Sancho Restaurant

I had the pleasure of dining at Pancho, and it was absolutely exceptional. From the moment I walked in, the cozy atmosphere and charming decor made me feel right at home. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that my experience was flawless from start to finish. The food was simply phenomenal. Every dish was bursting with flavor, made with fresh and authentic ingredients. I tried the [dish name], which was perfectly seasoned, and the [dish or drink name], which was the best I’ve ever had. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Additionally, the attention to detail in the presentation of the dishes and the perfectly timed service truly showcased the team’s commitment to quality and excellence. This place is a hidden gem that I highly recommend, whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just craving an amazing meal. I can’t wait to come back soon!

I had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic Spanish restaurant, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was simply outstanding — every dish was bursting with authentic flavors and beautifully presented. The tapas selection was perfectly balanced, and the paella was one of the best I’ve ever had outside of Spain. You could really taste the freshness of the ingredients and the passion behind the cooking. What made the experience even more special was the impeccable customer service. Nara, our server, was absolutely amazing — friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. She made great recommendations, explained each dish with enthusiasm, and made sure we were completely taken care of throughout the meal. Her kindness and professionalism truly elevated our dining experience. If you’re looking for a place with incredible Spanish cuisine and top-notch service, this is it. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning soon!

Went there with my wife and had a great experience. The service was top notch and so was the food! This is a small neighborhood restaurant with high end food and service at a good price. My wife had the octopus and I had the snapper fillet. Both were great! Our server Nara was courteous and made us feel at home. We will definitely be back!

Claudia is the best server we had have in a while anywhere. Sancho's paella negra was just amazing. Fresh and flavorful. Hands down the best Spanish Restaurant in Miami

You won't believe the amazing time I had at that! The food was incredible. And the atmosphere? So cozy and inviting. But the real highlight was the staff. They were unbelievably helpful and attentive – something you don't find everywhere these days! I actually thought I'd lost my wallet, and they went above and beyond. They checked the security cameras and kept checking in with me. They even asked me to call them when I got home to let them know if I found it (which I did, thankfully!). I'm so incredibly grateful to everyone there. I'd wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone – it's a total 10/10! Best,

This local restaurant is great!!!! We came a random week day and after that, we became big fans. Food is amazing and the service even more. Big shout out to Rogelio…. That’s what I would like to call an excellent service and energy. 5 stars for him 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Food was amazing, delicious, and filling. The paella Sancho was smooth and flavorful. The atmosphere is loud, and lively for dinner. The music is a great addition, though a bit loud. The server Narah was so nice, very caring and on top of us at all times in the best way. Loved the experience.

Excellent experience at Sancho’s. We were cared for by Narah and they went above and beyond to serve us and make sure we had a good time. We ordered the pork and it was absolutely delicious. There was live music, which contributed to the wonderful ambiance. Overall, highly recommend!!!

I lived a few minutes away from this restaurant for almost 30 years and never went to it. A few days ago I was looking for a place to take my mom for Mother's Day and I found this with very good reviews on Google and decided to give it a try. SERVICE: I didn't think that I needed a reservation but I suggest you make one. I'm not sure if it was because of Mother's Day but the place was packed. We got lucky that we only waited 5mins for a table. One of the waiters came to us waiting by the entrance and he quickly grabbed a table for us. The place had like 7 tables with 12+ ppl in each of them. It was insanely packed but our waiters were smiling, funny, professional, and moved pretty quick considering the amount of people there. Great service. FOOD: Delicious, delicious, delicious. It's rare to find chivo (goat) but they had it and it was tender and delicious. My husband ordered sangria and I had a sip of it and it was also very good. The food is Spanish so there's a lot of good food. ATMOSPHERE: Good stuff. So much fun! They had a singer and he was truly excellent. Then at some point they turned off ALL the lights and two waiters came out holding a huge tray with a whole pig on it and one of those firework thing that they always set up in the VIP areas of clubs when you order bottle service ? (Hopefully I'm making sense) Well they had that on the pig and they were bringing it to the middle of the restaurant. Everyone was clapping and making noise. The head waiter had a microphone and said that they would cut it like they did back then for the kings, he then grabbed a large plate and hit the pig in a few areas to cut it. Then he said "and to show you this is a real plate we'll brake it". He then slammed the plate on the ground and everyone went crazy cheering. There was so much excitement. It was full with many generations and everyone was enjoying the fun and food. It was great. Not sure if all this was just for Mother's Day but it's worth visiting. It's been around for more than 30 years and with good reason.

Everything should improve including their portions, prices and show. This is the 4th time we go for dinner throughout the years to this restaurant and will never be going back.

My hair stylist told me about this place about 2 years ago because I always went to KFC before cutting my hair. One day I gave Sancho a try and KFC has never seen me again! This place has good daily special, great prices and good quality and variety. Last week we came for the Thursday dinner with the violinist. The attentions were great (as always) and the food was excellent, I had the pork filet Mignon and my girlfriend the rabo encendido. The music wasn't my favorite because it was too fast for being at a restaurant, it felt more like a party music. I like coming here for lunch and also the Paella special on Mondays!

I've been here several times the food never disappoints the restaurant ambience is very nice, elegant and the waiters are very attentive. Sometimes they have live music which adds to the experience.

My parents and I went for happy hour and we were not disappointed! The ambiance was great. Our server, Nara, was very friendly. We had some warm bread, and shared the gambas al ajillo, the croquetas de bacalao and ham, a piece of tortilla, and the garbanzos fritos. Everything was delicious. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant.

I ordered the seafood Paella to go. It was excellent, full of Spanish taste. I ordered a bottle of Albariño (Santiago Ruiz), but it was overpriced!

The food was yummy. We had patatas bravas and they were good but I've had better and they didn't taste authentic. The churrasco though, was great. The French fries that came with them were literally drenched in oil and burnt. I didn't like it. But the service was good and the environment was good especially that we got to see a "show" of them they brought the pig that takes 4 hours to cook. It was a cool experience. They turn off the lights and start singing and cut the pig traditionally. It was cool. Other than that, just a standard Spanish restaurant.

Food, Service and Ambiance Las croquetas de Ramon y de bacalao divinas. La primera vez que fui abriéndonoslo el restaurante. las 12 del mediodía nos comimos unos huevos rotos con un pan tibio, croquetas una delicia.La segunda vez fui con parte de mi familia por la noche con music en vivo ellos quedaron encantados, tenemos que llevar al resto de la familia. El servicio excelente!!

1st of many visits. Food and service top notch. But the food!! You have to visit to understand the full experience.

I can tell you the cochinillo is so tender you can cut it with a fork. The Lubina is spectacular. Has nothing to envy with the one they serve in Madrid at La Dorada

El restaurante no es barato en absoluto, sin embargo, le sirvieron a mi marido un "bistec" que básicamente parecía una galleta de galleta molida y le sirvieron a mi hija pescado congelado, lo cual el camarero no tuvo ningún problema en admitir. Nunca vuelvo a venir aquí, aunque me quede al lado de mi casa. The restaurant is not cheap whatsoever, yet they served my husband a "steak" that basically looked like a skillet cookie of breading and served my daughter frozen fish, which the waiter had no problem admitting to. Never coming here again, even if it is within a walking distance of my house.

excelente lugar y agrad atención. la comida excelente y deliciosa recomendado Gracias Daniel por tan hermosa y profesional atención

Overpriced for the amount of food given I had the oxtail with moro rice and sweet plantains. The taste was good, but the portions of the oxtail was way too small. It was one big bone and one small bone

1st time trying Sancho and I was a bit disappointed. Ordered hot tapas to start out. Garbanzos fritos, croquetas, and a mix of fried shrimp, squid, and fish that had so much breading that you could not tell which was which. All 3 were definitely sub-par. We then ordered Paella with chorizo, pork, and chicken. The food took a long time, well over an hour. The taste was fine and the portions big. However, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. Felt is was quite overpriced as well. I will not be going back any time soon.

We live nearby this restaurant, and we've been talking about trying it out for quite a long time ... and we finally did last night. Being a Monday night, it wasn't too busy with plenty of available tables, and we were sat fairly quickly. They have a large bar and a set up for live music, probably for weekends I would think. Our server was very friendly, and informed us of the specials of the day, which included 50% off the sangria. We loved the basket of bread they brought... It tasted like the crust of a wood-fired oven pizza! We both had the sangria and it was delicious. Considering it was not a busy night, our food did take a very long time to come out, but I'm guessing it was made fresh to order. I was very happy with my dish, the Zarzuela de Mariscos. Very tasty! Would like to come back another time with a larger group, and order of one of their Paellas.

Great food with excellent service! Not one to give a review but this restaurant deserves it. Will definitely return.

I love the cochinillo and the whole show that they do when you offer one. The cochinillo is so tender but crispy at the same time. Love their food

This restaurant was nicely decorated. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! We had tapas and paella...superb!

This Spanish restaurant has great food and Juan Gil wines which is my favorite. Great service all around especially Andres!

This place is ridiculous for the prices they charge. A quick search would have yielded much better places with character, better food and proper service. Don't bother, but if you already did, try Casa Juancho or El Rincon Asturiano for a proper Spanish experience.

First time dinning by a friend recommendation. When we came the restaurant was not busy and we hesitate to stay but then decided to give it a try. The Sangria Blanca was delicious, strong and sweet like it should. The appetizers were on point and the entre an absolute paradise. The meat was juicy and well seasoned, vegetables were actually fresh and so the plantain. Dessert with torta San Marcos and vanilla ice cream to finish the course. I have to admit I was impressed with the service and the food. Shout out to you guys!! We'll done

Amazing service!! Friday nights they live flamenco singer and dancer. It totally sets the Spanish ambiance. The food is authentic Spanish and you can't go wrong with anything you order. The red sangria is delicious and not sweet. I highly recommend making reservations to sit inside when there is live entertainment. They have a bar but without seating. You can order bottle of wines or pitchers of sangria. You can also bring your own bottle of wine and pay a small corkage fee.

We were looking for very good Spanish food and definitely it was the place. They have a very good 5J ham, an excellent cheese, and the wine doesn't stay behind. The service was really nice and the ambiance perfectly to share among family and friends.

Great place to host a private event! They have incredible packages and great service! The staff was so friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. Highly recommend you consider them for, birthflarge gathering or family event.

This restaurant is fantastic!!! The food is equally matched by the service. If you've never experienced REAL Spanish food you really need to come here. It will change your mind on the way you see it. 12/10 Nosolen provided us incredible service. I can't wait to come back! If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

We booked ahead for Mother's Day because hey, it's Mother's Day, we knew it would be PACKED. We arrive about 10 mins earlier, they said we had to wait because our table was not ready. Again, I get it, I'm early, it's Mother's Day. We waited, ONE HOUR, with reservations! They finally sit us, another 15-20 min wait to just get a drink order in. From our 8P reservation, we started eating around 10:15P-10:30P. All and all: FOOD is GREAT but you will wait and service is not great.

My son wanted to celebrate his Birthday at Sancho specifically because of The cochinillo. It did not disappoint. You need a reservation and It needs to be preordered with a deposit. They make a whole little show about it. It was very good. Nicely seasoned, juicy, very lean and the skin nice and crunchy. Grant you we bought for 6 six people and 8 ate of The cochinillo. I was a little disappointing in the portions of the sides: yuca, moros & plantains. I think they could been a little more splendid with the moros ( that's a cheap side). The rest of the party enjoyed other more Spanish dishes. Again disappointed in the portions. Their sides could be more plentiful especially for the prices - not cheap. Great place for a celebration. Live music. Friday Spanish dance. Good service.

Excelente experiencia siempre que venimos pasamos un buen tiempo en familia .Paella 10/10 croquetas de bacalao 10/10 todo exquisito como siempre . Y el servicio de Nara siempre impecable gracias ! Ambiente 100/10

Great service and nice ambiance. One of the few, REAL Spanish restaurants around. Made reservations for 6 for the cochinito and were sat down immediately. We shared the cochinito and sides between 6 of us and it was more than enough. Appetizers were also delicious, especially the croquetas. Sangria was yummy. Live music was nice. Would return.

Stop here for a quick bite to eat after a long day of touring a few colleges in the area. The ambience, the staff, and the food were all amazing. If you're ever in the area stop by, it's worth it.

Where do I start?! I have eaten here a couple times and have also planned an anniversary party for about 20-30 people, and all I can say is that the experience has always been phenomenal. The staff are highly attentive and helpful when it comes to recommendations in food and drinks. They have live music on the weekends, so it's very relaxing, specially for a family dinner. The food is delicious, and very authentic to the Spanish cuisine. They also have a great wine selection and homemade lemonade (kids will love). Servings are large, therefore 2 can easily share. For dessert I love the cafe Bombon, that's what I usually go for for in Spanish restaurants, and it didn't disappoint. We had the stuffed peppers, coquettes, tabla mixta, and serrano ham for appetizers. They have hand cut potatoes, and a great veggie mix side. Definitely a place to try when you're in the mood for tapas, wine, or just Spanish food. Enjoy!

Ambience it is nice Service very good Wine list good Entertainment was nice My food in the scale from 1 to 10 (10 the best) Bread and butter very good an 8 Croquetas a 7 Paella Valenciana a 4 (overseasoned and the rice not close to the taste of paella valenciana, the seafood was good an plentiful) The cochinillo 3 To my taste not even close to the cochinillo en Casa Candido, en Segovia Spain and The texture of the meat was to soft (mushi), and unsalted Dessert and 8 Was arroz con leche

Planned to have a birthday dinner at Sancho and was treated with amazing customer service from beginning to end. All employees ensured we had an amazing time from the second we sat down till we left the restaurant. The food was beyond amazing and the environment was everything that we imagined and more. I wanted to thank the staff for making my moms birthday such a special worry free event

Excellent food! Great service! Whenever I want healthy delicious local food I go there. From the soups to the entrees everything has always been perfect. Highly recommend 100% especially the coffee :)

Came here for my mom's birthday with my family, she had heard great things however it didn't fully meet our expectations. My family got the paella and it was okay, the individual paella were supposed to come with maduros and they didn't come out until like 15 minutes after starting the meal. I got the churrasco, and I realize this isn't the best place for this but it was super alright, nothing special. The service was mediocre at best, our server seemed to not really udnerstand what we ordered and at the end we got the wrong check. The location is also not ideal for the type of restaurant since it seems misplaced where it is. Also we did see tiny German cockaroaches on the windows inside near where we were which didnt make the food very appealing especially for the price of the food... Overall 3 stars might be generous

Service, good but prices don't match with food. I mean, the food had a delicious flavor, in general, but the size of the plates were very small. Besides, we asked for a Caesar salad and there was no green lettuce in the plate.??????? I told the waiter there were only croutons and chicken and he , very kindly, changed it and came with the same "thing" but with the croutons in another plate. they definitely, don't know what a Caesar salad is. No green at all.

Very delicious seafood Paella, this restaurant is under new administration, is a coming back place for me. Server very professional and friendly. They have a good wine selection too.

My cousin took me there for my birthday and I loved it! Service was incredible as well as their food. We shared wine and several tapas. My favorite was the pepillo peppers stuffed with cod fish on the most exquisite sauce! I highly recommend you make reservations if you go on a weekend night, as we went between lunch and dinner time on a weekday and by the time we left it was already getting packed.

This is the finest Spanish restaurant in our area. It feels like a restaurant that belongs in Coral Gables, because of the elegance of the decor. The suckling pig is espectacular, and so are the croquettes

The place is clean, big, the lunch menu offers a $10 lunch option but chose to order tapas instead. We ordered ham croquetas. They were slightly burnt, fried in a horrible tasting oil. No chance of bechamel sauce at all. Ordered fabada which was good except expensive at $12 for a very small portion. Next was the huevos rotos. Now this was pretty awful. The cubed potatoes were some less cooked than others in the same oil as the croquetas. This oil is terrible tasting. The ham was about the cheapest jamón serrano they could use, so the whole dish was not good at all. Last, was strips of beef with onions and peppers. This was ok but by then the bad taste of the cooking oil spoiled anything else for me. The restaurant is supposed to be a Spanish restaurant but the menu is pretty much as a Cuban restaurant. I do not recommend it.

Were there last saturday and We have to Walk out of the restaurant because the staff does not care about us .. we seat ask for sometjing to drink asked the waitress to take our order and watch him how he took other order serve the food to other people and we still waiting.. What a shame good food but horrible service

I went last night with my wife and had a great time. The meal was delicious, we had only tapas, as we wanted to try different things, they were all great. The octopus was the best, it was very tender and tasty. The sangria was strong and the flamenco show was entertaining. A table next to us was celebrating a birthday and they were having the lechoncito, a very small roasted pig that the servers then cut tableside with a plate, at the end they break the plate. Apparently it's the Spanish way. Last but not least, the servers were very attentive. We'll be back .

Very fast and good service. Food was good. On Friday night they had live Spanish music.

Stopped in here for lunch with my mom. They have a great $11 lunch special. We both had a grilled corvina w/ rice and a side salad. The corvina filet was surprisingly large and had a delicious buttery flavor. We had a cafe c/ leche afterwards at $5 each for a very small serving. You can get a cafe c/ leche at the cafeteria next door in a bigger size for less than $2. Besides that, the food is good, so just stick to the lunch specials and order your coffee at the ventanita a few doors down.

We attended anniversary dinner for my grandparents at Sancho's and I must say I was impressed! Sancho's is quant Spanish style restaurant but what it lacks in size it makes up for in entertainment. The Friday night performance was outstanding. The flamenco singers were great and even went up to our table to serenade my grandparents. Needless to say grandma had a blast! The food was good, I could have eaten an entire plate for the chistorras! The only complaint of the night was that the soup came out cold. Wine was affordable and service was very attentive.

It was highly recommended by a friend so we gave it a try. Some of the items on the menu were no longer available that was a disappointment. The staff was rude and non caring. Never criticize a customer in front of another That's very rude. Very disappointed. Sometimes the food might not be excellent it it's the whole experience that makes a great meal.

I ate here for the first time yesterday and loved every dish we had. There were 3 of us and ordered various tapas instead of main dishes. We had the cold cut platter, the octopus, the codfish stuffed pepillo peppers (my favorite!) cod croquetas and creme brule. All were delicious and great quality. Service was also fantastic. I look foward to going back.

We went to try out this restaurant wine is fine but the food is ridiculous prices are like you were eating in Coral Gables why hi and no taste at all I will never eat at this place again don't waste you time I work for YELP

Excellent food, HOWEVER, we called in advance to inform them that it would be 6 adults and two small children When we arrived, the waiter sat us down but argued that we should have told them that we were bringing two children. He was not yelling but was very insisting that we "should have" advised which we did but apparently they misunderstood. He repeated himself 4 times till we asked him, "is there going to he a problem if we stay?" to which he finally dropped the issue. Later the table behind us cleared and the two gentlemen who cleaned the table where talking loudly about their plans after work and if they were coming to work the following day. (excessively loud) We don't need to hear their personal business. Lastly, when they came to refill our water, the waiter reached over our heads and poured the water from approximately 12 inches away from the glass causing water to splash everywhere to include on my plate. (recommendation, have them grab the glass and pour the water from pitcher directly to glass ) The environment and food for what it is, is priced right but the waiters and the employees we had encounters require much needed refinement, finesse, and etiquette training. It was very difficult for me to justify a 15% tip ($40 dollars) for the lack of good service but did so out of custom.
