    Pork Carnitas Tamales. Where's the meat?
    Clint W.

    I haven't been to Mi Ranchitos for years. I remember why. The food is so so. I've had way better Mexican food with way more meat. I always love anything with Carnitas. The tamales was mostly the masa and a sliver of meat.

    Jalisco Chimichang
    Mohamed M.

    I've visited Mi Ranchito several times, and I must say the food is really good. The service is commendable, and the atmosphere is acceptable. My absolute favorite is the Jalisco chimichanga - it's absolutely delicious! Overall, a satisfying experience.

    Chips & Espinaca queso
    Friday B.

    The food was pretty good. The salsa was nice and fresh and the chips were hot when we got them. We ordered espinaca queso, the chicken quesadilla appetizer, and a burrito feliz. Queso: It was honestly wayyy spicier than I expected. I wasn't able to eat very much of it. Also, there's a TON of spinach in it! Not a bad thing but just something to note. It was a fairly large bowl, too. We got a side of rice with it which was unfortunately really dry and undercooked. It also had corn in it and came with green onions on top. Quesadillas: They come with chicken, cheese, onions, and peppers, as well as guac and pico de gallo. They were nice and hot and had a good amount of cheese. It came with 4 pieces total. Burrito feliz: It's HUGE! It doesn't come with sides, but does have lots of cheese. The ground beef inside was well-seasoned and there was a good amount of it. The pork came in much larger pieces than expected, which was kind of off-putting so we didn't like that bit very much. Overall, a nice meal with some leftover to eat at home. Also, our waitress was AMAZING??? Her name was Claudia and she was so kind and attentive, definitely one of the best I've ever had. The restaurant itself was a bit loud, but nothing crazy. The music was an okay volume too. Overall, I'd recommend trying Mi Ranchito! They have a pretty large and diverse menu at a fairly reasonable price point. Along with everything I mentioned above, we also ordered a Pepsi and the total came out to just under $38 pre-tip.

    Strawberry margarita. So good. But I'm not even sure there was alcohol in it.

    Went early on a Saturday. There was plenty of space on the patio, which was great, as the weather was beautiful. We were seated right away. However, it took forever for us to be greeted. We asked for a drink menu, and she said she would bring it with waters. By that point, we had already been sitting for 10+ minutes. After 15, we flagged someone down and just ordered drinks. Throughout the whole night, the service was honestly awful. And SO slow. Our server wasn't even apologetic or anything. Another server that was training someone helped us most of the night. Also, I ordered TWO 20oz strawberry margaritas. They were delicious. But I swear the didn't even have tequila in them. Usually I'm buzzed after one small margarita, but I felt nada after drinking these. The food is amazing. But the service at this location sucks. And they don't seem to care, which is the worst part.

    Two margarita to start kinda day

    We've been to other locations in town but we drove by this one on Friday night and noticed open patio seating. Order margaritas which were very large and pretty good. Service was nice and at times efficient but mostly on the slow side. I order the La Grande Chimichanga and it was just ok but pretty bland, served sliced like it was a wrap at a sandwich shop. The black beans needed to be drained and rinsed prior to being stuffed into a chimichanga as they just made the whole thing taste like fried black bean residue. Chips served with salsa were solid but definitely request the spicy salsa as it's much better. Price was very good for two meals and two margaritas. I'd go back to try something else.

    Three stars is just about right. Nothing great being served up here. The atmosphere is nice but the food is forgettable.

    The worst customer service. Food is not worth it and the atmosphere looked like someone threw up in here.

    Never will I go back to this place. Food and drinks are overrated. Also, if you are friends of the manager you get seated right away.

The service was okay! Nothing super special but they answered questions and were helpful at the counter. This was our first time here so we ordered a few things to sample and share amongst ourselves. The first thing we had was the chips and queso, which I thought was a bit expensive at $7.99 but not too bad. The queso was fairly spicy but otherwise nothing special. I usually love queso so it surprised me how neutral I felt toward it! The chips were good, thin and light with a crispy bite to them. We unfortunately didn't get to try the salsa, noticing only at the end of our meal that there was a sauce bar near the counter! The birria tacos were also...okay. They were very juicy but not very uniquely flavored compared to everything else we tried. The meat was tender and I loved the texture of the tortilla, but didn't care for the massive handful of cilantro dropped on top of everything on the plate. The dipping liquid (birria sauce?) was alright! It was the same flavor as the tacos themselves so it didn't add much, but it definitely wasn't bad. The "main course" of what we ordered was a combo of soft chicken tacos, rice, and beans. The chicken tacos were unfortunately very cold by the time we got them which was a bit strange, as almost everything else was hot! They tasted good but I'm really not a fan of eating cold chicken, so I passed them off to my friends. The beans were just okay. There's really not much to say about them. The rice also left me disappointed! I typically devour Spanish rice. Not only was it cold, there were also odd, hard grains of rice mixed in. Not enough to get one every bite but enough that the experience of eating it was off-putting. It was also quite bland. Another note: While we were eating, there was this constant loud droning coming from the air conditioner. I'm a MASSIVE fan of air conditioning so I'm grateful it was on in the first place, but that is something they really need to get fixed. Two women seated near us actually got up and walked outside after commenting multiple times about how disturbing the noise was. My experience here was definitely a mixed bag but it leaned toward the positive, so we'll likely try them again! They had several other menu items I'd like to try, including some American fare that I found intriguing.

My #33 fajita burrito lunch ($11.99) included a nicely sized burrito packed with plenty of tasty, moist meat and fajita veggies. It also included okay portions of flavorful rice and beans along with a small salad and a small dessert. It was served just nine minutes after I ordered at the table, which gave me time to dig into the complimentary thin & crispy chips, salsa verde and mild, tasty salsa. I found the service to be stellar - attentive, cheerful, friendly and polite - nice! The beverage, chips and salsa refills kept coming. The spacious interior was clean and colorful with a main dining area, a secondary dining area and a bar area with more seating. I noticed Mexican background music and several TVs in the bar area. Parking in downtown OP is a free for all, so the lot in front of the restaurant was full before the restaurant opened. It's good that there were plenty of free parking lots and street parking nearby. Overall, very good!
