First time dining here. The chicken fajitas were tasty and flavorful Yummy 😋.Wish they could be more generous with the side dips and sauces. The mix platter was also good and love the variety except for the fries. It was tasty but not sure why it was included since it’s a Mexican restaurant. 🤔. Maybe because of the cost ? The oglio olio was disappointing. Super blend and “tasteless” especially compared to the other Mexican food. Overall, it was good dining experience especially if you feel like eating Mexican food but it’s on a pricier side. Ambience wise was comfortable and great as the tables was not closed to each 😊 👍

Sanchos Taqueria is owned and operated by the Katrina Group. Founded in 1995 by CEO Alan Goh, the Katrina Group is a major F&B lifestyle powerhouse in Singapore and has been listed on the Catalist board of the Singapore Exchange since 2016. Sister Brands: If you dine out frequently in Singapore, you have likely eaten at their other establishments. Sanchos Taqueria shares a corporate umbrella with massive local chains like Bali Thai, So Pho, Streats, and Daily Beer. 🌮 The "Taqueria" Concept Evolution A Strategic Spin-Off: The Paragon location is specifically billed as the "newest addition to the Sanchos family". It was born from the heart of the main Sanchos brand but deliberately adapted into a "taqueria" format. Targeting the Mallgoer: While a full-scale Mexican restaurant requires a massive footprint, this taqueria format was specifically designed to bring a casual, fast-paced vibe that is perfect for Orchard Road mallgoers craving authentic Mexican street food without the lengthy sit-down time. The Spatial Vibe & Architectural Contrast A Vibrant Threshold: Unlike the heavy stone, polished glass, and muted tones of the luxury fashion houses on the upper floors, Sanchos Taqueria utilizes a highly vibrant, casual aesthetic. Your photos highlight a space designed to immediately signal "fun and accessible" to passing mallgoers. Casual Dining Layout: The interior is optimized for quick, communal dining rather than lingering luxury. The seating arrangement is functional and dense, designed to accommodate the fast-paced flow of Basement 1 shoppers looking for a quick bite (though, as some local reviews note, the compact layout can make it a bit of a tight squeeze for larger families). Colorful Accents: The brand is known for spaces where "every corner oozes color," moving away from Paragon's standard minimalist palette to embrace bright, eye-catching hues and warm, inviting lighting that reflects a street-food culture. 🌯 The Culinary Footprint (A Unique Niche) Beyond the interior design, this space occupies a highly specific and important culinary niche within Orchard Road: Halal-Certified Mexican: It is a fully Halal-certified establishment, meaning there is zero pork on the menu. This makes it a vital destination for Muslim diners seeking authentic Mexican street food within the premier shopping district. Signature Offerings: The kitchen focuses on heavy, flavorful comfort food. They are particularly famous for their sizzling Prawn and Beef Fajitas, Bang Bang Prawn Tacos (which offer a lighter, refreshing kick), and unique fusion items like Pambazo Burgers (where the bread is soaked, fried, and stuffed) and Taco Minestrone.

The Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos is good. No smiling servers. No one asks if food is ok. Service can be improved. I also find it weird that the taco was seeved in a plastic container without any food paper lining.
