El Ranchito - Veggie Quesadilla! It comes with a side of beans as well, but I chose not to have them. It's a lot of food.... - Mexican Near Me - Enumclaw, Washington

We went here on Easter day and it was crowded with only two servers working...despite that, food was awesome and excellent service. We ordered Al ambre and steak Mexicana. Finally Flan for dessert. that was phenomenal with whipped cream anr cherry on top. I was so full after the meal. Couldn't walk to the car Besides that they also have a pretty affordable drink menu. I ordered a virgin pina colada and my boyfriend friend ordered a jumbo margarita. Look how huge it is. definitely recommend this to others. read more

When we take our daughter to dinner this is where we go. This is her favorite place to go. The food is good and the prices are reasonable. The service is good and the waitress knows what my daughter wants before she says anything. This is a hopping Mexican decoded restaurant with a good atmosphere. We will be back again, and again. read more

Amazing food and beautiful restaurant. Staff is super sweet and nice. The food is incredible, the food has so many flavors and the chicken fajitas was juicy and delicious! The shrimp/prawns didn't have a fishy taste and were super good! read more

When my family and I pulled up I wanted to leave, this restaurant is connected to a hotel and I just wasn't feeling it but im rating it 5 stars cuz it was so much more then what I expected. I fell in love with the salsa, and maybe it's because I just finished a day paddle boarding at Nolte State Park so I was hungry, but everything tasted so fresh and so perfectly hot and cheesy. Service was wonderful and quick, the decor was classic themed and brightly colored. My family and I had a wonderful lunch. 100% coming back :) read more

High marks for colorful decor. Our waiter was attentive. Food was good, but not impressive.

One of our friends suggested this place for our double date margarita night and everyone seemed disappointed except me. The place is located inside an inn. Yelp states that this location is open until 11 pm but they are actually only open until 9 pm on a Friday night. When we arrived, they were able to seat us immediately. The menu is pretty lengthy. They have specialty mexican and american food, but more mexican specialty than american. My fiance and our friends ended up ordering margaritas while i ordered a pina colada. The pina colada tasted more like a smoothie. One of our friends ordered a Strawberry Margarita blended and she noted that it was like a slushie. Our other friend ordered a plain margarita and noted that there was much more ice than the margarita itself. My fiance ordered the Strawberry Margarita as well and noted that it wasnt as fruity as he had expected. Besides the alcohol disappointment, everyone except me, seemed disappointed in their food. My fiance and I ordered the Huevos con Chorizo while our friends ordered the Carne Asada Taco Salad and Tacos Al Pastor. The one that ordered the salad ended up finishing his while his wife didnt. She thought the tacos lacked flavor. The husband who ordered the salad said that it tasted bland and was just typical salad with chips, but he didnt mind his meal. My fiance thought that the chorizo was flavorful. I loved the chorizo as well. With the mix of eggs it just tasted so interesting. He just didnt care for the flour tortillas nor the sides of rice or beans as he said its nothing special. I just loved mixing it all into the tortilla. Staff was sweet and didnt mind us staying until close to catch up. They let us be for the most part until they dimmed the lights and it was our time to go. Overall, nobody says they will come back. I think i might just grab lunch for myself one of these days. I was honestly impressed. read more

Stopped by for a late lunch. Their restaurant is located inside the GH (Guesthouse) hotel. Service was outstanding as there wasn't too many guests at the time. From what I could see they have an upper floor dining area that might be used for larger parties. Otherwise, their dining room is full of colorful decorated tables and chairs. I had their taco and enchilada combo. Their ground beef lacked spices and flavor. However, adding their house salsa was their true savior. Without it, it would've been quite bland. read more

El Ranchito - Beef taco and beef enchilada lunch combo. - Mexican Near Me - Enumclaw, Washington

We came in right at 12. When they opened. We were sat pretty fast. We had our baby with us. I had to wonder around for a high chair. Instead of one being brought to us or being told where I can find one. When the waitress came by. We placed our order and as I'm still ordering she starts walking away. I had to flag her down to complete my order. I asked for plain chicken and tortillas for my 10 month old. They brought out my wife's drink. And only tortillas. No water. Water finally comes. Tortillas come. No chicken. Had to ask again. Our meals come out. No chicken. Asked again for chicken. Waited a while. No chicken. When they top off the water I had to ask again for plain chicken. She brings out chicken they used for their enchiladas. Whatever. Then I had to ask 3 times for the check and to be cashed out. Horrible horrible horrible service. Will not be back. Went in for Mother's Day. You ruined her lunch. Maybe you should have more than 2 people working on a major holiday. read more

Best Shredded beef Tostada I've ever had! Very generous amount of beef, fresh crispy lettuce with plenty sour cream and guacamole. Also the best Pico de gallo I've ever had! We ate there two days in a row! Mmmm! read more

We went in for some seafood soup, ceviche and agua chile. They were all great and was very accommodating with with having a one year old.

We were looking for some carbs after snowboarding at Crystal Mountain and found this place on Yelp. Pros: Clean Friendly staff Yummy food Prompt service Didn't wait, but if we had to, there was space inside the lobby without having to stand in the cold. Cons: Nothing! Recommend if you're looking for a clean and warm place to eat! read more

This restaurant is located inside the hotel in downtown, and when you walk in, you get a huge whiff of old, wet man smell. I was really turned off by the smell and hoped it was a fluke, but when I went out to the lobby for the bathroom and came back in, the same smell persisted. The restaurant itself is your Americanized Mexican restaurant with the decorations and bright colors and whatnot. Our server was very nice and the food came out quickly. Portions were indeed large and the food itself wasn't bad. My husband's Chile relleno had the tiniest Chile inside, which was a bummer. My flautas were supposed to be beef but I got chicken and decided to eat them anyhow. Largest flautas I've ever had! Rice and beans were ok but kind of bland, however my husband praised the michelada. read more

First time here. Cute place, way better than expected for being inside a hotel entrance. No wait at 5:30 on a Saturday, food was excellent, salsa had some kick, service was good. Husband says carne asada was one of the best he's had, pollo asada was also really good. read more

This is where the addiction for Mexican food all began!!! I have to be honest...we eat here ALOT. No matter what day or time we have never experienced a bad meal. We all definitely have our favorites....mine is the steak/chicken fajitas with flour tortillas. The wife is all about the arroz con pollo & my oldest sticks with the chicken enchilada. Every time they are ordered they are just as good as the last time. One of my favorites is the fact that they have negra modela ON TAP!!!! The atmosphere is always fantastic & they are all beyond friendly. We are treated like family & everyone there goes out of our way to give my youngest (10mo) extra attention. The only reason for the 1-Star deduction is due to the fact that recently (the last month or so) the time it takes to get our food after ordering has become longer & longer. Other than that there are definitely no complaints here as we will continue to eat here on a regular basis. read more

Staff was very friendly and attentive. We got our water, chips, salsa, bean dip, and pick de Gallo ASAP. They checked on us frequently until we were ready to order. Our food came fast and looked yummy. I would have preferred less melted cheese but I forgot to ask. Food was good not great. A bit bland but piping hot. Overall I'd say it was good food for Enumclaw and if you're in Eden go and you want Mexican and then go here I think you'll be happy it was really brightly colored inside which was cool too. When they brought us our platter we had forgot to ask about if they use the lard in their beans which they do and they brought us a separate plate of whole beans without us even having to ask which was nice. We got our check we also each got our tortilla chip size soap Apia that had a little bit of syrup drizzled on it and some whip cream so it's a nice little dessert. read more

Delicious food and very kind staff! Clean place. I'm surprised it's not more busy when we go!

This is by far the best Mexican food ever. I order a enchilada w/ rice and beans, while my husband prefers #13, 2 chicken burritos w/rice and beans. Food is always served hot, Service is great, and they have a clean atmosphere!! Love it!!! read more

Came here with a friend who's lactose intolerant after a day up on the mountain, the person greeting us was very friendly and quickly got us a table, after that things just didn't go well. Our waitress was slow, rude and got our orders wrong. I hate complaining in restaurants! But when you ask specifically for an ingredient to be removed due to an allergy it's important (cheese). After asking for a replacement meal without cheese we got attitude in return. We did get that meal replaced but this experience was not pleasant. My food was good, and I did enjoy the chips and salsa. Negative points only for our server that night. read more

WOW.. Stopped in to get something to eat while wife's car was being looked at down the street. It wasn't busy by any means only about 5 other tables with people. I was seated right away and asked if I would like a drink. Of course I said yes.. Asked for Gold margarita. Within mins was brought my drink and chips and not only salsa but refried beans and a tomato cabbage salsa. Margarita wasn't in a 8 Oz glass like some places and actually could taste the Tequila in it... I ordered the carne asada and it was extremely good. I'll definitely be back. read more

El Ranchito - Mexican Near Me - Enumclaw, Washington

Not really many restaurants to choose from out in the claw, this one is inside of a hotel & the food was just as good as any other tex-mex place you go to. Service was good, we had a large group & had reservations & everything was set up for us when we arrived. Seating area is pretty small, but manageable. We were served our drinks quickly & the food probably 15-20 minutes after ordering, which with a group of 5+ that was pretty good. I had the chicken fajitas & split it with someone & we still couldn't finish. Portion sizes are huge, but they typically are at any Mexican joint you go to. I'll definitely be back if I need to find a place to eat out in Enumclaw. If you're out that way, stop here. It's not too hard to find (its in the only none dumpy hotel they have in town). read more

This is really good Mexican food. My new favorite is the fajita taco salad - it has so many delicious veggies, and mushrooms! A first for Mexican food - but it goes! Their pico is different than any others I've had but it rocks. I could eat tubs of it. The have great costumer service and I'm glad we have such awesome Mexican food so close. Their portions are also large. The only I haven't loved is the shredded chicken but otherwise it's all good. Give it a try! read more

Standard "American Mexican" food. If you want real Mexican food, go elsewhere. If you've been to Azteca and liked it, you'll like this spot. They have Negra Modelo on draft which is great. We liked the Chili Releno, but most of that flavor came from the actual pepper. Food was rather bland and not very interesting. No hot sauce on our table, had to ask for it. large plates of food, lots of cheese, I assume most of the food comes out of big cans. This is in Enumclaw, so I gave it 4 stars, in Seattle I'd give it a 3. read more

The food is excellent and even though you get Americanized version of Mexican food (just like anywhere else in WA), you do get some options on the menu here that are not as common in other Mexican restaurants in the States - for example Tamales. Very good by the way! I am a vegetarian and I have to say that typically I do not struggle to find something to eat in restaurants but I also normally do not have as many options. Nevertheless, here I never know what to choose because their vegetarian selection is great and everything I have tried so far was so good! My favorite is their fajitas or spinach burrito. Their guacamole is delicious too! Sames goes for Margaritas. And I also love that at the end, they bring you a little dessert on the house. Overall, this place is awesome and I would definitely be here more often if I lived nearby. Great quality food for low prices and the service is always super friendly&fast. Exactly, what you are looking for when returning from skiing or hiking. Salud! read more

We got there early. Wasn't busy. Took a few minutes to seat us. Took a while before they took our order. Took a long time before we got our food. We had one small basket of chips. Didn't get offered any more. Pico de Gallo was tasteless. The table of 8 next to us also got one small basket of chips. Son ate mealy, previously frozen fries. Chicken enchilada sauce was meh. DIdn't really even taste like chicken. Not sure if the refried beans were canned. They tasted completely blah but a few of them were kind of crunchy. Husband said the vegetarian quesadilla was pretty decent. Nobody refilled pops or water. Husband resorted to pirating my water. After we finished eating, we waited on churros. By now it WAS busy. Then we waited more. Then a bit more. Then the cold, soggy inside churros finally arrived. Those tasted kind of like bad pancakes. I've had worse food, but it wasn't great and it took beyond forever. I have no idea why this place was busy, other than nobody was really getting much food. read more

What a nice surprise inside a motel entrance! We were greeted promptly, seated and soon had our drink order taken and bean dip, pico de gallo, salsa and chips arrived. Wow! We ordered shortly thereafter and our food arrived pronto. I had chicken fajita and he had 2 chimichangas . We were both very satisfied with flavor and serving size for the cost and overall experience, we'll definitely be back. read more

When we eat there, we always receive great service and great food. Try the spinach veggie burrito, you won't be disappointed!

Never a bad choice. Best Mexican you can find. Great food good drinks and really nice people.

I don't know what's is up with that waitress but she is just to fast, we couldn't even enjoy our food not to mention she split hot grease on my aunts pants and didn't even care. When we all left the manager plus three other servers watched us leave at the host stand and didn't say anything back when we told them have a good night. read more

Wanted to fill up before our concert at White River Amphitheatre. El Ranchito is located at the hotel we stayed at-Guesthouse in Enumclaw. Bonus is you get 10% off your meal bill when staying at the hotel. Since it was early, we got seated quickly. The margaritas were spot on- perfect amount of orange juice, mix and tequila. Large drinks at a reasonable price. I ordered the Chicken En Mole dinner special. Just the way I like a true mole- sweet with a little heat. Comes with rice, beans, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes and your choice of corn or flour tortillas. I chose corn. I put a little of everything from my plate into the tortilla and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. And the dish was not overloaded with cheese as many of the other reviewers commented on. Since they don't seem to serve pork here, he ordered the Beef Carnitas- they were not so good. The meat was over cooked and a little dry. Luckily all the veggies along with the refried beans, guacamole, shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes helped a bit. He had the flour tortillas and they tasted fresh and not from a package. We did have a second round of the yummy margaritas. They service was great. Only let down was the beef. read more

We special order a whole "veggie" bean and rice burrito with burrito sauce and cheese with a side of guacamole and sour cream. It's the best. For those avoiding pork refried beans have lard which is pork fat so the clean alternative is the vegetarian whole beans which they gladly substitute. The photo is half to go. Super huge. read more

We found this place on YELP and decided to try them. We were pleasantly surprised! It's located in the GH Guesthouse. It has a pleasant ambiance and the plates are very generous servings. The chips n Salsa were really good! I had the Combination plate w/Chimichanga & Enchilada. My favs were the Whole Beans & side of Guacamole. The Chimi had lots of chicken in it & the flavor of the ground beef enchilada was very tasty. My bf had the Sopitos. These were delicious and had lots of chicken also. We had to ask for a to go box. The Server lady was very pleasant & good. All in all we decided we will go back in the future. read more

.we came here today after our hike. We ordered fajitas for 2 with chicken and shrimps. The quantity of chicken and shrimps it was so small we were overwhelmed with onions and green bell peppers. The guacamole had some black from the avocado which tells me it was old. I personally wont come here anymore!!!! I felt like if we ordered onions and green bell peppers fajitas .... The only good here was our waitress which was very attentive and nice and thats the reason I did not complain because she was very sweet and I didn't want to give her a hard time .Choose another Mexican restaurant if u can!!! read more
