Pancho Villa - Madrid

Outstanding experience! Delicious and promptly served food orders brought by smiling, friendly staff. The Margaritas were fairly priced, refreshing icy beverage that were the perfect further complementing the meal! I would post pics but did not have my phone with me. Updates for sure to follow?Food: 5/5

This place is probably okay when it's not hot outside. But it was 90 out and we were sweating inside. It kind of ruined our dinner. Food was fine and the staff were nice fun and attentive. might be back....if they air condition their restaurant.Food: 4/5

I love small town finds, and this one was no exception. Pancho Villa in Madrid, IA was a middle place to meet family, so we decided to give it a try after driving by countless times before without stopping.Service: super friendly, funny, helpful and generous.Chile Relleno (stuffed pepper) is a favorite of one of our diners. It’s also done differently everywhere, so par for the course when he gets it someplace new. He orders it just about any Mexican restaurant we go to. Instead of an egg batter outside, this one was an entire omelet folded over the pepper. It was fantastic, a different spin on other variations where the pepper is dredged thru egg batter but not folded into an omelet, and possibly the best one we’ve had vs. other places. He will gladly go back for this dish 100x over.Camarones a la Diablo (devils shrimp) is a favorite of mine. I love spicy food, this is one dish that I look for and order frequently at Mexican restaurants. I enjoyed everything about this dish, in terms of ingredients, freshness, presentation, etc. but I thought the sauce wasn’t spicy enough and a little bit too “ketchupy”. It wasn’t awful but wasn’t the best I’ve had.Texas Fajitas (steak, shrimp, chicken, chorizo) was delicious. Everything was so fresh and plentiful. Great flavor. This dish alone would’ve been enough for the three of us, they definitely do not skimp on portions.Chile Torreados (fried pepper) is a must for me on the side. However, these jalapeños were not spicy at all. Luck of the draw, did not take away from the experience.We were given a surprise, small dessert of vanilla ice cream, topped with chocolate and honey, over a sopapilla and garnished with a dash of cinnamon sugar. A wonderful surprise for such a and muggy day!Iced tea is fresh brewed and not out of a gun (and if you’re an ice tea drinker, like we are, you’ll appreciate that…especially in the summer).A quickish drive from DSM, already planning out our return.

They have wonderful food and great service. They are always very good and willing to help with take out orders and I've had a great experience eating at the restaurantFood: 5/5

Great food at a great price here. We order from here all the time, mostly take out. Our food is always ready in 10 minutes or less. Staff is wonderful here! Always polite and ready to serve while dining in. They also have an extensive menu as well as an open bar.Food: 5/5
