not a fancy place, been going to mexico for 29 years and this place is authentic mexican cuisine we will definitely come back here!

Steak gordita

Skimpy on the meat full of grease. I don't recommend this place overly priced for what they serve to you.

Chicken burrito suizo

Great tacos and burritos here. The place is small and quaint. The chips are good and the guacamole and salsa is fair. It seem like you should order at a counter, but someone will come and bring you a menu. Then when you are all done, you have to go up to the server at the register to pay, oddly enough instead of the server just bringing the bill. The tacos were authentic, tasty and as good as any other place in the area. The burrito was bigger and loaded with more meat than some of the other local restaurants.

Nice little neighborhood Taqueria in Westmont near 63rd and Williams (east of the Harvest breakfast place). The food is good, services is friendly and helpful, and the prices are about right. We arrived just before the Friday dinner rush and were promptly greeted by our server who gave us some chips and two salsas (one red and one green). Both had some heat - especially the red. When my dad struggled a bit with them, the server brought over a bowl of mild salsa. Very thoughtful... I decided to get a carne asada gordita, and two tacos (lengua and cabeza - tongue and cow head). The tacos were tasty, especially the lengua, though they were a bit sparsely filled compared to some of the tacos I've had in the area. The gordita, at $2.99, represented a good value - nicely filled. I'm looking forward to trying the sopes, huaraches, tostadas and tortas in future visits. I used to come regularly to Taqueria el Pulpo which used to be at this location. I think the food is comparable at this incarnation - quite good. Our server was fantastic - she took the time to answer multiple questions about the food despite covering all of the tables by herself. If you liked Taqueria el Pulpo, you'll definitely like Taqueria El Ranchito. If you didn't get a chance to try el Pulpo, now's your chance to check out the new place.

A more mild salsa

Excellent friendly service. The food is amazing. You can't just eat one taco they're too good. I will definitely be going back.

I was thrilled with their fresh veggies and their salsa. Everything was very tasty. I had a vegetarian torta and pico de gallo on the side.

It was my first time there and the place looks just like in the photos! It had a very cute and…read morecolorful vibe. The hostess was super nice and friendly. We had a reservation and were seated right away. Our server was super attentive. I ordered the cucumber margarita which I thought was a 10/10. Very refreshing and you could definitely taste the alcohol. I then tried the mango one which was also good but the cucumber one was better. I was bummed to not see cochinita pibil on their menu as I could've sworn I had seen it on another Yelp review. I ended up ordering two tinga tacos with rice and beans. The tacos were good but the rice and beans were just meh. The rice was bland and the beans tasted like frito lay bean dip. Their chips were freshly made which make them taste that much better. Their guacamole and salsa were both super yummy! I recommend both! The ambiance was there especially once the dj showed up and started playing all the jams. I look forward to going back and possibly try something different from their menu. Overall, I recommend trying this place out!

The buffalo chicken is our favorite, great flavor. We saw the chicken wings which looked like fire, but haven't tried them yet. We like the decor, great vibrance.

This place is a winner!…read more I am surprised that the place is not packed on both times that I've been here. Parking is easy, the place is clean, the service is friendly and efficient, and the prices are very reasonable. Now about the food, I've tried: STEAK FAJITAS- one of the best I've had. The steak strips are big and tender and the vegetables are fresh. I also love the side of rice and beans plus the tortilla. STEAK BURRITO- my son devoured this. It's packed with everything good. QUESABIRRIA TACOS- Perfectly amazing. STEAK TACOS- the tortillas are filled with flavorful meat and all the fixings. Their margaritas are outstanding. They serve them in plastic margarita glasses but that doesn't take away how good they make the drinks. The chips are fresh and the salsa is spicy but delicious. I will definitely come back, no doubt. 'Til next time!

The parking lot was empty walked in and we were greeted right away, would you like a table, booth or a spot at the bar? We chose a booth, but the seating surfaces looked like they had seen better days. Our waitress gave us menus and asked if we'd like to order drinks. For the three of us we ordered up two coronas and a tequila sunrise. We looked over the menu and ordered up our choices, pork enchiladas, chicken fajita and a shrimp cocktail. For a Sunday evening I expected more customers. The bar had six customers and we were the only other customers. The pork enchiladas were fine but just ok. The shrimp cocktail for the price was ok too. The chicken fajita was nice too, but some chicken strips stayed a little too long on the grill. Our waitress was great, she checked in on us several times asking if there was anything else. Dessert how about churros, just plain, sorry can't do it. Ordered flan, nice presentation, good taste. Maybe 7:00 on a Sunday is a off time. We'll have to come back again and try some other choices.

We celebrated a friend's birthday here at 3:00pm for happy hour, and it turned out to be a…read morefantastic experience from start to finish. One of the best surprises for anyone with a gluten sensitivity is that all of their happy hour drinks are gluten-free, which immediately took the stress out of ordering from the separate menu. While the menu does not explicitly mark items as gluten-free, the staff is extremely knowledgeable, and we discovered that a great variety of happy hour options can easily be made gluten-free. I kicked things off with the Roja sangria before moving on to the frozen trio. Although the Paloma was not freezing properly at the time, the bartender was wonderfully accommodating and expertly crafted a custom margarita using those delicious Paloma flavors instead. My trio featured the coconut agave margarita, a Paloma made with the classic margarita base in guava passionfruit, and a spicy mango margarita. For food, we started by splitting the dip trio, paired with chips that are safely made in a dedicated fryer. We also ordered tacos on corn tortillas, sampling both the chicken pastor and the traditional carnitas, and every single bite of the food was delicious. Although they do not carry any gluten-free desserts, the server offered the birthday girl one of her choosing. Between the accommodating service and the stellar food and drinks, the entire gathering was a huge success.

Love this place! The food is made from scratch in house, even the corn tortillas for the tacos!…read more Our waitress was super sweet and the place was lit just right for a calm and relaxing dinner. We loved the food and everything tasted so good. Will certainly come back.
