I wouldn't recommend these tacos or this place at all. The only real bonus is that they're open until 3 AM, which is convenient since most places are closed by then. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. The restaurant itself was so messy...paper towels & food droppings all over the floor, dirty tables, and a salsa bar that was both picked over and cross contaminated. The food tasted below average; honestly, I'd rather pay an extra dollar at a street vendor for tacos that are much fresher and more flavorful. We decided to give this place a try simply because of their late hours, hoping it might become a new late night go to spot. Instead, we left disappointed. Next time, I'd rather grab a burger and wait to satisfy my Mexican food cravings somewhere better the next day. Ironically, the best thing we had was the kids' meal! frozen chicken nuggets with fries and a juice box. That pretty much sums it up. read more

It was my first time here and it did not disappoint. I got the cabeza tacos and it was delicious. The meat was so juicy and flavorful with generous amount of toppings. They also had a sauce bar and lots of seating. This is the perfect spot to hang with friends late at night since it closes at midnight. The service was fast and efficient since the food came out right away. Highly recommend read more

Tacos El Rancho - Tacos Near Me - Westminster, California

If you're in the Westminster area and looking for delicious, no-frills tacos that taste like home, Tacos El Rancho should be at the top of your list. I stumbled on this store and was looking for some tasty authentic Mexican food. The tacos are packed with flavor -- from tender carne asada to juicy al pastor -- all served on soft, fresh tortillas with the perfect balance of toppings. Their salsa bar is a must-try, with just the right mix of heat and freshness to elevate every bite. Overall good service with friendly staff and takes your orders quickly. It took awhile to get my food but it was tasty. I got their 2 taco plate with a side of menudo (beef tripe soup served with tortillas). Overall prices are fair and their portions are generous. read more

Wow, I'm so disappointed. Today is New Years Eve and due to the rain our plans are canceled. I was craving asada fries for a night in and immediately thought of this place because we have eaten here many times before and were left satisfied. Unfortunately, the quality is no longer here and neither is the price. You get a small amount of asada fries for 15 dollars without tax, and this food tasted old! The fries were mushy yet hard ..which screams they aren't fresh and have been sitting out. The salsa verde tasted like the cheap salsa from the can. Tasted like they poured straight up jalapeño juice to make it more watery, it was horrible! I understand the economy we are living in is bad, however this is old food served with fake and not fresh ingredients. This is NOT WORTH IT. read more

Reasonable price for big portion and great, friendly & fast service. The place is clean and spacious with seats/tables on the window side and service/kitchen on the other side. Overall the food is good for the price and they do have other dishes besides burritos. read more

Starting off with the service. The service was friendly. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted and promptly attended. It is my first time here. I ordered the carne asada fries. Good amount of toppings, good serving. It lacked cheese, or maybe it wasn't spread out properly. There were too many fries with nothing on it. The asada tasted good, it had good flavor. The place itself was very clean, everything was stocked. There was multiple people present. Will most likely be returning, to give another item a try. read more

Service is good, taco Tuesday prices are good. Only thing that is keeping me from giving this place a higher rating is two things. 1. The salsas could be better. They aren't spicy even if you get red sauce. It feels as though they have no flavor. 2. The lemons/limes always have seeds in them and get into your tacos. For me, I'd rather go to a place with tacos with really great salsa for taco Tuesday, but I can't hate on this place too much. They load the tacos up quite nicely. read more

5 !! I had the Al pastor burritos without the beans with everything on it for $12 and it was amazing. The seasoning was done just right. The store has a bathroom and provides unlimited lime, picked carrots, and chopped onions which I added to my burrito. I also asked for each of their 2 liquid salsa and they put it in a saucer for you. I smoked the burrito there on the spot and ate tons of their picked carrots and onions that I put as toppers on my burrito. Super solid food and I would visit for their Tuesday specials. read more

Went here for a late night meal and it did not disappoint. The service was very straight-forward and the food came out pretty fast. Prices were also very reasonable, if not lower than the prices I see in Santa Ana. We ordered the buche quesadillas and California burrito. The amount of meat they gave us on the burrito was insane. At least 3 to 4 scoops of carne asada. read more

This place is located near La bodega store. This was my boyfriend's and I first time coming here. Since my boyfriend heard his cousin goes here and wants it to give it a try. Today, we got 9 tacos and we only got them for $1.69 since it was taco Tuesday today their original price would be $2.29. I love their deals here for the tacos honestly can save you so much coins. We also got taquitos as well since my boyfriend ordered it; I didn't know what to get. The tacos were very flavorful, delicious, and meat is very tender and easy to chew. My boyfriend would rate his tacos a solid 4/5 and I would rate it a 5/5. I also love their red & green sauce it is the BEST sauce that any taco place should have in their taco restaurant. My boyfriend and I thought the taquitos were alright it just needs salt for the seasoning, but the it was crunchy, smooth, and crispy. The lettuce and other condiments were delicious. We both would give this a 3/5 since it lack a bit of seasoning. They have their condiments station which you can get on your own with a small bag and the condiment station has limes, onions & jalapeño mixed, and carrots. The service was fast & employee is very nice and friendly. The store has a great atmosphere, spacious, and clean. There is plenty of parking, but it is very small. I would definitely come back here for their taco Tuesday if I want a good taco. read more

I love the texture and flavor of their carne asada burritos. Just a touch of beans and their salsa puts it over the top. Customer service is great! read more

I just spent $72 on tacos and I do not regret it. They are about $2 each and they have all the different types of meats: asada, al pastor, pollo, carnitas, buche, cabeza, lengua, and chorizo. I had to get a variety to try them all. My favorites were the carnitas, al pastor, and lengua. They all came with cilantro, onions, sauce, and a pretty good amount of meat. The tortillas are also pretty good. The guy who puts them together are pretty quick. I just wish they gave you more sauce when you ask for it. The line can get a little long here since they can only really do one at a time. I do want to come back and try their menudo which looked oh so good. Pricing is pretty low. They do charge $.75 if you use your card. read more

We ordered 7 tacos de lengua and 3 tacos de cabeza, 20oz of Spanish rice and 20oz of frijoles de la olla (whole pinto beans in broth), and a large horchata. So disappointed, as a native Arizonan passing through, I expected more from you Cali! I'll start with what was good: the horchata was amazing! Wasn't too sweet and tasted homemade . What was ok: the tacos were a good portion, they were garnished with the perfect amount of onion and cilantro. Although the meat was tender and had good flavor, it lacked seasoning. Nothing a little salt couldn't fix. The whole pinto beans were cooked well, not over or under done; however, again...no seasoning! People, a little salt goes a long way! What was bad: the rice!!! Whyyy??? I'm a rice snob and pride myself in my Spanish rice making skills. This rice was dry, bland, and had hard bits of rice throughout. As if it was left cooking too long and the bottom layer burned onto the pot. I'm only in town for one more day and hitting up more taco shops around town. Tacos Él Rancho will not be one of them! read more

Love this location! They have a great Taco Tuesday deal (1.49 each) and I ordered 7 tacos for $10-11. It was such quick service and there was a lot of parking. The workers are very nice and their food was very fragrant and fresh. They have extra lime and sides on the bar near the counter. There is a small free for using card so bring cash if you can.

My partner and I got food poisoning here! We love tacos and try so many different food trucks before and were fine, so I was shocked to have this happen at a sit in taqueria. When we went it was 11pm, we got the lengua, asada, pollo, and pastor. When I tried the lengua it seemed off to me, but didnt think too much about it at first, but then my stomach started to hurt shortly after eating and I regretted it. It was painful. My partner's tummy started to hurt later in the night and we had trouble sleeping, and were feverish. So disappointing this had happened. Service was okay, straightforward, ordered our food, they gave us what was needed. Inside was a bit dirty, and run down. read more

Tacos El Rancho - so sad on my dinner today. we told him no beans no rice on our burritos. came home all we got was beans and rice. - Tacos Near Me - Westminster, California

I've come here twice because I don't live in California, however, I'm giving 4 stars. The tacos are at a price of $1.99 which is good for lots of us lol but sometimes I'd rather pay a little more for some great tacos. I've only had their tacos of asada, cabeza, buche, carnitas. The tacos are small, yet I don't really like that they add more onion than cilantro, I like my tacos to have a fair amount of both toppings. The salsas are good yet I don't like that they add a little too much for my liking. I love the asada and the cabeza. Buche was okay today and carnitas was a little not to fresh this time. For drink I had an horchata, and it's great. 1 star off for tables not being clean other than that, it's a decent place. Service is good, everyone there is friendly. read more

Tacos El Rancho is located on Goldenwest, near Trask and I can gladly say this is one of the best joints for tacos and some quick and authentic Mexican cuisine if you're ever in Westminster. They serve Burritos, Quesadillas, and Tacos along with Mexican soft drinks such as Jarritos. There are also your typical sides and toppings such as onions, limes, salsa verde, etc. Quick and friendly, your food will definitely come out within 5 minutes if there isn't a long line. I ordered a Chorizo Burrito with everything in it, along with a Salsa Verde. There are beans and rice in the Burrito but you can ask for none of those. read more

We've been to Tacos El Rancho in Westminster about 8-10 times in the last year. Every time we've gone, the inside is unkempt and dirty. There's trash on the floor and the tables need to be wiped clean. The food is just ok but the service leaves much to be desired. Every time we've gone there's at least three males working there and they all appear angry. I don't think we'll be going there again. read more

Simple and straight to the point! $10-14 per person! The place doesn't have big thrills nor something outrageous about it. Simple. The customer service, also simple. The food is on point The burritos are simple as well but heavy and meaty! There is an option to add cheese but no option to add guacamole nor cream cheese which was kind of a downer but not a deal breaker! The condiment bar has carrots, limes and onions in which you can take in a bag or put on a plate. The drinks are HUGE. Don't pass on the carnitas, carne asada or the cabeza! There is also no option for chips but you should be fine without it simple at one of its best forms! read more

$1.49 street tacos or $1.09 on Tues (you can't get lengua on that deal) $3.99 quesadilla $7.99 meat burrito They give you a good amount of meat in these street tacos. The quality of the meat is decent; I've never gotten any gristle in the carne aside, chicken, al pastor, etc. My husband got the meat burrito and managed to eat the entire thing in spite of him saying he was starting to get full half way through. It's just too good to stop. The pickled carrots are a nice touch but have no kick to them which I was bummed about. The tacos came pre-salsa'd when our orders were placed. The flavor overall is spot on though, I wouldn't recommend adding more than how it is plated. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the mood for good tacos at a rock bottom price. The staff was really nice and the establishment was clean. I did not use the restroom so I cannot attest to the quality. read more

I happened to be in the area and did a quick Yelp, chose the closest Taqueria which led me here https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tacos-el-rancho-westminster-2?select=LdBPSFaT8DgFCLEcyqVLcQ The food or at least the Tacos I ordered were served almost as fast as I ordered them, so all the meats they offer are precooked, my guess on the plancha behind and then held in steam trays, https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/tacos-el-rancho-westminster-2?select=zVCvki4MjfjMkH6BOHg_KQ the corn tortillas that were out of a bag seemed as if they were dipped in oil and tossed on the plancha to heat up, either they heated them too long or the tortillas were on the old side as they were a bit hard. *Sorry for the blurry photos!!

So delicious and open until 3am on Saturday! You order at the counter and can either take the food to-go or there are a few tables inside the restaurant. The menu is very simple and straightforward, but lots of meat variety. The line if there is one goes by quick (it was even busy at 1am. Food is super cheap for how delicious it is too. I got two asada tacos, a carnitas taco and an al pastor taco. Carnitas and al pastor wasn't as flavorful as I was expecting, but the asada was delicious. The garnishes are great too, the red salsa has quite the kick so watch out for that if you can't handle the size. There are tons of parking spots so it easy to access. read more

I crave tacos at least once a week and I'm glad we found this spot. Quick, easy and tasty. I ordered 8 street tacos {2 carne, 2 lengua, 2 carnitas, 2 pastor) with everything on them (onions and cilantro) and inhaled them all. I'll definitely come back and order the carne and pastor (carnitas was a bit bland in flavor compared to the other meat selections). Although this place wraps their tacos in the usual aluminum wrap (and bc they're street tacos, it's quite a small package), when we opened them up at home to devour, the double layered corn tortillas were still soft unlike other taquerias where their corn tortillas are a bit dry and hard to swallow. Husband and I shared a carne asada quesadilla (loved the white cheese they used; salty, nutty and oh so meaty). He ordered a carne asada burrito with everything on it and it was quite filling. We prefer the red hot sauce over the green but that's just our preference. We'll be back! read more
