" Not my first choice for Mexican, but the menu did have some interesting items. The food was good and the staff were friendly, but the wait time was hard to overlook. My burrito was tasty, but I've had better elsewhere. I might return, but not any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" The highlight of my visit was definitely the service. The staff were friendly and efficient, which made the long wait for food a little more bearable. I ordered the carne asada burrito, and while it was tasty, I expected it to be bigger for the price. Overall a solid dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" The quality of food was excellent, especially the tacos which burst with flavor. However, the wait for food left something to be desired; it took quite a while, and I was really hungry at that point. Still, the flavor makes it all worthwhile. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been back to El Ranchero several times since first discovering it, and every time the food is fantastic. The authenticity is really refreshing, and I feel like I’m getting a taste of home. I highly recommend trying their homemade tortillas—they're some of the best around. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here on a whim after hearing about it. While the ambiance is cozy, the food fell short of my expectations. I requested spicy, but it was rather mild. Service was friendly enough, but the long wait for the food was frustrating. I might give it another try but not immediately. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love this place—I mean, everyone raves about their tacos and burros. The flavors are strong but last time I went, the food was a bit greasy and my burrito was soggy with the sauce. Guess I might just need to stick to tacos next time. Service was fine; nothing to complain about, but also not memorable. " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first trip to El Ranchero, and while the food was authentic, the service was lacking—our waiter seemed overwhelmed. The portions were alright, but I expected more given the prices. Definitely a mixed experience here. " (*Curated Review*)
