Great taco shop in Bend. Have had several types of their tacos and all are so good I can't tell you my favorite. Last time out, had a taco bowl with chorizo. Fantastic! Service is always friendly and fast. If you can walk there, do. Parking can be tight sometimes.

We kept seeing a lot of taco places on our visit and we landed here our last night. Their system of waiting outside is nice because it is a small place and when you get inside you order before you go to your table. The chips and queso were good. I had 2 tacos, one green chile and cheese and one chicken. Both were very flavorful. My husband had 3 different kinds and liked them as well. My hibiscus margarita was delicious.

Now that I've done the rounds on taco spots in Bend El Sancho is officially my favorite. Great variety. The shrimp is cooked perfect. Great kids options. The parking lot can be a little tight so street parking is easy. The ordering and seating is very organized. Food comes out quickly. Nice & helpful staff. I love their guacamole, the queso is not my favorite, the chips are awesome.

Every time we go to Bend I have to go to El Sancho! The food is very delicious and their margaritas are the best! Counter service and they bring you the food which is great! Very old school in decor, heated patio, but I prefer the indoor booth or table seating. Going back to Bend soon and will definitely come by for lunch!

My favorite place in Bend!!! I'm from SanDiego and know how to make pretty awesome Mexican food -- these guys have their own special take on tacos!!! I love everything they cook and mix to eat and drink :) Consistently great food!!! I call it hippy Mexican food and it will totally rock your buds!!!!

Recommended by our chiropractor, it was good. I love the tacos how they are semi hard but don't break when you take a bit, just right. The barbacoa and chicken were both good, definitely do a variety to try, we will definitely try a variety next time!

Voted by my son as the "BEST" tacos. We actually had lunch somewhere else, I know that's a funny lead but I was stuffed and my son wanted a taco...for dessert. A few drinks and a taco, I was sold on the tacos. We only had tacos, they are great tacos, I think they have more than tacos but they're really good tacos. It's a taco joint, bigger than a taco truck. Can you say taco, taco, taco without thinking of the word bell. This ain't no Taco Bell and did I mention they have tacos?

Order at the counter. Quick service. The fish was cooked a little too long but the flavor was good. The Habanero sauce is spicy! Good sized. Indoor and outdoor seating. Other tacos were worth the stop!

I was visiting from out of town when I noticed this place was highly rated. Having been raised in San diego, I'm always on the lookout for good Mexican food. When I got out of my car, I noticed an extremely long line leading from the front of the restaurant, along with a very full patio. It wasn't entirely clear if the line was for the inside or the outside. There was a sign offering beverages to those who approached the bar, which wasn't visible from where I was standing. The menus were listed outside for convenience, and the items sounded thoughtfully crafted. They also had a wide array of adult beverages, like margaritas, in the newly popularized Ranch Water. There is a stoplight at the end of the line letting customers know when it's okay to step inside and order. The ordering process was quick, and we were advised to take a seat at our table, which was numbered on the wall. There is a water bar that is self-serve. I ordered the chile and cheese taco as well as the potato taco. They were tasty, albeit small for the price. The Michelada could have used a bit more oomph in the mix (either more seasoning or more lime). I might return if someone is having a gathering there, but I don't feel like I will be back on a casual visit basis.

Came here on a recommendation and really enjoyed it! It's a fun ambiance and great for groups. Ordering was a little slow even though they weren't that busy but it was fine. I tried the mahi mahi and mushroom tacos. The mushrooms were meaty and had a nice sauce. But I especially liked the slightly-fried tortillas that gave a good structure and texture to the taco. Beautiful views too!
