    Asda taco
    Ted R.

    Very good authentic Mexican food. We had asada burrito, asada tacos and ground beef tostada. All served hot and great salsa. Good service. Great for lunch or quick no frills dinner

    Taco Plate - Carnitas chosen.

    Despite the very broad, expansive menu that greets you at the counter, Tacos El Rancho manages to promptly serve fresh, quality meals. Walking in the door (a drive through is also available) you face the daunting task of choosing from a large, wall-mounted menu board. Not only are the expected Mexican fare options offered, but one can also enjoy burgers, fries, and traditional American fast food staples. Plenty of frozen treats - shakes, malts, soft-serve cones, sundaes - can be enjoyed as well. The beverage choices are plenty and include Mexican favorites for those so inclined. The folks working in Tacos El Rancho were very efficient. Orders are taken at the counter, but your food is delivered promptly. "Real" plates and silverware are used and the entire dining room was immaculate. Along with your meal, two different sauces, one red, one green, are provided. One unusual thing about the establishment is that the drive thru "pick up" window is actually located across the dining room from the ordering counter - thus the servers end up scrambling across the room to hand off the drive-through orders. Regardless, the amount of cars in the drive-through line while I was there tells me it works just fine. I ordered the "Taco Plate" which includes rice and refried beans along with three soft tacos. My meat choice was carnitas. The tacos are comprised of two soft corn tortillas, the carnitas (in my case), white onion, and cilantro. A wedge of lime and two radish slices adorn the tacos. The carnitas were very tasty, not greasy at all (as some can be), and were securely held in place by the fresh tortillas that did not fall apart. The refried beans, topped with a sprinkle of cheese, were good and not salty at all. The rice was also nice - loose as it should be - and a nice accompanying side for the tacos. The excellent staff here managed to clear and clean tables immediately. Impressed with their hard work. Return visits are in our future.

    Really tasty and authentic Mexican food! Bonus that it is super close to our house! I was surprised that it wasn't super busy when we went in for dinner. Very clean establishment.

    So this Mexican restaurant is right down the street from our house and has become our go to when I don't want to cook. They have been absolutely wonderful to us and they don't even know it. We live in a very small town and I hope it always stays this way. This little restaurant will cook up hamburger patties for my dog, Val, make sure that my tacos are on corn tortillas and not flour knowing that I will get sick. The staff that works there are just wonderful. It is always busier than busy which is a good thing. The inside is a little dated and I like it. that way! It reminds me of the Mexican restaurant that I grew up with. this restaurant is just absolutely perfect and I don't want anything to change about it.

    Taco plate with 2 asada (couldn't resist before taking the picture) 1 carnitas.

    Recently discovered this Mexican restaurant and I'm so thankful we drove by it. I've been searching for really good, authentic Mexican since moving here last year from CA. It doesn't disappoint! We ordered at the drive through and ate our food down the road at the river. I got the taco plate- 2 asada and 1 carnitas taco- the tortillas are perfectly cooked and taste amazing and fresh, the meat is authentic & had great flavor!!! Tacos are on the smaller size (palm of my hand in size) so order more because I wish I had ordered more- delicious! It's all I've been looking for as far as a street tacos go. And washed it down with a glass bottle Mexican coke- YUM!!!! Can't wait to come back and get more. Craving it now!

    We ordered 2 burgers, and chicken nuggets. We sat in the drive thru from 5:26-5:45 -- they finally came out to ask "what did you order again?" .. 3 people behind us got their food before we did. My husband finally went inside to see what happened, and they were serving other people that had walked in way after we had been waiting. And said "they had simple Orders" we HAD burgers and chicken nuggets! They hadn't even started our order by this point. We asked for a refund because our two year old was getting fussy and hungry. They didn't refund the tip or even apologize at all. This isn't the first time they have messed up, I just don't leave reviews unless it's THIS bad. Receipt shows time stamp of how long we waited before asking for a refund.

    First time there and the food was so good. I'm going back today to try other things. It's hard to try other things because the quesa birria tacos were so good I'm tempted to get those again.

    Solid Mexican spot, the asada burrito, carnitas tacos, rolled chicken tacos, and red salsa hit the taco shop craving every time.

    The food is good but I'm over the rude service. Tried to give them so many chances but just not worth it.

    Came here for lunch with friends. Place was empty. Great atmosphere, cool artwork, comfy seats,…read moreall the good sort of things. Right away we noticed service was gonna be an issue. While we were waiting on friends, the apps we ordered early took forever. This was a theme that would continue through out the afternoon. The food took forever. The tables sat around us ordered after us and were done eating by the time any of ours arrived. They forgot one of the burritos ordered and tried to claim it's because they ran out of that specific meat. It was way too slow to run out of anything. Server was nice, but the kitchen and food was just so insanely slow. Despite having to wait forever, once it showed up, it was okay. Not great, not terrible, just ok. I'm not saying I won't come back, I'm just saying I know what to expect. There are better Mexican restaurants in Caldwell, and a much better one in Kuna that I'd rather go to.

    Too hot on sauces ! No real great menu items , says American food on sign but I saw nothing…read moreAmerican foods. We truly wanted Mexican foods and went because of good reviews but it it really a bar . I'm sure the drinks were great , just wasn't a good experience , sorry ! But if you like hot very spicy Mexican small dishes it would be perfect for your pallet.
