    Chilaquiles, Verde
    Tamara A.

    Delicious!!! I fell in love with this place while visiting my grandma's. I went back several times and will always go back whenever I'm down. The food is flavorful, spicy, and just damn good. I've tried the: chilaquiles (A++), tacos (A+), burrito (A+) and tamales (which I'm not a fan of in general so I won't rate it). Over all good atmosphere, clean, and wonderful folks.

    Love it. Love it. Love it. This spot is indeed a ¨gem¨. Authentic Mexican Food Made With Care. Best Tacos and Burritos in Rocky Mount. They have all your favorite Mexican classics. Everything is freshly made to order. My favorite dish there is chilaquiles verdes. Highly Recommended.

    Taco!!!!

    Amazing tacos!! Real tacos!! Beef, chicken, pork, bbq... all amazing. They have other things too. It's all so good and you can't beat the prices. A must try!

    Ordered 3 tacos... 2 carnitas (pork) and one chicken. Came with radish, onion and cilantro. So genuine in taste, awesome seasoning.

    Hands down the best tacos in Rocky Mount. It's a small place but the food is outstanding.

    Such awesome food- on our way to Virginia from Florida and looking for some good food close to the Tesla supercharger- this was about a 5 minute drive.

    Ok there is ALOT of Mexican restaurants in the area but we been here twice and let me tell you, SAY…read moreNO MORE!! La Rancherita is the best! Came here for lunch twice and requested specific drinks and they were on point! We ordered: Regular Margarita not to sweet and with Mescal (gotta try it) first time we tried two types of tacos steak and chicken. Second time around we had the: shrimp ceviche and the ultimate Nachos. One TIP: if you dont like sweet tell them to put the agave chipotle sauce on the side ;) Service is on point and everyone works well together. You get alot of customers here place is always busy and food comes out QUICK! great job guys! Joel is the best! Will def be back! Thank you!!

    Too loud! Excellent food!…read more Friday 4pm. The music levels are just too loud per my decibel reader app. I barely could hear any of the wait staff the whole time upon entering and leaving. The chicken Morralito was Excellent! Great flavors and presentation. I would recommend ordering this. I took a chance and glad I tried something different. The salsa is very good! Service was very prompt and friendly. Even the waitress had a hard time hearing me when they suddenly turned up the music even louder half way through our dinner. Please guys! Turn it down! As our favorite Mexican restaurant, I'd give this place a 5 stars and eat here more often but the noise level was too much to handle.
