Visit was good today. The service was spot on and very attentive. The fajita tacos were good...a touch salty, but still good. The restaurant was a little bit loud with their music, but it was ok. 4 star visit today. read more

The service not good at all from the beginning there's no one to sit you down to your table or sign saying to seat yourself. Took too long for my food to come. The other thing it was my eyes were hurting because of the smoke like you will see smoke everywhere. That comes from the kitchen. Drity tables everywhere so get ready to clean your own table. read more

This is my favorite place to get breakfast in Irving. The food comes out quick, the servers are friendly, and the food is delicious.

The service here is terrible takes forever to get a drink and the food here sucks, it's cold and had a hair in my food. Manager refused to talk to us and said would not remove charge off my bill read more

Rancho Restaurant - Hair in food - Tex-Mex Near Me - Irving, Texas

Just go somewhere else... anywhere else really Used to get somewhat decent service here but slowly going down hill, we just spent an hour to get 4 tacos, an enchilada plate and 5 chicken nuggets. Only reason we stayed is because as we were getting ready to walk out the food shows up and we were genuinely starving... should have just gone to whataburger. read more

do not order from this restaurant! pricey and simply can not get the pick up order correct! called to inform them the order was incorrect and young lady was rude!!!! don't waste your money!! read more

First off our waitress Nancy was wonderful. She walked to the table with a smile on her face. She was attentive and helpful as this was our first time there. Food was good. Salsa was good, chunky and a little warm but good. Chips a little thick for my liking as were all the items with corn tortillas, but all still had a good taste. Did not like the sour cream chicken enchilada at all. DH got fajita's and they were very good the beef was tender and the chicken and beef both had a good flavor. Guacamole was also good and there are a lot of places in Irving that it is not. Both DH and I not a fan of the rice. Will put this in our rotation. There a so many Mexican food places in Irving that my take months. read more

Really good food the service is great the caldos are amazing The drinks over at the bar are great they're Michelada's are amazing

I read some reviews on here, but wasn't certain what we were going to find when we went here on a Wednesday night. First you must be aware that every Wednesday an Elvis tribute artist named David Allen performs here. As odd as that sounds (Elvis and Mexican food) it works. The guy is a very, very good entertainer with a great voice that sounds just like Elvis, so forget the stereotypes. The other is that the food is good, Tex Mex: red sauce, beef an tortillas. Our plate of nachos was HUGE, and salsa and chips outstanding. It's in an older part of Irving, but the funkiness only adds to the flavor. Check it out!!!! read more

Rancho Restaurant - Elvis tribute artist David Allen entertains every Wednesday night. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Irving, Texas

Horrible service never had an issue until last night took forever to get menus and was rude about it

The absolute worse service. Slow to get your orders. The staff doesn't check on you. Flies everywhere too. They don't even deserve one star. read more

I came here for the first time with my aunt. She knows the people that own this restaurant. They are so kind and love to make you feel good while you are here. The environment is great. The chips and salsa are bomb! I ordered 2 tacos barbacoa and one sope of el pastor. Delicious!! I loved how fresh it was and its authentic mexican food not tex mex. Come on down and enjoy their great food and try a michelada while you are at it. read more

Rancho Restaurant - Tacos de barbacoa and one sope el pastor - Tex-Mex Near Me - Irving, Texas

This place has the best breakfast burritos and the salsa simmering hot adds to make it even tastier! I strongly recommend this place for breakfast order ahead is advised because it does get busy . I've yet to try their Lunch daily special. I'll keep you updated! read more

Best taco spot in DFW!!!! Always my go to when I'm in the area...Tacos, Rice, Enchiladas, are all favorites and the salsa verde sauce to add the heat. read more

I gave 3 star because they took a long time to bring the food, and where i was seated i looked up and there was a missing ceiling tile on top of me. Oh and before they brought the food i asked the waiter if i could have more chips for my salsa and i never got it. The food was alright to my taste, the coffee was kinda warm and not hot. read more

FIRE Mexican and Tex-Mex options :) great customer service, and drinks from the bar are always yummy! Cowboys fans too!!! Whoot whoot, we will be back! read more

Love everything about this place! The food is amazing! Best Birria tacos in town, if you have not tried them you are definitely missing out!! read more

One of the worst meals I have had in a long time. Flies all over our food throughout our meal. Could not eat because of the dam flies. Our nachos were burnt. No one came by to ask how was our meal. When I told the cashier about the flies she just looked at me with that stupid look. Worst worst food ever. The fajitas meat was NOT fajitas meat, I am afraid to ask what was that meat. If you want bad food, then this is your place. read more

El Rancho is one of the worst places i have been too. There food use to be good at one time but now its seems like they dont even try anymore. There food is dry and sometimes un-cooked. The last time a was at El Rancho I had to wait almost and hour to get my food and I had only ordered 2 flautas with rice and beans, and it wasent even done right, i dint even finish it. Also one thing that got on my nervous was their waitresses were very rude, they asked for my order by asking 'what do you want girl" WOW what kind of service. They had alot of attitude and when one of my family members asked what one of the plates included she said " Dint you read it on the menu, because I dont know" How are you not going to know what the restaurants serves. Well enough said, i would save my money! read more

Great authentic mexican food! Prices are good and portions huge. Very large dining area, great for family and kids. Has live entertainment some nights such as an Elvis impersonator. Staff if very nice but can be a little in-attentive however, if you need something just let them know! The bar area is well-stocked. Specials on drinks vary but we have always had some good deals during happy hour. A great menu full of your favorite authentic mexican with a few 'tex-mex' staples for those who like that. read more

This is some of the best Mexican food I have had, and I love Mexican food. They always have a daily special, that comes with an enchilada, or taco, or something along those lines, with rice and beans for $6.99, well worth it. I like there quesadillas, cooked with either steak or chicken, either is good. The beans or very well done, black, or refried and I think you can get pinto. There chips and salsa is the best, you will fill up on those before your meal its so good. read more

I visited on a Wednesday evening and my service was excellent. Elvis wasn't there that night. The ladies were extremely nice and didn't move at a snail's pace. The fruit margarita was large and yummy! I thoroughly enjoyed it. The chips and salsa was off the chain! I over indulged. The chips weren't hot, although I wish they were. I had the carne asada and it was well seasoned. HOWEVER, that steak was as tough as a gangbanger straight outta Compton!! I was like, geez, I needed a chainsaw to cut it and my teeth superglued down just to chew it. Will I go back...yes, I'm sure they have good food that's suitable for chewing:) read more

Rancho Restaurant - Carne Asada with refried beans and anothertype of beans, which was well seasoned. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Irving, Texas

This has one of the worst quesadilla. The cheese the use is super salty and after a few bites it becomes unbearable to finish. Some of their other foods are okay but I would not go here. read more

I definitely don't agree with the bad reviews! This place is awesome! All of the food is amazing! Everything we had was delicious. Even the chips and salsa was excellent. For an appetizer, we got some sort of combo platter. I had the Grande Burrito. It is huge! I ordered sour cream with it. It is only 3.95 and it could've easily fed my husband and I. He got the enchilada trio and loved it! The margaritas were delicious. Pull over, eat there, trust me. read more

The prices on the menu dont always match what they charge on the receipt. I had heard this from some friends before but figured they had just changed prices and hadn't yet updated the menus but this was month ago. so we had lunch here about 4 days ago and it was the same thing. when we went to pay we asked about it and they didnt tey to find any solution. the girl at the front had to call the owner over and she said she couldn't and wouldn't do anything about it. it was a difference of about $3 but I work hard for my money and it could be $3 per ticket but if they have 100 tickets a day then it adds up for them. they have good portions of food and it tastes decent but I wont go back. plus the lighting is terrible. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE. We try to eat at small/local places... and I've been to this restaurant a few times, but only got to eat there once. Due to the service. The hours on the door and Google states that they are open until 11:00pm. We showed up at 7:45pm. Didn't get menus until almost 8:00, then instead of greeting us, the waitress says "we'll be closing in about 30-45 minutes" we stated that the door says until 11:00, and she shrugged her shoulders and walked away. So we decided to just walk out. We will never return again. read more

A delicious family owned/run authentic mexican (not tex-mex) restaurant. I frequent this place at least twice a week if i'm being honest. By far the best chips & salsa in my humble opinion, and the queso is good as well. You can't go wrong with any of the tacos, or enchiladas but my favorite dish here is the bistec ranchero. They also carry a variety of beers and liquors but the majority of customers get the michelada. If you ever find yourself in the south part of Irving you would be doing yourself a disservice by not stopping here for a bite to eat. read more

Come here quite often when I need my Mexican food fix. Great food and even better salsa. I get the beef gorditas almost every time. Plus, My two year old loves the cheese quesadilla. read more

One of my favorite places for many years. Great tacos, fresh chips, and the best salsa ranchera in town. Enchiladas Mexicanas is also a great dish. Friendly staff, nice family environment. Give it a try! read more

I come here alot and the only reason I do is the food. The food is fantastic. The Service however is horrible. I have sat a number of times for hours waiting for food, refills, the check!!! The staff is more interested in talking to each other than servicing tables needs. If you come here don't expect fast or reliable service at all. read more

Agreed that the service is slow and wait staff is not too friendly BUT the food is worth it. Just go in expecting poor service and it is tolerable. I take many people here explaining this and they all walk out talking about how excellent the food is. Just go. read more

Great place to eat staff is friendly. Ordered and had emergency asked to place it to go ....lady owner was so rude and intoxicated.....lack of professionalism as a owner ....will only order carry out moving forward....food is great but needs attention in being respectful.... read more

Definitely was hoping for more even though I didn't have high expectations. Margarita with a cherry, overcooked chicken, and bleh rice & beans. Best advice, go somewhere else. Cheese sauce with green chili's and tortillas were the only saving grace. Not good. read more

I had come to order dinner and take home tonight. I have not been in for a long time. The only thing that stops me is their service, the food is great. I ordered, paid and waited about 20 minutes. I have not seen any food coming out. I was told, by the unfriendly soul that took my order, 10 minutes. I questioned the amount of time it was taking, normally about 20 minutes, and waited another 5-6 minutes. I then insisted she go check on it. I witnessed her going to the back and brought food out for someone else. I asked another server who I could talk to to get a refund. I was simply told "yes." I waited and saw her come out with drinks for another patron. I then went to a THIRD person, Veronica. This young lady is the ONLY reason I am not giving them a one star. Long and short Veronica took charge, got my food out within 3-4 minutes and sent me packing with a full refund. Kudos to this young lady, the other two should take notes. read more
