    Tasty Flautas with beans and rice
    Jingle M.

    I LOVE EL RANCHO! Just one big happy family serving up the best enchiladas, tacos, fajitas and flautas. The siblings laugh with you and totally remember your past orders, service with a smile. Chips and salsa appear before you get your coat off! Dig in and leave happy from this happy place. Always a stop in Marshall!

    line was out the door at 6:00 but by 6:30 i walked in and was seated immediately. The staff are very friendly and didnt mind when inasked for another minute with the menu. I got started with a large beer on tap and was blown away at the mug, beaty is an understatement. Then I ordered the steak enchiladas with a side of guacamole. Before i got even halfway through my beer it was before me hot and ready. I kept a steady pace to finish my meal and was thanked many times before I left the door. Amazing service, great people, great for the family or just working out of town. Would recommend.

    In town for business, looking for a spot for supper and popped in. Friendly waiter, asked what was good and he asked if he could surprise me. Always love that! Brought out a plate with shrimp, steak and chicken on a bed of rice topped with Lettuce, Pico and a sauce. Delicious! Fresh and light, a nice twist on my usual fajitas! A lot of local spanish speaking patrons, always a good sign! Only drawback was the rolling carts to serve food and clear tables, noisy and distracting. But worth the stop!

    Huge shout to the staff of El Rancho! Great food, great service with a % going to a great cause! Marshall and the surrounding community are so fortunate to have a business like this with such commitment to our area! Thanks! Will definitely be back!

    Great food on big plates! You get what you pay for. Authentic decor everywhere and ambience is lively with the music. Quite spacious however the chairs are a tight squeeze. Bathrooms are a tight fit. I jad the Pallo de Crema which was good and a daiquri which helped. Not to mention some of the waiters are cuuute! ;)

    It's.....ok. No immediate greeting. I waited for at least 2 minutes to be seated. Right up to that point where it's gotten uncomfortable and other diners are noticing. The inside is not overly clean. Fixtures are old. The service is mannered but overly stiff and unfriendly. The price is reasonable. The chips from the warm up chips and salsa tasted old. The burrito had a good presentation and was pretty good, but by this time it was too late to save the overall visit.

    Good Mexican chatchka with Mexican guitar music playing in the background. A good stop on our way through town.

    I was a little Larry walking in because I felt this wasn't even a restaurant at first. It looked…read moremore like a grocery store. The people behind the counter kind of looked at me funny but I really wanted some good authentic Mexican food. I figured with four stars it must not be too bad. I ask the young lady if this was the Mexican restaurant and she led me to a table. She set me down and I asked for water with lemon a few minutes later she brought me water with lime LOL it was good though! I like lime as well. I was assuming there was a bit of a communication gap between us. I am however, trying to learn Spanish. She brought me chips and salsa the chips for a tad stale and the salsa had way too much cilantro in it for my liking. But I completely distain cilantro so I am a bad opinion on their salsa. When I asked for guacamole she brought me a bowl and luckily there was no cilantro in it. It was one of the best guacs I've had at any restaurant! It only took about 15 minutes to get my burrito. I'm not gonna lie when she brought it to me, it looked more like a sandwich wrap ‍not at all what I was expecting. I'm not gonna lie though it was by far one of the best burritos I've ever eaten. So big I could only eat half of it but it reheated nicely the next day!! I'll be back for sure

    Food was okay. The waiter was a little busy but very nice. Out of his control. Thank you !!read more

    My friend and I often use this as our meeting spot since she lives near Brookings and I'm in Sioux…read moreFalls. We are always greeted by their friendly staff immediately upon walking in. The chips and salsa are spot-on and the food is always fast to come out, steaming hot, and tasty. It's a pretty big place with dining available on two sides. Definitely scope it out if you're near Dells (or even within 20 miles!)

    While passing through Dell Rapids during one of our little road trip adventures, my husband and I…read morestumbled upon this restaurant and decided to stop in and give it a try. One thing that immediately caught our attention was the building itself. Dell Rapids has a great deal of historic charm, and the restaurant is housed inside one of the town's older historic structures, which gives it a lot of personality before you even sit down. The atmosphere carries some of that preserved small-town character that makes these Midwest road trip discoveries enjoyable in the first place. The presentation of the food was honestly quite beautiful. The plating was polished, colorful, and thoughtfully arranged in a way that immediately raised our expectations. The dishes looked refined and carefully constructed, almost the sort of meals that make you instinctively reach for your phone to take photos before eating. Unfortunately, the actual flavors never really lived up to the visual presentation. That was the biggest disappointment for us. While everything looked appealing, most of the dishes wound up tasting fairly flat and underwhelming. Nothing was outright terrible, but very little had the depth, seasoning, or distinctiveness we were hoping for once we actually began eating. Service throughout the meal was decent enough, though the restaurant seemed somewhat overwhelmed at the time. There was a very large and extremely loud Friday gathering taking up much of the dining room and seemingly most of the staff's attention. It also appeared they may have been somewhat understaffed that afternoon, which likely contributed to the slower pacing and divided attention. Overall, the experience landed somewhere between average and slightly disappointing for us. Not actively bad, but not especially memorable either. The historic setting and attractive presentation certainly added points, but ultimately we left feeling underwhelmed by the food itself.
