When Rodney Anderson opened the doors to the first Panchero's restaurant in Iowa City in 1992, he knew that he was onto something. Guests watch as homemade dough-balls transform into perfectly pressed tortillas for their burritos in seconds. The freshness of the finished product is apparent just as much from taste as it is from touch, as Panchero's’ burritos are so structurally sound that they stand up on their own. Ten years later, Panchero's introduced “Bob” the tool, which perfectly blends the ingredients together before the burrito is rolled up, ensuring that the guest gets a perfect bite every time. With Bob's help, we've torn down the walls that once stood between meat and rice, between beans and salsa. Ingredients can now co-conspire as one. Bob has single-handedly revolutionized burrito building and eating, forever. After 25 years in business, Panchero's has grown from our humble beginnings as a college favorite in Iowa City, Iowa to over 69 restaurants in 12 states.
