Chili relleno - Tasted great. Small portion, but good value for just $7 a la carte. Carne asada burrito - Big portion, great to share. At $15, decent value. The server asked if we wanted it wet, with salsa on top, and we said yes, not knowing it would cost $2 more. We didn't particularly like either salsa though, so we would say no next time to the salsa. The complementary chips and salsa was really good! Quick service, good prices, and they honored my Dining Advantage voucher. :) read more

When Mi Ranchito closed down we had to find a new favorite Mexican place. Los Magueyes has stepped up to fill the void. The service is always friendly and attentive. We've never had a bad day there. The food is good with generous portions. The menu isn't as diverse as Ranchito was, but it does have some new favorites. I love their Picadillo! Fresh taste with tender pork and a bright cilantro twist. Not a fan of enchilada sauce so I was concerned, but tried it anyway. It's delish! There's a small patio to the side so if you want to get a little al fresco ambiance, it's decent. Their Skinny Margarita leaves a little to be desired...too much club soda. Everything else has been great. Glad to have an alternative that still has the small family friendly feel read more

This is a cool place. This is our second time here. The food is really good . I'm super picky on rice and beans and they are one of my favorites. The carne asada is very flavorful, the tamale was great, chips are fresh and the salsa is nice and chunky. Chammoy on the Michellada was the chef's kiss! It's not too often you'll find a place that uses it. Servers are great. read more

We bought trays of Enchiladas (Chicken and Cheese), Rice, and Beans for our annual Christmas Party. Prices were very reasonable, and the food portions were very generous. Restaurant employees were very friendly and helpful both in placing the order and when picking it up. They even brought it out to our car! All the food was delicious, and they didn't scrimp on the amount of chicken or the cheese in the enchiladas. Our guests all gave compliments on how good the food was! I was very pleased and would highly recommend Rancho Los Magueyes! read more

I have lived in Upland for over 20 years! I've been in this center so many times in so many places close by. A good friend of mine just told me about this restaurant this past Friday night. We were pleasantly surprised at this hidden gem. We ate here last Friday as well as today, Sunday. I made this review two visits in one! I wish we would have found this place much, much sooner!!! To start off for Friday night, we had the chips and salsa as an appetizer. You can almost never go wrong on this. I love their salsa, but I am allergic to onions, so I just worked around not eating the white onions and tried to have my friend eat more of those. I don't fault the restaurant for my onion allergy, but they do put so many onions. I still love the red part of the salsa. On the second round of chips and salsa, I asked for their green salsa, which I really love. It doesn't have any onions!!! To drink, I just had water, and my friend three Dos Equis XX. We then ordered our main courses. My friend ordered two ground beef tacos, and I ordered the simple bean and cheese burrito. He seemed to like his tacos pretty well. I really enjoyed my burrito. It was huge, flavorful, and tasted very well with the green salsa. Both days, we had great service from every worker there. Each man or lady who helped us also checked up on us very often. We appreciated their hospitality here. Every worker seemed that they worked really hard and enjoy their jobs here. The place seemed very clean inside and outside. We also were able to request watching our hockey games on the same television both days at the center bar area. We even appreciated that they put the volume up a little, so we did get some game sound. So when we came back Sunday for the second time, we definitely had the chips and salsa again. They brought us two red salsas and one green salsa. I was able to transfer most of the onions from mine to my friends. After a little while, we ordered the chicken tortilla soup and requested an empty bowl to share as it is a very, very large bowl! $15.95 is steep for paying for even a large bowl of soup. However, I knew if we were going to pay that much, it must be good. I have to say sharing was a great idea. The soup had a lot of flavor! Had a good amount of chicken, noodles, and even avocado!!! I also added some of my broken salsa chips in periodically to give the soup some more crunch! So technically, this ended up being $8 each to share the big bowl of soup. I think it was still a steep cost, but we thought it was still well worth it! Along with sharing the tortilla soup, we both had one taco each. We both ended up having one shredded beef taco each. The taco was very decent sized, and I loved putting the green salsa on it. I did appreciate the taco meat not having onions! There was so much lettuce and cheese left. It was like I had a free salad, so I made a salad by adding some tortilla chips broken up and some of the green salsa as my dressing! After this, we were both so full. I had water, and my friend had 2 Dos Equis XX beers again to wash it all down. Overall, these were two wonderful visits!!! We will definitely be back! I was so blessed to talk with one of the workers before I left for other suggestions for when we return. It's located in the center on Mountain Ave and 16th St in Upland by Upland Donuts, Legends, and the Hi Brow (formerly Bull Dog Pub). Stop in and give them a try!!! read more

I had there soup . But they forgot my side order of rice. Will order again. Need to check your order before coming home.

Great service. Excellent food. Hard shell tacos are delicious. Highly recommend. We've been here 3 or 4 times in the last month!

Our family likes Rancho Los Magueyes because the service has always been good and fast, they offer a wide menu to fit our family's needs, and it's close for a quick sit down option to relax on a weekend or weeknight. I think there may be "better" (always down to personal opinion by the way) Mexican restaurants in the area, but the value I personally see in Rancho Los Magueyes is their service and staff, good chips and salsa, great margaritas, and a family friendly menu that hits the spot. I feel like when you walk in they take good care of you, and the TV's and ambiance make for a good environment for a local spot. Always coming back! read more

Lived in Upland most of my life and somehow never heard or been to this place until today. Saw recommendations on a group for Upland so I tried it out today for my birthday. Quick, friendly service, had water and a margarita within a couple minutes. The full bar has plenty of options! The chips and salsa came out instantly, the salsa had a great flavor! Which is sadly rare now. We got a wet carne asada burrito and the 2 taco combination plate. Rice and beans are excellent and what I always judge first. Shredded beef was juicy and flavorful. Carne asada is tender and full of flavor. My fiance and I both loved this place and will be back! Portions are large, too! The wet burrito is HUGE. read more

I walked in tonight with a group of 9 and they had zero seating and were so busy because of the game. They were very calm and polite and transparent with letting us know the situation. We waited outside and asked for separate booths since that's all they had. They accommodated us very well and continued to serve with excellence service throughout the entire night. They had the restaurant staffed accordingly to the busy night and every single waiter/waitress/bods was on their game. Great service! Great Food ! Thank you Rancho Los Magueyes ! We will be back ! read more

We have been going to Los Magueys for about 20 years. loved it for big parties and special dinners, birthdays. the prices have gone up exponentially in the past 5 years. we went tonight and ordered a specialty burrito. It was not the same and now it is $24.99 with a cost of 3% if you want to pay with a credit card. we will not be back. the food is not as good as it used to be. so sad. read more

We've been coming here for years but lately it's been going downhill. Saturday night was our last night, sadly. A few small things that ended up being the determining factors. 1) the last 2 times here, I ordered the fried jalapenos. Menu states it's quantity 4 for $4. Each time I received 3. Saturday I mentioned it to the waiter than it only had 3 and he said "I'll tell the kitchen." A 4th one was not brought and a discount wasn't applied. Is it a lot of money? Of course not. But it wasn't handled at all. 2) My husband ordered a house margarita, menu stated $11. He was charged for a jumbo margarita for $13. 3) and the worst one... when we received the already high bill, it now states 2 different charges: one if you pay cash and a higher if you pay by card. Unacceptable. I've always put up with the mediocre service for the food and the ambiance but with how much it cost to eat out these days, I'd rather spend my time and money elsewhere where I don't feel taken advantage of. read more

Have always seen this place was headed to the good ole HI Brow decided to try something new. Football Sunday .. attentive service , very nice . The food was excellent.

Large portions of just OK food. Decent drinks. Tables good for larger parties available.

I ordered on the way home from an outing for take out. 3 burritos and a side of soup were $64. No salsa for burritos. Ordered corn tortillas, got flour. Soup used to be delicious, now taste like they added a can of tomato sauce as filler. Only 2 meatballs in albondigas. It's really just veggie tomato soup. I will say the taste of burritos was pretty good considering no condiments, really basic. Upon pick up I was ignored. Staff not pleasant at all. Have ordered from here and the taco shop on Euclid for many years. I think I'm done. There are others happy to have the business with better tasting food. read more

I enjoy eating here if when they don't regularly fail health inspections. SB county cited this location on 11/19/24 for multiple violations including "Hands Clean and properly washed, gloves used prep," "proper hot and cold holding temperatures," and "Food in Good Condition, safe and unadulterated." If you are a gambler, go for it. Otherwise avoid this place. Food is decent but not foodborn illness good, not even close. read more

Really feel like this is a hidden gem in the area. First time I ate here, it was an online order and I thought, not bad. They were kind when I went to pick up and encouraged me to come back. 2nd time, the hubby and I decided to go for a date and we enjoyed it. 3rd time, decided to take the kid and he LOVES the tacos. Love the chips and salsa. It's a great place to watch a game and really brings the community together. Can't wait for visit #4. read more

My wife and I came here for the first time a few months back. What can I say? Great drinks, great food, and fantastic service! We've lived in the area for over 5 years now and we're disappointed in ourselves for not discovering this place sooner! We've already talked about having a family night out here soon! We just went back for our second visit last night and it was even better than the first visit. The Cadillac margaritas are amazing and so are their fajitas! Everyone is so friendly and helpful, you'll love the service offered. Great atmosphere for any occasion, date night or even a night out with family.

Good service and good. Really like their chips and salsa. It's a neighborhood favorite.

The craving for GOOD Mexican food was strong today. After looking at all the pictures of burritos and nachos, I was set on this place. I ordered take out, though I really look forward to dining in as the staff was very friendly and the place felt welcoming with the aroma of good food in the air. To eat, we had the Cali Super Burrito with carne asada, wet with both red and green sauce. It was stuffed with plenty of meat, which I have to say was so delicious because it was seasoned and cooked with a little char, fries, beans, sour cream, and guacamole. This burrito was HUGE and very filling as it was shared between 4 of us. We also shared the Supreme Nachos with carnitas, which were also tasty and filling with plenty of meat and cheese, beans, and all the toppings. I appreciated the guacamole and sour cream being served on the side so the crispy chips didn't get compromised. I also have to add that the quality of the meat was very good because I did not bite into a single piece of chewy meat or fat. My toddler had the Cheese Enchilada meal that was a perfect portion for her, with a single enchilada, rice and beans. The sauce they use is very flavorful and not spicy. She went to town on her meal, especially loving the beans. I did not have to convince her at all to eat. We also ordered the Chile Relleno plate, which came with a beef enchilada and crunchy taco. I didn't get to try, but it was obviously delicious because the only thing left over were some chips and salsa. The salsas are also very flavorful. I asked for some of their hottest salsa and it was bomb! Got me sweating but didn't spice me out. It had a nice smokey flavor to it that I really liked. Overall, this place has great service, quality food, and presentation. The prices were very reasonable for all the food we got and the portions. So worth it! read more

This is our favorite place with a great atmosphere awesome staff the most delicious food and drinks.

The food is amazing, but if you want to be treated right you need to be the proper race. Went in with my wife, both Caucasian. Gave her name at the door and watched as they prepared a table for us inside. We were told it would be just a minute. Then, our friend came to join us. He's not Caucasian. He's African American. Everything changed. The table that they were setting up for us was no longer available and we were seated in the back corner of the patio by the trash can. The door to the patio that had been opened since we arrived, was now closed. It was freezing outside, none of us had brought jackets because we thought we'd be eating indoors. No biggie, back to the car for jackets. However, definitely went with the theme of the night. The food was amazing, though after it was delivered we never saw anyone again until it was time for the bill. Nobody asked if I'd like a refill of drink, nobody asked if the meal was okay. It's a shame, because the meal was good. But I don't want to eat add an establishment where I have to choose carefully who I eat with if I want to be treated the same as everyone else. read more
