Tacos El Rancho: Reviews & Ratings

Tacos are 10/10. Whether it's pollo, al pastor, or asada you really can't go wrong. They are fast here, the service never disappoints. More of a hole in the wall but that's what makes it great. Simplicity is key. Consider this one of the better taco spots in the area.

Helping house sit for my family and wanted to get some food late night and saw this place was close by. First time i got the asada tacos and a pastor quesadilla! It was so good i got it for lunch two days later and tried the chicken and carnitas ! The meat all is very good and they do give you a decent portion of meat! Especially in the quesadilla ! The only thing that doesn't give it 5 stars for me is, is the small amount of rice and beans you get . And also the salsa is very mid. Not very spicy and very thin/watery both the green and red. The service is fast too. But overall would definitely recommend! Especially if you want something late night!

Open late. Great customer service. Unfortunately not many vegetarian options. Ambiance is chill. Good is always good.

I've been coming here for years and have always had good experience with the service and food. There is about 8 different types of meats so I normally get 8-10 tacos and a burrito. My favorite meats are the chorizo, asada, cabeza, and lengua. On Monday to Wednesday they close at 12am, but from Thursday to Sunday they close at 3am. Very few places opens this late so this place is one of my go to places especially late at night. The staff there are very friendly. I've never had an issue. The store itself isn't too big, but has a lot of seats and tables.

TLDR: fast service and they are open late night, but my tacos were soggy when I got home. Service was good and fast! They can be seen cooking and seasoning their meats on the spot, and making everything quickly. My only caveat is that my tacos were soggy when I got home. I don't know if it was because they were rolled in aluminum foil vs plated, or if because I said yes to salsa on them. They are open late, so I will likely return. I'll ask for salsa on the side next time.

This place was right across the street from my work and there was no way I couldn't not try it with a taco Tuesday less than $2 a taco! Inside, the place is pretty small but the service was quick and the food was pretty yummy... ordered 2 asada and 2 al pastor tacos... the meat was flavorful, the salsa was decent, and the tortillas were a little dry which was my only knock on this place Aside from that, for $8 it was a steal! I wish I would've come by to try more things, but I'm glad I got to try it before I left working at Norco
