    Clean parking lot
    AmberAyame T.

    We stopped a few miles away to charge and saw that this place had really good reviews. We were starving so we got a chili relleno dinner, a cheese enchilada dinner and 2 orders of vegetarian nachos. They gave complimentary waters w lids and they were big which we really appreciated. The young guy working the counter was very helpful and friendly. The parking was easy and they're open later than a lot of other places. The food was all delicious! We would def stop here again the next time we have to pass through Modesto.

    The food was delicious definitely recommend  very pleased

    The food was amazing very delicious. We ordered green chicken enchiladas, tacos de asada and asada nachos. Everything was delicious.

    We stopped here based on the Yelp reviews and I must say it was better than what we expected. Service was exceptional and food was delicious and authentic. We actually think the food is way better that other Mexican restaurant in the area. Definitely a little hidden gem in Modesto. We'll be returning soon.

    This restaurant is an amazing example of a family business doing it right! Every visit we have had, we have enjoyed everything we ordered. The staff is pleasant (owners kids helping mom and dad!). I think it's quickly becoming our favorite place to go in Modesto!

    Since I began eating here nearly 6 months ago I haven't really eaten at other Mexican restaurants! Rana's has become van one of my faves. Today I had their pozole! It's quite impressive to me that they cut up the pork in bite size pieces. The flavor was totally on point! They provide you an array of garnishes. I have tried lots of their dishes and I've never been disappointed! It's a family owned restaurant not a chain, one where the family is always respectable and kind to the customers! I hope if you go you enjoy it as much as I do and I drive a few miles to come when I do.

    Sunday breakfast. Very tasty, and not too spicy. They also give you freshly fried tortillas chips to eat with any salsa from their salsa bar. Pozole was full of meat. Theses are both large bowls. Will definitely be back and try something new too. Family style restaurant, nothing fancy but good. Oder at the counter then sit down.

    Food was delicious and affordable. The staff offers fast, friendly & efficient service. The place is clean. Restroom is clean and well-stocked. Will be coming back here again

    The enchiladas and crunchy tacos are amazing, and I really admire that it's a genuine family-run business. Friendly and welcoming service. The corn chips are the thick, quality kind--not the cheap ones, which shows they care about the details. I highly recommend this place!!

    Shrimp cocktail with all the fixings very fresh and delicious..

    It's been a few years since I've visited El Coco Loco and I realize I should have been frequenting…read morethis restaurant more often. This gem is tucked into an industrial area, but you'll be happy once you have found its hiding spot. The last time we visited, we were in more of a celebratory mood and feasted on whole fried fish and a molcajete filled with an assortment of meat, seafood, and cactus. This time, we were in a bit of a rush, so we ordered tacos. Started off with guacamole and chips. Guac is very fresh and they mix in a little tomato to brighten things. Tried the Tacos Baja - both the shrimp and the fish version. These come with a heaping amount of filling and two tortillas- you can easily make two normal sized tacos with one taco. Nice crispy batter and well seasoned with an orange crema you can drizzle on top. Also tried the Tacos Gobernador. Sounds like something Arnold Schwarzenegger would order. These are super cheesy and shrimp filled. They're really good but it's a heavy meal. Everything we've had here has been delicious and I love how wide and varied the menu is. Highly recommend.

    We went there because the pictures looked amazing and the reviews were good. It wasn't horrible,…read morebut not great. We ordered the crab boil with shrimp, sausage and crab and corn and white rice There was very little, thinly sliced sausage in the bag. We didn't get the corn, instead she gave us potatoes. My son is type 1 diabetic. Potatoes are not good for him to eat. She brought the corn on the side. Which was fine. The rice was not white rice. It was good rice. It had a few veggies in the rice, it was good. It's wasn't what I ordered and that type of rice doesn't go with the meal. I think the flavor of the crab boil was most disappointing. The flavor wasn't very good. I thought it was more salty than flavorful. I haven't tried other things on the menu. So maybe the other food they serve is better. Idk.

    Wow, I was so impressed with the uniqueness of this place! I've been to conveyor belt sushi places…read morebefore but this is the first time I have seen individual hot pots with accompaniments coming to you on a conveyor belt! What a great concept!! Everyone is seated with their own individual hot pot plate to build their own individual hot pot. (Don't worry it does not burn). You choose your basic soup broth, choose the meat you would like, and then start grabbing things off the conveyor belts! It not only is a fun concept, you can get quite creative with how you build your hot pot and choose just the things to your liking. I was amazed that they had very authentic Chinese ingredients to choose from - wood ear, enoki mushrooms, bok choy, different kinds of noodles, fish balls, Napa cabbage, octopus, and lots of different varieties of selfish, plus much much more! I chose the traditional broth and they even had Chinese red dates in it plus wolfberries (sometimes known as Goji berries) in the broth just like what I grew up with The service was just ok, since it was our first time there we had to ask a lady to show us what we were supposed to do. She was helpful, but the servers don't come around very often. That said, the plates and dishes clutter up really fast and they don't come around very often to clear the dishes, for which I would have taken a star off. But my experience there with conveyor belt hot pot was so nice that I'm leaving it at five stars. What I liked best besides the authentic ingredients, is that you can become quite creative to build your own hot pot to your own liking.

Love having my own individual pot and personalizing my broth and spice level. The meat is fresh (1 meat at a time), and the DIY sauce station. Price is reasonable too when you go at lunchtime. Waitress is super nice too.

Added rice and garlic noodles and sweet potato fries. Service- 3 stars. Our waitress (blonde old lady) was mid. Firstly, she didn't get our order correctly since once we got our bag of crab, we had to ask where our sweet potato fries were and the garlic noodles. It came way later. Second- not once did she come to our table and asked how our food were. We came on a Saturday around 3 pm so place wasn't that busy. Combo 3- was pretty good. For 4 people, we finished everything in the bag. Sausage had a little spice and was better than other crab bag restaurants. 5 stars Didn't like our plate was just a small little paper container that didn't hold much. They don't leave the bucket to your table so basically have to leave any shells out on the table. Not a deal breaker but other places I've been to, leaving a bucket for excess shell stuff makes our area around our paper container cleaner. 3 stars Overall, experience was fine but not worth 5 stars. Noticed when we left, the two girls working as the "hostess" were busy talking to each other than saying goodbye or saying "thank you for coming". 3 stars

I tried the kids' chicken strips and Cajun fires-also legit. The staff was young and energetic, they were very helpful answering all our "first timer" type questions.

Get here before 5 PM and you won't have to wait long, good luck anytime past that as they seem to be the only game in town. I almost forgot: a freaking robot-server-thing sang me happy birthday.
