    This was a very good place to eat. I was out of town and my friends and I decided to stay here, it was a blast. We spent talking to the chef for a long time. The staff is super friendly. I wish I can come back next time I come here. Tbh there best food I had in a while.

    Chef Mauricio, my 11 year old son beat me to the punch! Ha ha! He was so excited about his food and the great experience we had at your restaurant, that he got a hold of my phone and wrote the review above before I had the chance to do it! But his words were right on point! Thank you for your hospitality and the very tasty food and treats! We had a wonderful time! Hope to come back soon. :)

    Very disappointing customer service experience. I had ordered two fountain drinks but my daughter decided she didn't want a fountain drink but water. I tried to get a refund on one of the drink's (never used). The young lady who initially help us had to speak with the other girl in charge. The other girl charge body language and the snickering were unprofessional about my request.

    FYI, not about the money but the principle on how it was handled.

    Came here for taco Tuesday!!!!!

    They were nice enough to give us chips!

    Ordered:
    -3 carnitas tacos.  Topped w cilantro, onion and a sprinke of lime.  Taste was ok.  Not as flavorful as I had hoped for.

    -3 chicken tacos topped w lettuce, tomato, and cheese.  

    -Grilled salmon/snapper taco topped w shredded cabbage, tomato, and lots of white sauce.  White sauce dominated the flavor.  It's a good sauce.  But less would be definitely more in this case.  Fish seems to have a teriyaki sauce.

    Service was great.  Food was ok.

    I had the lobster enchilada and fish taco combo.  The fish taco, was crispy and fresh.  The lobster enchilada... the lobster was tender and sweet- perfect.
    The staff was super friendly and helpful.

    Love Mi Ranchito! Large portion sizes, with a generous amount of chips and unlimited salsa, jalapeños and pickled carrots. If you are looking for something fresh, quick and well worth your money I would recommend this restaurant!
