Our worst fears have been confirmed. According to a post on the Facebook group “R.I.P. Pancho’s on Veterans,” a misguided group that places their gluttonous desire for flag-raising-on demand sopapillas over any disdain for the Texas company that abandoned the city after Katrina, Panchito Metairie writes that Pancho’s is in fact opening in the old Ho Ho Super Buffet location as early as March 2009.
The best thing to come out of Hurricane Katrina next to a single assessor . . . is no more.

Yes, it’s true! We are opening in the old Ho Ho Super Buffet location, and are shooting for sometime in March. We don’t want to give a firm date yet, because we don’t want to disappoint anyone if we run into delays. We will keep you updated.
In the meantime, be thinking of what you want to wear for the Grand Opening Photos. We want to take lots of them so we can create a “Wall of Fame” to honor our fans who did not give up!
We are thinking of displaying some pictures of the old location as well, so if you have some you would like to share, let us know.
yay i’m so excited Panchos has a myspace to show your excitement
We are so excitied it has been a family tradition for our family to go to pancho’s on everyone’s birthday. I have a picture with my daughter and her mexican hat for 7 years and we are lacking the last 2 can’t wait to continue this tradition. Thank you Jennifer Kenner, LA
FINALLY…………..
I don’t care where they put Pancho’s, I miss it terribly & can’t wait for the grand Opening to begin. However I am taking a trip to Texas – probably at the time our new Pancho’s opens! I will get my Pancho’s fix there & when I return – hopefully be able to get my Fix soon ther after @ home. I have been craving this stuff since after Katrina. There is so much gone & lost, & there is so much new & different – but sometimes the oldies are the best. Yea Pancho’s for coming back to us, i know you will definatly be welcomed back appropriatly. You will also most likely be bombarded upon opening day, May you have lot’s of employees & food to welcome us all back. CANT WAIT…………….

Gross! Pancho’s is the worst food ever, Kudos to them that the company has down-sized over the years!They deserve it for serving the worst so-called Mexican Food! Yuuuuuuuck!
