Absolutely amazing food. The BEST guacamole ever. Don't pass up the Tacos al carbon de carne asada, so tender and the seasoning is just amazing. A MUST try for the Post Falls area! We will be regulars here!! read more

great food! there was a lot of great food provided by the staff. The staff was super great. They were really helpful for anything we needed.

Friendly staff! Always remember a familiar face. Large menu & big portions, local favorite!

My husband and I ate there over the years. Then another management took over and the quality of food dropped. Lately, I decided to stop in and give the food another try. I was pleasantly surprised the food was good and the quality was good. The service was great. I actually met the new owner and he seemed very nice and concerned. I could tell he knew how to run a good restaurant. The only food item he kept from the old management was the Pico d Gallo that had chopped cabbage in it. read more

Absolutely amazing! My family and I were trying to find some good food as it was almost 9pm we found this location and went immediately. It was already 8:40 and luckily they offered us togo and to sit outside (as they needed to close) the staff was extremely sweet and even brought us water in togo cups outside! And the food was huge!! I highly recommended this place! read more

Rancho Viejo - Shredded Beef Nachos - Mexican Near Me - Post Falls, Idaho

Won't be coming back.Thirty five dollars including tip for a soda (no refill offered),one Tostada 'La Grande' which was quite small and one cheese quesadilla is way over priced. Food quality on par with Taco Bell,which is right down the street,BTW. Service is okay. Post Falls is seriously lacking some decent restaurants. Bye Bye R.V. read more

I bring my family loves it!! Great food, atmosphere and staff! They had a mariachi band tonight for the grand opening. Lots of fun!

If I could give this place less than one star I would. The food was hideous. The servers confused my diet Coke with a regular Coke, told us the hot salsa was the mild....ouch. My boyfriend and I ordered the fajitas for two. It had steak, pork and chicken. The steak and pork were inedible and the rice was oily. It was obvious the meat was not cooked fresh that day but heated up from days ago. We had one large margarita and two Cokes. The two kids had a kid's dinner and the other a chicken enchilada with rice and beans. The chicken was bland and tasteless. Our bill was over $130. YIKES!!! We will never return to the restaurant and would highly recommend you stay clear. read more

Would definitely recommend. They work well with kids. Delicious food, great environment, wonderful service.

Just had dinner at Rancho Viejo and met the owner and his wife the food was awesome plus great service. We will be back soon!!!

Truly phenomenal food and service! Owner took the time to introduce himself, and check in food! Truly outstanding and will be my go to Mexican place! read more

I have eaten at the one in Hayden, Idaho and the one in Post Falls, Idaho and this one a couple of times and this one has never gotten my order right once. I especially like the one in Hayden as they have lunch specials. So I will not eat at this one unless I have companions who want it. I will put this one at the bottom of my choices or will select menu items easy to check out at the time. read more

We went back for another visit. Again food service and adult beverages were outstanding. Way more than anyone could eat. Fair and reasonable prices. The restaurant is very clean and the new owner takes pride in his restaurant. He walks around to make sure his guests are happy and taken care of. read more

I ordered the spinach enchiladas and really enjoyed them. Great flavors and not too much food. The others in my party liked their food as well. The server was friendly and checked back regularly. The credit card machine was not working so it was lucky we had cash as well. read more

The service was good, however I was disappointed with the food. I felt that their lunch prices were quite high for what we were served. I had heard that the restaurant was under new ownership and the food had really improved. Sadly, I found that in our experience, that was not the case. read more

This place has amazing food and service! I frequent often with family and friends. I love the guacamole table! The salsa is amazing too. I'm giving it a 4 star, and honestly think it should be 3 stars for the price of their regular sized guacamole (not table guacamole) just the small salsa sized amount is $8.00. The table guacamole is $12.00, so their is no point in ordering a small size for four bucks less. That's way too expensive for the quality and size. It almost tastes like it was blended too, not very good! Other then the absurd price of guacamole it's amazing! read more

If you order the "wet Burrito" and the "Enchiladas" You will get the exact same thing. At first I though ti was a mistake until the second time. The enchiladas are literally a wet burrito with a single flour tortilla. read more

Very good food, but VERY EXPENSIVE!! Our last meal was 2 veggie burritos, 3 Ala Carte chicken tacos, 2 beers n 2 drinks for $85 bucks! Only 2 people old enough to serve alcohol-rest of staff are minors! We love the food, but not at their prices-we will never go back!!! read more

The atmosphere and music is nice. I came for lunch. Service was fast and accurate. The owner made the rounds at the tables and solicited feedback. That is a huge plus for me to see an owner that cares. Chips were warm and fresh. The salsa served, even the hot one, was lacking much heat. Same for the food. It was good, no doubt, but could have been a bit more flavorful with additional seasoning or a little heat added. I understand that I am in northern Idaho so the recipes may be adjusted to suit local taste. Overall, I was pleased and will be back, albeit, I will bring my own favorite hot sauce from Central America. read more

I vowed never to come back here. I received a gift certificate and had to use it. The prices are just ridiculous. Dude it's Mexican food. The cheapest food to make. The salsa takes like someone dumped chili powder in it. I had a couple shredded beef tacos. I think the shells were premade from a box? Both tacos had a couple tiny pieces of cheese on them. I purposely ordered ala carte because it was $12 for 2 very mediocre white people tacos. At least white people tacos have some cheese. If you know you know. read more

Service is terrible. Shown to a table then wait forever to get your order taken. Food is the absolute worst "Mexican" food I've ever had. Even the free desert was terrible. I felt ashamed making my kids finish their food, so I didn't. Do not go there. read more

At first I tried to call ahead to place a take out order. Unfortunately, the phone kept ringing. I decided that with it being Fathers Day and many businesses are short handed that this could be the reason. When I arrived, they had a sign up saying exactly this. No worries. My first impression was that it was clean, and the staff was professional and doing everything they could to keep things moving. I was approached by Chris and he took my order and double checked it (I had written it down at home), which I appreciated this to make sure that it was correct. I may have waited no more than ten minutes. We ordered the #2 combo and a Kids taco meal. Both portions were generous(along with a big bag of chips and salsa and extra enchilada sauce. The meal was delicious and we look forward to dining there. Chris, thank you for explaining why the phone wasn't answered and taking the few extra minutes with me. My husband was very happy with his meal. S. Ashcraft read more

Rancho Viejo - Combo #2, being enjoyed by my husband. - Mexican Near Me - Post Falls, Idaho

My food was absolutely delicious and flavorful. It came to the table so fast. Also there were 4 people that came to check on us. I've never had my corn tortillas grilled and so soft and flavorful. It was amazing! I ordered the Tacos Al Carbon de Pollo. Beware...the large beer or SUPER large!!! read more

I'm torn on what to rate this place. This was my first visit here and I feel the experience was mixed. The location is beautiful on the inside and presents a traditional Mexican restaurant and cantina. Wood carved booths and colorful artwork really help set the theme. Our server was new and it showed but she was extremely nice and tried very hard which for me is a plus. She consistently checked on the table and made sure we were taken care of. My dads food order was messed up and they did overcharge him but we were able to get that corrected before paying. The problem we both had was the food. It was all spice and no flavor. Which is sad because it looked delicious but once you got past the spicy heat is was bland. We didn't even finish it or take any leftovers home. I wouldn't recommend this place for food at this time. Perhaps for drinks yes. I also want to note that when we visited there was only 2 other tables being served so it wasn't busy. read more

Thank you Miguel for your great service...Great food...and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. Looking forward to taking shots from the Bull ...Cheers. read more

Rancho Viejo - Mexican Near Me - Post Falls, Idaho

Very family oriented. Excellent food at reasonable prices. Great selection of alcoholic beverages. Miguel Karen and Stephanie are the best.

Sign in the entrance asks for patience due to staffing. Perfectly understandable right now. Plenty of servers stopped by; our issue was the food prep. Chicken fajitas should never be served in a puddle of oil (the entire bottom of the iron plate had at least an eighth of an inch. Secondly, chimichanga has always been deep fried to a crispy finish; this time it was incredibly soggy. Extremely disappointing that someone would allow both of these dishes to leave the kitchen... read more

Omg. Tried this place for dinner. Ordered the chicken enchiladas. Some of the worst Mexican food I've ever had. Dry tasteless chicken. Sent Mr straight to the bathroom. I had waitress take them back and bring me just cheese this time. I couldn't eat more than a couple bites. I will never be back. Post falls idaho, your Mexican food is trash!!!! read more

Seriously, I SHOULD GIVE 0 starts, but I am forced by app to give 1 star! My son & I ate or should I say DIDN'T eat, except chips salsa and a side of 12$ quacomole last tonight, and when I say it was a HORRIBLE experience, let me say the servers were polite, it's the OWNER/Mngr MIGUEL could use some business courses on HOW to run a business (his ego is likely unteachable, because I tried & wasted my breath)! The 25$ plate I ordered was SUPPOSED to be Diablo Prawn dish, & a 9$ side chili relleno. BOTH were AWFUL! I politely asked the manager who was walking by, "Did u change ur sauce?" He's said, "no." I said, "Oh well, it's REALLY super sweet & not spicy AT ALL." WELL, HOLD ON TO UR SOMBEROs when u HEAR HOW this OWNER MAKES his SAUCE (by his admission)! W/KETCHUP & TAPITIO! IN a 25$ PLATE that he's SO proud of. (& they leave the tails ON Prawns which forces one to dip their fingers inside the sauce to pull tails off. DIABLO sauce is SUPPOSED to be made w/DIABLO PEPPERS! Mushrooms being the ONLY other ingredient in the dish were NOT edible cause seriously WHO eats mushrooms W/KETCHUP?! Not the worst of it. When the waitress came & asked if I'd like a take out box, I said we'll, no, as I really didn't like it, after having eaten only 1 bite." She says, "Wait, let me get a manager. The owner/manager did NOT offer 1 dime off bill! He then said he'd changed the entire menu (as a new owner), & he just jokingly says, "Oh u can just add some hot sauce to it." Then he proceeds to ARGUE at table OVER 20 minutes about COST of his restaurant business & liquor license and how he has to pay his cooks, but he's there cooking in the morning. THE EGO on this owner was off charts! He's like, "Well, u could order the $18 tostada. I'm like, "I CAN MAKE THAT at HOME for a few bucks!" It's kind of funny because he kept saying," Oh, u can check my Facebook. " I have lots of good reviews. I'm like, FB, u can just delete or block somebody. You're not getting the reviews u should be getting, because this is horrible food, & you're very rude. I would not come back! People often WON'T complain for fear of spit or worse in their food! They often just don't go back! IF a manager TRIES to make concession w/the customer, one MIGHT give a chance, but after arguing with this man for too much of my life & proceeding to have him make racist remarks about white people, not knowing good food, or hot food, which I WANTED spicy, or that he can't please everyone. I said no, I wouldn't expect you to, but I WOULD expect u to take the cost of MY meal off $35 for my food, which was awful, & I couldn't eat. I said I'm not paying for all that, & left. He then to take a photograph of my son's license plate. We called the police to let them know that this man-made racist remarks and we felt uncomfortable, & left w/o paying for all which I've NEVER done in 60 years! We found out HE had called the police on us! He's charging California prices in Idaho, where the minimum wage is $7 an hour. Give me a break. He deserves to be shut down with his attitude. My son called his Mexican friend and said. "Hey, do you know any Mexican that cook w/ketchup? He's like, "God NO!" Well, this guy claims he's from Jalisco, Mexico, so he should cook real mexican food, BUT he's cutting corners! He needs to go to college & take a few business courses, as the first rule of business is "the customers is always right even when u don't want them to be right. There's no Mexican place to eat other than Taco Bell. He was telling me about Taco Bell shocked that they had long lines just down the street. I'm like, yeah, Taco Bell's not great, but it's affordable, & u KNOW what u're getting. I shouldn't be paying 25$ dollars a plate for 6 prawns in ketchup! I could go on but let's just say as a MINIMUM an owner/manager should start or at least say, "I'm sorry, EVEN if they don't mean it and those words NEVER left Miguel's mouth. Save your pennies, and don't patronize this establishment read more

Horrid food and the manager Miguel is a jerk....Dont go here. I complained about the #3 taco and enchalada....had nothing in it, no flavor or spice....just horrid read more

We came in with our family of 6 for Cinco de Mayo. We arrived at 530 pm and were told it would be 45 min wait... we ended up leaving at 7:15 after being left outside in the rain waiting for a table. We were told we were next many times. When we asked the hostess why the group of 11 that arrived after us was seated over us the young hostess started yelling and being very disrespectful, it was a horrible experience. We eat there monthly. Unfortunately we won't be returning. I do not recall experiencing such rudeness before. Always a nice manager. But when he the owner sat the 11 top group over our group and being treated so horrible for asking why, we left. read more

Amazing authentic Mexican food! Awesome service! The owner is very nice and was working just as hard as everyone else! Love the atmosphere and feel! read more

While visiting Post Falls I came across this restaurant. I ordered fish tacos on the first night and loved it all, except for their chipotle cream that was a little bland but still worked. The rice, beans and the tortillas for the tacos were delicious. Second night I ordered a carne asada salad, now, this one I was a little disappointed with. Flavor was good but $20 for lettuce and meat does not sound right. I'd suggest adding a little of rice and beans underneath all of that lettuce and maybe it'd be a fair price. Overall great taste and service. Will definitely visit again when back in the area. read more

First off I'd like to say the servers were awesome! The owner is a complete ass. He admitted that his salsa is Topatio and catchup. Gross! He also said he had to change the quality of the food to match the client's. What an ego! We use to go to this restaurant because the food was good. It has hit rock-bottom. Don't waste a penny at this disgrace to mexican food! My wife told him the only thing keeping him open is the bar! We will see how long that last! A once good Mexican restaurant has hit the garbage dump! read more

Used to be our go to restaurant however after discovering that the servers don't get the credit card tips, we may never go back. I raised 3 kids working in a restaurant and we survived on tips. For Rancho Viejo to steal money from their servers is absolutly inexcusable. I serious doubt that most patrons areeven aware of these practices. read more

Every Tuesday my family tries a new mexican restaurant in Post Falls until we find our go-to taco place. This was only week 2, but Rancho Viejo easily blew (last week's) La Cabaña out of the water. At each place we get two margaritas, a kids meal, and two entrees (one of which is vegetarian). Rancho has more flavor in their meals and more alcohol in their drinks. One kid gobbled down his meal amd wanted more it was so tasty. I think he got Huevos Rancheros, which is not a kids meal but was split between two kids. read more

Service and food was great tonight! We LOVED the fresh guacamole and also the atmosphere of the place. We will definitely we back!
