" If you want authentic Mexican food, The Ranchito will not disappoint. Their carne asada is seasoned to perfection and the tortillas taste fresh, which is a big plus. I felt welcomed by the staff, which really enhances the experience. Looking forward to another visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend I visited The Ranchito, and it was an experience to remember! I ordered the fish tacos and they were incredible, the fish was fresh and the combination of flavors was delightful. Unlike other places, their portions are generous, making it feel like a great value. The staff was busy, but they still took the time to ensure we were satisfied. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations coming into The Ranchito, and I'm happy to say they were met! The tacos al pastor were juicy and flavorful, and I'll be dreaming about their green salsa for weeks. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere felt like home. Just a bit crowded during lunchtime, but that's a testament to its popularity. Can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about The Ranchito! The various Mexican dishes I've tried, especially the enchiladas, are always fresh and bursting with flavor. One thing to mention is that they often have a long wait time which is a downside, but once you get seated, the food and service make it worthwhile. Definitely a staple for anyone in the Pasadena area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last visit to The Ranchito saw more love! The chile relleno tasted just like my grandmother's. The portions are decent, and it feels like home when you eat there. The only downside might be limited parking and sometimes a noisy environment, but it’s worth the visit every time. Will return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Ranchito has consistency down to an art! I've been here many times for breakfast and it has never failed to impress. The ranchero eggs and fresh tortillas are my go-to, and they do not skimp on portions. Warm service also adds to the comfort of dining here. Always a pleasure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I imagined this would be your typical Mexican restaurant, but The Ranchito is something special. They manage to keep the traditional flavors alive while providing top-notch service. I absolutely loved the queso and chips. However, I found the seating arrangements a bit cramped. Still, the food is definitely worth it. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Mexican! " (*Curated Review*)
