Food is great! On poit of fresh food, served right amount and seasonings! Service is poor, the waiter told me let me find a table and left, never came back for me & family, waited 15 minutes and cashier noticed we werent being seated and went to sat us down. Place is nice, chile con queso delicious! Please improve in waiter / waitressing because the restaurant is great is just poor in service!
Great place & great Rita's too ��������� I love the male waiters better tho, the female waitress there is not friendly, she not attended t9 you at all she will take your order & bring your food but then she goes M.I.A
We love that El Ranchero, staff very nice, good food & good prices. The green sauce could be better but red sauce good. Try the Chicken Mola off the hook.
Our first visit. Would not hesitate to return.
Food & service was spot on. Facility was clean. Loved this place.
By far the Best Carne Asada in Houston. Thick, and very, very tender. Great service also and love the hot sauce!!!!!!
Great food, best margaritas!!!! :-) best waiter is Luis!!!
A fine neighborhood restaurant with an enormous menu selection of really quality offerings. I heartily recommend!!
Such a great Mexican restaurant. Friendly staff. I wanted to tip everyone because they were jus so helpful. Tons of food for the money. Definitely a value in this day and age!
Okay so I come to Ranchero a whole lot. like a whole lot. Like multiple times in a week. And never once in all of the years that I've been visiting this restaurant have I ever experienced dry rice or Bland beans not once. The beef is always super tender moist delicious and well seasoned. Always I mean almost every time I walk into this place stuff is perfect I really appreciate their consistency. Keep up the good work my friends
We ordered the cheese enchiladas and a combination plate of cheese enchiladas and a taco Al carbon. Overall place was nice, had a good atmosphere. Food was good, not anything mind blowing but it’s a good choice for Tex mex. We will be back for their happy hour! Drinks looked great and they had the Astros on! Good service as well.
The food was very good and filling. The staff was excellent when I first came in. It did get busy so it took a little time for me to get my check. Which was fine. Finding the place was a little difficult as the lettering on the building was white and the building was white. It is in the south west corner and the shopping center.
Great Neighborhood Hang! More expensive than a year ago but nice to have regular, friendly servers and I think the food is getting better and more of it!
Recently visited this place after several years and food is still very good and authentic! Devoured the food before I took pictures of it, but did take one of the amazing Margarita!
This was our 1st visit and we will definitely be back, the food was good and the customer service was the BEST!
Everything was so perfect ❤ I'm speechless thinking about how perfect this restaurant is!
Went in for lunch on a Saturday with my 1 year old who skipped his nap!
Kid friendly. Breastfeeding friendly. Clean highchair. Immaculate restrooms. Respectful and attentive staff. Everyone was very welcoming and warm. The music was good Mexican love songs at a nice volume. Lightning is warm. Menu is in English. Staff is bilingual. Booths are comfy. Decorations are cool.
We ordered Sizzling Fajitas Mixed for 2 (but really could've served 4 for only $24!!). The food was packed with flavor. Honestly, it all reminded me of home. Will be returning soon!
This is truly a perfect Mexican restaurant. 🌟
I really like the food hear, portions are on the “Texas” size, and margaritas are really good. Service has always been good for me as well. A recommend from me.
Went here for a couple of drinks at the bar and the surf & turf burrito. Staff treated me good even though I got there about 45 minutes before closing. Drinks were good and the burrito was fantastic so 5 stars from me.
El Ranchero is awesome. My family and I love this restaurant and have been going here for years. I haven't eaten anything that wasn't great. The entire staff are friendly and courteous. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My friend eats here every week? She's on a first name basis. It's solid Mexican (TexMex). You aren't going to get gourmet food, think casual dining. But, you will leave satisfied. The free chips and salsa are delish. The staff is friendly, bilingual, Super accommodating and great at their jobs.
What to get: Stuffed Avocado with Fajita; Jalapeno & Cheese Bacon Wrapped Shrimp
Friend pick: Chile Relleno
First meal in Houston and wow. I had the chicken quesadilla. It was packed with flavor. Had the full size portion and it was like two quesadillas in one. Came with guacamole, sour cream and pico de Gallo. It was very fresh and full of Monterey Jack cheese. The service was quick. Will definitely be going back!!!
I had a great experience at the restaurant. The food was wonderful.The staff were very attentive. And it was reasonably priced I would highly recommend.
I Love this place. I go quite often. The food is Always Great! The Service is Always Great as Well. I Love the Raspberry Margaritas!
We used to live around the area and this place was our go-to! First of all, GREAT staff! Nicest, fast service, always smiling and attentive people. Secondly, I've never had perfectly crisped chips, with right amount of thickness paired with the best salsa I've tasted around Houston. Their beef tacos and enchiladas are my are my comfort food, while my husband's is the BEEF FAJITA (or they call it Al Carbon) that I definitely recommend (BEST FAJITA AROUND HOUSTON). Last but definitely not the least, they offer a very affordable yet tasty margarita, happy hour or not! This place deserves more attention and more tips for the staff! I would definitely drive just to dine here.
Had a really great experience when dining with my extended family. The servers were so kind and attentive. The food was incredible! Loved the festive atmosphere. This is a wonderful neighborhood gem.
Delicious Mexican food!! I had to take the rest to go since the portions were big. Our waiter was very attentive and kind. I ordered chicken Fajitas. There's so many options on the menu. I will come hear again. Great experience
My husband and I both give this place ALL STARS!! Chile, great, good, great mix drinks , amazing. We sat at the bar and Obi, the bartender was so awesome! He made the rest of my experience that much better! Thank you Obi.
