efficiently taking my order

  • Then ensuring it was with me speedily

  • The burrito had a soft and lightly toasted exterior which encased a plentiful supply of flavourful beef with a good spice tingle and freshness from guacamole and sour cream

  • It was one of the best burritos I&rsquo

  • Ve sampled in the city and provided me with a really tasty lunchtime snack on the go

  • Both the chilli and chicken ones are very tasty but I do prefer the chicken ones as sometimes the chilli ones can be a little spicy

  • The combination plate is also good to start with chilli quesadilla

  • Chicken wings and nachos if there are a few of you as it is quite a lot to eat on your own

  • T overpower it which is something I personally hate

  • Another plus for Pancho Villas is that they also do student discount

  • One of the best Mexican food I had till date

  • Cheese and beans Quesuadillas and Taquitos Dorados along with ginger beer and Cranberry juice

  • Veg Quesuadillas were the best amongst all

  • Only thing we did not like was Taquitos Dorados which were basically bland tacos but nevertheless

  • All in all it was a good experience

  • 5.95 as advertised both outside and inside on the menu which I was handed by staff

  • 10.95 the explanation being that the advertised price was for the lunch menu

  • How is that my problem that I was given a lunch menu

  • Unfortunately I didn't press the issue as it was getting dark and I was in a hurry to get home

  • I put it down to just a one off bad day but I write this on New Year's Eve after yet another encounter with the same waiter which upset me and my family so much

  • What arrived at the table was a pitcher containing crushed ice

  • Clearly made in a blender with absolutely no liquid content at all and totally undrinkable as the ice mush was so thick

  • It was very clear that while there was some strawberry taste

  • After some time the pitcher was replaced with a strawberry margarita 'on the rocks' which was fine and actually contained some tequila this time

  • He stared at me and said they don't do pitchers of margarita on the rocks ( with ice cubes as opposed to a crushed ice mess)

  • The atmosphere was ruined and I looked at my wife and little boy and said let's just go

  • Other disappointing points of this restaurant is if you have a mid week meal

  • You will find that you have to get up from your table and interrupt the waiters who spend more time chatting with each other behind the bar than being attentive to the customers

  • A smaller plate with larger chips adorned with guacamole

  • Tastefully decorated with attentive and friendly service
