Portion sizes were VERY generous. I never saw a much an enormous burrito! I had an Alambre which I never heard of, but loved. The camerero was very nice & friendly but a little slow to greet & check on us, probably because of the day it was. Loved the look & feel of the restaurant. We ate inside since we had a newborn with us, and loved it. Will definitely return & recommend! I'm from South Florida so i have a lot to compare to.

The drinks and food was absolutely delicious. I had the Bahama Mama and my husband had the strawberry margarita - wow! It really hit the spot on a nice summer day! For our entree I had the El Jarisco - combination of steak, chicken and shrimp on a bed of rice. It was so flavorful and filling. My husband had the chimichunga and he inhaled it! So delicious! The service was friendly and we got our meal fairly quickly. Would definitely stopped by again! Highly recommended!

Where do you find food for a gluten free person and a vegetarian person in northern Minnesota? Good question. We stumbled upon Mi Ranchito Tanqueria in the heart of downtown Hinckley and we're greeted by the owners adorable kids. Currently, they only do orders to go which is totally fine (we ended up eating at a nearby park). The owner was so pleasant and helped us pick out meals according to our diets. I chose the tamales with a size of guac and chips. My friend got a bean and cheese quesadilla. We loved our meals! The tamales are excellent and the guac was super fresh. This place definitely deserves a good review on Yelp!

We had been camping for a couple weeks and just arrived to a nearby cabin for a few days. We ran to…read moretown for some groceries and just didn't want to cook. We saw this place and thought we'd stop in. So glad we did! As someone that doesn't eat meat, I was happy to see a section for vegetarians and I didn't have to order something "without meat". I ordered veggie fajitas. My son said his enchiladas were like his favorite back home and the other ordered a shrimp dish. He had a hard time figuring out how to eat it, LOL, and I'm no help, but he said it was delicious. The servings were very generous and I had another meal out of mine to heat up at home later. I had ordered a "cadillac" margarita with no salt and got a big margarita with salt. The server brought it back and another one was re-made for me. It may have been the owner behind the bar, not sure, but I was appreciative that they made a new drink and didn't pour it out over the salt into a new glass. I never understand why bartenders think that's ok if you don't want salt. He then delivered it to me personally. I'm not sure there was any grand marnier in it, but it was delicious and appreciate the service! I'd recommend this place to anyone in the area. They seem to know the regulars, treated us out of towners kindly, and it's very clean! Great food and portions too!

I'm spoiled by southern California and Arizona Mexican food. El Jalisco offers a taste of Mexican food you ought to try. The food is fantastic, prices are decent and the atmosphere is relaxing.

Burritos you can't go wrong with, they're very good. They also have a kids menu if you have little ones. If it's busy, be patient. And be kind.

The refried beans in my burrito bowl were cold, which I didn't appreciate. But everything else was good. I like the variety of beverages too. (A lot of food trucks skimp on this.) I grabbed a Jarritos guava flavored soda. After I left, I wished I had tried the interesting Manzanita Sol apple flavored soda. I'll definitely grab one of those next time. This is a family run operation and everyone was very friendly. I always favor a family owned business versus a big corporate place. This isn't a food truck that I'd seek out. But it hits the spot if you're in the area and in the mood for some savory Mexican style food. And it's definitely a great choice if you're very hungry. -Maxx
