I would go back in a heartbeat. Excellent shredded beef! Not shredded small and not watery. Very tasty! Great menu choice in pork, beef, chicken, sausage, and tasty Munudo soup!

We loved this place. The refried beans and rice were bland, but everything else was fantastic. We will go here again.

It's visited by Anglo and Mexican locals alike - good sign. My husband and I went two days in a row, and the proprietor remembered us and spoke with us in Spanish. The chips are great, although the...

Fish tacos are their specialty. It's a hole in the wall but definitely delicious food that can be found nowhere else in the North Lake Tahoe area. Homemade corn tortillas, deliciously fried mahi...

Muy bueno fish tacos! We would ordinarily have flown right by this place but saw a few people waiting outside, always a good sign.The beer battered mahi mahi fish was seasoned perfectly. The "special...

I give the El Sancho tee shirts 5 stars. I bought a few of these over the last two years. Looks like they stopped selling them this year, so I am glad I still have mine.The food is very average but I...

We ordered take out from El Sancho because, quite frankly, it's pretty small and people are usually packed into the handful of tables and stools there. Although you can get a seat at the counter...

I'm from LA, where good mexican food is easy to comeby. Tahoe however, is a different story. Think of El Sancho as a "diamond in the rough." It's got the authenticity/deliciousness of a...

A top choice for a good cheap meal in the North Lake area. Truly great fish tacos and most everything else you would find at a *real* Mexican joint. Reminded me of Puerto Vallarta on the inside....

We stopped here because after seven days of cabin food I was ready to eat a meal that I didn't have to do dishes for. Plus I was craving some enchiladas. This place is tiny but great. The service was...

I gotta take a moment to defend El Sancho from the haters. I don't know about you, but after a hard day on the slopes I have neither the energy nor the funds left for some swanky dinner a la...

I really like this place as opposed to what others have said. I give it four stars not for the service, which is lacking (a young boy taking orders and his mom in the back cooking) but for the food...

The place is small, brightly colored and had a menu written in spanish on poster board. What a great start. There are neon signs for beer, but I guess they have new owners and don't have a liquor...

I'll be honest: The only reason I ate at this restaurant while on vacation is because I had a BOGO coupon. However, I am not one to turn down possibly authentic carnitas burritos, so I decided to...
