Ponchos Tacos — Restaurant in Baltimore

🫶🏼 follow sincerefoodiemia on IG for a detailed food order

TL;DR for ppl who are too busy to read my essay below: JUST GO ALREADY OK. And make sure to eat a paleta for dessert and take sweet fried plantains to go to eat while walking on the Light St. and for love’s sake, make sure to get a tamale to take home and reheat for the next day’s meal (tip on IG on how to properly reheat tamale in microwave)

First of all, allow me to start this review by saying I am a picky eater from SoCal, the place for best tacos on the US West Coast.

I have been to Clavel and several other places in Baltimore, but I was always disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, Clavel is pretty yummy, I just don’t think a taco has a right to be like $5 each like what the heck.

This was a stop after I had eaten a full meal at the other place so I was super full to the brim and just went for funsies because I was like I have a feeling they are authentic and when I stepped into the store, I KNEW I HAD TO EAT SMTH WHO CARES THAT MY DRESS IS DIGGING INTO MY STOMACH.

I got a tamale which was $3.50 so reasonable so love it 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼 cuz I can’t make tamales at home haha

I got a paleta and it was soooooo goooood (check my insta sincerefoodiemia to see what flavor I got cuz there is a lot hehe)

And my friend got the fried sweet plantain for only $5 and they have such a heaping amount and those were sooooo goood

I am def coming back to try their tacos like I love this place sm

Def coming back. Highly recommend, my favorite AUTHENTIC Mexican food spot...

I was staying nearby and decided to give Ponchos a try after seeing the great reviews. I almost didn't order the chicken mole because I had been disappointed with the last few Mexican restaurants in Maryland with mole that had none of the richness that this dish should have. I'm so glad that I tried it. The moment I took my first bite, I knew that I would be ordering this again. The mole was rich and complex with the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. It brought me back to mole that I have had in Mexico prepared over the span of several hours. I also ordered the steak taco which was delicious and generously filled as well. This restaurant is...

I recently had an incredible experience at Pancho Tacos that truly impressed me. The food was exceptional, bursting with authentic flavors that transported me straight to Mexico. Each dish was expertly prepared, from the vibrant tacos to the rich mole. The freshness of the ingredients really shone through, making every bite a delight.

Equally impressive was the service. The staff at Pancho Tacos was not only attentive but also genuinely friendly, going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. They offered great recommendations and made us feel welcome throughout our meal. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience that I can't wait to...
