We've been in the area for 6 months now but we started eating here years before! Food is always…read moregreat & it hits the table quickly! Service is always good, too. Staff are friendly, hard working & fast! The vibe here varies on the night & staff working but you can be sure that when the Manager is working, it's going to be crowded and there will be plenty of "whoop whoops" and laughter echoing throughout the restaurant. Stuart doesn't have many restaurants but at El Rancho you'll get dinner and be entertained. It's definitely worth the price and your time to stop by and dine in. My favorite is the Fajitas Texanos & hubs typically gets Nachos Supreme. We've never been disappointed with our food. Prices may vary from Menu Pics ( posted years ago) but every restaurant and business has had to raise prices since the pandemic. FYI: Entrance can get congested because they stay pretty busy at the register with customers paying and picking up their To Go orders!

They were very busy, but the staff teamed up to ensure drinks were delivered, plates served and tables bussed. The ever changing menu and rotating taps make each visit unique and awesome. I don't love the (too) high bench along the wall but it's a great idea and space saver. P&A is always a home run when we visit!

Great lil' country cooking restaurant in Stuart…read more.. We were in town for my wife's grandma's 90th birthday... We stopped in with 12 people for dinner and it was great time. The service was fast and friendly, the food was made with that "southern love", the owner was a super nice guy (he's apparently the town mayor too). It's family owned places like that there aren't enough of anymore... Glad we stopped by and we'll definitely be back when in town again.

I quickly checked to see what was on the menu since it had been a while since I had eaten here. Ta-dah, my fave sandwich! Yes!!! Everything was so incredibly delicious and while I initially said I would save half the sandwich for lunch the next day I made an absolute glutton of myself and ate it all and was pleasantly miserable afterwards. I had also gotten local blueberry peach cobbler from the menu but that had to wait for breakfast the next day! Make sure you always check the Facebook page for this place because he is no longer in Meadows of Dan and sometimes even takes the show on the road. Hours can be a little sporadic but if you can time it right you will not regret it.

The interior is rustic and comfortable. Service was very friendly and kind. Maybe not the speediest but one person was taking care of the whole dining room so I understand. I ordered a sweet tea, hot dog with chili, mustard, and slaw, and buffalo chips with ranch. If you like sweet tea that leaves a little film on your teeth, this is the place for you! The hot dog was pretty good. The buffalo chips were delicious. A tasty meal all in all. The restaurant is cash only but they can give you a receipt to pay in the convenience store section with a card. Super simple. Harold's is a good place to stop and grab a bite if you're in the area.

Restaurant was clean. We were the only dine in customers. Phone was ringing non-stop & staff just walked around like they did not hear it. Bar had a few customers & bartender was very friendly and attentive. Not sure we will ever go for pizza again but maybe we will go to bar & get appetizers in the future. Great TVs in bar area.
