Pollo Ranchero on 1st in Santa Ana is good and does not disappoint. Today we had menudo (sin grano) and chili verde. Menudo was good however they don't add grano for us lacked a little flavor but honestly it beats out most menudo spots. Now for me the star of our meal was the chili verde...this meat was chunky, tender, and flavor-the chili was filled with flavor and spice (perfect heat level). Not to mention, yes the tortillas made with lots of love. Our waitress was helpful and patient- service with a smile that will bring you back! Parking can be tight but accessible. One huge recommendation that would bring in a variety of people....restaurant needs a deep cleaning - vents, fans, window ledges, outside areas which will attract many others. Enjoy this spot ....we will be back! read more

Best food ever! They're menudo is bomb! Especially with the homemade tortillas, chips and beans!! Chilaquiles are also really good!

This place has so much to offer. You get chips and salsa with amazing beans, my favorite cafe de olla and Gorditas! I don't know how authentic it is, since I am Japanese, but to me, it's as authentic as you get in outside of Mexico. I can't wait to try more dishes!!! read more

This place did used to be good. The food is ok but the service from the waitresses is horrible. I don't understand how the owner doesn't read this reviews or he just doesn't give a fuck!! I used to be a regular, stopped by after work a few times, and then one day I stopped by with my Mom after a meeting, I looked very professional and looked pretty. None of the waitresses helped us or asked if we needed anything. One of them was a complete BITCH and kept staring at me which made my Mom very upset and uncomfortable. I called for help and she totally ignored us. Never went back to this place!! She must be the owners side bitch since he doesn't do anything to improve her customer service skilled. She must have better skills outside the restaurant I'm sure!!!! Sorry for the wife, she is nice but she is not always there, just be aware of your employees!!!! read more

There menudo is bomb! We don't eat it any other place! The only thing I dislike is the time of opening ( too late). read more

Their dishes taste authentic and super homey, I love it. And their service was great didn't wait to long!

Amazing food and service, highly recommend, best Mexican food in Santa Ana for me. Tortillas are delicious, Chile verde was tender and flavorful, also tried the carne asada Gordita, which I enjoyed a lot and would get again. Can't wait to try more. read more

This place is so goddamn good Jesus Christ. Checked in for the first time today even though I've been here 10 times. The sope tastes exactly like Native American bread. read more

Pollo Ranchero Restaurant - Sope de asada - Mexican Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Im a regular at pollo ranchero for the menudo on Sundays. I usually go with family on Sundays but after the last two visits and I've been disappointed with their menudo, it's not like it used to be. It's tastes water-down and flavorless. I usually go with a group of 10/12 on Sundays and spend about $250. I remember the last time I was there I waiting for the check to be processed, which took a long time since they only have one cash register. A waitress comes over to the table and tell us we need to leave because people are waiting on our table, In a very rude manner. I told, her that I'm waiting for my credit card, and that's why we are still here waiting on. For these reasons, I won't be back. Since your food and service went from 10 to a 0, I won't be back. read more

Great food if you are nearby! Extremely high quality. Probably top 3 Mexican food I've had in Orange county!

I love the way this place has fresh handmade tortillas. Its one of a few places that I've gone to that make it this way. The tortillas are so delicious, you would think they were flour! Anyways, this place isn't fancy but the food is good. I will definitely return to try out other dishes. It was a nice place to have a quick lunch. The pork in the Chili Verde is tender. The tacos al pastor and carne asada were good. If you havent tried this place out, try it one day. If you like this review, please let me know. Have a good day. read more

Came in around 10:30am and there was already a wait to be seated. Once sat they truly have speedy service took 2-4 minutes for items to be brought out. Half of my party had the menudo which was delicious according to my mother and others in my party had asada tacos and they were so flavorful. I had the alpastor burrito man that was HUGE!!! But so flavorful. I absolutely loved it. And I'm quite picky when it comes to the meat. The best part was the cafe de olla, coffee from a pot, I wanted a pot full lol it's the traditional black coffee with cinnamon. You don't need any more sugar nor creamer it's perfect as it is. Can't wait to go back and try other items!! 5 star service & 5 star food!!! read more

Best cafe de olla in town. Menudo sat and Sunday. Hand made tortillas every day. Soooo delicious!!!!

The coffee is to die for....food is delicious. Good original Mexican food with great prices. Staff is friendly and food comes out quickly. Everything is fresh. Did I say the coffee is great!!! read more

This place has the best menudo I've ever had at a restaurant. It's clean and less fatty than other places. It's served with handmade tortillas and you get chips, re-fried beans and salsa. Delicious!!! They have other things on the menu as well, which will not disappoint. My hubby ordered a carne asada torta and it was AMAZING! It had beans, queso fresco, and lots of avocado. We also ordered a chorizo and papa sope and it was delicious! Yes, it's located in the heart of Santa Ana and it's a hole in the wall, but don't let this deceive you! The food is excellent. Come with an open mind and a hungry stomach because you'll want to order everything! read more

5 stars for the ceviche! They make it fresh upon ordering. The shrimp is super clean and fluffy, the flavor is perfect...I am literally in love with this dish! We also tried the family chicken meal, which came with chicken, rice, beans, chips, salsa and freahly made tortillas...ut was good as well. The chicken was spicy and the flavor kind of reminded me of mole...with a slight kick. The staff was very sweer and fast. The restaurant was very clean, sanitizer was available as well as patio seating. I can not wait to go back for more ceviche! Yum! read more

I came here with the family yesterday around noon. We were recommended by a friend. Went we got inside we were greeted. It was a little small but luckily we found a table. They give you beans, chips, and salsa. Which are bomb. I ordered Large agua de Jamaica, Green Chilaquiles with 2 eggs. And they come with rice and beans. The food here is bomb, fresh home made. Will definately come here to try something else. Love it. read more

1st of all, the chips and salsa come with beans. ALL are delicious, from the home made salsa, the thick chips and the beans are some sort of deliciousness! They give you hand rolled tortillas with your meal. I ordered three green Chile plate, A+! My girl ordered the carne asada burrito, also A+! Great flavor, great price, great attention to your authentic mexican food experience! Thank you! read more

5 stars for the kitchen crew, non for waitresses I was there today waiting for ver 30 minutes and the waitress anticipating a good tip sat somebody out first , Restaurant business it's a balance food quality, and Cordiality Waitresses need hospitality training. read more

This review is solely for the menudo because thats all I come here for...and with that being said, this is the only place I really like buying my menudo. Its bomb diggity here! Luckily my boyfriend knows all the good hole in the walls in Santa Ana and this place you'd never think has amazing menudo. He first brought me here months ago and we havent stopped coming ever since. Its always packed on the weekends because of it. They sell other food too but I dont know how good it is. You can take your own pot and have your menudo served in that to take home. They give you chips, salsa and bomb beans! If you're a lover of beans like I am then you can definitely appreciate them. Theyre drenched in grease and have some chorizo added. We usually pay $18 and some change for two large menudos and one w pata (pigs foot). I highly recommend this delicious spot for menudo! read more

I want to let everyone know that I am ranking this restaurant for their CAFE DE OLLA (Mexican Kettle Coffee) and by word of mouth only. My coworker returned to work and wanted me to sample her cafe de olla. I was a little busy and kind of blew her off but she insisted so I tried it. Oh. My. Goodness. I want more! How could I have never tasted this coffee? So delicious just black. I've never had black coffee. I'm definitely going back for more. I understand that their food, particularly their breakfast is delicious ! I'll let you all know soon. read more

This place is the go to spot, authentic Mexican food, my wife and myself love this place! Food is great, service is great, pricing is decent, the only down fall is the size of the place and the fact that it can get busy so that's why we order in sometimes. I would recommend it during the week but not in the weekend since they get busy, four stars since the place is small and not all that great looking. read more

The cafe de olla (translates to Coffee from a Pot) is made to perfection, I just wish they had real creamer instead of powder. We've eaten here a few times and have not been disappointed in their Mexican food. I am happy to see their reviews improving. The food is good, tastes homemade. Yum! read more

The only thing good about this place is the coffee. My mom and I couldnt eat the rest of the day or the next day due to horrible stomach ache. Be wise of your ghetto resturants. read more

Good "hole in the wall" restaurant.. food was very very good.. the coffee was excellent... the only thing its small but worth the wait

I love this place!!! I came here with my family to get their menudo and that shit is booooooooooooomb. The rest of their food entrees are also good. The prices are incredibly inexpensive for What you get. One of many places that I will be coming back to.l! read more

Great tacos (carne asada), menudo, and sopes. Would definitely recommend this little hole in the wall for their tacos. Plus- the chips/salsa/beans they give out are amazing!!!! read more

Good food but service is horrible...the meseras have the worst attitude ever almost lost my appetite.I asked if they had pickled carrots or radishes (I'm pregnant)and she said no,them I jokingly said to my cousin I'll be back ima go to El Toro..and she shouted from the kitchen "well this is not a taco stand,this is a restaurant"like wtf bitch really first of all not talking to you,second of all most restaurants have that.Needless to say if u hate ur job don't come to work read more

Great tacos. The tortillas are of the highest quality and the meat is superb. Priced right.

This is legit Mexican food. The tortillas are hand-made, and I HATE beans BUT dam, their beans were simply amazing! Aesthetically, the place is not the best, BUT the food is definitely worth going to the heart of Santa Ana. The sopes, tacos, are just delicious, I am obsessed. You can see the cook over the counter, where you can see that they cook pretty healthy, and the food is more organic that any of your chain restaurants. If you want real Mexican food, TRY IT!!! read more
