Pancho's

[ehowton]

The best Mexican food I've had since I left Texas, I found in New York:



After we were finished for the day in Amsterdam, Bill and I drove back down to Albany and had dinner. We walked into my boss's room/conference room where an all-day meeting was still taking place. He whispered to Bill, "There's pizza over there if you're hungry." Bill replied, "Oh we already ate."
"At Pancho's." I said. He said loudly enough to stop the meeting, "WHAT??? They have a Pancho's here?"
"Not like ours," I told him, "But it was damn good. Best I've had since Texas."

He's going tomorrow.

There's no little flag, and it's not buffet. It's just...wonderful. The frijoles were some of the best I've had even in Texas. They used the white queso for their enchiladas. I want to go back. But what if...you are right? Now I'm not saying that Albany is a hotbed of underground Mexican cuisine?...but you have a point. I'll keep looking, but I bet this one is the diamond in the rough ;)
