Pancho-Villa Cantina in Berlin

Great taco place with homemade salsa 🔥 Amazing friendly staff. Delicious margaritas and Corona on tap. Terrific playlist.

If you want to experience real, authentic Mexican food, you should come here! You feel like you're on vacation in Mexico! We'll be back!

We arrived quite late and there was still food 😀

The food was fine, though the portions seemed small for the price. The service was disappointing, particularly due to the waiter's attitude.

Authentic Mexican food in the middle of Berlin. Drinks and tortillias are first class - it's not cheap - but I think it's worth it!!!!! We'll be back!!

I'm a (US) American living in Berlin for 15 years, and I've constantly been searching for an authentic Mexican restaurant, and I'm just ecstatic to have finally found one! I recommend 3 vegan chorizo tacos (with cheese) on taco Tuesday, with real habernero hot sauce. The homemade chips and guac are also great. And Germans, it's okay to eat with your hands! Yummy!

The owners are Mexican, they are friendly and the food is very good.

Delicious tacos that taste like proper Mexican food, yeah!!! This is not a bad review i just want more meat! They have chicken tinga and pibil only Tuesdays and Thursdays but any other day you can only get one meat item which is carnitas. I enjoyed the vegetarian tacos but felt desperate for another meat taco. I think that would make this place perfect! I will try to get back on a Tuesday or Thursday.

Better stay away from this place. Tasteless overpriced food. I had camarones al ajillo and fish minilla (Easter Special ). I also had the Tacos menu which is a regular dish from their menu and even that one is tasteless. How can you actually cook Shrimps and Tacos that badly. Total disappointment. Told the waiter twice and he was just smiling. Never again

The micheladas and palomas are great. Don't forget to try their tacos. Ask for the spiciest salsa 😍

The tacos are very delicious, the michelada is one of the best in Berlin. The staff very friendly and efficient. It really has the essence of a Mexican restaurant 💚🤍❤️

Not very nice. Food taste very flat and not very fresh. I will not go again.

food is really whatever, almost kinda nasty. the fried stuff tastes like old oxidized oil. the so called pulled pork was all goey and cold. the best was the sauce which tasted like dust. the corona didnt taste like corona. also highly overpriced for what is served. would def not recommend.

The service is very friendly and responds to my wishes. The food is delicious, freshly prepared from fresh ingredients and sufficient. Really delicious. The ambience is a matter of taste. It's just in the hustle and bustle of Kreuzberg. I'd love to go there too.

Total solidarity with Pancho-Villa Cantina.

I love it, the place has an original atmosphere and real Mexican food, the service is great, a little Mexico in Berlin I recommend it 200%

one of the most authentic mexican places i have tried in Berlin. michelada is nice. the owner is nice and she is from mexico

We had taco-mix, nacho chilaquiles with carnitas, amazing! Very good michelada as well!

Came for food, stayed for drinks after the food. Great place!

I enjoyed the restaurant and its terrace to grab a few bites for dinner. There are a few vegan options which is nice, I found the vegan chorizo interesting but was fairly disappointed with the Nopales which lacked taste in my opinion. Guacamole was average, margarita a bit too sweet for my taste. So overall, I was not particularly impressed with the food but service was great and the spot is chill.

Many gluten-free options! The owners are well informed about celiac safe food prep. I never have high expectations for Mexican food in Berlin. Once I put a taco carnitas from Pancho Villa in my mouth, I felt like I was in California, at a Mexican wedding. This has never happened in Berlin before. If you want to try real Mexican food in Berlin, come here. The service is excellent. If you are hungry, you won't wait long for anything. The atmosphere is great, especially in the middle of winter. The restaurant inside is bright and cheery. They even sometimes have Mariachi music!

One of the places with the best Mexican food in Berlin!

As a mexican living here for 3 years, who tried most of the taquerias and Mexican restaurants in Berlin, now this place has been my go to since months, and I can confidently say it offers the best real Mexican food in the city. (Meaning that this place don’t offer “Burritos” or the typical TexMex food most of the Mexican places in Berlin try to sell as mexican). From the moment I walked in, the warm hospitality made me feel as though I had been transported straight to Mexico. I could recommend everything as it has even vegan options, but my favorite are undoubtedly the chilaquiles and tacos de carnitas with chicharron. Equally impressive were the micheladas. Simply the best I’ve had! The owners and the staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to recommend dishes and explain the rich culinary traditions behind them. For anyone in Berlin looking to indulge in the best chilaquiles, micheladas, and tacos, Pancho Villa is a must-visit. It’s more than just a meal; it’s an authentic cultural experience that celebrates the vibrant and diverse cuisine of Mexico. Highly recommended!

Tasty food & salsas and wonderful service!

Food was okay. Guacamole was nice. A little bit overpriced, portions are pretty small. We had to order twice to get full.

Super traditional Mexican restaurant. The best MICHELADAS in Berlin 💯 recommended! Highly recommended to go sing karaoke and if you are looking for Mexican flavors. Excellent service and atmosphere.

Delicious and very authentic food! They know what they aee doing

If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, you've come to the right place!! The owner was super nice and had something to tell about every dish :) you can really tell that there is real enthusiasm behind it. The tocos carnitas are particularly recommended, but what surprised me most were the tortas nopales - I haven't tried them anywhere else and they were very tasty.

This restaurant in Kreuzberg serves the best cochinita pibil tacos in Berlin. Pancho Villa is a proper Mexican cantina that specializes in tacos de carnitas, beers & cocktails. Every weekend they have a limited edition taco 🌮 Moreover, they have a wide selection of traditional and innovative Mexican starters, mains and drinks selection 🍹 We ordered: Taco Cochinita Pibil (3.95€) • Mini Taco Bites Especial (8.90€) • Taco Carnitas (3.45€) • Torta Nopales (4.00€) • Totopos with crunchy pork belly & spicy guacamole (5.90€) • Classic Margarita (8.50€) • Margacheve (12.50€) • Michelada Classic (7.50€) Watch video on marywave_foodie

Incredible place!!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The service was very friendly but unfortunately the food was really disappointing. We ordered a special taco menu, a nachos-guacamole starter and a tinga tostada. The pork tacos were dry as can be and not seasoned. The cactus tacos weren't convincing either. The tostada tinga was okay. There is very little choice on the menu. The cocktails we ordered weren't strong enough too. In short, the service is not enough to save the bill.

“Pancho Villa” is a true gem among Mexican restaurants in the city. The tacos de carnitas and special dishes are simply the best I've ever tasted. Every bite is full of authentic flavors and the quality of the ingredients is outstanding. For vegans, the restaurant also offers a selection of delicious tacos that are equally tasty. It's great to see that vegetarian and vegan guests are also being considered. The long drinks are absolutely recommended, especially the Michelada. It's refreshing and perfectly seasoned, just right on a hot day. The staff is super friendly and attentive, which makes a visit to “Pancho Villa” a completely pleasant experience. I highly recommend this restaurant!

A tad pricey, but all in all a nice dining experience. Very Good authentic Mexican taste!

If you are in Germany and are craving authentic Mexican food, Pancho Villa provided us with an unparalleled culinary experience, without a doubt Mexico with every bite. I recommend trying the house Micheladas and Tostadas

Amazing tacos and Micheladas! Excellent attention and authentic atmosphere...

Micheladas 10/10 Tacos 10/10 Service 10/10 Now it is in my Top Mexican restaurants in Berlin as no. 1 🫰🏻🤠❤️

Everything was very tasty & nice service :) I'll definitely be back! Can highly recommend the gucamole!

The atmosphere is amazing, the food is the best!

Good atmosphere, nice service, had a free drink for my birthday 👍🥳

The Tacos were!! You could just taste onion. Worst tacos ever

I'm so happy to have discovered this place. Delicious food and friendly service. My biggest issue was they ran out of mezcal

Small portions, big prices. The food tastes normal. There isn't a large selection and the prices don't match the performance. A taco, quite small, costs €7.90. Instead, I'd rather buy a kebab somewhere else and get full. The margarita was correct and average price. Not recommended anywhere. The owner says I wasn't there. Nachos with guacamole €5.90 (very small portion). Three small quesadillas €7.90. There's Margarita, Caribbean Margarita and Margarita with Mezcal. I was there after all. If you don't accept customers' opinions, or only positive ones, you have a problem... Have a nice day and all the best

Nightmare! Smallest portions ever. The waiter was rude.Everything felt like microwave food. We never got what we really ordered.

Worst Mexican I ever had …and I‘ve lived in Mexico for a year

Visiting from LA and a bit home sick from running around all week in Berlin I wanted something to remind me of home. The corn hand made tortillas, the soft shredded carnitas, and the spice are perfect. If I could recommend something. ensalada de Nopal and a Pico de gallo would go well with your tacos. Also does anyone in Berlin have tacos de asada?

Authentic and really tasty. Dear owner ☺️

Excellent tacos and micheladas! The staff were also very friendly, and service was very quick. Very satisfied and will be back!

Fiesta Mexicana!!! Mexican karaoke basement! Loud and lively. Tacos with ground beef were delicious. Corona was available on tap, but also very expensive - 7 euros per small 0.33 glass. The mezcal only costs €3.50, which you can also see in the pub 😂. The karaoke singers burn just as much as the mezcal and the good atmosphere. The ambience is layered and rustic and very tight, as befits a cantina. Fun evening but not as cheap as it seems at first glance. But we'd love to come back... maybe with some earplugs 🙉😂

The Tacos are incredible and the beers are cheap. There are many vegan options and there was authentic-feeling mariachi music by a live performer when we went. The staff is very kind and fun, albeit a little slow

Today I was there, one of the best Mexican places in Berlin. You can't miss it. They put a lot of love and time into quality and detail. The nopales are delicious, fresh! The carnitas tacos are the best in Berlin. Don't miss the special taco! Oh and the micheladas, specially prepared by the owner, are the best I've ever had. Greetings! Denise 😉

I thought I didn’t like margaritas… that was before I came to pancho-villa. NOW IM A MARG GIRL. Best margarita I’ve ever had. I’m converted. And the vegan chorizo taco is to die for.

Best margarita I’ve had since Mexico!!

tasty! guacamole was good and the tacos are decently delicious too. Service was fast and the owner was super friendly!!

Tacos were good but not great. Unfortunately, the Easter special dish (see pictures) looked completely different than the picture on the menu and didn't taste good either. Service was great for that.

Anyone who has tried a lot of authentic Mexican food and knows good food will be disappointed here. You can hardly taste the spices. I found it partly oversalted. The sauces help a little but it's not really good. The shrimp were not freshly prepared and were therefore rubbery. I hope the quality will be better.

Nice staff, atmosphere cool. We had vegan tostadas, the vegan taco mix and totopos. Unfortunately the price-performance ratio is a bit weak. Especially €5.90 for a small bowl of totopos and guacamole was a bit disappointing. I know some other very good taco shops in Berlin where you actually get more for your money.

Come here for an authentic meal made by friendly staff.

Margaritas here are really good! one of my favourite in Berlin and currently €6.50 on thursdays

Great tacos. 🌮 Really friendly service.

Had an amazing experience at Pancho-Villa Cocina in Berlin! The food was authentic and delicious, impressing even my Mexican boyfriend who knows his tacos and tortas. The mezcal and Margachelas were perfect, and the owners are incredibly welcoming and lovely to chat with. A fantastic spot that felt like a true Mexican gem after our long journey. Highly recommend!

Very delicious food, authentic and with a lovely staff! Tacos were very well seasoned, the meat was cooked to perfection. Also big shoutout to the guacamole! This is by far the most authentic Mexican restaurant I’ve been in Berlin and I can’t wait to come back :)

Delicious! Super authentic. But… way too expensive and / or just not big enough portions.

Unfortunately we had a very bad experience. Our order was misunderstood and when we pointed it out in surprise we were more or less ignored. The food was expensive and not particularly good, we left very disappointed. I definitely wouldn't come back

my boyfriend and i visited here on our first night in berlin a few weeks ago i got tacos with just cheese and they were so yummy lol the server was very friendly and took a photo for us when i asked and even suggested a nicer background lol

Great experience! First time there, but we will be back! Friendly staff, great food and fabulous margaritas. We loved the crispy pork tacos.

Best tacos in town. Good for a quick lunch and also for dinner with friends

Had the tacos (both vegan and normal). Great fresh taste, great sauces, good prices. Margaritas were tasty. Super friendly staff, lovely place. Would definitely go again.

It's not bad but it's too pricy for what it is and too small. For the same price, you can easily find better and bigger portions of Tacos in Berlin. Service is friendly and fast.

This has become the restaurant I visit most often in Berlin. Reminds me of tacos I had in Mexico City... I love the carnitas and they have veggie options as well. Plus they always bring three hot sauce options to your table too. The staff here are always lovely, service is fast, prices are fair, and the atmosphere is very chill and cute.

The tacos were very tasty, great atmosphere to celebrate.

Had dinner here last night, and it was top notch. Best tacos ive had in a very long time. Food and service was perfect. Can't wait to go back🤤🤤

I haven't had Mexican food this good since I was IN Mexico 🥹 there's very few places I've found in Europe that can make it truly authentic and Pancho-Villa is one of them! Full of flavor and perfectly cooked. I can't wait to come back!

Authentic Carnitas! Juicy, porky. Three levels of hot sauce, super crunchy tortilla chips and zippy guacamole. Super friendly multilingual service. Highly recommended

Super delicious vegan tacos and margaritas! Highly recommended

The best Mexican cantina in Berlin! The food is delicious, Eduardo is an excellent person and his team is magnificent. I will always eat my tacos here.

Great opportunity to delight your palate with delicious Mexican food. Excellent service.

Delicious mexican food as well as AMAZING margaritas! It's veggie/vegan friendly as well, which is highly appreciated. The service is prompt and very cordial. If you want an authentic mexican food experience in Berlin, this is great choice!

One of the best Mexican food restaurants in Berlin without a doubt! Delicious food and very fast service. The staff has been very pleasant at all times and the place is beautiful. We will be back soon, thank you very much

Das authentische mexikanische Essen ist super lecker. Mir haben die Tacos especiales besonders geschmeckt. Das Fleisch ist super zart. Auch die Margaritas kann ich nur wärmstes empfehlen. Ein kleines bisschen kommt México durch die freundlichen Eigentümer von Pancho Villa näher. Einfach TOP!

Wow! I loved this restaurant, as Mexican, I highly recommend Pancho Villa if you are looking for an authentic Mexican experience. The owners are super nice and the food is just amazing. My favorite dish was the Special Taco with chicharrón and cuerito! But I also tried the chicharrón en salsa verde and was just spectacular! Thanks for bringing us to Berlin a little piece of the Mexican cusine. Ohhhh and please, for drinks try the Michelada especial and the marga Cheve!!!

Real mexican Food!!! Mexican owners too!!! Love the tostadas in taco tuesday!!!

We love it! Good food and nice service. Very tasty Micheladas and the special dish of the day was our favourite.

We ordered two margaritas, which were completely undrinkable. The boss admitted that they are premixed from the bottle, followed by the sentence that people love them. Food wise it wasn't something special, tacos were tasteless and avocado kind of brown...Would never recommend!

Wirklich authentische mexikanische Küche, gemütliches Flair und sehr freundliche Bedienung

Legit cantina vibes with a curated menu, beautiful service and delicious food.

nice little place .. interior is not spectacular but functional. the small tacos are good.

Los mejores tacos de carnitas que he probado en Alemania

Los tacos estaban muy ricos y el servicio fue excelente.

Super Tacos & Quesadillas - netter & authentischer Service. Gracias!

Great tacos, great salsa and carnitas, good guacamole, all very authentic none of that tex mex nonsense :)

Delicious high quality tacos and quesadillas

Best place to get Micheladas! Tacos set with drink was also delicious, definitely coming back again 🤌🏼

The best micheladas and margaritas of Berlin. The tacos are very yummy. If you want to have a good time with friends and eat delicious food, this is the perfect place. It's an authentic Mexican restaurant. You can feel the Latino and nice vibe when you enter the place. The owner and the team are from Mexico. I will come back soon for more micheladas.

Amazing carnitas and salsas. And the best micheladas I've tried on this side of the ocean. It definitely has my Mexican seal of approval. 😁 Thanks to the owners for everything. I'll be back soon.

Estoy deseando volver a Berlin para comer en la cantina de nuevo! La comida y el trato no puede ser mejor

I stumbled upon this gem of a taco joint in Berlin that's basically a fiesta for your taste buds! 🌮🎉 They've got this magical touch with pork, their tacos de carnitas are like a flavor explosion in every bite. It's like a Mexican carnival in your mouth, complete with the perfect mix of spice and sizzle. The atmosphere is as lively as a salsa dance, and the staff? They're like the amigos you never knew you needed. If you're up for a flavor-packed fiesta, this spot is your taco paradise in Berlin! 💃🏻🍻

Como mexicana en Berlín puedo afirmar que esta cantina trae un sabor original, tradicional y auténtico. Las margaritas están con madre!!! Una michelada? Uff Los tacos son buenas porciones y la atención es excelente. Música increíble!! Estaba en mi lista de lugares por ir y definitivamente volveré a ir!!!

The food tastes finally like home!, the carnitas are so tasty and the vegan chorizo is a must, and the salsas 🤤, please be aware that the owners are mexican, so the spicy sauce is actually really spicy, do not make the same mistake as I did, however, it was totally worth it, it tasted really good.

This is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in GERMANY! As soon as I have the first bite of a taco it transports me back to Mexico, it’s just authentic flavor because is made by Mexicans with lot of passion. My favs are the chicharrón taco with green salsa, spicy but you just can’t stop eating! 1000% recommended if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food.

I was pretty disappointed from the flavour, nothing special and additionally everything was served cold. Overall, at least the prices are cheap compared to other street food Mexican in Berlin.
