This place makes the best-grilled veggie quesadilla ever!!! The best salsas ever!! Add a side of black beans and the tastiest vegetarian meal around! Whenever I come here from Encinitas I always come here.

This is not only the motto of Pachanga Mexican Grill but is a way of life. Our goal is to provide each customer delicious Mexican food that is quick, and more importantly, delicious. Pachanga has been serving delicious fresh-mex food in a friendly neighborhood atmosphere since 1994. We always start with the freshest ingredients so the flavors literally burst in your mouth when you taste any of our delicious tacos, burritos, enchiladas or tostadas . We take great pride in the preparation of each meal. Chicken and carne asada are trimmed, marinated overnight in fruit juices with secret seasonings then charbroiled. Our carnitas is cooked in it’s own juice till tender and tasty. We know it’s the best you’ll find. Fresh produce is an integral element to our fabulous flavors. In one of our variety of salads or as part of a Seven Veggie Quesadilla, you’ll discover just how much you enjoy vegetables. We have several choices that will delight vegetarians. Our salsa bar features distinctive roasted salsas, made fresh each day. Whether you choose a mild salsa to accentuate your meal or something a little spicier we have a salsa to match any taste. Be sure to try the Salsa Fresca, our version of a Pico de Gallo. It has become a favorite of the locals and can be used in a variety of ways. In Manhattan Beach you are never very far from a great meal at a great price.
