Reviews for Pancho Pistolas Authentic Mexican Restaurant in Chicago, IL

Awesome Mexican food everything was delicious! The Carne Asada was so tender and seasoned to perfection. Guacamole was great.... Frozen margarita was on point! Read more

Came in for lunch. Wasn't packed when I came in but slowly started filling up. Dine-in service included a basket of tostada... chips, salsa, and a pitcher of water. I ordered the taco dinner. For steak tacos there was a upcharge. Firstimpression...delicious! Tacos were packed with meat and garnish. Meat was very tender, rice and beans weren't over salted.Overall restaurant was clean, not as spacious as other Mexican restaurants but adequate. It looked like there was only streetparking. Pricing is also a little higher than other Mexican restaurants, but for good food, it's worth it. Would I return? Yes! Read more

Just my favorite Mexican restaurant. The carne asada medium rare thee best????. I love the margaritas. My favorite dessert is... of course the Fried Ice Cream. Yum! A must try restaurant. Prices are a little deep in the pocket but so worth it. Nice patioarea and indoor ambiance is relaxing. It can get very busy, but the service is spot on from the moment you walk in till you walkout. Some servers have been there over twenty years, so you know they are good. Read more

Excellent !! The food was so delicious and flavorful. It tasted very authentic. I ordered the steak quesadillas and a margarita... and everything was delicious. I would highly recommend. The only con was the wait staff, she seemed very annoyed or impatientwith us. I would definitely still return. Read more

Haven't been here in awhile, and decided to go back on a Tuesday for tacos! Once there, I decided to order something I haven't... seen reviewed, so I went w/a steak gordito instead (easy on the beans) and a steak taco. The steak wasn't as well seasoned as Iremembered on my last visit, but I added a dab of their delicious pico de Gallo and was satisfied. I also remembered to order alime margarita swirl (Frozen lime margarita w/sangria), it was REFRESHINGLY GOOD and kind of snuck up on me!!! I'd DEFINITELY goback because they have great service whether dining inside or out and the food is good. The only downside is parking. This areahas limited parking and at times it can get congested, so street parking can be a bit tricky. Read more

I came to this restaurant on Saturday, I ordered 1 chicken taco which was approximately $5. I came back today the waitress... charged me extra for cheese and everything on the menu! No Kid menu! No lunch menu! $50 for lunch??!! Stay away 31st UnionPistolas Mexican Restaurant . Make sure you know what you are paying for! Read more

The atmosphere was great the food was just ok... I asked for medium rare steak taco's I was told the meat was already cooked so... that would only happen if I ordered a whole skirt steak... the drinks were weak.. we ordered a pitcher of margaritas thattasted like lemon lime kool-aid... this was our 2nd time here I now remembered why I never came back...

This is a solid Mexican American place. Prices are reasonable but not cheap and the food is pretty good. They provide chips and... salsa (two types of salsa; both great!) for free when you sit down. The chicken burrito was a tad on the dry side, but easy tofix with some extra salsa! If you're in the mood and looking for greasy American Mexican food, this is a great spot inBridgeport! Read more
