Average Mexican food at best. The salsa seemed fresh but way too much onion. $2 soft drinks is a bit high, and the waitress seemed more Indian than Mexican. Chipotle is a better deal. read more

They're pretty good, but have not gone here since they filled every seat in the house with unmasked guests and servers during the height of the COVID pandemic. Haven't gone back since then and don't plan too. read more

Delicious little Mexican place. I loved the asada burrito I had, I wish I was more hungry at the time and had sampled more. Another trip is in order and next time I will have a margarita! read more

It's been a month since I first discovered Rancho Chico and I've been here three times already. The food is always good and the service is always prompt and friendly. I think this is my go to Mexican place for sure. I've tried 3 different burritos and all were great. I'm trying to venture out to other parts of the menu, but the burritos keep calling my name! read more

I have to say this was one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to. I love their garlic shrimp. Their refrained beans are amazing and the shrimp where soo big. Prices where decent and service was great. Every time I go to Kissimmee I have to stop here. If you're in St Cloud don't forget to stop by. You won't be disappointed!!!! read more

I had the Mariscos Rancheros plus a Margarita. Wow!!! Great food, excellent service and wonderful atmosphere. This is a must do Mexican Restaurant! read more

Rancho Chico - Mexican Near Me - St. Cloud, Florida

I've been to Rancho Chico a couple of times, I think 3 times since I don't live nearby here. My aunt's family love to go here. This looks like a family-owned restaurant too. Overall, the food tasted really good, even the complimentary chips and salsa. I can tell the salsa is very fresh! I am normally not ecstatic about salsa, because it usually taste bland in other places, but I always look forward to the salsa here. Today, we arrived at 11:00am for Thanksgiving. They were open from 11:00am to 4:00pm, when I called. The servers were friendly. There is a lunch special and several of the items on the menu were a reasonable price, under $8 - $9 for a good amount of food. We ordered fajitas, arroz con camarones (rice with shrimp), and the cheese enchiladas. The fajita lunch special comes in two. The rice with shrimp was from the regular menu, and was PLENTY for even 2 - 3 people. The cheese enchiladas come in two. I like that the overall food was not super greasy either, so I could actually taste the flavors of the food. I wish there was more steak for the fajitas I ordered, but then again this was the lunch special. Our servers our nice and attended to refilling our drinks and asking our food was ok. I think the only minor thing was when providing the fajitas, we had to remind her and ask about the tortillas. read more

Not sure if a supply chain shortage but the chicken in the tacos was deli meat chicken lunchables style and the salsa with the chips tasted like water-downed marinara sauce. The search for real Mexican food is back on. read more

This place has really gone down hill. We first found it about a year ago and it was great!!!! After coming about 2 times..... The service was so bad.... We haven't been back. There were ants and Roach on the wall. Please use caution when eating here. Not what it use to be. Food taste weird too. read more

We are visitors here. Service was so-so due to busyness. Food was good . Time to pay the bill my daughter and I wanted to split the bill. Checks were presented and signed . Next day due to fraudulent activity at the local Walmart , I looked at my account and had been charged the full price of our meal and half the bill again . Phone calls to the restaurant was , manager @5:30., then she needed a couple of hours to review., i called back in two hours , her statement was she was to busy and would call at the nights end . Never heard from her. Went to the restaurant the next day to show the amounts and two charges . Again manager was so busy over talking me she could not grasp what had happened . Next I called the Card services and was assured I would be reimbursed. Fast forward two days . My daughter noticed that she had been reimbursed not me ... thank goodness it was family ... when/ if we return I will bring cash only ... this restaurant is not capable of electronic transactions .or CC 's read more

It is your standard Tex-Mex restaurant. Nothing special but nothing offensive. The salsa tastes oddly like marinara.

By far my favorite Mexican restaurant!!! I've been coming here for awhile bc I live in the area and each time I come I am never disappointed. Each meal I have is so delicious it makes my mouth water just thinking about it. They also give complimentary chips and salsa (mild is my fav) Service is always nice and the decor is unbelievable! Truly feel like I'm in Mexico and not just the dining area, the bathrooms are also super cool too which I guess is an added bonus. Basically, definitely try Rancho Chico!! read more

DELICIOUS Mexican food, gorgeously hand-carved chairs and booths, and wonderfully attentive servers. Combination plates are perfectly portioned for next day leftovers and desserts include favorites of fried ice cream and sopapillas!! read more

Rancho Chico - Margaritas Big!! - Mexican Near Me - St. Cloud, Florida

The customer service is very poor and special the one guy with spiked hair ( dint even feel like asking his name ) is rude to the guest, no smile no greet and interrupted me while giving the order while i came at the lunch time because they have a good variety of dishes. i have no idea how the guy can be that rude with the guest. the owner has to really look into the staff attitude towards there guest. not worth it anymore. read more

If I could give them a 10 for great service I would ...unfortunately I cannot say the same about the food it was dreadful . I'm Not certain what went wrong but it did not resemble authentic Mexican food we know and love ..enchilada sauce was generously spread across everything on our dishes and although this was the norm the problem was with the sauce ...someone added a bit too much salt to the sauce it was unbearable so much salt that makes you gag ...... My entire party had to politely leave all the food on their plates , pay and leave. The service were great but the food was absolutely terrible. Maybe we will give them another try later on but for now we are not going back anytime soon.... read more

Food isn't good enough to make up for the atrocious customer service. Servers are never friendly, and God forbid you have an issue. You're talked to like you're stupid and it won't get rectified. Too much competition to give them yet another chance. read more

I am a little disappointed with them. My wife and I have been coming here for years and for the most part the food has been good and the service has been good. However, lately things have taken a turn for the worse. The service has been bad. Very slow with order taking and delivering food. We ordered a queso and it came out after our entree. It was disappointing since they have really good queso and that is the reason we came here. We were in for dinner before this and they now have a mariachi band who goes around playing next to the tables. They were so loud you couldn't even think. We will be taking a break from here for awhile to see if it can get any better. read more

I have been staying in St. Cloud for a week and I am an HUGE Mexican and margarita fan. This place is by far the best place I have had. The margarita was amazing and the chips and salsa were super fresh. If you like queso this is the place!!! The portions are very big and you get what you pay for! read more

We ordered take out. Carne asada and super nacho with ground beef. It was all delicious! The next day I went back and reordered their carne asada bc it was that good. Our order came with chips and salsa (free) - the chips were good but the salsa was a no for us. Regardless everything else was delicious. This will be our go-to Mexican spot in St.Cloud! read more

Only gave 2 stars because we had a very sweet waitress, the food took forever we waited over an hour for our food and every meal was messed up, we were an hour away from home and watched people that came after get food before us, we were right in front of the kitchen, the chicken is super dry and hard to eat we wish we just went home and ate. read more

Lunch Carne Assada was really good and well served. The fajitas were very tender. Service was quite fast/good. If around that area, you should check it out. read more

Went for dinner the other day because I wanted some Mexican food. The service was quick not that busy at all. I ordered the chimichanga with chicken and rice. My food was ok nothing to rave about. Part of my chimichanga was soggy which made it not that appetizing. The rice was ok and the beans didn't have much taste. My husband had some meal called chicken Mexicana it was ok looked more like chicken stew, I tried it but didn't care for the taste of the sauce. Overall service was good, food was just ok I will try a different restaurant next time. read more

Rancho Chico - Chimichanga with rice and beans. - Mexican Near Me - St. Cloud, Florida

The atmosphere is everything you would imagine an authentic Mexican restaurant should be. I so enjoyed just looking around at all of the beautifully colored carvings. The server was fast, friendly and knew what he was doing. We never had to ask him twice for anything or ever had to ask for refills. It's sad that we are impressed these days when people actually do their job well. Anyways it appeared like they were all that way. We had two of their new 'bowls'. They were very good and there was just enough between both of us to have lunch for one the next day. And they gave just chips and salsa right away. The chips were the perfect combination of crunchy but not too thick. I would definitely recommend that you go there. I know we will go again. The only fault I have with the place is their bathroom. It was clearly redone by them and it was not a very good DIY. read more

Went for dinner this evening, arrived at 5:50 pm was greeted and seated right away. Waited a few moments, ordered our drinks and queso. Finally those arrived, we then placed our order. After waiting for 45 minutes, are food still had not come out, finally went to find some one after two tables that came in after us received their food. The excuse was the computer went down (never communicated to patrons). While sitting and waiting for 45 minutes the people behind us proceeded to get drunk and started getting really loud. Finally, we had enough and went to ask if our food was ready if not please cancel the order. While standing there, it was put up, we asked for it to go. When we got home my husband was missing the taco of his meal, and mine was missing items as well. The manager does not care about the customers. Definitely will not be going back. read more

I have tried to like this place. I have eaten here twice in person and once as take out. I give up. The burritos are sad, the tacos are soggy even in person, and the queso is melted American cheese. I will take my business to Los Cabos closer to Kissimmee. Thanks but no thanks. read more

This place is a disappointment.. if u want real Mexican food avoid. We ordered fajitas and they came in looking like Mongolian beef.. tasted of teriyaki.. waiter actually admitted the chef is Asian and puts teriyaki in it lol.. anyway there is no salsa verde here .. go somewhere else read more

Sadly, in a town with as few quality restaurants as St Cloud this restaurant has severely gone downhill. I always order the Mexican Pizza for an appetizer which is served on fully filled huge plate. The huge plate arrived with a saucer sized portion. It served one person rather than the table as an appetizer. For $10 I commented to both a waitress and two waiters who simply shrugged their shoulders. If you dare, go with a bankroll and expect to leave hungry. Once a great restaurant which now cut corners beyond your wildest expectations. Our weekly trips there have dropped to none. Fortunately they are not the only Mexican restaurant in town. read more

Very good food, clean restaurant area, friendly staff and prices are fare. Good family atmosphere. I will be coming back!! read more

Yummy food. The fajitas are amazing and margaritas on point. Will be back next time I'm in town

Better version of Taco Bell , how you call Mexican food a crunchy taco? Far away from authentic Mexican food .

Very fast, friendly service. They keep the refills coming, soda, chips and salsa. They are one of our favorite Mexican restaurants around.

These guys off for the closest to authentic Mexican food in the area. I'm from Southern California and have lived in Texas and I have eaten some pretty good Mexican food. If you're living here and you're from the West Coast and you miss your Mexican food, these guys will help fill that void Your iced tea is not fresh brewed. It is absolutely disgusting. read more

Service is good but the food is not great, I have a tortilla soup really good I also order some chicken taquitos from the appetizer menu and it was awful this is my 3 time trying this place unfortunately not by choice and probably my last one to bad is really close to home. read more

Pulled chicken was dry and salsa and jalepenos for some reason were not spicy. I got the supreme nachos and hardly had beans in them. I will def try again just Incase it was a fluke. read more

Usually excellent but fell out of grace. What happened! I asked for hot salsa and normally the waitress has one on the tray but tonight there was none made so they took a mild salsa and poured in hot sauce and I mean a lot. Sent it back. They forgot to put the cheese in the chili relleno, it was dry and seemed to be like an omelet with a pepper inside. Now, I realize there was no sauce on it either. I should have sent it back. My bad. My partner ordered ginger ale to drink and it was flat. Just another bad night at a St. Cloud resturant. read more

I so wanted to like this place. I hope it was just an off night for me going there. It started off great. We arrived at around 3:45pm and it was packed. We just knew we were going to have a good time. We were greeted as soon as we entered and taken to a booth. Angie brought us chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. Brittany our waitress was over within 3 minutes to take our drink order. We both started with water. The menu is quite large. We both went with a comb plate. Me with the two tacos and one enchilada and the hubby with the 2 spinach enchiladas. He asked to switch out one for an avocado enchilada but was told he couldn't. Oh well. Both dishes came with rice and beans. As we were waiting for our food I asked for and ice tea.It literally took her 17 minutes to bring my ice tea. The tea tasted carbonated. Not what I thought. When the food arrived it was cold, not just mine but also the hubbys. The only thing hot in the plate was the refried beans. I had gotten one pulled beef taco and one chicken. The chicken was hard to chew and had no flavor. The beef was just as bad. The hubbys outside was hot because of the sauce on the enchiladas but cold in inside. The restaurant itself was nicely decorated and clean. The bathrooms looked clean and well kept. The staff was very polite and handled the crowds good. The another problem which was not the restaurant's fault was we were sat in a booth with someone behind us who knew the people across from them and they were talking extremely loud and decide to start throwing things at each other. And these were adults not children. I hope to return and have a better review. read more

This is a decent Mexican restaurant. I am not a fan of salsa it was a little oniony for me. I had the chicken quesadilla it was really good. Juciey and full of flavor. The server could have been better. Had to ask for salsa more than once and when asking for a fork they acted bothered that we were asking read more
